Podcasts about Charles Darrow

Während der Weltwirtschaftskrise verkauft der arbeitslose Charles Darrow sein Brettspiel Monopoly an die Spielefirma Parker Brothers – und wird über Nacht zum Symbol des amerikanischen Traums. Doch schon bald zweifeln Spielefans an seiner Rolle als Erfinder. Jahrzehnte später kommt die wahre Geschichte ans Licht – eine Geschichte, die zu einer Frau führt, die nie die Anerkennung erhielt, die ihr eigentlich zusteht.Unsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://art19.com/privacy.

Na počátku 20. století vymyslela levicová aktivistka Elizabeth Magie deskovou hru The Landlord's Game. Měla šířit osvětu o nebezpečí soukromého vlastnictví a podpořit to společné. Hra se ale neujala. V roce 1935 ji modifikoval Charles Darrow, prohlásil ji za svůj nápad, a pod názvem Monopoly ji prodal tehdy největšímu výrobci her v USA. V ní už šlo o čistý zisk: koupit co nejvíc pozemků a výhodně je pronajímat. U nás se rozšířila před rokem 1989 jako Dostihy a sázky.

In the midst of the Great Depression, out-of-work salesman Charles Darrow sold the board game he created, Monopoly, to Parker Brothers. The game was an overnight success, and Charles became a hopeful example of the American dream. But soon, fellow game obsessives questioned Charles's inventor status. Decades later, another game creator's tireless pursuit of the truth reveals Monopoly's subversive origin story and the twisted journey it took before landing in Charles Darrow's hands.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Minggu, 15 Desember 2024 Bacaan: "Sebab bagi Allah tidak ada yang mustahil." ( Lukas 1:37) Renungan: Suatu ketika ada seorang pemuda berusia dua puluh tahunan bermimpi bahwa suatu hari nanti ia akan menjadi seorang jutawan. Impian ini kemudian disampaikannya kepada sang kekasih. Beberapa waktu kemudian mereka menikah. Sayangnya tidak lama kemudian terjadi krisis ekonomi yang parah. Masa depresi besar tiba! Pasangan ini kemudian mengalami berbagai peristiwa menyedihkan dalam kehidupan mereka. Mulai dari kehilangan pekerjaan dan mobil, rumah yang digadaikan hingga tabungan yang kian menipis dari hari ke hari. Sang pemuda ini mengalami frustrasi luar biasa. la sering duduk termenung seorang diri. la bahkan menyarankan agar istrinya meninggalkan dia. la merasa tidak mampu lagi menjadi suami yang baik. la merasa telah gagal dalam hidupnya. Siapa menduga sang istri justru tidak kehilangan harapannya sedikit pun? Sang istri yang penuh kasih sayang ini selalu dekat dan menguatkannya. Dengan tidak bosan-bosannya ia meyakinkan sang suami bahwa impian untuk menjadi jutawan itu belum mati dan mereka pasti bisa mencapainya bersama-sama suatu hari kelak. Untuk tetap menjaga impian tersebut ia mengajak sang suami merancang apa yang akan mereka lakukan jika suatu saat nanti mereka menjadi jutawan. Keduanya lalu mulai melakukan hal ini setiap kali selesai makan malam. Waktu terus berlalu dan mereka masih saja melakukan kegiatan yang sama hingga suatu hari sang suami mendapatkan sebuah ide brilian yaitu menciptakan permainan uang, yaitu barang-barang apa saja yang akan dibeli jika seseorang memiliki "uang", misalnya tanah, rumah, gedung, dsb. Gagasan ini terus mereka matangkan. Mereka menambahkan papan permainan, dadu, kartu, rumah-rumah kecil, hotel-hotel kecil, dsb. Permainan itu bernama monopoli. Begitulah cerita bagaimana Charles Darrow dan istrinya, Esther menciptakan permainan tersebut. Permainan ini kemudian dijual kepada seorang pengusaha dengan harga $1.000.0000 (satu juta dolar) dan impian jadi jutawan pun terwujud! Pesan dari cerita ini adalah "Jangan biarkan impian kita padam hanya karena datangnya cobaan." Impian selalu mungkin terjadi apalagi bagi kita yang percaya kepada Tuhan Yesus Kristus. Terkadang justru di balik pencobaan atau masalah yang sedang terjadi ada berkat yang tersembunyi dari Bapa di Surga. Jadi, ketika kita sedang mengalami masalah atau cobaan, yakinkan pada diri kita sendiri bahwa itu pertanda impian kita sudah dekat. Lalu hempaskan cobaan itu dan raih impian kita. Karena bagi Tuhan tidak ada yang mustahil. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, kutaruh pengharapanku dalam tangan kasih-Mu. Tunjukkanlah jalan terbaik untuk mewujudkan pengharapanku. Aku percaya tidak ada perkara yang mustahil bagi-Mu. Amin.

W tym odcinku zabieram Was w podróż przez historię, która kryje się za jedną z najbardziej rozpoznawalnych gier planszowych na świecie – Monopoly. Poznacie Elizabeth Magie, wizjonerkę i wynalazczynię, której pionierska gra The Landlord's Game stała się fundamentem dla współczesnego Monopoly. Dowiecie się, jak jej pomysł zrodził się z przekonań politycznych i sprzeciwu wobec niesprawiedliwości społecznych. Opowiem także o jej trudnej walce o uznanie, o tym, jak Charles Darrow przypisał sobie jej zasługi, i jak Ralph Anspach po latach ujawnił prawdę o jej patencie. Zajmiemy się także kontrowersyjną rolą wydawcy gry oraz edycją Ms. Monopoly, która miała uhonorować kobiety, ale okazała się jedynie marketingową wydmuszką. Będzie to opowieść o sile pomysłowości, niesprawiedliwości i zapomnianej twórczyni, która naprawdę zasługuje na miejsce w historii. Zapraszam do słuchania!

