professor of energy technology Gerrit Brem still felt the itch to get involved again
He didn’t want to sit still and saw many opportunities in the collaboration between the Zwolle region and the University of Twente
he has acted as an advance outpost within that collaboration
Brem talks about his role: ‘There’s quite a lot happening in Zwolle – I believe the university can’t afford to be absent.’
he studied mechanical engineering at the HTS and now lives nearby in Hattem (‘I can finally cycle to work’)
He sees the potential of the region as similar to a hightech area like Twente
‘In terms of mentality and talent development
we hadn’t really sought each other out,’ says Brem
‘Actually in three areas: research, education and lifelong learning. There’s a lot of innovative activity in Zwolle, from AI to advanced manufacturing. Perron038 alone – the innovation centre for the manufacturing industry in the railway zone – involves more than twenty companies working on themes that are also relevant to UT
And many of those companies had little or no contact with us until now
departments at UT – I bring people together and explore opportunities for collaboration
Then I try to direct those opportunities to the right experts in Twente
Professors often want to know: what’s in it for me
A lot is happening in Zwolle –UT needs to be involved
‘Vehicle manufacturer Scania is a good example
Their largest and most modern assembly plant in Europe is based in Zwolle
Scania turns all the individual parts into complete trucks
They want to make their production process more flexible
so they can scale up quickly when there’s a peak in orders – without overburdening their staff
They’re already in discussions about this with
This type of practice-oriented questions fit perfectly with our research.’
‘We’re working on improving the transition to the master’s in Sustainable Energy Technology (SET)
to make it more attractive for students from universities of applied sciences like Windesheim
I’ve updated the pre-master programme to create a smoother flow from mechanical engineering
I also hope that eventually we can launch a part-time master’s in Zwolle
That’s a dream that governments are also enthusiastic about.’
education and government work together on the smart manufacturing industry of the future
artificial intelligence and sustainability are central here
UT has been an official partner of Academy Perron038 since 2023
This gives us the chance to connect directly with companies in the region
and link education and lifelong learning with practice.’
‘To more concrete projects where companies and researchers truly work together
And to expanding Lifelong Learning significantly
Large companies often have their own internal academy
The challenge for UT and Windesheim is to connect with those initiatives and attract new talent together
Zwolle and Enschede are a good match – both practical and down-to-earth
It would be fantastic if we could harness that for the benefit of both the region and the university.’
The University of Twente and the Zwolle region are joining forces to tackle societal challenges and seize opportunities together
Zwolle is growing and needs academic knowledge and technical talent
The proximity of Windesheim University of Applied Sciences and strong partnerships offers a solution
This collaboration focuses on the smart manufacturing industry
and embed new insights directly into education
We’re also working on a smoother talent pipeline
A 34-year-old man from Zwolle was sentenced Tuesday to six years in prison for online abuse of 33 girls. Daan F. used Snapchat and TikTok to coerce the victims into taking sexually explicit pictures for him, according to the court ruling. This conviction matches the prosecution's request

was convicted of possessing 1,640 child pornography videos and images
He kept in touch with some of the girls for extended periods of time

he was still in contact with one of the girls," the judge noted
"The court heavily criticizes the defendant for depriving many victims of their carefree childhood," the judge said

ZWOLLE, La. -- A racial slur used by a Zwolle police officer that was caught on video is “very unacceptable” and will lead to the officer’s termination, Zwolle Mayor Marvin Frazier said.
The video captures Officer Kevin Rivers saying the N-word four times along with other profanity. It appears to have been filmed by someone standing in a hallway, presumably at the police station.
Frazier said Police Chief Daniel Thomas called him about another matter and also sent him the video. Frazier said he told Thomas to suspend Rivers immediately until he can go before the Town Council.
The video began circulating on social media Thursday. But by then action had already been taken against Rivers.
“That type of situation is totally unacceptable and won’t be tolerated in our municipality,” Frazier said in a telephone interview with KTBS.
In the video, Rivers could be heard saying his police chief is Black and he “hates Black people.” He then raises his voice while speaking to someone else in the room and said, “He don’t like (N-word). That’s what I’m trying to tell you. He don’t like (N-word).”
Rivers went on to say the chief was tired of the kids running the streets. Rivers used more vulgarity as he admitted to stopping the teens who are out late and questioning them.
“I’m speaking the truth. Y’all can either accept me or leave me for what I say,” Rivers said.
Chief Thomas was not immediately available for comment Thursday afternoon.
Frazier said he doesn’t know what caused Rivers to say what he did.
“I don’t know the circumstances. I do know we’re not going to accept his employment no longer,” Frazier said.
He expects to call a special meeting of the Zwolle Town Council in the coming days to take up Rivers' recommended termination.
Rivers is suspended without pay until then. He’s been employed with the department about nine months, Frazier said.
The Town Council’s regular meeting was held at 5 p.m. Thursday. But it was too late to have the Rivers’ matter added to the agenda.
Zwolle Town Councilman James Hubbard said a special session will most likely be called next week. He wanted to speak with the mayor and police chief at the council meeting Thursday, but neither men attended the meeting. Frazier was out of town.
Residents told KTBS they have faith in the council, mayor and police chief to take the appropriate steps to terminate Rivers.

