Ik ben Saskia Vugts (1963) Al jaren schilder ik portretten in opdracht met olieverf. Na mijn opleiding aan de academie ben ik professioneel portretschilder. Mijn grootste inspiratiebron is de unieke mens. Met liefde probeer ik in ieder portret een hart en ziel te leggen.Op een geheel eigenwijze schilder ik mijn portretten op de authentieke manier met een knipoog naar modern design. Voorheen tekende ik portretten met pastel, ik maak ook dierportretten in opdracht. Aan een Portretopdracht gaat een fotoshoot vooraf. Waar veel energie ingestoken wordt, het is belangrijk om een goed beeld van de te portretteren persoon te krijgen. Na een aantal maanden is het te vervaardigen portret klaar. In opdracht van de gemeente Vught schilderde ik een levensgroot staatsieportret van Koning Willem Alexander(150/210). Voor meer informatie kijk op mijn persoonlijke website: http://saskiavugts.nl/portret-in-opdracht/
I giocatori partono in slalom, tenendo una pettorina di colore diverso in mano (cerchi colorati) e dopo l’ultimo cono passano palla indietro al compagno della fila (1). Il mister chiama il colore (2) che per primo si deve muovere per ricercare scambio 1-2 con un altro giocatore di un’altra fila (3). Tutti gli altri si muovono di conseguenza. Si passa poi la pettorina al giocatore successivo. Tipologie di conduzione palla e trasmissione a scelta.
Players dribble through the cones bringing in the hand a vest with different colours (circles here) and then pass the ball back to the mate in the same queue after the last cone (1). The coach calls the colour (2) who shall move first to find a wall pass with a player in another queue (3). All the others shall move as consequence. The vest must be given to the following player. Dribbles and pass type variations shall be choosen

Five-Factor Model of Personality, Assessment, and Job PerformanceA.J. Panneton
Personality Assessment has long been an area of interest within the applied researcher and practitioner communities due to the utility and benefit that a universal, categorical taxonomy of personality traits holds within the applied domain of Organizational Psychology, specifically Personnel Selection. Personality Assessment has become a very common aspect of personnel selection programs as an organizational tool aimed at identifying those potential candidates who possess personality trait structures based on uniquely specific motivational needs which are predicted to coalesce well with the specific characteristics of the available job position. The present paper provides a brief history of Murray’s (1938) need-press theory and the most commonly utilized taxonomy of personality trait structure: The five-factor model (FFM) of personality, also known as the “Big Five.”

The History of the Higdon House PDF
1. The History of the Higdon House
The Higdon House Inn and Gardens is one of the oldest and most beautiful of Greensboro’s architectural treasures. This
grand lady celebrated her 204th
birthday this year, as the first construction was completed in 1810. If her walls could talk, she
would be able to share stories of Greensboro’s residents through the best and worst of times, from Greensboro’s infancy right
on through today. There have only been six families that have owned, loved, and resided in this magnificent Victorian
Estate.
This beautiful southern manor, as it sits today, is extremely rich in history: A history that has been passed down from family
to family at the time of sale. Between this passing of the Manor’s origin, unique history, and what we have obtained from
public records, there is much that is known regarding her historical and beautiful life.
The land on which the Higdon House Inn and Gardens now sits was first owned by the University of Georgia. It was
originally procured as the original site for U.G.A.’s campus. However, in 1809 James H. Nickelson purchased the lots from
the trustees of the U.G.A. and built the mill that is directly behind the house; the mill that is still there to this day.
In 1810 the first part of the house, which consisted of two rooms, one above the other, was constructed. These rooms today,
serve as the dining room below and a bedroom above which still has the smaller door and fireplace that are original to the
1810 construction of the house. Later on in 1840, the Nickelsons added to the house. Rooms were added on both floors as
well as a staircase in the center hall, changing the once “one over one” home into what is referred to as standard “two over
two.” The Nickelson’s also added a central hallway, on both floors, with a centrally located staircase connecting the first and
second floor of the home.
