Well, a little disapointed that I didnt manage to hear the NATO General Secretary's thoughts here in Arendal on the current Geo political situation. l was so looking FW to hearing at first hand, (Jens Stoltenberg) what his "More Weapons means (More) Peace" speech that he made in January this year and what this actually means. Was his favourite bedtime reading George Orwells 1984 perhaps? (Newspeak)

It is the 8 th May; a special day in Europe, and especially Norway. Freedom comes at a price. 4400 UK and Commonwealth military personel made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom of this Nordic country that was occupied for 5 long years from April 1940 to May 1945. The Wreath, lying at the foot of the gravestone at Bygland Church of 7 crew members of the first Flying Fortress to be shot down during WW2 here in the Setesdal 81 years ago, was donated by the Forces Wives Challenge Org. based in the UK. Many thanks to them and their CEO Heather Sharp,

Agder Energi, Selskapet som fortsetter å tar uten å tenker på konsekvenser til fjordens dyreliv, lokale samfunnets behov, eller Setesdals sårbar natur. Hvorfor reagerer ikke Byglands politikere mot denne helt synlig overgrepet?
