Friday of the First Week of Lent Saint of the Day: St. Matilda; Tenth Century daughter of Count Dietrich of Westphalia and Reinhild of Denmark; married Henry the Fowler, son of Duke Otto of Saxony, in the year 909; he succeeded his father as Duke in the year 912 and in 919 succeeded King Conrad I to the German throne; she was noted for her piety and charitable works; she was widowed in 936; she was severely criticized by her sons Otto and Henry for what they considered her extravagant charities, so she resigned her inheritance to them, and retired to her country home; in 955, she built three convents and a monastery; she was left in charge of the kingdom when Otto went to Rome in 962 to be crowned Emperor (often regarded as the beginning of the Holy Roman Empire); she spent most of the declining years at the convent at Nordhausen she had built; she died at the monastery at Quedlinburg on March 14, 968 Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 3/14/25 Gospel: Matthew 5:20-26
We've talked in the past about the communal focus the whole table can get when playing a board game. But is that communal focus a requirement to play a game? Can designers help nudge us toward that state of “buy in” or is it just something magical that happens once in a while? This week on the show, Steve, Rob and Evan attempt to find out!

Die Herrschaft der Ottonen war nicht nur die Herrschaft dreier Kaiser namens Otto, sondern eine echte Familienangelegenheit. Insbesondere die Frauen der Familie spielten bei der Herrschaftsausübung eine wichtige Rolle und führten phasenweise sogar die Geschicke des Reiches. Ohne Edith, Adelheid, Theophanu & Mathilde wären Otto I-III schnell in Schwierigkeiten gekommen.

Bereits seit zwei Jahren veranstaltet die Initiative „Reformation 2.0“ Demonstrationen am Reformationstag in der Lutherstadt Wittenberg. Als Redner war in diesem Jahr auch der evangelische Pfarrer Martin Michaelis aus Quedlinburg geladen, der unter anderem wegen seiner Kritik an dem Corona-Regime am öffentlichen Pranger steht. Warum die heutige evangelische Kirche kaum noch in der Tradition Luthers steht, erklärt Michaelis im Interview mit AUF-Nachrichtenchef Martin Müller-Mertens.
AP Table Talk: Deck, Bag, and Pool BuildingIn this episode of AP Table Talk, Brian and Dave Eng discuss the concept of deck, bag, and pool building in board games. They explain that deck building specifically involves players starting with a basic deck of cards, which they enhance throughout the game to achieve specific goals. The episode highlights "Dominion" as a pioneering deck-building game and mentions other notable games such as "Clank! In! Space!" and "Friday." The hosts also share their favorite deck-building games, including "Dune: Imperium" and "The Quacks of Quedlinburg." They conclude by debating the classification of various games and their mechanics, emphasizing the strategic decisions in deck building.If you liked this episode please consider commenting, sharing, and subscribing.

One of the things that most competitive and many cooperative games have in common is some sort of turn order. You go first, then comes Bob and then it's my turn. Turn order might change throughout the game, but there is always someone whose turn it is. The more players there are, the more of an issue it can be, because the longer you have to wait for the round to come back to you. Yet, there is an interesting set of games where everyone plays at the same time, which I want to look at in this article.

