VU Amsterdam focuses on four profile themes
Over the coming years, the university will be focusing particularly on strengthening the link between science and society. As part of its work analysing social issues and searching for solutions, the university has identified four themes, which are described in the VU Strategic Plan 2015-2020 (IP):
1. Governance for Society
2. Human Health & Life Sciences
3. Connected World
4. Science for Sustainability
By focusing its teaching and research activities on these four themes, VU Amsterdam is creating a clearer profile for students, researchers, businesses, funding agencies, government bodies and other (knowledge) partners. The themes are, in part, based on the identity of the university and its core values. These themes not only make us more distinctive as an institution, but they also encourage cooperation across the boundaries of academic disciplines.
The way in which science relates to business, and vice versa, is constantly changing. Contemporary social issues are increasing in complexity and require a more multi-disciplinary approach. The scientists and professionals of the future must be able to cooperate with others beyond the boundaries of their own specialist fields. Science is increasingly being challenged to justify its role in society. As a university, we need to ask ourselves how we should handle this development. How can we integrate scientific and technological developments into our culture as a university, and what does this mean for people, their values and identities?
With our research and education, we want to make the world better. By focusing on education along the four themes Connected World, Governance for Society, Human Health and Life Sciences and Science for Sustainability, we encourage collaboration between different fields.
During the 135th anniversary of VU Amsterdam, four anniversary conferences took place. The topics of these conferences were the four profile themes of VU Amsterdam.

Rat kill
4 comments:
I have reasons to believe that you are sharing your room not with rats, but with gambas ( dont know the name in english), good news they eat snakes and spiders, bad news they also like to eat eggs and to move a lot at night...I had an unpleasant chance to share my roof with some of them in a country house not long ago , and yes, they are noise as can be.

Funny you, it is an oversized smelly marsupial-looking like rat-thing and, in having a chance they can eat all eggs and chicks from your galinheiro. Any news from the new old boy m., when looking to his face I see some signs of FA syndrome in he, if so, he needs special attention and more grace from above in dealing with. Have a good day, F.

M is doing well. I agree regarding your observation. He certainly has specific needs, although I can't tell whether it's a result of years of drug abuse on the street or genetic. Either way, let's think and pray together for him.

Samsung Washer Fault Codes
We can say that Samsung washer repair is one of the easiest ones in the sense that technology itself often "tells" what is wrong with it. This is done so that not just technicians, but you too could understand a reason of breakdown. Below is a list of the most common Samsung washer error codes and their meaning.
4E (Е1)– WATER SUPPLY ERROR – An error which indicates that water level frequency displays a change of at most 100 Hz. It may also mean that 10 minutes (or more) has passed since the machine launch, but the water did not reach the preset level. Often, this error will be released by restarting the machine, i.e. pressing Off and On button.
5E(E2) – WATER DRAIN ERROR – 5E error indicates water drainage issues. It can be resolved by switching power supply off and then back on.
oE (OF)– OVER-FLOW ERROR – Overflow error indicates that water level in the washer is too high or too much washing powder/liquid has been added. Just switch power supply off, wait for 30 seconds and then switch it back on. Usually, this solves the problem.
UE (E4) – UNBALANCE ERROR – This error indicates that the drum is over- or under-loaded. This is not an error but rather a tip advising you what to pay attention to for safe and efficient washing. Just try to avoid overloading the washer with items and running the cycle for just one shirt.
HE WATER HEATER ERROR – This abbreviation indicates an error with water temperature/heating. It can be tricky, so if you see these letters on the display – call tech support immediately.
1E(E7) – WATER PRESSURE SWITCH ERROR – this error indicates pressure issue, which may be a result of relay breakdown. First, try resetting all settings (switch the appliance off and back on) and restart the process. If you still see this error – call the specialist.
CE – ABNORMAL WATER TEMPERATURE ERROR – An error, which is displayed if the temperature does not match the washing mode. E.g., water is too hot for a sensitive mode.
11E – WATER LEAKAGE ERROR – Water leak error, which occurs when water leaks through the drainage after the washing cycle starts.
TE – THERMISTOR ERROR – Mechanical error, which may be reset by simply switching the appliance off on the control panel, waiting for 30 seconds and then turning it back on.
3E – MOTOR RESTRICTION ERROR – Indicates problems with motor that may also be reset by restarting the system and washing cycle. If switching the power off and back on did not help, contact the specialist.
These are not all possible error codes that Samsung washer may display, though they are the most common. Most of them may be resolved by simply switching the machine off and then back on. In any other cases or if restarting the machine does not work, contact the specialist.

