Geology of the area
Between Sangerhausen and Wallhausen there is the lowland
of the river Helme. Most of the clays, silts, sands and gravel
are up to 2 million years old and more than 590 m in depth,
with which the Helme filled its lowland in the Pleistocene.
They form together with the rocks of the Tertiary the
unconsolitated sediment level. The 250 million years old clay,
silt and sandstones of the Triassic are deposited in the
subjacent table mountains (platform cover). Limestone,
anhydrite and salt rocks of the Zechstein belong to the
sediments of the platform cover, too.
Due to tectonic processes about 80 50 million years ago the
original flat deposits sediments changed their position.
Today rock formations of different aged rocks from different
sedimentation areas are laying beside and proving vertical
movements, stretching partly several hundred metres. These
tectonically caused fracturing is called Saxonian fault block
Soluble processes caused by water begin as soon as the rocks
of the Zechstein come near the surface due to their chemical
contents. The process is known as karstification. This
anhydrite karst can be found in the whole southern Harz
showing romantic caves, bizarre morphologic shapes and a
rare flora seen along the karst walking paths. The roughly
consolidated gravel (conglomerates) and the red sandstone
of the red beds are older than the chemical sediments of the
Zechstein. These are erosion results of the old Variscan
mountain building. They come to the surface in the area of
the Hornburg Sattel (anticline). The Basement with the rocks
of the Wippra Zone begins in the north. Caused by
metamorphosis (rock changing) during the formation of the
Variscan mountain building 350 330 million years ago
argillite and clay slates were formed out of clay and sandy
sea deposits of the Ordovician and Silurian. To the west,
sediments of the Lower Carboniferous follow.
Point Cone Mine Dump
Hohe Linde( 1 )
This mine dump can be seen far across the landscape thus
forming the name of landmark 12. The artificial hill north of
Sangerhausen is a visible monument of mining history,
especially copper mining closed down in 1990.
The basis for 1000 years of mining in the area of Sangerhausen
was a rock layer about 30 cm in size the copper ore/copper
Mining in that area was first mentioned on 25 January 1006
in the deed of donation of the emperor Heinrich II (died in
Mainly gold and silver composed in a rare volume in the ore
beside other metals were mined. A copper mine was first
mentioned near Sangerhausen in 1388. The technological
development of mining can be seen impressively in the size
and composition of mine dumps and reaches from small
family mine dumps from the very beginning of mining to
huge point cone mine dumps from the recent past. In 1944 a
new mine was sunk in a depth of 52 m below surface north
of Sangerhausen. After the standstill during the war work
could be continued and in 1947 the sink work could start
again. Till 1953 the depth reached 686 m.
The first large copper mine in the mining area of Sangerhausen
received the name of Thomas Müntzer. Thomas Müntzer had
in his retinue not only farmers but also miners. Production in
the Thomas Müntzer mine came to a standstill in 1990.
About 20 million tons of deadrock are deposited in the Hohe
Linde forming a nearly 150 m high dump.
Wippra Zone Former quarry at the Pferdeköpfe ( 2 )
The Wippra zone stretches in
one line along north-eastern
direction from Breitungen via
the Kohlestraße (coal street)
to Gorenzen consisting of
metamorphic rocks. Driving
along the street from Grillenberg
to Wippra we cross the
Kohlestraße. Its name dates
back to the time then charcoal
was transported out of the
forest to the metallurgical
Right at the crossing is a car park. Walking from there we
reach the former quarry in 5 minutes (N51°33.153,
Greenschist can be found in the quarry. It was already
excavated before 1945. An Eisleben based company began
to quarry the rocks in 1951 again thus enlarging
the outcrop area by about 50 %. Different rocks
for street construction were won.
In 1960 the quarry was shut down. We pass a
geodetic point on our way to the quarry. That
is one out of five points set at different places
in the Harz in the 1960s for watching the
potential Harz-raising effect.
Grillenburg ( 3 )
The ruins of the Grillenburg can be
found above the site Grillenberg
(N51°32.067; E011°18.870). We follow
the signs of the walking path starting
at a small parking place at the bottom
of the Schloßberge on the site. The
fortress was mainly erected using
conglomerates and sandstones of the
red beds the rocks of the surrounding
area. Remarkable is the use of bricks
as construction material for the superstructure.
In 1217 the Grellenberch was first
mentioned in a document. Partly in -
habited in 1483, the fortress was a ruin
100 years later. The village is a lot older and is mentioned in the
so-called Hersfelder Zehntregister at the end of 9th cen tury. We
can find other witnesses of the past in the area of Grillen berg,
for example the deserted medieval village Wüstung Hohenrode.
Excavations have already been made there since 1930s.
Mining museum Röhrigschacht
Wettelrode ( 4 )
The museum in Wettelrode is
embedded in the historic mining
landscape of the south-eastern
Harz foreland. Copper mining
history in the region once the
largest copper ore mining area
in Europe can clearly be seen
The museum above surface
informs about the formation of
the deposit, geology and
mineralogy as well as mining.
The marking landmark can be seen far across the country the
steel made winding apparatus. It is one of the oldest remaining
mine hoists of Europe. In the area of the mine dump an
exhibition about mine hoisting technology and machinery can
be visited, among it a rack railway only used in copper mining
below surface. A small exhibition informs visitors about the
Biosphere Reserve Karst Landscape South Harz. The mining
museum was opened in 1991. As miners would say we can go
down 283 m deep into the earth with an original winding
Then the mine train takes you 1000 m to a mining area of the
19th century. Exhibits from the very beginning till the modern
times show the development of the mining techniques and are
also explained and demonstrated there. The trip below surface
for up to 31 people takes 75 minutes.
Special guided tours can be booked
half a day or as a day trip in the
museum. The way to the museum is
easy to find. An interesting mining
trail begins at the mining museum
leading through the old mining area
of a length of 4 km. The two ways
witness copper mining from 14th to
19th century among it geologic
outcrops, water facilities, costeaning
ditches, mine dumps and a ventilation
oven. The mining trail passes the
lake Kunstteich built in 1728 and
used for mining purposes till 1880.
Here we can have a romantic rest in
the Waldcafe at the Kunstteich. If the
sun is shining the self-baked cake is
also served at the terrace. Guided tours can be booked on
request at the mining museum Wettelrode.

