What Ingredient Is In Orajel

German Christmas market in Novosibirsk

A major cultural event for the German community in recent weeks, the German Christmas market on 29 November, the first Sunday of Advent, the Russian-German House took place. In the last two years, such a Christmas market was held here, so that has now formed almost a small tradition. This year's Christmas market has ever seen before but all put in the shade: All German organizations, and also some Russian, have the Planning and implementation participated, and in addition to numerous articles, where you tinker taste typical Christmas goodies, something or could buy even handmade things, there was also a three-hour cultural program, in whose organization had Sabine to fallen head over heels, so some weeks are Family life with us occurred in only a cheap version. It was worth it: The event was a great success! We had around 700 guests, including many from my school, I was really happy, and have pretty well taken money that could completely be made available to charity Caritas and the Protestant community.

From one of my students, who at the Christmas market to be one out of two presenters of the program - you see them in evening dress on the left - I have now sent a collage that I do not want to interested visitors to our site denied:

The Great White Shark

Where In London Ont Can You Get A Fake Id

Birthday

No, not a "Dinner for one" we had in mind to 30 May the 100th to celebrate birthday of Erika and Klaus, to which the earlier birthday girl was flown in along with spouses. But a special celebration should be all right. Since we learned of the possibility of a trolley bus - for all non-Easterners: this is a bus with overhead lines - to rent can be chauffeured to the hard throughout this society through the city. No sooner said than done. You might say. But of course it was before driving a few bureaucratic hurdles to overcome.

Fortunately there was an acquaintance, the phone number of the bus depot was present. We thought. After I had expressed my concern more or less liquid learned by heart, it turned out that my interlocutor is not in the trolleybus depot, but where the trams worked. Very helpful, they gave me but the other corresponding phone number. She thought. Even there I was - now even more secure - in my sentences to learn that I had indeed come to the right depot, but unfortunately in the local canteen. Here too, we had a new phone number at hand.

Now at last I dared e for the third time and this time the outgoing call my request for information on renting a private O bus to recite. My desire for a personal appointment to inaug-commissioning of the vehicle apparently was even accepted and we were included for the next Friday afternoon is when the driver has finished his shift and we should be available. A vague premonition prompted me, however, on Friday at noon conscious again - right now in the right numbers - to call to reassure myself that the driver would actually be already at 14.30 clock on the ground. No one wondered at the other end of the line, before 16.30 clock he had never returned. And this Friday, said tour bus was already on the road with a company until late evening. Good thing we do not prematurely Julius had brought from the nursery, Cara go home alone from school and let Klaus separate prematurely from his desk ...

It passed some days off where we are, for various reasons could not make their way to the trolley depot and tended the March already coming to an end. Considering how often early in Germany localities must be hired, we thought now to have to hurry, so this unique bus - we had still not seen - we would not be snapped up in his face.

One Friday afternoon we went - again in a trolley bus - actually on a journey through the half the city. Arriving at the factory gate, we were the guards, who had just fought out a loud fight with each other our concerns and questioned rigorously then asked herzubitten on the in-house phone, the competent administrative staff. It also came shortly a friendly lady who piloted us through the wide, bright blue-painted corridors of the bus depots and sat in an office. Here at last we have now been eloquently describe in peace from one person to our project. And indeed: Yes, it was possible to rent a trolley. But not today! First, a personal interview be conducted with the driver (which we were actually come) and the date of the trip are agreed (which we recognized a long time). Although less than 17 clock was the driver still does not return, but there was a phone number where he could be reached. So we were waiting for half an hour by the lady, trying to talk, on his return home.

bated breath, we then entered the Festbus in which, as promised, small tables with stools, a buffet and a music system were present. But that otherwise maintain the dusty, sticky atmosphere of an ordinary trolley bus stopped, we had previously not made that clear. Nevertheless, the driver was nice and always willing to help us to schuckeln through the city. But when? On a Saturday? Usually, these services are only offered during the week, must eventually use a trolley bus driver, the few warm weekends in order to garden on his dacha. Our long faces and the report that part of traveling (well, actually two) of the guests especially from Germany, to experience this special event softened, and finally his heart and he gave us his verbal consent. Hurrah!

