How many colors can you count in this sunset near Wakeman, Ohio, at the end of an early winter day? Nature is showing much of its color range.

Shahida, 14, from Bangladesh has her birth certificate. Shahida has been at a Plan-supported drop-in centre for 4 years. She came to Dhaka, the capital, with her parents and 5 siblings and stayed in a one-room flat. Her father married another woman, so her mother went to work as a live-in maid. Shahida went with her. But the house-owner was abusive so she ran away to the street. There are 13 centres like this in Dhaka, looking after a total of 2,600 children. The centres also arrange for the children to get birth certificates. They have arranged for nearly 3,000 children to obtain birth certificates.

German students are raising awareness about the need to invest in birth registration – one fingerprint at a time!

Since November, Plan Germany's Youth Advisory Panel and Plan Action Youth Group have been running activities to collect as many prints as possible. The final display will be handed over to the German government as a kind of petition to call for the realisation of universal birth registration within effective, comprehensive and rights based civil registration and vital statistics systems.

PALAIS FÜRSTENBERG ERDÖDY

The property originally belonged to the monastery "Maria Porta Coeli", which was also named after the Himmelpfortgasse in which the palace stands. Then it became the property of Count Aspermont family , from 1714 it passed to the Count Erdoedy family and finally to the Landgrave zu Fürstenberg, today John Prince and Landgrave of Fürstenberg.

The building in its present state was built before 1724, probably, according to designs of the architect of the Palais Breuner Singerstraße 16.

The building has five floors and seven axes, a simple facade, a rich portal with balcony and overlying crest of Fürstenberg coat of arms. The passage hall with vaulted ceilings leads to the typical Viennese courtyard. The palace has a simple staircase, therefore beautiful rooms with stucco decorations on the main floor.

Palais Fürstenberg Erdoedy

On the history of Prince Ferenc Rákóczi (1676-1735):

The name Rákóczi is since the 17th Century associated with the armed revolts and uprisings against the Habsburg rule. Three of the ancestors were princes of Transylvania, his father and his mother fought with armed force against the Hungarian independence and thus achieved its place in the history of Hungary. Thus the fate of Prince Ferenc Rákóczi was predetermined: revolt and struggle.

The Turks inflicted Hungary in 1526 a heavy defeat at the Battle of Mohács, the independent Hungarian state succumbing the Ottoman Empire. A portion of the states (Stände) selects János Szapolyai, another Ferdinand of Habsburg as king. 1541 the Turks occupy other parts of Hungary, the country is broken into three parts, the majority is ending up under the rule of Turks. In the north and west, the Habsburgs are recognized as rulers and Transylvania, due to the Treaty of Speyer in 1570, becomes independent principality.

Probably not only for rendering the Hungarians service, but certainly more to protect the kingdom against the Turkish invasions, the Habsburg emperor lent Hungary a hand against the Turks and expelled them in the years 1683-1699 from their country. However, the Hungarians wanted their freedom back and again and again were inflaming revolts and rebellions against the imperial family. In the 1690s the Prince frequently stayed in Vienna in the palace of Count Aspermont (today Palais Fürstenberg Erdoedy ). A rebellion in 1700 was so bloodily suppressed by the ruling Habsburgs, that Rákóczi began to organize himself against the ruler. But he was captured, his wife saved his life.

1703, the Hungarian people rose again against the domination of the Austrians, and so Rákóczi saw himself again appointed leader. In the same year he sent to the French Sun King Louis XIV numerous bottles from his winery in northeastern Hungary, the Tokaj wine district, which is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since June 2002, as a gift. This was full of praise, he said: "Vinum Regnum, Rex Vinorum - wine of kings, king of wines". Rákóczi by now stood at the top of the longest and most successful freedom struggle of the Hungarians, whose prince he became later.

There were troubled times, the Austrians fought against the French in Western Europe, and so succeeded the Hungarians to the year 1707almost completely expell the imperial Labanc-army out of their country. Although the light cavalry of the Hungarian Kuruc-army with their frightening suppressions had an effect, it succumbed mostly in major battles and was less efficient against well-organized enemy armies. The French and Russians allied themselves with the Hungarian Prince Rákóczi, but he received little support and so the struggle for freedom ultimately fell, despite social and economic reforms by the wayside.

Although by the peace of 1711 part of the problems could be solved, yet, the prince was prefering emigration over amnesty. He fled to Poland and on to Turkey to write down in Tekirdag on the shores of the Marmara Sea he's belletristic memoirs and reflections. He was buried in 1906 in Košice Cathedral.

At the Palais Fürstenberg Erdoedy reads:

In this building stayed during his repeated visits to Vienna in the 1690s Prince Ferenc Rákóczi II, who was later to lead the Hungarian war of independence from 1703 to 1711.

The same text in Hungarian: Ennek az épüleinek a helyen Allt a XVII. század céqén az Aspremont - palota. Ilt szállt meq qyakori bécsi tartózkodásai idején az 1690 - it években Ferenc II Rákóczi, az 1703-1711 évi maqyar szabadsáqharc Vézère.