Did you know that one of the most popular American Board games of all time - MONOPOLY - was actually invented by a Broad?! That right! Lizzie Magie invented THE LANDLORD'S GAME to help teach the concept of Georgism to the masses, and even patented it in 1904, 30 years before the Monopoly patent was filed.  As we dive down the rabbit hole we discover not only more about the incredible multi-hyphenate and radical feminist Lizzie was, but also how her beloved game fell into the hands of Charles Darrow, and ultimately was purchased by the then-struggling Parker Brothers. Did Lizzie ever receive compensation or credit for her invention? You'll have to listen to find out! — A Broad is a woman who lives by her own rules.

Arion, Rebecca and Olly unearth the origins of iconic board-game Monopoly, marketed across the United States by Parker Brothers on 5th November, 1935. Its roots lay in a game designed by Quaker feminist Lizzie Magie in 1902, intended to illustrate the theories of political economist Henry George. Her concept, called "The Landlord's Game," intended to demonstrate the unfairness of the land system. But, though home-made versions spread across the States, the game was only picked up for official distribution after being spotted by entrepreneur Charles Darrow in Atlantic City. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal how little Magee was financially compensated, despite having a patent on the game; explain why the London version of the board has been played in more territories than the Atlantic City version; and consider the merits of spin-offs Gayopoly, Drinkopoly, and even the ‘Love Actually' version… Further Reading: • ‘Lizzie Magie invented Monopoly, so why haven't we heard of her?'

Monopoly is the bestselling boardgame of all time. In this episode you'll learn how Monopoly was invented. Until the truth came out, in the 1970s, we used to believe that a man named Charles Darrow created the game in 1934 in a burst of genius. But some dedicated sleuths discovered the real invention story. It's a fascinating story about the power of collaboration and social networks. You'll hear about the battle against Capitalism, the Supreme Court, Quakers, a political campaign—this story has it all! Monopoly emerged over a 30-year period, with creative contributions by hundreds of people. Each person contributed a small spark of creativity along the way. The story of Monopoly demonstrates the power of collaboration to drive creativity.

Le "Monopoly", dont les versions ne cessent de se multiplier, est sans conteste l'un des jeux de société les plus célèbres. On a longtemps cru qu'il avait été inventé, en 1933, par un chômeur américain, Charles Darrow, alors que son pays subissait de plein fouet la Grande Dépression.Or il n'en est rien. Si le jeu baptisé "Monopoly" est bien dû à Charles Darrow, celui-ci s'est inspiré, pour le créer, d'un autre jeu, mis au point par une femme.Elle se nomme Elizabeth Magie. Née en 1866, elle devient sténographe et secrétaire, ce qui ne l'empêche pas de s'essayer à la poésie et au théâtre. Mais c'est aussi une militante.Elle dénonce la condition des femmes et, fidèle aux idées de son père, qui critiquait l'enrichissement abusif des propriétaires fonciers, elle prétend que le seul possesseur d'un bien devrait être celui qui l'a créé.En 1903, Elizabeth Magie dépose un brevet pour un jeu de son invention, le "Landlord's game", le "jeu du propriétaire foncier". Son but premier n'est pas de distraire ses contemporains.En faisant une partie de "Landlord's game", les joueurs doivent comprendre à quel point les propriétaires fonciers accaparent les richesses. Et plus généralement les propriétaires de monopoles, comme John D. Rockfeller par exemple, qui contrôlent des pans entiers de l'économie.À une époque où l'économie n'est guère enseignée à l'école, ce jeu doit en apprendre les règles aux joueurs. La pédagogie par le jeu, sur ce point aussi, Elizabeth Magie était plutôt en avance sur son temps.Très optimiste, la conceptrice du jeu pensait que les enfants, instruits par leurs parties, mesureraient les injustices du système économique et chercheraient à y remédier une fois devenus adultes.On redécouvrira le "Landlord's game", et son influence sur le "Monopoly", dans les années 1970. C'est l'économiste Ralph Anspach qui, accusé de plagier le "Monopoly" et amené à faire des recherches pour assurer sa défense, tire le jeu de l'oubli. Il pourra dès lors dénoncer ce qu'il appela le "mensonge du Monopoly". Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

In this very first episode of Unusual Histories, Danny begins his exploration of the history you didn't learn at school, covering all of the weird, grizzly, and fascinating bits. Things that not even Horrible Histories covered. This episode kicks off The Monopoly Series, which will take you on a journey around the London Monopoly board to enjoy the varied and interesting history of each iconic location. Today, Danny covers the history of the game itself which is weirder than you think. He also explains where the old boot piece came from, the street colouring system and why the Nazis banned the game. KEY TAKEAWAYS Charles Darrow based Monopoly on another existing board game. The original game was created to illustrate the negative impact land monopolism has and to promote an alternative called Georgism. The Community Chest was not added until 1932, 26 years after the invention of the original game. The guy behind the jail bars is a caricature of Charles Darrow. The Great Depression played an important role in popularising Monopoly. The Nazis banned Monopoly – Danny explains why. There is a version called Anti-Monopoly.  BEST MOMENTS ‘Lizzie Magie was an anti-monopolist, ironically. ´ ‘Darrow didn´t invent Monopoly.' ‘The brown squares were the slums of the time.'