Back at the depot administration, we now wanted to brass tacks. But: No, for a booking it is still far too early. In May - by then so could anything happen to bus and driver. No, 5-10 days before the deadline for rich the reservation with full payment prior completely. Whether it is during this time were many weddings? Oh yes, of course, this could well be. Especially on a Saturday. Since we must just be lucky that no-one who came before.
Yes, precisely.
So we stopped in the next few weeks of regular telephone contact with the friendly driver to encourage him to sacrifice his Saturday well for us, but no one for another. We also have meetings only if those already Telefonnaten the approximate distance, holders and duration.

course not five, but 20 days before the festival we were conscious again the depot. It's all was clear. We thought. now other - - busy lady in an interview with about 20 potential new trolley bus drivers, despite prior appointment but that was. Each individual had to be informed about work hours and required documents. Unfortunately, there were no chairs in the blue hallway ...
After we had presented our concerns and also this lady the entire previous history of communication with various depot employees, it actually came to the actual booking. Only had this in writing. It was to formulate a petition that day had to include time, number of persons and an assurance that all guests can add to the instructions of the driver and wanted to leave the bus in perfect condition. Alertly Klaus asked whether it might not be a pattern for this freely admit formulated letter. Indeed, in a folder, there were numerous visual aids. The staff and I watched patiently, as Klaus wrote off changed by a model according to our needs. This was immediately stamped and signed several times and - also filed. We have pulled out my wallet, only to learn but that the payments are made in accounting. Once across the yard, back to the next building around to the second floor, down the hall. We know already. We did not know. Our desperate glances led to the kind lady herstöckelte before us and described the ladies in the accounts of the situation. We could not keep silent!

But there was the employee who specialized in the receipt of the booking fee, unfortunately ill. If we do not another day ....

Persistent stopping us have done many a time to an initially seemingly unattainable goal, and even now: Another lady was called, and explained our plans again and the three of you now sought on the brand-new PC with flat panel monitors the program to express our invoice . Since I was a boiling hot: Klaus did not pass it! If you are going to buy a Train ticket had to show and to legitimize the age of a child in the subway the document, then how much more comfortable here - but where was it at such a sensitive matter. We did quite innocent and believe it or not: more chill two hours that we waited in winter coats and hats in the well-heated office, we could make our money and received a confirmation of booking! Yeah!

Now Just do not be cocky! Finally, it was supposed to give during the holidays to eat something and then had a restaurant to be found who was willing to provide his food into a trolleybus. Here too, several meetings with the head of organization were needed to stand up menu selection and the kitchen staff was persuaded to appear exceptionally on a Saturday morning at 9 clock to work, so ready for delivery to 12 clock our treats were ready.

day X actually everything worked perfectly: The sun shone, the trolley bus was clean and even tablecloths with fresh prepared food and drink were delivered, all the guests arrived! It was a funny feeling in the fluctuating and sometimes bouncing vehicle to swing around the city while balancing plates of Russian appetizers or plastic cup of wine through the corridor. Was able at least between the not well known among German and Russian passengers no tense atmosphere rise. Thanks Caras heroic use have not even cared for by her five boys spilled something, but instead created the beautiful painting or build Lego towers.

All guests came to protest the requirement to hold a short presentation to a place or building of their choice, where the trolley stopped and the passengers was an opportunity to buy something solid ground under his feet. Allows to study even native Novosibirsk is new about their city.
We are sure these mobile hard as a special 100th Birthday be remembered!

