A test drive: georg stirnweib carefully places his gloved hand on the wheel rims of his wheelchair. The new path, which is supposed to provide accessibility in the open-air swimming pool, appears to be steep. Stirnweib gives himself a jolt and rolls slowly down the hill. Then he brakes, turns around and mows his way up the hill again. "For a disabled wheelchair user the slope is no problem", he says. Test passed.

Stirnweib, second chairman of the barrier-free association in the district of erlangen-hochstadt, and manfred muller, commissioner for the disabled, take a close look at the new features in the wave outdoor pool – and are satisfied: "the rolling path that leads directly to the pool and the lift to get into the water have already been solved for wheelchair users", says muller.

Of course, with these grown one must wait until after the ice saints with the distribution in the open air. It is different with the cold lovers. Due to the cold nights and lack of warming of the soil, it is only now that it makes sense to plant cold-loving plants such as parsley, chervil, borage and dill. These will be placed in rows. Chervil has a very fast cultivation time. It is a universal root herb, which is traditionally used especially in soups.

Sowing of robust summer flowers such as gold poppies and marigolds can also begin. Carrots germinate already at a soil temperature of 5 to 7°. The early sowing is intended for the summer harvest. Carrots, which are needed for storage, are sown later. Lettuce, radishes and kohlrabi also want it cool rather than hot. Covering the tree with fleece offers many advantages. The plants are protected from the weather and grow much faster. The fleece is taken off only for hunting and separating. An old method is to put canning jars over lettuce plants on frosty nights. This creates a mini wax house. Lettuce varieties that are intended for the outdoors, such as the time-honored variety maikonigin, do not do well in the greenhouse. It is too warm for them here.

In a trade war with the u.S., europe could be a serious threat to its transatlantic partner, according to economist gabriel felbermayr.

"We still have rough economic power in europe, and we can fight back if we want to," the head of the kiel institute for the world economy said in an interview with the deutsche press agency. It sounds very warlike. "But the threat of retaliation, for example with countervailing duties, is intended in the first step to prevent the actual use of countermeasures."

Corona vaccine maker astrazeneca raked in nearly $300 million with its vaccine in first quarter – but takes lower profit.

In the first three months, global sales of the covid 19 vaccine were around 275 million dollars (226.8 million euros), the british-swedish company announced today in cambridge. Astrazeneca had made it clear from the outset that it would not make a profit during the pandemic with the vaccine, which was developed under the leadership of researchers at oxford university. Core earnings per share, up 55 percent, were now $1.63, down 3 cents because of the pandemic vaccine, the company said.

Minister president horst seehofer as "mad iwan, his challenger christian ude as "dreamboat captain far away, behind the cape of good hope: cabaret artist luise kinseher as "mama bavaria this year, the soldiers gave out a lot at the nockherberg in munich. Hardly any top politicians from munich or berlin get off scot-free in the federal and state election year at the strong beer tapping ceremony.

Kinseher is targeting seehofer in particular – who has arrived from rome directly from his visit to the outgoing pope – during the politician's derbleck. With benedict XVI. The world's most important bavarian resigns". "Then it's over! Then we used to be pope! Then we have only horst seehofer!"

The youth center in hochstadt is currently closed, as are so many social meeting places. But that does not mean that the youth workers are not available for their boys and girls. On wednesday evening, the young people of hochstadt were able to meet with youth worker stephan baierl and mona reinhard and talk about how they are doing at the moment. Online natural. For two hours, people talked and laughed via microphone and camera or danced to their favorite song.

Still laughing together

"This is a test balloon for now", explained baierl, while he took photos for the instagram channel and once again referred to the event. At the inauguration ceremony of the "online pub he had also got himself a (non-alcoholic) beer. The goal was not to talk about corona. Nevertheless, people exchanged views on how their own lives are going during this exceptional situation. How it works in homeschooling also interested the two youth workers.

Italy has taken "a series of measures to reduce the budget deficit in 2019". In fact, a large part of these measures merely postpones the date on which the expansionary fiscal measures will come into force," dombrovskis told journalists on the sidelines of a conference in riga.

The EU commissioner from latvia, who is responsible for the euro, cited the planned burial income and a reduction in the retirement age as examples. As a result, in 2020 could result in a "negative fiscal effect" and a "major problem with the budget", said dombrovskis.

The successful author couple iny klocke and elmar wohlrath (pseudonym iny lorentz), who wrote the bestseller "die wanderhure" (the wandering whore), are the authors of this book has written, was present at the premiere of her piece on the nature stage. When they heard that their novel "die wanderhure" had just been when the concert is played in trebgast, it was clear to both of them: "we want to be there." especially for elmar wohlrath this visit was connected with a special attraction, because he was born in rugendorf, but already at the age of half a year was "deported" to upper bavaria by his parents, as he emphasized. The author couple has published 55 books so far, they usually need three to four months for the written work. But the lead time for the research can sometimes take two years.

The idea for the "wanderhure" they had applied after reading a non-fiction book by author joachim fernau, which was about the council of constance and a whore uprising, among other things. "We were interested in the story, went there, did some on-site research – the riot really happened – and in 2003 the book was published."

Liebhard loffler speaks of a social necessity, of a need that exists for an animal cemetery in bamberg. Loffler is the first chairman of the bamberg animal welfare association, which has almost 2,000 members, and has been campaigning for years to ensure that pet owners in the region do not have to take their four-legged friends all the way to lichtenfels, kissingen or nurnberg when they have to say goodbye to them one day. From bamberg's point of view, this is where the most recent animal cemeteries are located.

"It would suit the city in particular, but also a district municipality, very well to respond to this need of the population", the dentist and animal lover believes. The form of disposal provided for by law was given in walsdorf in the animal disposal facility. But, says loffler, "very few people can do that. People must be given "the opportunity to say a dignified goodbye and a suitable place to commemorate their often long-time fellow resident".

Adelsdorf – with the crime comedy "morderkarussell" by sam bobrick and ron clark: "honestly: were you killed for love?? Because: three is one too many?" series of performances by the french summer theater in adelsdorf comes to an end.

The ensemble, consisting of more than 30 experienced professionals from the fields of acting, cabaret, music, singing, figure theater and theater pedagogy, is "migrating" with the thespis cart to about 70 selected venues – even to adelsdorf and far beyond. Because of corona, of course, only plays were chosen in which the number of actors was very manageable.
