Easter Tradition 7 Samuelsen trip 7-8 Before we get into this year’s goals, let me introduce myself for those of you I haven’t had the chance to meet. My name is Tim Lisko, I’m an adjunct professor of Photography at Franklin President College, and your new lodge President. Tim Lisko What that means for me is that I have a lot of learning to do. It’s going to be my job during Vice President Dagrun Bennett these next few months and for the duration of my term to glean as much as I can from the experience and wisdom of past presidents, board members and, of course, the long-time Secretary membership. Nancy Andersen Treasurer What I’d like to do this year with the support and approval of the board and general Burt Bittner membership is to take what we do best -- getting together as a community of people who love the Social Co-directors culture, history and people of Norway -- and use it to get the word out to anybody else who’d fit Mike Jacobs right in. Kathleen Krueger Foundation Director In the immediate future, that means several things, including expanding into social media with Jean Tygum an interactive Facebook page where members can share Norway- or lodge-related photos, recipes, links to TV programs and any interesting odds and ends. For any of you who might be a little Cultural Director Karen Courtney behind in the technology, I’d like to have a short course or two in the basics of using the website, so that you won’t miss out.* Youth and Sports Director John Bennett I’m looking forward to working, eating and learning with you all, Counselor Tim Lisko Bob Sorensen Editor and Membership *And so you can check in on the grandkids.

  • Le Traitement Médiatique Des Sports D'hiver : Approche Comparée France/Pays Scandinaves
    ÉCOLE DU JOURNALISME Mastère 2 Journalisme Sportif *** LE TRAITEMENT MÉDIATIQUE DES SPORTS D’HIVER : APPROCHE COMPARÉE FRANCE/PAYS SCANDINAVES Mémoire présenté et soutenu par M. Florian Burgaud *** Année universitaire 2019/2020 REMERCIEMENTS Je remercie chaleureusement Christophe Colette qui m’a aiguillé pendant mes recherches. Je remercie aussi toutes les personnes qui m’ont aidé, de près ou de loin, pour la rédaction de ce mémoire. Un immense merci aux journalistes et aux autres personnes qui ont accepté de répondre à mes questions, à mes interrogations sur le traitement médiatique des sports d’hiver en France et dans les pays scandinaves. Un grand merci, donc, à tous : Nils Christian Mangelrød, Marcus Lindqvist, Viljam Brodahl, Jean-Pierre Bidet, Marc Ventouillac, Franck Lacroix, Sverker Sörlin et Nicolas Mayer. Merci aussi à Arne Idland pour son aide sur le Blink Festival. Merci à tous pour la confiance que vous m’avez accordée. Merci, enfin, à l’École Du Journalisme de Nice de m’avoir permis d’écrire ce mémoire sur un sujet s’insérant parfaitement dans mon projet professionnel. 1 RÉSUMÉ Lors de chaque édition des Jeux olympiques d’hiver, les audiences mesurées par Médiamétrie sont incroyablement élevées – jusqu’à 16 millions de personnes en 1992 pour le programme court féminin de patinage artistique. En partant du constat que les Français aiment les sports d’hiver mais qu’ils sont quasiment invisibles dans le paysage médiatique, à part le biathlon depuis quelques années, nous avons réalisé une approche comparée avec le traitement que les médias scandinaves font des sports d’hiver. Là-bas, les fondeurs et les hockeyeurs, notamment, sont de véritables stars traquées par les journalistes et les sports blancs font la une des journaux toute l’année.

  • Nasjonsrelaterte Stedsnavn På Svalbard Hvilke Nasjoner Har Satt Flest Spor Etter Seg? NOR-3920
    Nasjonsrelaterte stedsnavn på Svalbard Hvilke nasjoner har satt flest spor etter seg? NOR-3920 Oddvar M. Ulvang Mastergradsoppgave i nordisk språkvitenskap Fakultet for humaniora, samfunnsvitenskap og lærerutdanning Institutt for språkvitenskap Universitetet i Tromsø Høsten 2012 Forord I mitt tidligere liv tilbragte jeg to år som radiotelegrafist (1964-66) og ett år som stasjonssjef (1975-76) ved Isfjord Radio1 på Kapp Linné. Dette er nok bakgrunnen for at jeg valgte å skrive en masteroppgave om stedsnavn på Svalbard. Seks delemner har utgjort halve mastergradsstudiet, og noen av disse førte meg tilbake til arktiske strøk. En semesteroppgave omhandlet Norske skipsnavn2, der noen av navna var av polarskuter. En annen omhandlet Språkmøte på Svalbard3, en sosiolingvistisk studie fra Longyearbyen. Den førte meg tilbake til øygruppen, om ikke fysisk så i hvert fall mentalt. Det samme har denne masteroppgaven gjort. Jeg har også vært student ved Universitetet i Tromsø tidligere. Jeg tok min cand. philol.-grad ved Institutt for historie høsten 2000 med hovedfagsoppgaven Telekommunikasjoner på Spitsbergen 1911-1935. Jeg vil takke veilederen min, professor Gulbrand Alhaug for den flotte oppfølgingen gjennom hele prosessen med denne masteroppgaven om stedsnavn på Svalbard. Han var også min foreleser og veileder da jeg tok mellomfagstillegget i nordisk språk med oppgaven Frå Amarius til Pardis. Manns- og kvinnenavn i Alstahaug og Stamnes 1850-1900.4 Jeg takker også alle andre som på en eller annen måte har hjulpet meg i denne prosessen. Dette gjelder bl.a. Norsk Polarinstitutt, som velvillig lot meg bruke deres database med stedsnavn på Svalbard, men ikke minst vil jeg takke min kjære Anne-Marie for hennes tålmodighet gjennom hele prosessen.
