Der Bundesrat will die Verkehrssituation in Siedlungen und Städten weiter verbessern. Für die vierte Generation schlägt der Bundesrat vor, insgesamt 32 Projekte mit rund 1,3 Milliarden Franken mitzufinanzieren. Die Verkehrssituation in Siedlungen und Städten muss weiter verbessert werden. Die Siedlungen haben dem Bund insgesamt 32 Projekte mit einem Investitionsvolumen von rund sechs Milliarden Franken eingereicht. Der Bundesrat hält sie alle für sinnvoll und schlägt ihre Unterstützung mit 1,3 Milliarden Franken vor....

The researchers analyzed the DNA of 13 Neanderthal men, women and children and found an interconnected web of relationships, including a father and his teenage daughter, another male relative of the father, and two second-degree relatives, possibly an aunt and her nephew. All Neanderthals were largely related, a consequence, the researchers believe, of the small Neanderthal population, with communities scattered over vast distances and numbering only about 10 to 30 people....

Americans head to the polls on Tuesday for an election that has state and local officials across the country bracing for potential trouble at the polls, contentious legal battles over ballots and fighting misinformation about the vote itself. More than 41 million primary ballots have been cast in 47 states, and officials expect high turnout on Election Day as well for the congressional, state and gubernatorial contests that will determine control of Congress and state legislatures....

Republican Rep. Lee Zeldin spent time in the Hudson Valley on Saturday. His rallies, like the one in Putnam County, were well attended. New York’s Republicans had grown stronger with an increasing chance of electing a Republican governor for the first time in 20 years. “So why are you bringing all these people to New York if this race isn’t as close as it really is?” Zeldin previously said of incumbent Gov....

Here’s a quick rundown of some of the more notable deals that took place: The most amazing trade I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to say that sending Calvin Ridley to the Jaguars is the most surprising deal of the day. Was anyone thinking about the last Falcons wide receiver? After all, Ridley is suspended for the entire season after being caught betting on NFL games during his absence from football....

We’ve already seen huge blockbusters go down around the league, including Christian McCaffrey landing with the San Francisco 49ers. That deal — which included multiple options to return to Carolina — is already starting to pay dividends for the Niners after McCaffrey rushed, caught and passed for a touchdown in Sunday’s win over the Rams. It’s that type of impact that teams hope to give their rosters to give them a boost down the stretch....

More than 200 cases were investigated in the review ordered by ministers last year. in almost half the cases the result could have been different, with the right care. The publication of the report follows a five-year fight for justice by Derek Richford as he sought answers over the death of his grandson Harry at Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital in Margate, Kent in 2017. Harry’s family, including parents Sarah and Tom Richford, have said their concerns were repeatedly brushed aside by hospital managers....

ORLANDO, Fla. – Tropical Storm Nicole is gaining strength as it continues to move toward Florida prompting a hurricane warning for parts of Florida’s east coast. Nicole will approach the northwestern Bahamas on Tuesday and approach the east coast of Florida within the hurricane warning area on Wednesday night. The center of Nicole is then expected to move across central and northern Florida into southern Georgia on Thursday and Thursday night....

It would be easy to dismiss Ticket To Paradise as something soft and airy that goes down smoothly—an easy choice for an airplane watch or if you’ve ever been stuck in a hotel with basic cable. But you won’t find that kind of trampling here. This movie stinks, really stinks, and the fact that it had the makings of a winner makes it all the more disappointing. George Clooney and Julia Roberts, the last of a certain breed of Hollywood A-lister, play estranged couple David and Georgia....

A lunar eclipse is when the moon passes through the earth’s shadow and unlike a solar eclipse it can last for hours. The duration of a lunar eclipse gives people a longer window of time to see it. For people in the Cochrane area, the timetable is as follows: 2:09 am the partial eclipse begins 3:16 am total eclipse begins 3:59 am average eclipse 4:42 am The total eclipse ends At 5:49 AM, the partial eclipse ends The forecast calls for possible disturbances early Tuesday morning, but hopefully there will be a break in the clouds to see the event....

Hundreds of climate activists breached a runway at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport on Saturday to try to block private jets from taking off, in the latest demonstration by protesters to draw attention to the climate crisis. Greenpeace Netherlands said “more than 500” Greenpeace and Extinction Rebellion activists were at the airport, one of Europe’s largest, on Saturday afternoon, in a press release. A spokesman for the Schiphol security forces could not confirm this figure....

The hardware itself is slightly smaller and noticeably lighter than the second-generation 4K from last year. That’s because Apple has removed the cooling fan (yes, there was a fan there before) in favor of a passive thermal design. But overall, it looks like the same old Apple TV with a matte top and glossy sides with a dust magnet. This is a box that sits on a shelf and connects to your TV via a multi-foot HDMI cable (sold separately)....

Meanwhile, his rival Prime Minister Yair Lapid was reportedly yet to speak to his allies in the seemingly exiting coalition, some of whom were furious at his handling of the campaign. By 10 a.m. Thursday, the Central Election Commission had collected 4,465,929 ballots representing 93 percent of all votes cast, and counting was expected to be completed later Thursday. Netanyahu’s bloc was projected to win 65 seats, giving the former prime minister a comfortable majority to form a government in the 120-seat Knesset after 17 months in opposition with the far-right and Haredi allies....

Ce soir, toutes les chaînes de télévision américaines diffuseront la première réunion publique du comité restreint de la Chambre des représentants sur ces événements qui auraient pu faire dérailler la démocratie aux États-Unis. Toutes les chaînes? Non. Alors que la commission présentera un condensé de faits recueillis auprès de plus de 1 000 témoins certifiés et de plus de 125 000 documents, la chaîne de propagande de droite, Fox News, diffusera des « faits alternatifs » qui renforceront les croyances de leurs auditeurs....

Deux jeunes de 18 et 28 ans ont été tués dans un accident de la circulation, vers 5 heures du matin dimanche, à Martiel en Aveyron, sur la RD 926. Leur véhicule a fait une sortie de route pour une raison inconnue. Le conducteur et le passager étaient originaires des villages de Vailhourles et de Puylagarde. Ils circulaient en fin de nuit en direction de Villefranche-de-Rouergue, rapportent nos confrères du Centre-Presse Aveyron....

Ahead of Thursday’s meeting, when the Bank is expected to raise its key rate by up to one percentage point to 3.25%, officials unloaded 750 million pounds of government bonds, known as gilts, to commercial banks and insurance companies as part of a plan to sell £80bn by the end of next year. The move marks a major U-turn for Britain’s central bank, which is seeking to raise borrowing costs to reduce inflation that hit 10....