Migraine Last For Days

Siberian architecture

typical of Siberia - so we read before our departure - should be pretty wooden houses, painted lovingly decorated with elaborate carvings of cozy shutters and in bright colors. Well, we did not really expect a 1.5 million city for all its inhabitants has in such accommodation, but we were hoping at least to a small, old city center, this romance can not imagine. A (!) Should there be such also in the city of Tomsk, we could not go unfortunately.

Novosibirsk But even in this respect, unfortunately, a total disappointment: The Soviet charm of the 5-10 story concrete apartment blocks in anheimelmdem Grey dominates not only in peripheral areas, but can also be found everywhere in the city center. Such accommodations are happy to group "block" in the middle one - in theory - is to find the green courtyard. A good idea! Could stroll but here babushkas and children play, teenagers lead a walk to first love their dogs, or older men ....
This is all done well, but unfortunately most directly on the Russian black earth, which is broken by a very small vegetation remnants. Really lucky that half a year, everything covered with fresh white snow is ...

Downtown, however, are in the recent years, new architectural gems added, demonstrating the taste of modern Russia: 15-20 storey residential and office towers, like glazed complete with turrets and / or gold adorned balconies are quite lost in busy traffic junctions. Good thing they sell by height and splendor of the surroundings, because in the immediate floor area, they are no different: here, too pure, porous concrete or bare, unplanted soil and a few crooked trash, the waste generated record obviously can not.

Unfortunately, the crisis of the anticipated completion of many ambitious construction projects, so that from the silhouette ghostly ruins of the city stand out with idle construction cranes.

But there are very different neighborhoods. Leaving the city area that is still accessible by two subway lines, close to the right and left of the main roads so-called "private sector" to. A very promising name, the West Europeans with a possibly arouses associations such as "single-family homes with front garden."

What in principle is true: Here in the shadow of the Soviet bloc visible everywhere, rows of wooden houses actually still together, but which seem to be more suitable for one person than for a whole family. In the summer, is the mixture of barking dogs, free-range children and hammering homebuilders actually a kind of romantic atmosphere. But in the fall becomes clear why most of the residential Siberians prefer drawers: there in the private sectors, usually no sewers - the wooden beam in the yard is still widespread - and the asphalting of the streets is not the place to advanced. Thus, wading through mud after a rainy furrows that even the greatest sales woman can not overcome prejudice.

Fortunately our apartment is in a centrally located, very young and - as we thought - solid brick house. Although we had already the first survey noticed cracks in the stairwell, but our future landlord assured that this would affect only the houses situated in the other wing. None the less visited shortly after we moved in a "commission", consisting of an older lady, our apartment to the request of the Lessor cracks in the bathroom tile to take on the living room wall and into the hallway ceiling note. Since then, the property manager is in a lively exchange of correspondence with various persons in the Government, at last, even the mayor made in person. It turned out that the construction of a modern, marble-clad house, mainly confronted the "Dubai's Cathedral", which was completely the Vacant lot between our house and the adjacent block fill, the foundation work was not well executed with great care, so that simply the foundation of our house fell slightly to slide. clarify

To the urgency of intervention to various commissions, the owners of other apartments in our stairwell on each floor about 3 meters high tree trunks were cut to support the structural analysis.

It helped: there is now a not further reviewable decision that "without delay" the appropriate tests and measures must be taken to secure the building. Then came the already 1. added May (Feiertag!) carried out a construction crew that is very noisy and cumbersome welding work on the landing approach of the ground floor.

Was it already? Or we will face a relocation, as the residents of the adjacent house on the other side already behind? We are excited!

