Medical instruments – the introduction and my impression

So, the other day, we were finally able to reach the Swedish countryside of Smålandsstenar for a thorough visit at Wing Plast AB. They are making medical instruments of various kinds for areas such as surgery and gynecology. My uncle, which is a medical supplicant at the local hospital of our home city, has always been keen on using Wing Plast medical instruments. Cutting to the chase, he got a formal invitation to visit Sweden and discover how they operate and manufacture on a regular basis. He could also bring an extra person, so he asked me. That is pretty much where the journey took off.

High quality and fully disposable

When we reached the facility of Wing Plast, I was stumbled upon the fact that their idea was to provide the highest quality of medical instruments, but simultaneously be on the verge of sustainability. Thus, they concentrate on developing and producing medical instruments using a method referred to as injection moulded plastics. This way, the moulding process of their medical instruments are drastically improved with the intention to be gentle towards our beloved mother earth. They are also ISO certified which is a strong indication of their quality standards.

Medical instruments improve global healthcare

While one of their core values is sustainability and high-quality products, let us not forget that they are also shaping the future development of global healthcare with their medical instruments. It was interesting to see that they co-operate with experts within areas of gynecology, obstetrics, colorectal surgery and urology in order to conceptualize and later on realize ideas for innovation. Therefore, it is safe to say that their medical instruments contribute to improved health care globally. Overall, it was a truly pleasant experience to visit Wing Plast and I desire to go there again in the future to see where development has brought them.

 

The team on vacation

Team golf

Let’s travel together with your team for some team-builing. My suggestion is that don’t play football during the vacation but instead do something different, but still be active. Do other sports like swimming, or golf. It’s actually pretty usual for athletes to entertain themselves. Fly to anoter country and play together! Your’re probably gonna swing the balls totally out of bounds but it’s not the most important. For your team during the vacation, you’re just gonna have fun, be active and have time to talk. I believe you should try golf. What do you think?

Get your own football team

Are you planning to get your own football team in the future? Think of the honor and glory of winning the league with your own team made up by mini-you’s. Would that not be great? The word football bad would have a new interesting meaning. If you are planning for your own team you will need some things to get there.

1. A totally football crazy girlfriend with the same hopes and dreams as you.

2. A pregdate calendar table.

With a  pregdate calendar table you can plan the arrival of you new football player. Just make sure you know when you want your players to arrive and then use the calander to see how far you have come and when it is time to bake another little player. The pregnancy calendars is used for indicating the date of arrival of the expected baby. A well-known instrument that every football team planner must have to be able to work efficiently.

The company Wing Plast has a great calendar for the purpose. It comes in two different sizes. Normal size and pocket size. The pocket size is great! You can bring your Wing Plast pregdate calendar everywhere and keep track of how far in the pregnancy your awesome girlfriend is. The calendar also have a nice color theme of white, pink and purple.

While the calendar is easy to use, has a clear and accurate scale and has instructions at the back you girlfriend probably has the complete opposite attributes. This is if you are so lucky that you have a girlfriend at all. You probably don’t. So while it is simple to get a calendar from Wing Plast it will be a challenge to get you a girlfriend. Especially a girlfriend that can stand you and wants to have at least eleven kids. Good luck with that, mate. But if you get your calendar from Wing Plast you will at least be half way through to get the things you need to start making your team!

Remember. Nothing is impossible. Go for it!

Why Europeans Love Football/Soccer and How We Celebrate It?

european football soccerYou may have ended up on this article because you’re new arrived in Europe, you’re American or you’re an European who has just woke up to realize we, Europeans, are exaggerating over our passion for soccer. Or do we?

In a short story: Yes, but why? Well, for Europeans, soccer, is about traditions and history.

Many teams are dating all the way back to 1800s, so the history speaks for itself. The sport has been developed and regulated around 1863 in England, but kicking a ball with the feet has been a people’s passion for more than 1000 years. And it’s nothing wrong with that. In America, soccer has never been popular. Instead, Americans have baseball, basketball and rugby close to their heart. But there is no comparison in between the different sport passions.

Europeans manifest a kind of veneration for their favorite football team. Every soccer team comes with its gallery, which is formed by voluntaries who adore and worship their favorite team and its players, which will sing and yell songs and words of encouragement. The gallery of supporters might seem a little bit aggressive and wild for others than us, Europeans, however, if you find yourself in a soccer match and meet the gallery, you’ll notice fast how friendly and loving they are.

