Siegessäule
The or Victory Column is a famous sight in Berlin.
Abstract
Abstraction is the process of leaving out certain details of an idea or a concept to make it more general. The word abstract has the following connections:
Siegessäule
It was designed after 1864 to remember Prussia winning the Danish-Prussian war. By the time it was finished on 2 September 1873 Prussia had also beat Austria in the Austro-Prussian War (1866) and France in the Franco-Prussian War (1870/1871). A bronze sculpture of Victoria was added. Victoria was 8.3 m high and weighed 35 tonnes. Berliners like to give nicknames to famous buildings. They call the statue Goldelse, meaning something like "Golden Lizzy". She also has the nickname of "Chick on a Stick".
Tibor Méray
Tibor Méray (6 April 1924 – 12 November 2020) was a Hungarian journalist and writer. He worked for many newspapers such as for Szabad Nép and Csillag. He was a war correspondent for Szabad Nép during the Korean War.
Siegessäule
The column was built in the Königsplatz, now the Platz der Republik, in front of the Reichstag building. It had three blocks of sandstone decorated by cannons taken from the enemies in the three wars. In 1938 the column was moved to its present location, and a fourth ring, decorated with golden garlands was added.
Tibor Méray
He co-wrote the 1969 comedy spy novel Catch Me a Spy, which was later made into a 1971 movie To Catch a Spy starring Kirk Douglas.
Siegessäule
Around the base are four bronze reliefs showing the three wars and the winning army marching into Berlin. They were made by four Berlin sculptors:
Tibor Méray
Méray died on 12 November 2020 in Paris at the age of 96.
Siegessäule
These reliefs were taken away in 1945. The French occupying army did not want to remind Germans about old victories. French president François Mitterrand returned the reliefs in time for Berlin's 750th anniversary of Berlin.
The monument is now on the Großer Stern (Great Star). Many roads meet here, so there are four tunnels under the roads to the monument, and it is possible to climb the steps inside the column and look out over Berlin. If the Nazis had not moved the column it would probably have been destroyed in World War II.
The column is in Wim Wenders' film Wings of Desire. In the film it is the place where angels meet. The golden statue on the column was in the music video to U2's "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" and inspired Paul van Dyk's 1998 trance music hit, "For an Angel".
"El Ángel" in Mexico City looks a lot like the Berlin victory column.
The Victory Column is open every day: April-October 9:30am-6:30pm November-March 9:30am-5:30pm.

In 1909, he married a woman named Katsuko Ito and he had seven children with her: three sons and four daughters.
In the late 1930s, Hideki Tōjō fought in the Second Sino-Japanese War, leading Japanese forces in occupied Manchuria and engaged in the Nanking Massacre, human experimentation at Unit 731, and sexual slavery of mostly Korean women and girls known under the euphemism of Comfort women. He returned to Tokyo in 1940 and held ministerial posts, where he urged an alliance with Germany and Italy against the Allied forces. Tojo became Prime Minister in 1941 and within two months ordered a surprise attack on U.S. naval forces in Hawaii. (The subsequent attack on Pearl Harbor was planned by Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto.)
After Japan surrendered, American troops went to arrest Tojo and surrounded his house. He shot himself four times in the chest, but missed and the bullets hit his stomach. Disarmed and with blood gushing out of his chest, Tojo began to talk. He said, "I am very sorry it is taking me so long to die. The Greater East Asia War was justified and righteous. I am very sorry for the nation and all the races of the Greater Asiatic powers. I wait for the righteous judgment of history. I wished to commit suicide but sometimes that fails."
After his injuries healed, the Allies found Tojo guilty of war crimes and hanged him in Tokyo on 23 December 1948.

Phyllis Smith
Phyllis Smith (born July 10, 1951) is an American actress. She is best known for playing Phyllis Lapin-Vance in The Office and her voice role as Sadness in the Disney/Pixar movie Inside Out.
Veined tree frog
This animal is large for a tree frog. The adult male is 7.0 to 10.0 cm long from nose to rear end and the adult female is 9.3 to 11.4 cm long. It has thick yellow, gray, or red-brown skin on its back with a large tan or brown mark. It has strong toes with disks on them for climbing. There is a little webbing on the front feet and more webbing on the back feet. The adult male frog has vocal sacs for singing. Unlike other tree frogs, it has green bones and solid color on its sides. But it can have stripes on its legs. This frog hides during the day and looks for food at night. People have seen it high in the tree branches.
This frog lays eggs after big rainstorms. The female lays eggs on the surface of a pond. The tadpoles take 37 to 47 days to become young frogs. The tadpoles have large lungs and large gills. This is because there is not much oxygen in the warm water where they live. They eat algae.
Scientists have seen this frog glide through the air. They call this kind of gliding parachuting. The frog falls in the same direction, with its legs spread out.
This frog makes a sticky white substance in its skin. This substance has chemicals that can cause human beings' skin and eyes to hurt. One of its names "pepper tree frog," comes from the idea that it makes people sneeze, like pepper does. If a snake or other predator tries to eat the frog, it will make this white substance come out of its skin. This will hurt the predator's mouth so the frog can hop away. Because this substance does not dissolve in water, like wax does not, scientists also think it might also stop the frog from drying out and dying.
MOX fuel
Mixed-oxide fuel (or MOX fuel) is nuclear fuel that contains an oxide of more than one element. Most nuclear fuel that is not of the MOX type only contains uranium dioxide. In most cases, the additional oxide will be plutonium dioxide, sometimes thorium dioxide. Any reactor that uses uranium-based fuel will produce plutonium dioxide. Mox fuel consists of about 93% uranium, and about 7% of thorium or plutonium dioxide.

There are perches for the bird to sit on. A cage may be hung from a ceiling or a floor stand. The floor of the cage is usually lined with some sort of paper to absorb the bird's droppings, water spills, etc.
