Boken "A novel Sight - The Restauration Sails to Amerika" er skrevet på engelsk.«A Novel Sight» er overskriften på den kanskje mest kjente avisartikkelen som noen gang er skrevet om norsk innvandring til USA. Artikkelen ble publisert i New York City i uken 10.-14. oktober 1825, og var viet de 52 menn, kvinner og barn som den sommeren hadde seilt fra Norge til Amerika i det lille skipet Restauration. Denne reisen blir ofte sett på som begynnelsen på den norske utvandringen til oversjøiske land. Den har fått et islett av en legendarisk norrøn saga, spesielt blant norskamerikanere. Faktisk har emigrantene som seilte i Restauration fått et definerende navn avledet av fartøyet deres, et navn som er kjent i all senere historie. De – og bare de – kalles «Sluppefolket». I ettertid er det blitt skrevet utallige artikler, hefter, akademiske monografier og populærvitenskapelige verk om denne gruppen og deres reise. Av denne grunn vil den følgende boken ikke diskutere Sluppefolket i den større konteksten av norsk emigrasjon til Amerika. Den vil heller behandle selve reisen, sett i lys av det som måtte til, hvis et fartøy skulle seile fra Europa til Amerika via Madeira på 1820-tallet; og så langt det er mulig vil fortellingen være basert på samtidsdokumentasjon fra det tidlige 1800-tallet. Kort sagt, hvis den nedarvede historien om Sluppefolket og Restauration kan ses som en form for episk drama, så kan denne boken forstås som et forsøk på å frembringe noen av fakta bak eposet.A new book concerning the voyage of the Norwegian sloop Restauration in 1825, published on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Norwegian emigration to North America.Hardbound, 196 pages, 75 color illustrations. “A Novel Sight” is the title of perhaps the most famous newspaper article ever written about Norwegian immigration into the United States. The article was published in New York City during the week of October 10-14, 1825, and was devoted to the 52 men, women, and children who that summer had sailed from Norway to America in the little ship Restauration. This voyage is often regarded as the beginning of Norwegian overseas emigration. It has taken on aspects of a legendary Norse saga, especially among Norwegian Americans. Indeed, the emigrants who sailed in the Restaurationhave been given a defining name derived from their vessel, a name by which they are known to all later history. They–and only they–are called The Sloopers. Since then, innumerable articles, pamphlets, academic monographs and works of popular literature have been written about this group and their voyage. For this reason, the following book will not discuss the Sloopers in the greater context of Norwegian emigration to America. Rather, this book examines the voyage itself, within the context of a vessel sailing from Europe to America by way of Madeira in the 1820’s; and insofar as it is possible, it will be based on contemporary documentation from the early 1800’s. In short, if the tale of the Sloopers and the Restauration that has been passed down to the present is seen as a form of epic drama, then this book may be seen as an attempt to discover some of the facts behind the epic.
A Primer on Environmental Decision-Making

A Primer on Environmental Decision-Making

This book integrates decision-making and environmental science. For ecologists it will bridge the gap to economics. For practitioners in environmental economics and management it will be a major reference book. It probably contains the largest collection available of expressions and basic equations that are used in environmental sciences. Applying these expressions as "rules-of-thumb" will give participants in a decision-making process a common platform for discussion and arbitration. To make the text comfortable to read, the book is organized in disciplines, but it also includes 13 applications that draw on all subjects in the book, and where cross-references are extensively used. The applications that range from siting of paper mills to wilderness management show how a range of topics in economics, social sciences and ecology are interrelated when decisions have to be made. The third chapter is called "Getting started". It shows how to carry out a complete environmental screening study in one day, much like the computer manuals that get you going from the first day. We believe that raising a platform for environmental decision-making puts issues into their right perspective, it is fun, and it lets an individual contribute to society’s understanding of the environment in a very short while.
Between God and the Sultan: A History of Islamic Law