Rogenstein – Roestone Schlösschenkopf at Lengefeld ( 5 )
The Schlösschenkopf raises between
Sangerhausen and Lengefeld, crowned by the
Moltkewarte a look out built in 1903 at its
highest point (N 51°29.573, E011°16.245).
Following the signs you can easily find the
walking path from Lengefeld to the
Roestone was mainly used as construction
material. It was exploited from several small
quarries in the surrounding area of the
Moltkewarte. Near these sites we
can often see houses, churches
and walls built with Roestone.
This lime comes from the lower
bunter. About 240 million years
ago this area was covered by a
plane, warm, oversalted sea. Very
small sandy lime pearls (so-called
ooides) were formed in the moving
water looking like roe and
therefore called like that.
Karst Karst walking path South Harz
The karst walking path was built in 1982
and opens up the mountain range of the
anhydrite karst with its geologic features.
Some of the geologic points are set right
at the Karst walking path. Stretching along
200 km the walking path connects the
karst landscape of the south Harz across
the borders of the federal states Saxony
Anhalt, Thuringia and Lower Saxony. This
path follows mostly historic ways and is
marked in the Landmark 12 white red white. Showboards
give more information on karst features at certain points.
Numerous trails show witnesses of historic mining, mainly
copper mining, the bed of which (Flöz) goes from Pölsfeld in
the east to Ilfeld in the west. The villages along the karst
walking path have kept their typical unique feature and fit
harmonic into the surroundings. The village Hainrode was
even awarded with the silver medal in the federal competition
Our village shall be nicer in 2004.
Dinsterbachschwinde near
Questenberg ( 6 )
About one kilometre east of Questenberg not
far away from the road to Hainrode lays the
Dinsterbachschwinde as the biggest swallow
hole in the area of the karst walking path. It is
the place where the creek Dinsterbach continues
its way below the surface. At this place you will
find an information board. Wal king along the
grassland we reach the next board after five
minutes which informs about the swallow hole
right at its place. A further swallow hole, the
Ankenbergschwinde, is at the bottom of the
Ankenberg between Hainrode and
Bauerngraben ( 7 )
West of Questenberg we find the Bauerngraben,
a sink in the valley of the Glasebach,
which disappears at this place in a swallow
hole of a small river under a steep high karst
moun tain range. The sink itself fills from
time to time with water and then often
forms a lake at other times it gets very dry
again. The car park at the road from Roßla
to Agnesdorf is a favourable start for a walk
to the Bauerngraben. You can follow the
signs and showboards explaining the
geological background.
In and around Questenberg Alabaster balls, glacial pans and
other witnesses of geology ( 8 )
other witnesses of geology ( 8 )
Embedded in the deep
break through valley of the
Nasse set in a unique
landscape we can find the
site Questenberg, marked
by the Queste.
The so-called Queste is a
sun symbol erected on top
of the Questenberg. The
saga says that the daughter
of the castle lord lost her
way when picking flowers
in the forest. Inhabitants of
the surrounding villages searched the child for the worried
parents. The child was finally found on the grassland near
Rotha at the third day of Pentecost sitting there with a crest,
which had two tassels. The castle lord gave an opulent
reward to the inhabitants. Since that day the green Queste
has been set up on the 3 day of Pentecost every year. The
so-called Questenfest takes some days and has been
celebrated since centuries. Gypsum with alabaster balls is
outcropping at the rock face at the eastern slope of the
Questenberg. Alabaster balls are formed out of calcium
sulfate, gathered at single places within the mother rocks
before hardening and then later indurated forming the
so-called alabaster balls. If you go on the road coming from
Hainrode you will have the best sight on it. The glacial pans
at the bottom of the Questenberg northern of the village are
also interesting. A showboard right at the place explains the
geology to visitors. Remarkable geology can also be found at
the breakthrough of the Nasse through the Wippra Zone,
about 1 kilometre above the Questenberg. Slates of the
Palaeozoic (Ordovician and Silurian) form impressive rock
faces. Starting your walk in Questenberg you can reach this
area in a 15 minutes walk.
Not far away from the village on the Schloss berg the ruin of
the Questen burg is dated
back to 13th century. It
was occupied by military
during the 30 year war
(1618 1648). Rocks of
the surrounding area
formed the con struction
material for it. Among
these you can find Zechstein
limestone, slates,
bunter and anhydrite.
The wooden Roland, a
symbol of the village,
and the neck iron at the
outer wall of the church
are symbols of lower
Heimkehle near Uftrungen ( 9 )
Todays border between the federal
states Thuringia and Saxony-Anhalt is in
the area of the Alte Stolberg marked by
one of the largest karst caves in
Germany, the Heimkehle. The visitors
entrance of the Heimkehle is western to
the road between Rottleberode and
Berga in Saxony-Anhalt (N51°29.833;
E010°57.283). Visitors can see 750 m of the cave with a total
size of about 2 km. The way around leads to corridors and halls
among them the Große Dom, 22 m high. The Heimkehle was
first mentioned in a border document, dated back to 1735, first
attempts for opening up were made in 20th century. During
World War II a production plant of the Junkers Werke was
installed and the Heimkehle became an external camp of the
concentration camp Mittelbau-Dora (Landmark 7 ). Artificial
accesses were destroyed by blasting in 1946. Opening for
visitors was not before 1954. The large Heim kehle owes its
formation the meeting and rock solution force of the small
rivers Thyra with the Krebsbach and the Krummschlachtbach.

The Krebsbachwand near
Rottleberode ( 10 )
South west of Rottleberode the Alte
Stolberg peaks the Aue from the Thyra
and the Krebsbach with an area level
up to 100 m high. The Krebsbachwand
is a significant part of the soluble wall
of the Alte Stolberg marked by gypsum
quarrying. In that area of the wall the
gypsuming rate of the anhydrite was
higher than the solution rate of
gypsum, thus forming a 10 30 m
strong gypsum crust at the surface over the lower laying
anhydrite till the beginning of gypsum quarrying. This
gypsum crust was exploited between 1950 and 1990.
However, the precipice of the Krebsbachwand remained.
Re cultivation measures of the company Knauf bound the
Krebs bachwand into the sur rounding karst landscape aiming
to rebuild stable forests. However, a big part of poor rock
area, keeping visibly the geologic ground, forms a biotope for
rare species. Due to ongoing surface mining operations in
border areas of the Krebsbachwand the exposures are
unfortunately not accessible.
At the Geopoint visitors can find the most typical rock types
of the deposit. You can reach the Geopoint from the lake
Schlossteich in Rottleberode, driving through the Schlossstraße.
Passing the cemetery you will find the Geopoint
directly at the right roadside.
Neue Morungsburg ( 11 )
The ruins of the two fortresses Alt and Neu
Morungen are not far away from Morungen.
Alt Morungen was given up after erecting
Neu Morungen around 1200. We can find
bunter, Zechstein limestone and slates of the
sur roun ding area in the walls of the fortresses.
The region around Morungen can offer many
various geologic multiforms. Beside the Wippra
Zone stretching northern along the site
with its metamorphic rocks we can also see
conglomerates, catching the eye with a significant red. Close
to the Wippra Zone an ore veine goes along the area with
barite and yellow copper ore. We can easily see that ore veine
in an exposure below the Neue Morungs burg close to the
forest way in the valley northern the valley border
Open air museum
Königspfalz Tilleda ( 12 )
Königspfalz Tilleda ( 12 )
The Königspfalz set on the hill Pfingstberg
is close to the northern slope of the Kyffhäuser
mountains. Erected in 972 the Kyffhäuser
was a wedding present from
emperor OTTO II (955 983) for his
Byzantine wife THEOPHANO (about 955
991). Tilleda belonged to the most famous
palatinates of the empire till the late
medieval times. Fundaments and parts of the buildings were
exposed and partly reconstructed by substantial exca vations.
Today the whole facility forms a unique open air museum
showing an insight into peoples life in the medieval time. The
constructions are built from sandstone and dolomite, which
were quarried in the surrounding area. Millstone was broken
not far away from Tilleda in Thuringia. Witnesses can be seen
along the 4.5 km stretching walking way Auf den Spuren der
Mühlsteine (On the trails of millstones) starting at the
Streuobstzentrum in Tilleda.

