2007-11-06 19:18 Intendend and unintended consequences
The Swedish Home PC program, with tax breaks for purchasing a computer, seems to have had its intended consequence with broad PC and Internet adoption. But there were also effects that the Government likely didn't plan for. The following quote attributed to Steve Ballmer of Microsoft reinforces that a company providing core functionality to lot of people in a big market can make a lot of money: "The Swedish government is printing money for Microsoft. Grab this opportunity while it's here, it can …

2007-11-06 02:29 Barilla scared shitless to lose revenue...
On their web site Barilla has published a document entitled "The Dangers of Low-Carb Diets" "A low-carb diet is simply a low-calorie diet in disguise. But more importantly, low-carb diets are, by design, high-fat diets. The creators of these diets have to figure out what to tell people to eat if they cant eat carbohydrates. The only other options are fats and proteins, and the result is a dangerous, seriously unbalanced diet." Yeah, lots of good fat, it doesn't hurt and you're absolutely right …

You can't have missed the hit Release me by the Swedish band Oh Laura. http://www.youtube.com/watchv=NjQXMZe2ouk . It's not only a very good song with fantastic lyrics. To me it is special because of another reason: the drummer of this successful band, Magnus Ohlsson, used to play in my former folk music band. We played in the band STEN during our high school years in Sveg, in Härjedalen with my brother on the guitare, me on electric violin and another friend on the bass. Congratulations to Mag …

We North Americans may just now be coming around on this Loney, Dear character-- the well-punctuated project from Swedish songwriter Emil Svanängen-- but the nice folks at a handful of labels are sure making it easy to play catch up.

2007-10-31 14:46 Executive lawyer: œThey have the right to get their money back
Mats Lindahl, executive lawyer at the tenants association, gets upset when he examines the conditions for the exchange students together with Lundagård. The administration fee which Folkuniversitetet/IHO defends in their official letter is not a problem he thinks. He is more critical towards their way of handling the rents. - If IHO charges the tenant five months rent but only lets her live there for 4,33months then they have charged an exorbitant rent for that period, says Mats Lindahl. He also …

2007-10-31 14:42 Students can get hundreds of thousands SEK in refund
No one knows exactly where the final cost will land. But it is already clear that the university has charged hundreds of thousand SEK in exorbitant rent from the exchange students for just this term. Earlier the people responsible at Folkuniversitetet and IHO claimed that there did not exist any other addition except for the administrative fee of SEK 600. But when Lundagård together with the tenants association worked out the monthly rent the source of the too high rent was discovered. IHO charg …

2007-10-29 16:29 The Imported Halloween
Halloween is almost upon us. Yes, even us who don't live in the USA. In the US, Halloween is one of the most celebrated holidays next to maybe christmas. Millions of people dress up in silly costumes, countless children wreak havoc demanding sweets from neighbors and relatives, and a fun-filled celebration of everything that is dark and scary. For some reason this "holiday" has been artificially imported into Sweden. The reason most likely being that the traditions in Sweden don't jive very well …

Fred Singer är en av de mer kända skeptikerna till FN:s klimatpanel (IPCC). Han har varit Professor of Environmental Sciences, University of Virginia. Han är också en av de aktivaste i debatten om globala uppvärmningen och anser att dagens uppvärmning är naturlig. Alla åtgärder t.ex. att reducera koldioxidutsläppen är därmed meningslösa för att påverka temperaturen. Singer har gett ut boken "Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1,500 Years".
