Hardly a sport wears out the assets as fast as Motocross. Here, the offspring has a chance early. At the Moscow championships a 19 drove away the field of seasoned veterans.

While traveling: Unknown Germany cities in Germany. Voyages of discovery as a contrast to the mass tourism of our time. You can do Inn and Ilz at the confluence of the Danube, for example, where the cultural and economic center of Eastern Bavaria is located - around 1250 years. Passau began as a Bishop's seat and residence city. Two fires ravaged the Gothic image of the city. From the rubble, the Baroque Passau grew with the help of Italian architect and stucco workers.
The city's Christian history reference 37 churches and chapels. From here, the entire Austro Hungarian area was Christianized once. The St Stephen's Cathedral has to offer something special today not only art but also music lovers: the world's largest church organ.

The outskirts of Passau - Austria is at the door, and it is closer than to Munich to Czechoslovakia - has constrained the economic development of the city. After the expansion of roads to water and land, Passau has renewed hope to build on his role in the middle ages: the German gate to South-Eastern Europe. This fashion: Romance and ancient Paris remains the fashion address for the better world - also if sometimes fashion designers from Italy, England and the United States, to create worldwide fashion hits.

This archive: News from yesterday memory of April 1947 industrial building (original sound 1947): the replacement of a light bulb is one of the many concerns of everyday life, the solution of which today represents a most difficult problem. The demand for incandescent lamps is huge. The gradually ongoing electric industry can deliver only the most urgent requirements from business, academia and hospitals. These shots of several German plants show sections of the extremely complex production path of a light bulb. The glass bulb is undergoing a variety of apparatus, until he fulfills his destiny as a permanent and reliable light source. The Word also applies to the lighting industry today to a large extent: necessity is the mother of invention. And these inventions benefit the general public. The Osramwerke in Berlin produce a so-called fluorescent lamp, who standardized on 31 Watts, emits a light intensity of 100 watt. An equally valuable as a welcome innovation. A procedure to replace incandescent lamps is more important for the general public. It was developed by electrical firms in Limburg on the Lahn and Travemünde. Old becomes new! the glass bulb be cut open and get new elements and base. This refined process means a first practical help for the consumer. But the industry wins the necessary time to rebuild of their businesses and to overcome the shortage of raw materials. Still a long way to satisfy every requirement, but as you can see, a first friendly light look.