Wedding Graphic Program Samples

The garden

visits since September last year our now five year-old Julius brave a "municipal pre-school educational institution, kindergarten, or - in view of the Russian love of Deminutivsuffixen -" Sadik, "garden called. this institution shall pay the lofty Designation "grammar school No. 1" also the cozy name Sönnchen. A special feature this particular facility is the early childhood teaching the German language and culture - this circumstance we owe at all also the place for Julius, for kindergarten places in Novosibirsk as in all of Russia rare and often only after years of waiting time and / or (!) to obtain a deposit in the "Parents Fund" in respectable level.
spared us all this, however we pay - like all other parents in the "Sönnchen" - besides the state-set school fees of about 900 rubles (currently about 20 €) some minor allowances for "special services", eg physiotherapy (When I asked under what conditions the children it were to participate, I got the answer, actually not all children are somehow sick, so we decided not to our healthy Julius exclude them), vitamins (which you as a reward for good work during the be distributed or teaching denied in case of failure), or - from scratch - an "oxygen cocktail" that is reminiscent of foamed apple juice, spooned from the children but with great enthusiasm () is!. The largest item, but take the "voluntary donations" in the amount of 1,700 rubles, so that total on a monthly contribution of just under 3,000 rubles is - a whole Quantity for a Russian teacher's salary of about 8,000 rubles.
is, however, that the child also completely furnished - with an opening time of 7-19 Clock and four meals a day (breakfast of porridge, three-course lunch menu, milk and biscuits for "poldnik" after the nap and dinner). Included is also a strict medical surveillance of children by two in-house medical staff: from numerous required supporting research findings and analysis prior to the start of the Child on the close observation ("Your son has contact two pimples on the nose, please report it immediately to the competent clinic and let him at least a week at home! ") spontaneous and medication Transportation ("Julius has now coughed to sleep. Since we have given him a pill.") to collective vaccination and immunity tests to the national rate fixed points in time.
end Unfortunately, this round supply abruptly end of May - then start the Russian summer holidays, up to the grand reopening of the kindergarten and school operations on 1 September last. It is beyond me, as Russian families - and we! - Can survive three months hand-written child care.
The daily routine in the "garden" is by tightly organized: At 8 clock in the group of two series in the in-house cafeteria marched to breakfast, especially the bekittelte governess, behind her the two "on-duty" Children in apron, and help clear the tables of the tables. After breakfast, there are three or four "lessons", ie units of 30 minutes, in which 20 children are divided into two groups that are dedicated to the exchange the subjects: kneading and gluing, painting and drawing, computer science (logical thinking) , mathematics, literacy, reading, German, singing, sports. Each lesson is interrupted by small "Fizminutki" where the children - of course all at once - get up and make small gym exercises. But otherwise they either sit at small tables, which in the bedroom establishes the rules and the teacher already lovingly with each required material "covered" were, or search on one of the classrooms in which the group is expected by the German teacher, music teacher or sports coach. Actually, the nursery also has a private swimming pool, but unfortunately the management tried unsuccessfully for about two years to obtain the necessary papers to start at the city council ...
also in the creative fields, there are clear guidelines on what to paint each, cut to stick with modeling clay or dough is. Thus, the parents each afternoon in the "gallery of children's creativity" 20 Snowmen admire stained paper, 20 or 20 ravens drawn kneaded trees.
In mathematics and the languages of the children have regular school books, pencil cases and folders. Julius settled already quite secure in numbers up to 10 and can some Russian - write letters - and unfortunately also German. The groups are composed of old uniform. Julius attended the oldest group, from which the now mostly seven-year-olds will go in the summer in the first grade. This assignment is one of the teacher to thank, who speaks passable German, and Julius was able to facilitate in the first few weeks to settle in much. This teacher is also otherwise a stroke of luck: Very different from their usually very strict and often somewhat rabid fellow she meets the children very carefully, empathetically and with noticeable affection. These properties, they could even have a three-month double-layer maintained from October to December last year was the second teacher of the group suffering the long term, so not as usual during the afternoon sleep of the exchange took place, but this one teacher 12 hours a day, the 20 children alone in charge.
goes after the lessons, the group concluded for at least an hour outside - only at extremely low temperatures below -20 degrees no longer playing in the fresh air.
Also on the Outside there is very organized to: Each group has its own area, so that a total of 6 slides, 6 sand boxes, 6 cottages on the veranda of land disposed. After the "free floating" it's for lunch, after which one of the two group rooms, extended the drawers and beds to the already seven-year-olds crawl with pajamas for two hours (!) To bed.
to sleep is still read a story. A governess is all the time in the bedroom there, to call those children to rest, which will it will not fall asleep ...
After sleeping and strengthen the "poldnik" can the children - now it's about 15.30 clock - Play for Free! This daily structure has led to Julius earnestly after the first weeks settling a question asked, "very long" to be allowed to remain.
The frequent changes of activities and locations during the course of a kindergarten day asked the children several times
- independently - to move (!):
When morning arrived to be felt boots, snow suit, fur hat and gloves stowed in a small cupboard and exchanged for shorts, T-shirt and sandals. Even at -40 degrees outside temperature prevailing in kindergarten chubby 25 degree heat. For sport which - of course uniform - sports uniform, consisting of orange T-shirt and worn black shorts. Unfortunately, this is not provided centrally by the institution, but it is up to parents to comb the entire city to buy an orange T-shirt without any imprint. Here, the boundaries between dark and bright orange on the part of the teachers strictly adhered to. To play on the outdoor terrain, the children have to re-create the course, warm clothing, and then again for lunch the group of normal clothes, but after eating a sleeping suit - or for hot-blooded - only their underwear. After sleeping all pull again to the group dress, and if the parents come naturally to her again snowsuit and boots .... In
"Sönnchen are celebrating along with the many Russian and all German holidays and festivals, which sometimes leads to an unbearable accumulation. After the German Martin and Nikolaus Fest, the German Christmas and the Russian New Year in December, followed in January, the Russian Christmas dance (in old costumes), a German Karnevaltag, in February, a sports festival and a parents' evening and the "Day of Defender of the country "and, finally, the" butter week ", an ancient Slavic feast for the expulsion of the winter. For every occasion, the children learn proper German or Russian Songs and poems, each coming on stage for the performance. Currently practicing Julius touching songs about the best of all mothers and grandmothers with golden hands. On 8 March is Women's Day that is ...

