Pfarrer Braun
''Pfarrer Braun'' is a German television series. It is based on the character of Father Brown, originally created by G. K. Chesterton. The last episode of the series (Brauns Heimkehr) was produced in 2013 and aired on March 20, 2014. The reason for discontinuing the series was Ottfried Fischer's (Pfarrer Braun actor) advancing health problems, as the production company announced in May 2013. Plot Pfarrer Guido Braun investigates a case, which usually results in a punitive transfer and thus the establishment of a new plot location for the next episode. If he sees an injustice, he wants to put an end to it, defying the explicit prohibition of his bishop Hemmelrath. In sometimes not entirely kosher ways, he contributes to the solution of the case with the support of his sacristan Armin Knopp, his housekeeper Margot Roßhauptner and the clumsy chief inspector Geiger. Main Characters Pfarrer Guido Braun - despite the explicit prohibition by his bishop Hemmelrath - cannot refrain ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Adaptations Of Works By G
In biology, adaptation has three related meanings. Firstly, it is the dynamic evolutionary process of natural selection that fits organisms to their environment, enhancing their evolutionary fitness. Secondly, it is a state reached by the population during that process. Thirdly, it is a phenotypic trait or adaptive trait, with a functional role in each individual organism, that is maintained and has evolved through natural selection. Historically, adaptation has been described from the time of the ancient Greek philosophers such as Empedocles and Aristotle. In 18th and 19th century natural theology, adaptation was taken as evidence for the existence of a deity. Charles Darwin proposed instead that it was explained by natural selection. Adaptation is related to biological fitness, which governs the rate of evolution as measured by change in allele frequencies. Often, two or more species co-adapt and co-evolve as they develop adaptations that interlock with those of the other ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Stradivarius

They are considered some of the finest instruments ever made, and are extremely valuable collector's items. According to their reputation, the quality of their sound has defied attempts to explain or equal it, though this belief is disputed. The many blind experiments from 1817 to as recently as 2014 have found no difference in sound between Stradivari's violins and high-quality violins in comparable style of other makers and periods, nor has acoustic analysis. The fame of Stradivarius instruments is widespread, appearing in numerous works of fiction. Construction Stradivari made his instruments using an inner form, unlike the French copyists, such as Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume, Vuillaume, who employed an outer form.
