Good evening,
watch comparison.
What time is it where you are?
Somehow this whole thing with the time difference has become pointless since smartphones switch over automatically.
Even those who have tried cannot manage to sleep through the time change.
But no matter what time it is where you are, it's time to read the Hauptwache.

Today it is about an empty castle near Mainz with more than 140 rooms, which could serve as accommodation for refugees from Ukraine according to a proposal by the Junge Union.
We also stopped by the Frankfurt train station mission, which receives the arriving refugees.
Up to 2000 a day.
Editor Anna-Sophia Lang conducted an interview with Torsten Kunze, Hesse's new Attorney General.
In it he talks about the corruption scandal in his agency, criticism of the charges against "NSU 2.0", new forms of extremism and demands on politicians.
Castle as refugee accommodation: Accommodation for Ukraine refugees is currently being built in many places.
Gyms are converted again, hotels are rented.
Often the solutions that are found are acceptable.
But to speak of ideal would be presumptuous.
It just doesn't sleep well on cots.
It's not easy to live in makeshift rooms whose walls are flimsy elements.
There has to be a better way, thought the Junge Union Mainz and already has a suggestion.
Waldhausen Castle, the former academy of the Rhineland-Palatinate Savings Banks Association, is empty.
More than 140 rooms.
In addition, a large outdoor area, a kitchen and conference rooms.
None of this is currently in use.
It's actually ideal for accommodating refugees.
One might think.
But it won't be that easy.
A buyer is currently being sought for the property.
But the usage proposal has now become public - and will certainly bring a new dynamic to the search for possible accommodation.
Our author Markus Schug will continue to report.
2000 a day:
The stream of refugees seeking protection in Germany still does not stop.
Up to 2000 people from Ukraine arrive at Frankfurt Central Station every day.
The station mission there has set itself the task of welcoming people and helping them plan further steps.
But the challenges faced by staff, many of whom are volunteers, are growing.
Many had hoped not to have to flee at all - for example because they are ill and physically hardly able to take on the hardships.
Carsten Baumann, head of the station mission, says that more and more people urgently need immediate follow-up treatment - for example for cancer patients.
People interrupt ongoing chemo cycles to escape.
take you to medical treatment immediately,
does not yet work smoothly, as Baumann says.
Every day people report problems for which there are still no solutions and certainly no standardized processes.
He gives an insight into everyday life in the station mission, which he and his employees have been trying to manage since the beginning of the war.
