In the 1920s, Berlin established itself as a cultural center with many new opera houses, museums, concert halls and libraries opening. People sought entertainment and fun after World War 1 and economic turmoil. Popular venues like the Wintergarten, Skala and Clarchens Ballhaus hosted dancing, variety acts, and performances that came to define the era. Hotels like the Adlon also rose to prominence, attracting famous international guests like Albert Einstein, the Mann family, and Josephine Baker, becoming symbols of the cultural vibrancy and decadence of the "Roaring 20s" in Berlin.

The acquisition process of scanner data for food and grocery products, started at the end of 2014, has progressively enlarged Istat database, which by the end of 2015 will include data coming from 37 provinces, pushing the territorial coverage of the data to 55% of the Italian population. The availability of highly detail information about quantities and turnover for a huge number of products sold by chain stores on weekly basis - made possible by the use of scanner data - opened the possibility for the adoption of more precise aggregation schemes at the lowest level of aggregation of indices. To address the issue, we carried out a preliminary analysis of different index formulas which focuses on fixed base indices only. The analysis confirms that the elasticity of the demand in each specific market plays a relevant role in deciding the most appropriate formula for the aggregation of the elementary indices and seem to suggest the use of a case by case approach for the compilation of indices at the lowest level of aggregation.

Berlin is famed throughout Europe and beyond for its
nightlife, the unofficial home of European techno music,
expect dark smoke-filled rooms and dancing until the
not-so-early hours of the morning. Although, there are
a multitude of alternatives – like jazz nights and jam
sessions – if electronica is not your thing. For Berliners,
the night doesn’t really get going until after midnight.
Club queues are longest around 2 – 3am. Most places
have a dressed-down feel – no heels or figure hugging
dresses here. Don a pair of black jeans, a dark shirt and
a bored expression for the best chance of entry. Average
entry fee is around 10€, a reasonable price to pay for
the pleasure of exploring the buildings and listening
to the talent on the decks. Most of the bigger clubs will
stay open until past noon, and some, like Sisyphos and
Berghain, stay open all weekend, so a night out never
need come to a premature end.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. Amusement in Berlin
In the 1920s Berlin was a cultural metropolis
and the third largest city. After the World War
and the inflation the people were looking for
something new, something different. Berlin
established several opera houses, museums,
concert halls, libraries, and more. For example
in west Berlin there was the „Skala“, it was the
western pendant to the „Wintergarten“ in east
Berlin. The people were always looking for
places where they can see the best show, and
where they can have the most fun. The people
danced like crazy to Charleston music, and
also the famous American dancer Josephine
Backer showed her talent with a lot of sex
appeal. The 1920s are also called the „golden
20s“,in which women emanzipated herself.
Women started wearing pants, trousers, they
cut their hair, and they wore sexy clothes like
feather boas. Women also started to smoke
cigaretts in public.

3. Clärchens Ballhaus
The "Clärchens Ballhaus" opened September, 13rd 1893 under the name Bühlers
Ballhaus. After Bühler died his wife Clara changed the name from Bühlers to
Clärchens Ballhaus. It survived two world wars. Until the 1940 a lot of people where
able to have fun in the two-story building: The lower hall was for the simple folk and
in the upper hall the upper class had fun.
Since 1944 the Ballhaus was only used for knitting afternoons and also for partys
and in the upper hall was probably an officer casino.
After the reunion from Germany Clärchens Ballhaus was a family business, until
2005 where Christian Schulz and David Regeher took over the building.
Today is the Clärchens Ballhaus a really famous place for fun and dance for every
age .It is so popular because of the still existing historical feeling. Today is the same
as earlier celebrated much in Clärchens Ballhaus

4. Hotel Adlon
The Berlin Hotel Adlon opened October, 23rd 1907. It was an investment of 350 million
euro. It was built next to the “Brandenburger Tor” and at the “Pariser Platz”, because
Lorenz Adlon, the owner of the hotel, wanted to have the address “Unter den Linden 1”.
The Germans hated the hotel at the beginning because to build it, other houses got
destroyed who weren’t supposed to, because the emperor needed money. The Adlon
Hotel was also one of the first hotels with an elevator.
The hotel got very popular in the “Weimar Republic” and started to become a hot spot,
and a meeting point for international meetings in the golden 1920s. People could drink
tea or listen to the violin. There were also big parties and shows with famous guests like
Albert Einstein, who loved the Adlon Hotel. Also Thomas Mann and his wife stayed at the
hotel. Josephine Baker, who got popular in the 20s was famous for crazy shows. One of
the craziest things she did was to get from the hotel to the show she took a carriage; but
instead of a horse, she took an ostrich to drag her to the theatre.
At the end of the World War II a big fire nearly destroyed the entire hotel.
The family Adlon was able to rebuild it after the wall had fallen. The only new
thing was that The Adlon had one more level for more guests. The new Adlon is just
as international as the old one. Stars and famous has already been guests in this
hotel.

6. Wintergarten Varieté
The Wintergarten Varieté seems to be trapped in an atmosphere of the 1920s. It impresses by
contemporary Varieté programs of the highest class. The first Wintergarten already existed from
about 1887 to 1944 at the citytrainstation Friedrichstraße in Berlin-Mitte.
From 1877 on the old Wintergarten was part of the
“Central Hotel”: a strung-out room with a length of
75m, a width of 23m, and a total area of about 1,700
square meters. The room had a vaulted dome of glass
and at the highest point of the roof it measured 18m.
The Wintergarten was lighted by a large number of gas
lamps which at night looked like having many shining
stars inside of the glass roof. Bernhard Sehring had the
idea of hanging artificial stars into the ceiling of the
Wintergarten. Many bulbs were attached to the ceiling
and thus evoked a nice atmosphere. By the autumn of
1881 the Winter-garten Varieté with its luxurious interior became widely accepted
as a musical and entertaining venue among the rich Berlin audience who was by then rather
visiting the Berlin philharmonic hall. Until 1886 the program mostly consisted of instrumentals
and concerti of well known compositions. From then on the program had been expanded and
also dancers and singers had been engaged.
7. Wintergarten Varieté
Through the combination of dancers, singers and a band the first Varieté program in
Wintergarten was soon created. It was not only attractive for many different artists but
also for business men who experimented with this kind of new form of theatrical-artistic
expression. The appeal of the unlikely, the pleasure to be amazed and the yearning to
roaring laughter had a big influence on the orientation of the program.
Typical for a Varieté was the frequent exchange of the program and thus newer and
bigger sensations had to be shown. Therefore the first public and commercial film
screening took place in the Wintergarten on 1 November 1895 where Max and Emil
Skladanowsky showed their Bioscop within the Varieté program.
In the Wintergarten Varieté many spectacular attractions like acrobatics, juggling,
performances and more took place and aimed to magic up breathlessness, excitement
and thrilling heart throb.
