Die Teenie-Gang zerrte das junge Mädchen gegen 16 Uhr auf das Dach eines Wohnhauses in der Zeleborgasse
Dort hätten die brutalen Mädchen Maria sogar angedroht
Später sollen die drei Teenager Maria in eine Garage in der Rauchgasse gedrängt haben
Dort habe sich Furchtbares abgespielt: Die Tatverdächtigen sollen der 12-Jährigen die Haare angezündet
Dann prasselten Faustschläge und Tritte auf die Schülerin ein
Mit einem Messer verletzte die Bande ihr Opfer zudem am Daumen und zerstörten ihr Smartphone
einer Schnittwunde und Verletzungen im Bauchbereich sowie am Kopf in ein Wiener Spital gebracht werden – ein schockierendes Video der Misshandlungen kursiert derzeit auf sozialen Medien
?"Du wirst am Montag sehen"Maria soll außerdem eingeschüchtert worden sein
ihrer Familie nichts von dem abscheulichen Vorfall zu erzählen
Dafür sollte sie in eine Handykamera sprechen und "auf Allah schwören"
schrieb ein involvierter Teenager dem Opfer offenbar auf Snapchat
Weil Marias Eltern richtig reagierten und Anzeige erstatteten
sollen dem Mädchen weitere Gewalt-Exzesse angedroht worden sein
Auf Snapchat schwört die Girl-Gang Rache: "Du wirst dann am Montag sehen
sondern 10 andere" lautet eine von vielen Drohungen
die Maria in den letzten Tagen über Snapchat erreichte

JOHNS — Tocoi Creek’s win over Menendez in late Feb
is the one game Tocoi Creek girls lacrosse head coach Kristen Meidling can’t overlook
the Falcons beat the Toros by a combined score of 26-2 in their two meetings
“We’re seeing a lot of growth,” said Meidling
Tocoi Creek (3-3) is slowly starting to carve out its place in St
which features some of the best lacrosse talent in the state
The Toros have already played elite teams Bartram Trail (6-1)
Bolles (7-1) and Creekside (3-3) this season
Tocoi Creek’s schedule has eight teams it didn't play last season
including Wolfson (5-1) and Santa Fe (4-1)
BOYS LAX'Win the day': Nease lacrosse focuses on the moment to overcome rocky postseason past
OFF THE FIELDBartram Trail girls lacrosse champion appealing NIL case to FHSAA's board of directors
Tocoi Creek had the lead late in the game before Bolles went on a run to separate itself
The Toros' other two losses are to Creekside and Bartram Trail
“We’ve had a great attitude and intensity whether we win or take a tough loss,” freshman standout Ashley Cotter said
“We’ve learned to keep our mindset in the correct space
the Toros bounced back with a 13-goal shutout of Newberry
Veteran coach Meidling is impressed with the level of talent and work ethic at Tocoi Creek
she pushes her team to become the best version of itself
Tocoi Creek hasn’t cowered from its tough schedule
It’s progressed from a team that couldn’t cradle last year to one that can implement plays this year
the most coachable group Meidling has had in her 15 year career
The Toros still have some room to grow fundamentally
Meidling pinpointed improvements in overall stick skills
They have to continue practicing how they play
The enthusiasm from being one of the area’s newest schools still motivates the Toros
ushering in fresh new competition for long-standing area juggernauts
Seniors Dobbins and Layne Kennedy have enjoyed being the pioneers of the program and watching the team grow

Die Badner Bahn transportiert täglich mehr als 30.000 Menschen von den Vororten nach Wien
30 km vor Wien und bringt die Fahrgäste bis vor die Staatsoper ins Zentrum der Hauptstadt und natürlich auch retour
Wie alle Lokalbahnen ist auch die Hauptaufgabe der Badner Bahn, Menschen von den Vororten in die Hauptstadt zu bringen. Der Zusatz: Neben Pendlern, die täglich zur und von der Arbeit fahren, transportiert die Badner Bahn täglich Shoppingfans in die Shopping City Süd in Vösendorf
Erbaut wurde die Strecke der Badner Bahn bereits 1886
wichtigstes Kriterium war bereits damals die Erschließung der Vororte
was zu erheblichen Verkehrsbehinderungen und Stauzunahmen geführt hätte.
