States of Aggregation
Solid, Liquid, Gaseous
It is winter. Snow and ice transform the landscape into a fairy tale scenery. At sub-zero temperatures, ice crystals form on branches and other objects. The snow cover is not always uniform but sometimes shows varied structures of snow and ice crystals as well. Snow is frozen rain, that is, precipitation falling from the clouds. Clouds, in turn, consist of gaseous water vapour which transforms into precipitation in certain conditions. Where the sun shines and temperatures rise again, snow and ice begin to melt. Thaw sets in, and snow and ice change into water again. But snow and ice can also exist simultaneously. Even at high minus temperatures, streams and rivers still carry water. On their banks, exciting ice formations can develop as a result. Stagnant waters, such as lakes and ponds, however, tend to freeze because the water in them hardly moves. The solid, liquid and gaseous states are the three classic aggregate states. We encounter the interplay between water vapour, liquid water and ice in many situations. Complex physical processes lie behind it. Let us take a closer look at them now.

Resuscitation
It can happen to anyone – of any age, in any place, at any time. Sudden cardiac arrest may quickly prove fatal. Immediate action is called for! Just remember: Check Call Press Anyone can do it. You can't do anything wrong!
Tolerance
“Tolerance means being generous and kind to other people and helping them, too.”
Inclusion
Madita is eleven and blind. She does not want to go to a special school but to a regular grammar school. She says she feels "normal" there. Jonathan is eight and has a walking disability. He likes going to the school where he lives. Here, his best friend sits next to him. Max Dimpflmeier, a teacher who is severely deaf, explains that school life is not easy. Quote Max Dimpflmeier: "You don't want to attract attention, you want to avoid saying that it is necessary for you that 70 people adjust to your situation." People on their way to inclusion.
