Application process
All prospective students (Dutch and international) complete the same application form and will go through the same admissions process. The four main steps of the application procedure are outlined below.
1. Meet the minimum requirements and submit your application online
To be considered for admission to AUC, you must first complete and submit our online application form together with all the required documentation. Please read the Application Guidelines carefully before completing your application. You will need digital/scanned versions of certain documents in order to upload and submit them.
After you have submitted your application, we will first check if your previous education meets the general minimum entry requirements for a Bachelor's programme at a Dutch research university. In other words, we will check if you already have (or will soon obtain) a Dutch VWO diploma or a diploma that is considered to be equivalent to the Dutch VWO diploma. Along with checking the minimum entry requirements, we will also check to see if you have sent all the information we need to assess your application (that your application package is complete).
2. Application review and Admissions Day
If your application package is complete and your previous education meets the general minimum entry requirements, we will then review your application package. Do not worry if you do not (yet) meet specific English and/or maths requirements. This will not prevent your application from being reviewed. You can still work toward rectifying any deficiencies in order to meet the requirements before you intend to start your studies at AUC.
If you successfully pass the review stage, you will be invited to an Admissions Day at AUC. The Admissions Day allows us to get to know the person behind the application, as well as extend a warm welcome to you and other aspiring AUC students that have reached this stage of the process.
The Admissions Day programme consists of several activities specially designed to let you experience AUC's academic and social scene, in addition to meeting AUC staff members and current students. This is combined with a personal meeting with a member of the AUC faculty. The Admissions Days are held at the AUC academic building in Amsterdam, but can also be scheduled online for applicants who live outside of the Netherlands and cannot travel to Amsterdam.
3. Offer of a place at AUC
After the application review and Admissions Day, the AUC Admissions Committee sends letters offering a place at AUC. The offer of a place may be conditional on your meeting, for example, specific English and/or maths requirements. In other words, you may have to send us proof that you will meet the English and/or maths requirements in order to begin your studies at AUC. You must also successfully obtain your secondary school diploma if you have not already done so.
4. Enrolment at AUC
As soon as you accept your offer, we start the procedures to complete your enrolment at AUC as part of both the University of Amsterdam and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Our admissions office will contact you regarding which documents you must submit and will instruct you further on practical matters you need to take care of before starting your studies at AUC, including how to pay your tuition, arrange a residence permit (if necessary) and register for on-campus housing. You will then be invited to attend the Introduction Week at AUC in order to be officially welcomed to the AUC community!

As part of an event with the Hard Rock Cafe in Hollywood, FL, The Script stopped by the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, located in Broward County, Florida, to provide a very special decoration for one of the treatment rooms. The Hospital is one of the region's leading pediatric hospitals, offering a comprehensive scope of healthcare services and programs in a child-friendly atmosphere. For more click here.

10.10: On this day in 1955, the first face of Van Halen, "Diamond Dave" David Lee Roth jumped into this world, running with the devil and getting hot for teacher. Man, what was either camp thinking when they broke up the Brothers Van Halen and Diamond Dave? Yeah, we don't know either. Not to dis Sammy Hagar, but, come on, there is no comparison in the Van Halen canon. And if you actually prefer Sammy over "Just a Gigolo" Dave as the frontman for Van Halen, then stop reading right now, go sit in the corner, and think about what you've done.
10.12: On this day in 1978, Sid Vicious, former bass player for The Sex Pistols, was arrested and charged with the murder of his girlfriend, Nancy Spungen, who'd died from a stab wound to the abdomen. Sid attempted suicide ten days after Spungen's death and subsequently found himself in Bellevue Hospital's psychiatric ward, where he would spend two weeks. Vicious, addicted to heroin and a "live fast, die young" punk attitude, had no memory of killing his true love and died a few months later, like so many musicians before and since, of a heroin overdose. Sadly, at the time of his death, Sid had been clean for the better part of four months, since the death of Spungen. He was celebrating his release from Riker's Island, after spending nearly two months there for an incident involving a smashed beer mug on someone's face, when a friend (some even say his own mother) suggested they get some heroin. It is still unknown who killed Spungen, as some have suggested that one of the two drug dealers to encounter the couple that night could be equally culpable.

Well, if you were at the gig you saw them. And what you saw was A.) awesome and B.) an amazing band on the rise, ready to take the indie world, then the world world. Grouplove is one of our favorite new bands. We're so happy that they stopped by Hard Rock Cafe Seattle for an intimate show. Yes, you should check out their music online, in your local record store (they still have those in some places), on MySpace, Spotify, Reverbnation, iTunes or wherever you consume music. Grouplove is worth any amount of seeking you may do. Do it.
We wanted to thank The End 107.7 for always bringing amazing talent to their End Sessions. You all rock!
The one-and-only Mr. Alice Cooper held court at the newly opened Hard Rock Cafe Sydney recently. Was he just hanging out to have a burger and a beer? Was he checking out the Jimi Hendrix memorabilia? Did we dream it? If we did, we never want that dream to end because Alice rocks.
The real reason for Mr. Cooper's awesome presence was the release of his new album Welcome 2 My Nightmare. In case you don't know, the 2 refers to the fact that this new album is a sequel of sorts to his 1975 masterpiece Welcome To My Nightmare.
Hard Rock has opened some amazing Cafes in some amazing cities this year. Hard Rock Cafe Sydney opened its doors once again, after having been closed for a few years, in this truly international city. This time, though, the location is right on the water, in an incredible shopping and eating district. Hard Rock Cafe Hamburg opened in one of the great port cities in the world. Hamburg also happens to be the city where The Beatles cut their teeth playing in different clubs around town, sometimes for up to 8 hours a night. Hard Rock Cafe Hong Kong opened its doors in the Lan Kwai Fong district, famous for its nightlife scene and its people watching.

