Die neue Tramlinie soll den stark wachsenden Kreis 11 entlasten, da es 50 Prozent mehr Kapazität als die Busse biete.

Über 59 Prozent der Stadtzürcher Stimmberechtigten lehnten die Initiative ab, die sich gegen den Parkplatzabbau richtete. · Winterthur: Die Stimmberechtigten haben einen Kredit von 6,9 Millionen Franken für einen Neubau des Campingplatzes am Schützenweiher abgelehnt. 53,2 Prozent stimmten gegen die Vorlage und fast alle Stadtkreise lehnten sie ab. · Das Stadtparlament in Zürich wird neu die Taxen der städtischen Altersheime festlegen und nicht mehr die Stadtregierung: Die Stimmberechtigten stimmten mit 52,6 Prozent dieser Änderung zu. · Die Stadt Zürich kann ihr Fernwärmenetz weiter ausbauen: Die Stimmberechtigten haben den Kredit von 2,26 Milliarden Franken mit 80,7 Prozent gutgeheissen und damit den grössten Rahmenkredit in der Stadtgeschichte bewilligt. · Feministischer Streiktag in Zürich: Laut eigenen Angaben sind am Sonntagabend 60'000 Personen durch die Stadt gezogen und haben am Demonstrationsumzug auf unbezahlte «Care-Arbeit» (Pflege, Sorge und Hausarbeit) aufmerksam gemacht.

Alex Bowcut is from Salt Lake City, Utah originally, but has been in the Bay Area for the last 4 years. He's always been interested in computers, and was in middle school when smartphones were blooming. He took part in jailbreaking gadgets and such, and all of these things led to a natural interest in CS, mathematics - and eventually, startups. Outside of tech, he is married with 2 Australian shepherds. He and his wife enjoy hiking with the dogs, and skiing - unfortunately, without the dogs.Alex was approached by the founder of his current venture. He was approached while he was working at another startup, to tackle the creation of AI control and scaling within the company internally. When he joined, he immediately started changing the game in creating the initial version of their assessment model, TRAM.This is Alex's creation story at Sphere.SponsorsUnblockedTECH DomainsMezmoBraingrid.aiLinkshttps://www.getsphere.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/abowcut/Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.

Zwei Menschen umkreisen sich, interessieren sich füreinander. Sie kommen ins Gespräch, stossen sich ab, nähern sich an, brechen ihre Panzer gegenseitig auf. Vertrautheit entsteht trotz Unverständnis. Dass es sich um zwei Männer handelt, spielt keine Rolle. Oder doch? Wer das Hörspiel am Radio hören will: Freitag, 22.05.2026, 20.00 Uhr, Radio SRF 1 Zwei Männer begegnen sich immer wieder durch Zufall – im Café, im Tram, auf der Strasse oder vor dem Pissoir. Sie spüren auf Anhieb Sympathie, kommen ins Gespräch. Zufällig erfährt der eine, der andere sei homosexuell. Und schon beginnt der Teufelskreis der Ängste, Verdächtigungen und Rückzüge, aber auch der Neugier. Im Dialog zeigt sich: Die Klischees stimmen alle nicht. Der Homosexuelle ist nicht verführt worden, der Ehemann ist nicht unglücklich verheiratet, das Kind ist nicht nur Kompensation einer brüchig gewordenen Beziehung. Und immer wieder – und trotz alledem – blitzt der Wunsch auf, zusammen zu sein, den anderen zu verstehen und bei alledem die eigenen Grenzen gewahrt zu wissen. Weniger aus einem neurotischen Abgrenzungsbemühen heraus als vielmehr aus wachsender Achtung voreinander. ____________________ Mit: Peter Holliger (Mann A), Hans Schenker (Mann B) ____________________ Übersetzung ins Zürichdeutsche: Katja Früh – Tontechnik: Ernst Neukomm und Ruth Pierrehumbert – Regie: Claude Pierre Salmony ____________________ Produktion: SRF 1983 ____________________ Dauer: 43'

Heute fährt die Tram bis nach... Black Mesa! Sebastian und Jochen haben sich ein Ticket für die vielleicht berühmteste Bahnfahrt der Videospielgeschichte gezogen und sind gemeinsam mit Gordon Freeman zu spät zur Arbeit gefahren. Einmal im originalen Half-Life 1 von 1998 und dann nochmal in der Fan-Hommage Black Mesa. Wird sich das anfühlen wie der Tag des Murmeltiers und alles ist absolut gleich? Oder finden sich bei der gleichen Bahnfahrt doch genügend Unterschiede, um nicht erst am Zielbahnhof wieder aufzuwachen? Steigt ein und findet es mit uns heraus!