Between God and the Sultan: A History of Islamic Law

Knut S. Vikør

Oxford University Press
2006
nidottu
The contrast between religion and law has been continuous throughout Muslim history. Islamic law has always existed in a tension between these two forces: God, who gave the law, and the state--the sultan--representing society and implementing the law. This tension and dynamic have created a very particular history for the law--in how it was formulated and by whom, in its theoretical basis and its actual rules, and in how it was practiced in historical reality from the time of its formation until today. That is the main theme of this book. Knut S. Vikor introduces the development and practice of Islamic law to a wide readership: students, lawyers, and the growing number of those interested in Islamic civilization. He summarizes the main concepts of Islamic jurisprudence; discusses debates concerning the historicity of Islamic sources of dogma and the dating of early Islamic law; describes the classic practice of the law, in the formulation and elaboration of legal rules and practice in the courts; and sets out various substantive legal rules, on such vital matters as the family and economic activity.

Interest and Prices (Large Print Edition): A Study of the Causes Regulating the Value of Money
LARGE PRINT EDITION More at LargePrintLiberty.com.It was this work by Swedish economist Wicksell that drew the attention of Ludwig von Mises to the effects of interest rate manipulation on the capital structure. This was the first to present the idea of the natural rate of interest, which Wicksell argued can be different from the prevailing rate on the market. The natural rate is equal to the return on capital in an imaginary economy without money. Mises took that idea and made it a central component of his business cycle theory. Wicksell was also an important critic of the Quantity Theory of money.
"The Human Pathway": "Find the Truth!" A guide to cosmic and spiritual elightenment that will transform humanity from "unconsciousness" to
Jim Knut Larsson establishes that the foundation for freewill, meaning and purpose is anchored in the latest findings in quantum mechanics and cosmology-empowering us to create the future. The Human Pathway is destined to become the catalyst for a transformation in politics, justice, government, economics and spiritualism. What choices does humanity need to make now, in order to avoid destruction? What goals can we set up to maximize meaning and purpose both for the individual and also for all of humanity? The Human Pathway might be the most important, inspiring and interesting book you will ever read. Our future depends upon your participation Also included as an addendum: "What to do in case of arrest " It could save your life or ... someone close to you A must read Some more questions ... What is "enlightenment"? Why the earth created humans? What would be the ultimate goals for humanity? How can you unleash your creative powers and create your own future? Why every act, movement and thought is a manifestation of freewill and why it affects the evolution of the universe? Why the living standard in the US declines daily? Why there are more than 3 million people in jail and more than 50 million with a criminal record? People in America always talk about "they". "Back then, 'they' castrated people who were homosexuals. "They" had strict laws against sodomy." They" did radiation experiments on the population. The question is; who are "they"? Revelation: Does it matter if you are resurrected at some point in the future? It is your desire to know the "truth" that drives your desire for resurrection. You will live forever as long as humanity-or if human intelligence lives on forever-because what is living, even if your ego is dead, is you being one with humanity. Individuals only manifest by their "clinging" to their egos. This "clinging" prevents you from becoming creative, happy and blissful. If you get rid of your ego, which should be everybody's goal, you will dedicate yourself to the eternal "now" and to serve humanity. A great quest is to help humanity reach its highest potential and to achieve "absolute" knowledge, "finish" the creation of the universe and acquire the power to recreate everything that existed forever. Then, at that point, you will be resurrected However there is a final revelation and, if it is revealed to you, it will give you "absolute" knowledge and peace. This final revelation is the logical conclusion of this book. Understand what is written and the truth will be revealed to you. When it is, you will understand that it cannot be directly communicated and understood by others unless they have the same revelation You will know that you have the final knowledge when you get the revelation and you don't need to seek validation for it However, you want to share it with others Study the revelations in this book and hopefully you will get it. You will know it when you do. We need to dismantle many laws and make society free again. We must get the government out of our lives. The benefit you get from reading my book is that you will be able to see through the myths. When you read my book, you will become an enlightened person. Actually after you read this book you will say, "I'm enlightened now". You will have revelations that will make you enjoy life more and become a happier person, but also you will no longer be seduced by propaganda. This, in the end, is a book of cosmic and spiritual enlightenment and enlightenment with regard to politics, economics and justice. What does it mean to be an enlightened person who helps secure the future prosperity and excitement of living for yourself and for humanity as a whole? Another bonus from this book is that you may no longer fear death. You will become a participant in the conversation and the future goals and aspirations of humanity.