In dieser Folge von Dirty Mindest Left, Folge 443, nehmen wir uns die Zeit, über verschiedene Themen anzusprechen, angefangen mit einem Getränketest der neuen „Gönnergy Sweet Lemon“, das wir beide als angenehm fruchtig empfunden haben. Im Laufe des Gesprächs teilen wir unsere Erfahrungen mit dem erst kürzlich gespielten Spiel Reversi, das sich als überraschend langweilig herausstellte, weil es auf einem alten System emuliert wurde. Die langen Denkzeiten des Computers und die umständliche Steuerung führten dazu, dass wir die Lust am Spiel schnell verloren haben. Wir diskutieren die spielerische Tiefe und die strategischen Aspekte von Reversi, während wir darüber sinnieren, ob es sich auch mit anderen Spielmaterialien spielen lässt, was in der Theorie interessant klingt, in der Praxis jedoch nicht so leicht umsetzbar ist. Im weiteren Verlauf der Episode nehmen wir uns die Zeit, über den neuen James Bond Film "Casino Royale" zu sprechen, der für uns in drei akzentuierte Abschnitte unterteilt ist. Wir sind uns einig, dass der erste Teil des Films bombastisch ist, während der zweite Teil in seinen Actionsequenzen ein wenig an Intensität verliert und mehr in einem Kammerspiel endet, wie einem Pokerspiel. Die Charaktere und die Handlung des Films ziehen uns in ihren Bann, wobei wir insbesondere Daniel Craig als neuen Bond und die düstere und spannende Atmosphäre der Handlung loben. Wir reflektieren über die Transformation des Charakters James Bond und die Abkehr von den typischen Slapstick-Elementen der vorherigen Filme, hin zu einem ernsthafteren und brutalen Bond, was uns beide positiv überrascht. Die komplexe Beziehung zwischen Bond und den anderen Charakteren, einschließlich der Tat von Vesper und deren ernsthaften emotionalen Konsequenzen, sorgt für tiefere Einsichten. Ein wichtiger Teil des Gesprächs dreht sich um die kommende Sommerpause, die wir einschieben werden, während ich nach Lanzarote und Quedlinburg reisen werde. Hierbei bringen wir in den Dialog auch unsere Gedanken zu den kommenden Episoden und den Film „Quantum Trost“, der für unsere nächste Besprechung auf dem Programm steht. Damit bereiten wir unsere Zuhörer auf die nächste Episode vor und vermitteln unser Interesse an den Verbindungen zwischen den verschiedenen Bond-Filmen und den Charakterentwicklungen. Zusätzlich teilen wir persönliche Geschichten rund um Freizeitaktivitäten und Erlebnisse, wie meinen Besuch im Hansapark, der mir sowohl nostalgische Erinnerungen bescherte als auch einen Blick auf die Veränderungen in der Freizeitparklandschaft gab. Während des Gesprächs erwähne ich auch meine aktuellen Gedanken zu Winterreifen und den neuen gesetzlichen Änderungen, was eine breitere Diskussion über Autos und unsere Herangehensweise an Autofahren und -pflege auslöst. Abschließend befassen wir uns mit meinem neuen 3D-Drucker und einigen spannenden Spielen, die ich auf der letzten Messe in Essen mitgebracht habe, darunter das Brettspiel "ISS Vanguard". Dieses Spiel hat mich so sehr begeistert, dass ich mich auf zukünftige Spielrunden freue. Auch Holger hat Neuigkeiten über den Kindergartenplatz seines Kindes, was das Gespräch weiter vertieft und persönliche Einblicke gewährt. Diese Episode ist voll von interessanten Gesprächen über Filme, Spiele und persönliche Erlebnisse, und wir freuen uns darauf, unsere Gedanken in den nächsten Episoden weiter zu vertiefen.
Was einen so antreibt Tätowierer zu werden, warum er DIR davon abrät und warum er NICHT Maurer geworden ist, verrät er vielleicht in den kommenden 2 Stunden Smalltalk recht ausführlich. Getroffen haben wir uns im "Rose of no mans land" einer Institution in Berlin und dass ca. 1 Jahr nachdem ich ihn zum ersten Mal fragte, ob er Lust hätte hier mitzumachen.Hurra.

