A wave of spontaneous Hilfsbereltschaft passes through the West German population. Many bring clothes and toys personally in the camp; Donate to refugees, who could take only modest holiday luggage in the West, because most have decided during their holidays in Hungary, no longer to return to their homes. Others spontaneously went to Budapest, as spreading the message of an opening of the Hungarian borders. A courageous decision by the Hungarian Government had made the Trek finally possible. These people left their homeland certainly not light heart. The rigors of flight, they have taken the separation of families, friends and possessions in purchase to finally escape a regime that denies them the right to self-determination and in which they saw no more livable future for themselves and their children.
The issues that they expect to find their way in Haramosh teistungsorientierten, will easier be offered jobs in all parts of the Federal Republic. The young and well-educated part compatriots from the other German State are in demand especially for technical professions.
With the desired goal, the German Paß, which is beginning made for integration and normality in everyday German.
The flight pushes eloquent testament to the communal spirit of the Germans is a living reality. In a time where in the USSR and Eastern Europe a profound change taking place, is closing the GDR still reform thoughts and sticking to the inhumane border, separates the Germans by Germans. The events of those weeks and months have again for the German unresolved world interest piqued.
02. Lech Walesa in the Federal Republic of Germany Poland 1981: strikes shatter the crisis country. The electrician Lech Walesa becomes the celebrated leader of the reform movement.
Eight years later, Lech Walesa, attended as the representative of the new Poland, a works meeting of steel workers in the Ruhr area. He can be sure the sympathy of his host: solidarity won – in the Government of Poland, the Communists have no majority.
His German colleagues called the Polish labor leader that his country now also wanted catch up a common Europe. For concrete help Walesa was in talks with the German economy - here with Bertold Beitz, Chairman of the Krupp Foundation.
The reform process in Poland is at risk without the West's support, said Walesa, but through an approximation of economic systems the basis for cooperation was created, not only with Germany but also with France and the United Kingdom.
Cooperation, which serves all. We want to be Poland within Europe.
Europe wants to help. Food from Germany and many other countries be brought to Poland; the revenue from the sale serve the development of the country.
The priority themes even when German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, who assured him, how much he and his compatriots want success for Poland, which serves both sides were future cooperation between Poland and the Federal Republic of Germany, international and bilateral aid. He even assured of the Chancellor, will encourage the German economy to invest in Poland.
"We both know a lot about each other, and I hope that we a good distance as long as possible together can go now."
With the profound changes in Poland, the goal of a lasting peaceful order in Europe is closer to a piece.

03. art factories - new art in old buildings the modern economy has for them no purpose: factories from times of industrial heyday. So, get rid of these! Too late!
The art has nested. Temporarily at first.
Thus, a promising art factory was established from the disused machine factory. A Spieiort where dance and theatre, music and painting often freer and more could develop as on established stages. Last but not least, it was the audience, which campaigned for the continued existence of the provisional.
Today, this stadium is recognized and the cultural life of the city of Hamburg no longer become indispensable. No one speaks more of the demolition of the halls. On the contrary. The Hamburg authorities want to make the Splelbetrieb on healthy economic feet and secure long term.
Also under this roof, the hammers groaned once. Today, Hard Rock is booming here.
They come even if no event is running. Because something's always going. You come here, because it - how do you say - 'is somehow cozy' in the old factory.
And who wanted to deny, making music is hard work. But in ancient times, there was no applause for heavy lifting.

As for research and development into the largest reasonable depths of sea tauchthier's 'practiced'. In a North German large research center.
GUSI is called the underwater simulation facility. A closed system of residential and work Chambers. As a diving base ship.
The transfer Chamber looks with the divers of dry feet on the seabed will be lowered. Below to go to into the wet element.
Here, they work under the same pressures as he is at great sea depths.
Dives be simulated up to 600 metres up to 100, 200, 300, Yes. To the limits of human capacity.
To develop new oil and gas deposits, the off shore penetrate technique in ever greater depth. With her the need, also here devices and pipes to maintain and repair. Under extreme diving and working conditions.
The voices of the divers are distorted. Her breathing gas mainly include helium next to oxygen. And helium transmits the sound waves differently than air. The entire highly complex system is controlled and monitored from the control station out. Development and testing of new technologies for people and material. This is - in the interaction between Government, universities and private economy--the task of GUSI.

34 years ago I've founded the Tauberbischofsheim fencing Department in a basement under the urban stage. And it sounds like a fairy tale, what happened in the meantime. We are one of the most successful sports centers in the world today. And what speaks for us, above all, that is the social area. The 3 to 6 year old that starting part boarding school with pre-school education, then. And will here helped later in the profession so that the sportier here can operate high-performance sport, without that she later stop at work in the rain.