On Thursday, September 3rd, The Front welcomed artist Ivan Abreu and his multimedia exhibit Looming.
Born and raised in Cuba, Abreu currently works as a graphic designer, an academic and an artist. Nineteen years ago, Abreu was invited to do a poster exhibition in Mexico City at the age of twenty-six. At the end of the exhibit, he stayed. He has lived in Mexico City ever since.
Art curator Illya Hiro recently invited him to depict the border between San Diego and Tijuana through abstract multi-media art.
Curator Illya Haro
Haro invited Abreu precisely because he was not an artist from Tijuana or San Diego. Instead, she wanted an artist who represented translocation, who knew something about migration, identity and mobility all at once. Haro worked as Exhibition Manager for five years in CECUT's Centro Cultural de Tijuana. Having studied art history in Rome, she made connections internationally and knew Abreu from other projects.
Deeply involved in the project herself, Haro first took many photographs atop the hills of Tijuana that overlook the border. Starting in the posh areas of Tijuana and making her way to the Otay Mountains and the Tijuana International Airport, Haro sent the photographs to Abreu in Mexico City, who then generated more than 500 photographs on the computer.
For Haro, the exhibit was personal. Born in Tijuana, Haro grew up as a transnational, moving back and forth from San Diego and Tijuana regularly. For her, the border was a normal condition. Due to economic possibility and the fact that she stemmed from a family that had roots in Tijuana for generations, Haro always had the visa and was able to go back and forth between San Diego and Tijuana at all times.
Given the opportunity to create an exhibit for The Front in San Ysidro, she realized the importance of this border town. Admittedly, Haro had only passed through San Ysidro for three reasons: the Casa de Cambio, the bank and the gas station. When considering an at exhibit about mobility, it was only appropriate to have the exhibit open in San Ysidro.
What's more, Haro didn't want to talk about migration, mobility and the border in a literal way. In particular, she didn't want to depict the border in its usual negative terms. Instead, she and Abreu wanted to think about mobility and migration in a poetic way.
They choose to analyze the conditions of when you are in TJ looking toward San Diego and how everything is effects your point of view: the weather, your position, the time, the day, the moment.
Looming, The Atmospheric Landscape
Abreu combined his interest in atmospheric pictures of landscape with what was really going on at the border. He first wrote a computer program that could read the daily changes in climate. Some of the data that was produced in these climate reports included atmospheric visibility. Abreu then tried to imagine what the landscape would look like using the information he was receiving. For approximately three months, Abreu overlayed the daily weather logarithm to the photographs.
The result was a running movie consisting of 500 photographs of the border panorama with the changing atmosphere. Alongside the movie, the exhibit displayed 17 still photographs of the atmospheric panorama on the walls.
The Watchtowers
In the center of the space, small watchtowers stood like chess pieces on top of a smooth white surface. Abreu modeled each watchtower a little differently and wanted to create a sense of distance. "They are watchtowers. They are stairs. People that are on vigil, they always go up the stairs to look even farther."
Every few minutes a camera photographed the watchtowers and the image was projected onto a wall. The watchtowers appeared life-size against the background of the Tijuana atmospheric panorama. The work of art brought both watchtowers and atmospheric visibility together in a constantly changing piece.
Abreu explained that the watchtowers represent residents climbing up to see what is in the beyond. "When you are at the border, you are always very attentive to what is going on on the other side, to what's on the horizon."
When asked if Abreu could relate to this from having lived in isolated Communist Cuba, always looking towards the United States and wondering about life on the horizon, he responded quickly: Yes.
Abreu said, "The border is the third country. It's another way of thinking. The thinking is more global…"
Thanks to Lisa Hoffman for helping translate Ivan Abreu's explanation of his exhibit!