Having worked with some of the most difficult people in the UK, he is a natural storyteller and entertainer, whilst purveying the most fascinating information that you didn't know you didn't know. A writer and host of pub quizzes across London, he has travelled extensively and speaks several languages. He has been a consultant for exhibitions at the Imperial War Museum and Natural History Museum in London as well as presenting accelerated learning seminars across the UK.

That was me at school as well. Ironically, I ended up becoming a historian. The Unusual Histories podcast is all about the history you don't learn at school, nor indeed anywhere else. Discover things that you didn't know that you didn't know; fascinating historical luminaries and their vices and addictions, the other numerous sides of every story. We start with the Monopoly Series, in which we explore how the game came to be, the real-life connection between the cheapest and most expensive properties, the history of each location, how proportionate the values were then and are today, what the hell a "community chest" is and whether free parking really does exist anywhere in London.  If you love history; or indeed if you hate history, this is the podcast for you…

Monopoly is the most successful and popular board game of the modern world and it was invented in the 1930s by Charles Darrow. OR WAS IT? While fighting a court case against Parker Brothers in the 1970s, Richard Anspach discovered that the game might actually have been designed by a woman named Lizzie Magie.

L'histoire du Monopoly est folle. Un jeu créé par une féministe repris et volé par un homme, un jeu anti-capitaliste qui devient un symbole du capitalisme. Elizabeth Magie nait en 1886 dans l'Illinois aux Etats-Unis. Féministe et anti-monopoliste, c'est une femme très moderne. Pendant plusieurs années, elle invente un jeu, Le Landlord's game pour montrer aux gens la «nature antisociale du monopole». Le Landlord's game se répand petit à petit partout aux Etats-Unis et notamment jusqu'à Atlantic City où un certain Charles Darrow se ré approprie le jeu. Il rajoute des prix, met le nom des rues… et il transforme le Landlord's game en Monopoly. Le jeu commence alors à se vendre et Parker Brothers, maison d'édition de jeu, le rachète à Charles qui devient riche. Il rachètent aussi les droits à Elizabeth Magie pour 500 dollars. Elizabeth disparait de l'histoire du Monopoly jusqu'en 1976, quand un professeur d'économie, Ralph Anspach découvre la vérité.

El Monopoly tiene su origen en un juego creado por Elizabeth Magie a principios del siglo XX. Años más tarde, en 1935, Charles Darrow, un vendedor de calefactores domésticos, patentó una versión del juego con el nombre de Monopoly. La antigua compañía Parker Brothers, dueña del juego, ha mantenido que el autor es únicamente Darrow, pero Elisabeth Magie fue finalmente reconocida como la creadora original después de años en los tribunales.

For generations, Monopoly has been America's favorite board game, a love letter to unbridled capitalism and — for better or worse — the impulses that make our free-market society tick. But behind the myth of the game's creation is an untold tale of theft, obsession and corporate double-dealing. Part detective story, part sharp social commentary and part pop-culture celebration, Ruthless: Monopoly's Secret History presents the fascinating true story behind America's favorite game. Contrary to the folksy legend spread by Parker Brothers, Monopoly's secret history is a surprising saga that features a radical feminist, Lizzie Magie. a community of Quakers in Atlantic City, America's greatest game company, and an unemployed Depression-era engineer. According to the official origin story, during the Great Depression, an amateur inventor named Charles Darrow sketched out the now-famous Monopoly board on a piece of oilcloth on his kitchen table. His game became a best-seller, Darrow became a wealthy man, and Parker Brothers was saved from bankruptcy. It was a classic American success story. But it wasn't true. The real story behind the creation of the game might never have come to light if it weren't for the determination of an economics professor and impassioned anti-monopolist named Ralph Anspach. Director and writer Stephen Ives joins us to talk about his own journey to unlock the vault of obfuscation and corporate greed regarding the forgotten history of this distinctively American rite of passage / iconic board game. To watch go to: pbs.org/americanexperience/ruthless-monopoly Written and directed by Stephen Ives and executive produced by Cameo George, Ruthless: Monopoly's Secret History premieres on AMERICAN EXPERIENCE on Monday, February 20, 9:00-10:00 p.m. ET (check local listings) on PBS, PBS.org and the PBS App.

Welcome to November 19, 2022 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate catching a bubbly buzz and some friendly competition. Here in North America more than 90 percent of us enjoy caffeine every single day. But not all of us enjoy tea or coffee. If you love the buzz of caffeinated soda you can thank a German Chemist who first isolated caffeine from coffee beans in 1819. In England, Joseph Priestly discovered how to create carbonation, which was useful for medicinal tonics that later became known as sodas. This method of infusing water with carbon dioxide is more popular than ever thanks to the addition of caffeine. On National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day, we celebrate the satisfying combination that most of us could not do without.   Have you ever wondered why the playing pieces for Monopoly are so random? You can thank a bunch of kids for that. The classic board game Monopoly was invented in the 1930s by Charles Darrow and based on the properties and street names of Atlantic City, New Jersey. When it came to the playing pieces, he asked his nieces for help.

