01 1st FC Köln and Littbarski football Bundesliga: In the Müngersdorfer Stadion was the HSV guest at the 1 FC Cologne. The Hamburg pulled up and met on a Cologne team that plays with back in top of the table for the first time for years. Their playmaker with the number ten, Pierre Littbarski is responsible for the recovery of the Rhinelander. Does he think that Cologne can be even champion this year?
"Yes, I've seen the others. Are not much better than us and ' nen bit of luck we can keep us up. You need of course so the luck of Bavaria, as you had in the last few years."
Actually, Bayern for years dominated the top of the table. This should be different. Cologne then also this time quickly took the initiative and had the first chance with Littbarski also. Often, there were three hamburger, who tried to stop the 27 internationals. In the Bundesliga, also according to foreign experts is still one of the best leagues in the world, is fighting for every ball, every centimetre on the lawn. Littbarskis specialty, refined which came free kicks, bring Cologne 1-0 by Thomas Allofs.
After halftime, under floodlights, Cologne further pressed the Hamburg goal. In addition to the playmaker, the goalkeeper Bodo Illgner is a guarantee for Cologne victories. Again, the young goalkeeper risking head and collar. With Pierre Littbarskis dribbling and tricks is increasingly under pressure to HSV Cologne and WINS 1-0. Cologne remain in the Bundesliga top flight so.

02. carbon in the Ruhr region German hard coal day in Essen, the meeting of representatives of the mining industry in the Federal Republic. Outside miners with banners on their concerns draw attention on their fear, perhaps to be without work in future. Because the coal is in trouble. Food, in the heart of the Ruhr region, was the Centre of German coal mining. Here, the biggest industrial metropolitan area in Europe had developed over one and a half centuries. The coal, "Black gold", was the basis of the industry. But in recent years, unit sales stagnated. As in other advanced industrial countries reduced the importance of heavy industry in Germany. Also: fossil fuel coal is everywhere on the world competition by other, cheaper energy sources, by the nuclear power for example or by oil.
Task of the politicians was to head off the effects of structural change for the people in the Ruhr area. To prevent mass layoffs, the Federal Government supported the electricity from coal has become too expensive. This ensures the conservation of this nation's energy. Nothing can change the fact: it is used in the future of less coal, not more! This means that the State aid to the coal industry alone are not enough. The Federal Government has developed a comprehensive program for a new structure together with the trade unions and the employers. Thus, for example, retraining measures for miners in another profession is paid. Many companies, such as electronics companies settle here. As old jobs disappear, new to emerge. Promotion programs, Ruhr area should be recruited in the future for German and foreign companies for the site. The Federal Republic is determined to achieve that even people in the Ruhr area further participate in the industrial development of the entire Federal Republic.

03. Dornier SeaStar is now presented a new German aircraft. Powered by two turboprop engines together 1,000 HP power can this new aircraft as amphibian both of the land by the water and landing. Thus it has more uses than other types. The "SeaStar" was developed by Claudius Dornier. Most important novelty: fuselage and wings are made of glass-fibre plastic. With twelve and a half meters long and 15 meters span, the "SeaStar" is the biggest plane ever manufactured in plastic composite construction.
The "SeaStar" is a use aircraft. In Kiel, now began the final test flights from the water. The new aircraft with short takeoff property is cheaper than a helicopter and does much more. The production brings simplification with himself and thus a considerable reduction of costs. In contrast to the usual aircraft construction, manual labor is typical for the use of glass fiber and plastic. The "SeaStar" has a cruising speed of 360 kilometres per hour - and: you can stay up to nine and a half hours in the air!
Through the use of foils and plastic, the aircraft is rot-proof and resistant to salt water. The "SeaStar" thus promises a long service life. The cabin can accommodate 14 passengers. The capacity in the different flight positions was examined thoroughly. Only the wings had to endure tests about themselves, which corresponded to 30,000 flight hours,- and that not only with the help of computer graphics! There are already 21 purchase options for the "SeaStar" from abroad. Production starts in 1988.

