Christian Eisenbeiss has beer in his blood. So does Bernhard Sailer. Both are third-generation members of German brewing families, both love their work, and for now, both are brewing up heady profits. But if you had to choose which man represents the future of the troubled German beer industry, it would have to be the New York-born Eisenbeiss (his parents emigrated to the U.S.). He and his sister share a 48% stake in the company that sells more beer to Germans than anyone else - Holsten, on Germany's north coast. Eisenbeiss believes a modern brewer needs...
...exhibit. She is nevertheless disappointed in the show. "Everything started to change," she says. "This exhibit is very defensive, and it excludes what was happening between 1980 and 1989." The show's most distinctive body of work was produced by the Leipzig School, a group of painters led by Bernhard Heisig, Werner Tübke and Mattheuer - artists who walked a tightrope between conformism and independence, and displayed visible links to past masters. Heisig's Beharrlichkeit des Vergessens (Persistence of Forgetting), which deals with German militarism, contains a section from an Otto Dix painting, creating a lineage that transcended...
...Londoners themselves, from long experience, tend to be wryly pessimistic about bold attempts at social engineering. "The charge will simply shift congestion [elsewhere]," says Gary Jennings, a self-employed removal man. "Ken's a bit naive if he thinks this is going to sort out the congestion problems." Concludes Bernhard Oehry, a traffic consultant in Switzerland: "There's a reasonable chance it won't work." Europe's leaders have embraced the policy goal of making life miserable for drivers partly because we were doing such a good job of it ourselves. Last August, French families leaving for vacation were trapped...
...London, where 86 paintings and seven sculptures from the collection of Gabrielle and Werner Merzbacher are on show until mid-November. The Merzbachers, both German-born, moved from the U.S. in 1964 to Switzerland, where Werner, then 36, joined the fur business begun by Gabrielle's paternal grandfather Bernhard Meyer. In the 1970s, the Merzbachers began putting together one of the best private collections of 20th century art. They already had inherited some great pictures from Mayer, who owned important works by Paul Cézanne, Vincent Van Gogh and Matisse. And with these for inspiration, the Merzbachers began building...
...synonymous with victory. In 1995, the Irishman sank the putt that secured a European win on U.S. soil. He hasn't won a tourney since. Europe has some notable names gunning for glory this year. The vast experience of Montgomerie, who has played in five Cups, and German Bernhard Langer, a veteran of nine who has expressed interest in the 2004 captaincy, will steady the team. Also look for Sergio Garc?a and Jesper Parnevik. In 1999, the fiery young Spaniard and the quirkily cool Swede were unbeaten in their four matches together. Two rookies who may make an early impact...
