The news: “drink 14 pints a week or get dementia” – ( Source: My mate Lars , a psychiatry research manager at Aging and Health, and Nettavisen ?) #drink14beeravoiddementia

  1. The News are from Norway/GB and I am not kidding you…… (Source: here)
  2. I am educated in beer ( and I am not kidding you (nr 2) – I am a Beer Sommelier from http://beverageacademy.no/olkelner.html )
  3. Yes, you will read that 2 beers a week also is fine (but that is not a good headline is it….)

The news:

A new and comprehensive study published in the British journal British Medical Journal (BMJ) shows that your alcohol intake can affect the risk of developing dementia – and that not only is too high an alcohol intake that can increase the risk of dementia, but that no (zero) alcohol can have the same effect.

My volume of kilometers of cycling, running and walking during 2019

Training and activity 2019:

I have now analyzed my walking, cycling and running figures from last year and I am now making a battle plan.

A battle plan for how I can increase the number of kilometers, increase the number with training sessions, and most importantly how to beat my best mate Lars in 100% of all the above in 2020.

( The main goal is to be 99 years old, walk, talk and have a pint on Saturdays…)

Here are my numbers for 2019:

The whole shabang (run, walk, cycling):

The running:

The walking:

Old boats will be nano plastic and the first scientists quietly whisper about nano plastic penetration into a species called homo sapiens

I took this photos this week. I have 100 more.

Boat wreckage with “no owner” is a growing problem in the fjord of Oslo and I work 50% for www.oslofjorden.org

Ca 150 boats found floating / half-floating last year and the number of boats on the bootom of the Oslofjord is said to be ca 1500 ( numbers from divers and pro partners ) Read More

What the King of Norway said about life, you and me, and suicide…

King Harald just spoke about it. He just lost his friend in suicide. He could have done the standard formal condolences, but he did not. He used TV to talk about it with the energy of a mentor, father, and King.

Five million Norwegians have seen his friend and he became our friend on TV.  Hip energy,  warm, one of the most smiling, joking, glowing person you see on the screen,  a father, a poet, and a great spark of life and light – if you sit on the outside and dont know his feelings…

His name is and was Ari Behn and he has left us.

I have also lost a mate to suicide, and a family member of mine have tried many times. I also had a cup of coofee with Ari Behn and I do remember  that he had a extra level of  charisma and that he sounded like a river of life….  – so I was listening carefully when our King hold a speech on New Years eve.

One of his fine quotes was:

” be there for each other, see each other, remember to give each other the good words, and carry each other if needed”

King Harald of Norway.

I will print that quote and hang it on the wall.