This is not all. A lot of anger and love manifests happens during a soccer game, even in people’s homes. During an important match, people are hosting a mini-party in their homes to enjoy, scream and watch their favorite team playing, with beer, chips and other snacks to go with it. Kind of like the Superbowl for Americans, but more than one time in a year.

Important games in Europe can be considered the UEFA Euro, which happens every 4 years, where every European Country puts together their best players to form the national team and send them in the championship. The finals are played in the summers, and if you travel anywhere in Europe during that period, you’ll see people on the streets singing to support their country. Another important event is the FIFA World Cup, where all the countries in the world can participate. UEFA Champions League is the competition where more teams from the same country compete for a spot to represent it in the competition against countries.

So why are we Europeans so crazy after soccer?

Well, we love beer and snacks, but the real reason is we love competition. To cheer up for your country or favorite team is for us great entertainment.

The State of the Barclays Premier League Right Now

Barclays Premier leagueWith the Barclays Premier League a little over halfway way through Leicester City currently looks like they are going to be lifting the trophy this year. They may have come from the Championship but are playing like they have been in the Premier League for years now.

They have cut through the competition including the likes of Manchester City who were title favorites this year. The net worth of their team is lower than most top sides in Europe and they have no big names to boast of. But the type of football they are playing under Claudio Ranieri is first class.

In second place right now is Tottenham Hotspur who have surprised everybody with an impressive Premier League campaign this season. They have been strong at the back and have scored a lot of goals up front. They have the strongest goal difference in the league right now.

Arsenal and Manchester City round up the top 4 with Manchester United in fifth place.

Last year’s winners, Chelsea, have performed quite poorly this season and are in 13th place right now which is not acceptable. Jose Mourinho has already been fired and Guus Hiddink, their interim manager is trying everything he can to lift them up. It is working since they are no longer in danger of entering a relegation battle and are 6 points clear of the bottom 3 right now.

Liverpool is languishing in the middle of the table currently and is having a tough time overcoming sides like West Ham United, Southampton and arch rivals, Everton who have been much more consistent than the Merseyside Red’s.

Aston Villa’s Premier League run looks all but over with just 16 points from 25 games so far but they did pick up a victory last time out. Who knows, they may just put together a string of wins and be back in the relegation battle.

Who will Win the Premier League This Season?

The English Premier League is a UK football league with 20 teams all competing against each other for top honors.

title-premier-league-footballThe competition begins in August and carries on till May the following year. 38 matches are played by all of the teams. They face each other team in the league twice, once at a home and once away.

The Football league has been the main football competition in the United Kingdom since 1888. It is also the most watched sporting league in the world.

It’s also among the highest paid leagues in the world. This is largely due to the media attention the sport demands and the rising revenues received from it.

The clubs which are taking part change every year. The bottom 3 clubs are relegated to the lower leagues while three new clubs from the lower leagues become a part of the Premier League.

The winner of a match is awarded 3 points while the loser gets nothing. Both teams are awarded a single point in case of a draw. The team with the highest number of points at the end of the season is declared the winner.

Chelsea are the reigning champions of the Premier League after winning the 2014-15 season. But they don’t look like they are going to be winning any titles this year given their poor performance. They have only won 7 out of 25 games this season and are currently in 13th position.

On the other hand, Leicester City, a club that was just promoted to the Premier League last season are on top. They managed to score 41 points in their entire 2014-15 campaign but have already picked up 53 points after just 25 games this season. Their next match is against Arsenal at the Emirates stadium. Things certainly are looking up for them.

An Introduction to the Premier League and European Football

the Premier LeagueThe Premier League is the top football league in England and is one of the most popular leagues in Europe and the world. 20 teams take part in the league each year.

There are 38 games played each season of which nineteen are played on their home grounds and nineteen are played at the home ground of every other team in the league. The league is sponsored by Barclays Bank which is why it is called the Barclays Premier league officially.

The bottom three teams in the Premier League at the end of the season are relegated to the Championship. The top 2 teams in the Championship are promoted to the Premier League with playoffs being held between the 3rd and 6th team to decide the third team to be promoted.

