Germany has the most developed economy in Europe and is among the leading states in the informational sector around the world. The country is a giant market in view of the fact that it has one of the largest populations in Europe, so if you have a local website, you will be able to reach without troubles tens of millions of Internet users. You will also need a Dot DE domain, and we can provide you with both a Dot DE domain name and a variety of web hosting packages for it. With over 15 million live .DE domains, .DE is the second most famous top-level extension in the world after .COM, which is an illustration of its potential and significance in the online world.
If you fancy to book a .DE domain, you can do so through our company at very cheap prices. We also provide complete domain administration options at no further price – you can edit the WHOIS info, create and modify domain records (A, MX, CNAME, etc.), park your domain, etc., from one single place – our Hepsia Control Panel. There are no terms the Registrant should comply with, so any individual or entity can grab a dot DE domain name. The sole requirement is that the Administrative Contact should be a person/entity with a valid German street address. With our company, your domain can go live within a few hours and you can buy it for a period between 1 and 10 years.
With a dot DE domain, you can start a profitable Germany-oriented web presence and contact millions of people. What is more, the word "de" is also used as a preposition in Spanish, French, Portuguese and other languages, so if you aim at a country that speaks any of these languages, the .DE extension will be an excellent choice if you want to compose a good and alluring domain name. The dot DE TLD supports internationalized domains, so not only the site itself, but also the actual domain can be in the indigenous language and can make use of any character that pertains to the given alphabet.
Happy Web Hosting provides an extremely effective domain management tool that's both user-friendly and fully featured - the Domain Manager. It comes as standard with each new domain name registration and it's the ideal location from where you'll be able to manage your .DE domains. You will get quick access to all DNS and WHOIS settings associated with your domains. You can also assign URL forwarding with just a click and to take full advantage of unlimited domain parking options. The Domain Manager interface offers multiple domain name management options.
If you also have a web hosting account here, managing web sites and domains simultaneously will be more than simple, since the Domain Manager is part of the Web Hosting Control Panel.

A hard rain is going to fall
22 Sep, 2016 by	Victor Davis Hanson
This summer, President Obama was often golfing. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were promising to let the world be. The end of summer seemed sleepy, the world relatively calm.
The summer of 1914 in Europe also seemed quiet. But on July 28, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip with help from his accomplices, fellow Serbian separatists. That isolated act sparked World War I.
In the summer of 1939, most observers thought Adolf Hitler was finally through with his serial bullying. Appeasement supposedly had satiated his once enormous territorial appetites. But on Sept. 1, Nazi Germany unexpectedly invaded Poland and touched off World War II, which consumed some 60 million lives.
Wars often seem to come out of nowhere, as unlikely events ignite long-simmering disputes into global conflagrations.
The instigators often are weaker attackers who foolishly assume that more powerful nations wish peace at any cost, and so will not react to opportunistic aggression.
Unfortunately, our late-summer calm of 2016 has masked a lot of festering tensions that are now coming to a head — largely due to disengagement by a supposedly tired United States.
In contrast, war, unlike individual states, does not sleep.
Russia has been massing troops on its border with Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin apparently believes that Europe is in utter disarray and assumes that President Obama remains most interested in apologizing to foreigners for the past evils of the United States. Putin is wagering that no tired Western power could or would stop his reabsorption of Ukraine — or the Baltic states next. Who in hip Amsterdam cares what happens to faraway Kiev?
Iran swapped American hostages for cash. An Iranian missile narrowly missed a U.S. aircraft carrier not long ago. Iranians hijacked an American boat and buzzed our warships in the Persian Gulf. There are frequent promises from Tehran to destroy either Israel, America or both. So much for the peace dividend of the "Iran deal."
North Korea is more than just delusional. Recent nuclear tests and missile launches toward Japan suggest that North Korean strongman Kim Jong-un actually believes that he could win a war — and thereby gain even larger concessions from the West and from his Asian neighbors.
Radical Islamists likewise seem emboldened to try more attacks on the premise that Western nations will hardly respond with overwhelming power. The past weekend brought pipe bombings in Manhattan and New Jersey as well as a mass stabbing in a Minnesota mall — and American frustration.
Europe and the United States have been bewildered by huge numbers of largely young male migrants from the war-torn Middle East. Political correctness has paralyzed Western leaders from even articulating the threat, much less replying to it.
Instead, the American government appears more concerned with shutting down the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, ensuring that no administration official utters the words "Islamic terror," and issuing warnings to Americans not to lash out due to their supposedly innate prejudices.
Aggressors are also encouraged by vast cutbacks in the U.S. defense budget. The lame-duck Obama presidency, lead-from-behind policies and a culturally and racially divided America reflect voter weariness with overseas commitments.
It would be a mistake to assume that war is impossible because it logically benefits no one, or is outdated in our sophisticated 21st century, or would be insane in a world of nuclear weapons.
Human nature is unchanging and remains irrational. Evil is eternal. Unfortunately, appeasement is often seen by thugs not as magnanimity to be reciprocated but as timidity to be exploited.
Someone soon will have to tell the North Koreans that a stable world order cannot endure its frequent missile launches and nuclear detonations.
Someone could remind Putin that the former Soviet republics have a right to self-determination.
Someone might inform the Chinese that no one can plop down artificial islands and military bases to control commercial sea lanes.
Someone might make it clear to radical Islamic terrorists that there is a limit to Western patience with their chronic bombing, murdering and destruction.
The problem is that there is no other "someone" (especially not the United Nations or the European Union) with the requisite power and authority except the United States. But for a long time America has done more than its fair share of international policing — and its people are tired of costly dragon-slaying abroad.
The result is that at this late date, the tough medicine of restoring long-term deterrence is as almost as dangerous as the disease of continual short-term appeasement.
Obama apparently assumes he can leave office as a peacemaker before his appeased chickens come home to roost in violent fashion. He has assured us that the world has never been calmer and quieter.
Others said the same thing in the last calm summer weeks of 1914 and 1939.
War clouds are gathering. A hard rain is soon going to fall.
