No matter whether the katzenbach theater group, who performed as moles, "this is our ball" or not, or the BSC lauter, which, as a direct neighbor of the newly created traffic circle, glossed it with three groups, almost always the one currently "decorated" with three crosses kreiselberg in the focus of local groups.

The katzemicher dance group "the koalis noticed that the traffic circle was still missing some color, but the "kreiselgartnerei" (alex fehr and family) (alex fehr and family) liked to change. However, it is questionable whether the BSC players from the city of lauter will like this, as they see the traffic circle as their fourth sports ground. Still others not only acted as traffic circle builders, but also founded a traffic circle management team, complete with traffic circle trash can and traffic circle politician, in view of the new traffic obstacle’s grossness. Others, on the other hand, find the whole traffic circle too fast and prefer to go for a ride. But, among the 33 fub- and wagengroups there were not only locals, but also several groups from stralsbach, waldfenster, oehrberg, stangenroth and even hausen and most of them could admire the lauter traffic circle in nature on their way home. To "pull" him, as on one of the floats currently three crosses, one of which, however, already had to bow to the weather. The march of the costumed groups lasted a good hour, and the gaudiwurm ended in katzenbach at the local musicians’ home.

square gets new design

Some time ago, the poxdorf community council decided to demolish the old, dilapidated mortuary in the middle of the cemetery, close to the church, and to commission a new blessing hall. This will be built on an approximately 25 meter wide strip of the parking lot behind the cemetery, around which the cemetery will be grouted.

Elke dohler from the office of landscape architects ammermann-dohler (bamberg) explained to the council in which way the cemetery could be redesigned. "Small changes can have a big impact", she said, stressing that she has tried to develop a plan that suits the place and to use only materials from the region.

Wall not too high

The partially covered square in front of the new, discreetly modern blessing hall is to be separated from the parking lot by a wall that is not too high, so that the surrounding landscape can be taken into view. The site created by the demolition of the old mortuary is to become a resting place for cemetery visitors, furnished with benches and trees.

Different types of burial will be possible: there will be conventional graves and urn graves, but also more anonymous lawn graves in an area maintained by the community.

The part of the cemetery downstream from the hall for the blessing of the dead is enclosed by a hedge of pruned leaves concealing a wire mesh fence. The replacement of the entire sandstone wall surrounding the original part of the cemetery would be very costly. Therefore, only the wall bordering the cemetery in the east will be restored at first. It is dilapidated because it consists of bricks under the sandstone cover.

A "water-bound surface" is to be laid on the main path leading from the parking lot and the consecration hall to the church and on the most important cross paths made from a solid natural stone mixture. It can be easily repaired in case of subsidence, does not muddy in bad weather, is environmentally friendly and also inexpensive. Several councillors were opposed to this paving and thought that at least the old paving of the main path should be preserved. While the redesign plan (costing 165,000 euros) was unanimously approved, elke dohler was asked to come up with new ideas for surfacing the various paths by the next meeting at the end of september.

How high is the risk of coronavirus spread??

Hopes of keeping the lung disease out of germany have faded after new evidence of infection with the sars-cov-2 coronavirus emerged. What is being done to limit the spread and what is known about the virus and the disease??

How high is the risk of further spread in germany?

According to the robert koch institute (RKI), a further importation of traps into germany must be expected. Further transmission of sars-cov-2, chains of infection and outbreaks in the country are also possible. Local infections could initially remain undetected, said the vice president of the robert koch institute (RKI), lars schaade, on RBB on wednesday. It is "quite possible that we will not be able to detect all of these outbreaks immediately.". It must be expected that this will lead to further spread. Experts currently rate the risk to the health of the population in germany as low to moderate.

What would a major outbreak in germany mean for the healthcare system??

A wave of infection in this country could mean, among other things, full waiting areas and doctors’ surgeries, occupied intensive care beds and completely overburdened health authorities, the berlin virologist christian drosten had recently explained. Experts see it as a problem that the annual wave of influenza is currently rolling through germany – and is already placing a heavy strain on the healthcare system. For this reason, the goal is to delay the spread of the coronavirus as much as possible, as the robert koch institute (RKI) recently explained. "We have to try with appropriate auand to slow down the spread to mitigate an intense stress pulse on the health care system," drosten said. "The number of infections should be extended over as long a period of time as possible."

