01 Kohl in Moscow of the visit of German Chancellor Helmut Kohl for Michail Gorbatschow in Moscow was the focus of international interest. "Glasnost" in Moscow: readily tell passersby what they expect from the meeting of the German Chancellor with the Soviet head of Parteiund State.
"The visit of the German Chancellor is good because it helps that more, there will be no war in the world."
"I wish that our bilateral relations continue to develop and improve."
"I am war and know what it means war. I expect peace - only peace. "God we get in, that we can live in peace!"
For decades, the West is seeking compromise with the Soviet Union. Gorbachev's new policy are, as the Chancellor later stated before the German Bundestag, conditions "as for progress in dealings between West and East created hardly ever in the postwar period". The first step to understanding was done under Bundeszanzler Adenauer in 1955. Official diplomatic relations were established.
The Exchange started with much hope of joint cultural and sports events, such as for example the first soccer match of the German team in Moscow, during the cold war led to a first approximation. The meeting of Chancellor Willy Brandt in 1970 with the former Soviet Party and Leonid Breschnew head of State high-tension expectations. The "new Ostpolitik" improved the political climate.
As major joint economic project, the german Soviet natural gas business came in 1973. An own pipeline, the Soviet natural gas supplies reach the Federal Republic since then.
Economic agreements were reached in the meeting between Kohl and Gorbachev. German banks, a 3-billion mark credit is provided of the Soviet economy. Environmental protection, nuclear energy and space exploration are fields in which future more closely to work together. With such initiatives, the Federal Republic to promote started opening up of Soviet policy and therefore the relaxation process. Without prejudice of the different views in political fundamental questions, about German reunification, or the situation of Berlin, problems that were openly by Kohl in Moscow remain. An attitude by the way, that the German public broad consensus came: "I think it is good that Kohl has addressed the Berlin question, even though he knew exactly that it will encounter rejection."
"So, it wouldn't be bad if they would talk past each other! I really think that for all what comes out."
"For Germany, I hope actually also an improvement of the relationship between the GDR and the Federal Republic through this visit."
"The question is whether what really changed over the next 20 years - or whether this is only one approach that plays out."
Hope that the Soviet Union actually something moves, may have the West. Very great public interest attracted recently from exile to Moscow a meeting between Kohl and the returned dissident Sakharov and his wife. The German head of Government was then of the meeting deeply impressed: "the encounter it was human very - very moving. It is a very great pair and can only - I say it once easily formulated - pull the hat so much courage and so much of humanity. "What I said here last night has been confirmed once more: that respect for human rights, respect is people, humanity, the best basis for, that trust between the peoples."
A return visit of Gorbachev in Bonn was agreed for the year 1989. Hope for the continuation of the relaxation process.

02. Karl shrine of the Aachen Cathedral is the oldest surviving church building of in Germany. Its centerpiece is the famous Palatine Chapel, which at the end of the 8th century built Kaiser Karl the great for his residence of Aachen. In the Gallery: The old Kaisenthron, so set up, that the more than 50 emperors climbed it in the course of the centuries, were visible to all in the Palatine Chapel.
The "Karl shrine", the coffin of Charlemagne, of the emperor who laid the foundations of today's Europe is again at the Centre of the chancel. The precious shrine made of gold and silver, 1215 created was attracted as much Rhenish artists in the last war affected, that he threatened to fall apart. For six years, scientists and craftsmen, needed to save the precious work and to obtain for the future. In a solemn ceremony, the more than 750-year-old Karl shrine to its rightful place in the Aachen Palatinate Chapel returned now.

03. material ceramic bricks are a ceramic product, even a very old. Could produce also pots and pitchers already in the earliest ancient ceramic - and tiles has also existed for centuries. Which--except for the industrial manufacturing - is ceramic new to the material? New is that ceramic raw materials thanks to scientific materials and highest orally in an almost unlimited number of novel products can be transformed. The engine of this car would be less without ceramic zura example. The ceramic exhaust manifolds give the latest Porsche model added strength.
"Ceramic is the material of the future. It has excellent mechanical and chemical properties, it is heat-resistant and - second - the raw materials around the world in sufficient quantities are available. -You must of course know how to do that. You can easily shape insulators for high voltage lines. But thin-walled tubes or even screws, gears, gaskets and bearings are not so easy to produce. Products, as this turbine wheels for the car industry, (or even feathers made of ceramic!) to comply with the technical requirements, years of research is needed. Ceramic helps also in medicine: this artificial hip joints have long proven in surgery.
And finally: the micro-electronics! The complicated circuits are thin ceramic tiles. Insulate in the smallest space. Ceramic insulated the familiar spark plugs already for a long time. Ceramic valves in taps work better and have to yet to be rot-proof. Ceramic materials are the latest achievement. Ceramic substances can not burn. This makes them better suited than the environmentally hazardous asbestos fabrics for protective clothing. Ceramic can tolerate much and afford much in the future.

04. educational real toys for the development of children is extremely important. Therefore, their toys should be educational. In other words: it is to stimulate the imagination, challenge your technical skill and must be also robust. The Swabian engineer and inventor Arthur Fischer was looking for toys with these properties, as he wanted to give the children of his employees and business associates to Christmas 30 years ago. When he found none, he invented one: a nylon module that can be connected on all six sides with other stones. He developed construction kits, which are today known around the world as the "Fischer technology" from this module.
Fischer works in the black forest are among the leading toy manufacturers in Germany today. Always new toys will be invented in the major research and Development Center. In cooperation with scientific institutions, the technical and pedagogical tests toys is subjected. Only when it is fully mature, it comes on the market. The Swabian inventor of fishing invented most of the machines for the production for this also. Real educational toys for all ages: according to this motto kits with simple building blocks, beginning and ending with sophisticated systems with solar - and computer technology are in the black forest.

05. six-day racing six day race at the Dortmunder Westfalenhalle! A race to the vdiesmal the young driver had reported particularly eager: Every second of the 2 man cycling team for the first time in a race the 6 days and 6 nights joined. They brought fresh wind and thus the long missing voltage in the cycling spectacle.
Because a great spectacle, an "event" where one must be necessarily, were always 6-days race and have remained there. 55,000 spectators, far more than expected, celebrated in the Interior and in the stands. Sports and entertainment to an atmosphere, one which can resist hard mix in round carousel of the wheels. Being, people see, types of study - and be seen especially itself, then this is the most important for the majority of the audience six all-nighters.
Only in the final sprint of last night outweighs the sporting interest. The Australian English favourite Danny Clark and Tony Doyle won the "six-days' of Dortmund. They were celebrated there.
