At the federal electoral district conference, norbert tessmer, the second mayor of the city of coburg, received 97 votes and thus achieved a result of 100 percent. There were no no votes and no abstentions. Thunderous applause erupted when chairman thomas nowak announced the election results. "It blows me away, it's gigantic! I have never experienced anything like this! This result will give me strength!", tessmer was overwhelmed.

Right from the start, there was a mood of optimism among the guests in the nearly full hall. During his speech, tessmer was repeatedly interrupted by applause. He himself was modest: "it would be self-deception and too much of a mouthful to claim that we are currently in a comfortable starting position!" But there is no time for lamenting the past and lamenting how bad the world is, but the energy must be used for a good result. He wants things to be fairer and more social, and that is what he will fight for!"

Temperament and passion were evident in his voice. Tessmer spoke, among other things, of broken educational biographies that need to be eliminated, of the fight against temporary work, of poverty among the elderly. "I don't want anyone to have to seek shelter in a homeless hostel anymore, and i don't want anyone to have to rummage for food in garbage cans!"

The history of the west pavilion is not a glorious one – at least not in the last few decades: originally erected as a teahouse in the courtyard garden, the building later served as a milk house and finally – at its lowest point – as a toilet facility. It has not been used at all for the last few years. "It was completely run down", hans-heinrich ulmann (CSB), head of the building department, recalled at yesterday's meeting of the building senate. But now, after a year and a half of intensive restoration, the baroque twin of the east pavilion has once again become a piece of jewelry.

330.000 euros, of which 90.000 euros from various demand pots, the city of coburg has invested in the refurbishment. "A lot of money, but also a lot of manual work", emphasized head of the building department ullrich pfuhlmann at the site meeting. Around two-thirds of the work was done by the city itself, explained the head of the land office, bernhard ledermann. The paving around the building, however, was left to the professionals. Speaking of paving – here the city has demonstrated thrift: the stones come from the land of the former coal whorehouse – real recycling, that is.

Mettlach tiles in the floor
However, this did not work so smoothly with the historic mettlach tiles that were found in the floor, as sibylle fugmann from the building authority reported. The state office for the preservation of historical monuments ordered that the tiles had to remain in the floor – under the new floor structure, which is even equipped with electric underfloor heating.

Why the woman in her mid-forties from lichtenfels stole pork neck steaks, she herself could not explain in court. But the fact is that it was repeatedly on trial for theft. "Unreasonable" prosecutor anna saam was to call the defendant 'intransigent' for her behavior over the years.

She was not affected by the house ban

The woman was banned from the lichtenfels supermarket. Nevertheless, she entered it on 15. September this year, and around 13.52 o'clock she wanted to leave him without payment with pork neck steaks worth 8.08 euros. "You already know that you have to give information", judge matthias huber addressed the woman, alluding to her repeated appearances in court. "It was a knee-jerk reaction", said the woman, who did not appear to be in good physical condition. And further she explained: "my friend did not give me any money – we are just short of money at the moment." Then the woman described from her memory his reaction to the event. "My friend called me and said that the police had come to his house. Then he said: 'tell me, did you build a shib??'"

Theft, theft, theft, violation of the narcotics law, then theft again, theft again and so on. Of her total of twelve entries in the federal central register, eight were for theft. Whether this had anything to do with procurement crime was not discussed. However, the woman had a past life that you can see her. "I used crystal for ten years", she declared. Since she was confessed from the beginning, no further witnesses were necessary for this trial. So it came also fast to the pladoyer of prosecutor anna saam. Saam said that the steaks were of little value, but it was also another theft. "They were convicted (for theft) only one month before", so saam under head shake. Precisely because of intransigence, she demanded a four-month prison sentence without probation. Because: "the only time they were not delinquent was the time they were locked away." Also judge matthias huber saw it similarly with the prison sentence. "I don't think that a custodial sentence will make any difference to you either, but there is no way around it…), and the past has shown that they do not endure preservation." He sentenced the woman to three months imprisonment and was at a loss as to her motivation at the time. "Why they have done this, I do not understand."