Die neuen und hochmodernen Züge der Badner Bahn bringen einige wesentliche Verbesserungen: Barrierefreiheit
Klimatisierung und eine größere Anzahl an Sitzplätzen
Großzügige und multifunktional gestaltete Einstiegsbereiche
doppeltverglaste Fenster zum Schutz vor Sommerhitz und zur Speicherung von Wärme im Winter ergänzen gemeinsam mit gratis WLAN
Steckdosen und USB-Lademöglichkeiten das Angebot für die Fahrgäste

Ich habe die ÖBB Seniorenkarte.Ist es samstags und sonntags möglich am Josefsplatz ein Ticket Richtung Wien Oper zu lösen
Mit der ÖBB Vorteilscard erhalten Sie vergünstigte Fahrpreise
mit der ÖBB Österreichcard fahren Sie mit der Badner Bahn kostenlos.Beste Grüße aus der Redaktion
Gilt der ÖBB Ausweis auf der Badner Bahn als Fahrausweis
Der Bahn kommt in den letzten Zeit(also 2 Monate) sehr oft verspätet
Gilt das 1-2-3 Klimaticket auch für die Badener Bahn von der Oper bis Baden
Bitte um Nachricht auch auf peter@rebernik,at
Betrifft Ticket-Automaten: Wieso ist es unmöglich
ein Einheitliche's System im Verbund zu haben
Vielmehr ein Zentrales-Automaten-Ticket-System in Ganz Österreich
Diese Willkür von unterschiedlichen Systemen ist Blödsinn und nicht nachvollziehbar
Ticket Baden Josefsplatz - Wien Oper ist 5,80 €
Wie ist die preise fur senioren und kinder 3 jahre alt ?Danke,Daniel
Gültigkeitsbereich Kernzone unverständlich
Leider keine Info über die Haltestellen und die Dauer der fahrt
Ich bin vor eine Woche nach SCS gefahren und wusste nicht dass ab 6.Juni 2016 soll man für 1.70 Euro Ticket kaufen
Ich habe Jahreskarte und finde nicht richtig
dass man eine Strafe von 100 Euro zahlen soll
wenn man kein Ticket von 1,70 Euro hat.....weil sowieso bis vorherige Station Vösendorf-Siebenhirten braucht man kein weiters Ticket (Das hat mir die Kontrolle gesagt)
dass man bestraft werden soll,aber warum 100 Euro???
Möchte mit der Badner Bahn ab Oper Richtung Wiener Neudorf und dort aussteigen
Ich stecke also eine der VVK in den Entwerter
muss man dann einen neuen VVK-Schein entwerten
wenn man weiter als bis zu Shopping City fährt
Ich komme aus OÖ und kenne mich nicht so ganz genau aus!Bitte um Hilfe und genaue Instruktionen!Danke!G
Ich finde es in keiner Weise kundenfreundlich dass es keine Vorverkaufsfahrscheine für die Aussenregionen mehr gibt.Für ältere Personen ziemlich problematisch in Zeiten wie diesen
für ältere Personen welche sich anhalten müssen und nebenbei Tasche halten - Geld bereit halten und sich mit dem Automaten auseinander setzen.Unmögliche Situation .
wenn diese Leute keine Hilfe von anderen Personen bekommen ...
