  • Planning the Horticultural Sector Managing Greenhouse Sprawl in the Netherlands
    Planning the Horticultural Sector Managing Greenhouse Sprawl in the Netherlands Korthals Altes, W.K., Van Rij, E. (2013) Planning the horticultural sector: Managing greenhouse sprawl in the Netherlands, Land Use Policy, 31, 486-497 Abstract Greenhouses are a typical example of peri-urban land-use, a phenomenon that many planning systems find difficult to address as it mixes agricultural identity with urban appearance. Despite its urban appearance, greenhouse development often manages to evade urban containment policies. But a ban on greenhouse development might well result in under-utilisation of the economic value of the sector and its potential for sustainability. Specific knowledge of the urban and rural character of greenhouses is essential for the implementation of planning strategies. This paper analyses Dutch planning policies for greenhouses. It concludes with a discussion of how insights from greenhouse planning can be applied in other contexts involving peri-urban areas. Keywords: greenhouses; horticulture; land-use planning; the Netherlands; peri-urban land-use 1 Introduction The important role played by the urban-rural dichotomy in planning practice is a complicating factor in planning strategies for peri-urban areas, often conceptualised as border areas (the rural-urban fringe) or as an intermediate zone between city and countryside (the rural-urban transition zone) (Simon, 2008). However, “[t]he rural-urban fringe has a special, and not simply a transitional, land-use pattern that distinguishes it from more distant countryside and more urbanised space.” (Gallent and Shaw, 2007, 621) Planning policies tend to overlook this specific peri-environment, focusing rather on the black-and-white difference between urban and rural while disregarding developments in the shadow of cities (Hornis and Van Eck, 2008).

  • The Hague University of Applied Sciences Netherlands Partnership
    The Hague University of Applied Sciences Netherlands Partnership Southwestern has formally established an exchange program with The Hague University of Applied Sciences (THUAS). This program allows two Southwestern students to attend The Hague Law School for up to one year of study, with credits earned there counting toward completion of their J.D. degree from Southwestern. In 2014-15, 3 students from The Hague participated, studying at Southwestern for one semester each; no Southwestern student participated in the program. Grading system Each module or subject taught at The Hague is worth a number of ECTS. One ECTS credit represents 28 hours of full-time study. The Dutch grading scale consists of numbers running from 1 to 10, with 1 is the lowest grade, 10 is the highest and 5.5 the lowest passing grade. Accessibility of Facilities for People with Disabilities Over recent years much effort has been made to improve accessibility: access to trams and buses has been improved, ramps are now present on roads. However, in older cities, such as the capital Amsterdam, access for people using a wheelchair is still complicated. Most museums, government buildings and train facilities have been modified. For detailed information on accessibility for individuals with disabilities, please visit http://southholland.angloinfo.com/information/healthcare/people-with- disabilities/ Cancellation Policy Southwestern reserves the right to change or cancel the Semester Exchange Program at The Hague University at any time prior to the application deadlines for the program, or at any time due to a U.S. State Department Travel Warning or Alert. Cancellation of the program will occur only if necessary for reasons beyond Southwestern's control.

  • The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster
    The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster Few experiences satisfy the person who savors food and drink more than a journey to the source, the place where a favorite wine, cheese, or fruit is produced. The encounter imparts a knowledge of terrain and an appreciation of techniques used to make the prized food or drink. No book can teach this experience; no number of trips to the local delicatessen or bottle shop can equal it. For the appreciator of cheese, Dutch cheese is one of the gustatory glories of the Netherlands. The place to start is a good cheese store in Amsterdam. Beyond Amsterdam, you can visit the cheese markets at Alkmaar and at Gouda. You can also visit a cheese-making farm, Clara Maria, near Amsterdam. Details can be easily arranged by the Netherlands Board of Tourism office, www.holland.com. Cheese Shops in Amsterdam Cheese shops in Amsterdam, such as Abraham Kef’s, 192 Marninxstraat, are the places to make your first encounter with Dutch cheeses. At Kef’s you can make a tasting ceremony of cheese and wine. First, try a slice of Gouda, which is 60 percent of all the cheese produced in the Netherlands. Half of this Gouda is exported, making the Dutch one of the world’s largest exporters of cheese. Ask for a piece of Young Gouda, about three months old, which is imported to the U.S. labeled Young or Mild Gouda. Most Goudas are whole milk cheeses with a fat content of 48 percent. The Young Gouda has a creamy, buttery taste.

