Podcast appearances and mentions of elizabeth magie

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.

Monopoly was originally based on a board game designed by Elizabeth Magie in 1902 called “The Landlord's Game.” The idea behind the invention was to demonstrate that an economy that appreciates wealth creation is better than where monopolists have few restrictions. in 1935 Parker Brothers released the game, it had only two versions; regular and deluxe. In 1991, when Hasbro overtook Parker Brothers, they developed many new versions of the game including Super Mario Bros, Friends, National Park, Millenials Disney and many more... and in 2008...the first-ever mobile edition of Monopoly was released for the iPhone. Since then, many mobile- and P.C. versions of the game have come out.

»Družabna igra, pri kateri se trguje z nepremičninami, navedenimi na igralni deski,« tako spletni Fran definira monopoli. Igro, ki je danes prevedena v 37 jezikov, licenco za igro so kupili v 130 državah, po svetu pa je poznanih več kot 300 različic monopolija. Naslednje leto bo uradno praznovala 90 let obstoja, ampak v resnici je precej starejša. O monopoliju smo se pogovarjali s prof. dr. Rajkom Muršičem z Oddelka za etnologijo in kulturno antropologijo na ljubljanski Filozofski fakulteti.

Elizabeth Magie Phillips widmete ihr Leben dem Kampf für soziale Gerechtigkeit und wirtschaftliche Reformen. Als junge Frau zog sie nach Washington D.C., wo sie als Stenografin arbeitete und ein tiefes Verständnis für wirtschaftliche Ungerechtigkeiten entwickelte. Diese Erfahrungen inspirierten sie zur Entwicklung von „The Landlord's Game“, einem Brettspiel, das dazu gedacht war, die Ungerechtigkeiten des kapitalistischen Systems aufzuzeigen und Georges Ideen zu verbreiten. Trotz des anfänglichen Mangels an kommerziellem Erfolg legte ihr Spiel den Grundstein für das spätere, weltberühmte Monopoly.Phillips setzte ihre pädagogischen und politischen Aktivitäten fort, selbst als das von ihr entwickelte Spiel von anderen kommerzialisiert wurde und sie um Anerkennung ihrer Rolle kämpfen musste. Sie erhielt letztlich eine geringe Entschädigung von den Parker Brothers. Phillips verstarb 1948, doch ihr Vermächtnis als Erfinderin und Aktivistin lebt in denen weiter, die sich heute für eine gerechte Gesellschaft einsetzen."Historische Heldinnen" lässt mithilfe von Künstlicher Intelligenz wichtige Frauen der Weltgeschichte auf ihr eigenes Leben zurückblicken. Selbstbewusst erzählen sie uns von ihrem Mut und ihrer Durchsetzungskraft.Viertausendhertz 2024 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

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.

It's a snowy, blustery day in Minnesota, so today's episode was recorded remotely which means frequent fur baby interruptions and drinking the cold away! First, Kelley tells the story of Fanny Blankers-Koen, a woman who had the totally unrelatable problem of  being too good at too many sports. She would pursue running and use her athleticism to reach international stardom and to tell the Nazis to go to hell! Then, Emily brings another daughter of the corn into the spotlight with Lizzie Magie! Lizzie believed in a more equitable economic system which led her to create a board game that would become the third most popular game on the planet.

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.

