Podcasts about Chiara

Kim-Eva Wempe hat aus dem Familienunternehmen die größte Juwelier-Kette Deutschlands gemacht. Unter ihrer Führung vervierfachte sich der Umsatz und man wurde vom reinen Händler zum Hersteller. Nun ist mit Chiara Wempe auch die fünfte Generation ins Unternehmen eingestiegen. Im OMR Podcast sprechen Mutter und Tochter über die Vorbereitung dieses Schritts, ihre Filialen von Sylt bis zum Frankfurter Flughafen und die Bereiche, in denen sie komplett anderer Meinung sind. Sie verraten außerdem, warum es keine Wempe-Filiale in Dubai gibt, wie sie reagiert haben, als ein Cyberangriff das Unternehmen lahmgelegt hat – und warum einem Mitglied der Band "Red Hot Chili Peppers" mal der Einlass verwehrt wurde.

Ein queerer Mann, der seiner Zeit voraus war. Eine Stadt, die wegsah. Und eine Journalistin, die 35 Jahre später versucht, Antworten zu finden.1990 wird der 28-jährige Rafael Blumenstock mitten in Ulm brutal ermordet – nur wenige Schritte vom Polizeipräsidium entfernt. Rafael war in Ulm kein Unbekannter: Er war bunt, laut, anders. Er trug Lippenstift, Handtasche, lange Kleider – und wurde damit für viele zur Provokation. Der Fall ist bis heute ungeklärt.Chiara Battaglia, Journalistin und Host des neuen SWR-True-Crime-Podcasts „Der Schrei – Der rätselhafte Fall Rafael Blumenstock“, hat versucht, das Schweigen zu brechen. Sie spricht mit Zeitzeug:innen, Polizist:innen und Menschen, die Rafael kannten – und stellt die Frage: Wurde Rafael ermordet, weil er queer war?In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Chiara über die Recherchen zu diesem Fall, über das Ulm der 80er, queere Sichtbarkeit damals und heute – und darüber, warum „Der Schrei“ mehr ist als ein True-Crime-Podcast. Es ist ein Stück queere Geschichte. Und ein Versuch, einer Stimme Gehör zu verschaffen, die viel zu früh verstummt ist.Wenn ihr Hinweise zum Fall habt: Telefon: 0711 / 929 11711Mail: podcasts@swr.de Hosted on Acast.

Marianna e Chiara si incontrano alle elementari e si riconoscono, capendo di custodire lo stesso segreto: la violenza che vivono a casa. Le loro famiglie sono diverse, ma in entrambe abita la paura. Il padre di Chiara picchia le figlie e la moglie. Quello di Marianna è un autolesionista. Nel suo ultimo romanzo, Antonella Lattanzi racconta l'amicizia come antidoto al terrore e come luogo di una luce che si può riaccendere anche dopo tanto tempo.

P. Federico (Guatemala)Jesús nos anima a estar vigilantes. No es una vigilancia que pesa, porque es esperar al Amigo[Ver Meditación Escrita] https://www.hablarconjesus.com/meditacion_escrita/vigilante/

Host Radell Lewis breaks down every candidate running for Ohio Governor in 2026, cutting through the noise to give you the facts that matter. What You'll Learn: Vivek Ramaswamy (Republican) is proposing to eliminate Ohio's state income tax and lower property taxes to reverse the exodus of young Ohioans. He's pushing for increased energy production through fracking and nuclear plants, K-12 education improvements, tougher penalties for repeat criminal offenders (including psychiatric institutionalization), and promises to restore "open dialogue" in Ohio politics. Philip Funderburg (Republican) is a 10th-generation Ohioan and insurance agent from Englewood running on a deportation-focused platform. He's targeting "anchor babies, Haitians, and illegals" in his campaign messaging and frequently posts about Ramaswamy. While aligned with Trump's agenda, Funderburg wants to release the Epstein files. Jacob Chiara (Democrat) is a former Republican now running as a Democrat because he says the GOP "no longer exists" as he knew it. His platform includes boosting small businesses, fully funding public schools, expanding healthcare access, ending pay-to-play politics, and investing in crime prevention. Chiara criticizes both Ramaswamy and Acton, positioning himself as an outsider tired of "politics as usual." Dr. Amy Acton (Democrat), Ohio's former health director, is prioritizing lowering everyday costs for Ohioans including groceries, gas, healthcare, and energy bills. She's committed to fully funding public schools, strengthening Ohio's economy, improving public safety, and addressing corruption in the Statehouse that she says "caters to billionaires and special interests."

Queens without a Kingdom worth Ruling: Buddhist Nuns and the Process of Change in Tibetan Monastic Communities is a fascinating study of nuns in the Tibetan Buddhist nunnery of Khachoe Ghakyil Ling in Kathmandu. Written by Dr. Chandra Chiara Ehm, who was a member of this monastic community for nearly a decade, it offers a rare perspective on life in a nunnery. The book explores nuns' lives, their studies, and their and aspirations--we see how young girls and women become nuns, what a day in the life is like, and how their scholastic study is structured, as well as some of the obstacles that the nuns much navigate. It also explores how recent changes in technology, demographics, and secular education are continuing to transform monastic life. This book is a rich and extremely readable blend of ethnographic detail, historical and textual background, and incisive analysis. It would make an excellent contribution to any syllabus on Tibetan Buddhism, women in Buddhism, or Buddhism and modernity. The author, Chandra Chiara Ehm, is a postdoctoral researcher at the the Ecole Francaise d'Èxreme Orient (EFEO) and the Centre de Recherche sur les Civilisations de l'Asie Orientale (CRCAO). She received her PhD in a double degree program in Buddhist Studies at the LMU in Munich and in anthropology at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in Paris . She employs multiple academic methods--notably both philology and qualitative ethnographic work. Learn more about your ad choices.