Reservoir Helme ( 13 )
At the end of Kelbra towards Sondershausen there is the
Helmestausee, over 600 hectares in size. Parts of the reservoir
(emptied in winter) is Ramsar wetland of international
importance and European bird protection area. More than
20,000 cranes regularly roost here in autumn. Beginning at the
parking place we follow our way towards west to the Numburg
through the riparial wood. Not far behind the Numburg, close
to the shore line a salt spring comes to the surface, eluviating
enbedded rocksalt and potassiferous salt layers of the Zechstein
and smelling like sulphur. Beside it you can find the ruins of a
small quarry with bunter.
Prehistoric mammoth skeleton Sangerhausen with Spengler
Museum ( 14 )
In the Spengler
Museum you can
adventure 6000
years of human
settlement in the
region of Sangerhausen.
About 2000
exhibits are shown
in six different
sections (geology,
nature study, palaeo
n tology, pre history,
town history,
mining). The biggest attraction is the complete skeleton of the
old mammoth. The first parts of the animal were discovered
in the ice-aged layers of the gravel pit near Edersleben in
September 1930. The local researcher ADOLF SPENGLER (1869
1961) saved the skeleton in the years 1932 and 1933.
Spenglers home in the old town of Sangerhausen was opened
as an external museum in 2001. Walking from the museum
you can reach it by foot in about 15 minutes.
The museums administration offers guided tours and project
days as special programmes.
Sangerhausen is mentioned in a document from the 10th
century. Around 1249 Sangerhausen got the town right and
thus the permission to erect a town wall. The old town with its
widely renovated buildings is worth visiting. The church St.
Ulrici is dated back to the first half of the 12th century showing
a treasure of Roman esque architecture. The gothic church St.
Jacobi is also lovely to see with its rich interior design and
decoration. Sanger hausens
history has been connected
with the Saxonian dynasty of
the Wettiner since 1246. In
1815 Sanger hausen became
Prus sian and de- veloped to an
important indus trial area
within the second half of 19th
century. Town development
has been formed by copper
ore mining and metallurgy
since 14th century.
The remarkable Rosarium,
built in 1903, shows the most
famous rose collection of the world.

Member Frequently Asked Questions
The more high tech the world becomes the more high touch people crave.
Q)Why does the feedback have to be externally monitored?
The number one reason that Customers cite for not giving feedback is the fact that they don't think anything will change. By having feedback go via a third party it is a clear statement to the customer that their feedback is significant and does contribute to the overall rating that the business earns.
Q)What if we get negative feedback?
This is not all bad. Negative feedback can be helpful to a business as it identifies a previously unknown weakness that can be quickly evaluated and corrected.
Q)Is this feedback really necessary?
Best answer to that is the person who pays your wage is the Customer – are they really happy? Remember – a happy Customer is the best job security on the planet.
Q)Where is the best place for the feedback link?
Simple - ask for feedback on Customer Service at every opportunity. At least the front page but also think about any page off which the customer purchases from or gains information about your products or services. You may display the feedback link as many times as you wish on your web page.
Q)Will it seem that I'm always pestering the customer?
Each and Every transaction (visit) is vital to invite feedback because Customers' rate your business based on their last experience. Regular Customers will see your accreditation improving as well.
Q)How do I respond to negative feedback?
The Golden Rule:- Make a personal commitment to respond positively to all Customer Feedback. Customers who genuinely don't care don't give feedback; customers who take time to give feedback are giving you a chance to respond.
Q)What if the customer is "just visiting"?
You, your family, and your friends, all deserve good Customer Service every time you spend money; equally every customer that invests their time on your web page deserves an excellent service experience.
Q)Will my customers resist filling in the same form?
While the form remains the same the layout is randomized for accuracy of responses and to stimulate customers to consider each response.
Q)Why put all this effort into customer service?
Never forget the Customer can always choose where to spend their money. As all markets become more generic it is the service experience that differentiates competitors.
Q)Who should drive this process in our company?
Always remember, "Customer Service starts with me". The service department fails to respond to an enquiry – every manager and every member of the service department needs to know we blew it. The service department receives a complimentary feedback – every manager and every member of the service department needs to know we did well.