Teil 5: Die kurze Halbwertszeit von KriegsplänenDeutschland stolpert in den KriegEin Kommentar von Wolfgang Effenberger.In den vorangegangenen Artikeln wurden vor allem die politisch-diplomatischen Facetten des anscheinend unaufhaltsamen Wegs in den Ersten Weltkrieg aufgezeigt. Nun soll mit der Darstellung des deutschen Angriffs auf die von 12 Festungsanlagen geschützte belgische Stadt Lüttich Einblick in den generellen Wahnsinn und die vollkommene Absurdität eines Krieges vermittelt werden. Jedes rationale Denken löst sich im Pulverdampf auf. Darauf hat schon der preußische Heeresreformer, Militärwissenschaftler und Kriegsphilosoph Generalmajor Carl von Clausewitz (1780-1831) hingewiesen. Für ihn führen Friktionen, etwa Verzögerungen, Fehler und Missverständnisse, zu „Abweichungen“ von akribischen Kriegsplanungen.(1)Der "Handstreich" auf LüttichAm ersten August-Wochenende 1914 zogen über Deutschland bedrohliche Wolken auf. In Grenznähe stationierte Truppen wurden alarmiert sowie Posten an wichtigen Verkehrsknotenpunkten, z.B. Bahnhöfen, Brücken und Nachschubrouten, in Stellung gebracht.Dem in Hannover stationierten Generalkommando des X. Armeekorps wurde vom Großen Generalstab eine höchst geheime "Denkschrift" ausgehändigt. Darin wurde dem Kommandierenden, General der Infanterie Otto von Emmich, die Aufgabe übertragen, Lüttich für den Fall der Weigerung Belgiens, Deutschland den Durchmarsch des deutschen Heeres zu gestatten, im Handstreich zu nehmen. Der Generalstab rechnete mit einer Bereitstellung des belgischen Heeres südlich von Brüssel oder bei Namur - ein Eingreifen bei Lüttich wurde für wenig wahrscheinlich gehalten.(2) Die belgische Operationsfähigkeit wurde von den Planern für die ersten Mobilmachungstage als gering eingeschätzt. Die Friedensbesatzung der Festung Lüttich mit ihren Forts bzw. Fortins wurde auf 6.000 Soldaten geschätzt, im Kriegsfall rechneten die deutschen Generalstabsoffiziere mit 19.000 Mann zuzüglich 3.000 Angehörigen der nur für Hilfsdienste hinter der Front verwendbaren "Garde Civique".Am 2. August 1914 trat in Quedlinburg um 15.00 Uhr das 1. und 2. Bataillon mit der Maschinengewehrkompanie feldmarschbereit auf den Kasernenhof. Nach der Rede des Oberst von Oven, Kommandeur des Infanterieregiments 165 (ca. 1.500 Soldaten), segnete der Garnisonsgeistliche die Truppe. Um 20.30 Uhr stand das 1. Bataillon unter klingendem Spiel am Marktplatz, um vom Oberbürgermeister verabschiedet zu werden. Um 22.40 Uhr war dieser Kampfverband bereits verladen und der Zug rollte an. Doch wohin? Die Soldaten kannten den Zielort nicht. Doch bald merkten sie, dass es in Richtung Westen geht. Knapp drei Stunden später folgte der Regimentsstab mit Oberst von Oven, dann das 2. Bataillon unter Major Graf v. Matuschka mit der Maschinengewehrkompagnie. Um 03.20 Uhr folgte das 3. Bataillon unter Major von Saldern.Kaum am Bahnhof in Aachen angekommen, erhielt die Truppe schon die Befehle für die nächsten 24 Stunden, samt Antreten am Morgen des 4. August 1914.Inzwischen war auch der Stab des X. Armeekorps aus Hannover in Aachen eingetroffen. Der Befehls-haber all dieser rasch an die Grenze geworfenen sechs Infanteriebrigaden (3) (in Summe ca. 18.000 Mann) - jede mit Artillerie und anderen Waffen ausgerüstet - und drei Kavalleriedivisionen(4) (in Summe ca. 30.000 Mann), General Emmich, samt einem kleinen Teil seines Korpsstabes, hatte den Standort Hannover unauffällig verlassen und war mit dem Auto nach Aachen gefahren.... hier weiterlesen: https://apolut.net/die-langen-schatten-des-ersten-weltkriegs-teil-5-von-wolfgang-effenberger Hosted on Acast.

In board gaming, collections can range anywhere from 1 to 1001 (anything after 1001 will cause an explosion). With such a wide swath of options there has to be a perfect number, right? A “goldilocks zone” if you will? Today on the show Robert, Evan and Steve endeavor to find out! Want to ask a question or give us your two cents about the state of euros?

