Architect georg boswald-von brunn is satisfied with the progress of the work – even if there have been some delays due to corona. A large part of the damage to the windows has already been repaired; in the future, the condensation running off inside will be drained off via a "condensation gutter" that is invisible from the outside. Several streaks had formed on the natural sandstones.
Faced with powerful wage increases, consumers in germany are increasingly indulging in a little luxury when it comes to food and drink. Edeka, rewe and co in particular benefit from this.
According to a study by the gesellschaft fur konsumforschung (gfk), the sales of supermarket chains increased twice as much as those of discounters in 2018.

For the generation of our grandparents, it was a matter of course that the harvest from the garden was preserved for the cold season. Preserving and canning were the order of the day in summer and autumn. A community of six families in hannberg has been back to it for about 15 years and preserves cucumbers for consumption in the current year.
This action started rather small, with the cucumbers from the own garden. But very quickly the action took on more extensive forms, so that additional purchases had to be made. Rough value put the active on the fact that only components from the region are used.
With the second lockdown, new mabtests were introduced to break the corona infection chains. These include, among other things, the minimization of contacts in the private and public spheres. But to what extent do these rules apply when driving a car?? 1. Contact restrictions as a matter of principle, only meetings with members of one’s own and another household are currently permitted. This rule also applies to driving. Nevertheless, the ADAC nordbayern recommends that car trips with people from outside the household should be avoided if possible. This is mainly due to the fact that the minimum distance of 1.5 meters in the car can often not be maintained. 2. Carpooling is still possible, but only subject to the above-mentioned restrictions. This means that a maximum of two different households are allowed to drive together in one car. According to the bavarian ministry of the interior, exceptions to this rule only apply to necessary professional activities in which the cooperation of several persons is absolutely necessary.
The passenger should sit on the right rear bench seat and all vehicle occupants should wear a mask and the interior of the vehicle should be ventilated more frequently. 3. Mask in the car wearing a mask in the car is not forbidden and is even recommended in the case of passengers from outside the household. However, those who wear mouth-nose protection while driving must ensure that their facial features remain recognizable.
"We tolerated a lot: the smell, the background noise – but you still have to be able to sleep.", says karin reibenweber, a resident in kaulangerstrabe. And harald beetz, owner of the kronach pizza service, shakes his head and says: "we try to keep the noise down, and it only makes things more difficult for us."
But from the very beginning: since may, there has been a vending machine in front of the kronach pizza service in kaulangerstrabe from which you can get a pizza at any time of the day or night. Beating car doors, hooting car radios, laughing and booing – that's what residents like karin reibenweber have been complaining about ever since. "In august, the mayor and representatives of the city administration approached me and asked me to look for a solution to the larvae complaints," says karin reibenweber, beetz remembers and adds: "we have found them too." He had asked his tenant in the neighboring house to move out in order to relocate the pizza and other vending machines to the interior.
The sound of hip hop lets its bass crack at the grunen markt. A good 50 people, many of them so-called people of color, i.E. People who do not have a female skin color, stand at the gabelmann on the weekend and listen to the speeches: "it’s not about having individual rotten apples, it’s about having a diseased tree", activist lea – herself part of the black community – draws a comparison with the social situation in the federal republic of germany. She talks about german colonial history and how racism was used to justify paternalism in the colonies. Going back in history, it is not enough to deal with the nazi past: "kant has truncated the theory of different races of man and is still celebrated", lea criticizes.
As early as may, as many as 500 people had gathered on maxplatz to demonstrate against structural racism and police violence – the high point of the black lives matter movement after the black us citizen georg floyd died as a result of a racist police stop. Once again, the fates of breonna taylor and jacob blake bring people to the streets with their anger and grief. Lea already spoke at the rally and also now: "black lives matter is not only a topic of the united states."
In a telephone conversation with CDU secretary general annegret kramp-karrenbauer, he told her where he saw himself in the event of a rift between the CDU and CSU, the lower saxony state politician told the deutsche presse agency. "When it comes to separation, talk to one of the first CSU members in lower saxony."The "braunschweiger zeitung" had previously reported on the cleanup of oesterhelweg.
Within the lower saxony CDU, there is a growing number of members who are turning their heads over the actions of chancellor angela merkel on the refugee issue, said oesterhelweg, who is head of the CDU state association in brunswick. "At some point, you have to say: this won’t work with a european solution, we have to take the initiative as a country ourselves."
The operating vacations for the insolvent bowling center in kissingen have been significantly extended. But this does not mean anything negative for the prospects of the property. The indication given at the beginning of the month by insolvency administrator markus schadler that for the previous owner of the property, the KBC – kissinger bowling center gmbh "probably masseunzulanglichkeit exists", has briefly startled. On inquiry of this editorship schadler calmed on tuesday however. Insolvency only means that if liabilities to the estate have now been claimed, they could not be serviced. After a sale of the object, the situation would be quite different again.
Schadler even assumes "that we can sell relatively quickly". He had already reported two weeks ago that there were various interested parties for the property, which was only opened in 2015. Currently, however, the bowling center has everything but season, said schadler on tuesday. When the object was opened anyway, the income was not even enough to cover the fixed costs. "Therefore", according to schadler "we have significantly extended the operating vacations".
Mass insufficiency does not have as far-reaching an effect as mass poverty. In case of mass poverty, the remaining values are not even enough to cover the costs of proceedings. Inadmissibility of insolvency proceedings occurs, however, when the available assets are sufficient to support the proceedings, but are not sufficient to cover the liabilities of the insolvency proceedings. According to the online encyclopedia wikipedia, liabilities to the masses are liabilities that are serviced in full from the assets in the event of insolvency before other liabilities. In most cases, these are "liabilities that arose after the insolvency occurred".
As already reported, the schweinfurt district court received several applications from creditors for the opening of insolvency proceedings. Affected were 16 employed. Four to five of them were employed full-time, the rest part-time or with mini-jobs.
A quarter of a century or more with the same company – that’s quite a feat these days.

"I have been with raps all my professional life, adalbert raps and horst kuhne personally hired me", says ingrid dembowski, who completed her training as an industrial clerk in 1971 and has now been working in the human resources department for 30 years. At the beginning of the 1970s, 180 skilled workers were employed at raps. A time that the jubilarian still remembers well: "adalbert raps was a real family businessman, at festivals he was always to be found in the middle of the staff. I also remember his enthusiasm for technical innovations. If there was a new piece of equipment, he bought it immediately. That’s why we were one of the first companies to have a teleprinter."