Woodlands Elementary School in Longwood, FL is $10,000 richer today, thanks to a talented group of fifth-graders. The school's 5th-grade chorus won a contest sponsored by Hard Rock. The contest asked students to perform songs from 1971, the year of the company's founding. The Woodlands kids' rendition of "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (in Perfect Harmony)" won the top prize. ALL IS ONE.
10.03: Rock 'n roll got an infusion of talent on October 3rd. Stevie Ray Vaughan (1954), one of the greatest guitar players ever, Tommy Lee (1962), one of the greatest metal drummers ever, and Gwen Stefani (1969), one of the greatest wives of Gavin Rossdale ever, were all welcomed into the world today. 10.03: Sinead O'Connor took on the Catholic Church, and lost, apparently, when she tore up a photo of Pope John Paul II during a 1992 performance on Saturday Night Live. The singer's popularity waned following the incident and she was booed off the stages of many performances, including Bob Dylan's 30th Anniversary Tribute Concert at Madison Square Garden in New York. To us, however, this does nothing to take away either the power of her voice or of the mesmerizing and haunting video for "Nothing Compares 2 U." Watching that video still gives us chills.

If you thought the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat was outrageous, wait until you see what the 2018 Challenger SRT Demon can do. Over the past few months, Dodge has been dropping a lot of hints about this upcoming supercar and according to Road and Track, they think it will be able to achieve a 10-second quarter-mile time.
Why do they think this? Recently, Dodge announced that the Demon will come with a four-point harness system, which is required at most drag strips for cars that can get under a 12-second quarter-mile.
In addition, the Demon will come with some chassis modifications, 315-width Nitto NT05R drag radial tires, and a nearly gutted interior. With these features, it seems the Demon only has one purpose in mind—to go as fast as possible.
While numbers haven't been officially release yet, some sources believe the Demon will deliver a mind-blowing 757 horsepower, which is 50 horsepower more than the current Challenger SRT Hellcat. And, based on the other information we do know, this number doesn't seem impossible.
The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon will be officially unveiled at the New York International Auto Show just a few weeks away. Here at Blackburn Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we can't wait to see it in action. If you're looking to get your own Dodge Challenger, check out our inventory today!

ANAHEIM – Just another – yawn – Halo victory.
There are likely to be plenty of games like this in the weeks that remain in the regular season – workmanlike victories, devoid of drama. The Angels scored in each of the first four innings Wednesday afternoon, then let the game plod to its conclusion, a 9-4 victory over the Baltimore Orioles at Angel Stadium.
The victory was the Angels' seventh in their past 10 games, 14th in 19 games since the All-Star break and 71st of the season – more padding for the best record in baseball, the best record in franchise history and the largest division lead in baseball.
"We're competitors. We want to win," said Angels first baseman Mark Teixeira, who gained nearly 20 games in the standings when he came over from the Braves. "I was probably a bad winner as a kid. If I was beating you by 10, I wanted to beat you by more. I just wanted to keep scoring points whether it was basketball or whatever.
"That's the way we are. We just want to keep winning games."
Wednesday's formula was a familiar one. The Angels are now 51-7 in games when they scored first (the most wins in the majors).
One night after being held to one hit in eight shutout innings by a rookie left-hander making his major-league debut (Chris Waters), the Angels faced another left-hander with similar stuff – Garrett Olson. But the Angels really had seen his act before and Olson didn't survive the third inning.
"This guy was the same way – lefty with the same stuff," Angels outfielder Torii Hunter said. "We just went out there and teed off on him.
"Baseball's a crazy game. You don't want to try and explain it."
The new middle of the Angels' lineup did most of the damage. Teixeira and Vladimir Guerrero combined to go 4-for-6 with five runs scored and four driven in. Guerrero had all four RBIs, two on a home run in the first inning and two more on a single off the right-field wall in the fourth.
The early offense made an easy day for Angels starter Ervin Santana (13-5).
Up 3-0 after the first inning and 9-1 through four, Santana had to exert more effort battling the heat – and perhaps his own boredom – than the Orioles' lineup.
He served up a three-run home run to Nick Markakis in the fifth inning but struck out seven, going seven innings for the 12th time in 23 starts this season.

Look away now, Paul Hollywood... Nadiya Hussain is concerned that Channel 4's Great British Bake Off could be a Top Gear-esque disaster.
The 2015 Bake Off winner also joked that while she will be tuning in for the new series, she may just watch the first one to criticise it (any excuse to get Mel, Sue and Mary Berry over for a cup of tea and some Viennese whirls).
"It certainly won't be the same Bake Off, it's going to change the whole Bake Off that we know, that I know," she said at Birmingham Town Hall while promoting her new book (via The Mirror).
"The one problem with humans is that we don't like change, and the second you change something that we love, people freak out a little bit. I think Brexit got less coverage!"
She continued: "They are going to change the format to get adverts in between but I still love Bake Off and I will still watch Bake Off when it's on Channel 4.
"I might just watch the first series just to criticise a little bit. We just don't want a repetition of Top Gear, do we?"
Chris Evans replaced Jeremy Clarkson on the BBC Two motor show last year, before announcing he was stepping down after just one series following a fall in ratings.
The author also suggested that replacing much-loved hosts Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc will be a big challenge, adding: "It's going to be tough to replace them. They are amazing, they make up such a massive part of the show.
"That's going to be tough shoes to fill."
Nadiya was promoting her debut novel The Secret Lives of the Amir Sisters.
The Great British Bake Off will air on Channel 4 with Paul Hollywood later this year.

I should have listened to my daughter Naisha Patterson owner of Brownstone Closets. She told me that I had too much stuff that I did not need. If I would have listened to her I would not have so much stuff to get rid of. I can not take a three bedroom, three and half bathroom, large completed basement house full of furniture to a two bedroom one bathroom apartment. That's what I call downsizing
Downsizing is rewarding when you are almost done packing and then moving to your new home. I will feel even better when I hand over the keys to the house and receive my check. I am often asked am I okay wit downsizing and moving. If you really know me that is a question you should not have to ask. I very, very rarely do anything I'm not sure about. God is my go to and he never leads me wrong.
Do not wait until you retire to get rid of stuff. There are things in your garage, storage or somewhere in the house that you have not looked at for months. You probably do not remember that you have it or why you have it. There was plenty of stuff in my garage and the basement that I forgot I bought it and why I bought it. I was able to donate, sell and give away a lot of stuff. There is always someone that can use the stuff that you are not using.
Get rid of the STUFF!

