Transcript:Nl: Het was een koude winterochtend in Amsterdam.En: It was a cold winter morning in Amsterdam.Nl: De straten lagen vol sneeuw, en een frisse wind blies door de grachten.En: The streets were covered in snow, and a fresh wind blew through the canals.Nl: Lars en Jasmijn stonden voor het imposante gebouw van het ziekenhuis.En: Lars and Jasmijn stood in front of the imposing building of the hospital.Nl: Binnen was het een vrolijke chaos van mensen, met een wachtruimte vol harten en rode en roze versieringen vanwege Valentijnsdag.En: Inside, it was a cheerful chaos of people, with a waiting room full of hearts and red and pink decorations for Valentine's Day.Nl: Het zag er helemaal niet uit zoals je van een ziekenhuis zou verwachten.En: It did not look at all like what you would expect from a hospital.Nl: "Kom op, Jasmijn," zei Lars, zijn ogen alert terwijl hij de afspraakpapieren nogmaals doorlas.En: "Come on, Jasmijn," said Lars, his eyes alert as he read through the appointment papers once more.Nl: "We moeten op tijd zijn voor onze check-up."En: "We need to be on time for our check-up."Nl: Jasmijn grinnikte en deed alsof ze de vele harten bewonderde die aan het plafond hingen.En: Jasmijn chuckled and pretended to admire the many hearts hanging from the ceiling.Nl: "Relax, Lars.En: "Relax, Lars.Nl: Het is maar een routinecontrole.En: It's just a routine check-up.Nl: Wat is het ergste dat kan gebeuren?"En: What's the worst that can happen?"Nl: De waarheid was dat Lars vurig hoopte dat het snel zou gaan, zodat hij tijdig met zijn verrassingsplannen voor Valentijnsdag verder kon gaan.En: The truth was that Lars fervently hoped it would go quickly, so he could promptly continue with his surprise plans for Valentine's Day.Nl: Hij had een romantisch diner geregeld in hun favoriete restaurant, en wilde niets laten verpesten.En: He had arranged a romantic dinner at their favorite restaurant and wanted nothing to spoil it.Nl: Ze meldden zich aan bij de balie, en tot hun verbazing werden ze vriendelijk begroet door een verpleegster die hun naar een gezellig ingerichte kamer leidde.En: They registered at the desk, and to their surprise, they were kindly greeted by a nurse who led them to a cozily decorated room.Nl: "Welkom bij onze nieuwe koppeltherapiesessie," zei de verpleegster met een brede glimlach.En: "Welcome to our new couple therapy session," said the nurse with a broad smile.Nl: "Neem plaats.En: "Take a seat.Nl: We beginnen zo!"En: We'll begin shortly!"Nl: Lars en Jasmijn keken elkaar verbijsterd aan.En: Lars and Jasmijn looked at each other bewildered.Nl: "Dit is een misverstand," mompelde Lars, zijn voorhoofd fronsend terwijl hij naar de verpleegster keek.En: "This is a misunderstanding," muttered Lars, frowning as he looked at the nurse.Nl: Maar voordat hij verder kon spreken, duwde Jasmijn zachtjes zijn been aan.En: But before he could speak further, Jasmijn gently nudged his leg.Nl: "Laten we het maar even aanzien," fluisterde ze met een ondeugende knipoog.En: "Let's just see what happens," she whispered with a mischievous wink.Nl: De sessie begon met absurde vragen over hun relatie.En: The session began with absurd questions about their relationship.Nl: Lars voelde zich ongemakkelijk en begon te zweten, terwijl Jasmijn het niet kon laten om uitbundig mee te doen.En: Lars felt uncomfortable and started to sweat, while Jasmijn couldn't help but participate enthusiastically.Nl: Toen de therapeut hen vroeg naar hun plannen voor Valentijnsdag, steeg de spanning bij Lars.En: When the therapist asked about their plans for Valentine's Day, the tension rose for Lars.Nl: Hij wilde niet dat Jasmijn zijn verrassingsplan ontdekte, maar de vragen waren steeds raardere vragen en Lars kon niet meer.En: He didn't want Jasmijn to discover his surprise plan, but the questions became increasingly bizarre, and Lars couldn't take it anymore.Nl: "Oké, ik geef het toe!"En: "Okay, I admit it!"Nl: riep Lars plotseling, zijn stem lichtelijk in paniek.En: Lars suddenly shouted, his voice slightly panicked.Nl: "Ik wilde een romantisch diner voor ons plannen als verrassing!"En: "I wanted to plan a romantic dinner for us as a surprise!"Nl: Jasmijn begon hardop te lachen.En: Jasmijn burst out laughing.Nl: "Dus dat was je geheim!En: "So that was your secret!Nl: Dat is zo lief van je, Lars."En: That's so sweet of you, Lars."Nl: Met een flinke portie humor en geduld wisten ze uiteindelijk de verwarring op te helderen.En: With a good dose of humor and patience, they eventually managed to clear up the confusion.Nl: De medische check-up vond eindelijk plaats, hoewel iets later dan verwacht.En: The medical check-up finally took place, although a bit later than expected.Nl: Maar Lars kon het waarderen hoe luchtig Jasmijn over alles bleef en hij leerde om wat losser te zijn.En: But Lars appreciated how easygoing Jasmijn remained about everything, and he learned to be a bit more relaxed.Nl: Nadat ze het ziekenhuis verlieten, glimlachte Jasmijn naar Lars.En: After they left the hospital, Jasmijn smiled at Lars.Nl: "Je doet zo veel moeite voor ons.En: "You go through so much trouble for us.Nl: Bedankt," zei ze, zijn hand stevig vasthoudend.En: Thank you," she said, holding his hand tightly.Nl: Lars glimlachte terug, opgelucht dat Jasmijn blij was en dat hun dag alsnog goed verliep.En: Lars smiled back, relieved that Jasmijn was happy and that their day still went well.Nl: Die avond genoten ze van het diner, exact zoals Lars in gedachten had, en het was nog beter dan hij zich had kunnen voorstellen.En: That evening they enjoyed the dinner, just as Lars had imagined, and it was even better than he could have envisioned.Nl: Het was een Valentijnsdag om nooit te vergeten, en zelfs Lars kon uiteindelijk lachen om het avontuur in het ziekenhuis.En: It was a Valentine's Day to remember, and even Lars could eventually laugh about the adventure at the hospital.