  • CHRISTIAEN COEVERSHOFF (Groningen 1595– the Hague 1659)
    CHRISTIAEN COEVERSHOFF (Groningen 1595– The Hague 1659) “Elegant Portrait of a Young Boy with Amulet” oil on panel 97.7 x 74.7cm Signed Work and Dated Work with Inscription “Aetatis sua jen fen ha anno 1633” For the month of November, the Soraya Cartategui Gallery is pleased to present you this very special and delicate portrait by the enigmatic Dutch painter Christiaen Coevershoff. The artist was born in Groningen in 1595 and died in The Hague at the age of sixty-four. Coevershoff specialized in portraiture and Christian religious representations and was most active in the cities of Amsterdam, Enkhuizen, and The Hague. Documentation of the time show that Christiaen Coevershoff was married to Janneke Seghers in Amsterdam in 1617. After having children in 1619 and 1621, the family disappeared from Amsterdam. A notarial act of 1639 shows that Coevershoff was then living in the city of Enkhuizen, where he produced some signed portraits. Further documentation indicates that Coevershoff was remarried in The Hague, but under the alias of Cornelis Jansz van Groningen and without indication of his previous marriage. It is likely that he took an assumed name to avoid paying the maternal portion to his daughter. Furthermore, despite his rather tenuous financial condition, Coevershof appropriated the title of Joncheer (a Dutch honorific of nobility) and changed his age. He second wife was Catharina Hellemans, daughter of the goldsmith and jeweler Cornelis Hellemans. In 1656, Couvershoff was one of the founding members of the Confrerie Pictura in The Hague. He died between January 28 and August 26 in 1659 at approximately 63 years old.

  • Lepidoptera Van Goeree-Overflakkee
    ENTOMOLOGISCHE BERICHTEN, DEEL 25, 1.VIII. 1965 153 Lepidoptera van Goeree-Overflakkee door K. J. HUISMAN Op de 97ste Winterverga¬ dering toonde ik de volgende Lepidoptera : 1. Porphyrinia parva Hüb¬ ner. Het eerste Nederlandse exemplaar, dat hierbij ook af- gebeeld wordt, werd 13 juni 1964 overdag op een zonnige dijkhelling te Melissant ge¬ vangen. Het dier werd opge¬ jaagd en zette zich even ver¬ A. VAN DER SlUIJS der weer neer. Klaarblijkelijk Porphyrinia parva Hb., $, Melissant 1964; X 3V,. waren de omstandigheden voor deze soort gunstig, want later in het jaar was de heer van Aartsen zo gelukkig nog een tweede exem¬ plaar te vangen. De nauw verwante Porphyrinia ostrina Hübner werd, zoals bekend is, in 1958 gevangen (zie J. H. Küchlein, Ent. Ber. 19 : 135, 1959). 2. Catoptria fulgidella Hübner. In 1964 in meerdere exemplaren te Ouddorp gevangen. 3. Heterogr aphis ohlitella Zeiler. De soort blijkt zowel te Melissant als te Oud¬ dorp geregeld voor te komen. 4. Phlyctaenia perlucidalis Hübner. Eén exemplaar te Ouddorp op 12.VI.1964. 5. Agdistis statuts Millière. Eén exemplaar te Melissant op 24.VIII.1960. Summary Five Lepidoptera are mentioned, which were taken on the island of Goeree- Overflakkee (South Holland prov.) in the course of 1964. Porphyrinia parva is new to the Dutch fauna. Melissant, Plein 7. Late Spilosoma lubricipeda L. (Lep., Arctiidae). De laatste datum van de Tienuursvlinder was tot nog toe 14..X. In 1962 zag de heer van Aartsen er één op 16.X, maar een record is ongetwijfeld 22.X.1963. Op die datum zag ik in Amsterdam een mooi gaaf exemplaar tegen een boomstam zitten, een meter of drie van de grond -— Lpk.