können sie womöglich bei Kontrolle Strafe zahlen.An alte Menschen denkt hier wohl niemand
Mich würde interessieren:Wenn ich irgendwo in Wien (anscheinend "Kernzone 100 - wer denkt sich solch bescheuerte Definitionen aus
was das bedeuten soll...) bin:Ich steige in eine Straßenbahn ein
und will nach Baden.Was genau kaufe ich am Automaten in der Straßenbahn für ein Ticket
Wie viele Kilometer des blauen Stoffes gibt es noch
Es gibt glaube ich nichts unhygienischeres als diesen Stoff
Die alten Garnituren sind in einem teilweise erbärmlichen Zustand
Sie können den Streckenplan ganz einfach als Grafik ausdrucken.Beste GrüßeRedaktion stadt-wien.at
Gibt es einen ausdruckbaren Streckenfahrplan
wieviel zonen von der stadtgrenze sind bis baden man kann es nicht ersehen
und wie lange geht die Fahrt von der Oper zum Josephplatz

nine teenagers are said to have terrorized a cell phone store in Vienna-Meidling
They tried to set it on fire with Molotov cocktails
and a blackmail letter was then supposed to bring in thousands of euros in protection money
The Bubi gang is now sitting before the court of lay assessors in Vienna
While the defence describes them as "not dangerous"
the juvenile court authorities speak of "advanced radicalization"
They celebrate newspaper articles about their deeds on videos
pose proudly for photos with firearms and machetes
a group photo shows the gang in front of a mosque in Vienna-Meidling
All of this is shown to the jurors in Vienna's regional court on a large screen while the public prosecutor makes his detailed plea about the Bubi gang
Arson attacks on Viennese cell phone shopThe young defendants present a completely different picture at the start of the trial
while it is explained in detail how they had formed a gang and what position each individual held
They were out to build a reputation as serious criminals who were respected
They had a view of violence as something very positive
Especially with the main allegations concerning a cell phone store in the 12th district
The gang demanded protection money from the operator
otherwise there would be violent attacks - three times in the form of Molotov cocktails and pyrotechnics
they demanded 25,000 euros from the Indian in a blackmail letter
"They were out to build up a reputation as serious criminals who were respected
They had a view of violence as something very positive," opens the prosecutor
it was a way of life to get rich from it." The remaining seven defendants were hierarchically subordinate.
Chechen gang as a role modelThe defence lawyer for a 19-year-old gang leader provides background information on the motivation behind the criminal organization: "Their role model was the Chechen gang 'Goldenberg' with members in the three-digit range." - a protection money gang that was broken up at the beginning of 2015
the defendants never made it that far.
Defense lawyers do not see the gang as "highly dangerous"Lawyer Philipp Wolm also repeatedly emphasized that
his client was a 17-year-old teenager and not the second head of a mafia-like gang: "Everything is afraid of my client
we have now heard from the public prosecutor
I have known him for eight months and I am not afraid
The defense lawyer for the sixth defendant
also interjected: "I've been doing this job for 30 years and I know what the mafia is and how it works
They are not dangerous." Lawyer Astrid Wagner describes her 15-year-old client as a "follower": "It boosted his self-confidence a bit back then."
who represents the second defendant and also the second in the gang hierarchy
sees the 16-year-old's contribution to the crime as much smaller than the prosecution describes: "They wanted to make it into the media in some way." That is why the teenager filmed one of the arson attacks
the gang of boys confessed almost exclusively and comprehensively
but did not want to say anything else about the accusations
Defendants already "advanced radicalized"While the defense lawyers consistently speak of youthful recklessness and naive behavior
reports from the juvenile court and another criminal complaint paint a completely different picture
At least the two main perpetrators were already "advanced religiously radicalized"
one of them is said to have insulted men as "infidels" and subsequently beaten them up ..
Several trial days have been scheduled for the trial
Witnesses and other parties involved are to be heard

AUSTRIA: The Wien municipality has announced plans to create an S-Bahn ring from 2032 by combining two services and upgrading a freight-only line for passenger use
The orbital service would be formed from the existing S80 and S45 services; S45 trains would be extended from Handelskai to Praterkai
Interchange between S45 and S80 would be provided at Hütteldorf and Praterkai
There would be four trains/h per direction
The extension of S45 from Handelskai to Praterkai would use the existing freight-only alignment parallel to the River Danube
This will require upgrading to enable use by frequent passenger services
and alternative routes for freight traffic are also expected to be required
Two new stations would be created at Reichsbrücke and Donaumarina
The city of Wien and Austrian Federal Railways undertook an 18-month feasibility study involving independent transport planning specialists to assess how an orbital S-Bahn service could be developed
when the city council and ÖBB declared the project feasible
The study also examined a single-line option but this was deemed less viable
The extension of the S45 from Handelskai to Praterkai is also being studied for possible inclusion in ÖBB’s Zielnetz 2040 plan
Another key scheme is the upgrading of the Hütteldorf – Meidling route
where work will include double-tracking between Hütteldorf and Penzing
plus the reconstruction of Hütteldorf station and the addition of another at Baumgarten
these interventions would provide greater robustness for the planned ring service
AUSTRIA: Wien ‘is taking a big leap into the future of digitalised transport’ Siemens Mobility’s CEO of Rolling Stock Albrecht Neumann said when the first of 34 Series X metro trainsets entered passenger service on June 16
‘Innovations like the new passenger information system with real-time ..
