On Wednesday, April 1, 2015, the ex- hibit, “Brooklyn/Norway: A Visual Interpre- tation,” opened at the Danish Athletic Club. It is the first known exhibit that the Danish Club has held in its over 120-year history. This exhibit focused on the perceptions locals from Brooklyn and Norway have about the other, whether realistic, mythologi- cal, or somewhere in between. Both places serve as symbols of exotica, but for differ- ent reasons. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines exotica as “things excitingly differ- ent or unusual.” Today, Brooklyn epitomizes hip or cool worldwide, whether warranted or not. Meanwhile Norway remains a place of Caucasian exotica, unknown by most due to its geographic distance from much of the world and its small population, (a little over five million today). Scandinavian artists who reside in the New York area were asked to submit piec- es that exemplify their view of Brooklyn. Brooklyn artists were asked to submit a visu- al interpretation of Norway.

    . .MINUTES. OF THE ♦ Twenty-Fifth Convention OF THE GENERAL COUNCIL OF THE Evangelical Lutheran Church in North America, HELD IN St. John’s Church, Easton, Pa., OCTOBER 9-15, A. D. 1895. MILWAUKEE: King-Fowle-McGee Co., Printers. 1895. The City of Easton, Pa., is situated at the confluence of the Le¬ high and Delaware rivers. It has a population of about fifteen thou¬ sand, and there are as many more in the adjoining towns of South Easton, Pa., and Phillipsburg, N. J. In these communities there are nine Lutheran Churches—English and German—of which the oldest is St. John’s, Easton. Organized in 1740 as a German Church, St. John’s became entirely English, when, in 1872, Zion’s German Church was established. St. John’s owns a venerable Church building, on Ferry street, near Fourth. It has also a model Sunday-school building, or chapel. It is the strongest Lutheran parish in the city. Half a block away is Christ Church, and at Eleventh and Ferry, St. Luke’s, both English churches. These congregations, in conjunction with St. Paul’s, South Eas¬ ton, and Grace and St. John’s, Phillipsburg, N. J., united in enter¬ taining the General Council. They are all connected with the Allen¬ town Conference of the Ministerium of Pennsylvania. The lower Lehigh Valley, with its rich agricultural counties and numerous manufacturing cities, such as Bethlehem, Allentown and Catasauqua, is a Lutheran stronghold. MINUTES. OPENING SERVICE.

    Team Norway - Winner of Bocuse d'Or, Tallinn 2020 - Photo: Jonas Haar Friestad Oct 26, 2020 13:17 CET Norway – the most awarded country in Bocuse d’Or Reigning champion Norway defended their European title when Christian André Pettersen secured the gold medal in the European final in Bocuse d’Or that was held in Tallinn, Estonia, on Friday, October 16. Bocuse d’Or Europe has been arranged seven times and Norway has reached the podium on each occasion. Pettersen and his team presented creations featuring delicacies like smoked quail, potato ravioli and crayfish sauce. Over 300.000 people watched the live stream of the event from Tallinn, proving once again the huge interest for this prestigious competition. Team Norway is now ready for the 2021 "World Championships for chefs" at Bocuse d'Or in Lyon. Last year, for the 2019 Bocuse d’Or, Pettersen was awarded the bronze medal for his delicate and surprising flavours from the Arctic. A culinary revolution has taken place in Norway in recent years, led by a wave of innovative Norwegian master chefs like Pettersen. Every other year, 24 of the most promising chefs in the world meet in Lyon in France to participate in the world’s most prestigious culinary competition. Since the competition was first held in 1987, Norway has won five gold, three silver and three bronze medals, making Norway the country with the most Bocuse d’Or awards. CEO of The Norwegian Gastronomy Foundation Mr. Arne Sørvig says: "Team Norway has won most podiums of all countries in Bocuse d’Or since its inception in 1987.

I den nyliberalistiske retorikken blir forbrukerne hele tiden oppfordret til å handle sunne, naturlige, økologiske, etiske produkter, samt å unngå billig, masseprodusert mat (hvor gjerne sukker, fett og salt er hovedingredienser). Det er ikke bare ansett som dårlig for kroppen, men også for våre omgivelser. Gjennom media, ekspertuttalelser, helse-/miljø- kampanjer, produktlanseringer, reklame, dietter osv. blir også forbrukerne hele tiden eksponert for en rekke ulike og ofte motstridende teorier og oppfatninger om hva som er rett og galt. En konsekvens av dette syners å være at forbrukernes forhold til mat er blitt mer anstrengt. Dette kommer blant annet til uttrykk ved at listene over nei-ingredienser og nei-mat har blitt stadig lengre.