All four lifters represented Team USA admirably bringing home multiple gold, silver, and bronze medals and a Best Lifter award.
I spoke to event coach, Ben Hwa, of Hasslefree Barbell Club, about Team USA's trip to Lima:
Why did you attend this competition?
There are levels that lifters go through. When you lift in a gym, it's one thing. When you go to an international meet and win a medal, you are motivated to work even harder and you want to experience it again.
When I saw the invitation to this competition, I immediately recognized it as a good opportunity for our kids. When kids go to these meets, they come back so motivated. I took two of our 13-year old lifters, Julia and Haley. I wanted to show them how good they are in this sport to really help them commit.
Did the competition meet your expectations?
My expectations of the competition were low. I had gone to Columbia a few months before, and I was not expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised. Lima was very nice. It is right by the ocean. The food was really good. The people were friendly. And the meet was well organized for a South American event.
More importantly, though, it was great to see all of the 15 & Under kids–kids who I could see at the next Youth Worlds or Junior Worlds or even the Olympics. Even in other countries, everyone starts at the same place.
What lessons did you learn from this competition?
Being in Peru gave me full faith in my reason for coaching. I like being able to guide kids into a path that is full of success and growth and opportunity. I saw the Peruvian coaches and the Columbian coaches. They were all so supportive of the kids.
It also made me want to be a better coach. My athletes invest their time training with me, and I always want to be there for them. Sure, these competitions cost money–a lot of money sometimes–but as a coach, you have to be willing to give back to your athletes, even if it means taking time off work and spending money to travel. As a coach, you can preach all you want, but when it comes down to it, are you willing to sacrifice your money to be there for your athletes?
Why are competitions like this so important for youth weightlifters?
Weightlifting offers travel opportunities like no other sport. When kids get to see the world, they mature.
They see that the world is bigger than their neighborhood. They see others who are in true poverty. It helps them appreciate the things they have.
They understand how lucky they are. This perspective helps these lifters focus better in practice.
When you give kids opportunities to learn and grow, they become more mature, and their weightlifting comes along with it.
Do you want to see more opportunities like this in the future?
Absolutely. This is how we invest in the future of weightlifting. Something that we can do as a governing body is invest in trips. These kids come back different lifters. The more kids we can give this opportunity, the better.
Will Team USA return to this competition in 2018?
According to Phil Andrews, C.E.O. of USA Weightlifting, "We plan to go again this year if we are invited to do so. I thought it was a great competition, and Ben did really well in his coaching position."

And so the Bella Union love-in begins. It should come as no surprise to hear that this isn't the only album released on that particular label to feature in this list, after the quite magnificent array of records they've put out since January. There's a piece in the latest issue of The Word magazine proclaiming Bella Union the label of the year, and I don't think anyone could really argue with that.
Where to begin? Well, 'Blue As Your Blood' could be straight from 'The Age Of Understatement' by The Last Shadow Puppets, which is no bad thing. Meanwhile, 'Stranded' sounds oddly like the Stereophonics (I know, not often, but they were good at the start) crossed with Jona Lewie's 'Stop The Cavalry'. And, although I know what you're thinking, this is also no bad thing. The Walkmen have never previously sounded this good, so whatever it is they now actually sound like, whichever convoluted simile or metaphor gets wheeled out, it has to be a good thing. Because 'Lisbon' is a great record.
Hamilton Leithauser has a voice as good as his quite magnificent name and it is put to good use on this delightful record. I didn't really come to the record with preconceptions or expectations, having enjoyed 'A Hundred Miles Off' without actually feeling any great need to explore further. Thankfully, 'Lisbon' landed in my lap and my luck was in. 'Woe Is Me' is a bit of prime quality, slightly obscured vocal jangle rock, sounding not unlike a band quite fond of early to mid period Beatles. It's a wonderfully warm sounding record created by a band who truly sound like they love doing this. There's not an ounce of fat on 'Lisbon', although you suspect that the effortless feel is oh-so-very meticulous, for all the right reasons.
With lyrics like "I could dream of you forever" and numerous mentions of the "sky above", the lyrics aren't going to offer you a profound meditation on life, but they're entirely right for such an optimistic sounding record, and a record which was borne of fifties and sixties rock, when a well placed platitude worked wonders. If you don't finish listening to 'Lisbon' with a smile on a face I'd be really rather surprised. And suspicious.

350 cigarette additives should be published
15 May 2000
350 cigarette additives should be published
Green Party Health Spokesperson Sue Kedgley today said all 350 chemicals which are added to cigarettes should be published on the Ministry of Health website along with full information about these additives, including any health and safety concerns.
"Consumers have a right to know what particular cocktail of chemicals they are smoking in their cigarettes," she said.
Ms Kedgley said New Zealand law requires that any additives that are used in food are identified in ingredient listings so that consumers know what they are eating. The same rules should apply to cigarettes.
"Simply because cigarette manufacturers choose to use hundreds of additives should not make them exempt."
Ms Kedgley said a website in the meantime would provide interested consumers with the information they are entitled to. It may very well convince many to give up smoking.
"This is a very serious issue in the fight to reduce the amount of young people smoking," said Ms Kedgley. "These chemical additives are used to mask the smoke from cigarettes and lure young people into a deadly habit.
"The government should also move to set limits on the amount of aditives that can be added to cigarettes," she said. "At present there are no limits which means smokers currently have no idea what chemicals they are smoking, or in what quantities."

By Nikoleta Mountanos, Contributing Writer
The fall months are some of the last times that crowds of people will willingly go outside for more than an hour at a time. The long summer nights full of barbecues and fireflies have faded away, and before the nights by the fire, we celebrate with pumpkins, apple cider, and most importantly: Halloween. Costumes and candy galore, it's a kid's dream come to life, and in Gettysburg, an excuse for a parade.
The Bullets Marching Band participated in this town-wide Halloween Parade on Tuesday evening, along with large community organizations such as the Gettysburg Eagles and The Gettysburg Times. The parade also included students from the local elementary, middle, and high schools. Some students in their own marching bands even assisted the college marchers in keeping a steady beat.
The parade started at the Gettysburg Area Middle School — right by everyone's favorite ice cream shop, Mr. G's — and then headed up Baltimore Street towards the town square. They then turned right onto York Street, and right again to go onto Liberty Street, ending up back at the Gettysburg Area Middle School.
While the parade did not come onto campus directly, it was still a great experience for the college community to get together with the town itself and create a beautiful ceremony full of costumes, candy, and floats.