Monopoly, a popular family board game, was invented by Charles Darrow who first sold the game in local Philadelphia department stores. The Monopoly board is based on Atlantic City, New Jersey locations. The point of the game is to buy up property, stay out of jail, and bankrupt your opponents. What started as a socialist parable turned into a capitalist dream, thanks to a theft, repackaging, and Wanamaker's department store.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Jumat, 12 Agustus 2022 "Sebab bagi Allah tidak ada yang mustahil." (Lukas 1:37) Renungan: Suatu ketika ada seorang pemuda berusia 20 tahunan bermimpi bahwa suatu hari nanti ia akan menjadi seorang jutawan. Ia sadar bahwa impian adalah sesuatu yang mampu membangkitkan motivasi dan memberikan arah bagi kehidupannya. Impian ini kemudian diceritakan kepada sang kekasihnya. Beberapa waktu kemudian mereka menikah. Sayangnya tidak lama kemudian terjadi krisis ekonomi yang parah. Masa depresi besar tiba. Pasangan ini kemudian mengalami berbagai peristiwa menyedihkan dalam kehidupan mereka, mulai dari kehilangan pekerjaan dan mobil, rumah yang digadaikan hingga tabungan yang kian menipis dari hari ke hari. Sang pemuda ini mengalami frustasi luar biasa. Ia sering duduk termenung seorang diri. Ia bahkan menyarankan agar istrinya meninggalkan dia. Ia merasa tidak mampu lagi menjadi suami yang baik. Ia merasa telah gagal dalam hidupnya. Siapa sangka sang istri justru tidak kehilangan harapan sedikitpun. Sang istri yang penuh kasih sayang ini selalu dekat dan menguatkannya. Dengan tidak bosan-bosannya ia meyakinkan sang suami bahwa impian untuk menjadi jutawan itu belum mati dan mereka pasti bisa mencapainya bersama-sama suatu hari kelak. Istrinya berkata, "Suamiku, kita harus tetap melakukan sesuatu agar impian kita untuk menjadi jutawan itu tetap hidup." Sang suami menjawab, "Tetap hidup? Impian kita telah mati! Kita telah gagal!" Sang istri tetap tidak mau percaya bahwa impian itu telah mati. Ia bahkan sama sekali tidak bersedia untuk mengubur impian tersebut. Untuk tetap menjaga impian tersebut ia mengajak sang suami merancang apa yang akan mereka lakukan jika suatu saat nanti mereka menjadi jutawan. Keduanya lalu mulai melakukan hal ini setiap kali selesai makan malam. Waktu terus berlalu dan mereka masih saja melakukan kegiatan yang sama. Suatu hari sang suami mendapatkan sebuah ide brilian menciptakan permainan uang, yakni barang-barang apa saja yang akan dibeli jika seseorang memiliki uang, misalnya tanah rumah, gedung dan sebagainya. Gagasan itu terus mereka matangkan. Mereka menambahkan papan permainan, dadu, kartu, rumah-rumah kecil, hotel-hotel kecil dan sebagainya. Apakah kita sudah bisa menebak permainan itu? Ya tepat! Permainan itu bernama monopoli. Begitulah ceritanya bagaimana Charles Darrow dan istrinya, Ester menciptakan permainan tersebut. Permainan ini kemudian dijual kepada seorang pengusaha dengan harga satu juta dolar dan impian Jadi jutawan pun terwujud. Hal yang bisa kita pelajari dari cerita ini adalah, "Jangan biarkan mimpi kita padam hanya karena datangnya cobaan." Impian selalu mungkin terjadi, apalagi bagi kita yang percaya kepada Tuhan. Terkadang justru di balik pencobaan atau masalah yang sedang terjadi ada berkat yang tersembunyi dari Bapa di surga. Jadi, ketika kita sedang mengalami masalah dan percobaan, yakinkan pada diri kita sendiri bahwa itu pertanda impian kita sudah dekat. Lalu hempaskan cobaan itu dan raih impian kita, karena bagi Tuhan tidak ada yang mustahil. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, jadikanlah hidupku berguna bagi sesamaku, sehingga kehadiranku memiliki dampak positif. Amin. (Dod).

For thousands of years, humans have been making and playing what we know today as board games.  Sometimes the boards were drawn in the dirt or woven from cloth, however the essence of the modern day tabletop games most certainly have their roots in ancient times, spread far throughout the world.  This episode is about ancient games all the way up to the Milton Bradley and Parker Bros. days of glory. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/talkstupid2me)

Cada 19 de marzo se celebra el Día del Monopoly, uno de los juegos de mesa más populares y vendidos del mundo. Aprovechando la celebración, es necesario escarbar en la verdadera historia de este juego, basado en la compra, venta e intercambio de bienes raíces, para situar los acontecimientos en su justo contexto. La idea original de este entretenimiento, que hizo millonario y mundialmente famoso a Charles Darrow, fue, en realidad, de una mujer: la audaz y emprendedora ingeniera Elizabeth Magie. Edurne Baz se sumerge en la historia de la verdadera y desconocida creadora del Monopoly.