Every victory in the Premier League accounts for 3 points while a draw earns either time a point. A loss awards teams no points. Each team tries to get as many points as they can during the season to try and come out on top. The top teams who want to win have to be careful of their goal difference too. If more than one team is level on points, the difference between the amount of goals they have scored and the number of goals they have conceded will be used to determine the winner.

Then there is the UEFA Champions League which is the Premier League for all of Europe. The top 3 teams in the Premier League get to play in the Champions League while the fourth team enters the qualifying rounds for the Champions League. They need to win multiple matches in the qualifying rounds in order to qualify for the group stage.

The teams placed 5th, 6th and 7th are entered into the UEFA Europa League. It’s quite complicated, but will all make sense eventually.

The Top London Clubs in English Football

There is so much to see in the United Kingdom for people interested in football.

London has a very proud tradition of famous football teams with a lot of competition amongst them for supremacy. There are at least 4 or 5 teams from London in the Premier League each year. There’s nothing as entertaining as a ‘London Derby’ that’s for sure.

Getting tickets for the matches may be a little difficult but persistence will pay off eventually. Ticketing agencies here usually sell tickets for the season to ardent supporters. But if you want to go watch a one off match, a little effort and anyone should be able to get their hands on a ticket or two.

LondonFootballArsenal and Chelsea have both managed to win the Premier League twice in the last fifteen years and have many other awards to their name as well.

Tottenham Hotspur is probably the next most popular side in London. They are playing amazing football this season and look poised for a top 4 finish.

Then there’s Crystal Palace, Watford and West Ham United who have all held various titles over the history of the Premier League.

And finally, you have the likes of Charlton Athletic, Brentford, Fulham and Queens Park Rangers who were all a part of top flight football at one point. The glory days may soon return though with all these clubs fighting it out in the Championship to one day be able to be a part of the Premier League once again.

For people who don’t support any of the Premier League teams as of now, perhaps they should choose one from London? But be ready to support the team chosen through the ups and downs though. Supporting a team in the Premier League means enjoying the good moments and mourning the bad.

Football in the UK

David Beckham is a name that has far surpassed English football and is now a worldwide commodity. Whether it is his hairstyle or his playing skills, fans just love this versatile footballer.

Football certainly is a passionately followed sport in England and the earliest known rules for the game date back to 1815. It took a while for order to come into this game and the standardized rules which are followed today.

football_in_UKThe rules today account for a couple of teams with 11 players each trying to take possession of a football and putting it into the opponent’s goal. There is a referee who is supposed to judge the game neutrally as well.

Everyone has heard of teams like Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool. But today, there are so many other teams making a name for themselves in the Premier League including Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Leicester City.

The United Kingdom is among the few countries in the world which support a Women’s Premier League as well. But the league remains semi-professional and doesn’t have quite a high profile as the men’s league even within the country.

There’s no denying the fact that England is where football originated and it spread to the rest of the world from there. By the 90’s it was being played all around Europe and the world. England were a spirited team to say the least but considering the last time they won the World Cup was in 1966, things haven’t been going too well for them in recent years.

They have some exciting fresh talent in the team right now and have been doing quite well recently. Let’s hope that they are able to show everyone how much English football has improved recently at the upcoming Euro 2016. Or perhaps Spain will make it three in a row this time.

The Importance of Photography Classes

There are a number of benefits of taking a photography class. While some people consider it a hobby, there are many others for whom it is a profession. Irrespective of the reason to take up photography, it offers a number of benefits including:

  • A professional photography class will provide the right mentorship for amateur photographers to turn into professionals. These classes will be full of others from the industry who will pass on their wisdom and knowledge. That is great for anyone.
  • Professional classes will also result in a professional certification which can be used for getting jobs later. There are many companies that won’t hire photographers unless they are professionally certified. Having such a certification can be a great advantage to anyone looking to make a living through photography.
  • Apart from gaining exposure to people in the same industry, a professional class will also allow photographers to gain exposure with various types of photography. There are so many different types to take up including photojournalism, editorial, landscape, architectural, etc. These classes are where a photographer will find the type of photography they are truly interested in.
  • There are many photography classes that also offer job placements to the students after. This is great for anyone looking to make photography their profession. It helps amateurs put their portfolio together and prepare for the job interviews as well.