"Reichsburger and "self-administrator have a strong influx and are in some cases "guilty of the most serious acts of violence" ready, reports the "bild" (tuesday) citing the 2017 report on the protection of the constitution. Meanwhile, some 16.500 people from this scene (2016: 12.800 people).

900 members of the scene are said to be right-wing extremists (2016: 800). The report, which seehofer will present in berlin this tuesday together with the president of the federal office for the protection of the constitution (bfv), hans-georg maaben, has already been available for several weeks. The fact that it is only now being published has to do with the asylum dispute, which recently demanded all of seehofer’s attention.

High number of islamist threat

The number of islamist threats is also currently alarmingly high at around 770. Keeping an eye on all of them is a task that not only challenges the domestic intelligence service. The north rhine-westphalia state criminal police office will get a new department for fighting terrorism at the beginning of next year, which is to deal with the most dangerous islamists in NRW.

"We currently get no lettuce, no fruit and no vegetables in kasendorf", paid for it. She referred to the former edeka store, which was too coarse for a village store, but for whose use other tenants could be found. "The property owner is willing to cooperate. You just had to get together. We could then leave the money in kasendorf and did not have to carry it to the neighboring community. We have a farm store, but it is not always open, but for me a store is only where I can go every day."

Another topic concerns pastor thomas lipfert: "we should think about whether we can build up a district heating supply and choose a type of heating for which the raw material is produced in the region and the value creation remains with us." For the establishment of a regional circuit offered the clergyman said that in addition to the church facilities, the school and the town hall, as well as private properties in this area, could also be connected. "The energy that we currently buy must be obtained partly environmentally harmful. Besides, we should think about how to change our consumption behavior. I experience again and again that we buy things roughly somewhere where they are cheapest." Lipfert also called for more support for the people "who are still doing an honest job here locally".

On the subject of district heating, hans-peter kolb referred to an initial information event that will take place on 20. Marz with the northern bavarian energy agency and the frankenwald energy vision will take place.

Thus surpassing his previous record by one more sausage. His nickname is "jaws" (pine). With 51 hotdogs, second-placed matt stonie lagged far behind the winner. As a reward for the full stomach chestnut received a prize money in the amount of 10 000 dollars and the "mustard yellow international belt".

In the women’s race, 45-year-old sonya thomas claimed her third victory. Korean-born chestnut, nicknamed "black widow," managed 36 and three-quarter hot dogs in ten minutes. Fellow competitor juliet lee was hot on her heels with 36 sausage sandwiches. Last year thomas had set a women’s world record with a sensational 45 hot dogs.

The participants stand next to each other at a long table and, in front of a cheering audience, stuff the sausages and bread into their mouths with both hands. To make it slide more easily, they were also allowed to dip the bread in water and drink something in between.

Although the children of eltingshausen have been playing on their new playground in bayernstrabe since last fall, they have been able to enjoy the new equipment. But it was not until sunday that it was officially inaugurated with a family service in the presence of mayor franz kuhn, local spokesman andreas kukuk and some local residents. More than 11,000 euros had been invested by the association and the community of oerlenbach in the modernization of the playground.

The idea of replacing outdated play equipment was initiated by parents from the toddlers’ group, who were soon joined by other parents. They turned to local spokesman andreas kukuk for help, who, together with the association, collected donations from local companies and private sponsors. Exactly 4600 euro came together at that time. Now it was up to the municipal administration. "There is an agreement that the municipality always contributes the same amount in such cases", explained mayor franz kuhn. "Playground equipment is replaced with new ones from time to time in the entire municipality."

Despite tight budgets, the administration and the town council were once again true to their word. "If the association community has money, then also the municipality has the money", smiled the mayor.