Ben's Chili Bowl, the iconic eatery on U Street, is more than just a place to get the best chili dogs in town. It is an institution, reflecting the changing African-American culture in Washington since it opened in 1958.
Next week the wife and children of the late owner, Ben Ali, will present artifacts and documents from the Washington landmark to the Africana Research Center at the library of the George Washington University.
Photos, papers and documents from Ben's Chili Bowl will be given to the Africana Research Center so it can continue to develop and preserve a collection to support research on the African-American experience throughout the 20th century.
Some of the artifacts were lost to the family throughout the years. It was almost a treasure hunt getting them back.

Snowdog & Snowpup Charity Fundraiser for Pilgrims Hospices
Following a successful 10-week public trail around the borough, Ashford's amazing Snowdog and Snowpup sculptures raised a total of £142,000 with a special charity night.
In a final farewell (following the success of the Farewell Weekend held at the Julie Rose Stadium on 1st and 2nd December), a glamorous gala auction was held at Ashford International Hotel, with celebrity TV auctioneer and hosts Michael Hogben and Alison Chapman at the helm as local businesses and residents clamoured for their favourite dog.
Mr Doodle's Doodle Dog sold for the highest bid of the night at £15,000 – with the man himself live doodling a picture that became part of the bidder's prize. Bagdogg, another popular pooch, sold for £9,000, just to name a few.
Snowdogs Discover Ashford was brought to the town over 10 weeks between September and November in a joint initiative by Wild in Art, Ashford Borough Council and Pilgrims Hospices, and the residents of Ashford embraced the magical event, based on the popular children's story The Snowman and the Snowdog by Raymond Briggs.
The Snowdog sculptures were designed by local artists and sponsored by local businesses, together with 19 Snowpups that have been designed and decorated by 19 local schools.

Why Blog?
Alas, I'm a blogger now.
So, there's undoubtedly a "blogger" stereotype: the crunchy, granola, coffee shop-going, knit sweater-wearing, nerdy writer. When I told my friends I was starting a travel/adventure blog, they laughed and kinda made fun of me--and rightfully so! I don't really fit that aesthetic. BUT, I do want to start blogging and working on web design for a few reasons:
1) There are 3 parts to a trip/adventure. First, anticipation and planning. I LOVE this phase. I stalk geotags on instagram, pin a million pictures on pinterest, etc. I've always been like this, especially before Disney World trips when I was little. Just writing that makes my heart flutter, hehe ;) Second, the trip itself--obviously amazing. Third, the years of reflection reflection. Blogging extends the third stage infinitely. You can relive the whole thing through pictures, videos, and words. Why spend the money if you forget half of it? That leads me to....
2) Humans forget so much! Do you ever hear a song or smell something and transport back in time for a few seconds? Well, I do and it freaks me! How did I forget that?! Some memories are worth memorizing. When I travel and go on adventures, there are those little things I want to remember. Like the questionably high, Jesus-loving waitress I talked to in Rome who moved from Louisiana and taught herself Italian. Or the amazing Tapas restaurant on said street in San Juan (see, I don't remember what street because I didn't write it down!) Blogging helps me remember.
3) I am a millennial. We share things. Maybe too much sometimes, true. But, I'm undoubtedly part of a connected generation and don't think it's a negative thing. Social Media provides amazing platforms, but having my own website gives me more flexibility and allows me to be creative and artsy. I want to share my experiences, tips, pictures, writing, and more with friends, family, and anyone else who's interested.
How I started my blog (& am starting)
I am still a total blog noob. About a year ago I made a wordpress account called "where is claire" (corny, I know) and shared some really poor quality pictures and summaries of a few trips. I'm in the process of revamping everything: starting a new Instagram, getting Reddit karma, learning how to edit in Lightroom, and more. I love always having a project to work on and pour my passion into.
I chose the name The Adventure Decade because: (1) 'Where is Claire' is kinda immature and silly. Obviously I liked it, but I like the new name better. (2) My boyfriend, Drew, is also into the whole travel scene and has been SO supportive of making the blog happen. I plan on doing most of my travel with him if he keeps me around, so it can't just be about me! We'll also share his travels. (3) There are so many travel bloggers out there. It's quite intimating and almost discouraging. BUT, you have to ask yourself: "what is your competitive advantage?" And I would say it is my age (just turned 21). I'm about 6-10 years younger than the average travel blogger and don't have some story about quitting my corporate job. Just a kid starting her 20s with no regrets or lost years, ready to get after seeing the world. I'm trying to make this decade the most amazing, eventful, fun ten years possible. (4) So its mostly 'travel' but I also want to include day trips and other smaller activities. 'Adventure' encompasses it all. AND there you have it! Claire and Drew the Travel and Adventure Bloggers with the name The Adventure Decade.
My goals for my blog right now are to record the trips I have gone on so far for the reasons above, share tips and highlights with you, get good at editing pictures, and learn more about the whole blogging scene. People that do travel blogging full time monetize their websites and get all sorts of sponsorships and free hotel stays. Literally the dream! However, I have the next 6ish years of my life planned out (maybe will explain later) so this is my "side hustle" for now ;)
Thanks so much for reading! Can't wait to share this decade of adventure with you.

Brandstad signed the Move Over definition bill into law covering. the utility maintenance vehicle definition. While utility workers have been covered under the law, the Iowa Code lacked a comprehensive definition that detailed specific industry sectors that are considered "utilities" for the purposes of the Move Over or Slow Down law. The debate over this legislation remained positive throughout and gave Iowa's electric cooperatives and others the opportunity to raise awareness about the Move Over law and talk about ways that we can improve line personnel safety.
If you pass a
vehicle on the side of the road, regardless of what type of
vehicle, remember, there is a person associated with it. And that person might also be a dad, or a husband, or a son; or even a mom, a wife, or a daughter.
When our linemen have a truck parked to work on your power lines, keep in mind that their daily job contains enough hazardous in itself: working high in the air, working on energized line, handling heavy and specialized equipment.
They work as safely as they can all day long so they can go home to their families at night. The last thing they need to worry about is you hitting their truck and causing an unsafe condition for them.
Help line workers go home safely to their families – if you see them working – move over and slow down.

