Csu wants tough election campaign with feeling

Csu wants tough election campaign with feeling

He wants to supplement rational election campaign arguments with emotionality, CSU leader horst seehofer said tuesday at the CSU winter meeting in wildbad kreuth. The union must not be a variant of the SPD and the greens, but an alternative. Talks with the CDU about the election campaign strategy have yet to be held. "It would be bad to announce the results of negotiations before they are held," said the CSU leader.

2009, the strategy of ronald pofalla, then CDU secretary general and now head of the chancellor’s office, was based on "asymmetric demobilization" – the SPD voters were to be made less fearful of a black-yellow coalition and thus less motivated to vote. The CSU already had doubts about the "schlaagen election campaign" at that time and subsequently felt confirmed by the unexpectedly poor results of the union – CDU/CSU had only achieved 33.8 percent at that time.

Quiet launch of the iphone 5 in china

Quiet launch of the iphone 5 in china

Apart from the complicated sales process, chinese media and internet users also cited the comparatively high price and unconvincing improvements in design and function as reasons why enthusiasm is low. However, mobile operator china unicom reported that some 300,000 preorders had been placed.

In the difficult chinese smartphone market, apple slipped from fourth to sixth place in the third quarter and is looking to catch up again with the iphone 5. The official launch in china, apple’s second-largest market, came barely three months after the iphone 5’s U.S. Launch. In the rough apple store in the popular peking sanlitun village, however, only a few customers inspected the new iphone in the morning. After the chaos at the sales launch of the iphone 4S, grids had been set up. A dozen police officers, numerous security guards and store clerks were prepared for a stampede, but it didn’t happen.

Do not set off fireworks near coburg’s historic buildings

do not set off fireworks near coburg's historic buildings

Fool’s freedom. The city of coburg’s public order department points this out in a recent press release.
Commercial new year’s eve rockets, firecrackers and bangers ("category 2") are only allowed on 31. December and on 1. January be burned. What many people do not know: only adults are allowed to launch these fireworks corpses.
Fireworks are prohibited in the immediate vicinity of churches, hospitals, children’s homes, old people’s homes and half-timbered houses. It is also important to keep a safe distance from livestock farms, gas stations, barns, stables and all easily flammable substances.
The sky lanterns, which carry their fire risk uncontrolled into the distance, remain generally forbidden on new year’s eve and new year’s day.
The public order office emphatically warns against possible fire hazards caused by fireworks for the many historic coburg buildings such as coburg fortress, ehrenburg castle, the state theater, the natural history museum, the town hall and the town hall on the market square as well as the arsenal in herrngasse. "In their vicinity, all fireworks are to be stopped as a matter of principle!" Says kai holland, head of the city’s public order department.
The police also strongly advise against using fireworks that do not have a permit in germany. In many cases, these untested fireworks have a much higher explosive force that poses a significant risk of injury.

Health risks

However, the health risks for the fireworkers should not be underestimated, even with approved fireworks. Especially under the influence of alcohol the risk of accidents increases again. The range of possible injuries goes from ear damage to burned or torn fingers to severe eye injuries.
Who violates a burn ban, risks a fine under the explosives act, which in extreme cases can be up to 50 000 euros, reads the concluding note of the press release.

Eight years of construction work: this is how the rail expansion is changing the city of bamberg

Eight years of dredging, drilling and concreting along the railroad in bamberg when the railroad begins its new route through bamberg. Six subways, two road bridges have to be rebuilt, many buildings demolished.

What the centennial project means for bamberg, what risks it entails and, despite all the traffic jams and roadblocks, what opportunities it offers, is what we want to shed light on in a new series. The city council already has to decide what the buildings in bamberg should look like.

Traffic jam in front of the registration office causes displeasure

Traffic jam in front of the registration office causes displeasure

Bamberg "how long will it take?", thomas waldschmidt asked himself. He stood in line for three hours in front of the registration office in ludwigstrabe. "An employee then, very relaxed, printed a number in my hand, number 48", says waldschmidt.

57-year-old hirschaider wanted to change his daughter's license plates in early july. He was assured on the phone that the situation was very relaxed and that no appointment was necessary. Then the unpleasant surprise: "turning into the parking lot I have already seen people standing and still thought to myself, aha a demo. The signs that the people were holding were not written signs, but car license plates", says waldschmidt. Since the beginning of the corona crisis, applicants have had to wait standing in front of the authority.

Living in bamberg is becoming more and more popular

living in bamberg is becoming more and more popular

Munich is still the most expensive city in germany for rents and purchase prices, but other regions in bavaria are slowly catching up. In a recent city ranking, in which the development of existing rents between 2007 and 2012 was examined, bamberg came in 6th place with an increase of 26.5 percent. And even finished ahead of munich. In the state capital, however, prices have been at such a high level for some years that the percentage increase is no longer quite so high.

Attractive medium-sized towns in bavaria attract investors
What many bambergers have known for a long time has now been proven by studies: bamberg is attractive and sought after by investors. In the GMA ranking for medium-sized towns and cities, which determined the most interesting locations from a retail point of view, aschaffenburg took first place, but bamberg came in fourth. Rank still in the top 5. This means that two french cities are represented in top positions, which illustrates the high potential of this region and gives investors hope for good future prospects. As far as the housing market is concerned, bamberg has long been regarded as a secure location with good prospects. Here, too, the result for many residents is that rents are rising and living space is becoming increasingly scarce.

Farmers can use fallow land more for fodder crops

According to the amt fur ernahrung, landwirtschaft und forsten (AELF) schweinfurt, the use of fallow land as ecological priority areas (ovf) and other fallow land for forage purposes in livestock farming is permitted as of today, july 1, due to the spring drought, especially in the north of bavaria. July the use of fallow land as ecological priority land (ovf) and other fallow land for forage purposes in livestock farming is permitted. This applies to agricultural land in all of franconia as well as in some other counties in bavaria. For flat outside of bavaria, prior approval of the AELF is required. The authority in schweinfurt is also responsible for the district of habberge and operates a business office in hofheim.

New in 2020, according to the office, is that farmers must informally notify the responsible AELF in advance of the earlier use, naming the affected field pieces, if the forage use of the fallow areas has already been stopped from 1. Up to 15. July. The report can also be made in ibalis via the new message function in the application.

No “handyparking” in kronach

No

Parking with a parking ticket is not always practical: the money must be suitable and you must know exactly how long you want to park. But if it takes longer in the waiting room or when shopping, the anxiety increases. In some other upper franconian cities, therefore, there is the so-called "handyparking. The parking time can be extended by SMS also from on the way.

However, this will not be implemented in kronach for the time being. This was the result of the kronach main committee on monday. City councilor jonas geissler (CSU) had applied for "handyparking for the city.

Kronach auto industry evaluates economic stimulus package

Kronach auto industry evaluates economic stimulus package

Entrepreneurs often do not hold back with criticism of the grand coalition. With the economic stimulus package, this is obviously different – at least for some of the car dealers and automotive suppliers in the region. The general tenor is that the direction of the push is right.

The plant manager of power-cast zitzmann, jens soldner, speaks of "positive incentives for the consumer and his industry, which he associates with the stimulus package. The company is 100 percent an automotive supplier. At the beginning of the corona crisis, when carmakers reduced or shut down production, this also had an impact on the company’s workforce, he recalls. A large part of the workforce was forced into short-time work and thus suffered wage losses. In april, power-cast zitzmann was particularly affected by the corona crisis, with capacity utilization at less than 20 percent.
