An entire town turned into a giant drive-through art galleries, private-sponsored park areas and an architectural route in Magdeburg along the river Elbe.

These are some of the many urban solutions, architecture fans can experience at the 1,200 square meter exhibition "Weniger ist Zukunft" in the UNESCO town of Dessau in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt.

Eight years of work precedes, where the architects, historians and sociologists, and especially Saxony-Anhalt's population worked together to build the exhibition. And they have through models, videos, cartoons and photographs managed to create the exhibition "Weniger ist Zukunft" so it becomes a visual picture of the total provincial architectural history and future.

The exhibition takes place at the Headquarters of the German Bauhaus design movement, an impressive modernist building of the German UNESCO city of Dessau.

Exhibition is a part of the final year of the big construction project IBA Stadtumbau 2010, focused on major urban conversion of 19 towns in Saxony-Anhalt. One of the future concepts that visitors can experience, is the use of unoccupied buildings and empty spaces in the transformation of an entire city into one big run-through gallery. Another idea is the creation of many more green spaces through a series of "green zones", sponsored by the local inhabitants. In addition, a new architecture route in the city of Magdeburg, which shows how the river Elbe to retake its place as the cultural and natural magnet.

Combined with the many sites included on UNESCO's world heritage list, including the medieval town of Quedlinburg and Luther cities of Wittenberg und Eisleben, named after the famous German reformer Martin Luther (1483-1546), the Saxony-Anhalt will be, a popular destination for architecture fans who want to to discover how future cities will look like.

BEST COLON CLEANSE on 01/02/2012 06:15:24

More and more people are developing colon related diseases like cancer. This is because the colon is the part of the digestive system which is more exposed to toxins. All the foods we eat will be taken up by the digestive system together with all the nutrients. Everything that is left by it will be the remnants carrying toxins. The colon is where all these are piled up before being released through the rectum. In some cases, these remnants carrying toxins are not eliminated. This will damage the walls of the colon that sometimes develop into cancerous cells.

There are many different things these programs will throw at you, there is one that suggests you consume a certain fruit juice for the duration of your cleanse without any other intakes, others suggest supplements to speed the process along. There are others that simply ask you to change your diet. Most of them work to the same degree but take varying amounts of time. But there are some that work in a single day as well. But you need to realize these type of programs are fairly intense. It make take a few days off from your daily activities as well as some time alone.