LISTENER HIGHLIGHT! * Jim from Pennsylvania MAIL BAG! - Episode 21 feedback - So grateful to @CampingMeeple's (https://www.instagram.com/campingmeeple/) response to episode 21 - how to start a board game group:  "We are trying to keep a Board game day happening more often at our church, but it was actually interesting listening to your last episode because it's generally hobby people at ours and you were talking about card games and stuff a lot. I am a relatively newer convert to hobby games, but my addiction started at one of these events. Interestingly, I attended one a few years prior and it didn't stick the same way. But just like you said it generally needs to be accessible games not heavy and the last time I brought my 10 year old." - This episode - @Reengineerthegame (https://www.instagram.com/Reengineer_the_game/) offers this response to our question about spiritual lessons learned from cooperative games: "Humility is the first one that comes to mind. You can be humbled in competitive games by being out played but in cooperative games you can choose humility over being an “alpha player” or simply get beat by the game." What is a cooperative game? You win as a group against the board, and not against each other You share information and ideas, and sometimes even resources You have a shared objective (achieve a certain amount of goals) You coordinate your moves and plan out as a group what to do Note the original Monopoly game had 2 rules-sets, and the second one (that we don't play anymore) was cooperative. From Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_board_game): In 1903 Elizabeth Magie patented "The Landlord's Game", inspired by the principles and philosophy of Henry George. The Landlords' and designed as a protest against the monopolists of the time, the game is considered to be the game from which Monopoly was largely derived. In it, Magie had two rule-sets - the Monopoly rules, in which players all vied to accrue the largest revenue and crush their opponents, and a co-operative set. Her dualistic approach was a teaching tool meant to demonstrate that the co-operative rules were morally superior. Spiritual Lessons Learning to take turns and moves that help the group and not yourself. Learning that diversity of gifts is important. Many cooperative games assign roles with special powers. Everyone has a different role to play. See 1 Corinthians 12 & Romans 12 in the Christian Bible. Encouraging everyone to participate in a low-stress way; cooperative games allow players to give and receive advice on what to do in a turn. The importance of trusting others' choices. Sometimes we have to let others fail in order to respect that actions and choices. Individual achievement can feel different from communal achievement. A shared victory is much sweeter in the end, don't you think? NEXT EPISODE - KEVIN: REFLECTIONS ON TEACHING SPIRITUALITY & BOARD GAMES! THANK YOU!

Here's a simple challenge: name a famous inventor. Perhaps Renaissance polymath Leonardo da Vinci springs to mind. Or the pioneer of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell. But you might be hard-pressed to name many female inventors, even though women are behind some of the most widely used technologies in the modern world.这是一个简单的挑战：命名一位著名的发明家。也许文艺复兴时期的博学家列奥纳多·达·芬奇会浮现在脑海中。或者电话的先驱亚历山大·格雷厄姆·贝尔。但是你可能很难说出许多女性发明家的名字，尽管女性是现代世界一些最广泛使用的技术的幕后推手。For example, where would we be without the windscreen wiper? Back on a freezing winter's day in 1902, Mary Anderson was travelling by tram through New York city. Snow was falling, forcing the driver to stop repeatedly and get out to clear it. Each time the door opened, Mary suffered a gust of sub-zero air. She had a brainwave: why not make some kind of a rubber blade that could be operated from inside the vehicle? And that's exactly what she did. 例如，如果没有挡风玻璃雨刷器，我们会在哪里？回到 1902 年一个寒冷的冬日，玛丽·安德森乘坐电车穿越纽约市。雪在下，迫使司机反复停车并下车清理。每次门打开，玛丽都会遭受一阵低于零的空气。她有一个脑波：为什么不制造某种可以在车内操作的橡胶刀片呢？而这正是她所做的。Let's step in from freezing New York for our next invention. The dishwasher dates back even earlier to the 19th Century, and to the dinner parties thrown by a lady called Josephine Cochrane. As a frequent host, she wanted a machine that could wash dishes faster than people. Her response was to develop what was to become the first commercially successful dishwasher. Interestingly, innovation was in her blood: her grandfather had invented the steamboat. 让我们从寒冷的纽约踏入我们的下一个发明。洗碗机的历史可以追溯到更早的 19 世纪，以及一位名叫 Josephine Cochrane 的女士举办的晚宴。作为常客，她想要一台洗碗速度比人还快的机器。她的反应是开发成为第一台商业上成功的洗碗机。有趣的是，她的血液里流淌着创新：她的祖父发明了汽船。Need something to do while the dishwasher is whirring away? How about a round of Monopoly? One of the most popular board games around, the rules were first drawn up by a lady called Elizabeth Magie, and patented in 1904. Her intention was to create a game to highlight what she saw as the pitfalls of capitalism. It was originally called The Landlord's Game. 洗碗机运转时需要做点什么吗？一轮垄断怎么样？作为最受欢迎的棋盘游戏之一，规则首先由一位名叫伊丽莎白玛姬的女士制定，并于 1904 年获得专利。她的目的是创造一款游戏来突出她所看到的资本主义陷阱。它最初被称为房东的游戏。To an altogether different kind of innovation: Kevlar is the lightweight fibre used in bulletproof vests. The material is used by millions every day and has saved countless lives. The super tough fabric is also used in objects ranging from gloves to aeroplanes to wind turbines. Incredibly, its strength-to-weight ratio is five times higher than steel. Again, it was invented by a woman, the American chemist Stephanie Kwolek, in 1964. 一种完全不同的创新：Kevlar 是用于防弹背心的轻质纤维。该材料每天被数百万人使用，并挽救了无数生命。这种超坚韧的织物也用于从手套到飞机到风力涡轮机的各种物品。令人难以置信的是，它的强度重量比是钢的五倍。再一次，它是由一位女性、美国化学家 Stephanie Kwolek 在 1964 年发明的。Finally, one of the most important inventions of the 20th Century must surely be the computer programme. The world of programming is notoriously unbalanced in terms of gender. Men vastly outnumber women, and take home around 30% more pay than their female counterparts on average. But back in the 1940s and 50s, women were at the forefront of this new field. Grace Hopper is credited with inventing the first compiler in 1952, which serves as the bridge between code and the binary ones and zeros understood by computers.最后，20 世纪最重要的发明之一肯定是计算机程序。众所周知，编程世界在性别方面是不平衡的。男性的人数远远超过女性，平均而言，男性的工资比女性高出约 30%。但早在 1940 年代和 50 年代，女性就处于这一新领域的前沿。Grace Hopper 因在 1952 年发明了第一个编译器而受到赞誉，它充当了代码与计算机理解的二进制 1 和 0 之间的桥梁。词汇表polymath 博学者，博学的人spring to mind 突然呈现在脑海中pioneer 先锋hard-pressed （由于缺少时间）面临困难的where would we be without… 假如没有…我们将会是怎样的？windscreen wiper 雨刷器sub-zero 温度在零度以下的brainwave （突发的）灵感，妙计dishwasher 洗碗机throw (a party) 举办（聚会）in someone's blood 在某人的血液中，在骨子里whirr （洗衣机）发出嗡嗡声patent 注册专利权pitfall 陷阱bulletproof vest 防弹背心wind turbine 风力发电机notoriously 出了名地（负面），声名狼藉地gender 性别outnumber 在数量上压倒binary 二进位制