Afl. 126 | Om de drugsoverlast in de Amsterdamse binnenstad te verminderen, ligt er opnieuw een plan op tafel om toeristen uit coffeeshops te weren.

Onder minister van Homeland Security Kristi Noem verschuift de prioriteit van de kustwacht van het redden van mensen naar het deporteren van migranten. Binnen de Amerikaanse kustwacht groeit de onvrede over die koerswijziging. Volgens berichtgeving van NBC News zou Noem in een vroeg stadium een toestel hebben laten terugroepen uit een zoekactie naar een vermiste kustwachter, om een deportatievlucht niet te vertragen. De minister van Binnenlandse Veiligheid bouwt tegelijk aan haar eigen comfort met luxe toestellen en woont ze in de officiële ambtswoning van de kustwacht. Ook haar adviseur Corey Lewandowski is daar een graag geziene gast. Noem en Lewandowski zouden in een affaire verwikkeld zijn. De Trump-regering probeert een gedeeltelijke shutdown van Homeland Security te managen terwijl ICE, dankzij royale budgetten, nauwelijks pijn voelt. Luchthavenbeveiligers dreigen opnieuw onbetaald door te moeten werken, met kans op lange rijen en personeelsverloop. Binnen Trumps team groeit de twijfel over Noems positie, maar Trump ziet voorlopig geen reden voor ontslag. Ook staat de burgerrechtenbeweging stil bij de dood van Jesse Jackson, die miljoenen Amerikanen met ‘I am somebody’ politieke stem gaf. Zijn erfenis werkt door in het huidige debat over macht, minderheden en de grenzen van politieke onschendbaarheid. De spanning tussen idealen van gelijkheid en de harde veiligheidsstaat wordt zo pijnlijk zichtbaar. Over de Amerika Podcast In de Amerika Podcast nemen Bernard Hammelburg en Jan Postma je mee naar het Amerika van nu: een land dat onder Donald Trump opnieuw in rap tempo verandert. Wat betekent zijn beleid voor Amerikanen in rode én blauwe staten, voor de democratie? Wat is er nog over van the American Dream? Wat verandert Trumps koers voor ons in Europa? Hier hoor je de verhalen van de Amerikanen zelf. We nemen je mee naar het land van adembenemende landschappen, countrymuziek uit de autoradio en diners langs de highway. Maar natuurlijk ook juist naar de mavericks die deze clichés doorbreken. De Amerika Podcast zoekt naar de ziel van Amerika. Buitenlandcommentator Bernard Hammelburg vanuit New York en Amsterdam, correspondent Jan Postma vanuit Washington DC of ergens in een van de vijftig staten. Die zoektocht doen we samen met jou, want de Amerika Podcast is niet compleet zonder de vragen van onze luisteraars. Elke donderdag in je podcastfeed!