www.ad.nl – ZWOLLE, PEC Zwolle has Sunday afternoon against SC Heerenveen. In their own home it was 1-1. The Zwolle team took the lead thanks to a goal by Dylan Vente, Alireza Jahanbakhsh made in the second half equal for the team of Robin van Persie.
PEC Zwolle against SC Heerenveen was the match between the number thirteen and number eleven. For both teams the ideal chance of climbing to the left row. Although there are more hijackers on the coast: the gap between 15 and eight is only three points.
Dylan Vente set PEC Zwolle on course early. Ody Velanas, who played for the suspended Filip Krastev, kept the overview and gave the ball on Vente. He scored his tenth league goal of the season.
What followed was a first half in which both teams had the necessary opportunities. First Linday was dangerous for the Frisians, on which PEC from the counter was threatening. Vente just did not get the ball behind Van der Hart again.
In the second half, the Zwolle team failed to maintain the threat of the first half. That sc Heerenveen made 1-1 a quarter of an hour after the break was therefore not surprising. Alireza Jahanbakhsh was able to score after Jasper Schendelaar initially rescued.

Kenneth Taylor of Ajax celebrates putting Ajax up 1-0 against PEC ZwolleOlaf Kraak / ANP / AFPAjax have kept their 8-point lead in the Dutch Eredivisie intact after narrowly beating PEC Zwolle in sunny Overijssel.Just days after losing 2-1 to Eintracht Frankfurt, Ajax turned up at the MAC³PARK Stadion in Zwolle for game week 25 of the Dutch Eredivisie
PSV grabbed their first league win since January 25th
and Ajax knew only a win would keep their 8-point lead alive
Player ratingsFlashscoreA barely entertaining first half saw Ajax lose a pivotal piece as striker Brian Brobbey had to leave the game with a knee injury, leaving Bertrand Traore as the only striker option for manager Francesco Farioli
Former Ajax youth product Olivier Aertssen nearly opened the scoring within 20 minutes, but the PEC Zwolle defender couldn't profit from Matheus letting a cross from a corner slip through his hands. Ajax winger Mika Godts then tested Jesper Schendelaar with a blistering effort
but the PEC goalkeeper kept his goal clean to end the opening half
Fifteen eventless minutes after the break, PEC Zwolle defender Anselmo Garcia Mac Nulty hit the ball with his hand after Kenneth Taylor tried his luck
Referee Bas Nijhuis was told to review the incident by VAR Alex Bos and swiftly gave Ajax a penalty
Taylor himself stepped up for his eighth goal of the Eredivisie season and beat Schendelaar with a crisp finish in the top left corner
putting Ajax in front after an hour of playing
Unable to create many big chances, Ajax found themselves grinding out the match after Steven Berghuis failed to beat Schendelaar from the edge of the box and Bertrand Traore converted from an offside position. Thomas Buitink got close to equalising in the 92nd minute
but the former Vitesse man couldn't put his team alongside the league leaders
Ajax left Zwolle with a gritty win and kept their 8-point lead in the Eredivisie as they head into a crucial week with games against Eintracht Frankfurt and bogey team AZ

