Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770-1827)
Considered by many to be the greatest musician ever, Ludwig van Beethoven's early life was not so great. As an adult he was frequently ill; he began having periodic hearing problems when he was 28, and by the time he was 44 he was stone-deaf. He was embarrassed by his deafness, so kept himself socially confined; he never reconciled himself with the deafness. He had to quit directing an orchestra, and about the only musical avenue left open to him was composing. Because he could not perform his compositions he was not paid a great deal, and spent the last years of his life in poverty. He was often a quarrelsome man, at outs with family members and others, and this seemed to worsen in direct proportion to his growing deafness. It is amazing that someone who grew up in the home he did, who was personally slovenly, who was often angry and quarrelsome, could have ever written the beautiful compositions he did, even when he still had his hearing!

Germany’s Fiscal Reform: Big Boost for Business
During its last meeting on Friday 14th July in Bonn the Bundesrat has approved the biggest financial reform in German history. The reform bill was prepared by finance minister Hans Eichel, while chancellor Gerhard Schröder did his best to guarantee its passage in parliament. Facing growing pressure from public opinion, the opposition Christian Democrats were not able to block the reform in the chamber of regions. Schröder’s SPD-Greens coalition has lately realized a whole line of important political successes and is now expected to arrive in pole position at the next general elections in 2002. Their chances will even grow, if the fiscal reform works like expected and the economy takes advantage of the new favorable business conditions. The Frankfurt stock exchange and several industry leaders have already given an enthusiastic salute to the reform which will lessen fiscal pressure by 60 billion DM a year. The economic and political consequences of this breakthrough will soon be felt all over the continent, where the competition for the best fiscal favor has just begun.