In this week's episode, we take a look at some ergonomics and health tips for writers and other sedentary workers. This week's coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of DRAGONSKULL: FURY OF THE BARBARIANS (as excellently narrated by Brad Wills) at my Payhip store: SPRINGFURY The coupon code is valid through May 25th, 2024. So if you need a new audiobook for spring, we've got you covered! TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 199 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is May the 3rd 2024 and today we are talking about ergonomics for writers. Before we get to our main topic, we will do Coupon of the Week, an update on current writing projects, and then Question of the Week. First up, Coupon of the Week. This week's coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Dragonskull: Fury of the Barbarians (as excellently narrated by Brad Wills) at my Payhip store. That coupon code is SPRINGFURY. As always, that will be in the show notes with a link to the Payhip store. This coupon code will be valid through May the 25th, 2024, so if you need a new audiobook for spring, we have got you covered. Next up, updates on my current writing projects. I am almost done with Cloak of Titans. I'm currently at 98,000 words. I am hoping to wrap it up after I finish recording this episode (either this afternoon or tomorrow), and so we are well on track to having the book out before the end of May, if all goes well. I am also 8,000 words into Half-Orc Paladin, which will be the sequel to Wizard-Thief and Half-Elven Thief, and the third book in the Rivah series. That will probably be out towards the end of July because once Cloak of Titans is done, I want to go full speed ahead on Shield of Darkness (the sequel to Shield of Storms from earlier in the year and the second book in the Shield War series). If all goes well, the next couple of books I publish will be Cloak of Titans, Shield of Darkness, and Half-Orc Paladin. In audiobook news, Brad Wills is recording the anthology of Tales of the Shield Knight for me. We're about 1/3 of the way through it, I think and making good progress. I'm looking forward to sharing that with you all. I just got the notification that the files for the audiobook of Ghost in the Veils (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy) were uploaded, so just a little more proofing and then that should hopefully be available to you as well. So lots of good things to look forward to. 00:02:07 Question of the Week Now it's time for Question of the Week, which is designed to inspire interesting discussion of enjoyable topics. This week's question: what is the board game that you've been playing the longest? Board games have many advantages in the modern age. They don't require electricity, they don't need to be charged, and they also have a pleasingly tactile feel that you just don't get from tapping a screen. Sometimes you learn a game when you're a kid and sticks with you ever since. We have some interesting answers this week. Our first answer is from Jesse, who says: I have to say Labyrinth. Played it as a kid a lot with siblings. A year or two ago, my kids got it randomly from a relative, and now it's back. The real precursor to Mario Kart in terms of learning to hate your friends and discovering life is unfair. For myself, I only started playing Mario Kart with my siblings when I was already well into middle age, so we thankfully avoided squabbling over that. If we had played Mario Kart when we were kids, we definitely would have squabbled. Back to Question of the Week. Michael says: I don't really play them anymore, alas. I played chess in school but only so I didn't have to do physical education class. I used to look at the board and immediately resign and then just sit and read a book instead until the teacher wandered over. It used to annoy my opponents who took the game seriously. So congratulations to Michael for devising a chess stratagem that did, in fact get him what he wanted. MacKenzie says: hands down, chess. I may be awful at it, but it's definitely the record holder. Mark says: checkers, because my mum is good at it. Adelaide says: Scrabble for me. Venus says: backgammon. My mother taught me to play. I don't know how old I was. She never let me win. Every time I beat her it was because I had a better game that day. David says it's probably Shoots and Ladders, followed closely by checkers. Grace says: I no longer play the same board games I did as a kid so the ones that I play now with friends. I've played I think Arkham Horror and Quacks of Quedlinburg the most. Both are fun, though Arkham Horror, we've won all of two times. For myself, I think the board game I've been playing the longest is chess. I first learned to play when I think was I was ten and I've been playing on and off ever since. Amusingly for a post about tactile board games, I recently discovered chess.com and I like its large supply of chess puzzles, which are kind of like bite sized chess when I don't have time to play a full game, which is most of the time. However, last night I did have a bit more time to play and so I was able to play six games against actual human opponents on chess.com in about 40 minutes and I lost six times in a row. So it's a good thing I enjoy the game because there's definitely room for improvement. 