The Civil War


In this article I will make a big leap in time, from antiquity to the North American Sezzesionskrieg.

It is hard to believe, but gave it in the North American South until the late 19th Century still slaves.

The situation between the North - and South came to a head more and more, until the U.S. elects a president, who was considered an enemy of slavery. His name was Abraham Lincoln
author of the picture: Alexander Gardner (1821-1882)

the southern states did not like it. They were very dependent on agriculture, and the slaves were not as expensive as salaried workers.

The northern states were very industrial.

in their cities, many workers were employed in the factories that produced there are all sorts of things.

also weapons.

The southern states joined together schielßlich. They now formed the Confederate States. They elected their own president, Jefferson Davis .

On 12 April made the Confederate States the first train, shot by a Union fort.

Initially, both sides were not sure about the impact of the war. They were disastrous. The civil war claimed more lives than all other wars in which Americans were involved.

Half a million people died, and there were also many wounded.

After the first battle won by the Confederate States of America, the Northern States were aware that they had to build a powerful army.

The Northern States tried to take the Confederate capital, but they failed.

1863 occupied the northern states, many strategically important places in the South. So they shared the confederacy in two.

was also fought at sea.

President Jefferson Davis offered to those "trunk letters of marque, which attacked the ships of the Norstaaten or the Union.

In the bay Chesapeake Bay 1862 there was an extraordinary battle.

It all started with the fact that the confederation when the war began a naval arsenal seized by the Union in Norfolk. They fell into the hands of some vessels, including the steam frigate Merrimac, which they sailed round and enclosed in their arsenal.

under the name "Virginia" 1862 she swam the naval blockade of the Union, but not without having to attach to the side plates 8 cm thick iron plates. The ship was sent with heavy guns to the front.

accompanied by the gunboats "Beaufort", "Jamestown, and" teaser ", it should break on 8 March, the naval blockade.

The gunboat of the Union," Congress "the ships greeted with a hail of bullets, which unfortunately at the" Virginia rebounded.

Then direct the guns of the "Virginia" on the "congress", and inflicted enormous damage on the ship so that it in shallower waters swam.

The cannons of the "Cumberland" had more success, and their shots came through the loopholes and destroyed two guns and put 20 men out of action.

The Virginia but approached without stopping to let the "Cumberland" and rammed it.

The guns of the Union ships could not reach the ship. In the dead angle of the "Cumberland" swam the "Virginia".

The "Cumberland" disappeared in the floods of water, and had been looking for the "Congress", the protection in shallower waters. burned soon under the hail of bullets Konförderationsschiffe ...

Nevertheless swam the "Virginia" back to the shipyard, and the reason was lack of ammunition and the wounding of the commander.

later one day, on 9 Floated in March 1862, the "Virginia" back to the naval blockade of the Union.

But everything changed when the Confederate had planned it ...

On the other hand, dipped the "Monitor".

The Monitor was a modern ship with a tower, designed and built by the designer John Ericsson (* July 31, 1803 in Långbanshyttan ; † 8 March 1889).

The sides were protected by thick iron plates, and the ship was equipped with a rotating turret.

The battle began.

The "Virginia" immediately started the fire.

The answer came herübergeschwirrt a hail of bullets. The bullets bounced off the ship and the ships fired on and approached it up to 50 m.

the end of the fight lacked the "Virginia" to the chimney and the "Monitor" came the voice disappeared.

turned Finally, the "Virginia" and returned.

The fight was a draw.

The Union had been able to keep the naval blockade.

was the beginning of the end with the decision to make Abraham Lincoln Ulysses S. Grant to command the Union army.

He celebrated a Siegnach the others. On 9 April 1865 laid down an important part of the Konförderationsarmee weapons.

The rest of the army followed in the summer 1865th

On 18 December 1865 decided to prohibit slavery.

The U.S. was now after the victory of the North very industrial. This change also played in the World Wars a major role ...

Free Enounce My Speed

The Caucasus war and previous conflicts between Russia and Georgia

While students like me were in school, is everything in Georgia continues.

Despite the announced ceasefire in Georgia, Russian bombers continued to bomb Georgian towns, although the Russian president announced that the fighting and bombings have ceased.

The demands of the UN Security Council are to deduct the soviet sphere of troops to their previous positions.

Should be so simple?

In Georgia, thousands of civilians killed and destroyed many cities of Russian bombers.

You can not expect simply, the grass grows over the matter.

Georgian territory should accepted the opinion of U.S. President W. Bush on Russia.

The presidential candidates John McCain and Obama criticized the Russich military operations.

John McCain was of the opinion that the Russia-led military action against a Verbruch internatiole law would be.

Obama called on Russia as a great nation, to act as a force for peace.

The representative of Russia in the UN Security Council said that this was not acceptable.