El Monopoly, ese juego de mesa que tanta gente tiene en su casa, es una auténtica oda al capitalismo. Cada jugador compite por ser el más rico, pero sobre todo, por arruinar a todos los demás. Se compran calles, casas, hoteles, la compañía del agua y de la luz, estaciones de tren, lo peor que te puede pasar es pagar impuestos... y hasta puedes llegar a librarte de la cárcel si pagas.El juego, quizá el más vendido de la historia, fue creado por Charles Darrow, un vendedor de calefactores domésticos que estaba en paro por culpa de la Gran Depresión. Lo fabricaba artesanalmente en su casa, con la ayuda de su mujer y su hijo, con trozos de hule y cartulina. Esas primeras versiones tuvieron tanto éxito que tuvo que encargar la producción a una imprenta de Pensilvania, ya con su clásico tablero de cartón. Patentó la idea en 1935. Y ese mismo año, tras varios intentos, le vendió los derechos a la juguetera Parker Brothers, ahora propiedad de Hasbro.Dice el Libro Guiness de los Récords que más de 500 millones de personas han jugado al Monopoly en el mundo. Y Darrow, efectivamente, acabó haciéndose inmensamente rico. Un trabajador en paro que se hace millonario, una historia de superación perfecta como epílogo para hablar de capitalismo.Si no fuera porque en realidad el Monopoly está inspirado, o copiado, de 'El juego del terrateniente', creado y patentado por Elisabeth Maggie más de 30 años antes. Y el espíritu de aquel juego era todo lo contrario.Lizzie Maggie era inventora, poeta, feminista y muy de izquierdas, y en 1903 lanza 'The Landords Game'. Su objetivo era mostrar los peligros de acumular grandes sumas de dinero a expensas de los demás, los problemas que generaba la desigualdad de ingresos. Para ello, el juego consistía en un tablero con un circuito, algo muy novedoso para la época, lleno de calles a la venta, y desarrolló dos reglamentos, uno anti-monopolios, y el otro monopolista. Con el primero, cada vez que un jugador compraba una de esas calles tenía que pagar impuestos, y ese dinero se repartía entre el resto de jugadores. Y el juego se acababa cuando el jugador que había empezado con menos dinero lograba duplicarlo. ¡Todos ganaban!Con el segundo reglamento, el monopolista, los jugadores debían comprar propiedades y cobrarles a todos los que caían en ellas, y el ganador era el que lograba arruinar al resto de jugadores. Sí, este reglamento coincide con el del Monopoly. El objetivo, explicaba la propia Maggie, era que los jugadores vivieran en sus propias carnes una demostración práctica del sistema de acaparamiento de tierras, así como sus resultados y consecuencias. Y que comprendieran las consecuencias que podía provocar los diferentes planteamientos de la propiedad. Hay que tener en cuenta que hablamos de la época gloriosa de los monopolios del ferrocarril, el acero o el petróleo. En este sentido, en una entrevista, la propia Maggie mostró su deseo de que "en poco tiempo, los hombres y las mujeres descubrieran que son pobres porque Carnegie y Rockefeller, tal vez, tienen más de lo que saben qué hacer con él".Con el juego, Maggie en realidad trataba de reflejar y difundir las ideas de Henry George, un economista de la época, muy de izquierdas, que conoció a través de un libro que le regaló su padre, también un destacado activista antimonopolios. La base de la teoría de George era la defensa de la importancia de cobrar impuestos, y de reinventir lo recaudado en el bien común.El juego acabó teniendo relativo éxito, sobre todo entre los intelectuales de la Costa Este y de las grandes universidades del país. Tanto que se acabaron haciendo diferentes versiones del mismo. En la década de los 30, Darrow descubrió una de esas versiones en un encuentro con amigos. Le impactó tanto el juego que acabó desarrollando su propia versión, a la que llamó Monopoly, y es la que acabó vendiendo a Parker Brothers.Las versiones de 'El juego del terrateniente' también llegaron a otros países. En España, por ejemplo, tuvo mucho éxito El Palé, con las calles de Madrid. La empresa editora acabó en juicio con los propietarios de los derechos, que se resolvió con la llegada a España del Monopoly original, de mano de Borrás. Detrás llegaron numerosas versiones basadas en las calles de otras ciudades de España, otro basado en todas las ciudades, de la Unión Europea... cualquier país que se precie tiene su propia edición. Y ya hasta hay versiones digitales, online...Hasta Cuba tuvo su propia versión apócrifa, llamada Deuda Eterna, donde los jugadores no hacían de empresarios que buscaban enriquecerse, sino que hacían el papel de gobiernos de países del tercer mundo, cuyo objetivo era derrotar al FMI.Por si fuera poco, y por si Maggie no hubiera tenido suficientes disgustos con lo que ha acabado siendo su obra si hubiera vivido para verlo, han salido versiones de sagas cinematográficas, de empresas... ¡Hasta McDonald's tiene su propio juego! Hoy en día sigue siendo uno de los juegos de mesa más vendidos del mundo. De hecho, durante la pandemia, su compra se disparó. No hay ningún rastro en él de la idea original de Maggie, no tiene ningún espíritu pedagógico, y el ganador es el que logra arruinar a los demás.

