Good evening,

What will be top news tomorrow late in the evening cannot be said at this point, but what one would be: She is closed with Eintracht Frankfurt and a possible win.

On Wednesday there was news that Darmstadt's mayor is not seeking another term.

The overview at the end of this day, as always with news from the region.

Perspective:

He recently turned sixty.

With this birthday, many decide to change something in their lives.

Perhaps Jochen Partsch did the same, perhaps his decision was already made beforehand, but he has in any case announced it now: The mayor of Darmstadt will not stand for re-election in March 2023, Darmstadt's Greens must look for a new candidate.

Partsch said on Wednesday that he was not tired of his job, but that everyone only has a limited lifetime, he wanted to devote himself to new tasks, his decision was solely for personal reasons.

The fact that his wife, the previous member of the Bundestag Daniela Wagner, was no longer able to get a seat in the Bundestag in the last federal election played no role in the decision, he also said.

partsch,

who was previously head of social affairs in Darmstadt, was elected mayor in 2011, at that time he was the first Green politician in Hesse to hold such a position.

Jochen Remmert comments on his upcoming retirement.

Foretaste of his conclusion: Partsch has chosen the right time.

Proudly:

You don't have to be a fervent football fan to be rooting for Eintracht as they attempt to win against West Ham United in Thursday night's Europa League semi-final and secure a place in the final.

Suffice it to imagine what such a game means for a club whose manager says it will be the greatest of his career.

A genuine Eintracht fan, dyed in the wool, so to speak, is the comedian, musician and actor Hendrik "Henni" Nachtsheim, founder of, among other things, "Badesalz", formerly the singer and saxophonist of the Rodgau Monotones.

About the joy and suffering of being a fan, about Eintracht and his best Eintracht moments ("Fred Schaub's 1-0 in the Uefa Cup final in 1980. Gacinovic's goal in the cup final against Bayern. The 5:

1 against Lautern in 1999 with the step-over from Fjörtoft (…)”)” Nachtsheim spoke to Daniel Schleidt.

You can read the interview in the Rhein-Main-Zeitung.

Creativity:

Where do writers get their material from, what well do they draw from when they write?

In retrospect, says Judith Hermann, she is often no longer sure which part of a story was made up and which wasn't.

And actually that doesn't matter.

The fact that the Berlin author, who was born in 1979 and became known in 1998 with "Sommerhaus, Later" in 1998, was not imagined, was in lecture hall 1 on the Westend campus of Frankfurt's Goethe University on Tuesday, the lecture hall was full.

This year Herrmann holds the poetics lectureship for the summer semester. She gives a total of three lectures and gives an insight into her work, under the title "We would have said everything to each other - about silence and concealment in writing".

Eva-Maria Magel was there for the first time and reported.

The next two dates: May 10th and 17th in Lecture Hall 1, at 6 p.m. ct On May 18th

And also

in Frankfurt, a 33-year-old man climbed unsecured on the facade of a more than 140 meter high office tower to the roof of this building;

he wanted to protest against the war in the Ukraine and is now facing proceedings for trespassing +++ SC Hessen Dreieich withdraws its team from the Hessen football league at the end of the season +++ becomes the Rhineland-Palatinate program to revitalize the inner cities , which previously only applied to so-called regional centers such as Mainz, has been expanded to around 80 municipalities. The state government is providing five million euros for this.

Frankfurt: construction work at the traffic junction Lyoner Strasse/Schwanheimer Ufer.

Lane closed towards town on Friday and Saturday


With the conversion of the traffic junction Lyoner Straße/Schwanheimer Ufer, barrier-free access to the banks of the Main will be created.

During the four-month construction period, one lane will remain open in each direction.

In order to lay empty pipes in the road surface, however, it is necessary to close the Schwanheimer Ufer lane towards the city center for one day.

The Office for Road Construction and Development (ASE) sets up this full closure on Friday, May 6, around 7 a.m. and lifts it again on Saturday, May 7, around 12 p.m.

Because of the work, the Schwanheimer Ufer in the city center will be completely closed.

It will be diverted via Lyoner Strasse, Adolf-Miersch-Strasse, Triftstrasse, Rennbahnstrasse and Deutschordenstrasse.

Lanes will be reduced out of town.

Pedestrians can pass the construction site.
