"Franc for philippines – it was a spontaneous idea for a benefit concert, and the balance turned out neatly. The city of eltmann and committed groups from the district provide aid in the philippines, which were devastated by the typhoon: almost 6000 euros were collected.

For relatives and compatriots
With a benefit event, young philippinos from the habberg district wanted to support relatives and compatriots in the pacific who lost their belongings and some of their families as a result of typhoon haiyan. Young artists from the region – including one from munich – performed for free.

A film about the "supertaifun he began by stirring up the feelings of the audience in the old gymnasium on the main peninsula. It was the strongest storm so far, there were 5260 fatalities. The wind roared over the region at 380 kilometers per hour. But like the palm trees and nature, the people there are ultimately indestructible. The message of the film is: "in the end, wind and water are not the end of the story."

Several philippinos in habberge county come from the less affected north of the country. That evening guest in eltmann was liza from kerbfeld. She is from the south, as she told our newspaper, where the typhoon hit. Liza has been living here for 15 years, it took a lot of strength and courage for her to talk about herself and her family. They were seven siblings. A brother and three sisters still live in the philippines:

weeks of uncertainty
"our house was right next to the water at the sea in tacloban, where the typhoon caused the most severe damage. I have only had contact with my family for the first time a week and a half ago and have been living here not knowing if my mother and siblings are still alive."

Just a few days ago she had another two or three minutes of contact via cell phone. Still they do not really know what their family on 8. November happened. "We had one of the wooden houses there, and my siblings stayed there until the water was already above the knees. Then, fortunately, they were able to escape and since then they have been living in a small stone row house to which they were evacuated. There is nothing left of our house by the sea. Thank god they are all alive."

So far, contact with the mother is very difficult, almost impossible, because of the lack of electricity, as she reported, and you have to walk alone for ten minutes to charge your cell phone for a short time.
The helpfulness of the visitors and guests was evident. Mayor michael ziegler (CSU) said that he was at a loss for words after seeing such pictures.

He thought it was great that philippinos planned a benefit event here and showed their connection to their relatives and friends on the island. "In the meantime, filipinos are also a part of eltmann, lived here, invite to many events, and therefore the city also donates 1000 euros for this action. Of course this is only a drop in the ocean. But we thank you for this commitment and do not slacken in your efforts. There is no 'third world' but only a world where we are allowed to live."

Other donors
Klaus Fortsch from the kolping family joined the ranks of the donors and also handed over 1000 euros. The money comes from the old clothes collection campaigns of kolping eltmann in spring and autumn. The "IHADG-group ("I have a dream"), kirchlauter, gave 500 euro. Their leader dominik baum reminded of their role model martin luther-king. The socio-politically interested youth group has already donated over 5000 euros in the last two years, has a godchild in africa and supports an SOS children's village.

Johanna kaiser from eltmann, whose mother teresa philippina is like the co-organizers karin and diana hornung, is actively involved in this group. The money came from sales at the christmas markets in rabelsdorf and kirchlauter.

Members of the school committee of the friedrich-ruckert-gymnasium came from ebern. Your nicholas campaign brought 600 euro. Jan batzner, nele thomann and lukas mittelstaedt presented this donation on behalf of their fellow students.

In general, especially the youth took a big part in this benefit evening and also the actors on the stage put themselves in the service of the good cause. The hip-hop formation "dynamic soxxs" showed their skills the dance school pelzer from schweinfurt presented their latest dance creations. The suddeutsche champions of the past years hope for a success at the german championship in 2014.

From habfurt the "maintales" were on the stage. They have made a name for themselves as german rappers with critical lyrics, for example about alcohol. Dopewalka" was equally enthusiastic from munich – secret tip in the reggae scene.

The two families, diana hornung with her daughter karin from eschenbach and teresa kaiser with her daughter johanna, who also moderated the program, were happy about the support of the sponsors and guests at the benefit concert. Teresa kaiser assured that every euro will reach those affected without administrative fees.

Part of the money is to be given directly to some families through a bank in cebu, and the other part is to be given to a pastor who has already been involved in church services here in eltmann and who was best able to judge the need in his parish there.

Of course, the guests also enjoyed filipino specialties such as delicious spring rolls and noodle dishes as well as filipino beer.