00:04:45 Main Topic: Ergonomics for Writers Now on to this week's main topic, ergonomics for writers. And let's start this with a disclaimer. I am not a health professional. I am not a doctor. I'm not a nurse. I'm not an ergonomics specialist. For medical questions, you should seek medical advice and verify anything I say with the opinion of actual medical professionals. When starting a new movement or exercise routine, it's a good idea to start gradually, both for reasons of health and to prevent burnout or getting overwhelmed. So that is your disclaimer. I am not a medical professional. But I don't think you have to be a medical professional to notice that desk jobs have a serious problem, and that includes writing. If you're sitting for a long period of time, that can cause a host of health problems, including cardiovascular disease, obesity, potentially diabetes, etc. Sitting for long periods reduces your energy levels and can be detrimental to your mental health. Sitting for long periods in the wrong position can make joint, wrist, and back problems worse and cause pain. As an example, back in the old days when I did IT support, I was talking to a coworker who said that he was having back problems and so I made, you know, sympathetic noises and told him I hope he felt better. Then about an hour later I was walking down the hall and I happened to walk past his desk and I saw that he was using his laptop by sitting at the very edge of his chair, and his back was bent at like 45° angle to type on the keyboard. And I was like dude, this explains your back problems. So thankfully he improved his posture a bit after that. If you do have a job such as being a writer where you are sitting for long periods of time, how can you sit in the most healthy way? Changing how you sit is a relatively quick thing to do that will reap long term rewards in terms of potentially avoiding back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain and so forth. Make sure that your chair and desk are set in the correct positions. There are lot of diagrams available to show you, that demonstrate how to have an ergonomic desk set up. You want your elbows to be at a 90° angle. You want your wrist to be neutral or supported. You don't want them to be bent like T Rex hands. Your back and neck should not be leaning forward. The top of the monitor should be around eye level for neck health and in fact I have my main desktop monitor on this monitor stand I got off Amazon Basics just for the purpose of raising it to proper eye level. You want your knees so your legs are not pulled underneath your chair or resting on your chair casters, since this stresses knee joints. If your legs aren't long enough to go comfortably to a flat position when sitting normally, footrests work well and aren't very expensive or a large book will work, too. For your eye health, you want to look away from your monitor occasionally to reduce eye strain. Another good solution for the health problems that sitting too much causes is moving. You can have walking breaks where you get up and move for at least a minute every hour. This is an excellent time to get some water to drink or to use the bathroom. Fitness and smart watches or a cheap kitchen timer can be used to remind you to get up or stand. It might be a good idea to pace while taking a phone call, since you're going to be on the phone anyway and if it's not a video call, there's no reason not to stand up and walk around a little bit, so long as you're not irritating your officemates. Sometimes it's a good idea to take a brief walk daily. Some people who work from home use a walk around the block at the beginning of the day and the end of the day to mentally transition away from the workday in the absence of a work commute. Some people have the kind of work where they can do it while on a walking pad (like a low power treadmill) and an adjustable standing desk combination. This setup is a bit more expensive and can cost about like $350 USD for a basic setup and just like standing desks, they don't work for everyone. If you already have a treadmill, you can get a desk attachment for it for around sixty U.S. dollars. The transcriptionist of this podcast has used a walking pad/standing desk combination for about six months now and finds that it helps with afternoon energy crashes. She usually uses it for webinars, Zoom meetings where she don't need to be on camera, and tasks that involve more reading than typing, such as research for these podcast episodes. She can type while she walks, so long as she keeps her pace to under about two mph. She says the key is to think of walking as a supplement to working and not expect it to be the same as walking on a treadmill at the gym. For myself, I've mentioned before that pretty frequently that I use the Pomodoro technique while I'm writing where I'll write intensely for 25 minutes and then take a 5 or 10 minute break. That's