But central to the exhibition is of course the history of germanys division and eventually coming together as one unified nation. That fateful event in 1990 also paved the way for potsdam to recover some of its historical splendor. In the 30 years since germanys reunification potsdam has and aids a bit quite the contrary actually the city center has been completely agree.

Not since the crisis in 2015 has europe seen images quite like this. Images quite like this. The deputy Prime Minister decribes it is an invasion. Translation it is obviously organised, financed and prepared. It is an act of war because if we go on at 6,000 migrants a day it means collapse for italian society. I said at the beginning, what is happening in lampedusa is the death of europe. 7,000 migrants crossing the mediterranean in just two days to an island with Space Forjust 400. The storm at the beginning of the week had created a bottle neck on the North African beaches. But by wednesday, conditions were calmer. Nearly 200 boats crossed in just a few hours. There are thousands more who are waiting to cross. From here, most of these migrants will be transferred to the italian mainland, but the vast majority will disappear before those Asylum Claims are decided. They are heading north. And that is testing the European Union. Today, one of the leaders of the french far right, marion
Inland areas look to be mostly clear except for the north where we have a few high clouds. Water temperature 49 at bodega bay and the San Francisco buoy. 50s on the temperatures and 40s, quite cool. 46 at glen allen, 49 at mill valley, grade and dipping to 45 which is cool for this time of year. We have major changes on the way. 60s, 70s and 80s. It is 5 01 am. For the most part we are doing pretty well and good morning. Traffic will be okay on 580. We have slide slow traffic on 580 up to 205, slow coming through on 580 and 205. A lot of people are are already out there. If you happened to be getting on the freeway at livermore, it looks pretty good heading to the dublin interchange. No problem on interstate 880 in oakland, looking good in both directions. The bay bridge toll plaza is so far light. 5 02 am.

50s. Upper to mid 40s and mill valley and they are along with glen allen and petaluma at 46. Big changes coming up, 60s, 70s and 80s in the interior. It is 6 01 am. I would not recommend using the san mateo bridge. Westbound 92 heading to the high rise, there was an earlier crash several vehicles. They eventually ended up pulling them off of that damaged the commute which is very slow leaving hayward out to the peninsula. I will put this on the map to show you the road sensors that are showing pretty much all the way across the san mateo bridge. We have slow traffic because of the earlier crash. The dumbarton bridge is your best bet and it is looking pretty good although you may have to get down with a little bit of slow traffic on the nimitz freeway. A look at the interstate 880 in oakland in case you want to take the bay bridge, and that bay bridge commute is much more ordinary. It is backed up but that is a normal way. A 20 to 25 minute delay to make it onto the actual bridge span.