Join Here: ⁠⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠⁠In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz explores the artist background of Tame Impala, the psychedelic rock/psych-pop project led by Australian multi-instrumentalist Kevin Parker. Since 2008, Parker has written, produced, and performed most material solo under the Tame Impala moniker.The sound evolution traces from garage-psych roots on Innerspeaker (2010), to polished pop-infused textures on Currents (2015), groove/pop hybridization on The Slow Rush (2020), and the latest genre blend of psychedelic, disco, house, and pop on Deadbeat, released October 17, 2025. Deadbeat debuted at #4 on Billboard 200, #4 on Official U.K. Albums Chart, and #2 on ARIA Chart.Tame Impala boasts numerous Grammys, ARIA, APRA Awards, and one BRIT Award, with massive streaming success—e.g., “The Less I Know the Better” exceeding 2.2B Spotify streams—yet waited nearly two decades for a first Hot 100 entry.Focus shifts to standout single “Dracula,” released September 26, 2025, as the third from Deadbeat. This third single delivers a bouncy, disco-leaning groove with a “party-until-dawn” narrative using vampire metaphors for nightlife embrace. Praised for its infectious groove, earworm chorus, and Halloween-adjacent energy, it drew mixed reviews (e.g., Medium 6.5/10) but strong community response in outlets like Atwood Magazine.“Dracula” marked Tame Impala's breakthrough: first Billboard Hot 100 entry debuting at #55 (October 2025), peaking at #30; #1 on Alternative Airplay (January 2026, returned #1 February 7 chart); #2 Adult Alternative Airplay; #23 Rock & Alternative Airplay. It ranked #3 in Triple J Hottest 100 (2025), amassed ~221M Spotify streams by February 2026, with debut week U.S. metrics of 6.5M streams, 1.7M radio impressions, and 1K digital sales. It peaked Top 40 on UK Singles Chart over 16 weeks.An early February 2026 remix featuring BLACKPINK's JENNIE added new vocal layers, verse content, and lyric nods to Parker, blending K-pop with psych-pop. Released post-Parker's JENNIE merch sighting at the February 1, 2026 Grammys—where Tame Impala won Best Dance/Electronic Recording for “End Of Summer” (second consecutive in category)—the remix boosted visibility, demographic reach, and chart momentum, sparking follow-up Hot 100 entries like “Loser” (#91) and “My Old Ways” (#56).Analytic Dreamz analyzes “Dracula” as a streaming-driven radio crossover, U.S. chart gateway, and cross-genre platform linking psych-pop and K-pop ecosystems, reinforcing Parker's hybrid legacy amid a 2026 European tour (April 4–May 13, covering major markets like Madrid, Paris, Berlin, London, Amsterdam, Stockholm, Dublin).Tune in for in-depth insights on Tame Impala's evolution, breakthrough success, and strategic significance in modern music.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Sophie Hyde's films have often explored identity, self-realisation, and the path to finding your place in this messy, mucked up world. 52 Tuesdays sees a child growing to understand the gender transition that one of her parents is going through, while Good Luck to You, Leo Grande sees Emma Thompson's 55-year-old Nancy reclaim her sexuality.In Jimpa, Sophie's finest and most mature film yet, we follow Aud Mason-Hyde's Frances, child to Olivia Colman's Hannah and Daniel Henshall's Harry. Frances is finding their place in the world as a nonbinary queer kid, eager to push out of the restrictive boundaries of Adelaide and engage with queer culture that they feel part of and as if they can grow within. A trip to Amsterdam to meet Hannah's father, Jim (John Lithgow), has Frances feeling that his proudly gay lifestyle and advocacy for gay rights would make for a suitable place for them to spend a gap year, growing, learning, and studying.In the following interview with Sophie and Aud, we talk about that kaleidoscopic nature of the film, what it's like to grow up with a parent like Sophie Hyde, and finally, what it's like to have a story captured on screen by the stunning cinematography of Matthew Chuang.the Curb is a completely independent and ad free website that lives on the support of listeners and readers just like you.

