The Hamburg City Hall is one of the few fully-preserved examples of historicism in Germany. The three-winged granite and sandstone building has a 111 meter wide front with a 112 meter high central tower. The roof is copper covered. The outstanding combination of Italian and North German Renaissance elements produced at the front a harmonious overall effect.

About the monarch on the middle tower crowned by representations of the civic virtues, wisdom, unity, courage and piety. It is no accident that the bourgeois virtues are arranged on the emperors.

Accordingly, this development experience the Port picture always changes in substance as Alster harbor he had increased continuously over centuries, with exposure in the same spatial needs are growing within decades, many times.

was in 1860 marked the image or by crowded sailing ships and a small steamer on the city side of the North Elbe, the envelope was to ship their own dishes instead of gestural acts port vehicles, winches on the quays werkt workers with carts, hand cranes and.

Since the 1970s, container ships determined and almost completely automated handling the image that port activity will take place down the river Elbe, where a few decades earlier were marshlands and fishing villages.

Aurora

The Aurora (or Aurora Borealis, ie northern lights or aurora australis, ie southern lights) is an optical phenomenon (more precisely, an electric Meteor), which is caused on impact of charged particles of solar wind on the Earth's atmosphere in the polar regions of Earth. The Northern Lights are usually north and south of 60 ° north latitude 60 ° south latitude observed.

auroras occur when electrically charged particles hit the magnetosphere, mostly electrons but also protons (solar wind) and some heavy ions (oxygen ions) to the upper layers of the atmosphere. There they stimulate the existing air molecules to glow. The impact of a particle causes at the molecular / atomic excitation according to a modified electronic configuration. In a short time later successful end de-excitation light is emitted, generally referred to as fluorescence. Even nuclear weapons tests in high atmospheric layers (400 km) cause such phenomena, such as the Starfish Prime test, the United States on 9 July 1962.

auroras are both in northern latitudes (Northern Lights, or Aurora borealis) and in the southern hemisphere (southern lights, or Aurora Australis). On other planets of the solar system, these phenomena are observed. The precondition is that the planet is a magnetic field and has an atmosphere.

BOOT: Interview with TripAdvisor VP Adam Medros on Trip Friends and life in a Facebook world

BOOT: What is like being tied to Facebook? Must be hard and challenging to give up so much control to them?

Medros of TripAdvisor: Without a doubt (a challenge to be tied to the Facebook experience). The benefits are clear but also a number of dependencies we have to manage:

1. General dependency: What would we do if Facebook build their own travel Q&A product? We can't worry about it as we can't stop something like that happening and it would go against public claims by Facebook to be independent;
2. API dependencies : Facebook have a tendency to change features and the API often. For example app notification went away and was never replaced; and
   
3. Down Time dependency: What happens if the Facebook API has down time? Figuring out how to message to users when there is latency not coming from you.

Despite this we need Facebook. We tried to build a version of Trip Friends on our own a few years ago - did not take off because consumers did not want to maintain another social network.