AUSTRIA: ÖBB Infra announced plans on March 17 to rebuild the infrastructure on Wien’s 11·3 km cross-city S-Bahn core that links Floridsdorf with Meidling through the heart of the city
The route is to be fitted with ETCS Level 2 and several stations are to be ..
air-conditioning and more seats than before are just a few of the major improvements’

Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz leaves a European Union leaders summit in Brussels
is known for its residents’ distinct pronunciation of the letter “l.” Whereas many people form the sound with just the tip of their tongue against the palate
the “Meidlinger l,” which can also be heard in working-class neighborhoods all over Vienna
soft Viennese German is nowhere near the only language heard on the streets there
was either born abroad or holds a foreign citizenship
Austria’s 31-year-old chancellor in the conservative People’s Party (ÖVP)
grew up—although in the early days of his political career he was often mistaken for someone from Hietzing
the adjacent and more upper-class district
This is because Kurz doesn’t do the “Meidlinger l;” instead
and cadences of his speech sound more like French than German
Nevertheless Kurz has managed to turn his upbringing into a compelling narrative: His parents worked hard to afford an apartment they owned; he enjoyed spending the summers at his grandmother’s farm in Lower Austria; half of his high-school classmates were either immigrants or the children of immigrants
Barely more than a decade after sharing classrooms with refugees
Kurz would boast of having closed the “Balkan route” that a new set of migrants was using to flee to Europe from wars or poverty elsewhere
the issue of migration has defined Kurz’s political career and helped propel him to the chancellorship last October
He went on to form a coalition with the far-right Freedom Party (FPÖ)
making Austria at the time the only Western European government with a far-right party in government
(Italy has since followed suit.) And Europe is following Kurz’s lead in other ways
His preoccupation with migration is shaping the agenda of the continent as a whole
A telling milestone on Kurz’s path to this moment occurred around three years ago
when the now-chancellor was still in his 20s
It was shortly after the image of drowned Syrian three-year-old Alan Kurdi washed up on a Turkish beach was shown all over the world; after a truck with 71 suffocated refugees was found on an Austrian highway; after Germany declared that Syrian refugees wouldn’t be sent back to the EU country they first entered and chancellor Angela Merkel announced “Wir schaffen das” (“We can do it”)
Thousands of refugees and migrants were arriving at Vienna’s Westbahnhof train station every day
most continuing their journeys to neighboring Germany
including the president and the interior minister
Given that he was then the minister for Europe
for example through volunteer work) to receive citizenship faster
Kurz was in line with the pro-European stance of his party: When the far-right Freedom Party demanded that citizens from other EU countries should receive limited access to welfare
Much of Kurz’s job then involved communication and press work
both critics and supporters of Kurz agree on his excellent communication skills
who held various high-ranking positions at the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs until 2011 and is currently a visiting scholar at Carnegie Europe in Brussels
attests that Kurz is a great talent when it comes to “managing political processes:” “He has a great feeling for how the public opinion changes
but you don’t really know what he is thinking.”
