U-Bahn Stephansplatz: Nur ein Aufzug
220.000 Menschen benützen täglich den U-Bahn-Knoten Stephansplatz. Trotzdem gibt es nur einen einzigen, engen Aufzug an die Oberfläche. Das führt oft zu langen Wartezeiten für Rollstuhlfahrer und Eltern mit Kinderwagen. Besserung ist nicht in Sicht.
Der U-Bahn-Knoten Stephansplatz gehört zu den am meisten frequentierten Stationen im Wiener U-Bahn-Netz. Die U1 und die U3 bleiben in der City stehen. 220.000 Menschen steigen benützen hier täglich die U-Bahn. Viele Touristen sind dort unterwegs, auch Rollstuhlfahrer und Eltern mit kleinen Kindern. Für sie ist die U-Bahn am Stephansplatz oft nicht das schnellste Verkehrsmittel. Es steht nur ein Aufzug an der Oberfläche zur Verfügung, oft kommt es zu langen Wartezeiten, wie die ORF-Sendung „heute konkret“ berichtet.
„Dann muss ich zum Schwedenplatz fahren“
„Man muss sich vorstellen, wenn der Lift einmal defekt ist. Dann muss ich zum Schwedenplatz fahren und kann erst dort in die U-Bahn. Das ist ein riesiger Zeitaufwand und sehr mühsam“, sagt Ingrid Nedved, die im Rollstuhl sitzt. Dieser eine Lift wurde 1990 gemeinsam mit dem Haas Haus gebaut. Seither hat sich nichts verändert.
Der Verein „Bizeps" fragte schon mehrmals bei der Stadt wegen des Baus eines zweiten Lifts an. Bisher scheiterten die Gespräche. „Es gab schon Pläne für einen zweiten Lift, aus finanziellen Gründen sind die aber nicht verwirklicht worden“, sagt Cornelia Scheuer von „Bizeps“. Mittlerweile seien praktisch alle Wiener U-Bahn-Linien mit Aufzügen ausgestattet, daher würden auch mehr Rollstuhlfahrer die U-Bahn nützen, so Scheuer. Nur am Stephansplatz komme es immer wieder zu längeren Wartezeiten.
„Baulich extrem schwierig“
Bei den Wiener Linien hat man Verständnis für das Anliegen, einen zweiten Lift zu bauen. „Hier ist es baulich aber extrem schwierig. Wir haben zwei U-Bahn-Linien, die sich kreuzen. Es gibt am Platz eine Schutzzone, dass der Blick auf den Stephansdom gewährleistet sein muss“, sagt Sprecher Dominik Gries gegenüber „heute konkret“.
Die Schutzzone fällt in den Zuständigkeitsbereich von Planungsstadträtin Maria Vassilakou (Grüne). Gegenüber „heute konkret“ heißt es in einer Stellungnahme aus ihrem Büro, dass der Bau eines zusätzlichen Liftes grundsätzlich möglich wäre, aber anhand eines konkreten Projekts geprüft werden müsse.
„Akut und momentan wird sich nichts verändern. Wir können nur versuchen, noch stärker auf die Fahrgäste einzuwirken, die den Lift nicht unbedingt brauchen, ihn auch nicht zu benutzen", sagt Dominik Gries von den „Wiener Linien“. 2016 soll der Stephansplatz saniert werden - mehr dazu in Stephansplatz durchzogen von Teerflecken.

Took cut pawpaw branches to watercolor class today and noticed the leaves may reorient themselves depending on how they're placed in the vase and lit. That sent me to the pawpaws again after class to see how the leaves arrange themselves on the tree. Took lots of photos; after only two days there are lots fewer leaves and fruit clusters. Looking at the photos when I got home, I noticed how leaves that dominated the twig end in the spring, with a bit of competition from an emerging flower, by fall are subordinate to the fruit (a whole cluster grew from one blossom) hanging from what is now a hefty stem.

