Korber does not want to be told what to do

In public discussions, it is either about the super-rich or about hartz IV recipients. The middle class is being punitively neglected, complains federal parliamentary direct candidate sebastian korber (FDP) from forchheim at a political pint at hofmannskeller.

In the current election campaign, merkel and schulz discussed what had gone wrong, although they themselves had had the opportunity to change it. Securing the pension alone would cost a three-digit billion sum. In the eyes of the free democrats, this is an undue burden for the children and grandchildren.

Goodbye publicity: pirates want to be among themselves

Goodbye publicity: pirates want to be among themselves

If the state executive committee of the pirate party in lower saxony has its way, there will be a similar arrangement at this weekend’s party conference: a mixed area in which picture and sound recordings are possible, and a private zone in which the pirates are among themselves. Observers wonder: this is supposed to be the party that stands for rough transparency and publicity?

Sharp criticism comes from the german journalists’ association. State chairman frank rieger criticizes the "zone" as unacceptable. "The question is: why do the pirates behave differently than the established parties??" Says the journalist. Osnabruck political scientist roland czada also shakes his head. "It certainly wasn’t smart."Especially a party that is committed to transparency would do well to practice it itself.

No fear of the second

No fear of the second

In its penultimate home game of the season in the fubball-bayernliga nord, FC sand has a difficult task ahead of it this saturday. SV seligenporten, one of the favorites for the championship, will be the guests at the seestadion. After their relegation from the regional league, they have set their sights on immediate promotion. But even against this top opponent, the sanders, who have also been very successful recently, will try not to go away empty-handed. Match starts at 15 o’clock.
"Big points made the FC sand a week ago with the 2:1 auswartssieg at SV haibach. How the team fought and "plodded" after a 1:0 deficit and with only ten men (florian pickel had received a yellow card after about an hour) has to offer, which not only earned the respect of the trainer duo bernd eigner and matthias bayer. "There was a jolt through the team, and it showed that our team has character. Everyone ran even more and stood in for their teammates when necessary. Thanks to an outstanding performance, our boys managed to turn the game around and take home the three points. This for us very important victory we celebrated afterwards also fundamentally", said eigner.
With now 36 points, the FC sand has created a good position for the direct class preservation. Especially since the specter of a six-point deduction from the games won against FC eintracht bamberg is off the table (see separate article below). Owner says nevertheless: "we will not get involved in anything. We will also be on the gas against SV seligenporten. Especially because we can only be aubenseiter in this game, this spurs us on especially. We will definitely try not to go away empty-handed."
In their current condition, the sander team need not be in awe of any opponent. Of the nine games this year lost the schlereths, pickels wieczorek and co. Only one unhappy with 0:1 against eltersdorf. Funfmal went the "schwarz-weiben" as winners from the pitch, three times with a draw. "This upswing shows that our team has developed enormously. We also want to prove against SV seligenporten that we are now difficult to play against any opponent", eigner explains.

Promotion is the goal

Second-placed SV seligenporten will also be motivated to play at the lakeside stadium. The "klosterer aiming for immediate promotion to the regional league, but still two points behind leaders vfb eichstatt. The team from the upper palatinate is an enormously strong squad, which the sander trainer describes as follows: "seligenporten probably has the best offensive lineup in the league."
There are no changes in the FC sand team compared to the last game. Only dominik rippstein (knee problems) and pascal stahl (torn muscle fibers) are injured. Dominik schmitt resumed running practice after bruising his toe. The rest of the squad is available to coach bernd eigner. With 18 points from the last nine games, FC sand’s chance of staying in the league has increased. But this also means that he will certainly not be underestimated by the second-placed team in the table.
FC sand: biemer, mai – azizou, gundelsheimer, gonnert, karmann, kruger, leim, F. Pickle, J. Pickel, ribeiro, rinbergas,
D. Schlereth, th. Schlereth,
A. Schmitt, D. Schmitt (?), carver, tropper, wieczorek, wirth

The move was a stroke of luck for the police in bad kissingen

The move was a stroke of luck for the police in Bad Kissingen

When the police officers of bad kissingen cleared out their desks in november 1995 and moved into the new office building in the former U.S. Barracks, there was not much nostalgia involved. It was easy to say goodbye, because the old building on the corner of erhardstrabe and landwehrstrabe was not only very cramped, but also in a structurally desolate condition. And so the police officers at that time were happy to finally receive more contemporary working conditions. Today, 25 years later, the head of the bad kissingen police department, stefan haschke, speaks of the forward-looking decision not to renovate the police building in the city, but to move it to the former barracks.

Bursting at the seams

Stefan haschke remembers the old police station building well from his time as a young police officer in the 1980s. The roof was leaking. "The roof trusses began to rot", it was also stated in a newspaper report in the saale newspaper in november 1995, shortly before the move to the new office building. The technology was from the old days "the wind whistles through the window cracks" wrote the newspaper at that time.

Geroda: rough visions for geroda

Geroda: rough visions for geroda

It hurts mayor alexander schneider (UWG) that the long-planned jubilee could not take place this summer. He announced at the time that it was going to be a big hit. For the gregarious 32-year-old, the past six months have been a difficult time. The regular droohteseldour, the fire department festival or the village jubilee, all had to be cancelled. "Time just goes by, it’s strange", says schneider thoughtfully.

Now the late summer is coming to an end. The district of geroda lies all the more idyllically in the valley, only a few meters away from the black mountains – an eldorado for athletes and nature lovers alike. This picture of his hometown makes the mayor euphoric. "I am a positive thinker and I want to make a difference in the community", he says.

Commentary: a question of perspective

Commentary: a question of perspective

There are two ways of looking at the relocation of the cycle track. One is the urban development perspective: it makes sense to think now about the parking spaces of tomorrow. There is no drama in the fact that the cycle path and the road run parallel for a short distance. Many bike paths border directly on dense road traffic. Even for children it’s no problem, because they learn the rules of the road at school.

The second view, however, is a different one: a brand-new cycle path is being planned that will lead through beautiful landscapes and is intended to be a showpiece of tourism marketing – and it certainly has the potential to be so. The fact that the path at the height of the old train station leaves the original course on the railroad line is not only bearable, but even sensible. The relocation to the bypass road was simply nonsense. The value of the new cycle path for the region has been lost from view. It is understandable that some citizens can only shake their heads at this. And it speaks for the cohesion of the rhonallianz that the other mayors along the route were not openly surprised about the solo effort of bad bruckenau.

For safety and gentleness

For safety and gentleness

Twelve meters above the nave of the church, the wooden boards creak as the specialist group of the state building authority invites the press to a meeting. Since the beginning of the year, the dombauhutte has been busy renovating the imperial cathedral and checking its safety on behalf of the state of bavaria.

"It’s a challenging project because we have to work while the plant is in operation", explains ulrich forst. A compromise to not completely deny people access. The head of the cathedral building department is in charge of various sections in the venerable house of god. That means cleaning the ceilings, gouging cracks and cleaning window ledges.

Crisis at manchester united - mourinho rants

His bizarre appearance at the press conference lasted only a few minutes, then jose mourinho had had enough.

"Three times premier league, i’ve won more premier league titles than the other 19 coaches put together." That mourinho dunnhautig recalled his earlier successes shows how frustrated the once celebrated as "the special one" coach currently is.