04. Michael Ody: Art to wear what is fashion: there is very vague. It is already a special art, gradually to take shape in the first mostly shady ideas. What emerges there eventually, no is not only fashionable design as elsewhere - in this case, it's a work of art! The sculptor Michael Ody in Munich makes front against the established fashion industry. He looks different fashion. He wants more. He wants to "Art to wear"! Is Michael Ody a visionary? What he says is realistic. Art needs everyone at any time - as a dress. What is art for him?
"A stylish game with shapes, colors, volumes and structures." "I'm on the search for new forms of expression, according to a new aesthetic. During my college years, I have discovered a textile material. Oddly enough, there is still separation related creative fields: fine arts, applied arts, design, fashion and so on. I'm now trying to redefine these terms. "Everything has begun with sculpture: clothes, Haute Couture, avant-garde art!"
An outsider's outsider-mode. And why not? Fashion made in Munich can use new colors. 05. Bell cast in Herborn clay is mixed. A Bell will be created. Bell casting just is still something special just one of technical specialties that are so typical for the performance of the German industry. However. A bell cast feels like a technological fossil in the midst of the modern high-speed industry. Bells are still built like centuries ago. There is no other way.
Everything still runs, as the poet Friedrich Schiller described in the 'song of the Bell': ' Cook porridge of copper! Quickly the Tin, that the tough Bell food flows to the right way.'
And still is the municipality with the cast of doing their Bell, nor always the blessing of the priest: "we pray for all who will achieve the reputation of this Bell, that they understand the language of the Bell and heeding her call to the glory of God and for the good of the people. Amen."
"For God's sake!"
No question, at the Bell casting resonates metaphysical. The family Rincker in Herborn pours bells for 500 years. Today is the thirteenth generation in the workshop. Fifty employees work here. The large-scale industry in the Ruhr area has long abandoned attempt, industrially made of steel to make bells. Bell casting is just not rationalisierbares business. Only when the bronze is cold after a few days, the Rinckers know if the cast was. Friedrich Schiller precisely describes the process: ' swinging the hammer, swinging, until the mantle. When the Glock' should be resurrected, the shape into pieces must go.'
Until then, you can hear the Bell for the first time. "The Bell is a musical instrument, an instrument that is unparalleled in the world. There is nothing comparable."

06. 400 times Germany mirror to the final images and words in their own right. This is the four-hundredth issue of the "mirror of Germany". For more than 33 years, we report from the Federal Republic of Germany for the world of beaches and ports on the coasts of the Baltic and to the regions of the Alps in the South. More than 2,500 individual contributions, we showed the Federal Republic as a country of industry and of the economy, and its people. We, reported the development in science and society since 1954, when the "mirror of Germany" for the first time appeared of technological development in the many large and small companies.
We are attempting to convey an image of the Federal Republic in many different facets to our spectators from abroad, from the Heath landscape barren the old German capital to the large, lively cities, especially from Berlin, the divided city between East and West. Amidst the varied cultural landscape, Bonn, the capital of the Federal Republic is located on the Rhine. German and international policy is made here: Economic Summit in Bonn! On old and new artwork, we turned the cameras on the old cathedral of Cologne as well as on the art museum newly created at his feet with its rich collections of - or on the artistic work on German stages. In Munich - we want to show folk traditions with ancient tradition, Carnival celebration and Carnival, Oktoberfest also amusement and fun.
And of course: sports! Sport for all and reports of sporting excellence were always the topic offer: Michael Groß, German record float. We showed in the Germany mirror Boris Becker and Steffi Graf, as they were not yet as famous as it is today. World Cup football with German soccer star Franz Beckenbauer. And again: the Fußball - Bundesliga. The Germany mirror gives our country a diverse overview of since the early years of the Federal Republic. And so we want to keep it for the future.