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

"I listened to the file once and very quickly I was drawn into the journey. I tried to give "shape," or rather "sound," to what the voices and noises of the tram produced, what they triggered within me. I followed the rhythm; an imaginary flow, somewhat haunted or at least inhabited, took shape along the length of the original file."Oslo tram ride reimagined by Philippe Neau.

Comenzamos con los tres discos favoritos de Mundofonías de abril del 2016, con los franceses Tram, el senegalés Solo Cissokho y su disco póstumo, y la recopilación "Indian talking machine part two: instrumental gems from the 78rpm era". Al hilo de este último recopilatorio, recuperamos algunas sorprendentes piezas de la primera entrega de la serie, para seguir con aires orientales que nos traen brisas musicales persas, árabes y otomanas, estas últimas, entreveradas con sonoridades barrocas, para terminar con una contundente entrega musical desde Hungría. We begin with the three favorite albums of Mundofonías for April 2016, featuring the French band Tram, the Senegalese Solo Cissokho and his posthumous album, and the compilation "Indian Talking Machine Part Two: Instrumental Gems from the 78rpm Era". Following this last compilation, we revisit some surprising pieces from the first installment of the series, before continuing with Eastern influences that bring us Persian, Arabic and Ottoman musical breezes, the latter interwoven with Baroque sonorities, to conclude with a powerful musical delivery from Hungary.

Eisenbahnbrücke mit neuem Leben – Leipzig zeigt, wie's geht! Das 150 Jahre alte Sellerhäuser Viadukt wird gerade begrünt – bald führt dort ein Höhenweg entlang, perfekt zum Cornern und Radfahren. Wir, Daniel Heinze und Guido Corleone, freuen uns schon riesig auf die neue „Dschungelbrücke“ am Parkbogen Ost und reden drüber – in der neuen Folge von HELDENSTADT, dem Wohnzimmerpodcast der LVZ. Alles, was Leipzig bewegt, haben wir wieder für Euch in unsere kleine Show gepackt: Das „Hotel Seeblick“ macht dicht. Einfach nur schade, oder ein Zeichen fürs Kneipensterben in der Stadt? Das Stadtarchiv hat 35.000 historische Fotos online gestellt und das Interesse daran ist so groß, dass die Server in die Knie gehen. Und wer macht mit beim "Abpflastern", damit aus Betonwüsten wieder Wiesen werden? Außerdem: Warum lassen Straßenbahnen uns manchmal nicht mehr rein, obwohl wir eben noch würdelos zur Türe gesprintet sind? Jedenfalls nicht aus Boshaftigkeit, beteuern die LVB. Apropos ÖPNV: Kurzstrecke kostet bald 2,50 Euro! Pünktlich zum 1. August werden wieder die Tickets teurer. Ach ja, und in Anger-Crottendorf hat jemand ein Dixi-Klo gesprengt. In unseren Ausgehtipps („Be-Beat-and-Rhythm“) haben wir diesmal Marie Antoinette im Horns Erben, Luke Noa im Noels Ballroom, das Adele-Tribute im Kristallpalast und Lotte im Täubchenthal für Euch. 
Und zum Schluss werfen wir noch einen Blick auf Reddit: Was nervt die Leute an Leipzig? Wir liefern Euch ein Best Of der Debatte.

On this day, 12 March 1951, following a successful campaign against transport price rises, 300,000 workers took part in a general strike in Barcelona and nearby cities to protest against the right-wing dictatorship of general Francisco Franco. Despite the mobilisation of thousands of police and civil guards, the strikers held out for two weeks while the government, terrified of the prospect of further unrest, released the vast majority of those arrested and paid full wages to those workers who had been on strike. More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8417/barcelona-general-strikeOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

Berlin: Tram Or Maglev? A Real Debate

A strange transit showdown is brewing in Berlin: build a practical tram that stitches together everyday trips, or elevate a sleek maglev that sprints between a handful of stations. Louis spent the day on the ground from Spandau to the former Tegel Airport, walking the corridors, riding the buses, and mapping where people actually live, work, and wait. What he found is a city on the cusp of major growth with Urban Tech Republic rising at TXL and a vast new neighborhood at Gartenfeld, while current buses already strain under midday crowds.Politics heats the debate, CDU and AfD push maglev, while SPD, the Left, and Greens favor the tram. The tram comes in around €120 million with strong federal co-funding; the maglev is already spending €80 million on a study and test track, with line estimates of €300–500 million and fuzzier funding. We also revisit Berlin's brief M-Bahn maglev from 1989–91, and consider a gondola wildcard: useful in spots, but not a backbone for Spandau's all-day demand.If the story resonates, subscribe, share with a transit-minded friend, and leave a review—your support helps us bring more on-the-ground reporting to your feed.Send a textSupport the show
