Life has finally returned to the house at Osterbergstrasse 2 in Resse. Strollers who take a look through the large glass panes of the former savings bank and future family doctor’s practice experience the doctor of internal medicine Anja Brinkmann as an interior designer. The doctor paints, screws and saws together with her husband, a lawyer. With an appealing result, as a first look at the practice rooms reveals.
The waiting area is already equipped. The reception counter in the entrance area is still missing. In its place there is currently a table full of tools. But there are already pictures on the walls. “People who pass by, wave,” says Brinkmann and is happy about their location on the “presentation plate”.
With the family doctor’s practice, the 40-year-old has fulfilled a long-cherished wish. “For me, my own practice is both an opportunity and a perspective,” she says. So that the first contact with the patient does not depend on chance, she and her team of three employees invite you to an open day on Saturday, September 4th, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. So everyone can get an impression of the new practice for themselves.
Local mayor Jochen Pardey, who is also active on the board of the Bürger für Resse association, looks relieved when he sits in the waiting area for a rehearsal. For him and the other 500 members of the association, which was founded in 2006, securing local medical care was a key reason for founding the company at the time. Now the tenacity of the club members shows success for the third time. A doctor practiced for around ten years, the successor only ran a branch in Resse for a short time. But now, in Anja Brinkmann, someone who wants to stay has been found.
The doctor would like to accompany her patients in Resse for a long time
A friend of the doctor had become aware of the Resser’s search for a family doctor through advertising posters and informed the internist. “For me this is an opportunity and at the same time a perspective,” says Brinkmann. She is planning the next 20 years of work at the Resse site, and she knows her way around rural areas. “I come from the provinces,” says the 40-year-old. She went to school in Celle, studied in Magdeburg and then worked at large hospitals in Hanover. Through her parents in the country, she learns up close how important good medical care is outside of metropolitan areas.
“I would like to be able to accompany patients over a longer period of time” – that is what Brinkmann would like. As a doctor at a clinic, she usually never saw the treated people again after they were discharged. Her work in a family doctor’s practice in Hanover was also characterized by frequently changing patients. Since student residences were in the catchment area, there were frequent new faces.
“Brinkmann’s focus on the Resse location and her holistic, cross-age concept as a family doctor harmonizes with the interests of the residents,” says my pardey. “We didn’t want a practice branch again,” he adds. “You have to reckon with a start-up time of one to two years,” says the doctor, referring to the workload in her practice. Also because a building area is currently being built in the Resser Lönswinkel, she expects a growing number of patients.
Appointments can be booked online
The practice’s website is already finished and can be reached at www.hausarztpraxis-resse.de. “Many younger people have already booked an appointment online,” reports Brinkmann. From September 6th, it will offer consultation hours on three mornings and two days of the week all day. She also wants to introduce an acute consultation hour from 8.30 a.m. to 9.30 a.m. on weekdays. Those looking for help can then use these without an appointment. The entire internal medicine program from EKG to lung function and ultrasound will soon be offered again in Resse.
And what has the new doctor already seen from Resse? Brinkmann and her family have now got to know the moor adventure trail. Some neighbors too, for example to borrow a folding rule. And when asked about hobbies, she replied in a good mood: “I don’t have any hobbies – I have three children!”

When she was just 8 years old, little Ava-Lilly Sterland tried to take her own life after suffering repeated attacks from bullying. Now 10 years old and already recovered, she uses her experience to try to help other children who face similar situations. She lives with her family in Solihull, England.

In a video originally shared in May this year, on her Instagram account, the girl tells a bit of her story. “A few years ago I was bullied. I was scared all the time at school and I didn’t know what to do,” she wrote. “I found the courage to tell my mom and dad, and they switched schools. I loved the new school.”
However, a few months later, she began to hear a “strange voice” in her head. This voice said that no one liked her and that she should get hurt. It was then that she tried to commit suicide. “My mom found me just in time. After that, people started to believe Mom and Dad when they said I needed help,” continued Ava-Lilly.
She then received help, and today she considers herself a happy girl. “If you ever feel like I did, or if you’re being bullied, please tell an adult you trust,” she warns.