Beijing police arrested dozens of Christian worshipers yesterday from a "house church" — one not formally recognized by the government — when they tried to pray outdoors, a rights group said. They sang hymns and said prayers as police loaded them onto waiting buses in Beijing's western Hai-dian District, the US-based Christian rights group China Aid said in a statement, citing witnesses.
"The Beijing authorities have again demonstrated their total disregard of their citizens' constitutionally guaranteed fundamental right to religious freedom," China Aid founder and president Bob Fu (傅希秋) said in the statement.
Police declined to comment when contacted and requested written questions be faxed to them.
The New York Times reported that one if its photographers was among those detained, but was later released.
China Aid said more than 100 were detained, but the newspaper said "dozens" of people were held.
The US and the UN have expressed serious concerns in the past week at a growing crackdown across China in which artists, lawyers, writers, activists and intellectuals have been detained.
The church incident comes a week after Ai Weiwei (艾未未), an outspoken artist who helped design the "Bird's Nest" Olympic Stadium for the 2008 Beijing Games, was detained for unspecified "economic crimes."
The church tried to hold services in the open air after it was evicted from a rented space because the landlord was pressured to not renew the lease, China Aid said.
Shouwang, one of Beijing's largest house churches, invited its members to meet yesterday morning at an open air public platform linking the SinoSteel Building and the South China Poetic Restaurant building, China Aid said.
Some of the detainees were taken to a nearby elementary school where authorities took down their names and other details, the statement said.
Several church leaders were called to their local police stations on Saturday, with some spending the night in detention, while others were told they were not permitted to leave their homes yesterday, the statement said.
China only allows religious worship in state-approved churches.
Organizers of underground churches are routinely sent to labor camps without trial.
Meanwhile, the government has called on organizers of an annual series of inter-university debates on the meaning of the 1911 revolution to cancel the event amid fears of unrest in the country, a Hong Kong newspaper reported yesterday.
The ban, ordered by the Beijing Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League on Friday, was the first since the event was launched in 2002, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported. The debates were scheduled to commence on Saturday.
The move comes amid a nationwide crackdown on dissidents calling for a "Jasmine Revolution" and political liberalization in China.
Sixteen universities, including top institutions of learning like Peking University, Renmin University of China and Tianjin University, were to take part in the debates, the SCMP said. Beijing's keen sensitivity to the political threat of mass mobilization is believed to have been the principal reason behind the decision to cancel the event.
Wen Yunchao (溫雲超), a -Guangzhou-based blogger better known as Beifeng (北風, or "North Wind"), told the paper that the timing of the event, the nature of its participants and the topics for debate were very sensitive in the eyes of the authorities.

"But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your soothsayers or your sorcerers who speak to you, saying, 'You will not serve the king of Babylon.' "For they prophesy a lie to you in order to remove you far from your land; and I will drive you out and you will perish. "But the nation which will bring its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will let remain on its land," declares the LORD, "and they will till it and dwell in it."'"

Then in the evening I dug through the wall with my hands; I went out in the dark and carried the baggage on my shoulder in their sight. In the morning the word of the LORD came to me, saying, "Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?'

Thus says the LORD, "Go and buy a potter's earthenware jar, and take some of the elders of the people and some of the senior priests.

"I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their life; and I will give over their carcasses as food for the birds of the sky and the beasts of the earth. "I will also make this city a desolation and an object of hissing; everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its disasters. "I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they will eat one another's flesh in the siege and in the distress with which their enemies and those who seek their life will distress them."'

Instruction » The linen sash
Thus the LORD said to me, "Go and buy yourself a linen waistband and put it around your waist, but do not put it in water." So I bought the waistband in accordance with the word of the LORD and put it around my waist. Then the word of the LORD came to me a second time, saying, read more.
"Take the waistband that you have bought, which is around your waist, and arise, go to the Euphrates and hide it there in a crevice of the rock." So I went and hid it by the Euphrates, as the LORD had commanded me. After many days the LORD said to me, "Arise, go to the Euphrates and take from there the waistband which I commanded you to hide there." Then I went to the Euphrates and dug, and I took the waistband from the place where I had hidden it; and lo, the waistband was ruined, it was totally worthless. Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, "Thus says the LORD, 'Just so will I destroy the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem. 'This wicked people, who refuse to listen to My words, who walk in the stubbornness of their hearts and have gone after other gods to serve them and to bow down to them, let them be just like this waistband which is totally worthless. 'For as the waistband clings to the waist of a man, so I made the whole household of Israel and the whole household of Judah cling to Me,' declares the LORD, 'that they might be for Me a people, for renown, for praise and for glory; but they did not listen.'