Dutch side PEC Zwolle's appeal to the International Football Assocation Board (IFAB) over a controversial disallowed goal has been dismissed
A rough start meant PSV fell behind after just two minutes when Bulgarian winger Filip Krastev opened the scoring for the home side with a great effort from distance
Unable to successfully find their way through PEC's defense in the opening stages
PSV squandered an opportunity ten minutes after Krastev's opening goal when Jokan Bakayoko couldn't manage to hit the target after a cross from Perisic
That same duo struck again 25 minutes in and put PSV alongside PEC when Bakayoko got on the end of a driven pass from Perisic and fired home for the 2-1
PSV, who drew at home to AZ last week, finally got things going and earned a penalty when Eliano Reijnders kicked Perisic in the calf and got punished for it after a VAR check. Luuk de Jong took the penalty
but failed to score in his third consecutive game after he put the penalty wide left
Things got from bad to worse for PSV when Krastev added a second goal to his tally after the Bulgarian picked up a loose ball from a corner and fired it past Argentinian goalkeeper Walter Benitez for PEC's second lead of the day
PSV managed to create several opportunities after the break and kept PEC at bay
but hardly managed to put PEC goalkeeper Mike Hauptmeijer in jeopardy
Shortly after substitute Noa Lang got things going up front and created a chance for fellow substitute Ricardo Pepi
PEC thought they'd hit once again when Nick Fichtinger headed in a corner just one minute after coming on
The home fans were however left disappointed after referee Jeroen Manschot disallowed the goal after Dylan Mbayo was deemed to be offside
A faltering PSV still conceded a third after Filip Krastev escaped from the defence and was allowed to run freely at the league leaders' goal with Dylan Vente alongside him before passing the ball to Vente and adding an assist to his two goals.
Key match statsFlashscorePEC Zwolle earned a hard-fought victory in their battle against relegation and won their first game since November, a game which moves them up to thirteenth in the Eredivisie.
PSV could see rivals Ajax and FC Utrecht close the gap to respectively one and four points after their games against Heerenveen and AZ.
Share on FacebookShare on X (formerly Twitter)Share on PinterestShare on LinkedInZWOLLE, La. (KSLA) - An arrest warrant has been issued for a suspect allegedly connected to a double shooting in Zwolle Friday afternoon (June 7).
On June 11, Sheriff Aaron Mitchell reported an arrest warrant has been issued for Jeremiah Deshawn Davis, 17, of Many. He’s wanted for attempted first-degree murder, illegal carrying and discharging of weapons, and aggravated criminal damage to property. Officials with the sheriff’s office say others involved were: Earnest McCray IV, 20, Maurice Shelby, 23, and others.
The Sabine Parish Sheriff’s Office says the individuals listed above met up on Magnolia Street near Horton Street in Zwolle, when for unknown reasons, gunfire was exchanged between the group of males; bullets hit them and two cars. Shelby was treated for a gunshot wound and released. McCray is being treated at a Shreveport hospital for multiple gunshot wounds. Detectives think Davis also sustained a minor gunshot wound.
The sheriff says Davis should be considered armed and dangerous. A cash reward is being offered for any information leading to his arrest. Anyone with information should call the Sabine Parish Sheriff’s Office at 318-256-9241.
The Sabine Parish Sheriff’s Office says the shooting happened around 1:30 p.m. on Magnolia Street. Officials say they found a Chevy with numerous bullet holes in it and several shell casings on the street.
One person who was shot, McCray, was taken to Sabine Medical Center in serious condition, then flown to a Shreveport hospital. The second person shot, Shelby, wound up at the Florien Police Department and was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. He was later released after being treated.
Two cars have been seized as part of the investigation, the sheriff’s office says. One was found on Magnolia Street, while the other, also riddled with bullet holes, was located on Allens Loop off Highway 474 near Florien.

‘I hope the KNVB will send us an apology’: PEC Zwolle coach Johnny Jansen seethes after Ajax defeat | OneFootballGet Belgian & Dutch Football News
Frustrations were high as PEC Zwolle were beaten 2-0 by Ajax this weekend. However, following the result in Amsterdam, coach Johnny Jansen wasn’t fuming at his players. The unsavoury feeling was saved solely for the game’s officials, as Ajax took the lead through Brian Brobbey
Referee Alex Bos did not see that Steven Berghuis was actually the last to touch the ball. Jansen already spoke of it as a disgrace during the match and that feeling did not change in his thoughts to ESPN afterwards. Acknowledging Go Ahead Eagles‘ previous KNVB apology received via letter
“I hope that the KNVB will also send us a letter with apologies
At first they said: we looked into it and it is not true
they came to us to indicate that they had seen it wrong.”
Despite his slight frustration, Jansen realised that nothing changed for PEC as his side failed to defend the set-piece
then it’s a corner and (but) then you have to keep doing your job
so you have to deal with disappointments.”

PEC Zwolle is going to the international football rules organization IFAB in an attempt to have their wrongly disallowed goal in the 1-1 draw with RKC Waalwijk last month to be awarded anyway. The 13th-placed team in the Eredivisie first made an attempt for this with the Dutch football association, the KNVB, but they were unsuccessful.
A late goal from PEC player Nick Fichtinger was disallowed a month ago with a 1-1 scoreline because the virtual assistant referee had seen an offside during the corner that led to the goal. However, this is against the rules as a player cannot be offside from a corner, the KNVB quickly admitted the same.
This led to PEC asking the football association to replay the rest of the match with a 2-1 lead for the club from Zwolle. However, the KNVB did not agree to this.
“On Tuesday night, PEC Zwolle contacted The International Football Association Board (IFAB) and submitted an official protest against the wrongful use of the rules by the referee.” The club has also “requested that the situation be looked at and for the match to be restarted with a 1-2 scoreline.”
RKC Waalwijk is currently bottom of the Eredivisie table and is in a fight to avoid relegation to the second division. They have eight points and are six points behind Sparta Rotterdam, who are in the relegation play-off spot.
PEC also still needs the points, as they are six points ahead of Sparta. There are 17 matches remaining in the Eredivisie season.

