1. Big championship game for the German soccer league last night (to the end of last season)...Leipzig versus FC Bayern Munich. FC Bayern's new player, Harry Kane showed up. Leipzig won....3-0.
2. After almost ten years, the new bridge between the west-end of Wiesbaden and west-end of Mainz, the Schierstein-autobahn bridge....will be complete and opened today (Sunday).
This replaces the old bridge built in the mid-1960s.
3. Yesterday, onboard some regional train between Stuttgart and Karlsruhe....some German gal touched the electrical socket and got electrocuted....requiring an ambulance ride. What the cops say? Somehow, the socket had been altered by some unknown German.
4. Police report from Untersingen area (Stuttgart region) that a rainstorm started up near some beer-garden area yesterday. Six folks decided to sit at a table while the storm passed over. Lightning struck.....three folks severely wounded.
5. WELT piece: quarter of all German kids finishing up school....can't read at the level they finished.