many of whom he has known since his days at the Young People’s Party
of which he became the national head in 2009
In their book Sebastian Kurz: Austria’s New Wunderkind
the journalists Nina Horaczek and Barbara Tóth describe how Kurz transformed the previously feeble organization into a powerful network: He frequently invited well-known politicians and founded a highly successful alumni club
a priceless advantage in a party infamous for its vicious fights between different interest groups
It worked: During the national elections in 2013
Kurz was the candidate with the most “Vorzugsstimmen” (“preferred votes”)—the Austrian election system allows people to vote for both a party and a candidate of that party—even more than the incumbent chancellor at the time
Kurz became the youngest foreign minister in the world
and that position further increased his popularity
since it allowed him to stay away from disputes about national politics
called Kurz “chief commentator of the government.”
the West Balkan countries decided to close their borders
strike a deal with Turkey to take back some migrants
and both deals have contributed to a long-term decline in migration into Europe—though they have not diminished migration’s potency as a political issue
Kurz’s “Balkan route” boast was his main talking point during the 2017 election campaign
and it helped his party end up in first place
whose movement Kurz seemed to be trying to mimic
Kurz brought with him into government several political “newcomers.”
Kurz’s coalition government has been in power for half a year now
and it has been consistent in following an anti-immigrant course: It has cut back state-funded German classes for asylum-seekers and is pushing through a law that will cut family benefits for EU citizens with children in lower-income EU countries
“He was never interested in integration politics,” argues Muna Duzdar
a member of parliament for the opposition Social Democratic Party and the daughter of Palestinian immigrants
namely Hungary’s Orban and Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini
“Austria can’t be building bridges and an axis at the same time,” said Lehne
referring to the supposedly neutral role as council president

I thought an overnight train would be the best way to travel through Europe so I could explore more during the day
and I didn't feel rested when I got to Venice
Nightjet trains have regular assigned seats, couchette cars (seats that fold out into couches in shared cabins)
and sleeper cars with bunks of four or six
To travel by train, I bought a Eurail pass for $477
which gives access to most European trains for a set number of days
I arrived about an hour and a half before my 9:35 p.m
train so I'd have ample time to find the platform
I'd need to board my assigned train car; each has a number
I was surprised to find I was the only one inside the lounge since the rest of the station was full of people
There were plenty of tables and chairs available
It was a smaller selection than I've seen at Amtrak's Metropolitan Lounge
I didn't have time to check the car number before boarding
I just went to the closest car and asked an attendant for help
An attendant led the way to my shared cabin
I couldn't image six people squeezing in there
Since I've experienced more bumps on higher bunks on Amtrak trains
Although they weren't as soft and cozy as the sheets on Amtrak trains
My fellow passengers and I agreed to turn off the lights once everyone was settled into bed
I longed for a way to close off my bunk for more personal space
only private sleeper cabins come with a shower
I woke up several times during the night to other travelers entering and exiting the room
There was no café car or common area on board for passengers
"Offering our passengers a high level of travel comfort is an important concern for us," a representative for OBB Nightjet told Business Insider
"We are constantly working on improvements to our product and also take into account the requirements of our customers."
I'd rather arrive feeling refreshed so I can enjoy where I'm going
a previously unknown man entered a tobacconist in Vienna-Meidling and demanded that the employee hand over the cash from the register
The 23-year-old refused and asked the man to leave the store
The perpetrator showed the young woman a suspected firearm tucked into his waistband
As he attempted to reach into the register
The perpetrator then grabbed two cartons of cigarettes and fled the tobacconist in an unknown direction
The immediate manhunt initiated by the police was unsuccessful
The perpetrator was approximately 25-30 years old

Signatures: Literary Encounters of a Lifetime
The essayist and novelist David Pryce-Jones was born in Meidling
in the ominous year of 1936 to the British author and later editor of the Times Literary Supplement Alan Pryce-Jones and Therese “Poppy” Fould-Springer
The marriage gave the Pryce-Jones connections to some of the great families of Europe
Pryce-Jones has explored this early years in a previous book
which Charles Moore called “a brilliant description of illusion
the destructive power of money…and the effect of persecution and war.” Now
which includes sketches of some of the same figures featured in Fault Lines
but focuses primarily on authors who have signed books for him
but nearly all were witnesses to or affected by the brutalities and savageries of the last century that led to the collapse of the world as they’d come to know it
such a collection is little more than an autograph album
The stories these writers tell and the lives they lived are
and the simple act of inscription is a reminder of this
At his birth in Meidling on the eve of total war
he writes (no doubt as his father Alan Pryce-Jones remembered it): “Some who stood around my cradle said
that’s a lovely Jewish name.” And what’s in a name
given the nature of the storm about to break
his generation “had to deal with the fact that the whole continent had first almost gone Nazi and then almost gone Soviet Communist
Nothing was ever again going to be what it had been.” He continues: “A good many of the authors who signed a book of theirs for me are survivors from the Age of Dictators and I wanted to know what they’d been through and how they’d survived.”
