"Domols hodd der kaiser augustus a verordnung rausgehm, dass sich alle leid in neia steierlist’n eitrogn lossn …" This is how the christmas story of the leupoldsgruner viergesang in the pressecker dreifaltigkeitskirche began. Jochen rank, stefan durrschmidt, christian wunderlich (accordion) and ronald weber (guitar) told them in french and decorated them with all kinds of songs from the world of music.
The quartet’s musical devotion really brought a contemplative and peaceful hour to the presseck house of worship and might have given an idea of how it once was at christmas in the homes of weavers and small farmers.
Before the start of the season, no fan probably had this advent duel in the fubball bundesliga on his or her tip sheet.
As well? FC bayern, the long-time bundesliga dominator, is only in fifth place after 15 matchdays, directly followed by SC freiburg, which is two points behind – this is a real surprise ahead of the duel between the two unequal clubs this wednesday (20.30 o'clock/sky). And the munich fubball stars approach the task in the black forest stadium with some respect. "It's going to be a tough game," predicted coach hansi flick, meaning a tough match.
The cantarella-actives, currently 27 young ladies and eight men, organized the birthday concert completely on their own, selected the songs, arranged rehearsal weekends, arranged for an impressive light technique and prepared a presentation, which ran in the background during the medley of melodies of a decade and the theme song of the 72-hour-action of the BDKJ. It became clear how much friendship has grown in this choir over the past ten years.
A sign of this friendship and enthusiasm for singing is also "cantatett". Ramona hauck, angelina oppelt, sarah scheuring and katharina munch, all four "old hares" of the youth choir, are no longer able to regularly attend weekday rehearsals of cantarella due to training and studies. But of course they still like to sing – and very well too, as they now prove as a quartet. On the anniversary evening they also had two performances with much applause – and the preparation for this concert as choir members they have naturally also timed in their schedule. As "cantatett they inspired among other things with "ex’s and oh’s" or "tears in heaven.
More than 600 citizens blocked the city center for the neo-nazis with their rallies on saturday. The police were on duty with 1000 officers. Nearly 180 right-wing extremists had gathered.

That’s exactly where they belong," said mayor martin wilke (no party affiliation). Police say no arrests made this evening. Except for minor scuffles, it remained peaceful. The officers did not take any action against the blockades.
The dark clouds have cleared: although the bavarian skilled trades sector suffered a slight drop in sales in the first half of 2013, mainly due to the long winter and the associated delays in the construction sector. But things were already looking up in the second half of the year, and the forecasts for 2014 are also glowing. "If the skilled trades can't complain, that means something", says the president of the bavarian crafts council, heinrich traublinger, with a wink in coburg on friday. "If we were to complain now, it would be at a high level!"
The good situation is due to the "concrete gold". Because there is currently a lot of investment in real estate, the mood in the main construction trade is "excellent and the order stocks "comfortably. But in the food sector, too, there was little to complain about, because the burghers were once again attaching importance to regional foodstuffs.
For three decades, the bad kissingen organ cycle has been an integral part of the cultural scene in bad kissingen. Thanks to a first-class organ from the renowned potsdam organ factory schuke, almost any organ literature can be interpreted. What drives city cantor burkhard ascherl to organize an organ cycle again and again??
"When you are on fire for organ music and you have such a beautiful organ, you don’t want to just stop, because there are so many different pieces for organ, and the organ literature is so rich. As an organist you have so many great colleagues who play the pieces differently and also register the organ differently. Besides, it is already, if one can inspire listeners for the organ music."
The catholic and protestant churches and the town of hammelburg made an impressive gesture against forgetting on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the reichspogromnacht.

Mayor armin warmuth (CSU) emphasized in his memorial service "that we must oppose the rise and growth of anti-semitism, racism, right-wing extremism and violence with all our strength and determination – also and especially 80 years later. Also and especially in a world situation in which inhuman, chauvinistic and inflammatory positions are increasingly gaining the upper hand. Also and especially in a time in which right-wing extremist ideas have taken hold in all german state parliaments and in the bundestag".
The gathering to commemorate the persecuted, tortured and murdered victims of the nazi regime makes us aware of the responsibility and the obligation arising from the events of 9/11. November and the "terrible history of national socialism have arisen for all of us. To remember in order to sympathize, to reflect on the past, to think ahead to the present. In order to recall the events of pogrom night, warmuth asked the names of the jewish citizens who were deported at the time to be read aloud. The names are also engraved on a plaque. For this purpose, candles in the form of a star of david were lit.

It is currently difficult to win over craft businesses for an order. The municipality of ahorn also got a taste of it. "We had to put the screed work alone out to tender three times before any company came forward at all", reports mayor martin finzel (party-less). But there is also progress.
In the meantime, a couple has been found who will run the catering business in the leisure center once the renovation work has been completed. Torsten bauer and angelika tetzlaff have run a similarly rough catering business in bad worishofen for the past seven years. Now they're drawn to torsten bauer's hometown.
