Das ist mein erstes Blog in Deutsch. Wie alles anders, jeder Anfang ist schwer und es wäre gut, wenn Sie meine Fehler übersehen und der Sinn des Blogs ergreifen :)
Seit 2006 gibt es jedes Jahr einen Anlass in der Schweiz, der Energy Day heisst. Dieses Jahr läuft dieser Tag unter dem Motto 'Abschalten!'.
Man kann überall die Wichtigkeit des Tages fühlen. Die Schweizer Zeitungen widmen viele Seiten dem Energy Day und erzählen ausführlich warum Energie sparen eine grosse Bedeutung für den Staat hat.
Die Zeitungen stellen den Begriff 'Energieeffizienz' vor. Das bringt manchmal ein weitgehendes Missverständnis, dass ich diskutieren möchte. Energieeffizienz bedeutet nicht, dass man den gewohnten Lebensstandard abgeben muss, sondern die gleiche Nützen mit weniger Energieverbrauch erzielen. Das ist durchaus möglich, wenn man eine Reihe von praktischen Tipps folgt. Am Energy Day werden die Schweizer noch ein mal mit diesen Tipps bekannt. Ein dieser Tipps ist der folgende:
'Say Good bye to StandBy'
Wenige von uns erfassen wie viel Elektrizität gespart ist, wenn man die Elektrogeräte abschaltet. Dieser 'Halbschlaf' der Geräte kostet annähernd 130 Millionen Franken pro Jahr!! Aus diesem Hintergrund, bieten verschiedene Geschäfte am Energy Day freie Steckerleisten vor. Damit kann man nur mit einem Knopfdruck viele Elektrogeräte auschalten. Zudem machen die Geschäfte grossen Rabatt von energieeffizienten Haushaltgeräte. Da in jeder Haushalt es ungefähr 15 Elektrogeräte gibt, ist es extrem wichtig an die Zukunft zu denken und sich für die energieeffizienteste Geräte zu entscheiden. Vergessen Sie nicht auch die Licht auszumachen, wenn Sie nicht in dem Zimmer sind. Das alles hilft Ihrem Geldbeutel und auch die Umwelt.
Es gibt noch einen Begriff, den ich hier vorstellen möchte - die EnergieStadt. In der Schweiz gibt es ungefähr 160 Städte, die einer nachhaltige Umwelt-, Transport-, und Energiepolitik führen. Diese Städte sparen jährlich zusammen etwa 74000 Tonnen CO2, 30 Millionen Litre Brennstoff und 68 Millionen Kilowattstunden Strom. (COOP Zeitung, 21 Oktober 2008). 10 von diesr Städten haben auch die European Energy Award GOLD bekommen, unter denen sind Zürich, Basel, Lausanne, Schaffhausen.
Den European EnergyAward® Silber erhalten Gemeinden, wenn sie mindestens die Hälfte der möglichen Maßnahmen umgesetzt haben.
Um den European Energy Award® Gold zu erreichen, müssen in einer Gemeinde mindestens 75 Prozent der möglichen energierelevanten Maßnahmen umgesetzt sein.
(Infoblatt).
Als ich klein war, wurde ich oft von meiner Grossmutter gesagt: 'Lichte aus, Kleines!'. Dann habe ich mir gedacht, 'Ja, vielleicht sagt sie dass, weil sie kein Geld hat den Strom zu bezahlen'. Das war wirklich so. Deshalb habe ich gedacht, es war modern, wenn man so viel Elektrizität verbrauchen kann, wie man will. Ich habe gedacht, dass das ein Zeichen von der fortgeschrittener Welt war. Heute denke ich anders. Heute glaube ich, dass Energieffiezienz sehr nötig für unsere erfolgreiche Zukunft ist. Wir und niemand sonst gestalten die Zukunft. Wir sollen so wenig wie möglich benutzen, um unsere Ziele zu erreichen. Also... noch mal die Botschaft meines erstes Deutschblogs und des EnergyDay 2008: Abschalten!

My favorite Radio Host :)
Retro radio scored a 10 by entrusting the morning show in the hands of this guy :) Here he comes in all his glory - Dimitar Pavlov:
He is the funniest, most original and most sincere host I have heard. There is nothing that can stop him from sharing what he thinks. When Retro Radio was running, I could not imagine more fun from 7 till 11am. He writes his scripts alone. He makes his program alone. He makes people laugh out loud while being stuck in a typical boring Sofia traffic jam. And by no further means than just being himself :)
Dimitar Pavlov is a truly cool person, with a happy heart, whose best quality is that he doesn't take himself too seriously. That is what makes me like him and listen to him daily. When he is given the freedom to talk what he wants, I seriously can't get enough of him.
Here is his Morning Program:
Retro Radio: Mon-Fri
07:00 Wake up song
Sometimes only one song is enough to get you out of bed. Expect the wake-up hit every morning exactly at 7 :)
07:10 Breakfast suggestion
Personal recipes for a healthy start of the day.
08:10 Currency
The only currency information of its kind :) It can freak out representatives of different financial institutions. Listen daily to the adventures of the american dollar, british puns, swiss frank and the euro.
08:30 Office Aerobics
A 'useful' set of exercises for early office arrivers.
09:10 Daily Horoscope
A huge mess of zodiac signs, mentioned with no sense.
09:20 Man of the day
Three nominations, only one award. Listen to the decision of the corrupted jury.10:10 Sport for a peaceful world
10:30 What is happening with your money today
You are better off not knowing about that :)
Specials on Friday:
Honest talk with Engineer Donev (scientific discoveries of Kamen Donev - a Bulgarian actor)
Top 10 (radio version of the TV show)
Useful advice to housewives and young mothers
None of these contains practical information, just extremely funny useless selection of words, which only has for a purpose to make you laugh. But isn't this what all of us want on our way to work?

Wallpapers for RetroRadio
For two years I was obsessed with Retro Radio. This was a very cool Bulgarian radio station, which was running from 2001 until 2007. I was so happy it existed, because it gave this fresh, intelligent, funny and smart touch to the radio media.
As every other institution, the success was there thanks to the people working in it. They worked hard to make the program as it was, the sound as it was and the effect as it was. It had a mix of everything and at the same time it was not a mess, but rather a nice everyday companion. Luckily, I got to know these people during my 3-month internship at Retro in 2005 :)
As I mentioned, I really liked the program schedule. Retro music was not just randomly aired with no meaning. Instead it was structured and served, reminding me of yummy dishes at different times of the day - sometimes it came as a lovely romantic dinner, sometimes like a rocky breakfast, sometimes bringing me a nostalgic feeling of something I liked to eat in the past, sometimes like a light Sunday brunch.
Every show on Retro had a really cool jingle attached to it. I loved listening to those jingles, so in a moment of some inspiration and idleness, I made the following two wallpapers.
Funky Time was a set of songs that made me have this 'cool' feeling about retro music. It was running every Saturday afternoon.
'I'm feeling good... on Friday... with Retro Radio' was a random jingle, not connected to any show. It was just reminding me it is Friday and I am again listening to good music.
At 12 am each night, Retro used to air an incredibly nice slow song - just instrumental. I never learned by whom it was. Not because I didn't want to. No. It was because I knew it will come every night at 12. That was exactly when I wanted to hear it. I didn't need it more than once per day.
But... es every beautiful thing, this one came to an end. And I will never know who authored this lovely romantic piece... :) Still, it is kinda nice!