How contagious is the new coronavirus?

It is still not possible to state with certainty how many other people an infected person infects on average. The virus spreads through droplet infection, for example when coughing and talking. Initial results indicate that the virus can also be spread through the digestive system and, for at least a few days, through surfaces. A previously underestimated risk is that "quite relevant amounts" of sars-cov-2 can be detected in stool samples from patients in the initial phase of a covid-19 disease, explained clemens wendtner, head of infectious and tropical medicine at the munich hospital in schwabing, germany.

How dangerous is the virus?

This is still a difficult question. There is currently not enough data to make a conclusive assessment of the severity of the new respiratory disease, says the RKI. According to a recent analysis by china’s health department, 2.3 percent of those infected with sars-cov-2 die in the country. The most affected are elderly people and those with serious pre-existing conditions such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In people over 80 years of age, the death rate calculated from the data available there is just under 15 percent, i.E. An average of around 15 out of every 100 infected people die in this age group in china. In the group of people aged 10 to 39 years, 0.2 percent of infected people die, i.E., about 2 out of every 1,000 people affected.

Experts believe that the mortality rate is actually lower than calculated in china, partly because many mild infections are not recorded in chinese statistics. However, there are no reliable analyses of mortality from other countries to date.

What symptoms does the new coronavirus cause??

Most people have only mild cold symptoms with colds and sore throats or no symptoms at all. In addition, there may be fever, cough and respiratory problems, as they also occur with influenza. Headaches and diarrhea are also possible.

According to the chinese health authorities, more than 80 percent of those infected have a mild course of infection, while just under 14 percent become severely ill. Life-threatening effects such as respiratory arrest, septic shock or multiple organ failure occur in just under five percent of cases.

The incubation period – the time between infection and the onset of symptoms – is currently between 2 and 14 days. This is the reason that suspected cases are isolated for two weeks.

How can the new respiratory disease be treated??

There is no specific treatment for the disease covid-19. Severely ill patients are treated symptomatically: with antipyretics, treatment of any additional bacterial infections and sometimes mechanical ventilation. Antiviral drugs are also being tested in isolated cases.

Is there a protective vaccination?

No. Many laboratories around the world are currently researching vaccines like those for influenza. But the development of a vaccine takes a long time. WHO scientist soumya swaminathan believes initial vaccine testing in humans could begin in three to four months. But a certified vaccine for widespread use is not expected to be available for another 18 months.

The US biotech company moderna reported on monday that it had developed a vaccine candidate and delivered it to the US national institute of allergy and infectious diseases (NIAID). Its director, anthony fauci, announced initial clinical trials in late april, according to CNN. He also expected that it would take one to one and a half years before a vaccine would be available.

How else can I protect myself from infection??

To protect against this and other viruses, experts recommend the usual hygiene measures: regular hand washing, use of disinfectants and keeping a safe distance from sick people. Experts estimate that the use of normal breathing masks – as currently seen on the streets of china and other countries – is rather low. It can help to limit hugging and handshaking and to avoid touching surfaces that are touched by many people, such as door handles, grab bars and elevator buttons.

Can I get infected if I receive a package from china or other risk areas??

In principle, it is unclear how long the virus survives on surfaces, says the world health organization (WHO). Studies suggest that it may take a few hours or days, depending on conditions such as surface, temperature, or humidity. The probability that an infected were contaminated with the virus, the authorities classify as low. The risk of a recipient contracting an infection from a package that is exposed to different conditions and temperatures during transport is also low, she says.

Imported foodstuffs and goods such as toys, computers and clothing are also unlikely to be sources of infection, says the federal institute for risk assessment. Experts stress the importance of following general hygiene rules, such as washing hands regularly.

What do I do if I fear I have contracted the disease??

According to the RKI, anyone who has had contact with an infected person should first report to his or her health office, regardless of whether or not symptoms have occurred. Travelers from risk areas who have symptoms should consult a doctor after calling ahead and mentioning the trip.

What is the state allowed to do in case of emergency?