There are seven sites in the "an der zaubach" area, for which the bridge is the only connection to the stadtsteinach road network. Due to the poor structural condition, the load limit of the structure had to be reduced to three tons years ago.

The result: residents not only had to haul their garbage cans up to the federal highway, they also had to obtain special permits when, for example, oil or building materials were being delivered to the site. The 55-year-old entrepreneur can still remember that for the new roofing of his house, the tiles even had to be lifted over the zaubach with a crane.

Destructive flood
The floods of 2011 then finished off the bridge: the structure was literally lifted out of its hinges and renewal could no longer be postponed. In the meantime, the farmer and his neighbors had even supported the dilapidated construction with wooden planks. Not for nothing, as the demolition by gunther-bau showed: the iron girders under the roadway were rusted through in numerous places and were partly as thin as paper.

In july, the bridge renewal began according to the plans of graduate engineer thomas spindler. The structure, which has been widened to allow trucks to access the adjacent properties, measures almost six meters in width and 5.5 meters wide.

In the course of the construction work, the renewal of the water pipe from the federal road to the properties was also completed.

Provisional rerouting
The fact that the residents were able to reach their houses with vehicles despite the construction work is thanks to the obligingness of the schramm family: after the the construction company had built a temporary crossing of concrete pipes and gravel a few meters downstream, so that the residents could drive out over the road onto the federal highway.

All in all, more than 250 euros were spent on the work.000 euros invested, as mayor roland wolfrum (SPD) explains. The all-inclusive package, as wolfrum calls it, will be with about 125.000 euros subsidized by the state, about 200 alone.000 euros of the total costs are for the bridge construction.

In march 2019, two young men from bamberg kicked a man they didn't know, who was lying on the ground. They denied the charges before the juvenile court, but were nevertheless sentenced to permanent arrest and community service hours. The court believed the prosecution witnesses.

Superficial description

"When you fight for the truth, it can take a long time" – when juvenile court judge martin waschner says this sentence, it is not even half-time in the courtroom. In the process, he and his two friends have already had to listen to one marche story after another for four hours. Prosecutor sturmer will still have to deal with two witnesses conjured out of the hat who want to exonerate both defendants with their superficial account on the grounds of unsworn false testimony.

The trial against three young men from armenia, the ukraine and russia had already begun with a bang. All of them are schoolboys or. Trainees, between 18 and 21 years, two live in a shared accommodation for cursed in bamberg. The armenian who set things in motion with a fist punch, however, can not appear. He was summarily deported to his home country before the trial because of a different verdict. There he currently has to do military service. What remains is a ukrainian who is not really a ukrainian. He and his parents told the authorities that they came from russian-occupied lugansk.

The incident that has now been charged took place in march 2019 at the central bus station (ZOB) in bamberg. The two defendants are after a "successful" pub crawl on the way home. But they still want to salvage some alcohol supplies from the schliebfachern at the ZOB. Shortly after one o'clock in the morning they meet a group of young men and women from the district of bamberg. They also want to go home after a birthday party. The accused, who has been deported in the meantime, begins with the usual words: "why do you look so stupid??" a dispute. A shoving match ensues, during which a 19-year-old schoolboy from the group falls backwards against a bench and remains lying unconscious.

Contradictions

Then the stories of the accused and the witnesses from the group diverge. And so far that the two defenders aybora akgun from nurnberg and manfred hofmann from bamberg will demand acquittals. The pleadings speak of obvious contradictions and deliberate lies. If the defendants are to be believed, they themselves are assaulted, threatened with a broken beer bottle and beaten while lying on the ground. They only resisted. The russian german had broken his middle hand several times during a fist punch in defense. He lost his apprenticeship as a result. But they vehemently deny that they kicked him in the head and upper body.

If the witnesses from the group are to be believed, both defendants kicked the young man lying on the ground. Another was grabbed by the leg and dragged across the square. The reason for this seems to have been that the girls from the group were "stupidly accosted" by the defendants are said to have been. The "clarification begins "in a normal tone, then the situation will degenerate. In the end, both defendants will receive two weeks of permanent arrest for dangerous bodily harm. During the vacations, he can serve his sentence in a special youth detention center in wurzburg. In addition, everyone must perform 40 hours of community service at the lifeline bamberg association.

Only the fact that it ended rather mildly with a lip laceration, a needle and shoulder contusion spares the duo a custodial sentence.
