  • S2-Verlängerung: RMV, Landkreise Und Landhessen Stoßen
    Hofheim, 21. Dezember 2020 S2-Verlängerung: RMV, Landkreise und Land Hessen stoßen Planungen an Vorstudie von RMV und Landkreisen empfiehlt S-Bahn-Verbindung zwischen Kreis Offenbach und Landkreis Darmstadt-Dieburg / Land Hessen will Planungsvereinbarung mit DB schließen / vor S-Bahn-Verlängerung Halbstundentakt auf Dreieichbahn bis Dieburg geplant Im Rahmen einer umfassenden Vorstudie haben der Rhein-Main- Verkehrsverbund (RMV), der Kreis Offenbach und der Landkreis Darmstadt- Dieburg in mehreren Varianten untersucht, wie die beiden Landkreise per Schiene besser miteinander verknüpft werden können: Favorisiert wird eine Verlängerung der S2 bis Dieburg oder in einer zweiten Variante bis Darmstadt. Zum Abschluss der Vorstudie verständigten sich die Partner mit dem Land Hessen in der „Dietzenbach-Dieburger Erklärung“ darüber, im nächsten Schritt eine Planungsvereinbarung mit der Deutschen Bahn zu treffen. Diese beinhaltet eine Vorplanung sowie die Nutzen-Kosten-Untersuchung der beiden Varianten. Im Rahmen dieser Planungen können dann tiefergehende Untersuchungen zum genauen Streckenverlauf, zur Bautechnik und den Umweltwirkungen durchgeführt sowie die Förderwürdigkeit überprüft werden. Erweisen sich die Vorschläge als förderfähig, wäre eine Realisierung der Verlängerung bis Anfang der 2030er-Jahre denkbar. Variante 1: Verlängerung der S2 bis Dieburg Das beste Verhältnis von Investitionsmitteln zu den zu erwartenden Vorteilen ergibt die Verlängerung der S2 von ihrem Endpunkt in Dietzenbach über die Dreieichbahn nach Dieburg. Rund 4.500 zusätzliche werktägliche Fahrgäste könnten so hinzukommen. Das Konzept beinhaltet eine 3,1 Kilometer lange Neubaustrecke, um die Lücke im Schienennetz zwischen Dietzenbach und Urberach zu schließen. Ab Urberach könnte die S2 dann die vorhandenen Gleise der Dreieichbahn nutzen. Durch Elektrifizierung und Ausbau der Bahnsteige wird in dieser Variante die bestehende Infrastruktur für den S-Bahn-Betrieb ertüchtigt.

  • Altlast Teerfabrik Lang in Offenbach Am Main Information Für Beteiligte (Stand: August 2020)
    Regierungspräsidium Darmstadt Abteilung Arbeitsschutz und Umwelt Frankfurt Frankfurt, den 18. August 2020 Az.: IV/F 41.1-100i-0843 Bearbeiter/in: Dieter Binder Durchwahl: 27 14 – 2923 E-Mail: [email protected] Altlast Teerfabrik Lang in Offenbach am Main Information für Beteiligte (Stand: August 2020) 1. Ausgangssituation Zwischen 1914 und 1929 betrieb die Fa. Gustav Lang auf dem ca. 18.000 m² umfassenden Areal am Nordring in Offenbach-Kaiserlei eine chemische Fabrik für Teerprodukte. Innerhalb des relativ kurzen Betriebszeitraums kam es zu massiven Einträgen an Teeröl in den Unter- grund. Bei Boden- und Grundwasseruntersuchungen seit 1991 wurde festgestellt, dass der Untergrund sehr stark mit Teeröl kontaminiert ist. Die Mächtigkeit der teerölverunreinigten Bodenhorizonte beträgt mehrere Meter und reicht bis auf die Basis des oberen Grundwasserleiters. Dabei hat sich das schwere Teeröl zum großen Teil als Phase auf dem grundwasserstauenden Rupelton in ca. 8-10 Metern Tiefe horizontal sowohl nach Norden zum Main hin als auch nach Süden ausgebreitet, so dass auch angrenzende Grundstücke betroffen sind. Hauptschadstoffe dieser Teerölkontamination sind Polyzyklische Aromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe (PAK), Heterozyklische Kohlenwasserstoffe (NSO-Het), einkernige aromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe (BTEX) und Phenole sowie sonstige für Teerölschäden typische Schadstoffe. Die Menge an teerölverunreinigtem Boden beträgt nach Berechnungen ca. 64.000 Tonnen. Daneben liegen in der zuoberst liegenden Auffüllung auffüllungstypische Schadstoffe wie Schwermetalle und PAK vor. Eine Verlagerung in tiefere Schichten wurde nicht festgestellt. Die teeröltypischen Schadstoffe finden sich auch im Grundwasser in sehr hohen Konzentrationen wieder. Betroffen ist vor allem das Grundwasser des oberflächennahen Grundwasserleiters, das einen Flurabstand von 3-4 Metern aufweist. Hier hat sich eine Schadstofffahne vom Schadensherd in Richtung Süd bis Südwest ausgebildet.

