So the annual drinkathon that is Oktoberfest is upon us. Apparently it has some kind of reason within Bavarian culture and is held in a place called Theresienwiese or something. But because we here at Generally Speaking are neither German nor do we even know what Bavarian culture is we simply like oktoberfest because of the hot women in ‘classic bavarian dress’ (It looks a lot like corsets and having your lingerie on show basically) and because its another reason to drink. Not that you ever need a reason to drink but it does mean there will actually be other people in the pub and not empty like usual. So without further ado I present to you Oktoberfest girls!
Later on this year there will be a big meeting of high up important type people to discuss the whole global warming and climate change thing that seems to be happening. Big wow I hear you say, well yeah its not that interesting to be honest whenever leaders have big meetings nothing seems to change anyway. But what is interesting is Google have got together with the Danish Government and the Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) and have made a special Google Earth tool that will show predictions of global warming on the earth. It is quite a good way of showing the effects climate change could have in on the world in a simple yet hard hitting way. They also have a video related to it that can be seen below.
It really hits home a lot better when you can see it all in the Google Earth perspective like that.