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.

Esta semana discutimos la historia e intención original del juego Monopoly, basado originalmente del "Landlord´s Game" de Elizabeth Magie.

Es steckt schon im Namen des Spiels: das Monopol. Hinter der Entwicklungsgeschichte von "Monopoly" steckt eine Monopolisierung. Dabei entstand das Brettspiel paradoxerweise ursprünglich, um vor einer solchen Monopolisierung zu warnen. Autorin: Isabel Schneider Von Isabel Schneider.

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. With the game now celebrating its fifth year anniversary, Hello Games has put out a short video looking back at all of the updates we've seen so far, along with a tease of what's coming next.9th August 2021 – 25th anniversary of Escape from L.A. - https://movieweb.com/escape-from-la-25th-anniversary/Stylized on-screen as John Carpenter's Escape from L.A. 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.

Episode discussion topics We're on the hunt for solutions and one or more of the various flavors of universal basic or supplemental income programs looms large. The more that MVP and RWJ look into these ideas, the more water they seem to hold and more potentially beneficial their side effects. They are even coining a new term and tagline for it: Citizen Seed Funding empowering generations to come. This idea aligns with the tenants of Doughnut Economics and is reminiscent of that comment regarding life having the propensity to leave conditions conducive to life. In this regard, seed funding would have the potential to be as restorative and empowering for generations of people in society, just as seeds beget life. We all deserve freedom. Part of being free is having your own agency to choose. That extends to the capitalist market systems we have in place. People should be empowered to a position of choice when it comes to whether or not to participate, under what conditions, and for how long. Today we're born into it and have to scramble for better odds (through relationships) and/or leverage (demanded skills), but it's not how it has to be. People can be born free to choose how and when to participate in the commercial economy. They can use it to serve a need and not become beholden to it. And we will participate in sufficient quantities, because it's quite lucrative, even with a universal basic or supplemental income feature installed. How's it work? It can work a multitude of ways, however for illustrative purposes, here's what it looks like: The government keeps depositing stimulus checks into people's accounts who make less than $40,000 USD. That's it. How do you pay for it? Again, a multitude of ways, but they should be limited to revenue streams that are not fickle or place an undue burden on economic activity. The easiest places are from wealth, estate transfer, and market activity (buy/sell) taxes. We'll be diving in more in the future. Then what? Just wait and see. As people start to become used to the stability of a seed income, they will begin taking new risks. We'll see new kinds of businesses, art projects, social projects, and communities bloom. People will go to school and re-tool in order to create and sustain new economic opportunities. We'll see a new economic floor established by sustained consumer spending. Many of our unbanked will open new accounts to receive and spend their funds and many former unbanked may open their own banks. Most importantly, homelessness and hunger will be reduced to a lower level than ever in history. All made possible through the deployment of seed funding. Do we have to have universal health care for it to work? NO. We do have to have viable healthcare marketplaces where people can ensure they use some seed funds for coverage. They may be eligible for additional assistance through state Medicaid programs without affecting the amount of seed funding received. Likewise, seed funding would have no bearing on qualification for other programs like Pell grants, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Disability, alimony, etc. Call to Action: Keep an eye out for all of the valuable activity that is currently unpaid. These are of the many things humans do without a financial motive. As a species, some behaviors are intrinsically motivated. Our very nature compels us to do things, not to be idle. Raising children is no small feat and we shortcut it drastically today due to "work-life" balance or single-parent households. Caring for our wise elders is another responsibility that requires a modicum of fortitude and today is mostly outsourced to the lowest bidder. Our time in those roles is valuable outside of and in support of the economy. Now imagine sustaining those human investments minus the financial stress of boom and bust. An improvement, no? Your hosts: Michael V. Piscitelli and Raymond Wong Jr. More info Minor notes: This is episode 26 despite MVP calling it 27 during the episode. Also, the term he was looking for was "Performance Art" in reference to Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. The History of the Monopoly is a nice synopsis of the genesis of the game including a feature on The Landlord's Game (same page), upon which it is based. One notable is the fact that the original (by Elizabeth Magie cira 1902, patented in 1904) featured two different set of rules: Monopoly and Anti-Monopoly and it was intended as a teaching tool to juxtaposition progressive policies against the lazie-fair status quo.