Put in it the pieces, Every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder; Fill it with choice bones. "Take the choicest of the flock, And also pile wood under the pot. Make it boil vigorously. Also seethe its bones in it." 'Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Woe to the bloody city, To the pot in which there is rust And whose rust has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece, Without making a choice. "For her blood is in her midst; She placed it on the bare rock; She did not pour it on the ground To cover it with dust. "That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on the bare rock, That it may not be covered." 'Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great. "Heap on the wood, kindle the fire, Boil the flesh well And mix in the spices, And let the bones be burned. "Then set it empty on its coals So that it may be hot And its bronze may glow And its filthiness may be melted in it, Its rust consumed. "She has wearied Me with toil, Yet her great rust has not gone from her; Let her rust be in the fire! "In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I would have cleansed you, Yet you are not clean, You will not be cleansed from your filthiness again Until I have spent My wrath on you.

"You shall eat it as a barley cake, having baked it in their sight over human dung." Then the LORD said, "Thus will the sons of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations where I will banish them." But I said, "Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I have never been defiled; for from my youth until now I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has any unclean meat ever entered my mouth." Then He said to me, "See, I will give you cow's dung in place of human dung over which you will prepare your bread." Moreover, He said to me, "Son of man, behold, I am going to break the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety, and drink water by measure and in horror, because bread and water will be scarce; and they will be appalled with one another and waste away in their iniquity.

Whether you're planning a birthday party or wedding, Paperless Post's online stationary will make you think twice before shelling out hundreds or even thousands of dollars to print paper invitations. Their e-cards are incredibly well designed and really do look and feel like digital versions of invitations you'd get printed in a high-end stationary store. You can customize the paper weight, font colors, envelope liners and even choose between typefaces that look like letter-pressed or engraved calligraphy – all for a fraction of the price of traditional paper printing.
How do they do it? According to Paperless Post co-founder James Hirschfeld, the New York City-based startup has a seven person design team led by a talented creative director who has previously worked for Conde Nast magazines and Bergdorf Goodman. The designers use a variety of techniques to create the templates, ranging from hand-drawing to collage, and Hirschfeld admits that their office "doesn't look like the most startup's" with drafts of artwork all over the place and computer engineers sharing space with artists. But it's this "mix of engineers and artists," as Hirschfeld puts it, that makes the startup so dynamic.
Hirschfeld co-founded the company with his sister Alexa while he was still an undergraduate at Harvard in 2008. They worked in stealth mode while they were developing the initial product. James didn't even tell his college roommates what he was working on, and Alexa kept it a secret from her boss at the time – Katie Couric. The original vision was to "give users the tools to make a piece of online communication that looked more special than an email," James says, and even though many of their advisors warned them against it, Paperless Post made users pay from the beginning. "Coming to our pricing model was a huge part of defining who we were and figuring out what our brand was," James says. Currently, to send a custom card you pay using "coins," a virtual currency where $5.00 gets you 25 "coins." According to a recent article about Paperless Post in the Wall Street Journal, the average amount spent on a custom e-card or invitation last November was 19 cents, and people are willing to pay the price. From September through November last year, five million cards and invitations were sent through Paperless Post, up 70% from the same period in 2010.
Why are people willing to pay? According to James it's because their product is still an amazing alternative to print with customers getting "all of the design, all of the customization, and the personal feeling but you wouldn't have to go and spend $6.00 an invitation on a piece of paper which then gets thrown out." Plus, because their cards are ad-free, they can be used for more private, intimate invitations like weddings or anniversary parties, where ads on invites just seem inappropriate.
Check out the interview with James Hirschfeld below to learn more about Paperless Post and hear about some of their new products, including a series of free cards that are intended to be more casual.