This week, the story became the subject of a Mirror report. In an interview, Ava-Lilly’s mother, Sophie Sterland, 34, said her daughter was always very quiet and liked to be alone in her room. “I didn’t know other children with depression. It breaks my heart and I can’t believe what my daughter went through”, lamented the mother
After two years of being bullied at school, the girl was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). “We were horrified to learn that she had been suffering in silence for two years. We put her in a new school, but it was clear that something was going on in her head,” Sophie said.
The mother remembers that she took her daughter to hospitals, clinics and a care center, but nothing was done. “For a year, the doctors said there was nothing wrong with Ava. Our entire family turned upside down and we felt very alone. She heard a voice in her head that said the world would be ‘better’ without her,” she reported.
Until one day, the child tried to take his own life. “I was in total shock and completely destroyed,” her mother said. After that, Ava-Lilly started being evaluated by a therapist, who helped her get better. “The therapist was amazing. the family. She’s still shy, but she loves to do anything creative,” Sophie reported. The little girl is now a member of a mental health charity and uses her experience to help other victims of bullying.
How do you know if your child needs help?
Most of the time, children and teenagers show signs of their suffering. “The main thing is to change their usual behavior”, says pediatrician Rubens Cat, a professor at the Federal University of Paraná and head of the Department of Pediatrics at Hospital das Clínicas, in Curitiba (PR). The most important and prevalent changes are:
– depression;
– anguish;
– anxiety;
– post-traumatic stress;
– disinterest in hobbies;
– irritability;
– change of eating habits;
– sleep disorders;
– too much time inside the room.
According to Robert Paris, president of the Center for the Enhancement of Life (CVV), another sign is the change in the way people dress. “Children always show signs that something is not going well. If they start to wear long clothes, with long sleeves, it can be a way to hide cuts and injuries. It is common for adults not to pay attention to their children’s emotional dilemmas because they think it is ‘child thing,” he warned.
Therefore, talking openly with your children and their level of understanding about all these issues is critical. “Parents must explain that this is something transitory, that it will pass, offer all kinds of support and help and show themselves as an unconditional partner. Trying to maintain emotional connections with family and friends is also important. Other important tips are to hide weapons of fire (50% of suicide cases in the United States occur with firearms), medication, sharp objects, alcohol and seek help from health professionals as soon as possible when noticing the changes”, concludes Rubens Cat.

Anyone looking for a skateboard game is bound to find something that appeals to them. If you like it arcade, you can grab the terrific remake package Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2. Simulation fans get their money’s worth in Skater XL and Session. And if you are looking for something abstract, you will be happy with OlliOlli or Skate City.
All of these titles have one thing in common: even if there may be elements of vert-skating in them, their focus is mostly on street. Games with a higher proportion of simulations in particular often offer deeper gameplay in the area of flips and grinds.
The Ramp offers a different approach: there are only halfpipes, bowls and ramps.
That is also the focus of Red Bull Roller Coaster – A special skateboard event that is all about crazy ramps, banks and verts.
Minimalist action on maximum verts
If you expect a game with the depth of Tony Hawk or Skater XL at The Ramp, you will be disappointed. Both the gameplay and the presentation of the title are extremely minimalistic. That doesn’t mean that the game isn’t fun, nor that it looks bad.
The special thing about The Ramp is that it specializes in one aspect of vert driving that other titles tend to ignore: pumping. While you normally use your foot to pick up speed on flat ground, you can use physics in halfpipes to build up speed: To do this, you shift your weight down when descending the ramp and reduce it when going up the ramp. In this way you can not only keep your pace, but also increase it.
Pumping can be used to record a trip in one vert
© Hyperparadise
And that is exactly the central mechanics of The Ramp. By pressing a button, you have to shift your weight at the right moment in order to build up enough momentum to master the different verts. If you then take off, you can perform spins, grabs and grinds with simple key combinations. Here, too, you are much more limited than in similar titles in the genre. However, The Ramp does not want to be a game in which you invest hours of continuous playing time. It is presented as a short snack. You start it, get straight into the action and pick up your vert fix.
