RE: How many middle aged people could do these tests successfully? ........
First task - pushups. I haven't done that for many years, I did 20. No doubt I can manage 40 if I start doing pushups daily or at least weekly. Next task - stair climbing. I do the stairs daily at work,

RE: Some thoughts on ... water bottles
Yes, that's certainly an alternative. A year ago I would ask ... "why buy a heavy, expensive metallic bottle when the standard transparent PET-bottle is so cheap?" - as mentioned, I believe it's

RE: HOW TO MAKE A SUPER TOY-PUZZLE FOR 1$
Sharp needles may be harmful for small children even if they are not put into the mouth. It was a joke that the "product" should be labelled, but it may be important to be aware of the risk.

RE: Waiting for the bus ... and some general thoughs on silly planning
They can be pretty bad here in Norway too, but generally if there are side walks they are supposed to clean the side walks too.

School food is another topic worth a post on its own. Here in Norway, the authorities cannot afford food in the kinder gardens and schools, hence we have to pack lunch boxes with sandwiches. I don't like

RE: Some thoughts on ... water bottles
The tap water in Piter is supposed to be potable, but nobody drinks it. My eldest son was going to school in Kolpino for some months, the parents was sharing the costs for a water dispenser in the class

RE: Waiting for the bus ... and some general thoughs on silly planning
It's terrible. I've grown up biking around, my mother got her first car when I was in school age, and she rarely would work as my private taxi driver, if I wanted to go somewhere I had to do it myself.

Remember to slap that CE-sticker on it ... "Warning! May contain small parts! Unsuitable for children under the age of 3!" :-)

needles (how are they called?:) thumbnails EDIT: I thought I knew something, but checking a popular search engine and a popular encycopledia out there, I was mistaken. Correct words are thumbtacks, drawing

RE: Waiting for the bus ... and some general thoughs on silly planning
In a society where "everyone" is having and using a car, setting up free buses to attract potential shoppers probably doesn't make economic sense. Here in Oslo quite many "ordinary people"

I've used downvotes some few times in the past. I remember one article I found to be totally crap, this was in the "flame wars" between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash. I believe the poster was just

RE: Social Problems in Norway
Not only that the random interaction with a stranger has to compete ... but even when meeting friends or colleagues on the bus, the conversation often has to compete with the telephone. And I'm often guilty

RE: The Joker Movie β Itβs No Laughing Matter
Our national broadcaster NRK praised the film very much, The Guardian wrote it was totally crap. I don't think I have time to see it in any case. :-)

RE: Social Problems in Norway
In a society where physical objects are adored, study's in materialism have found that it (could) lead to social isolation. I've been to Manhattan once ... and it was much worse than Oslo. If someone would

RE: Some thoughts on ... water bottles
I did read a while ago that bottled water had an "alarming" amount of micro plastics in it. Anyway, I do take that as support for one of my claims in my post - if one has to go for plastic water

RE: Some thoughts on ... water bottles
Interesting. So the recommendation from that article (to clean the bottles with hot water at least daily) could possibly be a bad advice? And some plastic bottles may work out for water, but are unsuitable

I love it when someone come on the bus and has heavy things on them and they realize that the bus seats are all taken, or even some free where the person didn't put a bag there, they go stand in the wheelchair

I have been told also that if you go a bit further from the city it gets even worse! Maybe you have a point about "personal space", but I don't think your hypothesis that low population density