Percy Williams was so unknown that when he won gold in Amsterdam, there was a delay in the ceremony because no Canadian flag was on hand.

We welcome to the Warrior Community Anouk Pappers, Brand Anthropologist and Online Presence Architect. She has published over 15 books, bringing interviews from around the globe to life, and discovered an opportunity to shine light on leaders who were outside of the spotlight. She created a platform, Signitt, to focus on the needs of business and social leaders to define their personal brand, craft their narrative, and build their online presence. Anouk shares her playbook with us, giving us the tools and powerful stories that we will find value in and some might even resonate with our own experiences.  In 2002 Anouk started a storytelling expedition: Around the World in 80 Brands. The goal was to support brands and companies convey their message through storytelling. She traveled the world in search of brands with a purpose and people with a vision. Having started CoolBrands in Amsterdam, she later expanded to Dubai, São Paulo, and New York, working with companies such as PepsiCo, Apple, Google, Mercedes, Harley Davidson, and Unilever. She has interviewed over 900 CEOs, CMOs, and business leaders across the globe and published 15 books chronicling their stories.  In 2015, Anouk founded Signitt to focus on the needs of business and social leaders to define their personal brand, craft their narrative, and build their online presence. Drawing on her global experience and insights, Anouk has seen first-hand how clarity of brand and story can transform careers. She has dedicated much of her work to supporting leaders better position themselves for the future and “use Google as their wing(wo)man.”  A sought-after, engaging speaker, she shares practical insights and tactics to help individuals take control of their narrative and grow their visibility in a digital-first world.(3:23) Anouk shares her own story with our community, how she started working with entrepreneurs to give them a platform to share their own stories.  (6:22) What does the word branding mean to Anouk and the work she does?  (11:17) How has storytelling evolved, both professionally and personally, over the years?   (13:10) Anouk shares an experience in her own life, that was sparked her journey of curiosity and learning about other people, cultures and their experiences.  (15:50) Anouk shares how she sparks some of that same curiosity in the people that she works with.  (18:40) How does Anouk work with others to help them begin storytelling for themselves, sharing their own experiences.  (20:27) How is authentic storytelling holding up in our world, often addicted to optimization, AI and digital “noise”?  (24:21) What does Anouk notice, in her work, that helps people to accept and move through the transformational work that she does?  (30:06) What part of her story that Anouk rarely shares, but that has shaped her the most?  (32:17) What does Anouk want to make sure resonates and can be actionable for our WAW community?  (35:48) Anouk shares some steps on creating your own story.  (38:10) What is next for Anouk?  What mark does she want to leave on the world?Connect with Anouk Pappershttps://www.linkedin.com/in/anoukpappers/    Subscribe: Warriors At Work PodcastsWebsite: https://jeaniecoomber.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/986666321719033/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeanie_coomber/Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeanie_coomberLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeanie-coomber-90973b4/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbMZ2HyNNyPoeCSqKClBC_w

