	The Dutch approach to AIDS
		In this respect the Dutch, who pride themselves on their sensible and pragmatic approach, have fallen behind precisely where this pragmatism is concerned.
		In 1990 the Dutch government decided that when an individual has a medical check-up for a new job, an HIV test can only be requested if it is needed in order to evaluate his or her suitability for the specific position.
		The Dutch AIDS policy might be known as experimental abroad, but in its actual implementation, a central role is played by experience that has been acquired and applied throughout centuries of Dutch history.

	Radio Netherlands Worldwide - Independent thinking, independent voice - English - Classic Dutch dishes
		The image of Dutch food as being stodgy and fatty and bland is a myth, according to the owner of Restaurant Greetje in the heart of Amsterdam.
		Here's another modern twist for standard Dutch fare by Pepijn Schut: a cold and slightly spicy cherry soup with a delicious garnish of goat's cheese and sprat.
		The Dutch government imposes some of the tightest restrictions on the use of fertiliser in the world, which may explain why the Dutch strawberry tastes so good.

	Netherlands: Safety of Failed Asylum Seekers at Risk (Human Rights Watch, 13-2-2004)
		Notwithstanding these international standards, the Dutch Council of State (Raad van State) held in February 2002 that the rights embodied in the Convention on the Rights of the Child are not applicable to children whose parents have no right to remain in the Netherlands.
		We urge the Dutch government to ensure that in all procedures relating to the proposed deportations, the “best interest of the child” standard is given primary consideration in cases where children are subject to such returns.
		Dutch authorities have stated that the new deportation scheme is “safe and humane.” Human Rights Watch has serious concerns, however, that the proposals will put failed asylum seekers at risk, both in the Netherlands—in the form of evictions, cessation of social assistance, and detention, among other things—and potentially upon return, as noted above.

	Dutch Government and Politics
		The Dutch monarchy has no real political power, so these sorts of figurehead duties are about all she has to do.
		The royal family are treated as a leading symbol of the Dutch nation and most museums on Dutch history or nationalism will often devote sizable exhibits to their antics.
		Balkenende is considered pretty right-wing by Dutch standards and since being elected in 2002 he's made a fair share of controversial decisions, such as slashing the budget of social programs and sending Dutch troops to Iraq.

	The Dutch Connection
		Dutch turret clocks are documented as early as 1367 in Maastricht in the most southern province of Limburg, right at the border of both modern day Belgium and Germany.
		The oldest surviving turret clocks on Dutch soil probably are the clock in the Lanscroon in Maastricht (dated approximately 1400) and the church clock, dated approximately 1420, of the small village of Winkel in the North of Holland.
		He comments that the Dutch claim this type of clock to have sprung from an English origin, while the English claim it to be from a Dutch one.

		To the best of my knowledge there are no dutch building standards regarding stairs as we have back home, and think this accounts for the tremendous variety of steps we encounter in all shapes and sizes and at all levels of difficulty...
		Every dutch school child learns that shoving the i and the j together makes a single letter that is perfectly acceptable in dutch writing even though the "j" makes no phonetic contribution whatsoever.

		All Dutch Homes are covered by a standard one year limited warranty covering structural workmanship, factory-installed plumbing, heating, electrical systems, and appliances which also may be covered by separate appliance manufacturer warranties.
		Manufactured homes are built to a high set of standards, unlike site-built homes, regulated by the U.S. Government under a national building and safety code administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and urban Development.
		Uniformity and consistency of the quality of manufactured homes are often superior to site-built homes because the government inspections take place in the factory, during each phase of construction, and follow behind the manufacturer's own in-plant inspection and quality assurance teams.

		In 1999, the United States EPA replaced the Pollution Standards Index (PSI) with the Air Quality Index (AQI) to incorporate new PM2.5 and Ozone standards.
		Passage of the Noise Control Act established mechanisms of setting emission standards for virtually every source of noise including motor vehicles, aircraft, certain types of HVAC equipment and major appliances.
		In the United Kingdom it took until the 1840s to bring onto the statute books legislation to control water pollution which was extended to all rivers and coastal water by 1961.

	The Development of International Standards on Auditing
		The benefits for the use of common global accounting standards by preparers of financial statements and common auditing standards by auditors of those statements have been debated for a number of years.
		The ultimate acceptance by users of financial statements for both the international standards on auditing and the international accounting standards will largely be attributable to the proper application of these standards by accountants and auditors.
		While the basic audit standards include requirements with respect to accruals and disclosures of matters affecting financial statements, the new IAPS will discuss the auditor considerations when applying the basic audit standards to environmental matters.