Even before the Second World War conflicts prevailed between the two very different nations militarily.

Russia had offered Georgia, an association join against the so-called White Army.

Georgia refused. The Republic wanted to remain neutral, but wanted to make contacts with Russia in order to be accepted by them as Georgian Democratic Republic.

The rejection of Georgia led to the invasion of Russian troops in Georgia.

After Georgia was able to repel the Russian troops have resumed peace negotiations.

1920 was accepted as the Republic of Georgia by Russia.

In the same year came to a conflict that ended when there was a new Georgian government.

That occurred because the Georgian army was very badly organized. Also

today it is as before.

The Georgian republic is militarily very weak.

One advantage for Russia.

What Do The Stars On My Palm Mean?

Georgia fight back in Internet

It is hardly possible in recent days to escape the news of the Caucasus war.

The latest news report on the withdrawal of Georgian troops from South Ossetia.

However, the Russians give not satisfied, they march on in that moment on Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.

It seems like they wanted to overthrow the government and the place I want my serious crooks and puppets at the head of the republic.

are also worrying those numbers. It's not dead, but of the army.

The Russian consists of almost 400,000 soldiers, that the Georgians has a zero less. The number is 18,000 soldiers.

Even with the paramilitary (police) dominate large number of differences:
Russia: 418.000
Georgia: 11,700

The tanks of the Russians are 23,000, which the Georgians just over a hundred.

Transportation crew of Russians: 19,000

depressing: Georgia's 44th Troop Carrier

And how are nine Georgian warplanes much cause to 2,000 Russian? are suitable

military men and women in Russia 50,000.

Georgia: 2 million military compatible.

The Air Force includes 2,000 troops from Georgia.

The Russich consists of 160,000 men!

has been targeted yet, no nation in the war. Not even the U.S., and the other members of NATO.

Even the Georgian athletes have left Beijing for personal reasons to return to Georgia.

Russian hackers have ensured that many important pages internatiol Georgia are no longer accessible.

had since the Georgian Republic an idea. She put not a hacker, but she made a blog. And where? Blogger, the site where I got my blog.

Here's the page:
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia

Here is the link for another article in English:
El motivo de la invasion rusa it amarmante-inaceptable desde el punto de vista the derecho internacional

Russian hackers do not have the ability to hack Blogger because Blogger is safe and well.

owes the Russian invasion of Georgia, the death of many Georgians.

Let us hope that the right policy decisions are made, and the United States to support Georgia.

Let us hope that Europe does not support Russia, but Georgia.

There are horrific pictures from Georgia.

What is awful, the journalists go too far. A seriously injured woman is surrounded by cameramen who film them with cameras. All is full of camera flashes. No one takes care in what is the woman for a bad mental state.

I hope the Georgians can live again as soon as possible a peaceful and happy. This will certainly be in a few years. Nowadays, you can reach in a few days almost perpetual damage ...

On 2nd Punic War saw the Carthaginian general Hannibal that the Roman Empire stood at the edge of the abyss.

As Scipio saw to it that Hannibal lost the war, many citizens of Carthago Nova in Spain today were sold into slavery.

you were treated badly and got no reward. In the silver mines had 40,000 slaves working, which were neglected in the food area. If a slave committed a greater offense, he was crucified.

This led to revolts, first in rural slaves, who conquered the city of Enna, Sicily. The Syrian Eunus was appointed king.

The next major revolt took imJahre 104 BC instead.

The Roman Senate had decided to release a lot of slaves from allied nations.

Sicily tables slave traders sabotaging the preparations and a short time later broke the 2 Slave war in Sicily.

Also this army of 30,000 men was defeated by Publius Rupilius.

Then came the last and largest and most famous slave revolt that took place but at home. He is also known as Spartacus revolt, as was the leader Spartacus.

Sale Meller Falcon 1980


Here is even a prototype of a Hamburg-based. This car with 6 wheels set in 1980 by Karl-Heinz Meller in Hamburg on a shortened Beetle chassis.

The company Meller had then some deliveries to Saudi - Arabia handle and the then Saudi Prince asked Mr. Meller, if he could not construct for him a light hunting car for falconry in the desert and build. This car is the Hanseatic answer. The car is street legal !!!!!!! TüV unfortunately expired.

I prepared the engine and run some more work. For example, he has 2 new rear wheel cylinders, new VA - exhaust tips and more.
effort was made a small series production and Mr. Meller had already leased a factory in Ireland, where to begin manufacturing. This car (FG-# 1) 1981 was shown at the IAA in Frankfurt and there were several pre-orders accepted.
Mr. Meller made another car for the Saudi Prince, which was also delivered well. Then Mr. Meller died suddenly and his widow had no interest in the continuation of production and sold everything. Thus, this prototype came into private hands. Last He drove for many years on the island of Fohr. And for about 8 years he is in Kiel.