This week marks the second DSA and Platform Regulation conference in Amsterdam, where experts will convene to consider the Digital Services Act (DSA) two years after it entered full effect across the European Union. Over that period, the law has been tested by national elections, geopolitical tensions, high-profile enforcement actions, and the rapid rise of generative AI. It has become both a benchmark for platform accountability and a political lightning rod.Ahead of the conference, Tech Policy Press senior editor Ramsha Jahangir spoke with members of the DSA Observatory, which is organizing the conference, to take stock. What have these first years of enforcement clarified? Where does opacity remain? And what does it mean to conduct DSA research in today's political climate? Guests include:John Albert, associate researcher, DSA Observatory.Paddy Leerssen, postdoctoral researcher at the University of Amsterdam and part of the DSA Observatory.Magdelena Jozwiak, associate researcher at the DSA Observatory.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Toronto poet Guy Elston about his debut poetry collection, The Character Actor Convention (Gordon Hill Press/Porcupine's Quill, 2025).  A pumpkin writes a letter to his father. A sheep recalls a revolution, and love. Hydrogen pens a tell-all expos of Oxygen. The Stick Insect Orders His Tomb. Napoleon counts waves and cheats at cards. A sunflower seeks answers - why sun? A crow considers children in this cruel, spiky world. And allthe while, character actors gather for the endless convention... Guy Elston's debut poetry collection, The Character Actor Convention, is a curious smorgasbord of personas, new voices and (un)natural perspectives. Through impossible encounters and strange viewpoints an insistent, ever-shifting 'I' questions its relation to reality, and itself. Wist, wit, obsession and irony rise like tides, are forgotten, and start fresh. Authenticity is always just round the corner. The Character Actor Convention is not urgent, timely or topical. It's something else. Guy Elston was born and raised in Oxford, UK. After various jobs, journeys and other lifetimes he surfaced in Toronto in 2020. He has an MA in History from the University of Amsterdam. Since moving to Canada his poetry has been published by The Malahat Review, Canadian Literature, Event, The Literary Review of Canada, Vallum, The Antigonish Review and other journals. His chapbook Automatic Sleep Mode was published by Anstruther Press in 2023. His debut full-length collection, The Character Actor Convention, is forthcoming from The Porcupine's Quill in 2025. Guy lives in Toronto and can be found at poetry events. He's a member of the Meet the Presses collective and is a first reader for Untethered magazine. Learn more about your ad choices.

We voerden dit gesprek op een wel heel bijzondere plek: in Museum Gouda, te midden van een tentoonstelling die is ingericht door misschien wel de grootste schrijver van Nederland: Arnon Grunberg. Een tentoonstelling waarin ‘geloof' centraal staat - hoe Ongelooflijke wil je het hebben? En Arnon zou Arnon niet zijn als hij dit thema niet verbindt aan grote, urgente onderwerpen. Want, zo stelt hij: ‘Geloven is nadenken over het offer.' Dat is actueel, want we leven in een tijd waarin offers worden gevraagd. Wat hebben we ervoor over om ons te verdedigen tegen Rusland? En mag dat ook financiële offers vragen - denk aan de bezuinigingen die de nieuwe regering wil doorvoeren? Arnon Grunberg schreef een exclusief essay (https://open.substack.com/pub/deongelooflijke/p/de-moeite-van-het-sterven-waard?r=6cjvm1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true) voor De Ongelooflijke, waarin hij de indringende vraag stelt: Wat gebeurt er met offers en zingeving als God steeds meer ontbreekt in onze samenleving? Een echte Grunberg, mogen we wel zeggen: scherpe observaties, mooie zinnen en gedachten die je aan het denken zetten. Je kunt het essay hier (https://open.substack.com/pub/deongelooflijke/p/de-moeite-van-het-sterven-waard?r=6cjvm1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true)lezen. Een foto van het beeldhouwwerk dat ter sprake kwam vind je hier (https://www.instagram.com/p/DUwZm3EiGbZ/?igsh=MnhibHBpcnE0N3o4). David Boogerd spreekt Arnon Grunberg uiteraard samen met vaste gast, theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht. We gaan weer live met De Ongelooflijke! Donderdagavond 26 maart zijn we live in Flint Theater in Amsersfoort. Te gast is journalist en antropoloog Joris Luyendijk. Kaarten zijn te boeken via eo.nl/ongelooflijke (https://meer.eo.nl/de-ongelooflijke-podcast).

Whether they're topping Beatport charts, playing alongside industry heavyweights, or crafting the next big anthem, these artists are proving that Elevated Academy is the launchpad for the next generation of dance music talent.