[This report was produced for "Earth Beat" of Radio Netherlands Worldwide as part of a look at "megacities".]
Home to over 21 million people, Mexico City is the largest urban area in the Western Hemisphere. While its smog is world famous, its haphazard expansion has led to another environmental issue; it's water system can't cope. We sent Earth Beat correspondent Shannon Young to the city to look into the issues behind its those water problems.
Live stand up next to river: "I'm standing along a stretch of the Magdalena River that comes through Mexico City proper. And at this point, it is a grey/green/brown mass of relatively viscous liquid. And there's a small cascade here. It consists of a concrete block with broken tree branches and lots of garbage. I see a bottle of bleach, a rusty can of spray paint, lots of shredded tatters of plastic bags, some broken styrofoam plates, pieces of clothes…and it's all really stinky." (fade under river tone)
The Rio Magdalena is the only river considered to have any life within the limits of Mexico City. It originates in a forested area in the mountains west of the city, but is a putrid mess by the time it reaches the city's southern edge.
Nearly all of the other rivers that used to exist in the city have since become vehicles for transporting sewage out of the metropolitan area.
AMBI: pumped water gushing into the giant septic tank (bed under)
Some of that water comes through here – the Aculco pumping station. Here, veteran engineer Jorge Chang Castro points out the sewage that's being pumped into a giant concrete pool under our feet. The plant mixes sewage and storm water together and pumps them towards the main tunnels out of the city.
All of the water expelled from the main drainage systems is untreated and is used by farmers downstream for irrigation.
[fade out pumping station ambi]
But Mexico City's pumping stations operate with outdated equipment. The Aculco station is at least 40 years old. When the pumps seize up, Julio Cesar Cu Camara has to go below the surface to manually unblock the pumps.
CLIP Julio Cesar Cu Camara 1 (translated): "The most common problem is garbage. All of the city's litter ends up here, in the drainage system and it obstructs the pumps, the metal grates, the hatches. It's always been the city's biggest problem – the amount of trash thrown into the drains."
Cu Camara is one of only a handful of sewage divers in the world …and one of only 2 working in Mexico City. The divers work blind because there's no visibility in the raw sewage.
CLIP Julio Cesar Cu Camara 2 (translated): "I think the worst thing to find is a human being, because we've found bodies of people and we don't know who they are. But there are also other outrageous things. I've found everything from cigarette butts to bits of cars and trucks, big tires, furniture, fridges, microwaves. We find all of it in the sewers. You've got to ask yourself how it got there? But there it is – it's crazy. We'll be down there working and be like 'let's see what this is here' and we'll feel around think 'hmm this feels like a tire, ok let's get it out of there.' Then there will be something else – a tree trunk. So we get it out. And then suddenly we'll be like 'here's something strange - a fridge! Hey – there's a fridge here!' Well, we have to get it out. But how does it all get there? Nobody knows."
Fade under sound… [END OF PACK]
Marnie Chesterton: That was a pack by Shannon Young in Mexico City. Shannon joins us now. Shannon – it sounds disgusting! I hope you had a bath after that.
Shannon Young: Yes…and I thought twice about where I was going to eat lunch.
MC: Oh, I'm so sorry we sent you there. Why are things so bad? Is this a city full of people putting fridges down the sewers or is this simply a question of not keeping up with infrastructure?
SY: Well, one if the main problems is that the water system there is not designed to separate the storm water from the sewage. So, that's problem #1. They're pumped together untreated out of the valley Mexico City is located in via an artificial opening into a river.
While the city pumps polluted water out of the valley, it also has to pump up from more than 1000 meters below the surface its potable water.
MC: That's really deep!
SY: Yeah, more than a kilometer.
I spoke with Arsenio Gónzalez of the national university's Program for City Studies, and he says the problem with water in Mexico City is historical. Originally the valley where Mexico City is located was home to a system of 5 lakes, but in 1607 Spanish colonizers created an artificial canyon to drain these lakes and send raw sewage out of the city. And this pumping of the groundwater from below the surface has caused the city to sink in some areas by 10 or more meters.
MC: But surely Shannon the water infrastructure's has been adapted or improved since then…
SY: There were three major public works projects in the 20th century that created other – or expanded upon – existing artificial outlets for the city's sewage. But plans to recharge the area's aquifers were neglected. Gónzalez says they're essentially bringing in clean water at ever higher costs, dirtying it, then pumping it out of the valley.
CLIP Arsenio Gonzalez (translated): "What we're seeing is that modern-day Mexico City, which is a city of 20 million inhabitants, gets around 70 percent of its water from underground sources… All the storm water and sewage is expelled to another watershed. So the problem is that the city isn't self-sufficient with the water it has in its own watershed."
SY: Like I said earlier, storm water and sewage is combined in Mexico, which is unusual for a large city. Deputy director of Mexico City's pumping stations, Jorge Chang Castro says it's time for officials to invest in separating the two types of waste water.
CLIP Jorge Chang Castro (translated): "It's been 70 years already and we're still working with this same idea. It's time to change it. The government needs to invest money to separate the water. A few neighborhoods here and there have started to separate their water, but it needs to be done on a larger scale. Why? Because we need to use the rain water to recharge the aquifers. Or hell, build a dam!"
SY: Chang Castro says another potential source of potable water is the Magdalena River and that it's important to make sure that it
doesn't get contaminated as it enters the city. But as you heard earlier, the restoration of this polluted section of the Magdalena River seems like a distant reality.
CLIP Arturo Rivas Montaño 1: "en mi infancia el agua era un poqito mas clara. Inclusive se veían las piedras qe estaban en el río, osea piedras peqeñitas y pasaba el agua. Si si habia piedras." (SY translates.)
SY: That's forty-nine year old Arturo Rivas Montaño. He grew up in the district of Coyoacán and says that when he was a kid, the water was clear enough to see the stones on the bottom.
CLIP Arturo Rivas Montaño 2: "Lo qe me comentan mis abuelos, que también ellos son de aquí nativos, qe antes, en sus tiempos de ellos iban a lavar la ropa, el agua era un poqito mas limpia. En aqel entonces ellos le nombraban el acueducto qe era la parte qe ellos iban alla a lavar su ropa. Entonces mis abuelos decían qe el agua era muy clara muy limpia y no había ninguna enfermedad. Ahora ya no." (SY translates).
Rivas says his grandparents can recall times when people were able to wash their clothes in the river. The water was very clean and didn't carry sicknesses. That's not the case anymore.
MC: Right…yeah. Like you said at the beginning; rusty spray cans, plastic bags, concrete blocks, fridges. But even if this river is rescued, it sounds like Mexico City's water issues are way bigger than a single river is going to solve…
SY: Yeah, you're right. Another huge problem in Mexico City is the fact that the city is sinking. When they originally built these pumping plants more than 40 years ago, they were built on the outskirts of the city. Now those areas have become heavily populated. As the city sinks, there's no longer this force of gravity to send the waste water to the pumping stations.
A couple of areas of the city have even experienced sewage floods – where it goes into the homes. And if the main tunnel that expels sewage from the city we to experience some major problems, a huge swath of Mexico City – from the airport into the downtown area – would flood with sewage
MC: Ummm – not good. I guess the question is will they opt for new and preventative ways – or continue with the 400 year old model of bringing it in, polluting it, and the spending energy on pumping it away again?
SY: Well, most people who work with water issues in Mexico City say that it's also clear the city's water problems require not only new ideas from engineers and city planners, but there also needs to be a political will to finance it and to really move these projects forward. There also need to be participation from the citizenry and the various sectors of this massive city's population to make it work.
It requires a major change in the mindset of the general population and that's not something that's easy to achieve.

Just read this story today about kids abusing each other from as young as 11 years old. How the hell did people allow things to go so far?
I see two causes for this disgusting situation:
1. Perpetuating a culture of instant gratification.
2. Lack of appropriate consequences for actions. i.e. Punitive measures specifically.
Firstly, kids now expect to have their desires satisfied immediately, so if the opportunity presents itself, it doesn't matter what the feelings and well being of other people are, they just take what they want and if this means raping someone, in their minds it's fine.
This is made worse by the fact there is a serious lack of appropriate consequences for their actions. Their are no punitive measures. These kids are molly cuddled tip-tied around when what they really need is a bloody good hiding. But the society we live in are a bunch of idiots who are focusing on trees and forgetting the forest. Myopic, naive decision making and ignorance of the bigger picture has led to this.
Fine, maybe a hiding is not the right response (although history would say otherwise, the previous generation were much, much better in general and by all accounts). Well then, I don't know, march them through the streets and shame them. Make the action they've committed relevant to their context… What if what they did happened to their mother or sister or daughter? Is there a way of making them see things differently? Of course there is. Make the punishment spending time helping people with far less than they have… Do SOMETHING to change their perspective.
We need to start being a bit clever and brave to get out of this ridiculous situation where people are afraid of making the right decisions for the greater good of society and, more importantly, more well-rounded and good-mannered children who are a benefit to society and not a hindrance.