Jump up to get down
Any skater who likes to ride vert knows that tricks are only part of the fun that can be had on a ramp. Especially in bowls, the “cruising” aspect is an integral part of enjoying the sport. Together with the chilled lo-fi beats in the background, you can enjoy this part of the hobby in The Ramp in a particularly relaxed manner. The rhythmic pumping quickly creates a gameplay flow that lets you switch off completely.
Bowls are perfect for cruising in them
© Hyperparadise
It helps that The Ramp is not particularly difficult. Falls are rare and get back on your board immediately. But there are also no direct goals. The title is not a pulse-pumping combo game. It really just serves to enjoy the ride.
The aforementioned soundtrack does its best not to distract you. The beats run subtly in the background and underpin the typical sounds of the roles on the wood of a ramp or concrete of a bowl. Here, too, the rhythmic clacking of the board feeds into the relaxing mood of The Ramp.
Before you dive into the verts of The Ramp, you should know what to expect in terms of content. Not much. But that’s not necessary for this price. The title is minimalist in gameplay and optics. Perfect to switch off for a moment and enjoy the sport in a digital way.
The Ramp is currently only available for PC. It’s a shame. The game would probably have felt particularly comfortable on mobile platforms such as smartphones and the Nintendo Switch. A short bowl session while waiting for the bus or standing at the supermarket checkout would be even better. Perhaps the title will find its way onto one of these devices in the future.
If the minimalist design appeals to you, or if you want to play a skate game that focuses on verts and bowls, you can’t go wrong with The Ramp. The title is cheap, entertaining, but in return does not offer very deep gameplay and little content. However, those who are aware of this will not be disappointed.

Just below we have prepared an extensive gallery with some of the photos in which he embodies the android of Dr. Gero. Not only can we appreciate the android with great fidelity to the original, but monster is animated with 18 different outfits, nailed to the ones he wore during the series. How about? Let it tremble Krilín!
As the great professional that she is, monster not only delights us with characters like A-18, but also animates herself with other manganime works that, curiously now, are on everyone’s lips. Shall we get on the EVA 00?
Yes, monster also dares with Rei Ayanami, specifically, with the version of the character that we have seen in the last feature film, Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time, recently released in Amazon Prime Video and that it is reaping great success. What do you think of the result?
If you are enjoying all this that you are seeing, by the way we recommend the monster social networks, because in them you will find much more photographic material. You can follow this intrepid Japanese woman both on Instagram and on Twitter!

What does your rapper do in his spare time?
Many rappers have long, exhausting and very demanding work hours. A rapper’s routine involves writing and recording songs, great shows and engaging with fans and the press, and there’s usually little time left to spend on yourself.
Still, some rappers manage to allocate part of their routine to sports, hobbies and even other professions and here it will be possible to discover what some of the most famous rappers in the world do in their free time.
Many rappers have sports-related hobbies
Algernod Lanier Washington, better known by his stage name Plies, is the author of hits such as “Hypnotized” and “Shawty. The rapper has always had athletic inclinations and was linked to American football from an early age.
Plies’ sporting performance as a wide receiver in the oval ball sport was such that he even won a scholarship to Miami University to play on the college football team.
His tenure on the team lasted two years and he posted good numbers during the period, with 5 catches for 69 yards in 1995 and an impressive 25 catches for 262 yards and two touchdowns in 1996.
He eventually applied for a transfer to the University of Central Florida and also played football there, but Plies’ path was linked to rap and he eventually dropped out of college to pursue that career.
Rapper Cornell Iral Haynes Jr., best known as Nelly, rose to stardom with his album “Country Grammar”. In addition to being a very popular rapper at the time, he also had brief stints as an actor and is a great Texas Hold’em poker player.
Nelly has been playing for over a decade and is an avid poker competitor who has participated in numerous competitions over the years. There are several occasions that can be mentioned, but the one that stands out the most is your participation in the main event of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in 2007.
The WSOP is one of the biggest poker events in the world and brings together professional competitors from all corners of the planet, so the fact that Nelly didn’t even make it this far shows how dedicated the rapper was to the sport of cards.
Video games and even other professions also appear
Mainly famous for the song “Milkshake”, which has continued on the hit charts since its release in 2003, rapper Kelis Rogers also draws attention for her commitment and dedication to her free time.
