More maps... Travelling across the German countryside on pristine, high speed intercity trains and around German cities on efficient urban S-Bahn and U-Bahn networks, it's easy to feel the spirit of efficiency which drives the country forward. Germany's commitment to the principle of progress has a bit of a track record. For five hundred years the German lands have been a crucible of technological innovation, theological revolution, modern philosophy and radical political movements. The modern German state, inaugurated in October 1990, is a social and economic bridge between the former Eastern bloc and the European Union, and has firmly set its sights on building for the future. Berlin, a remodelled capital city with an openly gay mayor, a reconstructed Reichstag , a new city centre at the Potsdamer Platz and a brand new international airport is described today - almost to the point of tedium - as being the biggest building site in Europe, if not the world. Germany's time is coming.

Cross the wasteland of twenty percent unemployment, drug-cheat athletes and mass neo-Nazism, next stop funky sexy Prague . More books... Or: you could at least get off that Prague train a couple of hours earlier and give Dresden a try. If you're not at least pleasantly surprised, or more likely staggered by the returning beauty of the city that used to be known as the Florence of the Elbe , you'll be in the minority. Dresden's cultural treasures were famously and tragically all but destroyed by the February 1945 firebombing and again endangered just last summer by the flood of the century, but every time I go there it seems that there are more jewels to admire. The view of the restored Semper Opera House , palatial museum and gallery complex named the Zwinger , and the Brhl Terrace along the bank of the Elbe is stunning, especially illuminated in the evening.

Ski vacation with heavy
Utah Ski Vacations Utah Ski Vacations Utah Vacationers Last week I took some time off to re-visit many fine resorts in Utah and the incredible snow its mountains had to offer. With early storms, the snow is nearly perfect. Fluffy, white powder covers each hill and crevice. But being back at Sundance really reminded me of how magnificent the sliding is in Utah. The snow wasn't the only perfect aspect of Utah, but the weather was as well. With over 2 feet of fresh powder, Utah was the ideal place to ski or slide, and it still is. Many resorts are already open. The snow season is here. Experience a great Ski vacation with heavy early snowfall in Utah’s Skier Vacations Paradise by visiting Sundance. Sundance opens December 10th, 2004. Spend the holidays in Utah, sliding and skiing away in the Wasatch Mountains. If you can’t get away for the holidays don’t fret as March and April are considered to be the peak months to enjoy the winter snow offered at the Utah Mountains. Another Utah vacation bonus besides great sunny weather and loads of fresh powder is the lack of lift lines experienced at various resorts throughout the country. No one wants to spend their Utah Vacation standing in line. Sundance has no line even during the busiest days. Most visitors are amazed at the quality, quantity of fresh powdery snow to ski or board during their Utah Vacations. Now its time for you to get out to Utah and enjoy its mountains, have some fun in the sun and snow, and go on your own Utah vacation. The powder is pilling up and the sun is still shinning- with the occasional cloud taking over the crystal blue skies. Utah skiing and boarding weather is great so make sure to bring your sun block before heading out and wear those hats and glasses! Enjoy your Utah Vacation to Sundance. “South of Salt Lake is the casually elegant community of Sundance. The resort was created in 1969 within the locale of a 6,000-acre village devoted to artistic experimentation and environmental conservation. Under the direction of the resort’s owner, Robert Redford, Sundance is an experience for the senses. Guests can ski and enjoy 41 runs on 450 acres, take an art class in the Artisan Center , cross-country ski by lamplight, eat lunch in the cozy Foundry Grill , enjoy a candlelight dinner at the award-winning Tree Room , or belly up to the bar that once was shot up by the original “Hole in the Wall gang” in the Owl Bar .” www.skiutah.com Utah Vacation Utah Vacation Utah Ski Vacation Utah Ski Vacations Utah Snowboarding Vacations Utah Vacation Stay 3 Ski Free Romantic Weekend Getaway Check out our LiftPrices » Day pass » Season Passes Take a SkiLesson » Adults » Kids » PerformanceSki Labs Rent Equipment View the Stats View the Image Gallery View our Ski Lodging » LodgingOverview » Promotions » Experiences& Packages Book Your Trip | Hot Deals | Calendar | Contact | Site Map | Weather | Search 1-800-892-1600

Lose Weight with the French Diet The French eat rich foods, drink lots of wine and smoke. So why are they so thin and fit? Recent news reports have touted the wonders of the so-called French diet. Just what is the secret to the French paradox? During the time I lived in France, I ate whatever I wanted (think chocolate croissants for breakfast, tartes aux fruits rouges at night for dessert). I never dieted, and I never went to the gym. I indulged in wine. Yet I lost a significant amount of weight during that time. My theories why the French diet works are in my article, Lose Weight with the French Diet: Unraveling the Mysteries of Why it Works .