also an excellent time to stand up and move around or if you're me, drop and do some push-ups to help keep carpal tunnel syndrome at bay. Another potential thing to think about is strength training/mobility. People tend to be scared of strength training because they're afraid of injuring themselves, but they really shouldn't be so long as they, you know, do the forms correctly. Strength training, as the name implies, strengthens muscles that support your joints and becomes even more important as we get older, since the human body tends to lose muscle mass as we get older. As little as two sessions of strength training a week have been shown to lead to fewer injuries and greater longevity. Strength training is important in the sedentary job like writing since we don't have tasks to build muscles already built into the workday. Writing is a lot of things, but it's not particularly great for building physical strength. Having a consistent strength routine also means that your body can instantly adapt to challenges like shoveling heavy snow or helping to carry a person in an emergency or getting the bag into the overhead bin on the plane without having to ask for help. As people get older, that kind of thing gets harder to do otherwise. In the case of shoveling, it can put a lot of strain on your heart, so it's best to prepare for these kind of life challenges with consistent strength training. There's a lot of strength training that doesn't require a lot of money or a gym membership. Body weight and resistance band strength training are beginner friendly and free or inexpensive. And as I mentioned earlier, you can totally do push-ups for free with no equipment. Another potential strength training exercise that may work for you is resistance band training. That's great for those who travel often or live in a very small space, such as a typical modern urban apartment. Latex or cloth bands that provide resistance for body weight movements can be found quite cheaply on most major retailers. Some are in the shape of a loop, while others have attached handles. Resistance band training includes exercises for those who are unable to stand at all or for long periods of time. Another good technique is dumbbell only strength training. Dumbbells can actually be used for lower body exercises like squats as well as well as upper body exercises. They are relatively inexpensive compared to a full barbell or strength machines and they don't take up a lot of space, which again is useful if you're living in a small space or place where space is constrained. Sample routines with video demonstrations abound on YouTube, if you're not sure where to start. Otherwise, you can find online training programs from companies like Street Parking or CrossFit Linchpin for about $20.00 USD per month, and they have structured training routines that have been scaled down to work with just dumbbells. Sitting correctly and moving often sounds like things that shouldn't matter to someone in a job that relies on the mind but physical health and a strong mind are strongly intertwined. People in intellectual jobs, I've noticed, tend to think of themselves as a mind that happens to have a body attached, especially people who are very often heavily into the sciences and engineering. But it's really, I found, the opposite. We are essentially a physical body that happens to have a mind attached to it and the better shape you can get your physical body and physical health into, the clearer your mind will be. I mean, just think about how hard it is to think clearly when you have chronic pain or chronic illness or some kind of medication you have to take to manage those things that interferes with your thinking, gives you cloudy thoughts. Truth is, this has been known for centuries and still confirmed by endless research studies. The Romans had a Latin phrase, “mens sana in corpore sano”: a healthy mind in a healthy body. That sums up how interconnected the goal of both are. Ideally, when you're a writer, you want to prolong your career and increase your energy levels by spending at least a small time each week moving and strengthening the body. Sitting correctly also goes a long way towards preventing back and joint pain, which can definitely hurt your productivity and cause problems in other areas of your life as well. Finally, the most important thing with any exercise program is consistency is more important than perfection here. Start small and keep going. I've often said in this podcast, don't let the perfect be the enemy of the possible, and this is definitely true with exercise as well as writing. So that is it for this week. Thanks for listening to The Pulp Writer Show. I hope you found the show useful. Once again, a word of thanks for my transcriptionist for helping me pull together the research for this episode. As you might have guessed, she has a strong interest in physical fitness for people who sit at a desk and work a lot. A reminder you that you can listen to all the back episodes on https://thepulpwritershow.com. If you enjoyed the podcast, please leave a review on your podcasting platform of choice.