The essentials are regulated by the infection protection act (ifsg), which is valid throughout germany. A spokesman for the bavarian ministry of health summarizes: "if necessary, important fundamental rights such as freedom of the person, freedom of assembly or inviolability of the home, as well as the right to physical integrity, can also be restricted."According to bavarian constitutional law expert stephan rixen, authorities are allowed to demand blood samples and swabs of skin and mucous membranes. Even "suspected of illness" and "suspected of contagion" – as the law puts it – can be banned from the profession. For the protection of others, people could also be "segregated in a suitable hospital or otherwise appropriate manner," the law states.

Inflation in the euro zone falls more sharply than expected

Inflation in the euro zone fell even more than expected in april. As the eurostat statistics office announced in luxembourg on wednesday, consumer prices were 0.3 percent higher than a year earlier.

In march, the inflation rate had been 0.7 percent. In an initial estimate, an increase of 0.4 percent had been determined. Economists had expected the first estimate to be confirmed. Cost of living increased by 0.3 percent month-on-month.

More favorable than in the same month of the previous year was mainly energy, for which 9.7 percent less had to be paid. Significantly more expensive, on the other hand, food. Prices of unprocessed food rose by an average of 7.6 percent compared to the same month last year. By contrast, the increase in the price of services and industrial goods was much weaker. Core inflation excluding energy and food was 0.9 percent.

Inflation is thus well below the european central bank’s (ECB) target of just under two percent in the medium term. Experts expect it to weaken further in the coming months due to the severe recession. However, the recent recovery in raw material prices was slightly disconcerting.

Youth parliament for the city?

Bad staffelstein recently proved that cooperation between young people and the city authorities can bear fruit with the rebuilding of the skate park. In order to write more success stories like this, the city’s youth representative, holger then, has submitted an application to the mayor and the city council for the adoption of a statute for the realization of a youth parliament in bad staffelstein.

The purpose of such a parliament is to represent the interests of the youth in the city of bad staffelstein and thus to establish an instrument that gives a voice to those not yet entitled to vote. "The distance between the youth and the city council is unfortunately often too rough. A youth parliament can help here", says then. The application has already been submitted to the city council and will be discussed at an upcoming meeting.

Tasks and rights

The youth parliament shall consist of ten members who have not reached the age of 14 at the time of election. Have reached the age of 18 and have not yet reached the age of 18. The parliament may then, in at least four meetings per year, draft motions and recommendations to be submitted to the city council. This must address the issues within three months. In addition, the youth parliament is to be given its own budget. Currently the sum of 500 euro is in the room for this budget.

Who is allowed in the youth parliament?

Young people who are at least 14 but not yet 18 years old and whose main place of residence is in bad staffelstein may stand for election and thus be candidates for the youth parliament. A written application is required, including information on education, main interests and motivation for the candidacy. All other youths who meet the same requirements are eligible to vote. The type of election has not yet been determined – conceivable is a polling station determined by burgermeister jurgen kohmann (CSU) or a brieahl.

Youth representative is a binding member

Holger then, in his function as youth representative and city councilor, is the link between the youth parliament and the mayor and city council. He will also coordinate at least the first meeting of the parliament – whether his help will still be needed after that will then be in the hands of the youth parliament. With the introduction of such a parliament then hopes for a "better networking of the existing structures of youth work."

Decision lies with the city council

But it remains to be seen whether this will actually happen. For first, the city council must vote on whether to accept the motion of then. Only then the way would be paved for the candidate search and the following election. According to the youth representative, the chances of this happening are not bad. "The enactment of the statute does not hurt anyone", says then and adds: "my desired start date is autumn 2018."

After the separation: who gets to keep the common dog??

A woman from stuttgart demands from her ex-husband the return of the common dog. The couple has been separated since 2016. In the past two years, the dog lived with the husband. Now the stuttgart court has made a decision: the divorced woman is not allowed to force her to hand over the dog.

Pets are considered property according to civil code

Generally, a divorce is a very emotionally charged matter. However, if the household is divided during the official execution of the divorce, this can become a major issue of dispute between the two parties.

According to article 1361a of the civil code, a dog, just like all other jointly acquired objects during the marriage, such as household goods, furniture or the car, is part of the common household goods. This is to be divided between the spouses in the divorce approximately equally.

