The kindle paperwhite is a great reading tablet

the kindle paperwhite is a great reading tablet

Let's be honest: an e-book reader will not be able to replace a book. The experience that a new book conveys is too unique: the smell, the rustling pages, the layout and the writing are all part of the reading experience and make it unique. So in this respect, the phrase "it's like a book" is not a book not right.

But it's true that the newest kindle paperwhite is practical. Not only because it is already light and handy. Books can also be downloaded easily and are ready to read immediately – features that the now-defunct kindle keyboard had a good two years ago and that still make it stand out. The successor has a slightly fancier design, which is quite minimalist with just one button on the lower edge to switch it on and off. Just like the display, which – as is usual with e-book readers – looks almost antiquated compared to that of a tablet. There are no colorful apps or flashing pictures.

More unemployed

More unemployed

In the vacation month of august, unemployment in the main-rhon region increased slightly, as expected. There were 8041 people registered as unemployed in the main-rhon region. Compared to the previous month, the number of unemployed people increased by 656 people. The unemployment rate increased by 0.2 percentage points to 3.2 percent. This was a normal development for this time of year, according to the employment market report. In august 2018, the unemployment rate was 3.0 percent, down by 0.2 percentage points. At that time, 580 fewer people were unemployed.

"The seasonal increase in unemployment during the summer months is due in no small part to the increased number of unemployed young people who have completed their education. In addition, the summer vacations mean that hiring tends to be postponed until september", thomas stelzer, head of the schweinfurt employment agency, explains the development. Almost all groups of people reported by the statistics were affected by the summer lull in the labor market in august compared to the same month of the previous year. The number of older people (aged 50 and over) was particularly high, with an increase of 237 people (8.3 percent). Also the foreign mitburgers recorded an increase of 158 people (10.9 percent). Younger people (15 to 25 years) were affected with an increase of 153 people (14.5 percent).

Hens resigns from national team

Hens resigns from national team

"Missing out on the olympic games at the european championships has put an end to the topic of the national team for me," the 31-year-old captain of the DHB team announced. "After eleven years of handball without a break in the club and the national team, i have to give my body a rest. I will soon be 32 and want to play a few more years in the club. I don’t have any other choice," said the back of champion HSV hamburg as the reason for his decision.

The retreat of the currently most dazzling figure in german handball due to his height (2.03 meters) and his striking hairstyle comes as no surprise after the european championship in serbia, which was also personally disappointing for him. How deep the sting of the replacement sits with hens, who went through a crisis of form at the european championships and got unusually little playing time, he hinted at on his homepage. "It is a great pity that it (the resignation) has to be after such a disastrous tournament for german handball."
