As well? The tranzparence sets in too late. A large number of oil companies supply all the gas stations in germany, including the independent ones. The lucrative deals are made beforehand by this oligopoly. In which high is unknown. There is hardly any room for maneuver when it comes to the price of gasoline at the pump. Even the new transparency is of little use. The prices are not made at the gas stations on site.

The big mineral oil companies have their own central price departments that deal with this on a daily basis and control everything centrally, at the push of a button. The only difference the new location makes is that you no longer have to have your local gas station operators keep an eye on your competitors' prices. It's now easy to do on the internet.

And the driver? He can get a liter a penny cheaper if he goes to another gas station two streets away in town. He has hardly saved anything in the process, only polluting the environment a little more at times. Rough price jumps will probably be a thing of the past in the near future. But the elections will be over soon – so the new authority had to start quickly now.

Martin beyer receives the 2019 art scholarship offered by the city and county of bamberg. The bamberger city council thus followed in its session on 12. December the recommendation of the jury chaired by mayor christian lange (CSU), reports the city press office.

The jury – mayor and cultural officer christian lange, district administrator johann kalb (CSU), tanja kinkel (E.T.A.-hoffmann laureate 2018), elisabeth kraus (cultural laureate 2018) and verena kriest (representative of the reigning cultural laureate kurzfilmtage bamberg e.V.) – decided unanimously for the application of martin beyer.

Promising project

In the statement it says: "beyer is a young author active in various literary fields, who can already show several publications (novels, non-fiction, children's books) and who has also been able to continuously develop his work as a multiple prize winner of international scholarships." the project with which he applied for the bamberg fellowship, the completion of the first volume of the children's book series "the adventures of kriuwik and his friends", the jury unanimously found the project to be very concrete, structured and promising, which aroused curiosity and with which the author wanted to devote himself more intensively to the field of children's literature.

The additional context of involving children and young people through collaborative reading and discussion of the manuscripts offers a further added value of the project, which was expressly emphasized by the jury and received special recognition. Also the approach to strengthen the finished volumes by the development of a handicraft set as well as accompanying material for the educational work. In perspective, the two following volumes are to be written. Martin beyer will again work together with the illustrator ekaterina pashchenko."

Kriuwik's adventure

Little (and coarse) bookworms can already look forward to the adventures of kriuwik, the little alien creature from the planet motus (lat. Sensation, but also movement and dance), which has to make an emergency landing with its rocket in a kindergarten in bamberg. Together, people and creatures are looking for a solution to get the rocket going again, or rather, to get it going again. The tank could fill. Despite the joy of the hospitality and helpfulness of coarse and small, kriuwik is sometimes lonely, sad and homesick. Kriuwik learns: "quite confusing, that with the feelings!"

After the end of the art grant in 2019, the author and the city of bamberg are planning another presentation in which beyer will present his new work.

There they fit exactly, on the U25-stage
– although they are still clearly under the given cut. Marcel is for example 19, and at the same time singer and guitarist of the newcomer band sunset after noon. "It would be great if we could get on with our music and make music full-time or part-time", he says, and the others agree with him. A first opportunity to find out where they stand will be next weekend at the "umsonst&" festival drauben"-festival (UUD) in wurzburg.
Philip, who founded the band four years ago, is just under a year older than marcel, just like frank and valentin. Together, the four want to show what they can do. So the U25 stage was just right for the guys. "There is one band from each county in the district, and the average age of the band is less than 25 years old", explains philip. He registered the band over the internet and so sunset after noon will play on saturday for the county of kitzingen.

Handmade music

At their performance they want to inspire people with their self-written songs. Their handmade music should convince the audience even without electronic or other rough changes. "We play about 20 minutes", tells philip. During this time they will perform four of their songs and hope for success. "We are looking for a sponsor to make more publicity for us", says frank. On the internet they are represented with a homepage and on facebook and myspace you can also find them.
And also for the future the band has a plan: "we have already made a first rehearsal recording and a second recording is in attack", marcel explains. But the opportunity to play at the umsonst& is not too bad playing the drauben festival is what drives the band. "It's nice to have a goal to work towards", says marcel. Once a week they rehearse for several hours. For this they got a small room in mainbernheim as rehearsal room from philips grobmutter.

Spab in the breaks

Frank sets the beat on the drums and sings with a lot of feeling on the side. Philip proves his musical talent on the guitar. Marcel supports both frank on vocals and philip with his guitar. Together with valentin on the bass guitar it can start then. The songs are based on a basic idea that one of the four had. Then they put the song together, write lyrics and make a few minor changes during rehearsals. Of course, the spab may not be missing anyway.
And how did the band get its name in the first place?? There is no special meaning for the band. "Frank and I did a kind of brainstorming", tells philip. The two of them had written names on a piece of paper and together they created the name sunset after noon. "It should already be pronounceable and easy to enter", tells philip.
Before their appearance the boys are not particularly nervous, however. "Shortly before, when you stand on the stage, comes the excitement", explains valentin. Here he speaks from experience, because the upcoming performance is not their first. They have already played at a band contest for up-and-coming talent, at the maypole erection in mainbernheim, at several birthdays and at carnival as an intermediate group. Another appearance at the kirchweih in mainbernheim is still to come. But especially through their performance on saturday, the guys hope to get some more fans and new gigs.