While maintaining a successful rap career, the artist managed to train as a chef at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu culinary academy in 2010 and in the same year she teamed up with Lauren Pesavento to launch a joint cookbook.
In 2013 the chef launched her own line of sauces and over the last decade she has served as host of two different cooking shows focused on presenting her delicious recipes.
Of course, a lot of rappers are video game fans, but there is one that really draws attention to your love for them during your free time. Tracy Marrow, better known by the name Ice-T, is an avowed fan of electronic entertainment and has talked about his gambling habit in numerous interviews over the years.
Ice-T’s relationship with games goes back a long way, and he has said that the fact that they emerged at the same time as rap and hip-hop made him fall in love with both at the same time.
The rapper revealed that during his childhood he had some of the first game systems, like Atari and Sega, and liked classics like “Space Invaders” and “Sonic”, but currently one of his favorite games is “Call of Duty”.
It’s worth mentioning that Ice-T has also directed a documentary and has a successful career in several productions, which includes a recurring role in the series “Law & Order” and “Law & Order: SVU” as detective Odafin “Fin” Tutuola .
In fact, with 456 episodes, Ice-T is the second actor who most appears during SVU, second only to Olivia Benson, who plays detective and eventually captain Mariska Hargitay.

Sega celebrates the 30th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog with a concert, new video games and crossovers, merchandising, film and TV projects … Join the party!
Sonic the Hedgehog He is one of the most endearing characters in the history of video games, and in 2021 he is having the summer of his life celebrating his 30 years. Was a June 23, 1991 when the cartridge was released on Mega Drive, a game that skyrocketed the popularity of Sega consoles around the world, rivaling Nintendo and its plumber and creating one of the most prolific and recognizable franchises still in operation.
Sega has not overlooked the date, and has offered many proposals to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Sonic: merchandising, music, tributes, animation and of course, video games. Here you will find everything that the anniversary has given of itself!
30th anniversary concert
On the same day of the anniversary, June 23, Sega surprised by broadcasting a concert of about two hours with a selection of music from the entire saga. The Sonic Symphony, with the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, is a tour that includes music from all eras, from Sonic the Hedgehog, Game Gear or Saturn games, to modern games like Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Lost World or Sonic Forces.
As of this writing, you already have two million views and almost 135,000 “likes”: a success that the fans have loved, and that you can listen to here … over and over and over again.
Future videogames
What would a Sonic celebration be without video games? In May, Sega aired the Sonic Central presentation, with several interesting announcements. The Team Sonic team is already working on a completely new installment, without a title at the moment and scheduled for 2022 … although according to leaks, it seems that it will be called Sonic Rangers, it would adopt an open world style, and it would be very revolutionary.
A new compilation of classic Sonic games will also be released in 2022. We don’t know many details, but we do know that it will include more games than ever: Sonic the Hedgehog 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles y Sonic CD.
Sonic Colours Ultimate
Just around the corner is the remastering of one of Sonic’s best modern adventures. In 2010, it came out on Wii Sonic Colors, a 3D platformer (and with 2D sections) set in an amusement park in space, with some of the most beautiful levels of any Sonic game, and with the introduction of the Wisps, which gave the hedgehog new and versatile abilities.
Sonic Colours Ultimate will revamp the graphics for all current platforms, in addition to adding a new Wisp and a Rival Rush mode with races against Metal Sonic. You will play it from September 7, 2021 on PS5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC, and here you can read a preview where we tell you why it is so special.
What are the best Sonic games ever?
Crossovers
Sonic Colors Ultimate is not the only video game that Sonic has appeared in this year. The hedgehog and his friends have been “on tour” for many other titles, with fun collaborations:
Animation series
As part of the promotion for Sonic Colors Ultimate, Sega has released a two episode web series call Sonic Colours: Rise of the Wisps. Watch the first episode here, in which Sonic and Tails team up with a lonely Jade Wips, who narrowly escapes the deceptive Sweet Mountain attraction of Dr. Eggman’s interstellar amusement park.
The future, however, looks even more exciting, because in 2022 it will be released Sonic Prime, a new animated series from Netflix in which they will enter nothing less than the multiverses.