Wegen seiner Nähe zur AfD verliert ein Pfarrer der Evangelischen Kirche in Mitteldeutschland (EKM) jetzt seine Pfarrstelle. Martin Michaelis, Pfarrer aus Quedlinburg in Sachsen-Anhalt, hatte zuvor angekündigt, bei der Kommunalwahl als Parteiloser für die AfD anzutreten. Die EKM sieht darin einen Loyalitätsverstoß und hat Michaelis deshalb nun aus dem Pfarramt der Gemeinde Gatersleben entlassen. "Es ist zwar im Interesse der Kirche, dass sich Pfarrerinnen und Pfarrer auch politisch engagieren, dies gilt jedoch nicht für das Engagement in Parteien, die verfassungsrechtlich fragwürdige Positionen einnehmen", teilte Dezernatsleiter Michael Lehmann mit. Michaelis kritisierte die Entscheidung der Kirchenleitung: Es handele sich um freie Wahlen, die Kandidatur dürfe ihm nicht zum Nachteil ausgelegt werden. Hannes Leitlein ist Redakteur im Sinn-Ressort von ZEIT ONLINE. Wie die evangelische Kirche mit rechtsextremen Positionen in den eigenen Reihen umgeht, analysiert er im Podcast. Zu wenig Geld für Nahrung, Kleidung und Schuhe, teilweise nicht einmal für notwendige Hygieneartikel oder ein Dach über dem Kopf: Mehr als drei Millionen Kinder in Großbritannien sind von sogenannter absoluter Armut betroffen. Das Realeinkommen ihres Elternhaushalts liegt bei weniger als 60 Prozent des mittleren Einkommens. Wie kommt es, dass in einem der reichsten westlichen Länder so viele Menschen von Armut betroffen sind? Bettina Schulz berichtet für ZEIT ONLINE aus Großbritannien und ordnet im Podcast ein, warum es sich bei der wachsenden Armut in Großbritannien um ein politisches Problem handelt. Und sonst so? Hündin Famke wird nach zwölf Tagen gerettet. Moderation und Produktion: Hannah Grünewald Mitarbeit: Lisa Pausch, Henrike Hartmann Fragen, Kritik, Anregungen? Sie erreichen uns unter wasjetzt@zeit.de.

Der ehemalige Generalmajor der Bundeswehr Gerd Schultze-Rhonhof erklärt die aktuelle Lage an der Front in der Ukraine und zieht daraus seine Schlüsse: Er präsentiert uns seinen Vorschlag, wie es zu einem Ende der Kampfhandlungen kommen könnte. Wie geht eigentlich die evangelische Kirche mit Menschen um, die die AfD wählen oder sich für sie wählen lassen? Der Quedlinburger Pfarrer Martin Michaelis kann davon ein Lied singen. Er tritt für die AfD für die Kommunalwahlen in Quedlinburg an, woraufhin ihm seine Pfarrbeauftragung entzogen wurde. Wir sprechen mit ihm über seinen Fall. Von Althistoriker Dr. Alfred Schmidt erfahren wir, wie in Deutschland mit Geschichte Politik gemacht wird und wie man mit Quellen umgeht. Und Martina Binnig hat den Kommentar des Tages für Sie – ihre Gedanken drehen sich um die Städte der Zukunft.