The vignettes in Signatures—some a short page
some several—are arranged alphabetically rather than thematically
although many of them come at the same themes from different directions
Some sketches focus on the signed works themselves
some on the circumstances under which they were produced
and all with spare but telling comments with occasional flashes of wit
He describes a visit to Isaac Bashevis Singer
Singer let the doings and sayings of his characters speak for themselves rather than be a medium for the author’s voice.” This prompts him to remember that when he taught creative writing for a year at the University of Iowa
he used some of the sketches in Singer’s memoir of a Polish Jewish childhood—In My Father’s Court—“to get it across that plain statement makes any and every character and context believable
He observes this principle in his own writing
and that largely accounts for the sketches of even the oddest subjects ringing true
One of the oddest was the sculptor Arno Breker
whose life and times “are a warning that bad art has the power to do great damage.” Born in northern Germany
he had a studio in Paris and called himself the successor to Rodin
quickly establishing himself as “Hitler’s favorite sculptor,” and playing a leading role in cleansing the Third Reich of “degenerate art,” along with the artists who produced it
Thirty years after he had accompanied Hitler to Paris
“he saw it as the greatest compliment to his artistic gift as a sculptor
Hitler invited him to dine and awarded him the Nazi Party’s Golden Badge
its highest decoration.” In his studio in Germany,“busts and statues were assembled in some disorder
Nazi kitsch was on a support system in that studio.”
While doing research for his book on Unity Mitford
“Hitler’s favorite architect,” who cheated the hangman at Nuremberg and lived to write Inside the Third Reich
was perhaps the most unhinged of the Mitford sisters—one a dedicated Communist
It may have been Unity’s hope to become Mrs
and the interview with the otherwise evasive Speer seems to suggest
as does much of the material collected for the book
that Hitler himself may not have been averse to the idea of a romance with a blonde English aristocrat
whom in several intimate notes he called Valkyrie
hanged for broadcasting throughout the war from Berlin,” met Pryce-Jones in Austria at his parents’ home when he was a few days old
the concluding sentence—“The moral atmosphere in which these events took place is that of a burnt-out fairground”—Pryce-Jones writes
“illustrates the genial way she made her language rise to her subject.” For West
“Communism and Nazism were twin evils and she entered into close combat with apologists for either dogma.”
Nor were their philosophical progeny any less evil
then-Mayor Teddy Kollek gave a reception for her
The telephone rang in her hotel room and a voice said
you have been fraternizing with the Zionist enemy and I am from the PLO with orders to shoot you.” Her response
was essentially that she’d lived a full and rewarding life
a sampler of the ninety-one sketches included in Signatures
some of the subjects secure in their fame (like Muriel Spark)

and I hope to come back and intern at Whitney again as a REU or in a different position.”