Eyemouth Medical Practice has told patients and NHS Borders that it will end its weekly GP service at Cockburnspath in August this year.
Poor access to the surgery because it was previously a residential property, unreliable IT provision, a national shortage of GPs, and concern about lone working by GPs are the reasons given for that decision.
In a letter to patients, Kirsty Robinson says: "We wish to reassure patients that the medical practice will continue to provide you with the usual general medical services from our other two premises in Coldingham and the newly-refurbished Eyemouth Health Centre.
"Both locations are accessible via public transport, and home visits, where deemed clinically appropriate, will continue to be provided.
"Over recent years, we have established an arrangement with the local shop to hand out dispensed prescription medication to patients who have signed up for this service.
"It is our intention to continue this service on a weekly basis following the closure of the surgery."
NHS Borders medical director Cliff Sharp supported the GPs' decision and added: "I appreciate that it may cause some anxiety for patients, who have been invited to discuss any questions or concerns they have regarding this decision with us here at NHS Borders by Friday, July 21, at firstname.lastname@example.com"
Villagers knew their GP service was at risk, and in March this year, a representative of Cockburnspath and Cove Community Council told Scottish Borders Council's then Berwickshire area forum that poor broadband in the village was threatening its once-a-week, half-an-hour GP surgery. GPs struggled to input information into their system at Cockburnspath, the council was told.

Today is Memorial Day. I want to take the time to thank our current soldiers who are willing to risk their lives for my freedom, our veterans who served our country faithfully, and the families of those who gave their lives in service to this country. I am thankful to live in a country where I can worship freely, can homeschool my children, and can speak my mind. I know that those freedoms were not free; they came at a price. So thank you!

When my husband and I lived in San Diego, we ate Vietnamese food pretty much every week. There was a popular Pho restaurant we would frequent for their delicious (and cheap!) Pho noodle soups, vermicelli noodles and Summer rolls. When I ordered vermicelli noodles I always had it with grilled pork or pork meatballs. The meatballs were so flavorful and juicy, made with fish sauce, sugar and mint, a popular Vietnamese combination. Here is my version of Vietnamese meatballs paired with a sweet and tangy dipping sauce.
If you don't have fish sauce, you can use soy sauce instead. When the meatballs are done cooking, I like to add an extra squeeze of lime juice on top. Serve these meatballs with dipping sauce, steamed rice and fresh vegetables.
Baked Vietnamese Pork and Mint Meatballs
Vietnamese Meatballs Dipping Sauce
Preheat oven to 400° F. Lightly grease a sheet pan with oil and set aside.
In a bowl, mix all ingredients together thoroughly with your hands. Roll into about 30-40 meatballs and place on pan. Bake until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and not pink in the middle. While cooking, prepare the dipping sauce. In a mortar and pestle, crush garlic and red pepper into a paste. Place paste in a small serving bowl and stir together with agave nectar, fish sauce, lime juice and water. Serve meatballs with the Vietnamese dipping sauce, steamed rice and vegetables.

Love this! I must try this recipe. It will be gone in a few seconds if I make this for my family. Thanks for sharing, Barb!
Yum! I have a ton of ground turkey (hello, husband going crazy at Costco) so I'm going to try it with that for tomorrow night's dinner.
These look great! Seems like they'd be delicious with holy basil mixed in too!
I just made a version of this based on a recipe I saw in Family Fun Magazine. They are very yummy! Thank you for sharing your recipe for the dipping sauce.

It might seem like a very modest suggestion, but what if cities, counties, states, and other jurisdictions like the Board of Elections encouraged people to vote by biking or walking to their polling place. "I biked to vote" or "I walked to vote" stickers could be used as a substitute for the "I voted" stickers now available.
Why might this be important? Consider that: 28% of all car trips are less than a mile; that a "cold start" (where the car first is turned on during the day) uses far more gasoline for that < than a mile trip and generates far more pollutants than any other point in a car's journey; and that the reduction of the number of polling places generates more parking problems and more "cruising for parking" taking place, which itself consumes more gasoline.
It might be symbolic but short trips are precisely the area where biking and walking are more efficient and less costly and ultimately healthier for both people and the planet!

How strong is the scent on this product? I'm extremely fragrance sensitive and some cleaners leave behind fragrance that then blends with my makeup and transfers to my skin.