El 5 de enero de 1904, se registró en Estados Unidos la patente 748626, por un juego de mesa al que su inventora, Elizabeth Magie, llamó The Landlord's Game. Este juego fue el precursor del conocido Monopoly, y nació como una forma de exponer sus conclusiones sobre las ideas económicas de Henry George, ya que ella pensaba que el monopolio de tierras era una lacra para la economía, y la única manera de palear la situación monopolística era crear un impuesto especial sobre la propiedad privada.

Millennials get so much hate... and almost all of it is undeserved! You bet we're gonna bitch about it! Then we'll tell you about the real inventor of Monopoly that no one knows about.

Did you know that Monopoly had its origins in anti-monopolism? It’s called “The Landlord’s Game”, and activist game designer Elizabeth Magie created it in 1904 to teach the economic philosophies of Henry George. In this episode, we’ll explore the secret history of Monopoly with Mary Pilon, a journalist who started writing what she thought would […] The post You Can’t Monopolize Monopoly. appeared first on Fun Games with Serious People.

When you turn on your tv do you try to be bored? Of course not! That’s why you listen to the Pondering Nerds! We tell you about stupid theories like 5G radiation making you sick, or Monopoly being a fraud, or talented and bored people making viral videos. So much to cover. Don’t forget to check out Amazing Stories on your Smart TV of choice. Because like Lance says, “Amazing Stories seem like ideas Spielberg never got to make.”

