| | Fast Food German Style | | 2008-08-18 08:30:00 | | "You know I like to complain about waiters and their poor service, but this is ridiculous! I wonder if they automated the banquet manager too". Read on...Germany likes to call itself the "Land of Ideas" - and over the centuries it has certainly had plenty of them. It was Germans who invented the aspirin, the airship, the printing press and the diesel engine. But Germany has surely never produced anything quite as weird as the automated restaurant. I say "restaurant" - but it actually looks more like a rollercoaster, with long metal tracks criss-crossing the dining area. The tracks run all the way from the kitchen, high up in the roof, down to the tables, twisting and turning as they go. And down the tracks - in little pots with wheels fixed to the bottom - speeds food. Supersonic sausages, high-pace pancakes and wine bottles whizzing down to the customers' tables with the help of good old gravity. One pot is spiralling down so fast, it looks like an Olympic bobsleigh (but it... | | By: So You Want To Be a Banquet Manager... | | |

| | German Man Torches BMW 3-Series Sedan to Protest High Gas Prices | | 2008-06-30 00:04:00 | | BERLIN - A German man doused his BMW with gasoline and torched it today in protest at skyrocketing fuel costs, police said.The unemployed 30-year-old man drove the black 1995 BMW 3-series sedan onto the lawn outside Frankfurt's convention center grounds at about 7:30 a.m., police spokesman Karlheinz Wagner said.He then jumped out, emptied a canister of gas over the vehicle, and set fire to it, Wagner said.By the time the fire department got to the scene, the car was entirely burned out.The Bavarian man, whose name was being withheld because he has not been charged with a crime, told police that gas prices were so high he could no longer afford to drive the vehicle.As in many countries, gasoline prices have risen steadily in Germany; a liter of regular gasoline now costs about 1.55 euros, or $9.40 per gallon.Police were investigating whether the man could be charged with violating German environmental laws with the stunt, Wagner said. Penalties range from fines to five years in prison.+... | | By: Autos Space | | |
| | Mandatory solar panels in German town of Marburg | | 2008-06-28 18:47:09 | | The central German town of Marburg is the first in German to make solar panels mandatory for almost all rooftops of private and commercial buildings. The controversial new law requires a solar panel for every new building and every old building that is being renovated. The historical buildings such as the Marburg Castle, Marburg's City Hall, and the Elisabeth Church will be exempt from the requirement. The solar law was approved by the town's council on June 20, and will take effect Oct. 1. According to the law, a 1 square meter (10 square feet) panel must be installed for every 20 square meters (200 square feet) of surface area. Installing the panels could cost homeowners up to €5,000 ($7,800). The cost would be paid off through savings in energy bills over a 15-year period, the town's mayor, Franz Kahle, said. Those violating the law will face fines starting at €1,000 ($1,500). The town is home to Marburg University and has about 80,000 residents.

| | Michael Schumacher to race a Honda CBR1000RR in German Superbike | | 2008-05-17 11:06:00 | | Seven-time Formula 1 racing champion Michael Schumacher will be racing this weekend on a Honda CBR1000RR at the IDM International German Motorbike Championship. There are rumors that he'll be racing under a false name, Marcel Niederhausen. Now that the cat is officially out of the bag, so to speak, he may as well skip the alias. Schumacher will race alongside current champion Martin Bauer for Holzhauer Racing.With this announcement, all of the previous events which Schumacher took part in start to make more sense. Superbike racing is very hotly contested, and the bikes feature nearly two-hundred horsepower in race trim. Therefore, it would have been an exceedingly bad idea to race in this series without a few warm-up runs. According to event organizers, the thirty-seven year old Schumacher has been testing for the last few weeks with members of his new team and "he surprised many experts with fast times." We can only hope that our "retirements" will be so enjoyable.[Source: Motorcycle ... | | By: Car News | | |

| | Dollar rose after better US employment report and large fall in German Ifo Index | | 2008-04-25 10:39:07 | | The Dollar rose across the board on Thursday after US government data showed resilience in the labor market, while a key measure of business sentiment in Germany plunged undermining the Euro. The Euro's fall followed an early week rally to a record 1.6019 on Tuesday, the highest level since the Euro’s inception in 1999, as investors bet the ECB would raise interest rates to restrain inflation. The headline Ifo index fell to a much lower-than-expected 102.4 in April, its lowest since January 2006. The Ifo, coupled with a slump in the euro zone manufacturing PMI to levels nearly implying an economic-contraction on Wednesday, suggested that the euro zone may not be immune to a US economic slowdown. ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said on Thursday that there is concern about the impact of currency fluctuations on financial stability.

