Abibuch 1996 Eimsbütteler Modell

Ich habe gerade die geilste Entdeckung gemacht!
Da hat jemand das ganze Abi-Jahrbuch des Jahrgangs '96 ins Internet gepackt (tolle Wortwahl).
Leider ist es nicht mein Jahrgang, aber immerhin. Am besten sind die Lehrerzitate, vor allem die des Herrn Bloess's, dessen Lehrkunst ich auch im Geschichts-GK geniessen durfte:

- "Ich denke immer, sie halten mich für irgendeinen Opa,
der vor sich hinbrabbelt, weil er auf der Parkbank
keinen anderen Gesprächspartner gefunden hat!"

Es waere ja wirklich mal nett, zu versuchen, unser Jahrbuch virtuell zu veroeffentlichen, aber ich hab echt keine Lust das zu machen, vor allem weil ich keine Ahnung habe, wie ich das anstelle.

Naja, ich werde heute abend mal mein jahrbuch vorkramen und ein bisschen von den "good-old times" schwaermen...

CNN.com - Giant asteroid could hit Earth in 2014

Well, I am not really into science but I am fascinated by space and, of course, headlines such as these.
The funny thing is, that just after it says that a GIANT asteroid could hit earth it says:
But for those fearing Armageddon, don't be alarmed -- the chances of a catastrophic collision are just one in 909,000.
Then why write a headline like that?

CNN.com - Agent: Police did their best for man wearing bomb

I have been meaning to post on this story ever since I heard about it last night (I haven't watched TV all weekend long!!!).
That is the strangest thing I have ever heard and I can't imagine having anything like that happening to me.
Who would do anything like that? And believe they could get away with that?
I hope they solve this because it is somewhat irritating that, whoever did this, is still out there and could possibly do this to somebody else.
