Hundreds of bottles fell to the floor. The reason: a shelf, ten meters long, had fallen over. Two people received minor injuries, among them a boy (11) who had slipped on a puddle of liquor. Apparently an employee had stocked the shelf inexpertly: (heavy) bottles on one side, much lighter items on the other. Balance was lost. The commercial authority was alerted."<br /><br />Below the tracklist:<br /><br />A quote from what seems to be a book about the role of women in music throughout history.<br /><br />"But as early as the 4th century clerical edicts began to appear which prohibit all this; thus Bishop Hyppolyte: 'Any woman who attracts people with the beautiful but treacherous sweetness of her voice, which is full of temptation to sin, must give up her profession and wait 40 days if she wishes to receive communion. Only then may she receive the sacrament.' Yet female urge and female talent for music could not be suppressed despite manifold prohibitions. From the 9th century at the latest we again have evidence of a rich musical tradition in some nunneries."<br /><br />By the way, if you're tagging German titles with umlauts that you can't type, it's generally better to replace them with a following e (e.g. ue for ü) than to drop them entirely. That's the usual convention if the dots aren't available.Rowboatnoreply@blogger.com