    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Dominikanerinnenkloster St. Gertrud (Cologne, Germany) Book of Hours 1481-1488 1 vol (0.2 linear foot) Call no.: MS 1057 Collection overview The Dominikanerinnenkloster St. Gertud (Dominican Convent of Saint Gertrude) operated in Cologne, Germany, for nearly five and half centuries. An important center in connection with German mysticism in the 13th and 14th centuries, the Kloster survived the Reformation, however persistently poor finances led to its decline in the 18th century. After it was abolished during a wave of secularization on October 14, 1802. This diminutive book of hours was prepared by Dominican nuns at the Kloster St. Gertrud during the 1480s. Like some other German books of hours it lacks the calendar, Gospel lessons, and the two prayers to the Virgin, Obsecro te and O intemerata, however it includes additional liturgical texts, such as Offices for major feasts, as well as music for the funeral service. This copy may have been made for or by the prioress Magdalena Frankengruenerin (1481-1488), and remained in the convent until the eighteenth century. See similar SCUA collections: Books and book history Germany Religion Background on Dominikanerinnenkloster St. Gertrud The Dominikanerinnenkloster St. Gertud (Dominican Convent of Saint Gertrude) and its associated church operated for nearly five and half centuries in the Neumarkt in Cologne, Germany. Led by the recluse Helwigis, the community was founded in 1257 and was affiliated with the Dominican order beginning in 1286/1287, becoming known for housing relics of the 7th century Gertud of Nivelles, a saint who was associated with the Benedictine Abbeys of Nivelles and Karlburg.

  • American Experimental Music in West Germany from the Zero Hour To
    Beal_Text 12/12/05 5:50 PM Page 8 one The American Occupation and Agents of Reeducation 1945-1950 henry cowell and the office of war information Between the end of World War I and the advent of the Third Reich, many American composers—George Antheil, Marc Blitzstein, Ruth Crawford, Conlon Nancarrow, Roger Sessions, Adolph Weiss, and others (most notably, Aaron Copland, Virgil Thomson, and Roy Harris, who studied with Nadia Boulanger in France)—contributed to American music’s pres- ence on the European continent. As one of the most adventurous com- posers of his generation, Henry Cowell (1897–1965) toured Europe several times before 1933. Traveling to the continent in early June 1923, Cowell played some of his own works in a concert on the ship, and visiting Germany that fall he performed his new piano works in Berlin, Leipzig, and Munich. His compositions, which pioneered the use of chromatic forearm and fist clusters and inside-the-piano (“string piano”) techniques, were “extremely well received and reviewed in Berlin,” a city that, according to the com- poser, “had heard a little more modern music than Leipzig,” where a hos- tile audience started a fistfight on stage.1 A Leipzig critic gave his review a futuristic slant, comparing Cowell’s music to the noisy grind of modern cities; another simply called it noise. Reporting on Cowell’s Berlin concert, Hugo Leichtentritt considered him “the only American representative of musical modernism.” Many writers praised Cowell’s keyboard talents while questioning the music’s quality.2 Such reviews established the tone 8 Beal_Text 12/12/05 5:50 PM Page 9 for the German reception of unconventional American music—usually performed by the composers themselves—that challenged definitions of western art music as well as stylistic conventions and aesthetic boundaries of taste and technique.

  • T-457 Publication Title: Documents Concerning Jews in the Berlin
    Publication Number: T-457 Publication Title: Documents Concerning Jews in the Berlin Document Center Date Published: n.d. DOCUMENTS CONCERNING JEWS IN THE BERLIN DOCUMENT CENTER Introduction This collection was filmed in 1959 for the Library of the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York. The original records are presumably in the custody of the Bundesarchiv, although they apparently were not re- filmed during the microfilming of all Berlin Document Center (BDC) records in Berlin in 1992-1994, prior to the transfer of the BDC from U.S. control to the Bundesarchiv. The records are organized into various collections, i.e., Archiv Schumacher, Streicher, Hans Frank, Hauptarchiv der NSDAP, Geschaedigte Juden, etc., and Ordner, or folders, and include newspaper clippings, letters, manuscripts, pamphlets, reports and other documents originating with the SA, SS, Gestapo, Reich Ministry of Justice and Reichskulturkammer (RKK, Reich Chamber of Culture) from 1920- 1945. The publication contains 14 rolls, twelve in 16 mm and 2 in 35 mm. No frame numbers were used in filming. The BDC filmed a listing of roll contents (in German) at the end of each roll. Some images are very dark and difficult to read. CONTENTS Roll Description 1B Archiv Schumacher (see also roll 1) Ord. 240 I: “Deutschland und die Judenfrage” (Germany and the Jewish Question), undated treatise by Dr. Friedrich Karl Wiebe, 82 pages.
