Pallet furniture for the classroom

It all started by accident when the schoolboys discovered two pallets that the janitor wanted to dispose of. The idea was quickly born to use it to build pallet furniture for the classroom. After a short time it was clear that the class wanted to do this as a voluntary project.
First, the students and their teacher michael kubert planned how the pallets would be made into furniture and what additional materials would be needed. They bought and paid for screws, wheels, foam and upholstery themselves out of their own pockets. In the first hour they distributed the various tasks such as sanding, saying, drilling and screwing and began to build the 2-seater sofa.
The workroom was a hive of activity, with sandpaper, cordless screwdrivers, hammers and cutter knives all part of the tools of the trade.
After three additional hours of school, the girls and boys had their first sofa ready. The only thing missing were the cushions covered in gray fabric, which one of the students had made together with her father. Now the students presented their 2-seater sofa to principal ulrike freifrau von und zu der tann. The principal was so pleased with the results of the project that she offered to provide financial support for a second sofa.
After four more pallets and the necessary building materials had been procured, the schoolchildren assembled their second piece of furniture in their free time. The leftovers were also used to make a small table.
The cooperation was changeable because different opinions prevailed. In the end they had agreed and had a lot of fun building it. Class 9a is very proud of the seating group they have built. This project has brought the class community even closer together, and the students are looking forward to spending free time together with their sit-down mobs.

Not only the water is foaming in the 2. triathlon national league

SSV forchheim finished the third competition of the 2. Triathlon-bundesliga successful on place 11 of 16. Ralf gartner finished 26th., followed directly by christoph prem, steffen lotter was 48th., andreas maiwald 62. And florian loos ran 71. Into the finish. This was a very good performance for the forchheimers, even though the first two competitions were not too long ago.

In a competition week, the preparation always looks the same: to recover from the pre-competition, there is a long swim session on monday and relaxed running on tuesday. Wednesday a hard swim session is scheduled, followed by two days of rest. A short cycling and running training session at competition speed is scheduled for saturday to get the hang of things. The material is also checked: air pressure at eight bar, chain oil and a drop of spooling agent in the swimming goggles to prevent them from fogging up.

In the first meters of the third race, the swimmers from forchheim positioned themselves at the right end in order to start as undisturbed as possible. But many athletes had this idea and the quintet found itself in the "washing machine" again. In triathlon, this expression describes the situation when many swimmers are jostling for position on one course and the water is churned up in the process. Not only that, gartner’s swimming goggles also filled up with water and everything foamed – that’s what happens when too much routine sets in and the spooling agent is still in the swimming goggles. Prem outperformed the main field of lotter, loos and gartner with the best ten swimmers. Maiwald did not call up his swimming form on this day.

High speed cycling

In contrast to the first two races, the leading group did not break away during the cycling and the main field swallowed the leading group on the last kilometers of the bike with an average speed of 44.8 km/h. Some athletes could not keep up with the high pace and continued in the back third, among them swimming specialist loos.

In the final run over 4.4 kilometers, despite the mishap in the swim, gartner was the best from forchheim, followed by prem and lotter. With a spirited running performance maiwald overtook some athletes. Loos, former swim coach of lotter in 1991/92, still stayed under the magic hour mark on the sprint distance. At the end of august the last two competitions start in team format, which is a strong point of the forchheimer. Because this is where the consistency of the athletes pays off. Four out of five starters of a team have to reach the goal together.

New upper franconian champion

The close proximity to forchheim attracted more ssv athletes to the trebgaster bathing lake, who started in the open category. Maria leidenberger and julia heilmann took up the chase for the crown of the upper franconian champion over the popular distance. Leidenberger took the top spot in the senior 3 age group. In the men’s category peter landgraf achieved this feat in the senior 5 category, alexander hitzler won silver in the senior 1 category and stefan leidenberger took bronze in the senior 4 category. Michael stirnweib started in the olympic distance and finished ninth overall. Slo

After the death of an uninvolved young woman in a car chase in berlin, one of the men in the getaway car has also died. The 18-year-old passenger succumbed to his injuries in hospital, according to the berlin public prosecutor’s office.

He allegedly stole tools – worth 300 euros, according to media reports – from a car with two other men on wednesday night before the devastating getaway.

Attempting to escape the police officers at high speed, the suspects crashed their car into several cars at an intersection. In the collision, the 22-year-old fubganger was hit and fatally injured. Two other female drivers were injured, as were the three alleged perpetrators. To avoid a blockade, the driver had initially also trapped and injured a police officer with his car. The latter, however, was able to leave the hospital a few hours after the incident.

At the scene of the accident, flowers, candles and a cardboard cutout of a woman now commemorate the 22-year-old. "We mourn you. And regret your senseless death," was written on a note that someone had attached to an electrical box. "Stop motorized violence," another sign read. On thursday evening there was a vigil at the crossing.

In the meantime, one of the suspects, a 14-year-old, was able to leave the hospital again, as a spokesman for the public prosecutor’s office said on request. The teenager was slightly injured and is now at large – he is suspected of involvement in the theft. He and the 18-year-old who has now died were already known to the police for previous offences.

On thursday evening, a warrant was issued against the 27-year-old main suspect and driver of the getaway car, among other things, on urgent suspicion of a prohibited car race resulting in death, as well as dangerous bodily injury. He was drunk while driving. The arrest warrant was announced to the man, who has the serbian citizenship, in the hospital. He continues to be guarded in the clinic by the police.
