NORWEGIAN KNITWEAR DESIGN

Birger Berge / Iselin Hafseld / Kari Hestnes / Linda Marveng / Arne Nerjordet / Bente Presterud / Carlos Zachrison

Norwegian Knitwear Design is a truly fabulous knitting book, featuring patterns for wonderful garments from six of our most popular knitwear designers. Arne & Carlos contribute with a beautiful and modern ladies sweater, inspired by the classic ski-sweaters of the 1950s. Linda Marveng has made an elegant and trendy sweater with a wonderfully striking braid, and a matching hat and scarf. Among Bente Presterud's contributions you'll find a mens sweater, inspired by traditional patterns, which is exciting, and uses a totally modern choice of colors. From Iselin Hafseld you get an extraordinary and unique ladies sweater with a pattern that is graphic, but nevertheless based on traditional Norwegian patterns. One of Kari Hestnes's contributions is a very special dress for weddings or parties, summery and flirtatious, and perfect for large or small occasions. Birger Berge has, in addition to a modern and beautiful mens sweater, created a pattern for his-and hers mittens inspired by Western Norway's traditional animal motifs. It's not hard to find at least one must-have item in the book!

A new perspective on autoimmune diseases
Self Help2019

A new perspective on autoimmune diseases

Erik Hexeberg / Sofie Hexeberg

Generally, patients are presented with the perception of the autoimmune diseases as being 'auto' in the sense that the body starts to attack itself without any cause and that the disease is also 'auto' in the way that the disease continues and will not be controlled unless the patient is treated with anti-inflammatory drugs. What if food proteins, both gluten and other food proteins, are identified by the body as unfamiliar to the body? Coeliac disease is often regarded as the “model disease” for autoimmune diseases. But as removal of gluten from the diet cures the patient the disease is not truly 'auto' in any sense. In this book the authors demonstrate the link between autoimmune diseases and food proteins by blood tests showing increased concentration of antibodies to specific food proteins and in parallel identifies parts of food proteins in urine samples. The authors propose a model where any food protein could elicit an immune response in a susceptible individual and thereby trigger an autoimmune disease. The dietary advice this book offers is based on this approach, and the book contains stories from people with different autoimmune diseases.

SABOTEUR - OPERATION MUSKETOON

John S. Jamtli

A dramatic war story unlike anything you've read before! We're in Northern Norway in 1942. It's a dark and cold September evening. Suddenly a submarine – Junon – rises out of the water, and twelve commandos on a sabotage mission appear. Operation Musketoon is underway. It's a very risky job. A team consisting of two Englishmen, one Canadian and two Norwegians row quietly into the fjord. Their target: the Glomfjord power station. Their guide is a young soldier from Linge-company, Sverre Granlund. This is his story. While Saboteur, John S. Jamtli's first critically acclaimed graphic novel about WW2, was a tall story based on reality, Saboteur – Operation Musketoon is the story as it really happened. But it is no less dramatic! Readers get to follow the saboteurs closely, over the mountain, through storms and fog, with the enemy hot on their heels. Based on the experiences of Sverre Granlund – who went from being a local guide in Northern Norway to carrying the whole operation on his shoulders.