You think you have a winning strategy. But do you? Executives are bombarded with bestselling ideas and best practices for achieving competitive advantage, but many of these ideas and practices contradict each other. Should you aim to be big or fast? Should you create a blue ocean, be adaptive, play to win--or forget about a sustainable competitive advantage altogether? In a business environment that is changing faster and becoming more uncertain and complex almost by the day, it's never been more important--or more difficult--to choose the right approach to strategy. In this book, The Boston Consulting Group's Martin Reeves, Knut Haanaes, and Janmejaya Sinha offer a proven method to determine the strategy approach that is best for your company. They start by helping you assess your business environment--how unpredictable it is, how much power you have to change it, and how harsh it is--a critical component of getting strategy right. They show how existing strategy approaches sort into five categories--Be Big, Be Fast, Be First, Be the Orchestrator, or simply Be Viable--depending on the extent of predictability, malleability, and harshness. In-depth explanations of each of these approaches will provide critical insight to help you match your approach to strategy to your environment, determine when and how to execute each one, and avoid a potentially fatal mismatch. Addressing your most pressing strategic challenges, you'll be able to answer questions such as: * What replaces planning when the annual cycle is obsolete? * When can we--and when should we--shape the game to our advantage? * How do we simultaneously implement different strategic approaches for different business units? * How do we manage the inherent contradictions in formulating and executing different strategies across multiple businesses and geographies? Until now, no book brings it all together and offers a practical tool for understanding which strategic approach to apply. Get started today.

Dressage Training for Professional Horse Lovers: A scientific approach to dressage training that emphasizes the horse's physical and mental well-being
Dressage training: Background and Tips All riders, whether competing or riding for pleasure, want to have a tractable, relaxed and motivated horse when they are ready to get into the saddle. This depends primarily on the riders' understanding of training and training methods. The more riders know about their horse's physiology and psyche, the better their understanding of these training methods. By following the practical advice in this book, riders will be able to achieve their desired training goals most efficiently, while at the same time handling their horses gently and keeping them physically and mentally sound. The authors: Knut Kr ger learned the correct and gentle method of training dressage horses from Paul Stecken, who emphasized the importance of repeatedly riding young and even older horses in a lengthening position. Paul Stecken had a training system for older horses that slowly and systematically prepared them for correct collection by teaching them to bend the haunches and raise the forehand. Knut Kr ger works with the training scale to teach horses the principles of rhythm, relaxation, impulsion, etc. and keep them healthy in mind and body while doing so. He also takes horses that have suffered under severe training methods and guides them to recovery. Prof. Dr. Konstanze Kr ger studied veterinary medicine, has been riding since she was young and was active in 3-day eventing. From 2005 - 2012 she worked on the social behavior and mental abilities of horses for the Zoological Institute at the University of Regensburg. Since 2012 she has been working at the Applied University of N rtingen as a professor for equine behavior. Further Information can be found on her website equine-behaviour.de and in Wikipedia. In this book, Prof. Dr. Konstanze Kr ger gives a clear description of the medical basis for her training methods and how to use them. Together the Kruegers managed a riding school near Regensburg (Bavaria) from 1999 to 2005, and the experience they gained there, plus their veterinary and equitation backgrounds, has culminated in many practical training tips that they have included in this book. A "must" for riders who want to exercise and train their horses for dressage. "This book is also used as a training manual for the state-run driving school in Austria and is recommended reading for drivers and riders. "

Liberalizing European Energy Markets

The vital importance of energy and the challenges associated with it necessitate the efficient structuring of energy markets and well-designed policies. This book presents an economic analysis of the main effects of liberalizing the electricity and natural gas markets across Western Europe. It is based on a state-of-the art detailed numerical simulation model that takes account of the interlinkages between different energy markets. Short-run and long-run effects are identified and the robustness of results is tested. Separate chapters discuss climate policy, renewable energy and the role of Russia. A key finding is that liberalization lowers energy prices and increases consumption, particularly in the electricity markets where prices fall by 25 per cent on average in the short run. Effects are somewhat stronger in the long run, as investment options are utilized. The welfare benefits of liberalization are considerable in the long run. However, liberalization increases emissions of CO2. The welfare costs of fulfilling Western Europe's Kyoto obligations depend highly on the policies implemented, but are at least as large as the benefits of liberalization.This book centres on the effects of the liberalization of European energy markets, given that the liberalization process proceeds as the EU has proposed it. The process thus far has been slow, not least because of considerable resistance from key agents in the market, and the final outcome is not clear.Graduate students and researchers in energy economics, numerical economic modeling and operational research will warmly welcome Liberalizing European Energy Markets. It will also appeal to both energy policymakers and management in the energy industries of Europe.