Amphibious Firefighting Helmet
Amphibious Firefighting Helmet
DAT BV, a company that develops and manufactures amphibious vehicles, was investigating the feasibility and marketability of an amphibious firetruck. Amphibious firetrucks could be useful as first response vehicles in water-rich municipalities as a faster alternative to fireboats.
Current firefighting equipment is not suited for use in and around the water, and switching gear in the middle of a rescue mission wastes precious time. That's why I designed the world's first amphibious firefighting helmet.

Baboo is a cute huggable creature with a built in camera. Together with your child you can talk to him about things your child experienced. Think birthday parties, school trips and holidays. In the eyes of the child you're not 'filming' with a camera, but rather 'telling' and 'showing' something to a friend. You'll spend quality time with your kid and build a collection of fun, spontaneous movies to rewatch later.
The original Nescafé Dolce Gusto packaging was, in my opinion, bland and uninspring, especially for a premium coffee brand. The capsules offer so much potential in terms of packaging design, and it was left completely untapped.
That's why I decided to redesign the packaging with a focus on the capsules. The new packaging allows the packaging to turn into a display tray that presents the capsules to the user. This is a fictional project, not a commission by Nescafé.
The Nomadic Vehicle
The Nomadic Vehicle
The Mammoth is not only a screw-propelled autonomous vehicle, but also a nomadic house. The Mammoth was designed for Nomad City, a city vision by Diamadis Tegkelidis, during the minor Automotive Design. This city is located in a snowy environment and is entirely made up of moving houses.
The Mammoth shelters its inhabitants from the harsh weather conditions, allowing them to move around the city without going inside. The mammoths can connect with each other to create the shared social spaces that are important in human society.
I did some freelance illustration work for Ark Media, a dutch publisher. The first book I did illustrations for was Inspire by Marloes Gersen: a book filled with, amongst other things, creative DIY projects. Most of these drawings illustrate the
step-by-step instructions for these projects. For the second book, Pelgrimage van Smaragd by Annamarie Latour and Frank Bosman, I created a map of Ireland to show the route the writers describe in the book.
Some projects, like my graduation project, cannot be displayed on this website, but I'll gladly discuss them in person.

Tennis: Maria Sharapova was an early casualty in Doha, Qatar, and Mladenovic and Kvitova win their first rounds.
The Doha, Qatar tournament is loaded with the top players including Caroline Wozniacki, the recently crowned world number one and Australian Open champion.
Maria Sharapova loses early to a qualifier.
One of the early casualties was Maria Sharapova. She went down to, the Romanian qualifier, Monica Niculescu in three. Monica, like Sharapova, is 30-years old, and that's where the similarities end. While Sharapova is a ball basher, Monica is a slicer and dicer whose game can disrupt anyone's rhythm on the court. She has beaten even Petra Kvitova in the past. Maria Sharapova's one-dimensional baseline power game, sans the meldonium, was incapable of turning the match around.
138mph had predicted Maria Sharapova's fate.
Maria Sharapova's fate, early on in the 2018 season, is following our ominous prediction. As detailed in our last post, about the movers and shakers for 2018, the players do not fear or respect Maria anymore. In fact, they have little more than disgust for her and what she did to get an unfair edge for over 10 years. That was one more wasted wild-card on the WTA's and tournament organizers' darling, while many deserving, non-dopers, wait on the sidelines to get their breaks. Well done the WTA. Perhaps, the WTA is waiting for Sharapova to retire before they ban the issuance of wild-cards to those caught and banned for doping.
Madison to play Bellis in the second round.
Yet another ball basher, Madison Keys was back to her ball bashing best in routing Wang in straight. Her reward is a match with her countrywoman Cici Bellis, who moved onto the second round after Daria Kasatkina, her opponent, retired because of an injury.
Mladenovic and Kvitova continue their winning ways.
Kristina Mladenovic and Petra Kvitova carried their Fed Cup form, over the past weekend, to Doha and defeated their opponents in straight. Kvitova will now face Agnieszka Radwanska and Mladenovic will have to contend with Blinkova, a qualifier.
The top seeds enjoyed a bye in the first round.
Caroline Wozniacki, Simona Halep, Karolina Pliskova, Garbine Muguruza, Caroline Garcia, Jelena Ostapenko, Elina Svitolina, and Angelique Kerber received a bye in the first-round.

You might have cried your self to sleep more than as soon as just since you suspected your boyfriend was dishonest on you. The consequences of this carry over into the workplace, where ladies aged from 22 to 29 sometimes now earn £1,111 extra a yr than their male peers. "Guys say many women clearly don't want their date to give them a hug or open the door." Lower your guard, flex those lips right into a smile and be nice.
The concept women ought to be cute and guys needs to be powerful will not be good for society, however as a result of they are primarily based on human instinct, many guys sub-consciously need cute vulnerability in girls, even when they consciously assume robust ladies are admirable.
Most males love a woman who knows what she wants and goes after it. When you have your eye on a man, harness your inside confidence (do not forget to power pose!) and ask him out. Typically one of the best ways to find a boyfriend is to cease attempting so hard.
But if you're wondering why you're not at present relationship anybody, this quiz will help pinpoint the real motive. Earlier than you get to the highly hectic parts of interacting with potential boyfriends, use your shy demeanor to work to your benefit. Let's face it, no one desires the particular person they're dating to be lazy and sloppy trying.
'Since then I've used on-line relationship and tried so far solely those that specified an analogous stage of training on their profile,' she says. In case your ex was fabulous, your date will really feel he cannot measure up. But in the event you bash your ex an excessive amount of, your date may think, Whoops—she is likely to be speaking about me that way in a few months!