From moonlit forests in Sweden to bat-friendly corridors in urban parks, Chiara shares her vision for lighting that respects biodiversity, supports human well-being, and treats darkness as a civic asset—not a void.

Nella luce morbida dell'autunno, la Fontana di Trevi brillava con un incanto speciale.En: In the gentle autumn light, the Fontana di Trevi shone with a special enchantment.It: Un vento leggero sollevava le foglie dorate lungo il marciapiede, mentre turisti lanciavano monetine nella fontana, ognuno con un desiderio nel cuore.En: A light breeze lifted the golden leaves along the sidewalk, while tourists tossed coins into the fountain, each with a wish in their heart.It: Tra la folla, Marco aspettava nervosamente, i suoi occhi fissi sull'acqua scintillante.En: Among the crowd, Marco waited nervously, his eyes fixed on the shimmering water.It: Pensava alla proposta che aveva fatto a Chiara proprio lì, anni fa.En: He thought about the proposal he had made to Chiara right there, years ago.It: Chiara arrivò poco dopo.En: Chiara arrived shortly after.It: Il suo sorriso era incerto, i suoi occhi riflettevano la bellezza del luogo e la gravità della situazione.En: Her smile was uncertain, her eyes reflecting the beauty of the place and the gravity of the situation.It: La loro relazione a distanza aveva perso la sua magia, complici le migliaia di chilometri tra loro.En: Their long-distance relationship had lost its magic, aided by the thousands of kilometers between them.It: Marco voleva fare qualcosa per cambiarlo.En: Marco wanted to do something to change that.It: "Chiara," iniziò Marco con voce tremante, "questo posto è speciale per noi.En: "Chiara," began Marco with a trembling voice, "this place is special for us.It: Voglio ricordarti quanto ci amiamo."En: I want to remind you how much we love each other."It: Chiara ascoltava in silenzio, il suono della fontana e la voce di Marco mescolavano i suoi pensieri.En: Chiara listened silently, the sound of the fountain and Marco's voice blending her thoughts.It: Elena, la sorella di Marco, si avvicinò.En: Elena, Marco's sister, approached.It: Era venuta per sostenere entrambi.En: She had come to support them both.It: "Chiara, Marco è stato qui tutto il giorno a preparare questo momento.En: "Chiara, Marco has been here all day preparing for this moment.It: Vuole che tu sappia quanto tieni a lui," disse, sperando di fare da ponte tra i desideri di Marco e i dubbi di Chiara.En: He wants you to know how much you mean to him," she said, hoping to bridge the gap between Marco's desires and Chiara's doubts.It: "Marco," rispose Chiara, "non sono sicura.En: "Marco," replied Chiara, "I'm not sure.It: La distanza è difficile.En: The distance is difficult.It: Non è semplice lasciare tutto alle spalle."En: It's not easy to leave everything behind."It: Marco guardò Chiara negli occhi.En: Marco looked into Chiara's eyes.It: "Non voglio perderti.En: "I don't want to lose you.It: Credo che possiamo farcela, insieme, con pazienza e amore."En: I believe we can make it, together, with patience and love."It: Poi Marco fece un passo avanti, prese una moneta e la lanciò nella fontana con un sorriso speranzoso.En: Then Marco took a step forward, picked up a coin, and tossed it into the fountain with a hopeful smile.It: "Ho fatto un desiderio.En: "I made a wish.It: E spero che lo farai anche tu."En: And I hope you will too."It: Chiara sospirò, guardò la fontana e poi Marco.En: Chiara sighed, looked at the fountain, and then at Marco.It: In quel momento, ricordò tutte le risate, le avventure e i sogni che avevano condiviso.En: At that moment, she remembered all the laughter, adventures, and dreams they had shared.It: Senza una parola, prese una moneta dalla tasca.En: Without a word, she took a coin from her pocket.It: Guardò Marco, poi il cielo rossastro dell'autunno.En: She looked at Marco, then at the reddish autumn sky.It: Chiara chiuse gli occhi e lanciò la moneta nell'acqua.En: Chiara closed her eyes and tossed the coin into the water.It: Un sorriso leggero apparve sul viso di Marco mentre Chiara lo abbracciava lentamente.En: A light smile appeared on Marco's face as Chiara slowly embraced him.It: "Lo farò.En: "I will.It: Voglio provare ancora," disse lei, le emozioni che le rigavano il volto.En: I want to try again," she said, emotions streaming down her face.It: La Fontana di Trevi continuava a brillare, testimone di un nuovo inizio.En: The Fontana di Trevi continued to shine, witnessing a new beginning.It: Entrambi sentivano che mentre l'amore poteva sfidare la distanza, erano la comprensione e l'ascolto a mantenerlo vivo.En: Both felt that while love could challenge distance, it was understanding and listening that kept it alive.It: Mentre si allontanavano tenendosi per mano, Elena li guardò andare via, contenta del loro ritrovato passo avanti.En: As they walked away holding hands, Elena watched them go, happy for their newfound step forward.It: E così, l'autunno alla Fontana di Trevi diventò il simbolo di speranza e ricordi riaccesi, promettendo che l'amore, con la sua forza, può superare qualsiasi distanza.En: And so, autumn at the Fontana di Trevi became a symbol of hope and rekindled memories, promising that love, with its strength, can overcome any distance.