I used as directed but the product left an oily residue on my brushes, even after air-drying overnight. Then, even worse, I tried to use with my foundation and it left the same oily residue on my celebration foundation. Has anyone else had this problem??
Hi there! Thank you so much for reaching out! IT sounds like there is too much Brush Love on the brush. We recommend only using 1-2 sprays and then wiping IT on a paper towel or cloth. To deep clean the brush, we suggest using warm water and baby shampoo and your brush should be good as new. We hope this helps! XOXO Clark

Ah, flourless chocolate cake. In all honesty, it is in all probability one of the best muffins I've made in a long time, actually, but I just smiled and thanked them. At first i assumed the cream cheese style was too sturdy (I used Philadelphia Cream Cheese) but after whipping the frosting thoroughly, placing it on the cake and refrigerating the cake in a single day, it tasted phenomenal.
In mixing bowl, cream collectively Butter, Cocoa, Powdered Sugar, and Cream till mild and fluffy. Nonetheless, I by no means use oil in my truffles and if you're used to creaming butter and sugar on your cake, you're going to be used to a thicker cake batter. This fudgy chocolate cake took many MANY batches to good the precise balance of flour, oil, cocoa powder and baking powder.
In a big mixing bowl, cream collectively the butter and sugar until it's mild and fluffy, about 5 minutes, scraping down the perimeters sometimes to ensure all of the elements are being evenly creamed together. Butter and flour two 9-inch cake pans. In the pictures above, an additional darkish cocoa powder was used within the frosting.
So that commentary was def spot on. It was also the very best chocolate cake any of us have ever had, and we have had a whole lot of chocolate cake (together with gourmet cakes!) so that's saying quite a bit. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
I dwell in Australia and I'm never positive of oven conversions and my cakes all the time appear to rise only within the middle. In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; add to creamed combination alternately with bitter cream, beating nicely after every addition.

We love infographics. They are becoming more and more the easiest way to visualize information over the Internet lately. (by the way we suggest this great blog about data visualization).
We found this regarding the "History of Printing" particularly interesting since this is something we care a lot.
Kudos to the blog entry of Visual Loop, the team that generated the infographic.
In times where the digital seems unstoppable in the path to dominate readers preferences, with all the tablets, e-readers and other gadgets, we thought that it would be proper to remember the indisputable importance of printing in the spreading of information, culture and knowledge. Hope you enjoy it, and feel free to share your thoughts!

We're happy to announce the release of v4.5 of openrouteservice, which exposes unique services for two of our core API's, routing and isochrones. Now you can restrict routes to avoid crossing borders and get instant population counts on isochrones.
QGIS 3 officially released
On 24th of February, the QGIS developers have officially released QGIS 3 (codename "Girona"). It is the third major version of the free and open source cross-platform GIS software. In this post, I want to tease you with the most important infos and installation instructions.
Donut Polygons in QGIS, ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro and geoJSONDonut Polygons were the nightmare in first GIS courses. At the very moment I can't remember why but the concept of an inner and an outer part makes total sense in the real world (house with a patio, lakes with islands, Rome with the Vatican City) yet the creation of those was never the covered in the basic "how to edit"-classes. So how can we create them with QGIS, ArcMap as well as ArcGIS Pro and geoJSON? In this tutorial I will cover this basic task.
Short Announcement: New OSM routing plugin for QGIS OSM ToolsTwo years ago I wrote the OSMroute plugin which enable the QGIS user to use the OpenRouteService API for geocoding of points, accessibility analysis as well as routing from A to B. Unfortunately the managing of a plugin/ open source tool is time-consuming/ hard. But fortunately Nils Rode lifted the plugin to a new level: OSM tools.
Vagrant: Setup and Share your Digital Geo-LabIn one of my last posts I described the installation of a git server to improve collaborative work in closed environments. But developing solutions can be a pain in the axxxx if you need deal with user/OS dependent issues all the time. So let me introduce you to Vagrant: Vagrant is an open-source software product for building and maintaining portable virtual development environments.
Short Announcement: QGIS 3.0 is on its wayQGIS 3.0 is the next big release in terms of features and tools. As it is stated in this e-mail chain we could expect this new major release in late 2017 and time is passing fast: retire 2.14 in June 2017 2.18 becomes LTR from June 2017 to 2018 3.0 feature freeze in July 2017 release 3.0 in Sept 2017 release 3.2 as next LTR in release 3.0 + 4 Months (eta June 2018) Yet this timeline is not strict and [was?] under discussion. We might expect a new candidate loaded with some cool and uncool features.
Geocoding in GIS: ArcGIS, QGIS, LeafletThe recent move from the Mongolian Post to use W3W as their new address system shed a new light on the question: Where are addresses located and how to get the correct position of an address in your GIS. In this article I would like to show different possibilities in QGIS, ArcGIS and Leaflet. This post references also mappinggis.
PostgreSQL and PostGIS: A brief introductionYou probably seen this already (maybe on your very own PC as well): A folder with shape files. Well we're living in the 21st century and I do have and use those folders still. After a talk of Sebastian Meier at Maptime Berlin I was convinced and started to work with a databases instead of folders. So let me show you how to install PostgreSQL along with PostGIS on Ubuntu and Windows, how to get data into it, import OSM data and how to connect it with QGIS/ArcGIS.
How to create mountain ranges in QGIS?
Last time we had the task to create mountain ranges polygons for the whole world. I prepared a small tutorial referred to that. Maybe you can find something interesting for you. It will show you a model on how to select defined regions, slicing raster, smoothing and also exporting desired features. Enjoy!
From Cloud to GIS: Getting Weather Data.
Introduction In this post we are going to look at how to get weather forecast data and display it as a layer in a desktop geographical information system (GIS). The tools that you need are: A desktop GIS. I am going to use QGIS (free software) but I have done this with ESRI ArcMap as well A spreadsheet application. I will be using MS Excel but I have also tried this with Softmaker Office and I am sure LibreOffice (free software) will work or indeed any other spreadsheet application The Natural Earth Quick Start data set. This is a collection…