With roots in the Amsterdam underground and years spent building events, DJing internationally, and shaping dancefloors, his music is all about tension, swing, and forward momentum. Inside Elevated Academy, Pullsanti has been dialing in his production approach, translating years of instinct behind the decks into focused, club-ready tracks. This mix reflects that evolution. Groovy, driving, and built with intention for dancers who like it locked in and moving. Turn it up, lock it in. Pullsanti on Elevated Academy Radio. Here. We. Go.⚡️Like the Show?

In April 2022, two months after Russia invaded Ukraine, a man in his thirties called Victor Muller Ferreira flew into Amsterdam airport using a Brazilian passport. He was identified by the Dutch authorities as Russian national Sergey Vladimirovich Cherkasov and immediately sent back to Brazil, where investigations by both the FBI and the Brazilian police identified him as a Russian intelligence officer. He had been living in Brazil, undercover, for years, with a well-developed personal 'legend', or cover story, that included a passion for Forró, a popular Brazilian partner-dance. Cherkasov is currently serving a five year prison sentence in Brazil for identity fraud, and Russia demands his extradition.Leandro Prazeres of BBC News Brazil - who happens to be a big fan of Forró himself - and BBC Russian's Olga Ivshina unpack the story of this 'fake Brazilian' and explore the history and motivations of Russia's network of so-called 'illegals', or deep cover spies.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world. Produced by Laura Thomas, Caroline Ferguson and Hannah Dean. (Photo: Irena Taranyuk.)

onvergetelijke Valentijnsdag creëren op de ijsbaan.En: He wanted to create an unforgettable Valentine's Day on the ice rink.Nl: Er zouden schaatsen, warme chocolademelk en zelfs muziek zijn.En: There would be skates, hot chocolate, and even music.Nl: Zijn geheim?En: His secret?Nl: Hij hoopte dat Inge, die altijd sierlijk over het ijs glijdde, zou onder de indruk zijn.En: He hoped that Inge, who always glided gracefully over the ice, would be impressed.Nl: Maar er was een probleem.En: But there was a problem.Nl: De bevriezingsinstallatie begaf het.En: The freezing installation broke down.Nl: Het ijs begon te smelten, en het evenement dreigde in het water te vallen.En: The ice began to melt, and the event was in danger of failing.Nl: Bram zuchtte diep.En: Bram sighed deeply.Nl: Hoe kon hij dit oplossen?En: How could he fix this?Nl: Hij besloot hulp te vragen aan Inge.En: He decided to ask Inge for help.Nl: Ze zat op de rand van de ijsbaan en maakte haar schaatsen vast.En: She was sitting on the edge of the ice rink, fastening her skates.Nl: "Inge, ik heb een probleem," begon Bram aarzelend.En: "Inge, I have a problem," Bram began hesitantly.Nl: "Het systeem werkt niet meer.En: "The system isn't working anymore.Nl: Kun je me helpen een oplossing te vinden?"En: Can you help me find a solution?"Nl: Inge keek hem aan, haar ogen glinsterden van nieuwsgierigheid.En: Inge looked at him, her eyes glistening with curiosity.Nl: Samen bedachten ze een plan.En: Together they came up with a plan.Nl: Het was koud genoeg, dus ze zouden proberen het ijs op natuurlijke wijze opnieuw te bevriezen.En: It was cold enough, so they would try to refreeze the ice naturally.Nl: Met de hulp van enkele vrijwilligers verspreidden ze water over de baan en wachtten tot de ijzige wind zijn werk deed.En: With the help of a few volunteers, they spread water over the rink and waited for the icy wind to do its job.Nl: Langzaam maar zeker werd het ijs harder.En: Slowly but surely, the ice hardened.Nl: Bram en Inge werkten zij aan zij, lachten en praatten, terwijl de eerste sneeuwvlokken om hen heen dwarrelden.En: Bram and Inge worked side-by-side, laughing and talking, as the first snowflakes swirled around them.Nl: Het was zwaar werk, maar ze gaven niet op.En: It was hard work, but they didn't give up.Nl: En toen, eindelijk, was het ijs sterk genoeg.En: And then, finally, the ice was strong enough.Nl: Het evenement kon beginnen.En: The event could begin.Nl: Mensen kwamen in drommen naar de ijsbaan.En: People flocked to the ice rink.Nl: De muziek speelde, warme chocolademelk werd geserveerd, en de schaatsers gleden met vreugde over het ijs.En: The music played, hot chocolate was served, and the skaters glided joyfully over the ice.Nl: Bram stond aan de kant en keek naar Inge die over het ijs gleed, sierlijk en vol vertrouwen.En: Bram stood on the side and watched Inge glide over the ice, graceful and confident.Nl: Ze stopte naast hem, haar wangen rood van de kou en inspanning.En: She stopped next to him, her cheeks red from the cold and exertion.Nl: "Dankzij jou is dit allemaal gelukt, Bram," zei ze met een warme glimlach.En: "Thanks to you, all this succeeded, Bram," she said with a warm smile.Nl: Die avond, toen de sterren aan de hemel stonden en het feest in volle gang was, deelden Bram en Inge een bijzonder moment.En: That evening, as the stars stood in the sky and the party was in full swing, Bram and Inge shared a special moment.Nl: Hand in hand stonden ze in het midden van de baan, omringd door het gelach en het gejoel van de mensen.En: Hand in hand, they stood in the middle of the rink, surrounded by the laughter and cheers of the people.Nl: Bram besefte dat samenwerken de sleutel was tot succes.En: Bram realized that working together was the key to success.Nl: Hij had niet alleen een evenement georganiseerd, maar ook iemand gevonden die hem begreep.En: He had not only organized an event but also found someone who understood him.Nl: En Inge ontdekte dat ze meer wilde doen met haar liefde voor schaatsen; misschien anderen leren en coachen.En: And Inge discovered that she wanted to do more with her love for skating; perhaps teaching and coaching others.Nl: De vriendschap tussen Bram en Inge was gegroeid.En: The friendship between Bram and Inge had grown.Nl: Ze zagen nu de waarde in van elkaar helpen en de schoonheid van samenwerken.En: They now saw the value in helping each other and the beauty of working together.Nl: Terwijl de nacht vorderde, wisten ze dat deze Valentijnsdag ze blijvende herinneringen had gegeven.En: As the night wore on, they knew that this Valentine's Day had given them lasting memories.Nl: En zo eindigde het evenement aan de Amsterdamse gracht, onder de fonkelende sterren, met een belofte van nieuwe avonturen voor hen beiden.En: And so the event ended on the Amsterdamse gracht, under the twinkling stars, with a promise of new adventures for both of them.