Known popularly as the Ice-Lady, Goidsargi Estibaliz Carranza Zabala was 36 when something in her snapped
and she shot and killed her ex-husband while he was sitting at his computer in 2008
He had refused to move out of their home after their divorce
she then used the sound of the ice-cream making machines in her ice-cream parlour to drown out the sounds of the chainsaw
as she cut off his head and dismembered his body
storing the body parts in flower pots in her basement
Carranza also murdered her new boyfriend while he was sleeping
Manfred Hinterberger was an ice-cream machine salesman some 20 years her senior
she took shooting lessons as well as a course in mixing concrete at a local hardware store
She shot him as he slept after a drunken argument in November 2010 with the same Beretta she had used to dispatch her first husband
"He turned his face to the wall and started snoring..
loaded and shot," the Spanish-Mexican Carranza told the court
In the morning she "asked him to forgive me for what I had done"
A third boyfriend got her pregnant in 2011
and she was looking forward to a happy future when workmen stumbled across the remains in the basement
Goidsargi Estibaliz Carranza Zabala
Carranza high-tailed it across the Alps to Italy in a 480 km (300 mile) taxi ride
where she was arrested a few days later in the home of a street musician
At her trial in 2012 chief prosecutor Petra Freh said Carranza's crimes were horrific and that she was a "highly dangerous woman ready to do anything"
A police psychiatrist at the trial said it was highly likely that she would kill again
A psychiatric report commissioned by the court said that Carranza
now in a unit for the "mentally abnormal"
was dangerous and was like a "princess..
who just wants to be 'rescued' by a man"
The son she bore while in custody is now being cared for by her parents in Barcelona
she released a memoir entitled My Two Lives
co-written with journalist Martina Prewein
Any proceeds from the memoir will go to the families of her victims
whom I once loved," Carranza writes in the book
"There is no way of glossing this over
I robbed two mothers of their sons
She said she had simply been unable to break up with her lover
She said she made them into "monsters and finally they made me a beast"
She is likely to remain in a secure facility for the criminally insane for the rest of her life

Observers say that Vienna has one of the best public transport systems in the world
But some lines are 150 years old and the population of Austria’s capital city is steadily growing – more than anywhere else in the country - and so the S-bahn is seeing a major ugrade
There is a modernisation of the “Stammstrecke” main line
making it the most popular local transport network in Austria
Repairs and upgrades will take place between the Meidling and Floridsdorf stations
which connect central Vienna from north to south
This means that various points will be closed
with the S-Bahn network staggering closures to reduce disruption
if you are between Floridsdorf down to Praterstern station
you will be inconvenienced for quite a while
They will be closed in July and August 2024
Many of the train station buildings will be repaired from August 2025 to 2027
Wien Mitte down to Hauptbahnhof will be closed from September 2026 till Oktober 2027
After that two stations from Hauptbahnhof to Meidling will be closed for just November and December
There will also be 40km of new lines at the ends of the Nordwestbahn extending out till Unterretzbach
Nordbahn past Gänserndorf and the Südstrecke out till Payerbach-Reichenau
giving residents of the suburbs better access to the city
A map of the "Stammstrecke". Image: S-bahn.wien.
60km of new overhead lines and 9 new parking facilities

The Café am Thalersee has resumed operations
who has been successfully running the Gleis//Garten in the former Vienna-Meidling depot of the Badner Bahn in Vienna since autumn 2023
Florian Bollen has been negotiating intensively with the previous operators of Waldcafe Thalersee over the past few months and has developed a concept for a successful future for the catering business for Holding Graz’s local recreation project at Thalersee
The team behind the new café-restaurant “Thaler See Garten” is a mixture of experienced restaurateurs who already run five locations in London
but were also active in the former Café Restaurant Thalersee before the new building
We are pleased that some of the previous tenants’ employees will be taken on
What’s new at the “Thaler See Garten”
the new operator is focussing on a wide-ranging menu for all groups of guests with affordable
lunch with daily specials and reasonably priced regional snacks
Holding Graz and the municipality of Thal are also working intensively on a new visitor guidance system and the design of the Seerundweg trail
As the operators of Kraft Moments GmbH are taking over the existing contract
they will also emphasise the areas of bicycle and boat hire
an attractive redesign of the terrace with more wood and greenery is being considered – a public transport connection with a CO2-neutral shuttle from the city centre is also being examined
Councillor for Finance and Participation Manfred Eber: “We are delighted that we have managed to reopen the Café am Thalersee in time for the start of spring
I would like to take this opportunity to wish the new team all the best and the guests pleasant hours and culinary delights at Thalersee.”