Demonstrators clad in the symbolic orange colour of the protest movement filled Rabin Square, where successive speakers denounced the evacuation.
Opponents of the plan have stepped up their protests in recent days, vowing to sabotage the withdrawal operation.
Jewish settlers are due to be removed from Gaza and part of the West Bank.
Protesters waving flags and banners streamed into the square in what is likely to be the last such mass show of resolve against the plan before the withdrawal gets under way.
Giant posters proclaimed "Gush Katif, I swear fidelity" and "Samaria, I swear fidelity" - references to a doomed settlement bloc and the biblical Hebrew name for the northern West Bank.
"Nothing is over. We must go to the south, on the roads. God will hear us," Yigal Kamineski, rabbi of Gush Katif, told the crowd.
Leaflets were distributed, telling supporters of the settler movement where to go as the pullout begins, to try to block the roads into Gaza and disrupt the process.
The square where the rally was held is the place where former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was shot dead in 1995 by a right-wing Jewish gunman opposed to the peace accords with the Palestinians.
The demonstration comes a day after tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews held a mass prayer gathering at the Western Wall in Jerusalem - Judaism's holiest site - against the impending pull-out.
The withdrawal of settlers from the Gaza Strip is due to get under way on Wednesday next week, with a further withdrawal from four settlements in the West Bank soon afterwards.

Subscribe To Flixster Lets Comic-Con Attendees Tweet Their Way To Free UltraViolet Movies Updates
I've already subscribed
One of the best parts of Comic-Con is the swag. Simply by walking across the mammoth dealer's floor -- a task that can take upwards of half an hour if the crowd's at its thickest -- will have people shoving freebies of every sort at you. Comics. Posters. T-shirts. Well, the folks at Flixster are taking it up a notch this year by giving away free digital copies of movies such as Mars Attacks!, Mortal Kombat, and Austin Powers via Warner Bros.' digital UltraViolet service. All you have to do to get them is tweet.
Here's how it works: starting today and through Sunday, Comic-Con attendees can swing by the DC Entertainment booth (#1915) to see special hashtags displays. The hashtags will also be on posters inside the "Batcave" near the "Extra at Comic-Con" stage. Once you spot one of the hashtags, you can tweet it and you will then receive a direct message from @Flixster with instructions on how to download your movie. They'll be changing the hashtags out over the course of the con, so you can tweet different ones for different movies. Based on the press release it sounds like you can get copies of more than one of the movies, although they do include the proviso that quantities are limited. You'll also have to sign up for a Flixster and UltraViolet account if you don't already have them.
If you're at Con this week, you also might want to check out the free movie screenings is hosting, all airing at the "Extra at Comic-Con Stage." Here's the full screening schedule:
