Thank you for keeping us abreast with the Denmark’s match results at the World Football Championships, pcwr.
So far so good – even for BladeD who is on his way to become ’Overlord’ whatever that is by betting on Danish results. The Daily Danish Top News Brigitte Nielsen, 54, gave birth to a girl named Frida. - Congratulations former Ms Stallone Cans The Social Democrat party wants to ban sales of cans and other metal items in our prisons following a number of assaults - the most recent on 20180622 where an inmate from the ’Loyal to Familia’ gang assaulted a prison guard with a can put into a sock to be used as a weapon. - not many write ’prison guard’ on their career wish list these days Life Regrets The quality of life for the elderly is often disturbed by sorrow, crises, and ruminations over life regrets. They only have a short span of time to correct what they regret having done - or not having done. Funds has been allocated for psychologist sessions to relieve these issues, hoping the initiative could lead to an improvement of quality of life and a reduction of prescriptions antidepressants. - to be able to afford this must be a welfare state hallmark Energy Our government has a plan. The goal is that 50% of the energy consumption in Denmark should be supplied by renewable sources by 2030. Not only that. The consumption of fossil fuels should be phased out by 2050. Not only that. The tax on energy – which among other things has been an incentive for energy conservation by insulation of homes and much more should be reduced. The ’green energy’ will have a gradual price reduction of 30% to be fully implemented by 2025. One of the biggest wind farms in the world – which The Daily Danish has mentioned in earlier editions is a projected part of the master plan as well. It will supply a quantity of green energy sufficient to cover the demand of Denmark’s seven largest cities. The market forces will decide who gets a share of the DKK4.2 billion ~ €560 mio ~ US$640 mio allocated for support of green energy projects – bio mass, sun, wind on- or offshore, or wave/water power projects. – renewable energy – and the cost of developing it – is widely supported by the Danes. Floating nuclear power plant Denmark’s location as a funnel for maritime traffic to and from the Baltic produces some special sights. Not long ago a huge cruise ship passed narrowly below the Great Belt Bridge, and on May 4 the Akademik Lomonosov passed on her way from St. Petersburg to Murmansk in Russia. She is a floating nuclear power plant able to supply energy for 100,000 people. In Murmansk she will have fuel elements installed before continuing her trip to Pevek in Sibiria some 6,000 km/4,000 miles from Denmark. She cannot sail on her own but is pulled by tug boats. Here you see at the shipyard in St. Petersburg. She – or rather her tugs – have Danish pilots to guide her through Danish waters, and the Najaden - a Danish Navy patrol boat - was on the lookout to see that the passage went well ready to assist if necessary. Surrounded by tug boats in St. Petersburg Fisker is back from Chapter 11 and has some ambitions. Fisker wants to topple Tesla from the electrical car throne. The Fisker Karma plug-in hybride car at the North American International Auto Show i Detroit in 2008 Henrik Fisker studied car design in Switzerland, and worked for BMW and Aston Martin before being hired by Elon Musk to work on the Tesla. That finished with allegations of foul play and their ways separated. Fisker launched ’Fisker Karma’ by the end of 2011 but his battery supplier went belly up beaching the Karma project about the time of the launching of Musk's Tesla Model S. Fisker wants to have a car ready by 2020 with a new type of batteries able to power the car about 900 km/600 miles on one charge – and with a recharging time of just 10 minutes. For car freaks it might be interesting to run parts of this article through Google Translate. - finally a Dane disobeying the Law of Jante and not weighed down by all that many minority complexes Stress management We are burning up from noise and distractions to a degree where it puts us at increased risk for developing cancer and stress and it disturbs our concentration and learning abilities. One bid for creating calm inside yourself can be watching a cow. One could sit still and stare into internity, but following a cow with your eyes gives a purpose. - may I recommend choosing the one that looks the other way? |

I don't remember seeing it on anyone wish list...ever. There must be a good deal of people disliking their job in your country....In mine they are increasingly afraid. It used to be a relatively decent job years back - 40 or so - with a civil servant status and a good pension That was when we jailed 'normal' murderers and such - now we have gangs fighting over drug dealing territories to name just one 'modern' field of crime. |