What do you feel when you see a dog on a treadmill? Envious of the animal's dedication to exercise? Amused by the meme-like scenario? Or confused by the fact that the treadmill is underwater? At Healing Paws Veterinary Rehabilitation Center in Providence, the treadmill is neither a prop for a joke nor a reminder of a broken New Year's resolution. It is an instrumental aid for helping paralyzed patients – pets – relearn to walk after surgery.
When he arrived in Rhode Island from North Carolina, veterinarian Jeff Corey was surprised that the state lacked a fully equipped rehab facility for animals, so he decided to open one in 2006. Corey says, "I gravitated toward rehab because it provides me an opportunity to really get to know both the patient and their owner, since they often come on a weekly basis for several weeks to even several months." He also receives satisfaction from witnessing the direct impact of his help when his furry patients improve.
While Corey really enjoys spending time with the cats and dogs at the center, his process is not all fun and games. In fact, he employs a methodical and studied approach to healing. Following a thorough consultation, during which he learns about the animal's history, lifestyle, and past treatments, Corey performs a physical exam. Based on his findings, he develops a custom plan to address the problem. The various rehab modalities he uses include land-based strengthening and range-of-motion exercises, massage, and therapeutic laser. When his patients cooperate, they get a treat.
Oftentimes, though, it takes more than peanut butter to motivate. Among some challenging cases, Corey recalls, is one that involved a nine-year-old Boston terrier who had suffered respiratory arrest and couldn't lift his head or maintain an upright posture. Luckily, no one was giving up. "Through his perseverance and drive, as well as the tremendous commitment on the part of his owners, he is now motoring all over the place in his Quad cart and is starting to be able to take several consecutive steps in a row without assistance."
Corey stresses the importance of the clients' dedication to their pet's recovery. "We work together as a team, and a big part of rehab is showing clients exercises they can do at home in between sessions." In some cases, however, rehab alone won't suffice. Corey says that he then connects the clients with proper specialists who will help them resolve the issue. A proud owner of a dog and three cats himself, Corey is ready to do whatever it takes to "add more years to their life and more life in their years."

I do NOT do conversational texting. For fuck's sake.
In the last month, I've had to tell so many people that. And by people, I mean men. Or boys, the jury's still out on some of them as far as maturity goes.
So yeah, I'm a bit grumpy. But here's the score, right:
- I've worked a wide range of jobs, but the one I hated most involved a lot of SMS communication. A lot of back-and-forth frustration, and people forwarding my replies to others, resulting in more difficulty for me. Even when I put the word out that I prefer phone calls, nothing changed. People (again, more specifically, males) are very selective with what they want to see and deal with, and it caused me so much grief. Then again, I know I wasn't very good at ignoring the negative and harmful stuff. I was in a spectacularly bad place mentally and that style of communication made things feel so much worse. I used it to attack and be attacked. It makes me nervous just remembering.
- I've had a handful of rather toxic relationships, and it seemed that those particular exes had something in common – they each loved texting and did a lot of it. I understand that phone calls can be quite daunting for some, but these particular people thrived on it. Always, a new message. If ignored, forgotten or I was simply busy, another one to follow up.
The shameful thing is that I mirrored those behaviours. I thought to myself, "If you're gonna be on my ass 24/7, then I'll be on yours too. This shit goes both ways." Toxicity in full play. I sent tediously long texts explaining things not only so I could be clear with what I meant, but so I could hopefully be left alone for a bit after sending. Like, "Yeah, that'll take you a while to digest… right? I just wanna fucking relax, I mean damn." But no matter how specific I tried to be, I'd always be misunderstood. And in turn, I'd misunderstand things too. A tragic failure in communication, definitely.
As far as general harassment and abuse goes, both inside and outside of personal relationships and work-related or not, it was always texting used as the method. So much hateful bullshit in and out, in and out. Some people will text bomb you just to fuck with you and make you feel like your entire existence is only as small as a smartphone. It was hard to snap out of because it was something I was coerced into for so long, but now I realise that if someone repeatedly refuses to respect that I won't text them all day or night about seemingly inconsequential and inane things, then they can do without talking to me. I just need to remind myself that not everyone's going to feel the same way and that's fine.
Those aforementioned people need to realise that my texting falls into two categories – either urgent/essential matters including things like work shifts and medical appointments and personal meetings, or meaningful exchanges with people who are very close to me.
Basically, if you can't pay me, heal me or love me, don't text me. If it's something important enough to call me for, then by all means, call me. If you just wanna chat, that's important enough; loneliness is a motherfucker. Anyway, I deserve proper communication with all its tones and nuances, and so do you. Ya dig?

Weekend 2 of S2 filmig was a blast! The new cast members all wrapped out and there's just one more weekend of shooting to be done in January.
Paula had a fantastic time getting to work with one of her all-time favorites, Jim Beaver again. He plays George Darling, the patriarch of the Darling clan, and no one could do it better : ) Here he is with Brennan Murray as Brennan's character (Michael) gets ready to film a costume theater bit of Jim's character. The resemblance is uncanny hehehe:


text: Lets just say talking about penises during a job interview probably isn't the best idea for landing the job. But at least I was honest right?! Maybe I should have lied lol. I don't know how I did it but I ended up getting the job so if you're ever in an interview, just talk about penis, it works.

