Ein veloheld.lane 2x10 in Wunschausstattung und Wunschfarbe – diesmal in kräftigen Ultramarinblau (RAL 5002). Die Ausstattung wurde auch ein wenig "upgegradet". So wird der Kontakt zum Rad über einen Brooks Cambium Sattel und Ergon Griffe hergestellt. Damit die Nacht taghell wird bekam das Rad eine SON Beleuchtung mit Shutter Precision Nabendynamo. Abgestellt wird das neue Rad mit einem Hebie Seitenständer. Und damit man sich im Verkehr auch aufmerksam machen kann, gibt es am Lenker noch die Knog Oi Fahrradklingel. Seht Ihr sie?
Wir wünschen dem neuen Besitzer viel Spaß mit dem neuen Rad. Wir freuen uns immer wieder über solche individuellen Kundenräder. Welche Ideen habt Ihr für Euer ganz persönliches veloheld.lane Citybike? Sagt es uns…

Und weil heute Sonntag ist und bei uns morgen sogar Feiertag (und ich endlich wieder Internet habe ;-)), gibt es diesmal zwei Beiträge.
BARlesque - Verliebt. Verkauft. Verloren.
heißt das diesjährige Musicalprojekt des Fachbereich Lehramt Musik der HfM Dresden. Bereits das dritte Mal haben die Studentierenden der Hochschule für Musik gemeinsam ein Musiktheaterstück entwickelt und auf die Bühne gebracht.
Die Lieder dieses Musicals sind selbst komponiert, die Idee zum Stück kommt von Martin Krimse, das Libretto aus den Federn von Benjamin Hecht und Christoph Grusenick.
Ich hatte das Vergnügen bei der Uraufführung dabei zu sein - und es war grandios!
Herrlich umgesetzt mit Musik von Maximilian Nicolai, Sabine Dietze, Martin Kirmse, Enrico Olivanti zauberten die Studierenden ein kurzweiliges Stück über Liebe und Träume, Kariere und Scheitern.
Unter der Gesamtleitung von Prof. Claudia Schmidt-Krahmer in der Regie mit Sinah Seim Olesch und Merlind Pohl faszinierten sie das Publikum aufs neue. Während die Putzfrau, hoffnungslos verliebt in den Pianisten, sich voller Hoffnungen durch das Leben schlägt ist der Manager bereits satt und hält die Mühlen am Laufen.
Selbst die Showgirls wissen wie der Hase läuft - Job ist Job. Da bringt die Neue richtig Wirbel ins Haus und begeistert in ihrer herrlichen Rolle Barbesucher und Publikum.
Wie ein Griff aus dem Leben untermalt von hinreißend herzhaftem Gesang in muskalischer Leitung von Christoph Grusenick, wirkt hier der Blick ins Geschehen. Die einen Träumen, die anderen Trinken oder ziehen die Fäden und wollen die Rechnungen nicht bezahlen.
So trägt auch auch Oliver Fenk seinen Beitrag bei und lässt unsere Showgirls im richtigen roten Neonlicht tanzen und stehen.
Sehen konnte man das Stück vom 6. bis 9. Oktober jeweils 19:00 Uhr im Kraftwerk Mitte, Haus 2.5. Hoffentlich gibt es bald wieder eine derart überraschend spritzige Bühnenshow.

Close-up of the crocodile-eye-like lenticel, hence the name "bakau mata buaya" ("crocodile-eye mangrove"). Bruguiera hainesii C.G.Rogers. Rhizophoraceae. CN: [Malay and regional vernacular names - Berus mata buaya, Bakau mata buaya, Bakau cantik langka, Tongke], Saung-po (Burmese), Orange mangrove. The Malay name "bakau mata buaya" literally translates to "crocodile eye mangrove" in reference to the large eye-like lenticel along the length of its bark. A IUCN Critically Endangered species with an estimated 200 trees left in the wild due to habitat loss. This species has a very limited patchy distribution. It has been known to be previously present in South Asia in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, Philippines, Papua New Guinea and Singapore. However, current estimates of known individuals are only from Singapore, Malaysia and Papua New Guinea. Habitat - intermediate estuarine zone in the high intertidal region; landward margins of mangroves. It has very low rates of propagation and low rates of germination. It takes 18 months to go through maturation cycle. It can grow up to 30 m tall. Evergreen tree up to 33 m tall, with a trunk of up to 70 cm in diameter. Bark is brown to grey, with large, corky, yellowish-brown lenticels from base to top. The pointed leaves are elliptic-oblong, 9-16 by 4-7 cm. The flower cluster is 2-3-flowered, and flowers are 18-22 mm long when fully expanded. The calyx is pale green, 10-lobed, with a 5 mm wide tube, and lobes the same length as the tube. Petals are white, 7-9 mm long, hairy on the lower margins and only slightly so on the upper part of the lobes. Lobes have 2-4 bristles at the tip and the bristle in the notch far exceeds the length of the tip of the lobe. The hypocotyl (often mistaken for the fruit) is cigar-shaped or slightly thickened towards the end, slightly curved, up to 1.1 by 9 cm.