It promises to be one more series for all audiences than the latest series, more childish, based on Sonic Boom.
Merchandising
A host of new products have been created for the anniversary: JAKKS Pacific Giant Eggman Robot set; new Sonic encyclopedia, hardcover, edited by Dark Horse; a new 80-page, oversized comic from IDW; and commemorative gold and silver APMEX coins …
In the Sonic 30th anniversary website you will find links to all these products.
LEGO Sonic
We took Sonic’s LEGO from the merchandising review because it deserves separate attention. This incredible set with Sonic, the Green Hill stage and the Death Egg Robot from Sonic 2 has been one of the winning projects this year in LEGO Ideas– that is, fan-created projects that, driven by community votes, are selected by the LEGO jury to bring them to life.
As it is a project that has been approved this year, it will now go through a phase of retouching by LEGO itself, so there could be changes, but it is already completely certain that this LEGO Sonic set will be real, and should hit toy stores in 2022. Although LEGO fans will remember that this is not the first time that Sonic has been “legitimized”, as he already had a playable expansion set in LEGO Dimensions …
The 30th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog according to Bruno Sol
Sonic: The Movie 2
The first Sonic movie, despite its delay in changing the design of the hedgehog, had the immense luck of be the last big blockbuster that went through theaters before the Covid-19 pandemic broke out worldwide, as it came out in February 2020.
While other films, such as 007 No Time to Die, which was coming out almost at the same time as Sonic’s, have accumulated delay after delay and have yet to be seen, Sonic’s was a box office success (319 million dollars with a budget of 90) and criticism (63% on Rotten Tomatoes, 93% according to the public) and secured a sequel due out in April 2022.
The latest news is that Idris Elba would voice Knuckles, and the entire team of the first one would repeat: Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik (who raffled a car among the entire team), the direction of Jeff Fowler, Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic and James Marsden and Tika Sumpter as human protagonists.

To gallop across the meadows like Mika on an easterly wind or jump over the moat like Bibi and Tina – that’s the dream of many young girls and also some boys and adults. But to get across the ditch safely in the saddle, you need solid riding training. Unfortunately, the demand in Mecklenburg far exceeds the supply. “I have people at my door every week who want to learn to ride,” reports Tina Morsch from the “Icelandic Horses in Northwest Mecklenburg” farm in Alt-Meteln. She has to send them all away without a specific recommendation, because, according to the trainer: “I only train horses and their owners, but not riding students”.
That is why the OZ has researched where you can learn to ride in our region even without your own horse, a riding lesson is available from around 20 euros and up:
The Eggerstorf riding school at the Keller Zuchthof in Zierow has been offering riding lessons every weekday afternoon since this summer – both in fixed groups with three riders and by appointment. After a few years without a riding school, Ute Keller dared to make a fresh start: “We look forward to girls and boys and of course also sporty adults who want to learn to ride with us,” she says invitingly.
The perfect starting age at six or seven
“6 or 7 years is the ideal starting age for children.” A special highlight in Eggerstorf: rides on the nearby beach are possible all year round.
Eight volunteer riding instructors are currently fulfilling the dream of learning to ride for a total of 65 children at Reitfreunde in Börzow. The association in the municipality of Stepenitztal receives at least two inquiries a week. Unfortunately the waiting list is long here. “With money for full-time staff to care for the animals and to teach, significantly more children could learn to ride with us,” explains the chairwoman of the association, Sabine Dörre-Brunner.
The contact with the horses is so good for the children
Social learning is in the foreground in Börzow. “No stress, no pressure to perform, respectful treatment of people, animals and material” is the guiding principle. “Sporting success is irrelevant for us,” explains the riding instructor. “The contact with our ponies and horses is so good for the children,” she enthuses. But keeping the 15 animals costs a lot of money. That is why a different kind of support is necessary in equestrian sport than in other sports. “Then lower-income families could also afford to give their children the opportunity to go horse riding.”
The interest is great
It has been possible to learn to ride at the Rudolph riding stables in Oberhof since 1992. “There is great interest, we cannot accept everyone who inquires,” says Frank Rudolph. The work with the riding students is demanding for the teacher and the horses. “The horses also have to be able to adjust to a new rider every time,” explains the master horse manager.
