New route proposals: marktgraitz councillors disappointed

New route proposals: Marktgraitz councillors disappointed

Once again, the municipal councils voted unanimously against all possible power lines.
The reason for the renewed discussion was the confirmation of the grid development plan for electricity 2030 by the federal network agency. All previously known variants of the P44 and the P44 mod were confirmed in it. For the P44 project, including the originally proposed alternative, the following alternatives are now confirmed: P44: altenfeld to grafenrheinfeld, P44 mod: altenfeld past redwitz via wurgau to ludersheim, P44 mod variant 2: altenfeld via remptendorf past redwitz via wurgau to ludersheim, P44 mod variant 2+: remptendorf past redwitz via wurgau to ludersheim, P44 mod variant 3: altenfeld via remptendorf past redwitz to mechlenreuth, P44 mod variant 4: altenfeld via schalkau past redwitz to mechlenreuth. The p44 mod and the p44 mod variant 4 even mean a further upgrade of the just completed 380 kv line from the bavaria/thuringia state border to the redwitz substation.
This resulted in either the erection of higher masts or a new line running parallel to the current route. "Here, unfortunately, one lacks the imagination", derived 2. Burgermeister georg bulling (CSU). Apparently, the federal network agency wants to leave the decision on the various options to the politicians. "We are against these routes", the local councillors once again gave vent to their displeasure on this issue.
The other variants also went directly past mannsgereuth, marktgraitz and redwitz. Only the first possibility might be feasible. The committee agreed that it is important to be vigilant so that one can react and not be presented with a fait accompli.

Mai thi nguyen-kim: what makes the woman from mailab tick?

Mai thi nguyen-kim: what makes the woman from mailab tick?

Does mai thi nguyen-kim, the successful scientist, also have an irrational side?? Fear of black cats? Friday the 13th.? She must laugh. "Now i had to think about it," she says. "I am not superstitious at all. I am also not religious. I don’t even play the lottery, I think that’s silly."Her conclusion: "i am a very rational person. But i for example never said that believe is nonsense. I like to get involved in philosophical discussions. Or I don’t think we will ever fully understand something like love. And that’s okay too."

In person, mai thi nguyen-kim comes across differently than in her videos on mailab. On youtube she is very straight, very focused. She has to produce a lot of ruber in a short period of time. But when you talk to her, there are pauses for thought, she even makes a face. Above all, however, she always breaks out in a contagious laughter. For example, when she says that she never really thought the mouth-nose protection was that bad: "at least you don’t have to wear makeup."

Herzogenaurach pilgrimage to veitsbronn

The shortest pilgrimage of the herzogenaurach catholics took place again this year on ascension day to veitsbronn. The unusual thing is that a protestant church is the destination of a catholic pilgrimage.
This pilgrimage has a long tradition. Because veitsbronn originally belonged to the parish of herzogenaurach and only adopted the protestant confession in 1529. When the inhabitants had become evangelical, they tried to remove their statue of the mother of god in their church along with the veneration of the saints, so the saying goes. They brought their picture to herzogenaurach during the night and placed it on the stone bridge with the words that it should guard the houses of the herzogenaurach burghers. But, oh miracle, the next morning the mother of god was again standing on her side altar in the veitsbronn church. It often happened that the same game was played during the night, but always the statue was soon in its old ancestral place. Since that time the veitsbronn again cling to their miraculous image of the mother of god.

Legendary statue

Another version of the tale is told in veitsbronn. After that a swedish colonel loved to remove the statue from the church during the 30 years war. The next day she stood on the altar again. In anger, he cut off her head with a sword. Head and torso were moved to different places. The next day the statue of mary was back on the altar. The sword stroke could still be recognized as a near miss.
On ascension day, the faithful set out to visit the church in veitsbronn. The pilgrimage started at 12.30 o’clock at st. Otto, the fub pilgrims set off from burgstall at 1 p.M. The prayer and song texts were recited by susanne beierl and helmut muller. Shortly after 14.30 o’clock, the fub pilgrims reached the church in veitsbronn, where a devotion was held.
After the service, organizer susanne beierl thanked the protestant congregation for their hospitality before the pilgrims went to the catholic church of st. John.-the next day, she stood on the altar again and went to the church of the holy spirit to celebrate mass with chaplain sebastian schiller before returning to herzogenaurach after a short break.

Fishermen put 4000 young trout into the schwabach river

fishermen put 4000 young trout into the schwabach river

The district fishing association points out the schwabach as the habitat of salmonid waters, where you can also observe rare animals like the kingfisher or the grass snake. The schwabach rises near igensdorf in the district of forchheim. Southeastward it then flies to forth (district erlangen-hochstadt) and from there in a westerly direction to erlangen to mouth right into the regnitz river. The schwabach valley includes the communities of igensdorf, eckental, kleinsendelbach, neunkirchen am brand, dormitz, uttenreuth and buckenhof, and finally erlangen. In total, the schwabach is 32 kilometers long.

The water management authorities have designated the schwabach as salmonid water. A salmonid water is defined as a stream or river in which fish such as trout (salmo trutta) and grayling (thymallus thymallus) live, whose habitat must be preserved by means of care and maintenance by persons trained for this purpose. Furthermore, the waters are classified due to heavy metal contamination. Since the fish mentioned are very sensitive to this pollution, only the least polluted waters can be designated as salmonid waters.