| | German boy, 13, corrects Nasa's asteroid figures | | 2008-04-15 20:21:00 | | BERLIN - A 13-year-old German schoolboy corrected Nasa's estimates on the chances of an asteroid colliding with Earth, a German newspaper reported on Tuesday, after spotting the boffins had miscalculated. Nico Marquardt used telescopic findings from the Institute of Astrophysics in Potsdam (AIP) to calculate that there was a 1 in 450 chance that the Apophis asteroid will collide with Earth, the Potsdamer Neuerster Nachrichten reported. Nasa had previously estimated the chances at only 1 in 45,000 but told its sister organisation, the European Space Agency (ESA), that the young whizzkid had got it right. The schoolboy took into consideration the risk of Apophis running into one or more of the 40,000 satellites orbiting Earth during its path close to the planet on April 13 2029. Those satellites travel at 3.07km a second, at up to 35,880km above earth - and the Apophis asteroid will pass by earth at a distance of 32,500km. If the asteroid strikes a satellite in 2029, that will chang... | | By: How to be Rich, Happy and Free from Scams | | |

The flow of overseas buyers has slowed greatly in recent months.The primary explanation for this slowdown is the economic crisis in the U.S. and the collapse of the dollar. Nevertheless, there is a feeling among prospective apartment buyers that Jerusalem property owners are asking too much for exclusive homes."There certainly is a slowdown," one agent says. "There is a feeling that while foreign residents behaved naively in the past and bought just about anything for any price, they are now wiser."

| | | The One Time We WANT To See German Troops... | | 2008-02-03 13:50:00 | | Germany’s refusal to send their Afghanistan-based troops into the volatile Southern provinces is symptom of much larger issues. By standing on the sidelines, the Germans join so-called NATO members Italy, Turkey, and that fierce-fighting nation France in supporting the War on Terror in words and little action. While the Northern part of the war-torn nation cannot be considered ‘safe’ by any means, the decision to keep the much-needed military and equipment support away from those actually doing the fighting in the South – especially the United States, Canada, Britain, and others – has shown a growing rift in the NATO alliance over the issue. Purely political, the governing bodies in the countries in question have failed to get the message of the necessity of the war to their respective peoples. They fear losing power over fully supporting an unpopular war (made unpopular because of the peoples lack of knowledge regarding the issue), and instead are trying to walk a fine li... | | By: The Moderate Separatist | | |
| | German automakers ready for U.S. downturn | | 2008-01-29 12:16:33 | | German automakers ready for U.S. downturn
It's no secret that 2008 could be one of the worst years for automakers in the last decade and a half, but German automakers say they are ready to weather the storm. The U.S. market represents about 20% of BMW's, Porsche's and Mercedes-Benz's total sales, but the German automakers are not entirely concerned about a downturn because they have an upscale client base. Porsche relies on the U.S. for 36% of its global sales, but is still not concerned about a slump in the market. "Especially in the U.S., we have a very solvent clientele," CEO Wendelin Wiedeking has said. "Porsche is prepared for a possible slump." Although Audi has plans to ramp up its U.S. sales, the U.S. currently accounts for only about 10% of the marques worldwide sales. "We generate 90 percent of our sales outside the U.S., and our growth in those areas is unabated," an Audi spokesperson told Automotive News. However, higher volume brands such as Volkswagen could feel the crunch since the brand is "closer to the average consumer." Unlike BMW and Mercedes-Benz, VW doesn't have any production facilities in the U.S., although one is on the way. However, the downturn in the U.S. economy could be the perfect time for foreign automakers to invest more in the U.S. As Albrecht Denninghoff of BHF-Bank put it: "Land is cheap. The dollar is cheap. Real property is cheap." ... | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |

| | German experts crack Mona Lisa smile | | 2008-01-14 22:05:49 | | German academics believe they have solved the centuries-old mystery behind the identity of the "Mona Lisa" in Leonardo da Vinci's famous portrait.Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a wealthy Florentine merchant, Francesco del Giocondo, has long been seen as the most likely model for the sixteenth-century painting.But art historians have often wondered whether the smiling woman may actually have been da Vinci's lover, his mother or the artist himself.Now experts at the Heidelberg University library say dated notes scribbled in the margins of a book by its owner in October 1503 confirm once and for all that Lisa del Giocondo was indeed the model for one of the most famous portraits in the world."All doubts about the identity of the Mona Lisa have been eliminated by a discovery by Dr. Armin Schlechter," a manuscript expert, the library said in a statement on Monday.Until then, only "scant evidence" from sixteenth-century documents had been available. "This left lots of room for interpretation and there were many different identities put forward," the library said.The notes were made by a Florentine city official Agostino Vespucci, an acquaintance of the artist, in a collection of letters by the Roman orator Cicero.The comments compare Leonardo to the ancient Greek artist Apelles and say he was working on three paintings at the time, one of them a portrait of Lisa del Giocondo.Art experts, who have already dated the painting to this time, say the Heidelberg discovery is a breakthrough and the earliest mention linking the merchant's wife to the portrait."There is no reason for any lingering doubts that this is another woman," Leipzig University art historian Frank Zoellner told German radio. "One could even say that books written about all this in the past few years were unnecessary, had we known."The woman was first linked to the painting in around 1550 by Italian official Giorgio Vasari, the library said, but added there had been doubts about Vasari's reliability and had... | | By: Goss INDIA | | |