The Schulz family’s Neuhof stud on the island of Poel offers lessons for children and adults three times a week. Returners are also very welcome here. As at all other riding stables, advance registration is urgently required in Neuhof.
At the Carolinenhof in Pogez near Carlow, FN riding instructor Maria Bathmann offers lessons for adults and children from 6 years on seven school horses. “The demand is huge,” reports Maria Bathmann. “I wish there would be more qualified riding lessons in the region,” emphasizes the professional riding instructor. “It is so important that the children learn everything correctly right from the start, so that the horse does not even get used to a faulty seat or the wrong aids. “It’s hard to iron that out afterwards.” The safety of horse and rider is also important. “I am very grateful for our absolutely super-brave school horses, which the children carry safely through every riding lesson.”
Partnership with the horse
The Schwalbenhof in Thandorf places the “partnership with the horse and the personal development of the children” in the foreground. Here the children get a solid training in recreational riding. The farm also offers a holiday program and children’s birthdays.
The riders that show jumping rider Frank Breiser trains in dressage and jumping at the Makowei Zuchthof are often more ambitious. The motto in Gadebusch: “We not only train young horses well, but also bring young riders to tournament maturity.”
André Plath on the island of Poel promises: “We have the right solution for every need: learn to ride, improve skills through qualified riding lessons or enable the children to take their first riding lessons.” From the restaurant, parents can even watch the children as they take riding lessons .
The Biestow foal farm in Rostock’s Südstadt was built in the 1960s as a branch of the Rostock Zoo. Today, in addition to classic riding lessons, there is a Shetty school for children from four years of age.
Riding is the trend sport for girls
Tino Leipold from the Bernsteinreitern in Hirschburg and Barth reports: “Riding is the trend sport, especially among girls”. The Bernsteinreiter has 300 members, and the number is rising. Many parents appreciate the interaction with animals and the experience of nature for their children. “Riding is a sport for all the senses,” said the club’s chairman. With weekly lessons, however, it takes a few years before you can jump over the moat like Bibi and Tina.
At the Stuthof on the edge of the Rostocker Heide, even disabled people have the opportunity of special training. There they know: “Dealing with horses can help you in your therapy and is otherwise a lot of fun.”
The Reitcamp Börgerende refers to the tradition of horsemanship already in antiquity: “With a light hand you teach the horse to work, to carry your neck, to lower your head …”, said the Greek philosopher Xenophon in 400 BC. Have known. Today you can learn both classic and western riding on the modern riding facility.
At “Ontario and Friends’s”, Sandra Rückert’s association in Lambrechtshagen, even the youngest children from the age of two learn how to “deal sensibly and respectfully” with animals.
No sleeping in when working with animals
While there are no youngsters worries among the riding students, it is sometimes not easy for the riding stables when a successor is sought for reasons of age. “When you work with animals, you can’t sleep in, not even at Christmas,” reports Patricia von Mirbach from the Böldt horse farm in Kühlungsborn. In the past, the riding students could have helped more, but now the school is long and the number of other hobbies is large. “The kids have so much on their minds,” she notes.
Life is (not) a pony farm
The following message is important to all riding schools: “Anyone who wants to learn to ride should make it clear in advance that this sport is more than just being carried by the horse.” Or, as you know at the Carbäck Ranch in Bentwisch: “Life is (not) a pony farm”.

André Plath on the island of Poel promises: “We have the right solution for every need: learn to ride, improve skills through qualified riding lessons or enable the children to take their first riding lessons.” From the restaurant, parents can even watch the children as they take riding lessons .
The Biestow foal farm in Rostock’s Südstadt was built in the 1960s as a branch of the Rostock Zoo. Today, in addition to classic riding lessons, there is a Shetty school for children from four years of age.
Riding is the trend sport for girls
Tino Leipold from the Bernsteinreitern in Hirschburg and Barth reports: “Riding is the trend sport, especially among girls”. The Bernsteinreiter has 300 members, and the number is rising. Many parents appreciate the interaction with animals and the experience of nature for their children. “Riding is a sport for all the senses,” said the club’s chairman. With weekly lessons, however, it takes a few years before you can jump over the moat like Bibi and Tina.
