Wanted to reset my Polar S210, but was unsure how to do it since I’ve lost track of the manual long time ago. Thanks to http://www.pulsklokke.no I managed.

Read an article about Tor Erling Staff and his client, also known as Lommemannen. It has gotten a lot of attention the past few days, which also the cell phone belonging to Staff has taken notice of
Pågangen på telefonen til Staff har vært massiv de siste dagene. Mobilen hans brøt sammen, så i går måtte han skaffe seg ny.
It is not easy to manage to handle the information overflow, when even the cell phone breaks down. Wonder why the new one will handle it better, larger battery?
We have spent the weekend together with my colleagues in Prague, as alway a very nice city. In January much better than during high season in summer, you are able to walk around without 100.000 other people around you at all time.
I’ve taken pictures off course of the different beer brands I tried, first Gambrinus http://www.gambrinus.com/

Here is a picture from a traditional beer serving tavern we visited, funny enough just across the street where we stayed on our VOT-03 tour. We also drank the dark beer they served there, not sure what brand that was.
Found this “thing” beside the sink in one of the restaurant. Not sure if it was to freshen the air in the room, or if it was perfume for free…

Got it from Elin – the Led Zeppelin compilation, a must have!
Christmas gift, Lars Tormod wants to raise my jazz knowledge 🙂
My latest book is Berlin by Anthony Beevor, the same author who wrote Stalingrad. As for that book this one is really good, the author is well known for weaving together the basic facts with personal histories. What I did not know, and found the most shocking fact was the huge amount of women that was raped by the Red Army on their way from Russia to Berlin and how the leaders of the Red Army ignored it. For Stalin found the “worst” threat to be that Russian soldiers should get “western thoughts”.
I especially found the last pages of the book very good, where he wraps up how many of the Wehrmacht generals (and others) refused to admit that what they had done was wrong. Instead they tried to explain what they could have done otherwise to win the war. For instance, some said it was wrong to start a war on two fronts, if they had not, they could have beaten the Bolsheviks…

The leader for Norwegian Immigrant’s Forum http://www.norskinnvandrerforum.no/ says in a response to Aslam Ahsan that he can see no problems with schools with only minoritys. He claims that Norwegian schools prioritizes so called Norwegian knowledge, and that they instead should focus on educating the minority children about Turkey and Pacistan…read for yourself http://www.dagbladet.no/nyheter/2008/01/10/523467.html
Talk about biting your own tail, according to their own website they aim to for instance increase their participation in the Norwegian society. How lame is it not then to say that he can see no problem in having schools with just minoritys. To me is sounds more like he wants “Schools with just muslim children learning the Qur’ân word by word”.
Off course it is a problem with having schools with just minoritys, they will never be able to be fully part of the Norwegian society it they not mingle with Norwegian kids
First of all, let there be no doubt about the fact that the story itself is sad, and that it is no laughing matter, my point here is what the news value is for me and my fellow Norwegians.
I turned on my computer this morning just to check my email before going to work, and as usual I also checked the latest news. Dagbladet.no reported as the headline news “Pregnant 20 year old corporal gone missing”. I must admit that I found it a bit off topic using the word corporal in the headline, but then again I thought that it had something to do with things happened in the Norwegian army.
But then I read about the case http://www.dagbladet.no/nyheter/2008/01/09/523421.html. The story is about a girl gone missing in North Carolina US about a month ago, and their family has created a group on Facebook go try to get her back. I must admit that I am not able to see the real news value for me living here in Norway, it is just another issue of Dagbladet doing “one feather becoming several chickens”. I got pissed when I realized that this was no Norwegian story. Sure, a lot of sad things happens around the world, but I do not need to know it all.
It seems like Dagbladet has had no real news to have as their headliner, so they have just looked to Cnn.com and copied theirs headliner, ignoring the part that even though CNN is a “World news reporter” it is also an American news agency reporting what is to be considered local news for the US.
But, still, even if Dagbladet and VG keeps annoying me again and again, I keep coming back, just for the simple fact that typing www.vg.no or www.db.no is so fast…doh
Here is the “real” story http://edition.cnn.com/2008/US/01/09/missing.marine/index.html
This one have been standing on the other side of the street just outside our house for two days now. Need it, come and get it