Emma and Gil welcome accomplished designer Cole Wehrle, designer of Root, Oath, and Pax Pamir (Second Edition), back to the show (Cole previously appeared on Ludology 163 - A Pain in the Asymmetry). We discuss fairness in games. Has it been around for as long as we think it has? What can an "unfair" game do that other games can't? Cole is a staff designer at Leder Games, and co-founded  Wehrlegig Games with his brother Drew. SHOW NOTES 2m18s: You can watch Cole's GDC talk here. 12m02s: Learn more about Twilight Imperium (this is the most recent version, but there were previous versions with slightly different rulesets) 13m52s: Learn more about Memoir '44. 14m25s: Learn more about Scythe. 16m04s: Learn more about Blood Rage and Sushi Go! 19m30s: Gil remembers a bunch of Viking games in the mid-aughts. One of the biggest was Michael Kiesling's Vikings, whose gameplay, while clever, did little to evoke actual Vikings. 22m41s: The book Strike Four was recommended to me by Dennis Goodman, who is himself a baseball historian and rules expert, and has written a streamlined rulebook for the sport. 24m16s: The book Cole refers to is The Games Ethic and Imperialism (Sport in the Global Society) by J. A. Mangan. 25m14s: I'm referring to the book The Ball is Round: A Global History of Soccer/Football, by David Goldblatt. The exact title depends on if you buy the US or UK version; this link is to the US version. 27m07s: Cole refers to the book Making England Western, by Saree Makdisi. 27m33s: Thomas Arnold was headmaster of Rugby School from 1828, and was influential in reforming the British public school system. Tom Brown's School Days was written by Thomas Hughes and published in 1857, and popularized British public schools as a literary setting.  28m11s: If you're curious, here is the official 2019 NFL rulebook. If your eyes aren't crossed yet, here is the official 2019 MLB rulebook (though note Dennis Goodman's streamlined take on the rules of baseball, mentioned above). And to finish you off, here is the official ICC web page on all the Playing Conditions of every form of cricket (although to be fair, they have to handle all three major forms of the game - imagine if the NFL rulebook had to account for Canadian and Arena Football as well!) Side note: I also checked out the official Laws of World Rugby Union, and I was stunned to see how clearly-written they were! They are made to be read by a layperson, not a lawyer, and come with many video examples of rule violations. 30m42s: This is a good time to remind you to check out Scott Rogers' Biography of a Board Game last week for The Game of the Goose. It's not technically a Victorian board game - no one knows how old it is - but it's the template for many Victorian parlor games. (I wish we could say we planned these episodes to run consecutively, but it was just a happy coincidence!) 32m08s: We're discussing The Landlord's Game, by Elizabeth Magie  (interestingly, Hasbro still does not officially acknowledge Magie's role in the creation of Monopoly, perhaps for legal reasons) 32m56s: More like 150-175 years old, really. Most sports rules began getting formally codified in the mid-19th century (though cricket had already started getting codified in the 18th century). 33m14s: The Eton Wall Game is still played today. And yes, there's video of it! Note that Eton has a second code of football, the Eton Field Game, which is closer to soccer, but still contains many elements found in rugby. There's a video of the Eton Field Game  here. 36m34s: Cole is referring to Bernie De Koven and his book The Well-Played Game. He also refers to the games Acquire and Caylus. 37m23s: To Emma's point, Prussian college professor Johann Christian Ludwig Hellwig invented the first wargame in 1780, but it was Kriegsspiel, designed by Prussian nobleman George Leopold von Reisswitz in 1812 and refined by his soldier son Georg Heinrich Rudolf Johann von Reisswitz in 1824, that introduced realism and verisimilitude into the form. Note that these wargames were designed more for military training than recreation. 37m43s: H.G. Wells, who wrote many seminal science-fiction novels like The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds, was also a game designer. In his books Floor Games and Little Wars, he establishes rules for the first recreational wargames. (Also, the idea of games solving world problems is still alive, most notably by Jane McGonigal in her book Reality is Broken.) 38m53s: Alexander Pope's classic (albeit somewhat overly-dramatically-named) poem The Rape of the Lock. Read it here. 39m58s: Roger Caillois' Man, Play and Games, written in 1961, probably deserves its own episode. 42m00s: Hare and Tortoise is, of course, the first Spiel des Jahres winner. (On a related note, Scott's Biography of a Board Game about Eurogames is a really good listen on this subject.) Cole then mentions Die Macher and Catan. 46m20s: I did not come up with this "roll a die at the end of a game of Chess to see who wins" thought experiment, but I can't remember where I read it! Maybe Characteristics of Games? 47m29s: Relevant quote from Mike Selinker from Ludology 189 - Missing Selinker: "Frustration is a valuable, positive thing up to a point. You’ve just got to know where the table flip is." 48m08s: Cole is kind enough to mention Gil's forthcoming game High Rise after playing it at GDC 2019. Cole gave his talk on defending kingmaking; Gil gave his talk on how indirect interaction in games can be good. 52m21s: More info about Descent, Dark Venture, and Tomb. 59m30s: More info about Byzantine themes. 1h04m44s: More info about Liberté. 1h06m36s: More info about The History of Rome podcast. 1h08m58s: The political compass of Root, as suggested by Reddit user u/orionsbelt05.

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.

The forgotten inventor of the board game Monopoly--a tale of forgotten women and capitalist greed.

Comedians Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds examine, Elizabeth Magie, the woman who invented The Landlord's Game and what became of it. antimonopoly.comSOURCESTOUR DATESREDBUBBLE MERCH

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!

The board game Monopoly seems too complicated to have had one single inventor, right? Well, no. Elizabeth Magie invented it in the first few years of the 20th century, and called it The Landlords Game. But the original game was anti-landlord, and embodied many aspects of communitarianism. Find out about it, about Elizabeth Magie, and why it became “Monopoly” on this Woman Crush Wednesday!