At the Stuthof on the edge of the Rostocker Heide, even disabled people have the opportunity of special training. There they know: “Dealing with horses can help you in your therapy and is otherwise a lot of fun.”
The Reitcamp Börgerende refers to the tradition of horsemanship already in antiquity: “With a light hand you teach the horse to work, to carry your neck, to lower your head …”, said the Greek philosopher Xenophon in 400 BC. Have known. Today you can learn both classic and western riding on the modern riding facility.
At “Ontario and Friends’s”, Sandra Rückert’s association in Lambrechtshagen, even the youngest children from the age of two learn how to “deal sensibly and respectfully” with animals.
No sleeping in when working with animals
While there are no youngsters worries among the riding students, it is sometimes not easy for the riding stables when a successor is sought for reasons of age. “When you work with animals, you can’t sleep in, not even at Christmas,” reports Patricia von Mirbach from the Böldt horse farm in Kühlungsborn. In the past, the riding students could have helped more, but now the school is long and the number of other hobbies is large. “The kids have so much on their minds,” she notes.
Life is (not) a pony farm
The following message is important to all riding schools: “Anyone who wants to learn to ride should make it clear in advance that this sport is more than just being carried by the horse.” Or, as you know at the Carbäck Ranch in Bentwisch: “Life is (not) a pony farm”.

Munich – They have been pretty good friends for almost ten years: TV star Francis Fulton-Smith (55, “The Spiegel Affair”) and Bavarian Justice Minister Georg Eisenreich (50, CSU).
In the BILD interview, the buddies talk about gender madness, politics and the rock band AC / DC.
BILD: Mr. Eisenreich, do you have a favorite Francis series?
Georg Eisenreich: “I don’t watch TV that much. I beg your pardon (laughs). But of course I saw Francis as Franz-Josef Strauss in the Spiegel Affair. He was great there. “
BILD: Francis, what do you like about Georg Eisenreich?
Francis Fulton-Smith: “I found him likeable from the start. He is one of the few politicians who can speak freely and does not have to read everything. And: He has had a great career and is still a relaxed person. “
Eisenreich: “Francis is incredibly entertaining, but also has a lot of depth. He is an avowed Bavarian and born in Munich. It just fits between us. “
BILD: Do you make calls every day?
Fulton-Smith: “No, then we would be married.”
BILD: Do you have common hobbies?
Eisenreich: “Eat.”

Fulton-Smith: “I really enjoy cooking. We just complement each other. We are both Bayern fans, of course. “
Eisenreich: “And we both love AC / DC.”
BILD: And both the CSU?
Fulton-Smith: “Tradition is not about picking up the ashes, it is about keeping the fire. I feel that I am in the best of hands with the values of the CSU and the culture of discussion, and conservative parties are better for art and culture. “
Eisenreich: “For me, the CSU is the ideal combination of tradition and progress. We are a modern people’s party, close to the people. “
BILD: Nevertheless, the current polls from the CDU / CSU are pretty lousy. Does Söder have to do it after all?
Eisenreich: “The choice of the candidate for Chancellor was made a few weeks ago – for Armin Laschet. We have to convince people, we still have a long way to go. But we will still make significant gains. “
BILD: Does a politician have to be a good actor?
Eisenreich: “I have a very clear opinion on that. Politics is not a game. Unfortunately there are some players and actors in politics – and I don’t like them all. “
Coffee break: Eisenreich and Fulton-Smith with Hofbräukeller landlady Silja Steinberg
BILD: What do you think of the gender craze. ZDF recently changed “Islamists” …
Fulton-Smith: “I find that really embarrassing. There is a limit of shame to absurdity – it has been blatantly reached here. “
Eisenreich: “Equality is also important in language. But if it’s overdone, it annoys and divides society. The example mentioned is completely wrong. “
BILD: What wish do you want to fulfill this year?
Eisenreich: “I wrote a cabaret piece about a hut evening.”
Fulton-Smith: “We will perform the piece privately in a mountain hut. We’re still looking for the mountain. “