Welfare of the animal is not in the foreground

In contrast to the common children, the well-being of the animal is not in the foreground in the case of a divorce, since the animal is only part of the common household goods. This means that it is not important for the decision where the pet should live, with which spouse it would supposedly be in better hands.

In the current case of a divorced woman from stuttgart, who wanted to force her ex-partner to hand over the labrador dog they had bought together before the marriage, the court decided that she was not entitled to the dog.

Although the woman is said to have cared for the dog like a child, the only decisive factor is that her ex-husband is noted as the sole owner of the dog in the surrender contract of the animal aid society.

Some time ago there was a similar ruling in oldenburg – but with a different outcome: after divorce: who gets custody of the dog??

Who is legally entitled to the pet??

If a spouse can prove that the animal is in his or her general ownership, it is not to be included in the household list, which is later divided between the parties.

A proof of general property is provided if a partner has already brought the pet into the marriage. Furthermore, a spouse can claim the pet if he or she can prove that he or she was the sole caretaker of the pet before the separation and divorce.

There is no right of access

Of course, the parties can agree on a private right of access. However, this has no legal existence.

In the same way, the person who continues to care for the common dog does not have the right to claim maintenance from the ex-partner.

If the parties do not agree privately on the remaining pet, impartial courts can make an appropriate decision on the division of the household goods.

On good friday, michael mensinger, as manager of the "freizeit-land geiselwind", wanted to visit the park as in the past years, the starting signal for the new season was given again. In view of the early easter date this year, however, he was already concerned in advance whether the weather would be suitable for a visit to the leisure country at least for a few days.

But he had not expected it to be so bad with snow, frost and ice on the small ponds in the countryside.
"We had to postpone the start of the event to easter monday, 1. April, postpone", michael mensinger explained in a conversation with our editorial team.

There are several reasons for this: some animals have not yet been able to move into their enclosures because of the cold, and there are also technical problems with some of the rides, mensinger noted. The flamingos are already eagerly waiting in their winter quarters to be able to be outdoors again, but their pond is freezing over and so they could not be fed either. At temperatures below zero, mensinger cannot operate the roller coaster either.

The cleaning and maintenance work, in which 40 people are currently involved in the 40-hectare park, is also running under difficult conditions this year.
The ice had to be removed from some of the water basins with great effort so that they could be resealed and painted. A lot of work is involved in cleaning and especially in removing the many leaves; because the leisure land is overgrown with many trees and thus actually has a real park character.

In the dinosaur house, daniel huscher from kitzingen, who is working in the leisure land for the first time, is installing new pumps and lighting fixtures. The acrobatic artists are also busy with electronics in their tent. Animal caretakers martin wursching and birgit scheuring performed a special task a few days before the opening: they ringed eight storks with colorful rings. "If one of them runs away, we can quickly bring the stork back to its appropriate enclosure to its patner", explained martin wursching.

But not only the 40 employees of the leisure land were busy on good friday with the most diverse work (during the season 80 people work in the leisure land) the eight women of the association for local conservation and horticulture geiselwind decorated the easter fountain. After the words of the 2. According to renate mahr, the association has been carrying out this work for over ten years, as they have a very good relationship with michael mensinger. Edith gegner, marianne wittmann, andrea lohmann, christa durr, irmgard mahr, anneliese glaser and christa mahr took part in the event. "As a thank you there is coffee and cake and hopefully also a free ride in the roller coaster", said anneliese glaser laughing.

While some of the animals are still in their winter quarters, waiting for the first day out, some of them are already ready to welcome visitors. A peacock showed itself in a great pose, and there are already offspring among the goats. Most of the kids are born in may, according to mensinger. The chickens also brave the cold, but try again and again to catch the one or other ray of sunshine for the auarmen. No problems with the cold have the monkeys, because they grow a thicker coat in winter. The swans are not happy with the weather, because their waters are still mostly frozen over.

The geiselwind leisure park has around 500 animals. The animals were the main attraction when the park was opened in 1969. Even today, the many four-legged friends and the lively animals are the unique selling point of the recreational area in geiselwind. Michael mensinger is visibly proud. The many trees with ponds and streams also provided a good contrast to the many technical features of the rides.

