Oxford German Network & Goethe Institut London
OXFORD GERMAN NETWORK & GOETHE INSTITUT LONDON Umfrage: Deutsch für die Zukunft Bitte beantworte alle Fragen auf Deutsch! Ab September 2014 werden alle Kinder in englischen Grundschulen (primary schools) ab 7 Jahren (mindestens) eine Fremdsprache lernen. Viele Kinder lernen schon jetzt eine oder mehr als eine Fremdsprache. Manche Kinder werden Deutsch lernen. 1) Was sollen englischsprachige Kinder zwischen 7 und 11 Jahren im Deutsch- unterricht lernen? Gib 3 bis 5 Dinge an, mit kurzen Begründungen. (50–150 Wörter) 1. Ich denke, dass alle junge Kinder über Deutschessen lernen sollen, da es nicht nur eine nützliche Fähigkeiten wäre, wenn man in einem Deutschrestaurant ist, sondern auch würden die Kinder es genieβen. Es gäbe auch die Gelegenheit, einige traditionelle Deutschgerichte zu probieren, zum Beispiel Stollen, die für alle macht Spaβ. 2. Es wäre toll, wenn die Kinder über Deutschfestivals lernen können, besonders Fasching, weil es ihnen eine idee von die Deutsche Kultur geben wäre, sowie interaktiv sein. Sie können Videos über es sehen, Musik davon hören, oder sogar ihre eigenen Masken/Kostüme machen. 3. Es wäre auch interessant für die Kinder, ein bisschen über die berühmteste Plätze in Berlin zu lernen. Zum Beispiel die Branndenburger Tor oder die Berliner Mauer. Es wäre gut für ihre Geschichtekenntnisse und vielleicht würden sie besuchen wollen! 2) a) Welche(s) Grimms Märchen würdest du für Kinder empfehlen? (1–3 Märchen ankreuzen) Aschenputtel (Cinderella) Das tapfere Schneiderlein (The Valiant Little Tailor) Die Bremer Stadtmusikanten

Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever Fact Sheet
Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever Fact Sheet What is Marburg hemorrhagic fever? Marburg hemorrhagic fever is a rare, severe type of hemorrhagic fever which affects both humans and non-human primates. Caused by a genetically unique zoonotic (that is, animal-borne) RNA virus of the filovirus family, its recognition led to the creation of this virus family. The four species of Ebola virus are the only other known members of the filovirus family. Marburg virus was first recognized in 1967, when outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever occurred simultaneously in laboratories in Marburg and Frankfurt, Germany and in Belgrade, Yugoslavia (now Serbia). A total of 37 people became ill; they included laboratory workers as well as several medical personnel and Negative stain image of an isolate of Marburg virus, family members who had cared for them. The first people showing filamentous particles as well as the infected had been exposed to African green monkeys or characteristic "Shepherd's Crook." Magnification their tissues. In Marburg, the monkeys had been imported approximately 100,000 times. Image courtesy of for research and to prepare polio vaccine. Russell Regnery, Ph.D., DVRD, NCID, CDC. Where do cases of Marburg hemorrhagic fever occur? Recorded cases of the disease are rare, and have appeared in only a few locations. While the 1967 outbreak occurred in Europe, the disease agent had arrived with imported monkeys from Uganda. No other case was recorded until 1975, when a traveler most likely exposed in Zimbabwe became ill in Johannesburg, South Africa – and passed the virus to his traveling companion and a nurse. 1980 saw two other cases, one in Western Kenya not far from the Ugandan source of the monkeys implicated in the 1967 outbreak.

EXPEDITION GRIMM As the Climax to Year of the Grimms 2013, the Federal State of Hessen Will Present the Exhibition EXPEDITION GRIMM, in the Documenta Hall in Kassel
PRESS RELEASE EXPEDITION GRIMM As the climax to Year of the Grimms 2013, the Federal State of Hessen will present the exhibition EXPEDITION GRIMM, in the documenta Hall in Kassel. This extensive show will examine the exciting life and diverse work of the two brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm are famous around the world, especially for their Children's and Household Tales, which have been translated into roughly 160 languages and which, alongside Luther’s Bible, are among the most commonly translated of German books. But the Brothers Grimm were more than just collectors of fairy tales. They have left behind many traces as philologists, legal historians and politicians; with their German Grammar and German Dictionary they laid the foundations for German philology. To celebrate the Grimm brothers’ huge significance for German cultural history, the Federal State of Hessen has launched this exhibition, EXPEDITION GRIMM. Hessen’s Minister of Science and Art, Eva Kühne-Hörmann, explains the purpose of the show, which she herself proposed: “There are many fascinating connections between the life and works of the Brothers Grimm, and their home country of Hessen. We want to use our exhibition to demonstrate that fact and, above all, to make it clear there’s so much more to the Grimms than just fairy tales.” In three showcases in the documenta Hall in Kassel, EXPEDITION GRIMM displays valuable manuscripts and personal memorabilia of the brothers, and places them in the context of the volatile political circumstances of the time. Works by their artist brother, Ludwig Emil, also show how the Grimm family used to live.