| | German couple picked as 2008's first foreign visitors | | 2008-01-04 10:48:20 | | German couple Michel and Jennifer Franchon Bernard did not expect they would be greeted by a crew of friendly airport staff members and a Sundanese jaipongan dance troupe upon arriving at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport on New Year's Day. "What a surprise. We are very happy. We never dreamed of this happening. I couldn't even sleep because of the holiday," Michel said.Michel and his wife are visiting Indonesia for a two-week vacation. They said they would spend their first week in Jakarta and another week in Bali and Lombok.Airport operator PT Angkasa Pura II picked the couple as the first air passengers to land at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport for the new year.The couple, along with 256 others, arrived in Jakarta on a Singapore Airlines flight from Singapore, which landed at 10:30 a.m. "The couple received the Indonesian government's acknowledgment as the first tourists to visit the country this year," said airport executive general manager Heriyanto.The airport operator presented the couple with flower wreaths, PT Angkasa Pura paraphernalia, batik clothing and priority in visa-on-arrival arrangements as the first tourists for 2008.PT Angkasa Pura president director Edi Haryoto said the special greeting was arranged in a bid to support the government's "Visit Indonesian Year 2008" program.The government has targeted 7 million foreign visitors during "Visit Indonesia Year 2008".

| | German Bridge That Is For Boats-Truth! | | 2007-11-14 03:46:00 | | Summary of the eRumor: The email includes a picture of what appears to be a bridge for boats! It says the bridge is over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, part of a unification project. The Truth: The bridge is known as the Magdeburg Water Bridge and provides a link between two German shipping canals, the Elbe-Havel canal and the Mittellandkanal. It's the longest and largest boat bridge in the world. Connecting the two important canals has been envisioned since the early part of the last century and construction was actually begun in the 1930's but was hindered by two world wars and then the Cold War that split Germany into the East and the West. The bridge is a kilometer long and cost more than $500 million Euros. Without the bridge commercial traffic was dependent on the Elbe river, which was not reliable throughout the year because of occasions of low water levels, and which sometimes stranded boats and barges. A real example of the eRumor as it has appeared on the Internet: Water Bridge in Germany.... What a feat! Six years, 500 million euros, 918 meters long.......now this is engineering! This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of Magdeburg, near Berlin. The photo was taken on the day of inauguration. To those who appreciate engineering projects..... from:www.TruthOrFiction.com... | | By: Geeks Undercover | | |

| | | German physicists claimed "They broken the speed of light" | | 2007-09-10 00:12:52 | | A pair of German physicists claim to have broken the speed of light - an achievement that would undermine our entire understanding of space and time. According to Einstein's special theory of relativity, it would require an infinite amount of energy to propel an object at more than 186,000 miles per second.However , Dr Gunter Nimtz and Dr Alfons Stahlhofen, of the University of Koblenz, say they may have breached a key tenet of that theory.The pair say they have conducted an experiment in which microwave photons - energetic packets of light - traveled "instantaneously" between a pair of prisms that had been moved up to 3ft apart.Being able to travel faster than the speed of light would lead to a wide variety of bizarre consequences.Source:http://www.telegraph.co.uk

| | | German Beer and English Cider | | 2007-08-23 02:47:00 | | I got home from work last night and sat on the porch to drink a glass of Oliver's Dry Cider. Before I could pour a glass, Neil showed up with a bottle of Mahr's Weisse and asked if I felt like sharing. Probably more of a rhetorical question than anything, but I responded by getting another glass.The cider was still, bone dry, and too cold to properly enjoy, so we set it aside to breathe and warm up while we contemplated the weisse beer. Every beer I have from Mahr's raises their score on my mental brewery list, and this was no exception. The beer poured like a Portland summer; beautiful, hazy sun shone out from beneath a fluffy white cloud while the breeze carried floral notes and a bit of spice. OK, the spice part might not have anything to do with Portland, but the rest is true. The "typical" flavors of wheat mingled with banana and clove phenols are present, but the true measure of this beer is it's restrained balance. Unlike most other German wheat beers the various components don'... | | By: Belmont Station Beer Forum | | |

| | Vote for the German Cover art | | 2007-07-29 15:57:20 | | German readers are being given the chance the vote on what cover are they would like on Deathly Hallows. We’d say it was unfair that we didn’t get the chance to vote out the hideous UK kid’s edition but in all fairness, both German covers are the pits.
You can choose cover A which appears to feature a presumably edited scene from the book in which Harry and Voldemort toast marshmallows together in the Forbidden Forest.
Or choose cover B which depicts a green shirted chap aiding another to perform a backflip while Harry rushes over to watch. Ah, that famous scene.
We could probably throw up on a piece of paper and it would look better than this. Vote here.
