• This week the US and Great Britain attacked, as Scott Ritter puts it, Russia with their ATACMS und Storm Shadow missiles. This is probably the most dangerous escalation ever of the conflict between the American and the Eurasion empire, worse than the famous Cuba Crisis of 1962 – but established media in germany report this on page three only. Worse even, our likely next chancellor (and also the more popular of two opposing candidates for the federal elections coming in February 2025) would like to take part in this “game”...
• Julian Assange is free at last – although he had to “plead guilty to journalism“ to get out of prison.
• My list of Friends of Peace has a new addition: the strong and persistent German peace activist Eugen Drewermann.

• Finally new contents: peace and Friends of Peace!

• Unsurprisingly, U.S. leader Joe Biden is picking up where he left off as vice to "Nobel Peace Prize winner" Barack Obama: this week there was a U.S. airstrike on Syria with 19 dead.

• Finally I fixed some problems long remaining after my provider“s server update. So the visualisation of my visitor log is working again.

2018-12-31

• After eight years I updated and extended my Free Software Page.
• I added “efficiently using digiKam with external databases” to my computer pages.

2018-05-08

• 72 years after the end of World War II (in Europe) is a good day to extend my Masters of War poster by two more profiles: Theresa May and Emmanuel Macron, for their attacs on Syria in April 2018. Link: War of aggression.

• Just in time for Easter (a time for peace protests in Germany): my Anti-war pages.

2016-02-22

• Back on-line (mostly). :-)

2016-02-15

• Apparently my provider finally updated to a newer PHP version, no longer supporting the long depricated language selection method I was still using here. Having had no time left to update my homepage I saw this coming... :(

2013-​05-​09

• The first update in more than a year!
• New pictures (with descriptions) from Nijmegen and Dortmund.

2012-04-06

• To me the Financial Crisis remains the most important topic. So much depends upon it. My financial situation pretty much determins where I’m living now, and where I’ll be living in the future. There are now 25 million Europeans unemployed, more than half of the younger generation in some southern European states...
• I corrected and slightly extended my Money Page: with new links, and a new books section.
• Technical improvement: after a long search for the right syntax now also recent WebKit browsers (Google Chrome, WebKit “nightly”) properly display the Scalable Vector Graphics on Vlado World-Wide (e.g. at the bottom of the Money Page or for my access statistics). My svg embedding function is available for download.

2012-02-14

• The navigation menu is now on the right and the content should be centred better (on large displays).
• 2012 on Vlado World-Wide does not begin with more bad news from the world of finance, but with some pretty pictures of snow-glazed trees in Nijmegen.

2011-12-07

• New revision of the money page: new picture, two new quotes, one new link.
• Eight new Photos from Nijmegen.
• New links (XKCD and couchsurfing).

2011-05-17

• In addition to here you can also find some information on me on Facebook (and some more social networking websites)... but I’ll leave the evil Facebook before this year is over!

• My guestbook was not working for some time - thanks for pointing that out, Benno! Now the guestbook is transferred from the university server to this website’s proper location, and it should work again (even though the software behind it is already ten years old).

2011-03-21

• For about a month I have now been working and living in Nijmegen (36 photos).
• I also shot a few new pictures (12) in Dortmund, during the last year.
• Just in time for my updated visualisation of access data to this website Microsoft last week finally managed to release a web browser that can display scalable vector graphics (only five years after the competition) - congratulations, Microsoft!

• The Money Page now comes with an introduction and more explanations.
• A new Freigeld Calculator complements the ((not yet)extended) Redistribution Calculator.

2010-11-17

• I´m now using an improved graph for the capital distribution in Germany.

2010-11-10

• Further intensive research led to me now seeing a possible “way out” of debt, lack of money, lack of paid work, and the growing gap between the rich and the poor! On my renewed, extended money page with the new redistribution calculator everyone can read and calculate on his or her own how that is supposed to work.
• Also new and emanated from my preoccupation with the money issue: the Freimarkt project (still under construction).
• In order to make the important money pages well printable I had to do some work in Vlado World-Wide´s “engine room”. As a spin-off I got the optional stylesheet Menu on top ([switch back]), which should be usefull for users on (mobile) devices with small screens.