Spending a weekend in Belfast was something my friend (J) suggested during one of those days at work. I was studying for an exam which took over a large chunk of the start of my year, so a girls weekend in N. Ireland for the month after that sounded like a cracking idea. We booked it during a lunch hour, with some cheap Ryanair flights and two nights at the Maldron Hotel.
It was always going to be a whistle stop tour, with approximately 48 hours in total in the city however that only got tighter when the flight was delayed at both Stansted and Belfast. We hadn't noticed in advance that there were issues at Stansted, so we happily boarded the flight to find out after waiting on the tarmac for a while that due to ground staff strikes, the luggage from the previous flight still hadn't been removed let alone the suitcases for the passengers on our flight being loaded up! After over two hours sat on the plane, we finally were able to take off and were able to relax for the majority of the journey, until we started hitting some turbulence due to a storm over Belfast. It turns out the lady sat next to me was not a happy flier and, despite not being a fan of turbulence myself, I found myself chatting to this lady to distract her from how badly we were being flung around. Her panic hit peak when the captain announced that we had enough fuel to circle of 5 more minutes before we would have to divert to Dublin. Excellent. Thankfully, he did manage to land the plan – though if my new pal was to be believed it was more miracle than skill. It didn't end there, the air crew weren't allowed to let us off of the plane even after we'd landed, due to the weather being so terrible – and to be fair to them, I've lived in England my entire life and have rarely seen rain quite like it. When we were finally told to hold on tight to the stairs and make a run for it into the terminal, I realised just how bad it was as we had to dash through ankle deep water all the way in. So not the best flight I've ever had, particularly given we'd scrimped on paying for seats together as it was only a 50 minute flight, which ended up being nearer 4 hours all-in.
J was the organiser of the trip, and had done some research in advance – largely getting tips from friends on which drinking establishments to try out. Once we'd checked in and dried out a little at the hotel, we went to the first of these which as a traditional pub just down a side street in the centre called Kelly's Cellars. It was heaving, probably partially due to the weather, but we were quick to be served and found ourselves a place to perch. Our favourite thing in this pub was the live music, that made an old pub something quite fun and lively! From what I've read since, they have Irish musicians playing regularly so I'd advise checking it out.
We could only stay there for a couple of drinks as we had pre-booked a Titanic-themed escape room just around the corner at Timescape. I wouldn't typically do an escape game on a holiday/weekend getaway, but me and J have done a few together at home before so decided this would be fun – and we were right! Despite it only being the 2 of us, and needing a few hints along the way, we managed to crack the codes and get our life jackets on with a couple of minutes to spare. The photo of us in our old-school life jackets is one of the least flattering we've managed together so far.
My last top tip for a Saturday night in Belfast, book a table for dinner in advance – it turns out the whole town is out on a weekend. We traipsed around at least 4 different restaurants in town before we found one that had a space an hour and a half later.
With only 24 hours really left to see the city, we tried to pack a lot into our Sunday. First stop of the morning was St George's Market for breakfast and a nose around the stalls. I love going to markets and this one didn't disappoint. There was so many choices for food but we settled on a barbecue rib sandwich (I wish I remembered the name of the stall) that, alongside a cup of tea, was everything we needed to get going for the day. We ate these in the middle of the market where there was a small seating area and folk band playing. The market is a combination of food stalls, gifts and crafts, and antiques. We spent a good couple of hours roaming around the aisles and settled on each buying some knitted socks and a pair of Celtic symbol earrings.
Next up, we had walk along the river up to see the Titanic museum. On the approach was the SS Nomadic, the sister ship to the Titanic and the last remaining White Star Lane ship. Naturally, we were curious, and so we decided to go and have a poke around. The ship is full of information relating to the Titanic, stories of the passengers, a wardrobe of the kind of clothes they would've worn. We spent about half an hour wandering around playing the interactive quizzes and reading the facts when J came hurrying over to tell me there was a queue of people having their tickets checked as they came onto the ship. This was weird, we'd walked straight on.. Turns out, we'd walked straight on the first set of doors and had a nice time looking around the ship without ever realising we'd entered through the exit!! The man guarding the exit was so enthusiastic about telling visitors information on the boat he hadn't noticed us come in and we hadn't even realised this. We quickly disembarked and walked up to the main museum to actually buy our tickets.
Lesson two of booking in advance – don't go to main attractions without pre-arranging tickets! The next slot was 3 hours later and we weren't able to sweet talk the ticket office man into making any exceptions to this. We decided we'd already seen the Nomadic and learnt some of the Titanic stories onboard there, so we would give up on the museum and spent the time seeing some other sights and more importantly get ourselves a drink.
We headed towards the Dirty Onion bar which J had been recommended, walking back along the river and crossing over by a big sculpture of a fish. If you're into street art, the walk up to the Dirty Onion, through the Cathedral Quarter is full of large colourful murals. The bar is in an old building at the back of it's beer garden, it was dimly lit but with a fire going to keep it warm, and in the corner was what appeared to be a group of local musicians playing traditional Irish music together which provided light entertainment. We only stopped for a quick couple of drinks to plan our next move, which became a walk up to the botanical gardens – one of my favourite things to do in places I visit!
The walk up across to the parks was a fairly long one but it was well worth it. J and myself have both recently bought our own flats and have found ourselves getting into our plants so we enjoyed nosing around the buildings having a look through the different plants. We then found the rose garden and probably spent at least an hour walking through the rows of roses, looking at all the different types and colours and planning how we'd make our own gardens look the same (unfortunately I can't see my garden being as gorgeous as this was any time soon).
It had been a long day so we started meandering back through the parks and towards the city to find somewhere for dinner. Having once again not booked a table, we headed to a Pizza Express we had passed on the way (cultural) and used J's TasteCard for a 2-for-1 pig out. J checked back over the bars she'd been recommended and worked out there were two right by our hotel where we could unwind over a few cocktails. The first was Rita's, which is another dimly lit bar filled with plush pink and red seats, with a great range of cocktails – I had a Mai Tai and a Rising Sun Sling, of which both were delicious. The bar wasn't busy, though it was a Sunday evening, so we got served quickly and could sit back and relax for the while we were there. We followed on from these by popping into Perch Rooftop Bar which was just next door and not at all obvious. This was probably both of our favourite bars that we went to (the only thing missing from here that all the pubs seemed to have was some live music). I'd suggest the bar isn't so much rooftop as a sort-of attic, but with a roof over only half of it with the rest more open top – which does make it a little chilly but there are blankets dotted around to wrap yourself up in. It's laid out a bit like a garden, filled with plants with a fake grass flooring and with wooden beams and exposed brick walls, with fairy lights and lanterns coming on after dark. We stayed here for another few drinks, enjoying the bartenders taste in music (a little bit of Take That always goes down well) and the cosy feel.
Unfortunately that was largely the end of our trip, we stopped to listen to a last set of Irish folk music at the pub opposite the hotel (Fibber Magee) before heading back into the hotel for the night. Our flight the next morning was much less dramatic than the one out to Belfast and we got back with enough time for me to unpack and nap before my evening boxing class.

A million years from now when I have children one of theany important things I will teach them is good phone manners.
Every job I've had has involved answering phones in the job description. After almost ten years I'm sick of the idiots! "I think I need service or something.". That is NOT accetable! Do you or don't you? Why don't you THINK about it before you pick up the phone?!
As a child your parents probably told you to think before you speak. Well the same thing applies here. You called me. Not the other way around so it's best to have a name in mind or at least have your thoughts formulated.
I have never claimed to have the most ladylike manners, but I do believe in treating service personnel with courtesy. We have all been there at one time or another so make it a little easier.