Deze week een aflevering uit het Grote Man met de microfoon Archief. Twee jaar geleden woonden Chris, Paulien en Wiek een jaar in Sheffield. En dit was de aflevering van 9 februari 2024. Charles III is ziek. En dus moesten we het er even kort over hebben. Dat het Engelse koningshuis iets los laat over de gezondheid van de koning is heel speciaal. Al mag niemand verraden welke soort kanker hij heeft. Dat dan weer niet. Wiek had een optreden op school. Hij speelde een boom in het milieubewuste stuk 'The emerald crown'. Dat gaat over het amazonegebied en de bomenkap. En dan is er het bijzondere verhaal over 'de schaar'. Zo'n typische geschiedenis waarin het toeval, toch wel een terugkerend thema in Chris' werk, weer eens zijn opwachting maakt.

Liebe Lovies, zum diesjährigen Valentinstag haben wir eine besondere Zusatzfolge für euch aufgenommen – bei Spotify könnt ihr sie sogar als Videopodcast sehen! Diese Geschichte beginnt – wie sollte es anders sein – mit Herzklopfen. Rachels Herz pocht schneller, als das Flugzeug mit einem leichten Ruck auf dem Boden aufsetzt und die helle Stimme der Stewardess durch die Maschine schallt: „Welcome to Vienna!“ Rachel lächelt. Alles fühlt sich perfekt an. Sie ist 24, frisch von der Schauspielschule in New York, und hat gerade ihre erste Rolle in einem Theaterstück ergattert. Die nächsten sechs Wochen wird sie in gleich mehreren europäischen Städten auf der Bühne stehen. Doch Rachel will auf dieser Reise nicht nur arbeiten. Sie will ihren Hot Girl Summer: flirten, knutschen, tanzen, sich frei fühlen. Und das tut sie. Bis sie einem Mann begegnet, der alles durcheinanderbringt. In unserer Valentinstagsfolge erzählen wir Rachels Liebesgeschichte und sprechen über das Leben mit Anfang 20: eine Phase, in der alles möglich erscheint und in der man versucht seinen Platz in der Welt zu finden.