How Many Units In Bottle Of Jd

shopping in Russian

contemporaries who speak of Germany as a service desert, we strongly recommend a visit to Russia!
Although different product listing of a Russian supermarket little from our usual, apart perhaps from a 500g cup fresh strawberries in the middle of winter - but for about 30 €!
opening times - at least to 22 clock every day, including Sundays, often around the clock - and enormous staff presence can be initially close to exceptional customer service. In each gear, several women engaged in Drappier the goods too pretty on the shelves, meat, fish and cheese counter with sellers crowded and behind the cash register tapes were young men out to pack up your paid purchases in plastic bags and (for We unfortunately do not contribute to any) car.
If you then simply goes through the supermarket and takes out what you want from shelves, you really only noticed at the POS that it is abroad. For here every Aldi cashier would turn green with envy, they would have to witness, scan with their Russian colleagues who comfort the goods without the extra time for friendly glances or even wasting a verbal greeting. Also interesting that this study can be used to ensure apparent only when it is positioned behind three cash a supervisor in elegant costume.
one should have to take while shopping contact with the sales staff, you feel as Western Europeans do not often hit on the head. The question of a fairly popular consumer goods such as matches will with a simple shrug answered.
Turning confidence to a supposed expert butcher shop assistant prepare to ask for fresh ground beef, which is not visible in the bar, but perhaps more in store, present, or even fast, is that the whole perplexity disclosed in the answer "Apparently not here." In general, one feels at the meat counter is not uncommon as an unwanted intruder, the only one who voluntarily turns to hate. Long, demonstrative and even indignant stand further shifting of the shopping cart help not there. Only a loud response of the vendor, who made calmly continue or meat products packed up, rather than serve the customers out - sometimes - for some attention. Here is just the odd Russian Title "dewuschka" (Girls), which itself can be used for elderly people obviously have. To speed up this process, I have got used to ask me in advance at one of the many supervisors, whether the meat counter "does not yet work. Then instructs usually a seller, to use me in the near future.