Browsing Working Papers (ECON) by Author "Rosholm, Michael"
Now showing items 1-1 of 1
Scheuer, Christian; Sørensen, Anders; Rosholm, Michael (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper investigates the impact of globalization, in the sense of increasing international trade, on the demand for skills in Danish manufacturing companies. The study is based on a unique data set that enables us to develop rich measures of international outsourcing and import penetration. Moreover, the data also allows several strategies to strengthen the causal interpretation of our results. The main finding of the analysis is that it is of crucial importance to distinguish imports - both in the form of outsourcing and overall imports - by country-of-origin. We find that international trade with low-wage countries leads to skill-upgrading. This is especially pronounced for import penetration with a ceteris paribus contribution of around fifty percent to skill-upgrading. Moreover, we find that import penetration in goods originating from high-wage countries lead to skill-downgrading. This latter result suggests that Danish manufacturing has comparative advantage in skillintensive production when compared to low-wage countries, but in unskill-intensive production when compared to high-wage countries.

Standards for Managers
Lisa over at Management Craft has a great post entitled Standards for Managers.
It is a great list of "standards" that managers should have. My question is, as the leader of some great managers am I leading them or enabling them to meet these standards?
What do you think about the standards?

Ludwig Cancer Research has chosen Lausanne as one of its main international sites and intends to invest more than CHF 100 million over the next ten years on applied cancer immunology and the design of novel molecular and cell-based immunotherapies, under a framework agreement with the Canton of Vaud covering a 30-year timescale.
"We are very enthusiastic about opening a Ludwig Branch in Lausanne," said Edward Mc Dermott, CEO of Ludwig, in a press release. "We were greatly impressed by the scope and depth of scientific and IT expertise to be found there, not only in its academic institutions, but also in its biotech firms. I'm convinced that our partnership will be of immense benefit to cancer patients everywhere."
Ludwig Lausanne will be based at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and the Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV), and will operate in close collaboration with the new Swiss Cancer Center Lausanne (SCCL). The new branch will also work closely with Geneva institutions, the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and EPFL's cancer and bioengineering research programs to develop the next generation of immune engineering technologies.

If you experience any issues playing Minecraft on the PC or Mac Java version on June 7th don't worry — it's Mojang/Microsoft Studios, not you. On the Minecraft.net site Tom Stone announced that there will be a service outage on that date. Downtime should be short with around two hours planned for according to the post on the official Minecraft site.
Most systems related to the PC edition of Minecraft and account.mojang.com will be unavailable – but for hopefully no more than a couple of hours. Minecraft.net will still be functional, but the store pages and account-functionality will also be unavailable.
The nature of the maintenance outage is somewhat vague. The post cites "essential downtime" so that they can upgrade their systems.
Minecraft PE, Windows 10 and Switch Edition
Players of Pocket or Windows 10 Editions will not experience any downtime. Similarly, Nintendo Switch and console players will remain unaffected. If you normally play the Java version but also play Minecraft PE, grab a Pocket Edition Seed from our sister site and give Pocket Edition another spin. You may be surprised how far it has come!
Monitor Mojang Status
While there will be another update on the Minecraft.net site closer to the actual downtime our recommendation \or up-to-date information is to follow Mojang Status on Twitter.

A better night at WF last night except for 1 bit.
I broke another saddle. Thats saddle #2 to give up the ghost at WF. And the 3rd saddle thats failed on me. 1st was my original WTB back on the Giant Rainer that eventually the rails simply flattened/crushed on. 2nd was my Terry Fly Ti. Rail snapped while riding towards Salemander at WF on the rocks. This one failed somewhere early I think in phase 1 headed towards the creek trail section 3. It survived the next 8 mile pretty well. A Selle Italia that had been on there for at least 2 years. I think it's a good reflection that I am a better rider but I still do sit too much. I'm sure the PA Adventure also contributed to it's recent failure. That was a LOT of rocks.
New tubeless tire up front gets a mixed rating, but I expect that to improve. I had WAY too much air at around 34/35psi in it last night and expect it to get less-funky/loose when I drop it to 30'ish.
Boy was that tire a B@#!! to get mounted. Super tight bead. I also had to go back nearly flatten it 2 times then use stans on a rag to get 2 spots to seat properly/slip the bead in to seat. Those pops always are good for a scare. :)
Tuesday I went down to WF post work for a pre-ride beer and ended up with a 11oz BCS from Goose Island from 2012. Hell yah! 15%+ ABV. It's a monster and it's smoother than at release for sure with a year aging. Went down super nice. And I weaved my way towards Barlington the first 2 miles of the WOD I rode. No food plus 15% = Ass kicking booze hit. Even in 11 OZ.
Went down to Mad Rose with a few navigation mis-cues but got there eventually. In time to score a free beer to start with, a Lagunitas IPA. Damn good. Saw a few known faces, talked with Mike E for a bit. Got some food order and checked out the Race Dots. Excellent idea. Mini Magnets setup for holding on race #'s for bike and running races. No safety pins. Really strong magnets. Lets you slide them and the plate around your shirt.
Busy weekend on deck again. Plans tonight, work sat, ride Saturday afternoon, party Sat, Sun big ride on road, and other crap.
I'll be so glad when I have 2 official days off again. Off for more free taco's at work now. Viva la Bell!

What are the benefits of squash seeds?
Marked as spam
Private answer
Squash seeds are rich in zinc, which increases the bone density and helps in fighting osteoporosis. Squash seeds contain vitamin E and antioxidant properties that protect the skin from free radicals. They are also rich in protein and fiber that help in losing weight. They maintain prostate health, boost libido, and also increase sexual performance.

Digitisation projects have created a wealth of online historical primary sources, resources which vary widely in scope and ambition, and in the sophistication and usability of their user interfaces. But even the most carefully designed is likely to frustrate the research needs of many historians who will use it. Every project is governed by material and conceptual considerations which inevitably shape and constrain the final resource. But primary sources are multivalent, capable of answering a wide range of questions depending on research priorities and methods.
In this paper, I discuss the challenges and benefits of re-using already digitised primary source data, using the London Lives Petitions Project as my main case study. London Lives, 1690-1800 (www.londonlives.org) contains possibly the largest digitised collection of local petitions in existence (about 10,000, as it turns out), but they have been difficult to access and use because of the size and variety of the series of documents through which they are dispersed and the limitations of the existing data structure. My aim has been to extract those petitions from the London Lives XML data and create a text corpus with associated metadata which will enable in-depth research. I will examine how decisions made in the original digitisation project may help or hinder this task, and outline some of the key tools and techniques used in taking apart and reshaping an existing dataset to create a new resource.