Welcome to November 19, 2021 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate catching a bubbly buzz and some friendly competition. Here in North America more than 90 percent of us enjoy caffeine every single day. But not all of us enjoy tea or coffee. The rest of us can thank a German Chemist who first isolated caffeine from coffee beans in 1819. Man-made carbonation was first discovered by Joseph Priestly in an English brewery and folks began using it for medicinal tonics that later became known as sodas. Today this method of infusing water with carbon dioxide is more popular than ever thanks to the addition of caffeine. On National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day, we celebrate the satisfying combination that most of us could not do without.   Have you ever wondered why the playing pieces for Monopoly are so random? You can thank a bunch of kids for that. The classic board game Monopoly was invented in the 1930s by Charles Darrow and based on the properties and street names of Atlantic City, New Jersey. When it came to the playing pieces, he asked his nieces for help. And they picked through metal charms from a bracelet to create the bizarre collection that includes an iron, a race car, a thimble, and a top hat. Little did they know how many people would fight over the race car over the years. On National Play Monopoly Day, you may enjoy an overly competitive game, just don't forget the spirit of fun for which it was invented!  I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson. Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day.

The game lacked many of its core promised features when it launched, resulting in heavy fan backlash. Within two years of its rollout, the tide started turning in No Man's Sky's favor, thanks in large part to updates that transformed the experience. NEXT counted as the first of such changes, ushering in multiplayer gameplay options that Hello Games teased in the lead up to launch. This particular update also overhauled the graphics and introduced refined base-building mechanics. Hello Games' efforts didn't stop there either; as such, the redemption arc for No Man's Sky has been rather impressive to watch unfold.