In crisis situations, a captain is especially challenged. Ducking away is not an option, the female manuel neuer, who rigorously defended himself against doubts about his performance capabilities before the test of strength with the french top strikers kylian mbappe and antoine griezmann at the stade de france.

"I'm in great shape, i feel good, during the world championship i performed well," the 32-year-old said in the stade de france. Even his long-injured fub was absolutely okay, he said. He may not have had "any match luck in the last few games". But he also lacked at times the opportunities to excel.

Neuer has no self-doubt. And he also became fundamental: his game "as a rough goalkeeper" is just not "to fly through the penalty area". He does a lot with good positional play. "You don't get those moments where you're showboating," he said, in contrast to other, more spectacularly holding goalkeepers.

In the second part of the DFB press conference, joachim low announced some personnel changes compared to the 0:3 loss in holland. "But manuel neuer will not be concerned. He will be in goal," announced the national coach. Low has no doubts about neuer. And the captain wants to go ahead: "we know the seriousness of the situation. Our goal and motivation is very high to keep the three points for ourselves."

Neuer was reminded several times of the first leg in munich, when the german eleven held the world champions to a 0-0 draw thanks to a unified team and defensive performance. "It was a decent game. We had the opportunity to win."

After the defeat in amsterdam and the fall to the last place in the nations league, however, everything about the national team is being questioned – not only the national coach. Even neuer, at 32 the oldest in the squad, seems to have lost his untouchable status after the world cup and the new debacle in the netherlands.

Neuer's role in the DFB circle has changed. The long absence due to the multiple fub injury has tarnished the status of the team senior. Not only rival and crown prince marc-andre ter stegen found it irritating that low returned neuer to number 1 status before the world cup despite his long break from competition.

Neuer was not the culprit in the world cup debacle. But the charisma of earlier times fades at times. The resoluteness especially with high balls into the penalty area seems to have dwindled. The first goal conceded in holland after a corner was a testament to that. "That looked unfortunate," he admitted. "It was a cross from goal, very difficult for me to get to it. We then also lose two head-to-head duels again. I think I am partly to blame and our defensive players too." but except for the goal against he was "very satisfied" with his game.

In the debate about low's loyalty to the 2014 world champions, a new one cannot be left out of the discussion. Low also attests ter stegen the status of world class, which the 26-year-old regularly proves at FC barcelona. Nevertheless, for low, ter stegen is only "the man to come. It's up to newer to preserve the ranking.

The captain himself can only look good if the players in front of him defend in a compact, stable and disciplined manner. The final period, with two more goals against and a crossbar goal against the netherlands, was "a bit harakiri," he lamented. "You were punished in cold blood," said neuer – referring to himself as a goalkeeper.

Neuer or ter stegen? At the 2020 european championship, neuer will be 34; at the 2022 world cup, he'll be 36. But he is the captain and world champion goalkeeper of 2014. Neuer's international record is outstanding, with 57 wins, 11 draws, 13 defeats and 72 goals conceded in 81 internationals. Against the world champion, the "game luck" should also return to him.

Since the so-called new castle was rusted in for work, the stucco walkway along the facade facing maxstrabe is no longer usable because of the noise, as is the fubgangeruberweg. The crosswalk there was crossed out in yellow. Still, many people have to cross the road there. The section is part of the main road link between the saline parking lot and the city center.

25 people, who wanted to get from one side to the other, paid kast on monday within ten minutes.A person with a rollator needs seven seconds to cross, says kast. A car was traveling at 30 mph and was traveling almost ten meters per second. Where the scaffolding blocks the walkway, a sign still advises people to use the other side of the road. There is no offer of how to get to this other side safely.

Two possibilities

According to traffic law, explains lothar manger, traffic expert at the bad kissingen police department, it is permissible to make the pedestrian path invalid with a yellow tape. He understands, however, the desire to preserve the crosswalk. Two possibilities come to his mind: if you make the sidewalk under the junction passable, you can use the crosswalk again. This would be possible through an emergency sidewalk at the new castle. For this purpose, only a few parking spaces on the north side of maxstrabe had to give way temporarily.

Julius geis is currently standing by the oven and pushing in the plootze. The door is closed, after a few minutes he examines with an expert eye, whether the "katzemicher plootz" is ready. Customers are already waiting eagerly in front of the bakery. The oven festival has a long tradition in katzenbach. "It has been held every year since 1985 and enjoys great popularity", says the chairman of the katzenbach music and local history society e. V., jurgen metz. Many people help to prepare the pancakes, because of course they have to be prepared and topped before they go into the oven. "We're a well-coordinated team, everyone knows exactly what they have to do", female metz to report.