The profits obtained from the mill that James H. Nickelson originally built in 1809 enabled the family to once again add even
more additions to the “two over two” home structure including beautiful forward facing columns in the Greek Revival Style,
a style very popular in the first half of the 19th
century. The house was then considered a “four over four,” officially
classifying the home as a true southern manor.
The Nickelsons were able to keep the southern manor in the family throughout the Civil War, however, it suffered greatly
due to the lack of manpower. As all of the slaves were gone, and there was absolutely no money for repairs or maintenance to
be completed on the home, the estate quickly fell into disarray. Despite the lack of upkeep and maintenance of the southern
manor, the mammie’s quarters from that era are still intact and standing to this very day. They are located, in the exact spot
they were first constructed, on the Northwest corner of the Higdon House Inn and Garden’s property.
In 1888 the trustees of the deceased James B. Nickelson sold the house to James “Ed” Armor and his wife, Carrie. The house
at this point was practically in ruins. The Armors hired an architect to rebuild it in the French version of the Victorian style,
referred to as “La Belle Époque,” which means the “beautiful era.” It was during this time that the current kitchen and
butler’s pantry, located off the formal dining room, were added. All of the wood burning fireplaces in the “four over four”
home were converted to coal burners, and the Armors commissioned to have stained glass windows to be shipped from
Germany, circa 1890: the same stained glass windows that currently adorn the Higdon House. The beautiful wrap around
veranda that still skirts the house to this day was also a result of that major remodel.
The house was sold again September 15, 1908 to Colonel “Jimboy” James Davison, a lawyer, and his wife Annie Dell.
Colonel Davison died in the infamous flu epidemic of 1921 and, subsequently, his wife sold the house and property to Mary
Leila Mill for a newer mill that was to be constructed behind the southern manor and estate. It was purchased as a residence
for the new mill’s general manager, Mr. G.R. Brooks Sr. and his family. They resided in the beautiful southern manor until
April of 1946.
Mr. Ed Higdon, a lumberman and his wife Mary purchased the house in 1946 and moved in with their five sons, Willie,
Lonnie, Ronnie, Jim (retired Atlanta commissioner), and Lynn. Lonnie Higdon bought the house from the estate of his
mother and lived there with his wife Kay until 2001, when the present owners, Jack Rallo and Jeff Hough purchased the
house from the Higdon family, which is why to this day, this beautifully reconstructed southern manor that has so vibrantly
been returned to its former glory is still called the “Higdon House.”
“The house chose me,” Jack says when he tells of how he and Jeff came to the area in search of a historic home. He had
looked at several other homes in the surrounding area, but had not found what he was looking for, and neither had Jeff. Their
real estate agent persuaded them to “just take a look” at the property. Jack and Jeff, upon touring the manor knew instantly
that the Higdon House was the “ONE.” They immediately set about the daunting task of restoring the property to the
elegance of the 1890 renovation. It was during this renovation and restoration that the new owners found the brick
foundation of the original separate kitchen from 1810.
Included in this restoration and renovation was the construction of a 6,000 square foot Ballroom complete with a centrally
located and elevated dance floor. The entire Ballroom replicates the classical “Parisian Renaissance” style of architecture
where traditionally a “cross like” layout of halls, equipped with gabled roofs were utilized not only for symbolic reasons, but
also for optimal functionality (the layout provides for optimal acoustic efficacy). Keeping with the classical style, the
Ballroom consists of two symmetrical halls that culminate and meet at the focal point of the elegantly designed Ballroom; a
fully equipped and elevated dance floor.
Also added in this massive restorative undertaking, Jack and Jeff decided to add a beautifully simple, yet elegant “la piscine,”
or pool, which is centered on the Western elevation of the southern manor: the side of the manor house that reflects the
Federalist style of architecture that was so prolific in the American south from 1780 to 1820. This style, often attributed to
the English born Adam’s brothers, can be found from as far north as Boston, to as far south as Savannah: the name of the
section of Gardens located to the southwest side of the pool. The entire 2.3 acres of beautifully landscaped and manicured
gardens were also added at that time.
