– Everyone knows how the story of RMS Titanic ended, but few know how it began. Now, for the first time, that remarkable history has been traced back to its start-with the 1907 decision to build her in the first place. From there we go into the shipyard, where 4,000 tradesmen-joiners, fitters, electricians, plumbers, welders, riveters, and more-turned dreams into reality. Profusely illustrated with blueprints, cross-sections, and haunting archival photographs, this extraordinary record of human endeavor and, ultimately, human fallibility, adds a fascinating new dimension to the story of the world’s most famous, fated ship.< Englisch

weltweiterevolution15102011.wordpress.com OCTOBER 15th 2011 WILL BE THE BEGINNING! TOGETHER WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD, TAKE PART! WE ARE THE OUTRAGED, THE ANONYMOUS, THE VOICELESS. WE WERE THERE, SILENT BUT ALERT, WATCHING. NOT GAZING UPWARD AT THE POWERS THAT BE, BUT LOOKING FROM SIDE TO SIDE FOR THE RIGHT TIME TO UNITE WITH EACH OTHER. NO POLITICAL PARTY, ASSOCIATION OR TRADE UNION REPRESENTS US. NOR DO WE WANT THEM TO, BECAUSE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US SPEAKS FOR HER OR HIMSELF. TOGETHER, WE WANT TO DESIGN AND CREATE A WORLD WHERE PEOPLE AND NATURE COME FIRST, BEFORE ECONOMIC INTERESTS. WE WANT TO DESIGN AND BUILD THE BEST POSSIBLE WORLD. TOGETHER WE CAN AND WE WILL. UNAFRAID http Am 15. Oktober werden wir, die BürgerInnen der ganzen Welt, auf die Straße gehen um die Empörtheit über den Verlust unserer Rechte, untergraben von der Allianz zwischen den multinationalen Großkonzernen und der politischen Klasse, zu demonstrieren. Wir von der Democracia Real Ya (Echte Demokratie Jetzt!) laden Euch ein an dieser friedvollen Aktion teilzunehmen, Euch unserem Aufruf anzuschließen oder zu eigenen Aktionen an diesem Tag aufzurufen. Es ist Zeit unsere Stimmen laut werden zu lassen. Unsere Zukunft steht auf dem Spiel und nichts kann die Wucht von Millionen von Menschen aufhalten, wenn sie sich für ein gemeinsames Ziel vereinigen. echte-demokratie-jetzt.de
