In the seemingly endless process history of the so-called allowance affair at the Ludwigsburg Administrative University, an end is on the horizon. According to the Stuttgart Regional Court, the former rector of the civil service college pays 180,000 euros in damages. With this, all claims of the country against him are settled, he is very likely not facing disciplinary proceedings, said a court spokesman on Tuesday. The ex-rector had made a corresponding settlement with Theresia Bauer’s (Greens) Ministry of Science. At first she had "Stuttgart newspaper" (Wednesday) reported on the agreement on the amount.
With this compromise, the ex-rector and the ministry followed a suggestion of the responsible criminal chamber, said the spokesman. For these, it was primarily about shortening the criminal proceedings. According to the court, the pleadings and the verdict in the criminal case are now announced for December 22nd (8:30 a.m.).
The indictment accuses the former rector of having given 13 professors illegal allowances immediately before he left office at the end of 2011. The proceedings against the former Chancellor, who were co-defendants, were suspended for the time being in return for a payment of 45,000 euros. Twelve professors who had benefited from the extra payments have already paid monetary requirements of 23,500 euros each. The proceedings against a remaining professor who had been accused of aiding and abetting embezzlement were discontinued in return for a payment of the same amount.
An investigative committee of the state parliament had already dealt with the allowance affair. In the course of this, Minister of Science Bauer also came under pressure. The university is regarded as a management training center, where the junior civil servants for the state of Baden-Württemberg are trained.argumentative essay against abortion

According to industry information, only two underground slate mines are still in operation in Germany. The Theis-Böger company mines the blue-gray rock near Altlay in the Hunsrück. And at Schmallenberg in the Sauerland, the Magog company. The 400 million year old product is not cheap. According to Lothar Henzler, a slate expert in Boppard am Rhein, a square meter of roofing with German slate costs around 125 euros. It is cheaper with imported goods from Spain or completely different roof coverings.
The Theis-Böger company explains: "In Spain you dig a small hole in certain areas and come across slate. Dismantling is easier." Decades ago, therefore, European slate production relocated there. In addition to some builders in this country, according to Theis-Böger, monument protection is particularly keen on German slate, which is rare today, when renovating monuments.
A night-time dispute between two Syrians singing on the street and two Germans in Schmallenberg (Sauerland) escalated into a shot from a blank gun. As the police announced on Wednesday, the two 20 and 23-year-old Syrians were singing loudly on their way home on Wednesday night after visiting a sisha bar. Suddenly a car turned and stopped. The passenger asked the men reportedly why they yelled at them. When the Syrians said they were only singing, an argument broke out. One of the Syrians then took a photo of the vehicle registration number with his cell phone. The passenger then shot a blank pistol out of the window into the air.
The two 19-year-old inmates were later tracked down in the vehicle owner’s apartment, according to police. They received a criminal complaint for violating the weapons law. The gas and signal pistol was not found, only a bullet case on site.
Unknown people blew up an ATM in Schmallenberg in the Hochsauerland district early on Friday morning. Then the alleged two perpetrators fled, as the police announced.

A 23-year-old man was stabbed in front of a restaurant in Schmallenberg in the Sauerland.

According to foresters, the Harz, Sauerland, Franconian Forest and Thuringian Forest are the most threatened forests in Germany. "In the meantime it looks devastating in the Harz"said Ulrich Dohle from the Association of German Foresters. The reason for this is the ever advancing climate change. The droughts in recent years have made the trees drier and more unstable. If strong storms occur more often, they would therefore tip over quickly. The harmful bark beetle has also continued to multiply. Across Germany, around 300,000 hectares of forest have died in the last three years. That is an area that is larger than the Saarland.
However, Dohle does not believe in a ban on entry for visitors: "That wouldn’t do the forest any good. Visitors to the forest are not a problem, they are an added value". For example, most fires in forests are reported by walkers. Garbage left behind or illegally disposed of, as well as burning cigarettes are a problem, but not a mass phenomenon. The foresters also notice that for several months there have been more people in the forest than before. "In Corona times, the forest is one of the few places where you can move freely", said Jackdaw.
According to Dohle, each individual is asked to save the forests by, for example, questioning their own consumer behavior. At a meeting of the Association of Foresters on Friday in Göttingen, strategies were discussed, among other things, on how to cope with the forest crisis. "Forest care is a generational task that cannot be done overnight", said Jackdaw. Nevertheless, climate change cannot be stopped completely. Therefore, at some point in the coming years, one has to say goodbye to the forest that we know today. From the point of view of the federal government, there is a lack of forest staff who can convert the existing forests and make them fit for the future.
In Germany there are currently around 11.4 million hectares of forest. This means that around a third of the country’s area is covered with trees.
The dead woman recovered from the Trebgast bathing lake (district of Kulmbach) is the missing 22-year-old swimmer. The police headquarters in Bayreuth announced this on Friday.

The 22-year-old student from Bayreuth went to the lake with two friends last Wednesday. She did not return from swimming. As a result, a large search operation was started, which continued on Thursday. Around 100 emergency services, water rescue, fire brigade and police took part.