Much more typical than those established in recent years, supermarkets are for the Russian market, but the myriad of small stalls, called kiosks at each stop, and other prominent locations are present in large numbers. There is not only us from Hannover, popular magazines and beverage kiosks, but one can of batteries, DVDs and pens on vegetables, fruits and meats, to gloves, boots and underwear buy anything and everything there. Julius grew particularly the highly specialized and chocolate ice cream kiosks to the heart, which we run every day at irregular intervals after the nursery to check the current offer.
a sales pitch on such a Büdchen does, however, some oddities with it. start early to even make eye contact with the most sedentary seller, you must stoop even I my upper body on a very uncomfortable level. The explanation for these national technical misconception I have been two versions Offered: They say you have originally planned to put the kiosks on platforms that allow sellers a comfortable seating position and the customers a shopping conversation at eye level. These platforms are then, however - simply been forgotten - in the heat of the construction for decades. Or so rumor has it, through the low window in the kiosks should the - not otherwise apparently successful end - to ensure prevention of the working class. Anyway, I put myself in the first summer friendly bent waiting outside the little window to a speech by the seller. Nothing happened. More than once I left the kiosks without having achieved anything, I wanted to but the poor woman do not interfere with the intense preoccupation with a crossword puzzle. At best, is an out-pressed "govorit" ("Speak!") Or "shto vam? ("What do you want?") Expected.
However, there are also pleasant exceptions. At the kindergarten nearest Eiskiosk an almost friendly relationship began with the seller, regardless of the wealth of their bodies literally crawled through the window, to Julius engage in conversation. Not infrequently, the adjacent owner of a mixed one Kazakh vegetable stand, which wanted a day to learn of new, where it is really better for now, in Russia or Germany? What can one say?
In winter, the stand-shopping is complicated by other obstacles to keep the heat of the little stove inside, close the window, the seller, but usually has a hand-lettered sign points to their presence ".! Open Tap". If one does this - with the appropriate bow - is also open, but the sales dialogue designed lashed with a fur cap over the ears rather slow, especially since the moves opposite is rarely the head near the opening speech. The desired product is then in sight, but not stored in the easy reach of the customer inside the kiosk, and patiently waits for the vendor with the transfer, until at temperatures around -15 degrees
has a glove pulled out and fingered the money from the wallet.

A convincing response to the Siberian climate are therefore in the subways and subway entrances located shops whose generous heated in winter and cool in summer courses an underground shopping experience possible. How pleasant it is

that we are right outside our yard a small "mom and pop shop" have. From the outside, only the word "vodka and wine," said we entered it a few days after our arrival to see that here the whole range of everyday items to have. This Shops located in the basement of the adjacent building, with the result that the three women there in the change from morning 8 to evening clock 22 clock - even on Saturday and Sunday - Slide service, rarely get to see daylight. This does not Abruch but their friendliness. Of course, we were immediately identified as newcomers to the area and openly questioned. Meanwhile, the three are very well informed about our past and present life know to kindergarten, school and work activities, even our shopping habits to know exactly shocking ("your favorite wine we have today, unfortunately, not there"). Sometimes we sneak to the secret anonymous supermarket to our reputation by not the all too frequent purchases of alcoholic beverages to bring into disrepute. When Klaus recently in view of the forthcoming visit of a Russian family for the first time (!) Wanted to buy a bottle of vodka, even developed a talk with the other customers. Surprised by the small size of the chosen bottle Klaus recommended one, "but a larger purchase, otherwise you have to match again!" Whereupon noticed another buyer ". Why, does not matter anyway, he comes back, how big the bottle is too." He's right.
