That's great. So once again they're fiddling around, so that according to Mehdorn the unreasonable routes over 4 hours become more expensive. The shorter routes will admittedly become minimally cheaper in some cases, but remain more expensive than before the last price reform. Somehow I get the feeling that the railway doesn't work for itself but for the airlines, because with higher prices on long-distance routes the railway certainly won't roll up the market there, after all it already has the disadvantage of longer travel times (and no, dear Mr. Mehdorn, just because you now call an IC an ICE and charge more money for it doesn't automatically make it go faster!).
The only positive thing is the elimination of reservation fees for online bookings, but that still has the disadvantage of train binding even with BahnCard 50 - with counter purchases only the reservation is bound, not the card. And automatic machine sales require that the machines actually work ... (and that the route can even be booked via them)
So once again not a great achievement. Of course the railway management's idiotic decisions are never responsible for market failure, only the employees (who can then be laid off) or the customers (whom you apparently want to actively drive away as well).

|KK| In Belgium, the Cardinal seems to have lost his mind: "I am prepared to sign here in my blood that of all those who say they are lesbian or gay, at most five to 10 per cent are effectively lesbian or gay. All the rest are sexual perverts," said Cardinal Gustaaf Joos on Wednesday. "I demand you write this down. If they come to protest on my doorstep, I don't care. I'm just speaking out on what thousands of people are thinking but never get a chance to say," he told the Belgian soft-porn P-Magazine.
If that's not strong enough for you, here's another one: "Politics, democracy. Don't make me laugh. The right to vote, what is that all about? I find it strange that a snot-nosed 18-year-old has the same vote as a father of seven. One has no responsibilities whatsoever, the other provides tomorrow's citizens," he said.
Also interesting is his view on women, especially prostitutes: "If a man thinks he needs sex or is going to explode, it is better to find a prostitute than seduce or rape a girl. At least there are no innocent victims involved," he said.
You don't really need to comment on this crackpot anymore, the gross nonsense speaks for itself ...

A bit of my secret favorite for surprises in the next season. Sure, not the big names, but interesting riders in all areas with good motivation and often good performances. It could be that they'll make life difficult for one or another safe candidate. At RADSPORT-NEWS.COM - News Overview you'll find the original article.
Well, it seems he got lucky after all. Clement must be relieved, since he had really stuck his neck out with his support.

He says he has no fear about his reputation as a lawyer. - hello? The guy is a lawyer. He's a partner at von Gravenreuth. He works in trademark law. What kind of reputation could he possibly still lose? Maybe someone can explain that to me, I'm really curious about it ...
But whether von Gravenreuth still remembers his own cases that he conducted, in which he wanted to hold everyone liable for any alleged form of trademark infringement? Now suddenly of course nobody is responsible for the actions of clients. Such a remarkable change of heart, especially now that he's indirectly affected himself ...

Maybe nobody notices if they use my RSS feed, but for the others I've freed Hugo from this toxic green
I have no idea if I like these colors now, but at least you don't get spontaneous eye cancer anymore.
What I still don't like: titles can't be distinguished whether they link or not. But I have no idea how to do that cleverly - with colors? Or with icons? I'm just not sure about it yet.
That's fine too, it was just vaporware anyway. Or rather, just another label for Suse.

The idea is basically good - but then there should be more than this: Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Doesn't look like the database is working particularly well

So the idea is already pretty cool: take multiple images with different sharpness and then combine them afterwards in software so that the sharp areas come together and thereby improve the overall sharpness of the image. However, 500 dollars is a bit steep, a decent tripod and a small aperture are significantly cheaper

Yeah. Great. Der Spiegel has an RSS feed. In other words: a . Wow. I'm really thrilled. And of course just one for the headlines. No topic-specific RSS feeds, just one central one for headlines. Brilliant idea. Especially that update interval of 5 minutes. Doesn't sound like they really understood what the point of RSS is. So, dear Spiegel Online editorial team, if you really want to do something innovative, then offer automatically generated RSS feeds for each article category. So people can get their selections the way they want them - not everyone wants to read everything from you.
And as another point, finally offer comment functions on articles, or at least direct reply links, so you can refer to a specific article and the author of that article is addressed directly. Other outlets can do it too...
If you really want to be smart about it, you'd also offer trackbacks. But that's probably asking too much.