A 1996 American post-apocalyptic action film co-written, co-scored, and directed by John Carpenter, co-written and produced by Debra Hill and Kurt Russell, with Russell also starring as Snake Plissken. A sequel to Escape from New York, Escape from L.A. co-stars Steve Buscemi, Stacy Keach, Bruce Campbell, and Pam Grier. The film gained a strong cult following. The film was in development for over 10 years. At one point, a script was commissioned in 1987 and was written by screenwriter Coleman Luck, with Dino De Laurentiis's company producing. Carpenter later described the script as "too light, too campy". In time, Carpenter and Kurt Russell got together to write with their long-time collaborator Debra Hill. Carpenter insists that Russell's persistence allowed the film to be made, since "Snake Plissken was a character he loved and wanted to play again." At the beginning of the film, Kurt Russell wears his costume from the original film, which still fits after fifteen years. The film takes place in 2013.10th August 2021 – 60th Anniversary of Operation Ranch Hand, spraying an estimated 20 million US gallons (76,000 m3) of defoliants and herbicides over rural areas of South Vietnam in an attempt to deprive the Viet Cong of food and vegetation cover - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Ranch_HandOperation Ranch Hand was a U.S. military operation during the Vietnam War, lasting from 1962 until 1971. Largely inspired by the British use of 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D (Agent Orange) during the Malayan Emergency in the 1950s, it was part of the overall herbicidal warfare program during the war called "Operation Trail Dust". Ranch Hand involved spraying an estimated 20 million U.S. gallons (76,000 m3) of defoliants and herbicides over rural areas of South Vietnam in an attempt to deprive the Viet Cong of food and vegetation cover. Areas of Laos and Cambodia were also sprayed to a lesser extent. Nearly 20,000 sorties were flown between 1961 and 1971. The herbicides were sprayed by the U.S. Air Force flying C-123s using the call sign "Hades". The planes were fitted with specially developed spray tanks with a capacity of 1,000 U.S. gallons (4 m3) of herbicides. A plane sprayed a swath of land that was 80 meters wide and 16 kilometers (10 mi) long in about 4½ minutes, at a rate of about 3 U.S. gallons per acre (3 m3/km2). Sorties usually consisted of three to five aircraft flying side by side. 95% of the herbicides and defoliants used in the war were sprayed by the U.S. Air Force as part of Operation Ranch Hand. The remaining 5% were sprayed by the U.S. Chemical Corps, other military branches, and the Republic of Vietnam using hand sprayers, spray trucks, helicopters and boats, primarily around U.S. military installations. The use of herbicides in the Vietnam War was controversial from the beginning, particularly for crop destruction. The scientific community began to protest the use of herbicides in Vietnam as early as 1964, when the Federation of American Scientists objected to the use of defoliants. In 1967, seventeen Nobel laureates and 5,000 other scientists signed a petition asking for the immediate end to the use of herbicides in Vietnam. According to the Vietnamese government, the US program exposed approximately 4.8 million Vietnamese people to Agent Orange, resulted in 400,000 deaths due to a range of cancers and other ailments. The Vietnamese population has suffered a range of ailments with three million Vietnamese people suffering health problems, one million birth defects caused directly by exposure to Agent Orange, and 24% of the area of Vietnam being defoliated.12th August 2021 – 40th birthday of the IBM 5150 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Personal_Computer#DebutOn August 12, 1981, Don Esteridge, who was unknown at the time, announced the release of the new personal computer created by his company. The head of development at IBM Entry Level Systems presented the 5150, or IBM PC, a concept that would revolutionize the computer industry forever. The machine was based on open architecture and a substantial market of third-party peripherals, expansion cards and software grew up rapidly to support it. The PC had a substantial influence on the personal computer market. The specifications of the IBM PC became one of the most popular computer design standards in the world, and the only significant competition it faced from a non-compatible platform throughout the 1980s was from the Apple Macintosh product line. The majority of modern personal computers are distant descendants of the IBM PC.Pricing started at $1,565 for a configuration with 16K RAM, Color Graphics Adapter, and no disk drives. The price was designed to compete with comparable machines in the market. For comparison, the Datamaster, announced two weeks earlier as IBM's least expensive computer, cost $10,000. IBM's marketing campaign licensed the likeness of Charlie Chaplin's character "The Little Tramp" for a series of advertisements based on Chaplin's movies, played by Billy Scudder. The PC was IBM's first attempt to sell a computer through retail channels rather than directly to customers. Reception was overwhelmingly positive, with sales estimates from analysts suggesting billions of dollars in sales over the next few years, and the IBM PC immediately became the talk of the entire computing industry. Dealers were overwhelmed with orders, including customers offering pre-payment for machines with no guaranteed delivery date. By the time the machine was shipping, the term "PC" was becoming a household name.Remembrances10th August 2010 - David L. Wolper - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_L._WolperAmerican television and film producer, responsible for shows such as Roots, The Thorn Birds, North and South, L.A. Confidential, and Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971). He was awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the 57th Academy Awards in 1985 for his work producing the opening and closing ceremonies of the XXIIIrd Olympiad, Los Angeles 1984 as well as helping to bring the games to L.A. His 1971 film (as executive producer) about the study of insects, The Hellstrom Chronicle, won an Academy Award. On March 13, 1974, one of his crews filming a National Geographic history of Australopithecus at Mammoth Mountain Ski Area was killed when their Sierra Pacific Airlines Corvair 440 slammed into the White Mountains shortly after takeoff from Eastern Sierra Regional Airport in Bishop, California, killing all 35 on board, including 31 Wolper crew members. The filmed segment was recovered in the wreckage and was broadcast in the television series Primal Man. The cause of the crash remains unsolved. In 1988, Wolper was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame. For his work on television, he had received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He died from congestive heart disease and complications of Parkinson's disease at the age of 82 in Beverly Hills, California.Famous Birthdays10th August 1889 – Charles Darrow - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_DarrowAmerican who modified the design of Lizzie Magie's original invention The Landlord's Game. He became the first millionaire game designer in history, and although Magie patented her invention she received only $500. Parker Brothers falsely credited Darrow as the original inventor. While Darrow eventually sold his version of Monopoly to Parker Brothers, claiming it to be his own invention, modern historians credit Darrow as just one of the game's final developers. Monopoly is a board game which focuses on the acquisition of fictional real estate titles, with the incorporation of elements of chance. After losing his job at a sales company following the Stock Market Crash of 1929, Darrow worked at various odd jobs. Seeing his neighbors and acquaintances play a board game in which the object was to buy and sell property, he decided to publish his own version of the game, with the help of his first son, William, and his wife Esther. Darrow marketed his version of the game under the name Monopoly. In truth, Darrow was just one of many people in the American Midwest and East Coast who had been playing a game of buying and trading property. The game's direct ancestor was The Landlord's Game, created by Elizabeth Magie. The Darrow family initially made their game sets on flexible, round pieces of oilcloth instead of rigid, square carton. Charles drew the designs of the properties with drafting pens, and his son and wife filled in the spaces with colors and made the title deed cards and Chance and Community Chest cards. In 1970, three years after Darrow's death, Atlantic City placed a commemorative plaque in his honor on The Boardwalk, near the corner of Park Place. In 1973 Ralph Anspach, an economics professor at San Francisco State University, produced Anti-Monopoly, a game similar to Monopoly, and for this was sued by Parker Brothers. He was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.Events of Interest10th August 1960 – Dinosaurus! was released - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053768/ On this day in 1960, it was 'Jurassic Park' all over again with the release of Dinosaurus! The feature starred Ward Ramsey and Kristina Hanson, and here's the plot summary: "After undersea explosions near a Caribbean island, prehistoric creatures are unleashed on the unsuspecting population. Freed from his watery tomb, as well, is a very friendly Neanderthal man who proceeds to befriend a local orphan boy. The boy, Neanderthal and irritated dinosaur make for an interesting dramatic climax." The leading role was intended for Steve McQueen, who starred in The Blob two years earlier, also produced by Harris and directed by Yeaworth. McQueen passed on the film to make The Magnificent Seven instead. The dinosaurs were filmed using the technique of stop-motion animation as well as puppets for close-ups. The film promulgates the naïve idea that herbivorous animals (such as the brontosaurus) are not dangerous (a similar claim was made in Spielberg's 'Jurassic Park', 1993). The cape buffalo is one of the most aggressive and dangerous animals in Africa (and only weighs about 5% of what a brontosaurus is estimated to have weighed). Marcel Delgado was given less than half the time originally agreed upon to create the dinosaur models used in the film. The studio initially agreed to give him five to six weeks, as he requested, but two weeks later he was told that they would begin production on Tuesday. When Betty is captured by the neanderthal and taken to his cave, she's wearing a white dress and a pearl necklace. Combined with her red hair, she bears a striking resemblance to Wilma Flintstone, one of the stars of the TV cartoon series "The Flintstones" (1960), which would debut on American television one month after this movies US release (coincidentally, Betty is the name of Wilma's best friend).10th August 1990 – The Magellan space probe reaches Venus. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magellan_(spacecraft)#Orbital_encounter_of_Venus On August 10, 1990, the American Magellan probe, named after the explorer Ferdinand Magellan, arrived at its orbit around the planet and started a mission of detailed radar mapping at a frequency of 2.38 GHz. It began the orbital insertion maneuver which placed the spacecraft into a three-hour, nine minute, elliptical orbit that brought the spacecraft 295-kilometers from the surface at about 10 degrees North during the periapsis and out to 7762-kilometers during apoapsis. During each orbit, the space probe captured radar data while the spacecraft was closest to the surface, and then transmit it back to Earth as it moved away from Venus. This maneuver required extensive use of the reaction wheels to rotate the spacecraft as it imaged the surface for 37-minutes and as it pointed toward Earth for two hours. The primary mission intended for the spacecraft to return images of at least 70 percent of the surface during one Venusian day, which lasts 243 Earth days as the planet slowly spins. To avoid overly-redundant data at the highest and lowest latitudes, the Magellan probe alternated between a Northern-swath, a region designated as 90 degrees north latitude to 54 degrees south latitude, and a Southern-swath, designated as 76 degrees north latitude to 68 degrees south latitude. However, due to periapsis being 10 degrees north of the equatorial line, imaging the South Pole region was unlikely. The resulting maps were comparable to visible-light photographs of other planets, and are still the most detailed in existence. Magellan greatly improved scientific understanding of the geology of Venus: the probe found no signs of plate tectonics, but the scarcity of impact craters suggested the surface was relatively young, and there were lava channels thousands of kilometers long.IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/Email - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comSupport via Podhero- https://podhero.com/podcast/449127/nerds-amalgamated See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Wir springen ins Jahr 1904 in die USA. Elizabeth Magie bekommt ein Patent für das Brettspiel „The Landlord’s Game“, mit dem sie nicht nur den Kapitalismus ihrer Zeit kritisiert, sondern auch eine andere Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftstheorie verbreiten möchte: Das Single-Tax-Prinzip nach Henry George. Das Spiel verbreitet sich in den folgenden Jahrzehnten in unterschiedlichen Communities, etwa in US-Colleges oder den Quäkern in Atlantic City. So entdeckt es auch Charles Darrow, der eine Variante des Spiels als „Monopoly“ der Spielefirma Parker Brothers anbietet. Darrow galt daher lange Zeit als Erfinder des Spiels, das heute wie kein anderes für den Kapitalismus steht und zu den erfolgreichsten Brettspielen überhaupt zählt.

