Woldendorp () is a village in the Dutch province of Groningen. It is a part of the municipality of Eemsdelta, and lies about 31 km east of Groningen.

History 
The village was first mentioned in 1399 as Waldmonathorp, and means "village of the men from the woods". Woldendorp is a terp (artificial living hill) with a radial structure dating from the Early Middle Ages.

The nave of the Dutch Reformed church dates from the late-13th century. The church was extended before the 17th century, and heavily damaged by war in 1945. It was restored between 1949 and 1955.

Woldendorp was home to 350 people in 1840. In April 1945, Woldendorp was largely destroyed during the fighting in the Delfzijl pocket. The Reformed Church dated from 1949. It was decommissioned and sold in 2006 to be transformed into a music theatre. The building  could be made earthquake proof and was demolished in 2018.

Mathabiso Angeline Lepono (born 1942) is a Mosotho politician. She was a longtime minister of gender, youth, and sports under Lesotho's prime minister Pakalitha Mosisili.

Early life and education 
Mathabiso Angeline Lepono was born in 1942 in Thibella, a village in Lesotho's Maseru District.

Due to apartheid law, her mother, a domestic worker, was not able to stay with her. so she spent her childhood living with various relatives across South Africa, from Klerksdorp to Orlando. She faced abusive environments in some of her many foster homes.

She attended school at Blessed Martin de Porres in South Africa. After completing elementary school in 1957, she returned to Lesotho with her mother. Back in Lesotho, she got a job as an office assistant at a hospital. Her supervisors enrolled her at St. Stephen's High School in Mohale's Hoek, with her work supervisor and one of her teachers funding her education. Her first introduction to politics was in this period, when she joined the Basutoland African Congress as a youth member.

Though she was offered a scholarship to study abroad in 1966, she chose to remain in Lesotho and marry Ntate Lepono. She attempted to continue her education in Lesotho but was held back by financial difficulties.

Political career 
Lepono entered politics as a member of the Lesotho Congress for Democracy party, at one point leading its women's league.

She first joined the cabinet of longtime prime minister Pakalitha Mosisili in 1999, appointed as minister of environment, gender, and youth affairs. In 2002 she asked to be shifted away from the environment profile, becoming minister of gender, youth, and sports.

While serving as gender minister, she oversaw passage of the Legal Capacity of Married Persons Act of 2006, which removed men's marital power over their wives and gave married women more rights, as well as the 2003 Sexual Offences Act, which recognized marital rape as a crime, among other provisions.

By 2011, Lepono was one of seven women ministers in the cabinet, alongside 'Mamphono Khaketla, Mannete Ramali, Maphoka Motoboli, Mphu Keneileo Ramatlapeng, Mpeo Mahase-Moiloa, and Pontso Suzan Matumelo Sekatle.

In early 2012, she left the party alongside Mosisili to form the Democratic Congress. She then chose not to stand in the 2012 Lesotho general election, retiring from political office that year.

For over a decade, until her retirement in 2012, she was an elected member of Lesotho's National Assembly, representing Mafeteng District's Likhoele constituency.

As a politician, Lepono is known for both her forceful oratory and her emotional response to political conflict. She has remained involved in Democratic Congress politics since her departure from office.

Gaspar Peeter Verbruggen the Elder (Antwerp, 1635 – Antwerp, 16 April 1681) was a Flemish painter of flowers and garland paintings.

Life
Gaspar Peeter Verbruggen the Elder was baptized in the St. James' Church in Antwerp on 8 September 1635.  His father, also called Gaspar or Kasper, was a gardener who owned a house and a large garden where he grew herbs and flowers.  This may explain the young Gaspar's interest in flower painting.  Gaspar was registered at the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as a pupil of the painter Cornelis Mahu in the guild year 1644–45.  Five years later he was registered as a master of the Guild.

He married Catharina van Zeverdonck on 17 February 1658 with whom he had 11 children.  After the death of his wife on 24 August 1674 he married Sara Catharina Raeps on 13 June 1697. At the time of his death on 16 April 1681 there were still six minor children alive: Anna Catharina, Marie Isabella, Gaspar Peeter, Maria Magdalena, Petronella and (from the second marriage) Balthasar Hyacint.  Gaspar and Balthasar Hyacint became still life painters.  He was a successful artist as demonstrated by the fact that his estate included six houses and valuable household effects.

His pupils were his oldest son Gaspar Peeter, Gillis Vinck the younger, Joris Carpentero, Norbertus Beeckmans, Norbertus Martini and Jacobus Seldenslach.

Work
Gaspar Peeter Verbruggen the Elder was known for his flower still lifes and garland paintings.  His flower still lifes date from 1654 to 1680.

An important portion of Verbruggen's output falls into the category of 'garland paintings'. Garland paintings are a type of still life invented in early 17th century Antwerp by Jan Brueghel the Elder and subsequently practised by leading Flemish still life painters, and in particular Daniel Seghers.  Paintings in this genre typically show a flower or, less frequently, fruit garland around a devotional image or portrait.  In the later development of the genre, the devotional image is replaced by other subjects such as portraits, mythological subjects and allegorical scenes.

Garland paintings were usually collaborations between a still life and a figure painter.  Verbruggen's collaborators on his garland paintings have not been identified but it is believed they included Peter Ykens and Jacobus Ferdinandus Saey.  His collaborators painted the figure or figures inside the cartouche while Verbruggen painted the flower garland.

The Deutsche Journalistenschule e.V. (), the German School of Journalism, is a journalism school in Germany. At the time of its establishment, it was the country's first German journalism school. Today, Deutsche Journalistenschule is considered one of the best schools for journalism in Germany, along with the Henri-Nannen-Schule in Hamburg.

History
It was founded in 1949 by Werner Friedmann, co-editor of Süddeutsche Zeitung. He modeled the school after the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, which he saw while visiting the United States of America. The original name of the school, Werner Friedmann Institute, was later changed into Deutsche Journalistenschule e.V. (DJS), which means German School of Journalism.

For the following decades, DJS was the only professional school for journalism in West-Germany. Its students are taught by professional journalists of prominent German media outlets like Der Spiegel, Süddeutsche Zeitung or ARD. Only 45 students are accepted every year. The curriculum consists of classes in writing, research, TV-producing and others. In her speech on the school's 60th anniversary, Chancellor Angela Merkel called the DJS "a good piece of the success story of the Bundesrepublik Deutschland". Many editors-in-chief of renowned German newspapers and magazines were once students of the DJS.

In May 2012, the school moved from the former location in the heart of the city centre (Altheimer Eck) to the east of Munich (Hultschiner Straße 8), sharing the address with the Süddeutsche Verlag, the publishing house of Süddeutsche Zeitung. The school is currently led by Henriette Loewisch.