The plootze are made according to an old recipe, and the knowledge of how exactly this is done is passed down from generation to generation. In the meantime, a lot of young people are helping out, and it is important to them that the tradition is maintained. And also the "insertion the plootze is baked by the young people at the oven party. Fabian and lukas halbig are just as involved here as julius geis. The knowledge of how to do this properly, they have learned from their fathers, who for years were entrusted with this activity at the oven festival and of course still look over their shoulders.

It sounds delicious what is baked here. "Besides zwiebelplootz we also have fruchteplootz", says metz. "Not to forget the matteplootz", adds norbert halbig. With this grated potatoes are added to the dough. "In the past, the expensive flour was probably also stretched with it, today it is a delicacy", so half with a smile. In addition to the delicious topping, which can be made of currants, apples, cherries or plums, the "doitsch", as it is known in the trade, is a must for this type of plootz not. "The doitsch consists of melted butter with cinnamon, which is spread over the plootz before baking", according to half of the experts. This makes the whole thing even more delicious and just listening to it makes your mouth water.

Baking in katzenbach according to old tradition. The wood is burned on the firebricks and then taken out of the oven. This is how the stone is heated to about 240 degrees and the plootze is "shot in", as it is called in the jargon. "Of course you have a probe to check the temperature nowadays, but you still have to try out whether the oven is at the right temperature," says the chairman of the musician's association, female norbert halbig from experience. So first of all a single plootz is shot in, if this is not burned outside and inside already through, then one knows that now is the optimum time.

"If it is too hot, it is cooled down with water", says. This is done with clean straw bushes, just like in the old days. A total of 20 plootze, each with a diameter of 40 cm, are baked in this way, and when 90 are finished, the oven must be reheated. "After 20 minutes, the wood has burned down enough for us to continue", says halbig. On the upper floor of the fire station, the women have their hands full during this time. After all, the plootz have to be made and topped.

In the meantime, entertainment was provided for the visitors in the marquee. On saturday, spilk played, on sunday, the old stars of the katzenbach music and home association as well as the youth orchestra and other bands entertained the visitors. On monday the festival ended with a kesselfleisch dinner. "We were very satisfied with the number of visitors. The weather was wonderful", chairman jurgen metz is pleased. Visitors from near and far came to enjoy the delicious plootz.

In both mail order centers, the strike is to continue until saturday at the latest. The hessians had spoken out only on wednesday for a prolongation of the actions. Meanwhile, amazon germany boss ralf kleber stressed that the work stoppages had no impact on the shipping business.

No packages are left lying around, he emphasized. With 4.6 million orders on the 15th, the mail order giant. December had been the peak ordering day. That is around 15 percent more than on the peak day last year. Verdi spokesman schmitz, on the other hand, said that in any case it would be more difficult for the company to meet the order deadlines.

Strike leader thomas kleber at amazon in leipzig stressed that even on day four the willingness to strike was unbroken. "The strike tent is full". No reliable figures were available on possible effects. "But we know that it is tame and sometimes critical. It doesn't get any easier when 500 people are standing outside," said schneider.

In the conflict, which has been smoldering for months, verdi is demanding the start of negotiations for a collective agreement on the conditions of the retail and mail-order trade for about 9000 employees nationwide. The mail-order giant takes its cue from the lower level of the logistics industry. Amazon germany chief kleber confirmed on thursday: "we see no reason to enter into negotiations with verdi."

There the ADAC nordbayern awarded him as best motor sportsman 2012. With his former german touring car championship (DTM) opel astra V8 he was in the lead at half-time of the german mountain championship.

"After accreditation at the spa and congress center, a kind of butler came up to me and asked who he was allowed to announce", hoffmann bass was amazed by the reception. He then read out my name and shouted in front of the 480 invited guests ‘the new german champion has arrived’. And then he rolls out a red carpet in front of me" describes hoffmann. But when he looked at the program of the honorary evening, he could not find his name anywhere, even when he read through it again.

Because he had a fight with his girlfriend and she got on his nerves, a 19-year-old went wild on a car mirror. The blow to the mirror and the 50-euro damage that resulted have now brought him before the juvenile court of kitzingen. This has stopped the procedure. If the young man pays 150 euros, the matter is settled for him.

Whether he can pull it off, however, remains to be seen. A first attempt to settle the matter has already failed once. The man did not take advantage of the offer of the public prosecutor’s office to discontinue the proceedings due to damage to property in exchange for 16 hours of community service. So he ended up in the dock.

Tour through wurzburg ends in destructive rage

It quickly became clear that the 19-year-old has a tendency not to open important letters and to miss or fail to keep appointments. At least he read the summons and came to the meeting. In court he also admitted the accusation. He was with the girlfriend and buddies in wurzburg on the road. Then he quarreled with his girlfriend. "She got on my nerves, so I broke the mirror", he told the court.

In the meantime, he has realized that this was not the right reaction and he wanted to get the matter off the table. The court agreed, but not without conditions. The 16 social hours initially brought into play failed because the man makes an education, is in the zwischenprufung and has hardly any time. So it was agreed that 150 euros would be paid to the district youth council by the 15th anniversary of the election. July. At the end, the youth judge’s words of warning: "this is the last chance to end the proceedings without a verdict, so take advantage of it."
