Baader Meinhof Complex

I will be completely honest and say that the film Baader Meinhof Complex made no sense to me. Yes, I did my research on the RAF before we watched the film and I did my best to catch every subtitle, but the film jumped form scene to scene to quickly and there always seemed to be a new character in each one. 3/4s of the way through I just lost all understanding. I feel that there were plenty of other films that could have provided and enlighten us much more about German culture. This film was more focused on making an action packed thriller full of DEATH, SHOOTING, BOMBING, SEX, and just everything manly! It was something I didn't enjoy watching.
I will say my few positives which are that I had no idea that there was such protest going on in Germany around the Vietnam war. I have seen many American films that only focus on American hippies fighting and protesting against government. (if you have not, then watch the movie "Across the Universe") So Baader Meinhof Complex did show me a view of late 60's, early 70's that I'd never seen before.

The Inventions and Industry of the 18th Century

X-rays

X-rays were discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Konrad von Roentgen (1845-1923). Roentgen was a German physicist who discovered this new form of radiation that allowed him to photograph objects that were hidden behind opaque shields. He even photographed part of his own skeleton. X-rays were soon used as an important diagnostic tool in medicine. Roentgen called these waves "X-radiation" because so little was known about them.

In 1901 Röntgen was awarded the very first Nobel Prize in Physics. Röntgen died on 10 February 1923 from carcinoma of the intestine.
