01 Maierin Brooks Gerloff here in Aachen has lived since 1985 the American artist Janet Brooks Gerloff. During the preparation phase of an image, a stllie Intensltät lives in it.
"It takes also often very long until an idea matures, and then I need the time and the melancholy lonely Kelt of nature very".
In the Benedictine Abtel Cornelie Münster, their altar paintings reflect events of Easter. The artist developed his own emotional style, based on a simple colours and shapes. -Encounters with Biblical figures in the work of Janet Brooks Gerloff are simply painted biblical Historle, but they are evidence of the ability to set human drama in the image. "I want that today's man, perhaps more convenient and less dramatic or less elemental living, can identify somewhere too, because was of sacrifice, responsibility, but also betrayal and murder, are topics that today characterize the people."
Not strange veiled people are at the heart of their work, there are key situations of human existence, which tie them, so also the theme of Kaspar Hauser.
"I'm fascinated by the idea that he only made the experience of man becoming almost a grown man without that he had ever feel of the opportunity to act, even."
Pavel Kontny in Denver discovered her talent, led and led them. Oskar Koller in Nuremberg became a key figure for the development of the painter. He gave courage and humility you the artistic way. Perhaps their works convey therefore always a silent drama. Victor Hugo's words charakterlsieren the people and the art of Janet Brooks Gerloff aptly: the genius is a promontory that extends into infinity.
02. the deepest borehole Windischeschenbach. Here is not drilled for oil, but geoscientific research. But why was the bit used here?
"Rash for the site in the Upper Palatinate was a so-called suture zone; "a Sutorzone is a zone where, one must imagine - 320-350 million years ago here two continents virtually met, which have pushed here have, and this is a particularly attractive point to conduct their research for the Geosciences".
The main drilling rig to be created will have a height of 80 meters and a sound-absorbing cladding. Electric motors, powered from the public power grid, power the drilling rig. The main bore is to be driven to a depth of 14,000 meters. Thus, the tlefste hole of the world would be here. To achieve this ambitious goal, a 5,000-meter-deep pilot hole is running. The drilling operations running around the clock. The collected samples of a first intensive analysis are subject in the attached field laboratory. Further studies followed at participating universities. The continental deep drilling program in the Federal Republic of Germany runs over a period of 10 years. The cost of 450 million marks carried exclusively by the Federal Ministry for research and technology. Here the question arises almost the scientific and wirtschaftllchen objectives.
"Individually they could remove the points. To understand how the heat in the crust, how is it distributed, as is the rock under the high pressures over 2,000 bar, about 300 degrees, how is there the rock quasi in the saucepan a way as moving fluids gases and liquid Celts in the Earth's crust. This evidence hang on formation of deposits, also the Spannungsverhäitnlsse in the crust, keyword earthquake research, shall be examined. It is a large geological complex that is designed to help us better understand our mother earth."
03. Quadratestadt Mannheim so real Mannheim dialect sounds. The information is but confusing. Everybody that comes for the first time in Mannheim, Germany, has Schwlerigkeiten to navigate. It is so easy.
Mannheim is divided into squares? There are however no street names, like in any other city.
The square system oriented the two biggest in Europe from the Castle, by the way. Main axis is the Breite Straße, links are the squares A to K and right of L to U. The numbering is continuously after außenhin.
In the city centre, the street signs look like: the houses are designated with letters, numbers and house numbers.
Only in the Centre, there are squares. You have but also the form of rectangles, triangles or diamonds on, surrounded by a ring road.
Elector Friedrich the IV. Palatine laid the foundation stone for the city. On his behalf, Dutch architect outlined the plan of man Helms in the 17th century.
A century later, the residence town of elne experienced great heyday. Elector Karl Theodor was a great court, used arts and Sciences.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart played at his court, he lived in the square F 3.
The world's first car was built in T 6. The wife of the inventor Karl Benz made the first exit with this vehicle more than 100 years ago.
Ten years after the Foundation of Mannheim the Manhattan plan was designed in the new world, also by Dutch Architects.
Also here a squares-system, in which, however, In contrast to Mannheim, not the squares, but the roads are named. A metric principle of order in urban planning was carried out in Mannheim. It is the unique design of this city.
04. health care healthier, live longer, more active living - itself natural goal, we often lose sight in the Streß of everyday life. Unfortunately, to procure spare parts are difficult for the human body. Of course, everyone is well advised to do, to get his Gesundhelt, as much as possible and sporting exercises should start makes sense not only in the hospital. But the State also is required.
Of civilizational progress has indeed led to a longer life expectancy of the people, but brought also an increasing number of medical emergencies, particularly of heart and cardiovascular diseases, with which require a rapid and intensive treatment.
In the Federal Republic of Germany, a doctor comes to 360 inhabitants, 39,000 dentists provide dental care, and a hospital bed available is statistically every 90 inhabitants. The outpatient and inpatient treatment, drugs and AIDS are funded by health insurance contributions, which have to bear the insured workers and employers equally.
A drug law that requires long term tests and ongoing Qualltätskontrollen ensures the efficacy and safety of approved drugs.
To strengthen the responsibility of citizens for their health just tent-a comprehensive education about the dangers of nicotine and other drugs is operated. A mainstay of the German health care system is a comprehensive preventive and advisory concept. So can and should expectant mothers ten times a doctor before giving birth. Infant and toddler studies join.
The health insurance companies take over the costs of cancer prevention through early diagnosis. To combat the immunodeficiency AIDS, there is a special program that includes also an intensive international research exchange in addition to education and medical care.
The health system in the Federal Republic of Germany costs 200 billion DM annually. So that it can be financed in the future, the Federal Government has ensured now with reform measures that the costs don't go up. Medical care is not affected thereby.
05 could be they-flying lawn mower at first glance camper, who set up their tent. In reality, they want to go in the air with the help of flying machines, flying a little reminiscent of the pioneer days. Hang gliding with the help of a 20 to 30 HP of two stroke engine, attached to a frame of aluminum tubing and plastic tarpaulins - all together no more than 100 kilograms. Ultra lightweights from many countries to joint flights met on the German North Sea Island of Sylt. The fun is not very cheap. Between 12,000 and 30,000 marks, one must shell out for one of the flying lawn mower. But a petrol consumption less than 10 litres per hour makes the machines still attractive for many sports planes. Fly in a very original form - of the ultralight pilots swarm.
Bloody beginner without licence may also with these machines into the air. To control an ultralight requires skill.
The maximum flight height is maximum 150 meters. But even experienced pilots feel a tingling sensation in the stomach when they see a little aluminum tube and the foot pedals is in airy heights except your own legs. But then, you can enjoy the wind, which carries one to feel your own body's. to feel like a bird free and weightless.
