As many of you will be aware, today saw the publication of the first edition of the new Berliner Guardian. You can read all about the new format in our special report, and find out about the editing process on our new Editor's blog. Most importantly, of course, we'd like you to read our new paper: you can buy a copy in all good UK newsagents for only 60p or read our digital edition for free until September 26. When you've had a good look, please let us know what you think, by sending your feedback to this email address.
It's finally crunch day at the Oval, where England - who only need to avoid defeat to reclaim the Ashes - have lost two early wickets and nearly lost at least another two. You can follow it over by agonising over here and see whether the runs or the wickets rack up more quickly with our desktop scorecard.
In other news, we're looking at the aftermath of a weekend of rioting in Belfast, the entry of Palestinians into vacated Israeli settlements in Gaza, and the TUC conference in Brighton, from which David Hencke will be explaining why the proposed merger of the T&G, Amicus and GMB unions is a far more problematic prospect than many are publicly saying.