TRAVEL By Vanessa Orr German Fairy Tale Route Makes for a Magical Trip I’ve always wanted to have a fairy-tale vacation, and when I woke up in rose- entwined tower room in the Sleeping Beauty castle in Sababurg, Germany, The Snow White House Americans as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Mother I knew that it had finally happened. I Hulda and Sleeping Beauty, among others. wasn’t as surprised as you might think, Homage is paid to all of these literary characters along though, as I had been following in the the drive, which encompasses numerous towns including Marburg, where the Brothers Grimm studied from 1802-06, to footsteps of the Brothers Grimm along Bergfreiheit, Bad Wildungen, Hessisch Lichtenau, Sababurg and Kassel. While I was not able to complete the full route on the German Fairy Tale Route. my trip, time spent in each of these areas helped me see just how the landscape influenced the brothers’ work—and many The route, which runs about 372 miles (including numerous children’s nighttime fantasies. turn-offs) from Hanau to Bremerhaven, is full of picturesque landscapes, spectacular castles, narrow alleys and charming, Marburg is a charming university town that includes the Grimm timber-framed houses. It is also home to the legends that Path, a winding, hilly walk up to Landgrave Castle, which inspired the Grimm Brothers’ famous book, Children and now serves as a museum of cultural history after numerous Household Tales—tales that might be more familiar to incantations as a fortified castle, residence, garrison, prison Too often, women going through menopause are told to “just deal with it” or that “it’s part of getting older.” That’s fine, unless you’re the one going through menopause.

MARBURG VIRUS [African Hemorrhagic Fever, Green Or Vervet Monkey Disease]
MARBURG VIRUS [African Hemorrhagic Fever, Green or Vervet Monkey Disease] SPECIES: Nonhuman primates, especially african green monkeys & macaques AGENT: Agent is classified as a Filovirus. It is an RNA virus, superficially resembling rhabdoviruses but has bizarre branching and filamentous or tubular forms shared with no other known virus group on EM. The only other member of this class of viruses is ebola virus. RESERVOIR AND INCIDENCE: An acute highly fatal disease first described in Marburg, Germany in 1967. Brought to Marburg in a shipment of infected African Green Monkeys from Uganda. 31 people were affected and 7 died in 1967. Exposure to tissue and blood from African Green monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops) or secondary contact with infected humans led to the disease. No disease occurred in people who handled only intact animals or those who wore gloves and protective clothing when handling tissues. A second outbreak was reported in Africa in 1975 involving three people with no verified contact with monkeys. Third and fourth outbreaks in Kenya 1980 and 1987. Natural reservoir is unknown. Monkeys thought to be accidental hosts along with man. Antibodies have been found in African Green monkeys, baboons, and chimpanzees. 100% fatal in experimentally infected African Green Monkeys, Rhesus, squirrel monkeys, guinea pigs, and hamsters. TRANSMISSION: Direct contact with infected blood or tissues or close contact with infected patients. Virus has also been found in semen, saliva, and urine. DISEASE IN NONHUMAN PRIMATES: No clinical signs occur in green monkeys, but the disease is usually fatal after experimental infection of other primate species. Leukopenia and petechial hemorrhages throughout the body of experimentally infected monkeys, sometimes with GI hemorrhages.

The purified enzyme catalyzed the reversible oxidation of methylenetetrahydrofolate with NADP+ as the electron acceptor at a specific activity of 627 U/mg of protein. The Km values for methylenetetrahydrofolate and for NADP+ were 27 and 113 ,M, respectively. The enzyme, which lacked 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase activity, was insensitive to oxygen and was thermolabile at temperatures above 40C. The apparent molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated by gel filtration to be 66 kDa. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of a single subunit of 34 kDa, accounting for a dimeric a2 structure of the enzyme. Kinetic studies on the initial reaction velocities with different concentrations of both substrates in the absence and presence of NADPH as the reaction product were interpreted to indicate that the enzyme followed a sequential reaction mechanism. After gentle ultracentrifugation of crude extracts, the enzyme was recovered to >95% in the soluble (supernatant) fraction. Sodium (10 FM to 10 mM) had no effect on enzymatic activity. The data were taken to indicate that the enzyme was similar to the methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenases of other homoacetogenic bacteria and that the enzyme is not involved in energy conservation of P.