But seriously. If you're thinking seriously about killing yourself, please do a favor for your loved ones and yourself and get some help. It's out there, waiting. You just have to call.

Daniel Gardner took a personal day yesterday complaining of "overworked typing fingers", so I stepped up to the keyboard to share some thoughts on catching mice for the good readers of mX.
That's right.
You may find it easier to read this textual version…
David M. Green on Mice
At first it sounds quaint or cosy – late at night to see a furry little creature curiously scurrying along the kitchen floor – but when one becomes three or four, and suddenly there's rodents exploring cupboards, bedrooms and electrical cables, you've got a mouse problem.
Mice will eat anything. They'll nibble through plastic to get to the loaf of bread. They once ate through my housemate's underpants in our wicker laundry basket, through which they also ate.
Like skinning their natural feline predators, there are many ways to eradicate vermin. The obvious solution is to call a licensed professional ala Christopher Walken in Mousehunt.
But who has that sort of money? I can't afford to hire major Hollywood actors for such menial tasks.
Besides, where's the fun? Catching a mouse or three sounds like a great adventure.
My great grandfather caught rats in Adelaide during the Great Depression. He founded his own pest control business, so catching varmints should be in my blood.
Poison is an option. But not all poisons work immediately. You might find yourself with a decomposing carcass in an unreachable location. Not good for entertaining.
I say go for a trap.
Some years ago at a mouse-infested share house, my housemates and I built our own Wile E. Coyote-style trap consisting of a soup pot, a stick and a long piece of string. We just needed a small sign reading "Free Cheese" to complete the illusion.
Three housemates, a decade of university education between us, sat silently in the dark, trying not to laugh, waiting for a mouse to unwittingly crawl beneath the pot. But those mice are fast. When one did finally inch under, I pulled the string to release the stick but by the time the pot dropped, the mouse was long gone.
It was a blessing in disguise really – we hadn't thought ahead as to what we would do once we actually caught the mouse, alive.
But if you're buying a proper mouse trap, there are some traps for young players (pardon the pun).
Firstly, don't use a RAT trap. Rat traps are for trapping rats. Not mice.
Mice are too light and nimble to activate the trigger on a big rat trap – they just lick it clean and mockingly leave it for you to find the next morning.
The best type of mouse trap is the classic wooden design with the metal spring-loaded snapping bar mechanism. They're also very cheap – two for a dollar from your nearest discount retailer.
But still, these traps can suffer the same problem. The mice simply eat the bait with the gentlest of gnawing and live to scurry another day.
A great tip is to use peanut butter for bait, and smear it all over the trap. If the mouse has to crawl all over the trap it's bound to slip up and SNAP!
But for the animal lovers, the best tactic might be to just learn to co-exist with our furry friends. That is of course until you can afford a nicer place.
Kind regards,
David M. Green
There's a mouse next to my computer!

If this report were even remotely accurate, then why are states attempting to opt out?
I'll tell you why; the now that when they spend that "dollar" they will be left holdoing the bag along with tab. That's why!!!

The educators at Hudson Learning Center know that all students have their own strengths and weaknesses. That's why the center's tutoring process begins with an assessment, during which the center's tutors identify specific areas for improvement and create challenging yet obtainable goals. Then—during either private or group sessions—they work with pupils to improve skills in math, reading, history, or pretty much any other subject. They can also help older students prepare for important tests, like the SAT and ACT.
In addition to their structured tutoring, Hudson Learning Center's staff hosts an after-school homework help program. From 3–4:30 p.m., tutors stand ready to help students complete assignments, study for exams, or wait out the necessary quarantine periods after cooties outbreaks.
The EPA-certified technicians at Green Air HVAC help homeowners maintain all aspects of their home's heating and cooling, improving the interior air quality while eliminating pollutants such as mites, dust, and bacteria. The staff can work from the ground up, installing complete heating and cooling systems that match the needs and size accommodations of a new home, or conduct a detailed audit of existing systems to spot potential inefficiencies. In a continued effort to rein in energy costs, technicians can also clean air ducts and dryer vents or install remote systems that control the home's temperature through an iPhone app instead of an outdated mainframe.
The dog lovers at Hounds on the Hudson believe that a pet owner's peace of mind is equally important as the pet's happiness. To put minds at ease, the daycare and boarding facility's webcams enable clients to check up on their canine counterparts online. What they'll see is dogs galloping around the 1,500-square-foot outdoor run, or pups playing poker in the four indoor play spaces. The highly trained staffers keep dogs under 24-hour supervision and reward good behaviors to maintain a comfortable, positive environment. For overnight boarding, furry guests snooze on raised Kuranda beds inside climate-controlled suites. Dogs in need of obedience training can also practice good manners with trainers that have been featured on Animal Planet's Underdog to Wonderdog.
The certified technicians at New Magic Carpet keep abodes sparkling inside and out with cleaning and refurbishing services ranging from window washing to grout restoration. Traveling to homes to perform carpet and upholstery cleanings, the IIRC-certified clean teams pre-treat high-traffic areas before cleansing fibers with truck-mounted equipment and 100% nontoxic solutions. The company also offers spring-cleaning services such as interior vacuuming, sweeping, dusting, and scrubbing sessions performed with oversize toothbrushes.
By November, the crisp autumn air takes on a blustery winter chill, and cumbersome winter coats begin to take the place of stylish fall jackets. This change in fashion goes hand in hand with the change in seasons and with the philosophy of Mausam Indian Cuisine. The restaurant's name means "seasons" in Hindi, and Mausam's elegant three-story space boasts a restaurant, a lounge, and two versatile banquet halls, ready to change to accommodate a client's request for any and every kind of event. Mausam's staff can adapt table settings from simple and elegant pearl-white cloths with minimal accoutrements to bold colors with bountiful bouquets at every turn. Eager to please, the staff will even trade in the house specialty, Indian food, for any cuisine the client wishes to bring themselves, such as Mexican, Italian, or Lunchables.
Patrons simply looking for a low-key dinner out can head to the restaurant for traditional Indian favorites, such as chicken tikka masala, spicy goat curry, and plenty of vegetarian options laced with fragrant Indian spices. Red and white wines and a dozen kinds of domestic and imported beers wash away the last morsels of dessert, such as black-and-white cream puffs or orange-pineapple ice cream.
In 1990, John Ziegler hired a dog walker to take his 8-month-old yellow lab Merembe out on regular walks. The plan was to escort the rambunctious pup to Central Park, where she could enjoy fresh air and social time around other dogs and people. Just to make sure he was getting what he paid for, John followed the dog walker—and discovered that Merembe spent the entire hour cooped up in a tiny apartment while the walker went on errands. The indignation that any dog owner would feel at this discovery is what prompted John to found Biscuits & Bath, an all-encompassing dog-care company that strives for transparency, knowledge, and compassion in all they do.
A bounty of doggy knowledge backs every service at Biscuits & Bath, whether it's grouping dogs by size and temperament at daycare to balance safety and fun, or pairing groomers' image-enhancing brush-outs with checks for ticks, ear infections, and unusual basketball ability. True to the company's roots, each dog walker is bonded, insured, and thoroughly trained to take beloved friends on a daily romp. Dogs are kept safe from big-city hazards by donning two slip collars, a climb-spec harness, and a reinforced nylon leash, allowing the company to boast nearly one million incident-free walks in 2011. On-site veterinarian services give pups a checkup incentive with the center's play-filled environment, and overnight boarding services keep timid dogs at ease with constant supervision and flexibility with special requirements.

