Yes, continue master program at UMB, Ås. Are so lucky to have had the opportunity to write thesis of a "spinout" or "Startin 'as you also call it as new companies emerge from large companies. Will write for PubGene.com which is a spinout from the renowned pharmaceutical company Glaxo Smith Kline. They have utivklet a medical search engine that brings up articles based on keywords. Computer systems consist of their sophisticated algorithms that generate contextual knowledge. Here I find the value proposition ("value proposition") to related parties so when it's time to get serious again!

Yes, as is film number 2 from BT Management Productions clear. Since that first movie was a total failure, I've spent some more time. I have used Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 and it has sort of taken a few days to learn it (it's great program!). But is satisfied with the result. Judging yourself and feel free to leave comments. The video can be found here .
Back in Norway
Daily Day September 5th, 2006
Relax folks. I was not kidnapped or abducted on roadtrippen in the U.S.. The trip went from Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon. It rained and rained (!!). There lay a thin layer of haggel on the road. A few hours earlier we had 40 degrees in the Arizona desert so here you can talk about the climate differences! Fortunately we had with us the sunset in the Grand Canyon. Recommended! Then we went (me and Ian) to Fresno and Sequoia National Park in the Sierra Nevada to see "the largest living thing. A sequoia tree (a Redwood-art) that is 3000 years old. Largest tree I've ever seen! Yes, it was almost like one could run 1000 meters around the trunk. Then a "breakneck" drive down from the Sierra Nevada. However, it was good training for swing coordination.
2 days after we got back to Mountain View was going through the rigorous security checks I've seen so far at San Francisco Intl. Airport. They took the Coke box, my! Stopover in Paris where I took the photo of the Eiffel Tower, then up to the Oslo and was lucky enough to get me on the evening flight to Harstad / Narvik Airport, Glasgow. Airlines have been very strict on baggage and overweight. Had to pay approx. 1500 million in obesity. SAS Braathens is empty. begun to take additional charge for paragliders and kiters. Too bad for them. Norwegian next time. Photos from Roadtrippen is now in the gallery .
