1. The aurochs, a breed of cattle....originally native to Hessen, was extinct. Well....there's a lab in Lorsch that is trying to develop the breed again.
My description of the breed? Take a normal cow....pump it up by 30-percent, and add 200 pounds of muscle.
Not sure where this is going to lead to.
2. Austria has figured out that this guy who was a school-teacher....was not qualified for the job. Years spent in this fake-stunt? Fifteen.
3. There's a element of the German gov't that wants to double the number of active-duty and reserve troop in the Army. The stumbling block? The SPD is firmly against conscription.
4. I watched a N-TV piece this AM....on Chinese E-cars coming into Germany. So the analyst admits two things....first, the cars aren't that 'bad' (indicating that quality is decent)....but second, the marketing campaign so far, has been a 'disaster'.
5. Mixed message by incoming coalition gov't....they want to increase defense spending (significantly)....but to reach that point....social spending will have some cuts along the way. This won't sell well to the pubic.