I have a folder with original documents to the resume of this unique vehicle.
The special thing about him, no doubt the 6 wheels. The front axle is original Beetle. The engine is behind the two seats, between the axles, so a mid-engine. The transmission of it.


stuck on the drive shafts, gear wheels, which transfer the force by means of duplex chain (within chain lockers) on waves that pass on the one hand the power to the wheels around (again via chains in boxes) and second, the Power back further to the rear pair of wheels forward, which in turn are driven by chains in boxes and oil bath. All four rear wheels are so driven, braked all 6 wheels.
climb to the (surprisingly comfy) seat even hand throttle on the carburetor. Beetle speedometer, fuel gauge and a few switches. Behind the motor is a deep bench. Front under the hood for the tank and the electrical equipment and space for a toothbrush.
The tires are former studded tires should be replaced.
The car has a roll bar and 4 additional lights mounted on it. However, no roof, although in the papers of a registered is.
Registered in the papers is also a 50 hp - Beetle engine. He should again have, for the currently mounted 34hp - engine is a bit weak.


I am last year in Hannover have been meeting on the beetle. At his own 3-axis of course. Peak current about 80 mph. Entered (50 hp) 110th

Otherwise, I'm in Schleswig - Holstein made a few trips and visited a few oldie meeting.
But the car is a "foreign body" in my type 3 - Fleet. Therefore, it is to be sold again.
The car is now since 2010 H-compatible. Who would want to demonstrate to the original state?
The car was insured with me as a bug.
He is now back at a friend's - is for sale but still.
ran Also: Anyone who wants a unique car with air-cooled - Technology in the garage? The Meller is operational and can be transferred at his own 6 wheels. Only a red number plate you need.

What Kind Of Shoes Do You Wear For Step Aerobics

Red Karmann 34

this is my second big Karmann, also a 1500 S in 1965, with of course not original paint. I have this car, by the way until now my most expensive type 3, for 1700 DM bought, which was 1988. I needed it really just the entire front. Meanwhile, the transplant is completed. This Karmann I have a few more years before seen on Oldie meeting here in the area. With a very rare pseudo - grille on the nose. Too bad I did not like this photo.

Ghia I have from this last year I removed all the necessary parts and sold the body.


Somewhere I still have a photo of the complete car or with the front, which now adorns my blue 34th. But better a car than cure 2 Bad.









Sometimes the room with me a bit short in the hall.

Lufenuron In Treatment Ringworm Cat

My first variant "bed that," the White


Here are some pictures of my first Type 3 - Variant. Purchased by an old gentleman at first hand for a DM and drove 10 Winter. In 2001 I cut the car then. Many parts I have in my hall.
With this car we were running on other things in the Zillertal to the ski. There were (almost) never any problems with the car.
This photo shows the car in Starnberg near Munich. There we stayed at a friend at that time.

Here we see the Vari before the new paint (besides my red stage) in Kiel. Since I met through friends who hold a Kiel bed shop, I was able to trade a new painting when I went to the store for a few years of advertising. Therefore
got the car so professional - stickers on both doors and the tailgate. Looked very nice, and people looked around for it.
What I have supported by this Variant everything, even to the end for house construction, is almost unbelievable!
If I have other old photos digitized, I will be here to ask a few.

Cholotu Mexicanas Cachando

My beige first-hand Vari 1600 with glorious loose end


This is the story of my second variant first hand. I have the car for 400 DM and 10 years Order bought almost exclusively driven in winter. It was the company car a Kiel Florist. I found a long time to pine needles and the like in it. The old lady could not see while driving and would rather give up the store. So the car was also on. Click on the first picture I can paint the wheels ever again.

Several years ago we were at with the car in the winter in Lillehammer, Norway. Just a new set of winter tires bought and off we went. There were still piles of snow and it was constantly new stuff from the sky - it has the Vari but not disturbed. He ran without any problems. I had bought the car with 59,000 miles on the odometer. From today's perspective, I would not use him more in the winter. But where once he was now chosen as a winter car ...
With the car we were in Wolfsburg to the type 3 - Annual meeting and last year the beetle meeting in Hanover.
And so can end it if we are not careful or if you're unlucky. An explosion at the start resulted in less than a minute to fire the entire interior. And since nothing could be done - I could just push the car out of the hall. Previously had my red stage in their way - which had already abundant Blisters fetched. And when the outside Vari was the deletion was present in the hall. Fortunately we got the fire under control. Soon moved to the fire department. Including police and ambulances and so on. But the variant was beyond help. I would end up with the front axle, etc, including expanded.
Can I recommend to anyone. But if you want to see how a special series steering wheel looks like when the jacket is gone - if you please!
