ABSTRACT THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 by Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Adviser: Jerry Moon ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 Name of researcher: Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Name and degree of faculty adviser: Jerry Moon, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2010 This dissertation reconstructs chronologically the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Norway from the Haugian Pietist revival in the early 1800s to the establishment of the first Seventh-day Adventist Conference in Norway in 1887. The present study has been based as far as possible on primary sources such as protocols, letters, legal documents, and articles in journals, magazines, and newspapers from the nineteenth century. A contextual-comparative approach was employed to evaluate the objectivity of a given source. Secondary sources have also been consulted for interpretation and as corroborating evidence, especially when no primary sources were available. The study concludes that the Pietist revival ignited by the Norwegian Lutheran lay preacher, Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771-1824), represented the culmination of the sixteenth- century Reformation in Norway, and the forerunner of the Adventist movement in that country.

    Friends of the Newport Ship Registered Charity No 1105449 www.newportship.org ____________ ____________________________ Rumours galore Uncertainties breed rumours, and the uncertainty over the future of the Ship is no exception. The most bizarre recent rumour came from a member of the public on a phone-in programme, saying that the Ship had been sold to Canada. Where did that idea come from? Newport City Council's chief rumour-destroyer, Mike Lewis, put the record straight in our October meeting at Malpas Court. Nearly 60 members turned up for this, a fascinating talk on medieval shipping and our AGM. In the last year, our understanding of the Ship has grown immensely as a result of the specialist investigations and work on the hull shape. Conservation continues, but freeze drying of the timbers may take a further 3-4 years, much longer than predicted. However, next Autumn the Project will have to vacate its current premises, so what happens then? York Archaeological Trust is responsible for the freeze drying, so the freeze drier will be taken up to York and the timbers taken up there in batches and then brought back. In the meantime, Newport Council is looking for a building in which the both the fully-conserved timbers and those in the queue for the freeze drier can be stored. The conserved timbers don't require a vast amount of room, but for a year or two there will need to be enough space for two of the tanks currently in the warehouse. The Council would like to find a building which is accessible to the public, and ideally in the city centre, so that the Friends can run it as a museum for the next few years.

Hovedutvalg for næring, miljø og kommunalteknikk behandlet høringen i møte 12.10.2017 sak 74/17. Vedtak Hovedutvalg for næring, miljø og kommunalteknikk – 12.10.2017: «Generelt: Nore og Uvdal kommune stiller spørsmålstegn ved den strukturdrivende landbrukspolitikken som har blitt ført de siste årene, spesielt i forhold til at driftsbygninger bør ha tilstrekkelig arealgrunnlag. Det foreslåtte forbudet mot nydyrking av myr passer ikke inn i denne sammenhengen. Det påpekes også at den samfunnsøkonomiske besparelsen ved et slikt forbud bare er på kr 1 million for hele landet, og at dette er lite i forhold til den ulempen enkelte gårdbrukere får. Det meste av det dyrkbare arealet, inkludert dyrkbar myr, ligger i klimasoner som uansett ikke egner seg for kornproduksjon. Et forbud mot nydyrking av myr vil derfor i stor grad få negativ betydning for husdyrholdet og matproduksjonen i Norge. Dette momentet bør fremstilles bedre når Stortingsproposisjonen skal utarbeides. Jordlova: § 11 Drift av jordbruksareal, nydyrking og driftsvegar Ingen merknad. Nydyrkingsforskrifta: § 1 Formål Det vil være uheldig at § 3 fjerde ledd annet punktum om adkomst til bakenforliggende areal, ikke videreføres etter denne flyttingen. Dette er et viktig moment i vurderingen av søknader om godkjenning av plan for nydyrking, for å hindre at eksisterende ferdselsveier og større stier blir avskåret av innmark.

  • Childhood Comes but Once National Strategy to Combat Violence and Sexual Abuse Against Children and Youth (2014–2017)
    Strategy Childhood comes but once National strategy to combat violence and sexual abuse against children and youth (2014–2017) Strategy Childhood comes but once National strategy to combat violence and sexual abuse against children and youth (2014–2017) 4 FOREWORD As a society, Norway has come a long way in its efforts to protect children and adolescents from violence, sexual abuse and bullying. The progress we have achieved is attributable to policy decisions, legislation, increased knowledge, public discussion, media attention and the work of professionals, parents and children themselves. We do not permit parents to harm their children, and we express collective grief and alarm when we hear of children exposed to serious abuse. To the vast majority of parents in Norway, nothing is more important than the well-being of children. All the same, violence and sexual abuse, whether in the family or elsewhere, are a part of daily life for many children. Extensive research shows how consequential violence may be, whether it is directed at a parent or the child itself, and whether it takes the form of direct physical violence, sexual abuse or bullying. Violence can lead to extensive cognitive, social, psychological and physical problems in both the short and long term. Violence against children and adolescents is a public health challenge. The approach to violence and sexual abuse against children in Norwegian society must be one of zero tolerance. We want safety and security for all children, enabling them to enjoy good health and a good quality of life as they grow. Taboos must be broken.

  • The South Polar Race Medal
    The South Polar Race Medal Created by Danuta Solowiej The way to the South Pole / Sydpolen. Roald Amundsen’s track is in Red and Captain Scott’s track is in Green. The South Polar Race Medal Roald Amundsen and his team reaching the Sydpolen on 14 Desember 1911. (Obverse) Captain R. F. Scott, RN and his team reaching the South Pole on 17 January 1912. (Reverse) Created by Danuta Solowiej Published by Sim Comfort Associates 29 March 2012 Background The 100th anniversary of man’s first attainment of the South Pole recalls a story of two iron-willed explorers committed to their final race for the ultimate prize, which resulted in both triumph and tragedy. In July 1895, the International Geographical Congress met in Lon- don and opened Antarctica’s portal by deciding that the southern- most continent would become the primary focus of new explora- tion. Indeed, Antarctica is the only such land mass in our world where man has ventured and not found man. Up until that time, no one had explored the hinterland of the frozen continent, and even the vast majority of its coastline was still unknown. The meet- ing touched off a flurry of activity, and soon thereafter national expeditions and private ventures started organizing: the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration had begun, and the attainment of the South Pole became the pinnacle of that age. Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen (1872-1928) nurtured at an early age a strong desire to be an explorer in his snowy Norwegian surroundings, and later sailed on an Arctic sealing voyage.