    It's called a mindset because you get to choose how you want to 'set' your 'mind.' For us at Life By Design this idea was an instant game changer. It means that you get to dictate the pace of your life, it means that you get to be in control.    To be totally clear, and to play devil's advocate for that last statement, it is true, nobody completely controls their lives. We interact with people whom we can't control, the outside world is mostly unpredictable, and crap hit's the fan for all of us. So how can you be in control? You are in control because you get to choose how you respond to the situations you are dealt.   Mentally tough people respond differently.   Charles Darrow, who lost everything during the 1929 stock market crash leading into the great depression, did not succumb to the malaise and fear of being without money, he created a game about losing money, and how to make more called Monopoly, I'm sure you've heard of it. I'm also sure you know that Monopoly still to this day, sells about 20,000 units per year.    The purpose of this podcast is to review the success.com article and give the Life By Design perspective on this list of 15. Do they apply and how can you leverage them in your life.   What I Covered A play by play, step by step review of the success.com article. Which ones I liked, which ones I didn't and why. How this all applies to you and how you can leverage it and grow.

The report this week focuses on Elizabeth “Lizzie” Magie and a truly hidden story from history. We all know the world-famous board game Monopoly, but do we really know the story behind it? The official story is a rags to riches story: Charles Darrow, unemployed and out of money, dreamt up the unique game that went on to be a mega hit. In reality, a fascinating woman named Lizzie Magie had a major part to play in the story 30 years earlier. This is the story of Monopoly!

5. listopadu 1935 začala americká společnost Parker Bros prodávat nejznámější deskovou hru všech dob - Monopoly. Podle společnosti je tvůrcem hry, ve které se snažíme přivést ostatní hráče k bankrotu, Charles Darrow. Autorství slavné deskovky je ale zamotanější. Prvopočátky hry Monopoly totiž sahají už do roku 1902.

What kind of capitalist are you? Did you play Monopoly for hours with your family in hopes of owning all the land and hoarding all the money? Guess what? That's not how the game was originally meant to be played. And remember the sweet story of the inventor of Monopoly, Charles Darrow, a poor man, destitute and desperate to support his wife and children on a lowly electrician's salary-only to come to amazing riches once he invented and sold the exciting game of Monopoly to the Parker Brothers monopoly? That's not how the game was originally invented either.  It was all the works of the brilliant Lizzie Magie, who owned the patent for the Landlord's Game-the original monopoly game, which by the way included the anti-monopoly version.  Join us for the tale of Lizzie, a woman who is very likely related to Beth, and a woman who said one of our most favorite quotes ever, "I'm glad I was taught how to think, not what to think."

In the 1920s, one of Atlantic City's famous landmarks -- Lucy the Elephant -- was rumored to be a signal post for incoming bootleggers hoping to thwart Prohibition.

Monopoly, arguably the most-famous board game, was invented by Charles Darrow. But many attribute the original idea to Lizzie Magie, a Quaker and the creator of the Landlord's Game, which bears... The latest in science, culture, and history from Smithsonian Channel.

To close out Women’s History Month, we talk with Mary Pilon, whose new book reveals the true history of the invention of Monopoly. The story Parker Brothers tells is such common knowledge that it’s included as an insert in every Monopoly set – Charles Darrow, down on his luck, invents the game in his basement, […]

The goal of the game Monopoly is to become a real estate tycoon. But it originally was designed to teach the evils of monopolies and the virtues of something called the Single Tax.