Hear about a German road trip to 9 UNESCO Cities as the Amateur Traveler talks to Renee Hannes from dreamplanexperience.com about her exploration of the land of her ancestors. https://amateurtraveler.com/germany-road-trip-to-9-unesco-cities/ Renee says, "I just returned from living in Berlin for 3 months. So had an opportunity to make a little bit of a longer trip and was there with my husband and dog and lived in Berlin and I had a good chance to be able to see the city and lots of other places around it. I had this long list of places on my to-do list. I think like most travelers, I become very quickly overwhelmed with how many places I wanted to see. So I thought why not think about what are those places that are worthy of a visit?" "That's where I came upon thinking about it from a UNESCO perspective and UNESCO sites are always worthy places to visit special places to visit in terms of the history and the moments in history that they help create and shape the architecture that usually is pretty spectacular to be able to see from, nature and the landscapes that we want to protect and then also it gives us really good insights into the culture. So after I had that long list, I went back and thought, what is close to Berlin? And that's how I was able to stumble on these 9 destinations." City 1: Berlin UNESCO Site: Museum Island: Spend the first day exploring Museum Island, home to five world-class museums. Delve into history, art, and archaeology at the Altes Museum, Neues Museum, Alte Nationalgalerie, Bode Museum, and the famous Pergamon Museum (when it reopens). City 2: Potsdam (Day Trip from Berlin) UNESCO Site: Sans Souci Palace and Park: Explore the stunning Sans Souci Palace, a masterpiece of Rococo architecture, surrounded by beautiful gardens, fountains, and other palaces. Optional Activities: Visit the Dutch Quarter and the historic center of Potsdam. City 3: Wittenberg (Short Train Ride from Berlin) UNESCO Site: Martin Luther's 95 Theses Site: Visit the place where Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door, sparking the Protestant Reformation. City Exploration: Wander through the charming streets of Wittenberg's Old Town. If possible, visit the city in June for the Luther Wedding celebration. City 4: Quedlinburg UNESCO Site: Old Town with Half-Timbered Houses: Immerse yourself in the enchanting medieval atmosphere of Quedlinburg's Old Town, characterized by over 1300 half-timbered houses. Activities: Climb to the top of the hill for panoramic views of the town from the castle. Explore the Quedlinburg Cathedral and the Culture Church. Visit museums showcasing the town's history and heritage. City 5: Goslar (Day Trip from Quedlinburg) UNESCO Sites: Imperial Palace (Kaiserpfalz): Discover the grandeur of the Imperial Palace overlooking Goslar. Optional Activities: Take a guided tour of the Rammelsberg mine, gaining insights into a thousand years of mining history. Explore the old town with its half-timbered houses and churches. Take a ride on a train through the Harz Mountains on the Harz Railway. City 6: Hamburg Highlights: Warehouse District (Speicherstadt): Explore the UNESCO-listed Speicherstadt, Hamburg's historic warehouse district. Marvel at the red brick buildings lining the canals, reminiscent of the city's trading past. Hamburg City Center: Stroll through the city center, enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, and visit landmarks like St. Michael's Church and the Rathaus (City Hall). City 7: Lubeck (Day Trip from Hamburg) UNESCO Site: Holstentor Gate: Visit the iconic Holstentor Gate, the entrance to Lubeck's Old Town, representing the city's historical significance as a trading hub. Exploring Beyond Main Streets: Wander off the main streets to discover elegant homes reflecting the wealth of medieval merchants. Explore St. Mary's Church and other architectural gems. Marzipan Delights: Visit the Niederegger marzipan shop to indulge in marzipan treats and learn about the city's marzipan-making history. Cities 8 and 9: Wismar and Stralsund UNESCO Sites: Wismar: Explore the charming town of Wismar on the Baltic Sea, known for its fortified walls, historic market square, and lively harbor atmosphere. Stralsund: Visit Stralsund, another Baltic Sea gem, with a large public square featuring diverse architectural styles. Explore St. Nicholas Church and enjoy seafood at the harbor.

From the flip of a card to the roll of a die, there is a lot of randomness in games! But is all randomness created equally? Why do some things feel more random than others?

Now don't get me wrong. I don't mind long games. I happily play the same game for two to three hours, as long as it keeps me captivated. Even when a game requires a lot of focus and concentration, I usually have no problem sticking with it for a few hours. One of the ways in which a game can keep players invested is by reducing the amount of downtime, that is the time it takes for a turn to come back round to you. Something that helps in this respect is overlapping turns, which I want to look at more closely in this article.

They say knowledge is power… but what if you have too much knowledge? Does that mean you have too much power? If absolute power corrupts absolutely will this power from knowledge corrupt you? Will you become some sort of unhinged board game demigod if there is too much information given to you on the table? We'll never know!