mac OS app not loading

Matinique Moments: weekend watch
Posted in Fashion / Fashion blog / Fashion photo shoots / Fashion pictures
There's one downside to Mads Feldballe's fashion film for Danish label Matinique: after you watch it, you're left feeling unsatisfied. Not because the model (Texas Olsson) isn't perfectly cast, the art direction by Lars Dyhr perfectly considered, or the music by Julie Collings perfectly chosen. But because the cinematography of a lonely Las Vegas is so good, you're left wishing it was a full-length feature.
A particularly ambiant way of presenting menswear through film, you can watch the video after the break.

« The End of the GOP? |
| Avoiding 'T-for-Terrorism' »
Surprise! Republican Leaders Have No BackboneOn January 1, 2012 the Republican leadership broke their promise about not raising taxes on the rich. "The deal passed by the Senate early this morning, with the endorsement of all but seven of the 47 Republicans, would raise $620 billion in new revenue, hiking tax rates on households earning more than $450,000 a year." "'Keep in mind that just last month Republicans in Congress said they would never agree to raise tax rates on the wealthiest Americans,' President Obama said Monday. 'Obviously, the agreement that's currently being discussed would raise those rates and raise them permanently.'" It reminds me of the speech that Yaron Brook gave at the Tea Party Patriots Summit in Arizona February 25, 2011 when he talked about the Republicans having a hard time with the budget. He said, "They don't have a principle." The Founding Fathers had a principle. I find it interesting that for all the attention that the Founding Fathers are getting right now, people are still missing the one principle that they stood for, a principle without which there never would have been a United States of America. It is this single idea that all the rest of their ideas rested upon and it is how they came up with our unique system of government. Does any Republican leader even know what that one principle is, let alone stick to it? Yet the Founders were willing to risk their lives and everything they had for it -- the principle of individual rights. Individual rights are spelled out very clearly in the Declaration of Independence: Our rights are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness (our happiness, not anyone else's). They went on to say that the government was created among men to protect those rights. And that is all the government should be doing. It is very depressing to see these Republicans just bow down to the wicked, to our enslavers, and give them everything they want. The men of today have absolutely nothing in common with the men of 1776. Yaron Brook pointed this out about the Founding Fathers: "They didn't say, 'We just want a little bit less taxes, please, King George.' They didn't say, 'Give us some liberty, please, King George.' They changed the world because they asked a fundamental question. And the question they asked is, 'Who does your life -- does my life -- belong to?' That's a question that people had never asked, because it was always obvious: your life belongs to the state, to the king, to some emperor, to somebody else -- and it's your job to do his bidding. The Founders of this country said 'No: sovereignty belongs with the individual. My life is mine. Your life is yours. And nobody can take that away -- not a king; but not even a majority!" Until politicians come forth that understand this principle and have the courage to act on this principle there will be no change. We can just count on more compromises as they bend over to satisfy those who want to control our lives. And our time is running out. Charlotte Cushman is a Montessori educator at Minnesota Renaissance School, Anoka, Minnesota and has been involved in the study of Ayn Rand's philosophy since 1970. |