	Canada can learn from Dutch hospital standards: experts
		Dutch hospitals are winning the fight against antibiotic-resistant infections, thanks to strict patient isolation policies and a "seek-and-destroy" approach to infection control that some experts say should be imported to Canada.
		A CBC News investigation this week suggested a lack of infection control resources and regulations to enforce cleanliness standards has contributed to the spread of "superbugs" that could be killing as many as 8,000 Canadians a year.
		All foreign patients who have been treated at hospitals outside the Netherlands are isolated in private rooms at Dutch hospitals until they can be tested and shown to be free of infections such as MRSA and VRE.

	Dutch builders put a designer touch on suburbs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The Netherlands, a country that has set the international design standard for everything from glassware to corporate headquarters, made its first comprehensive attempts eight years ago to grapple with suburban sprawl.
		It is "remarkable even by Dutch standards," said Aaron Betsky, director of the Netherlands Architecture Institute, which awarded the units designed by MVRDV its NAI Prize in December 2002 as the best project that year by Dutch architects under the age of 40.
		The irony is that the Vinex program represents an effort by the Dutch to make their suburbs conform more closely to the United States'.

	Amended Dutch immigration regulations explained, Dutch News, The Netherlands, Holland, Expatica
		This means that certain foreign nationals wishing to settle in the Netherlands for a prolonged period, and who require an authorisation for a temporary residence permit (MVV visa), will have to take an examination abroad as an extra requirement for their MVV visa to be granted.
		This applies to foreign nationals who wish to form a family with a Dutch national or who want to be reunited with family members already living in the Netherlands.
		Although this doesn't appear to be a relaxation of the Dutch immigration regulations, it should be noted that the civic integration examination abroad does not apply to many expats and their families.

	Dutch bantam Poultry breeding - Robert Stephenson aka Rupert the Fish
		The Dutch Bantam originated in Holland, and first appeared in Britain in the late 1960s, and has since gone from strength to strength.
		Dutch bantams are popular both as exhibition birds and pets, with their upright and jaunty appearance and active nature making them very appealing.
		Dutch reproduce very well, and although the females will sit their own eggs and in my opinion, make very good mothers, most breeders incubate as the breed lays mostly in the late-spring and summer months.

		Terrorism, the rise of radical Islam and the challenge of integration, notably in relation to nearly 1m Dutch Muslims resident in a country of 16m people, have pushed the limits of tolerance and led to the adoption of harsher, conservative policies.
		He has campaigned hard for what he calls Dutch "standards and values", warning the country faced a moral crisis.
		Born fifty years ago in the southern Dutch town of Kapelle, part of a Calvinist band dubbed the Bible belt, running diagonally across the Netherlands, Jan Peter Balkenende studied history and law at Amsterdam's Free University before joining a CDA research institute.

		In Doorson, the European Court approved the Dutch standards, holding that if the Dutch courts afford procedural protections meeting these standards in criminal cases involving anonymous witnesses, there is no violation of the right to a fair trial.
		The Court was satisfied that the Dutch courts had used sufficient care: the court of appeal stated that it had treated the statement 'with the necessary caution and circumspection'.
		The court cannot hold in abstract that evidence given by a witness in open court and on oath should always be relied on in preference to other statements made by the same witness in the course of criminal proceedings, not even when the two are in conflict.

		A Dutch espresso usually has a very pale, beige crema that disappears as soon as you dip your little spoon in the coffee, instead of the thick dark crema that it should have.
		First reason is that to save money, your typical Dutch baristas grind their beans very coarse, so they're able to use less coffee to fill the filter.
		Apparently it's a common practice in some Dutch bars and restaurants (don't know how common) to RECYCLE the burnt coffee residue of their machine (basically what's left in the filter after you made the coffee).

		Dek said the levees in New Orleans had lower standards than Dutch law mandates and were built to withstand the kind of storm that could be expected once every 100 years.
		The Dutch response to 1953 floods was to build a new system of outer sea barriers -- massive structures stretching for miles.

	Fur Free Alliance Information About Use of Fur Bearing Animals for Fur
		The makers of this website (the Dutch Fur Institute and Dutch Fur Breeders Association) attempted to sidestep the complaint by claiming that this site was not intended to encourage the sale of fur, but was instead aimed at people who had already made the choice to wear it.
		The RCC disagreed stating that 'the statement in question is an expression of advertising according to article 1 of the Dutch Advertising Code given that it not only attempts to remove possible objections to wearing fur, but also extols the virtues of fur'.
		Bont voor Dieren is delighted with the Advertising Standards Authorities ruling and hope that the fur industry will take heed of the RCC's recommendations to never advertise fur in such a fashion again.
