Where is the "Seattle Greace Hospital" located?



Grey's Anatomy is an American medical drama television series created by Shonda Rhimes. The series premiered as a mid-season replacement on March 27, 2005 on ABC....
Fisher Plaza, which is the headquarters building for the media company Fisher Communications and Fisher's ABC affiliated KOMO radio and television stations for Seattle, is used for some exterior shots of Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital, such as air ambulances landing on the KOMO-TV newscopter's helipad. This puts Seattle Grace conveniently close to the Space Needle (which is directly across the street from Fisher Plaza), the Seattle Monorail, and other local landmarks. However, the hospital used for most other exterior and many interior shots is not in Seattle; these scenes are shot at the VA Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center in North Hills, California.

Believe it or not, a hospital from the rainy city is located in sunny California!!!!
That means, if you are on a trip to California, visit North Hill and take a look at these nice hospital.

The Best of Boogie Woogie


Hello! Here is some American dance culture. Enjoy!
Turn on your Sound and click on the link
BOOGIEWOOGIE.wmv

If you can take your eyes off her, the male dancer is super . . . never moves his shoulders compared to what his feet and knees are doing. And the top of his head stays at the same height no matter what.
This is a pianist from Switzerland who plays some of the best Boogie Woogie anywhere. He is so BIG over there, they hold a week-long Boogie Woogie contest every year and all the best players in the world are invited. In this video he is joined by 2 amazing dancers... The male dancer even has a haircut from the forties.
Turn up the volume, watch and give it a listen! If you experience any trouble tapping your foot to the beat, you had better hurry and schedule an appointment with your physician.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T REMEMBER,
THIS IS HOW THE BOOGIE WOOGIE WAS DONE!
This one was done exceedingly well....hope you enjoy!

Amerika in Sachsen



Seinen Namen bekam der Ort auf Grund des Umstandes, dass sich in der Ortschaft seit 1836 eine Kattundruckerei befand, die für Besucher nur über die Mulde zu erreichen war – zunächst über einige große Steine, später dann über einen Kahn. Man wurde also über den Teich gezogen, dieser Ausdruck war damals schon für die Reise in die Vereinigten Staaten bekannt und so bürgerte sich der Begriff Amerika an der Mulde für die Fabrik und die Umgebung ein. Aber erst 1876 wurde der Güterbahnhof amtlich als Bahnstation Amerika eingetragen.

Seit dem 1. Januar 1994 gehört Amerika zur Stadt Penig.(Source Wikipedia)