DUS - Den unge scenen ble startet i 2004 etter en modell fra Connections i England, der National Theatre i London spiller en ledende rolle på samme måte som Det Norske Teatret gjør i Norge. DUS har til nå utviklet 21 nye scenetekster for ungdom og fi re prosjektrunder er gjennomført. De fire første tekstene ble utgitt på Transit i 2005, så fulgte elleve tekster i 2009 fra rundene to og tre. Denne boka inneholder de seks tekstene fra runde fi re. DUS vokser stadig i utbredelse og er snart landsdekkende. At det i fjerde runde har vært sytti produksjoner overstiger alle forventninger. Kjernen i DUS-prosjektet er tekstene, tekster som handler om ungdom og som ungdom kan uttrykke seg scenisk gjennom, tekster som fanger et språk som ungdom kan forstå og som de kan identifi sere seg med. Tekster som inspirerer og utfordrer, tekster som lever midt i samtiden! Inneholder: Om du kunne av NINA A.M.

Vad sysslar de med, de gammaltestamentliga exegeterna i Sverige? Undervisar förstås, men vad mer? Vad forskar de om? i den här boken får du en del svar på den frågan. Den började som en konferensdag till LarsOlov Erikssons ära, när han efter en lång tjänstgöring slutade som lektor i gamla testamentets exegetik vid Johannelunds teologiska högskola. Därför finns också några internationella forskarbidrag med, men de flesta är svenska. De som har huvudansvar för gamla testamentet vid universitet och högskolor i Sverige fick en fråga om de vill bidra och de flesta svarade ja. Därför presenteras här svensk bibelforskning i dag, begränsat till gamla testamentet. Flera bidrag känner vi igen som traditionella forskningsämnen inom gamla testamentet, analyser av enskilda texter och fördjupningar i enskilda ämnen. Men det finns också mycket nytt. Nya metodiska grepp, hermeneutiska diskussioner, berättelseanalyser, receptionshis­ toriska framställningar, kulturrelaterade undersökningar m.m. till och med en presentation av kung David i filmens värld och läsningar av Tomas Tranströmers dikter. Resultaten visar på en mycket stor mångfald. Den som vill veta mera om gammaltestamentlig forskning i dag har här en guldgruva. Nya insikter, nya metoder, nya former av exegetik i dag i Sverige.

Med to skriftspråk, samt samisk og kvensk, har Noreg ein lang tradisjon som fleirspråksland. I nyare tid har dette blitt forsterka gjennom innvandring og utviding av internasjonale relasjonar, og det siste tiåret har om lag 200 språk vore i bruk i Noreg. Dokumentarprosjektet Det fleirspråklege Noreg viser eit samtidsbilete av språkbruken i den norske kvardagen. Gjennom 30 portrett gir boka eit innblikk i det fleirkulturelle Noreg og viser at fleirspråklegheit i dag heller er regel enn unnatak. Skribentar over heile landet har fanga inn livshistorier og refleksjonar rundt det å leve med fleire språk. Fotografen Oddleiv Apneseths unike og vake blikk gir liv til dei varierte historiene. Kombinasjonane er mangfaldige: Den filippinske asiabutikkeigaren i Førde brukar morsmålet berre når ho verkeleg må. Den marokkanske faren snakkar konsekvent berbisk med sonen sin under fotballtreninga, medan han samstundes snakkar norsk til dei andre barna. Og vi møter den samisk-kvenske tromsværingen som først i vaksen alder lærde å forstå språka som ho var omgitt av i oppveksten. Den faglitterære teksten av språkforskar Øystein A. Vangsnes set dokumentarprosjektet i eit større perspektiv.
