Saale bridge in hammelburg to be relocated

Saale bridge in hammelburg to be relocated

Eight possibilities where the new saalebrucke could be built had been worked out by the state building authority. But the city councillors mainly chose between two basic variants: a new building on the same site where the bridge stands today (variant 5) and a relocation of the saale crossing flubabwarts next to the current route (variant 7a).

For the preservation of the punishment spoke out reimar gluckler (CBB). Gluckler gave as a reason that variant 5 preserves the visual axis into the weihertorstrabe. He was also able to refer to the opinion of the two city planners petra zeese and hartmut holl. In her letter, which was read out by city architect detlef mohr, zeese spoke of historical path relationships that are important for identity. The special features were optimally staged.

Warning strike paralyzes bus service

Warning strike paralyzes bus service

Today, tuesday, all buses of the stadtwerke bamberg are expected to be at a standstill. Because from 4.30 o’clock the trade union verdi calls for a nationwide warning strike. This is the first major strike in decades over the framework collective agreement for local transport, which is to be regulated more uniformly throughout germany: 30 days of vacation per year, better overtime regulations and better structuring of pay are verdi’s goals. The federal employers’ association has decided to leave this issue to the states to decide, and is currently refusing to talk about it.

"If something isn’t done to improve working conditions, we’ll soon have no more young drivers, unionist dirk schneider, responsible for transport and municipal employers at verdi oberfranken-west, said. 100,000 new drivers will be needed nationwide in the next ten years. In order to deal with the problem of junior staff, the special collective agreement for local transport in bavaria contains further demands that are to be emphasized by the warning strike: a reduction of the working week to 35 hours with full wage compensation, as well as higher bonuses for night and sunday travel and further improvements.

Study on first names shows: “kevin” is half as bad

Study on first names shows: 'kevin' is half as bad

"Our statistics prove that there are many academics who have such stereotypical first names," rodriguez told the weekly newspaper. The scientist had evaluated the names of many former students at the university of leipzig for the study. Among them were 380 peggys, 217 ronnys and 379 mandys alone.

The research was prompted by a number of studies that had attracted attention in recent years. They had shown that primary school teachers, for example, believed that children with names like kevin or mandy were less likely to perform well. Kevin is not a name, but a diagnosis, as one elementary school teacher had written.

“I am always with you”

"I am always with you" – petra irmscher has had these words tattooed on her upper arm together with a portrait of her son. This tattoo – and the story behind it – can be seen at the exhibition "mourning tattoos – our skin as a landscape of feelings", who will play until the 5. April in the foyer of the state vocational school is to be seen.

Grief is always looking for new ways to express itself and these ways evolve with the changing times. So the trend of using our skin as a mirror of our lives is also used to carry our memories of a loved one with us forever – not invisibly in our hearts, but visibly for everyone to see. Based on the illustrated book "mourning tattoos – emotional landscapes an exhibition was conceived and on 22 canvases grieving people tell about their feelings and their motivation to get a "memory tattoo" to have it engraved.

When egloffstein ignited the turbo

50 years ago there was a spirit of optimism in egloffstein. At that time, the municipality repaved numerous roads, plans were underway for a wildlife park in hundshaupten, and the castle concerts celebrated their 20th anniversary.

But before all this could happen, another social event was the center of interest: on 7. January 1970, mayor and county councilman hans daut celebrated his 50th birthday in the hall of the BDK house (sozialwerk bund deutscher kriegsopfer). Birthday. Daut, a member of the town council since 1952, demanded as mayor that egloffstein be qualified as a climatic health resort in 1958. In 1959 egloffstein was also awarded the pradikat "markt" (market) on its own initiative awarded". The road problems were largely solved. "The arlesbrunnenstrabe and the paradiesweg are still missing and will be paved in 1970", daut pledged at the castle meeting.