Shultz, Ida Mae
Posted By: Dale Motschman
Date: 21 August 2003
The Shultz Family of Darke County, Ohio
The Biography of Ida Mae Shultz
Daughter of George Washington Shultz and Sarah Marie Hunter
by Francis D. Motschman, Sr.Ida Mae Shultz was born in the Ansonia, Darke County area on Wash Day, Mon., March 19, 1866. Ida Mae, as soon as she was old enough, was a big help around the house and was especially close to her mother, Sarah. She liked the idea of being a mother and having her own home. It is no wonder, then, that she married at seventeen years old.
We don't know how Benjamin Kenworthy and Ida Mae Shultz met, but meet they did and theirs was a lifelong love. Benjamin lived in Camden, Preble County and arrived to live with his mother and father on Sat., November 1, 1862. He may have been an only child as no siblings are on record. Anyway, in 1883 seventeen year old Ida Mae and 21 year old Benjamin got married on Sun., December 30th and if his farm grew at the rate his family grew over the next 22 years they would have been extremely wealthy.
First to come along was Ora Burns Kenworthy b. Sat., October 25, 1884 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. He died on Sun., March 10, 1974 in Greenville Twp., Darke County, Ohio.
#2. was Homer Carlos Kenworthy b. Tue., December 28, 1886 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio and he died on Thu., February 25, 1965, in Greenville Twp., Darke County, Ohio.
"Homer always had a twinkle in his eye and loved to tease."
__Maxine Kenworthy Didier, Niece.
#3. Chalmer Boyd Kenworthy b. Thu., August 22, 1889 in Sherwood, Preble Co., Ohio. He died in Greenville Twp., Darke Co., Ohio on Mon., November 22, 1982. Married Lura L. Olwine, Thu., August 9, 1917. She was born in Van Buren Twp., Ohio and died on Tue., September 9, 1930.
According to Maxine Kenworthy Didier, a Niece, Chalmer farmed up until Lura's death. After that he raised bee's and sold honey from his home, near Greenville, Darke Co., Ohio. His sister Theresa kept house for him then.
#4. Willard Sherman Kenworthy b. Tue., August 11, 1891 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio and died in Troy, Miami Co., Ohio on Sun., March 18, 1962.
"Uncle Williard lived in Preble County, Ohio during the early years of his marriage but I only remember him living near Bradford, Ohio, where he moved after all of his children were born. He resembled my father more than any of the other children, I think."
__Maxine Kenworthy Didier, niece.
#5. Rosa Lucille Kenworthy b. Thu., December 21, 1893 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. Passed away on Sun., August 21, 1977 in Hamilton, Butler Co., Ohio.
"I always considered my Aunt Rosie and Uncle Martin my 'Rich' aunt and uncle. I knew they weren't any richer than others but their life style was so different than my other relatives, most of whom lived a rural life style. I adored her for this difference, the fact that she was always dressed so neatly, every hair in place, tiny Gold earings in her ears and always able to handle things in a calm manner. Uncle Martin was a calm quiet man. I always thought it so wonderful that he always wore a dress shirt rather than the blue denim shirts favored by my father and most of his brothers."
__ Maxine Kenworthy Didier, Niece, Oct. 30, 2002[fdm042503.ged.FBK.FTW]"'Rosie', the family name for her was a gentle person." (Maxine Kenworthy Didier_Niece)
#6. David Kenworthy b. Wed., December 4, 1895 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. He left this life on Sat., July 11, 1981 in Somerville, Butler Co., Ohio
"He was one of those people who was always positive and a favorite among all his nieces and nephews because of this. Always a smile on his face and he could wiggle his ears!! I loved for him to do this when I was little. My dad always drove down to David's to have his car worked on until Uncle David was no longer able to do the work. Aunt Edna died first and Uncle David missed her terribly."
Maxine Kenworthy Didier, Niece, November, 2002.
#7. Walter George Kenworthy b. Wed., February 16, 1898 Near Ansonia, Darke Co., Ohio. Died on Sun., June 19, 1983 in Greenville Twp., Darke Co., Ohio.
#8. Viola Ethel Kenworthy b. Tue., April 3, 1900 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. She died in Lewisburg, Ohio on Thu., November 15, 1900, just 7 mos. old.
#9. Edward Kenworthy was born on Thu., August 29, 1901 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio.
#10. Sadie Ellen Kenworthy b. Wed., September 3, 1902. d. Thu., April 17, 1969 in Greenville Twp., Darke County, Ohio.
#11. Olive Frances Kenworthy, a special child born Tue., February 14, 1905, Valentine's Day, in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. d. Tue., June 20, 1989. Married True Denzel Hoffman, another special child born on Wed., November 3, 1897. He died Fri., July 23, 1969
"Olive was very small at birth. My father told of how they kept her warm by laying her on the oven door. She never grew as tall as the other sister's and brother's ( although none of them were real tall). She was never able to learn well, or so they thought. I think that had they allowed her to do more, they would have been surprised at all she could do. She was very interested in birthdays and anniversaries and kept a record on all of these. Many of the facts that we have came from her records. We children all adored her. She was our size and always interested in each of us.
Her marriage to True caused great unhappiness in the family as she was not considered mature enough to marry. He was a neighbor who also had mental limitations but his family had left him a home and some money so they went out on their own."
Maxine Kenworthy Didier, Niece
#12. Theresa Laura Kenworthy b. Fri., March 3, 1911 in Lewisburg, Preble Co., Ohio. d. Sun., March 6, 1983 in Greenville Twp., Darke Co., Ohio. She married Lowell Robeson on Fri., November 18, 1949.
"Her marriage came about after a long courtship and they were divorced within two years. She moved in with Uncle Chalmer after his wife died and never left. I was very close to my aunt in her later years but I always felt sorry that she had missed out on so much in life because she followed what ever Uncle Chalmer told her. She was by no means a meek woman, but with no job and not being able to drive, I guess she never felt able to leave. She would never have wanted anyone to feel sorry for her.

Special for The Willits News
For three years St. John's Lutheran Church in Willits has sponsored a German class for the community. Under the tutelage of Katarina Gassen and Kurt Ackermann, the class has thrived and students have become more proficient in the language.
There is a need for a class at another time for those who cannot make Monday morning classes, so they would like to expand and add additional classes, scheduling them at different times.
If you are proficient in the German language and looking for a unique way to serve others, please contact Frau Katharina Gassen at 459-1992 and ask for "Kathy." Be prepared to share what level of the language you are most comfortable teaching: beginning, intermediate, or advanced, and your background and experience.

It is one of the most traditional products of Spain, and this is one of the places where you can find the most delicious variety. Also, not very pricy. It is famous but it deserves its fame.
It is one of the most traditional products of Spain, and this is one of the places where you can find the most delicious variety. Also, not very pricy. It is famous but it deserves its fame.
Awesome place :) cheap and interesting. 1€ for good sandwich and also dor beer, extra tomato 0,50 €. Every order = snacks - jamon, chorizo, iberica, queso, olives (!!! Best in Madrid), chips... Crew is very polite and happy, they gonna recognize u after 1 visit and I'm sure that it won't be last visit. They have normal restaurant menu,... More
We went there with my wife and brothers to eat some snacks. We ordered a few beers and some ham which was good and the prices were very inexpensive. I would go back to enjoy a light meal.
This is a kind of a large deli with food and drink. Do try jamon (ham) in the Museo del Jamon, but try jamon de bellota. Along with a glass of beer and a small sandwitch it will be a perfect snack before dinner (or just a snack during the day).
The Museo del Jamon at the Paseo del Prado is a place where one can get a ham sandwich for an affordable price. The cafeteria is part of a chain that sells ham.
If you are looking for a quick bite, this is the place! There are a few located around the city, and 1 Euro for a sandwich is the best deal around.
Just a place to buy spanish ham (janon). The price is not better than at other supermarkets (f.ex. el Corte Ingles) and when asked if I could taste a small slice - to know what I was buying - the sellsman was extremely rude, denying any possibility of tasting before buy. Absurd.
Good for a snack, we popped in for the promotional €1 sandwich, we had one chorizo and one cheese, then mixed the fillings. They weren't great, chorizo quite greasy, but they did the job. We went to sit down but got ushered out because we'd only had the promotional food... So yeah, only good for a snack
Really cheap option for a typical hamon paguette (bocadillo de jamon), costs 1 euro, and the bread is just getting better and better every time I go. They also have a menu and other foods. It´s not so loud as other traditional tapas bars, the barmens are not shouting all they can... but it can get really crowded fri-sat evenings.... More
This seems to be a chain of restaurants. The ones in calle mayor and puerto de sol are really good with fresh bread and ham sandwiches. Try the boc mixto-ham and cheese. We had two sandwiches, a beer and a wine; all for 5?!!! Thats a true value meal...the standing bar concept is good and moves quickly, although it was... More

