Wyatt, the black GSD, has a strange attraction towards Ouzo. Every time he sees him, he runs and begs Ouzo to play with him, the only way he knows, by slapping my dog with his paws :) Ouzo tries his best to ignore him, but I believe Wyatt's just not capable of reading subtle signals.
So last Saturday, when this was taken, Ouzo finally had enough of Wyatt and discovered he has teeth that he can show and growl at the young admirer. Unfortunately that didn't make too much of a difference either - maybe gave Wyatt a bit more respect for Ouzo, but he continued to seek his approval and share his affection.
Here he's sniffing (and not sure if not licking) Ouzo's mouth, while my dog just wishes the black dog would freaking go away at leave him alone to play with his frisbee :)

The General English programmes at all our summer language centres will include the following:
Project and cultural lessons. These are organised in weekly themes which include world cultures, the future, the media, fashion, lifestyles, music, the arts, family & friendships. These themed lessons build over the week towards the creation and completion of a real task; for example the production of newspaper and magazine articles, diaries, surveys, films, plays and sketches. Students take this work home to show their school teachers and parents and to remember their stay with us.
Excursion preperation lessons, where the teacher will use a variety of activities to learn about the places which students will visit as part of the weekly excursion programme.
Internet lessons, where students will work on-line to research language and materials which they will use in creating their projects.
'English in Action' students interact with the public and use everyday english in order to complete their final projects and present them to their peers and teachers.

Another reason to attend Italian language courses in Rome is the contact with the real language spoken in Italy. Traditional grammar books and online courses normally used at school explain you the grammar rules and the most important words of the vocabulary, but most of times terms used in the exercises are old and uncommon anymore.
Last Saturday, Mendix was invited to demonstrate the Mendix platform at Engineering World, an event organized by IT service organization, Sogeti. The theme of the day was “The next step in adulthood and productivity” - referring to the fast developments within the software engineering industry. Our head of R&D, Johan den Haan, was invited to give a presentation about our vision in regards to productivity and software engineering.
Johan’s session proved to be one of the most popular during the event. "Many visitors were amazed by the productivity one can achieve by using this platform. During his presentation, Johan elaborated on the use of DSL’s (Domain Specific Languages), model interpretation and ways to embed custom JAVA code into Mendix applications. The icing on the cake was a demo using our latest release; the long- anticipated version 2.5 of the Mendix platform.
Visitors were surprised with the ease of use and the speed in which Johan was able to build up an order entry system from scratch. His demo was a spot-on demonstration about how the Mendix platform contributes to a higher productivity and better communication between business and IT.

These lines are written
by an animal, an angel,
a stranger sitting in my chair,
by someone who already knows
how to live without trouble
among books, and pots and pans.....
Who is it who asks me to find
language for the sound
a sheep's hoof makes when it strikes
a stone? And who speaks
the words which are my food?
