  • Foreign Submarine
    Foreign submarine A serious political conflict between Sweden and the Soviet Union, in which a Lund physicist played an active role. Foreign submarine 426 427 Foreign submarine in Swedish archipelago On the evening of 28 October 1981 the front pages of the newspapers were filled with a surprising piece of news. A Soviet submarine on a secret mission had run aground on a rock in Blekinge archipelago. It was well inside a restricted military area and not far from Karlskrona naval base. Heightened state of alert Swedish military units from the navy and coastal rangers, among others, were assembled in the area over the following days. A large area was cordoned off. Helicopters and fighter aircraft patrolled the airspace and Swedish submarines were stationed underwater along the limit of territorial waters. The naval ship Thule was stationed as a barrier in the strait out towards open water. Foreign submarine 428 429 In all probability armed In an extra edition of the television news pro- gramme Aktuellt, a week after the grounding, Prime Minister Torbjörn Fälldin revealed that the submarine: ”… in all probability …” was armed with nuclear weapons. Political activity in Sweden and internationally was great. This was world news! Dagens Nyheter, 6 November 1981. The day after the Prime Minister’s revelation that there were nuclear weapons on board the submarine U137. On a secret mission In order to investigate whether the submarine was armed with nuclear weapons, measurements of the ionising radiation needed to be carried out. Reader Ragnar Hellborg from the Department of Physics in Lund was one of those who performed the measure- ments on behalf of the Swedish Defence Research Agency: It was around dinnertime on All Hallows’ Eve when the phone rang.

  • Nils Holgerssons Underbara Matresa Blekinge Och Öland
    Nils Holgerssons underbara matresa Recept och kuriosa för kockar och matgäster Blekinge och Öland ”Jag tycker det var bättre förr. Även det som var sämre var på något sätt bättre” Ölänskt talesätt Inledning Välkommen till ’’Nils Holgerssons underbara matresa’’. Under flera veckor kommer vi tillsammans göra en kulinarisk resa genom flera av Sveriges landskap, där vi bekantar oss med rätter som är typiska för just det landskap vi befinner oss i. Vid varje nytt stopp kommer det ett nytt häfte med intressant information om området och recept. Syftet med dessa häften är att ni som kockar ska få lära er lite mer om våra svenska landskapsrätter. Denna information kan ni sedan sprida vidare till era matgäster. Vi hoppas att informationen kommer att vara till nytta och att ni blir mer nyfikna på den svenska matkulturhistorian. Vi inleder denna resa med en beskrivning av vad husmanskost är av Margareta Björn. Trevlig resa! Husmanskost Förr var husmanskost en beteckning för den maten man åt i vardagslag. Grundstommen i vardagsmaten var gröt eller välling morgon och kväll. Salt strömming och sill hörde också vardagen till, liksom det salta fläsket. Denna stadiga och enformiga grundstomme lättades sedan upp av den fisk som fångades i sjöar och vattendrag och det vilda som kunde jagas. Till söndagen och vid de större helgerna försökte alla, även den fattigaste av husmödrar, servera familjen litet godare mat. Numera har husmanskost blivit beteckning för rätter som vi anser typiskt svenska. Källa: Margareta Björn, med Nils Holgersson på matresa genom Sverige. Det kulinariska Blekinge 3 000 år gamla hällristningar visar att redan då fanns det människor som upptäckt att det är värt att besöka Blekinge(1).

Många har bidragit med foton. För andra delen ombads samhällsföreningar mm att komma in med bilder som sammanfattade arbetet med försköningsmedlen för deras by. För att understryka det viktiga tillverkandet så ville vi få exempel på själva arbetet som del. Vi ville även få bilder över hela året då vi vill stimulera att användandet inte bara sker över en kort sommarperiod utan mest möjligt över hela året! Utanför dessa så har det största antalet foton, mer än åttio, ta- gits av Roland Gustavsson. Andra som bidragit är Bo Svensson, Saxemara, Ola Johansson, Eringsboda, Sven Strandberg, Hallabro, Stefan Rehberg, Bräkne- Hoby, Maria Dehlsen, Belganet samt Ingegerd Linden, Bräkne-Hoby.
