A View from Oslo South

Papa was inside and on his way out, suddenly he found the camera...

Best wishes and hugs
Anna and Tor

My Question and effort:

Can WordPress calculate?

I'm not at all a math specialist.

I thought 2 + 77 = 79. Am I wrong?

I retried:

5 + 97 = 102

Wrong again.

Don't give up.

2 + 97= 99

Wrong again. Huuu?

But:

10 + 47=57

Sorry wrong again

Heck, I do not give up:

4 + 67=71

Wrong again.

But:

2 + 67= 69

All in vain.

Sorry Claudie.

I am not able to comment.

Ylajali - fullkommen semesteravslutning i Dataforeningen

Fagruppen Ledelse og Strategi i Dataforeningen har hatt noen meget vellykkede arrangementer i løpet av 2008. Det gav styret og arrangementskomiteene anleding til å ha en gastronomisk opplevelse på restaurant Ylajali på St. Olavs plass i Oslo.

Maten var himmelsk og smakene var utrolig og utsøkt satt sammen.
Jeg har ingen bilder fra matrettene (savnet Renny), kun av noen av mine oppskattede faglige inspiratorer gjennom mange år, mens vi alle koste oss med mat og drikke.

Her er noen bilder fra bordet, tatt med et ordinært kamera.Men jeg savner bilder fra "min" side av bordet. Så send meg det for å gjøre bordet komplett - du som har.





Av en eller annen grunn: Det virker som vi er krystallbelyste;))
Må jo være en forsamling av lyse hoder, eller hva?

SCARY - PHOTO HUNT

No more Photos allowed unless I pay an unknown amount of Money

I do think Blogspot is way out of normal marketing behaviour

More scary here

Rubens Urn Interment - October 22 - 2008
Oooops -noen bilder er hulterdebulder - linja er nå på trynet langsomt 7.1 kb . Steinalder

It was a beautiful Autumn early afternoon. The Sky was blue. Sun Shining. A little breeze from the South. The temperature in Oslo to be above normal this time of year.

Still colourful leafes on the trees and on the ground. Flowers around the Graves. At Nordre Gravlund (North Graveyard). Silence. Only some whispers from the wind touching the last leafes. Whispers to the ones that have found their last rest and for those that have no chance but one day also find the eternal rest.

A very special mood. Papa and Anna arrived 1 hour before. Needed some time in Peace. To remember. To reflect. To think. To observe. To respect a person that dedicated himself and his life to the ones that needed it the most.


Something Practical - you see the person to the left?
What did he bring?

The Urne - in a Cagde - What a feeling

We know, his friends miss Ruben at least as much as we do.

The Stone - My grandma was 34 when my Father Was Born - hmmm
Here is mama

In the following is some photos from the ceremony. It was heartbraking.



We can not still believe it

Ruben is #4 in the family Grave. Should have been # 9-12.


Papa and Niklas did bring the Urn into the Hole in the Ground.

Then, all the Family and friends shuffled some soil upon the Urn. That was very emotional.

Some plantes and flowers were placed upon.
Then silence and grief and tears.

Ruben we miss you.

Forever my First Son.
PS. Paps er utrolig trett og evig trist

Found this What Your Name Means on Expat Travelers Blog: I checked out my blogname:

What Toraa Means

You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.