This year, the season is themed "let yourself be inspired". Michael mensinger reveals that many smaller and coarser ghosts will be on display in the leisure land. Every year, his company conducts a survey to find out what the motto of the next season should be, and last year the clear vote was "ghosts" please. In a coarse ghost train, therefore, not only electric dolls will be up to mischief as a special attraction. Michael mensinger has hired real actors who can really get on the visitors' nerves. "But we don't want to present gory ghosts, because we don't want to scare the little children", michael mensinger emphasized during the tour. Under the motto "ghosts there will also be a ghost hunt (ghosthunter) as a new entertainment offer with fast-paced acrobatics and great comedy. In the 4D cinema, it's up close and personal to elvira, the princess of darkness. "Pure excitement, mensinger comments.

He himself is always enthusiastic about his leisure country. "It's a great job to be able to work here", he explained in an interview, even though the working hours are eleven hours a day, six days a week, during the season. He takes one day a week off from work. He is fascinated by nature, the varied work and the many people he comes into contact with. He hopes that there will be many visitors again this year.

Record after the turnaround
In 2012 there were 300.000 guests. The record is half a million, when a large number of visitors came from eastern germany after the fall of the wall. Mensinger likes to visit other amusement parks. He knows all of the 30 or so in germany from his own visits, and he hasn't missed any in europe either. He was almost bowled over by the recreational facilities in the U.S. But what he likes best is the leisure land in geiselwind – his personal home with all the animals, artists, helpers and local associations.

Drunk driver flees from the police

In pommelsbrunn (nurnberger land), the 43-year-old driver of a VW was to be subjected to a traffic control at around 0:45 a.M. He reacted to the officers’ signals to stop only by increasing his speed and racing through various towns and villages, sometimes at over 140 km/h. After passing through a town, he continued on a country lane and continued to try to escape. Before a right turn there was a collision between the car and the patrol car. On the slippery ground, the two vehicles started to roll and finally came to a halt in a meadow.

Without offering any resistance, the accused finally allowed himself to be arrested. The reason for his escape was quickly found when the test on the breathalyzer showed a value above the absolute limit for driving (over 1.1 per mille). In addition, the police found a one-handed knife on the man. He now has to answer for suspicion of endangering traffic and a misdemeanor under the weapons law.

On the tracks of robin hood

The dornig-schutzen of the kultur- und freizeitfreunde bad staffelstein organized together with the shooting school vorderegger from salzburg/ austria a two-day, advanced seminar for skilled archers. 14 participants from upper franconia, lower franconia, middle franconia, hesse and thuringia accepted the invitation of bernd freisleben and karin and dietmar vorderegger.

The theoretical part took place in the seminar room of the association’s own "haus am dornig" instead of. For the practical exercises the insertion range as well as the dornig-schutzen-parcours with 28 launches and more than 55 3D-targets were available.

The morning of the first day began with a round of introductions and a questionnaire on the aims and expectations of the participants. This was followed by the first practical part with video recording of the shooting technique of each shooter. Anchor and loose technique were checked, suggestions for improvement and correction were made and then practiced with closed and open eyes and the techniques were rehearsed. Some participants were amazed by the new anchor technique. Aiming accuracy and lateral deviations improved significantly after just a few practice sessions.

Different aiming techniques

Following this, the target technique was on the agenda. The course started with the determination of the personal shooting range of each participant. In addition, various aiming techniques were suggested for shooting situations and practiced by the participants at various distances up to a maximum of 54 meters.

The second day was dedicated to shooting techniques. The experiences from the previous day on shooting and aiming techniques were now applied in the field at different distances as well as in uphill and mountain shots. During the theoretical part, various shots were compared with a computer program, analyzed and then tested in practice.

At the final round, all participants agreed that they had been able to develop themselves further through this seminar and that further training of what they had learned should also lead to success at the next tournaments and course visits. All participants received a certificate of successful participation.

The two trainers thanked the participants for their excellent cooperation, the dornig-schutzen for the organization and ideal conditions with seminar room and course, and the leaseholders barbel niemann and helmut breitenbach for the excellent culinary support.
