 
Picture in rerun: Peasents off from work
Skansen open-air museum
At first the man in the picture was standing on the right side in the picture. I shouted to them all that it was such a ugly hole ("cross") in the wall behind them and that it was "screaming in my viewfinder". I meant that it was a disturbing element in the picture. Then the man shouted back that I could fix that in "Photoshop". Then I said I would rater not and that I didn' have Photoshop. Then he immediately ran around the women and placed himself against the wall to cover up for the hole. He shouted: "Well then, let's do it manualy!" Haha! Funny guy. Quick and helpful. Please, I want to see more of this behavior in the society.
Click!.....And thanks :)
View Larger On Black
Skansen is the oldest open-air museum in the world, founded in 1891. Skansen is also a zoological park. It is located on the island of Djurgården, a royal park near the centre of Stockholm. Skansen is open every day of the year, even on Christmas Eve!
Autumn Fair
The Autumn Fair is held at Skansen on the last weekend in September each year. Tradition claims that Michaelmas fairs used to be held all over Sweden. People traded craft wares, household necessities and farm animals. At Skansen the Autumn Fair is an annual fixture at which you will meet tavern waitresses, stable-lads, farmers and smallholders bringing this year’s produce to market. The fair is organized by Skansen’s Village Institute and it provides a taste of life at a country fair in the old days.
Among the items on sale are textiles, woodcrafts, household utensils, dyes, handmade ropes, toys, vegetables, candy, goat’s cheese, bread and buns, jams and cordials.
For hungry adults there is traditional pea soup washed down with warm schnapps. Swedish potato dumplings suit the whole family and there are fresh fish from the archipelago. You can enjoy traditional music performed on the harmonica, watch the dancing at the crossroads or learn about ancient pastimes, some of them pretty vigorous like tug of war and wrestling. Try keeping your balance on the “greasy pole” and get rid of those aggressions by breaking some china.

Open this year (2008) on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 September.

and very, very needed invention – for milllions and millions of people!!
What is SOLVATTEN?
SOLVATTEN makes unsafe water drinkable by using solar energy. The portable 10 liter container is a patented and scientifically approved Swedish invention. Put SOLVATTEN in a sunny place, give it 3-4 hours and the water will be drinkable! An indicator will show when it is safe to drink.
The SOLVATTEN system
It is common knowledge that boiling can make water safe to drink. But it is not as widely known that UV light also kills micro-organisms. SOLVATTEN is a specially designed container that uses heat, UV and a built-in filter to clean contaminated water. SOLVATTEN can improve the daily lives of millions of people.

Waiting vs taking action
Picture of a computor screen. Originaly this is a video...
Click here to make the hand move
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"To act wisely when the time for action comes, to wait patiently
when it is time for repose, put man in accord with the tides.
Ignorance of this law results in periods of unreasoning
enthusiasm on the one hand, and depression on the other."
~Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment
before starting to improve the world."
~Anne Frank
"Intuition is the direct perception of a truth or fact without
going first through any reasoning process...To become more
intuitive, slow down, ask, wait, look for a response."
~Christina Baldwin
"Trust your hunches...Hunches are usually based on facts filed
away just below the conscious level. Warning! Do not confuse
your hunches with wishful thinking. This is the road to disaster."
~Dr. Joyce Brothers
"Optimism doesn't wait on facts. It deals with prospects.
Pessimism is a waste of time."
~Norman Cousins
"Many people are waiting for prosperity. It cannot come in the
future. When you honor, acknowledge, and fully accept your
present reality - where you are, who you are, what you are
doing right now - when you fully accept what you have got,
you are grateful for what you have got, grateful for what is,
grateful for Being. Gratitude for the present moment and
the fullness of life now is true prosperity. It cannot come
in the future. Then, in time, that prosperity manifests for
you in various ways."
~Eckart Tolle in The Power of Now