it's so magnificent to feel everything at the moment
Van Polen took over the captaincy in January 2013
Liverpool's incoming manager Arne Slot had worn the armband through to the summer of 2012
with Joey van den Berg taking it on until he left halfway through the 2012-13 season; from there
That Dutch Cup triumph propelled them into Europe for the first time
as they fell to Sparta Prague in the playoff

"We played them on a Thursday in De Kuip in the Dutch Cup and he f---ing destroyed me
We played them again on the Sunday in the league
It's worth noting that Van Polen also came close to leaving once. "It was five or six years ago; I talked with the trainer of Central Coast Mariners in Australia
but we were fourth in the league and PEC wouldn't let me leave." Yet he stayed loyal to PEC and though he has considered retirement before
when the club were relegated back to the second tier of Dutch football in 2022
he knew he had to help them back to the top flight
it wouldn't have been good to stay in the KKD [second division]," he says
They were promoted at the first attempt by finishing second and after preserving their Eredivisie status this year
he knew it was the right time to step aside
But he did have doubt -- the atmosphere in the changing room after their 2-2 draw at Ajax saw second thoughts flit through his mind
"It's hard to describe how amazing that feels if you're not there."
his contract negotiations with PEC Zwolle "took one minute and we closed the deal"
he felt like challenging the club a little
The contract modifications began with a meal at the renowned three-Michelin-star restaurant De Librije; next year was a camping holiday with his family
The third clause he thought up was a second-hand car for his wife
The club sent him several options: he went for a white Peugeot with 55,000-odd miles on the clock
The fourth clause last year was a round of drinks (a beer or coffee
he says) for every supporter in the ground

he'll write the final page in this 17-year love affair
His daughters will be delighted: near where they live on Saturdays
the locals all eat fries -- the Van Polens have been used to their father's prematch meal of pasta
and they'll be there this weekend to watch their dad's final match for the "Blauwvingers" ("Bluefingers")
especially when things aren't going well with the club
then it comes to me to talk with people at the office and with supporters
I try to get everyone moving in the same direction in tough moments."
Even after he leaves this weekend, it's clear Van Polen won't become a stranger to the club. As one fan wrote this week, a statue wouldn't be fitting for Van Polen as "nine times out of ten it's an ugly thing and that's the last thing we would wish for you. What is much more important to us is that you are retained by the club in a position that suits you."
So Van Polen will stay in a role with the club, as a training director. "I'll start in August, and I'll work inside the club but also go and watch some other clubs for us too." He'll also work as a television pundit.
There was a lot of excitement after news broke he was going to play a season with his local amateur side VVOG in Harderwijk, fans hopeful of one more glimpse of a bona fide Dutch cult hero. "It's only with my friends, we're just messing around," he says. "They all thought I was going to play for the first team, but no, it's seven vs. seven and we'll drink beer."
When he filmed his leaving announcement, he did it in one take. The stadium was empty behind him, a sole spotlight above his head. He didn't like it. He loves the place when it's full and on Sunday, for one final time, they'll be seeing their club legend run out onto the field for his beloved PEC Zwolle. "It's difficult to talk about yourself, but I'm proud of what I've done. I think in a few years I'll be able to appreciate it more."
So how does he see the past 17 years? How has he changed from the man who pulled on the shirt for the first time back in October 2007? He smiles, laughs, and answers: "I'm a lot prettier now."
And how does he anticipate feeling on Monday when it's all done and he's no longer a professional footballer? "I think I'll have quite the hangover."

PEC Zwolle mourn the passing of chairman Meine Breemhaar (64) | OneFootballGet Belgian & Dutch Football News
PEC Zwolle recently announced the death of their chairman, Meine Breemhaar. Via the report of Voetbal International
he was chairman of the club’s foundation board and successful director of MAC3PARK
Breemhaar had been a sponsor of PEC with his real estate company MAC3PARK since 2014, and from July 2016, the stadium has adopted the company’s name. In addition to being a sponsor and shareholder, Breemhaar was chairman of the foundation’s board for several years. Deep down, he was a PEC fan for many years and one that will be deeply missed
It is understood that the businessman had been terminally ill for some time and died on New Year’s Day. As a result of this sad news, a minute’s silence will be observed in Zwolle as the Blauwvingers take on NEC in their next home game on Saturday the 11th of January. The PEC players will also wear black armbands that evening to commemorate Breemhaar