De reductio ad Hitlerum‑argumenten vliegen weer rond nu ICE de straten van Minneapolis onveilig maakt. Maar hoeveel is er eigenlijk waar van de fascisme‑beschuldigingen aan het adres van Donald Trump? Prof. dr. Frank van Vree, emeritus hoogleraar Geschiedenis van Oorlog, Conflict en Herinnering aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam, legt uit waarom Amerika geen fascistische staat is zoals nazi‑Duitsland of Mussolini‑Italië. Volgens hem opereerden de fascisten van de jaren twintig en dertig in een specifiek tijdsgewricht, onder totaal andere omstandigheden. Om de ultraconservatieve en nationalistische agenda van politici zoals Orbán, Wilders en Trump beter te kunnen duiden is het concept illiberalisme volgens de professor passender.

This episode of Cruise News examines a fascinating split-screen moment in the cruise industry, where major ports are moving in completely opposite directions. The Port of Los Angeles has selected Pacific Cruise Terminals to build a next-generation outer harbor terminal designed for the biggest ships afloat, complete with shore power and a waterfront destination experience. The port set records in 2025 with 241 cruise calls and 1.6 million passengers.Meanwhile, the Port of New Orleans continues its remarkable consistency, topping 1 million cruise passenger movements for the ninth consecutive year. The city's unique position as the only US home port supporting both ocean and river cruises gives it a distinctive edge.On the other side of the Atlantic, Amsterdam is weighing a dramatic proposal to ban ocean-going cruise ships entirely by 2035. City officials have calculated that eliminating ships is actually cheaper than relocating the terminal, while improving livability. The episode explores what this growing European pushback means for the future of city-center cruising.

What does it really take to move AI from experimentation into something enterprises can trust, scale, and rely on every day? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Rob Lay, CTO and Solutions Engineering Director for Cisco UK and Ireland, recorded in the run-up to Cisco Live EMEA in Amsterdam. As agentic AI dominates conference agendas on both sides of the Atlantic, this conversation steps away from model hype. It focuses on the less glamorous, but far more decisive layer underneath it all: infrastructure. Rob explains why the biggest constraint on scaling AI agents in production is no longer imagination or ambition, but the readiness of the environments those agents run on. We talk about how legacy technical debt, latency, fragmented networks, and disconnected security tools can quietly undermine AI investments long before leaders see any return. As organizations move out of pilot mode and into real execution, those cracks become impossible to ignore. A big part of the discussion centers on why AI changes the relationship between network, compute, and security teams. Traditional silos struggle to keep up as autonomous systems make decisions at machine speed. Rob shares how Cisco is approaching this shift through tighter integration across the stack, with security designed directly into the network rather than bolted on later. When AI agents act independently, routing everything through centralized chokepoints does not hold up. We also explore how operational complexity is evolving. Tool sprawl is already overwhelming many IT leaders, and agent sprawl is clearly coming next. Rob outlines Cisco's platform strategy, including how agent-driven operations, human oversight, and context-aware automation are shaping a new approach to day-to-day resilience. This leads into a wider conversation about digital resilience as a business issue, where visibility, assurance, and learning from incidents matter more than static continuity plans that only get tested once a year. For European leaders in particular, data sovereignty and control remain at the forefront. Rob explains how Cisco is responding with flexible deployment models, local data residency options, and air-gapped environments that support AI innovation without forcing customers into a single rigid operating model. We close by looking at where enterprises are actually seeing value today, where expectations are still running ahead of reality, and what leaders attending Cisco Live should really be listening to as announcements roll in. If you are responsible for infrastructure, security, or technology strategy in an AI-driven organization, this conversation offers a grounded view of what needs to be ready before agents can truly deliver on their promise. As AI-powered systems start to move faster than most roadmaps anticipated, are you confident the foundations underneath them are ready to keep up, and what would you change if you were starting that journey today?