This telegram informs the family that Charles was Killed in Action on 22nd March 1918, the second day of the German Spring Offensive. The main thrust of the German advance was in the area south of Saint Quentin, where the allied defences were at their weakest, and it was here that Charles' regiment was stationed and working as a dismounted unit in support of the infantry.
The German attack began on March 21st and resulted in heavy casualties; on the 22nd the Regimental War Diary records that the 20th Hussars retreated across the Crozat Canal, marched to Faillouel, then to sand-pits between there and Jussy, which the Germens entered later in the day. There is no mention of any action that day by the 20th Hussars but the casualty list records three Other Ranks KIA, one of whom must have been Charles Ringham.

Jose Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere Manuscript in German and etc.
Opening bid: P 750,000
Provenance:
Private Collection, Makati City
Lot 101 of the Leon Gallery auction on 10 September 2016. For more information, please see www.leon-gallery.com .
There is no doubt that history has marked our National Hero’s place in the echelons of the nation’s generation of champions because of one published novel, the Noli me Tangere. But the complete story cannot be written if other peculiar and peripheral materials are not considered. This controversial book was primarily written in German, and has also made a lasting impact on Europeans. Here are some primary Spanish Colonial Period letters, books and an unpublished manuscript translation of the Noli in German.
(1) Undated letter in Spanish on watermarked paper “O C F. Paris” addressed to Jose Rizal from a friend while he was in France. There are very few remaining primary documents and letters addressed to, and touched by National Hero Jose Rizal still kept in private hands. The majority of these letters were acquired by the Philippine Government after Legislative Act 2021 was passed on January 26, 1911.
(2) Congratulatory letter for the Noli me Tangere sent from Berlin, Germany on May 25, 1887 by a certain W. Raj after Jose Rizal left, congratulating him in German for the Tagalog novel Noli me Tangere. This date marks the time when the printing press released the undated book.
(3) Letter of appreciation addressed to Paciano Mercado on official stationery of Intendencia Gral. de Hacienda in Binondo, Manila and dated June 6, 1887 regarding the complimentary copy of the Noli me Tangere. The letter took note that a book dealer in Manila by the name of Manuel Arias y Rodriguez was selling 100 copies of the book. This letter is historically significant because it dates the arrival of the famous novel in Manila when government officials were even afforded complimentary copies.
(4) El Amigo de los Niños by Abate Sabater and translated by Juan Escoiquiz, published in Manila by Agencia Editorial de Manuel Arias Rodriguez in 1896.
(5) Siluetas Filipinas by Ximeno Ximénez published in Madrid by Libreria de Robles y Compañia in 1887. It is interesting to read another version of the Philippine situation that came out during the same year the Noli me Tangere was released.
(6) Undated 234 manuscript pages consisting of the unpublished translation of Jose Rizal’s novel Noli me Tangere in German with a new title In the Land of the Monks. The first page indicates the translators as Henri Lucas and Ramon Sempon. Together with the black knotted folio, the paper used is of the late 19th century vintage.
It all starts with contributes uploading or creating a new document for collaboration. A collaborator is a group or people responsible for selecting the appropriate document from “uploads” folder, store them in them in “working-document” folder and work on them. Once the document is ready to be published document is sent to the “request for approval” folder where an approving authority is notified.
Approving authority can approve or disapprove the document. It may go back to the “working document” if disapproved with a notification to the collaborator(s). If approved the document moves to the “Approved version” folder and can be published in a desired format (pdf/doc/html) and location (published folder/intranet site/social networking site) as per the predefined rule set.
All these roles and workflow can be re-fined and redefined based on the business process. This is an example workflow and was created for basic understanding of a document workflow.

This was the book my mother used when she went to Penrith High School NSW in 1939.
It has had a lot of use since then.
Sadly I cannot show the cover as over the years it acquired a 'timber-look' Contact cover and is missing a few pages :-(
I still find the book useful and decided to photograph and share a few of the pages on Flickr.
Part of the Gothic ballad of The Vampyre from Stagg's Minstrel of the North 1810.
Comment by seriykotik (Ian) on Flickr:
"The Minstrel of the North looks like a classic Gothic miscellany ! just looked at the copy of this on archive.org and it has a great vampire ballad on pp 261 to 269. It predates Polidori's "The Vampire". It looks like your book contains one of the first vampire stories,in ballad form, in English literature.I just read it-I like the intro which describes how spirits of the newly departed cost around for cramps of human flesh to inhabit.
Fascinating."
