The journey for dieBusse currently amounts to here about two days and for conventional trains nearly nine hours. The Transrapid will only need three hours. Mashad is a major Shiite pilgrimage.
 The project in Iran has a circumference of about twelve billion euros, the line will be ready in eight years.

Kö-arm but with the long tunnel

Dusseldorf - It's out: The first section of the Kings-arm cost 143 million euros. OB Erwin's critics within his own ranks have prevailed with the longer north-south tunnel solution until the Jägerhofstraße. Joachim Erwin, presented on Monday a draft resolution, on which the Council on 13 December will be discussed.
The Council agrees in principle decision, are paving the way for "the big Y" set - as Mayor Erwin called the century building in the new transport systems around the Jan Wellem place and planned Kö-Bogen. Here is the new Trinkaus-formed bank. The traffic engineering work could as early as next year, but begin not earlier than the expiry of the tender period of 52 days.
What is new addition to the long north-south tunnel (extra cost 38.5 million euros) but also an underground connection of the playhouse and the three-disc home to the north-south tunnel. However there are a "substantial" cost risk exists because the connection requires that the agreement of the current or future owners, and the air outside the three-disc high-rise "expensive rebuilt" is.
OB Joachim Erwin sees the citizens' protests to date with 5,000 signatures against the sale of Jan Wellem square "forward calmly." For him it was a 'gathering, with which one wants to make policy. " 13,600 signatures are required for a citizens' petition.
The initiative, which also includes the former Landtagsabgeordnete Brigitte Speth (SPD) wants to achieve greater citizen participation and an overall planning concept.
  The construction of the Wehrhahnlinie is now begun. Only in the second phase, which has yet to be decided, the millipedes will be demolished.

U.S. Governor Sanford rushes over sex scandal

Columbia - They preach decency, they take it home so not as accurate:
If the Sexgier governed by politicians, the scandal is not far away. Now, it caught the conservative governor of South Carolina, Mark Sanford (49) - currently a hot candidate for the next presidential elections.
The Republicans stayed six days office and home away to give himself his Argentinean lover. His spokesman asserted: The hike is only ...
Berge has certainly seen the good man in Argentina and also determines some boarded, but had nothing to do with hiking. When they caught him at the airport, he lied boldly: "I did not want to wander. I would rather do something exotic views. "
Yes, he has also confessed to crying and gemacht.Schluchzend Sanford, now that he has really stuck. "I have betrayed my wife," he says sheepishly. "With a dear, dear friend." The longer he knew already - all purely platonic, "then it became this glittering thing."
Not in itself a big thing: cheating husband wife. Not noble, loyal, but not abnormal. But Sanford is a Republican, represents ultra-conservative values, announced loudly as moralists to speak after Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky had admitted. Now, he tripped over a sex scandal.
As just one week before his Republican colleague John Ensign (51) from Nevada, who also had to admit an extramarital relationship. Larry Craig (62), Senator from Idaho, was caught in 2008 by an investigator of an airport toilet, where the Repulikaner made overtures to the officials. Craig gave the police everything, denied later.
Savory: He argued forcefully against gay marriage. The double standards of American politicians is legendary. Vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin (45) preaching abstinence for teenagers, while her own daughter pregnant - at 17 was! New York Governor Eliot Spitzer (50) rushed through visits Edelbordell after he had previously acted brutally against prostitution. John Edwards (56), a Democrat and vice-chancellor candidate in U.S. election campaign 2004, betrayed his wife when the fight against cancer.
Even German politicians busied affairs. CSU chief Horst Seehofer (58) fathered with his mistress, Annette Froehlich even a child, then stayed with his wife Karin.
Why risk seasoned politicians and family call when they know that they are being observed? "Did you reach a certain position of power think that they stand above the fray," says psychologist and couples therapist Volker van den Boom. The political professionals establish themselves in such cases, two worlds. "In one they preach this, they live in that home," says van den Boom. "As men of power may be quite separate and feel good about it - until the thing blows up."
Then it depends on the response of the Sexgier of the governed. "Is he about this, he can come with a black eye like this," says van den Boom. However, if you previously had the supreme upholder of moral standards can hang out, can not usually expect forgiveness. That is why Mark Sanford resigned on Thursday as well.