What type of window cleaning service do you provide?
We use the latest in water fed pole technology to professionally and efficiently clean windows to a very high standard. Where is your window cleaning service available? Our window cleaning services are available in the following areas: Holbeach, Spalding, long Sutton, Sutton Bridge, Whaplode, Holbeach St Johns, Whaplode Drove, Crowland, Pinchbeck, Moulton, Market Deeping, Deeping St James, Deeping St Nicolas, Cowbit, Fleet, Weston, Gedney, Gedney Hill, Gosberton, Donnington and Surfleet. How much will it cost me? Each house or premises is different. The cost for cleaning your windows will be dependent on a number of factors including the number of windows, difficulty of access, hard to reach windows, type of windows and state of repair. Our prices start from as little as £8 per clean. As a guide, a three bedroom semi-detached house would cost approximately £10 per clean. I live in a 3-storey town house and I have one window above a conservatory which my current window cleaner cannot reach. How do you reach such difficult to access windows? Using a water-fed extendable pole we can usually reach previously dangerous and/or difficult aspects of your property including sky-lights and Velux windows. How regular will you clean my windows? We work on a four weekly cycle so we will aim to clean your windows every 4 weeks. This may vary slightly due to holidays, weather and sickness. We also clean on 6, 8 or 12 weekly cycles, whichever suits your needs the best. Do you use ladders? No. We use water fed poles that can reach up to 35ft so we do not require ladders. This makes the task much safer and less disruptive. What does pure water do? When pure water is used for window cleaning the impurities on the glass are held in the water, as pure water strives to return to its impure state. The glass is then given a final rinse to leave the glass totally sterile. It will usually take at least 2 -3 cleans to rinse all previous soap residues away. With spot free water, your windows dry spotless without the need of wiping the contaminates off. No detergent residue means that windows do not get dirty so quickly, your windows inevitably stay cleaner and longer. What if my back gate is locked? We can access the majority of gardens using a stepladder. Will you clean my windows on the same day every time? No, due to the varying factors affecting the schedule, it is not possible to clean your windows on the same day every time. Can you clean my windows when I am at home? Due to the difficulties with scheduling the cleaning round, it is not possible to guarantee that we can clean your property at a specific time or day. What hours do you work? Monday to Friday 08.00 - 18.00. On rare occasions we may also work on a Saturday Will you clean my windows in the rain? Yes, we will clean your windows when it is raining. Due to the unpredictable British weather it is not possible for us to schedule all our work when it is not raining. As we use a pure water system the quality of the clean is not affected by rain. Why don't you dry the windows? Because we use 100% pure water to clean, the windows dry spotless. Do you clean frames and ledges? When we use the pure water fed poles we clean all the window, including frames and ledges. How will you know when we have called? If you are out when we call we will leave a card stating that 'Your windows have been cleaned today', together with a stamped addressed envelope for you to return with your payment. What methods of payment do you accept? We accept payment in the form of cash, cheques, internet banking transfer, PayPal and BACS payments If you would like to pay by internet banking, we will supply our bank sort code and account number so you can do this. You would need to use the first line of your address as your payment reference, so that we can identify your payment. Will the water fed pole damage my windows? No, the water fed pole system will not damage your property. This is because both the brush and the water fed pole system are specially made for the purpose of cleaning windows. The water fed pole is made from fibre glass, making it very light, strong and controllable. What if I'm not happy with the service? While there are usually no problems with the quality of our service it is only human to 'miss a spot' from time to time. If you are not happy then simply call us within 24 hours and we will come out to correct any problem free of charge Can you clean my conservatory? Yes, we can clean your conservatory at an additional cost. |

The world finals of the Elite Model Look contest will be held in partnership with the fashion label Miss Sixty in London on Wednesday.
The fashion label Miss Sixty has recognized the prestige contest Elite Model Look as the best world promoter of their latest collection, and has become their main partner to celebrate the 25th birthday of this world famous model contest.
The world final of the Elite Model Look, one of the most perspective world contests for the best model, will be held on Wednesday, August 5, 2009 in London, in partnership with the fashion company Miss Sixty.
Members of the Miss Sixty fashion team, besides presiding the jury of the contest, have entered an interesting collaboration. The Miss Sixty label, which is recognizable for their cosmopolitan style, will dress the finalists of the contest.
After Gaultier and Galliano, Elite Model promotes Miss Sixty
The Elite Model Look event is celebrating its 25th anniversary of existence, and through their many years of work they have discovered some of the more famous top-models like Helena Christensen, Cindy Crawford, Gisele Bundchen and Linda Evangelista.
This world competition represents a great platform for the promotion of the fashion label Miss Sixty, because only last year more than 350,000 candidates from 55 countries applied for the contest. Recognizing Elite Model Look as a world popular choice, Miss Sixty chose this project and event as an ambassador of its quality and modern style, in order to bring their world recognizable fashion expression out to the masses worldwide.
Due to their reputation, not only as a fashion event, but as an excellent method of international (tourist) promotion, Elite Model Look has been hosted by numerous world tourist destinations like Acapulco, Rio de Janeiro, Marrakesh, Miami and Nice, and big names from the world fashion scene like Patrick Demarchelier, Linda Evangelista, Karen Mulder, Diane Kruger, Jean-Paul Gaultier and John Galliano presided over the prestige contest.
Stressed waist and eternal denim in autumn collection
The current Miss Sixty collection for autumn/winter 2009 brings a return to the pop-culture style of the 1980s, celebrates women's sensuality and propagates the fashion style of a free and modern girl. The Miss Sixty girl always remains a girl regardless of her age, and in the autumn/winter 2009 season, the Miss Sixty girl becomes a 'glam-rock princess' – beautiful and charming, cheeky and indifferent, but always glamorous and feminine enough with a strong stance and personality.
Take a look at the photo gallery of the collection HERE.
The models are dominated by wide shoulders, fluffy sleeves and a stressed waist, and the main part of the collection is the revolutionary eternal denim. Black and grey dominate the colour spectrum. The excitement of the whole collection is stressed by extras and combinations of colour like electric blue, purple, bright pink and orange. In recent years the fashion label Miss Sixty has been labelled as one of the most recognizable fashion labels around the world and has gained a 'cult' status amongst fashion aware lovers of urban fashion.
Miss Sixty clothing is firstly intended for playful women/girls who want a simple, comfortable, airy, yet glamorous style, who are not afraid to experiment and be themselves, different from others.
The Miss Sixty autumn/winter 2009 collection has found many fans amongst famous people like the urban princesses Mischa Barton, Francesca Versace, the actress Rosario Dawson (Sin City, 25th Hour), the actress Becki Newton (Ugly Betty), Blake Lively (star of the hit series Gossip Girl), Bijou Philipps (American actress, model and singer), American actress Monet Mazur (Just Married) and many others.
The Miss Sixty autumn/winter collection will arrive in Croatian stores at the start of September this year.
