Even his neighbors find his devotion a bit unbelievable. "It is early January and I am on my way home with the sail bag over one shoulder and the camera case over the other when I run into a neighbor," Colbing relates. "'You can't possibly have been out to sea today!' is his astonished remark. 'Sailing! You can't expect me to believe you've got a boat afloat now, in the depths of winter? Boats are supposed to be hauled out at the beginning of October! And it's twelve degrees below... You camped out there? Yeah, right, don't try that one on me!

About half a year earlier, [Silvio Berlusconi] had boasted that Parma, Italy was selected as host of the EU's new food authority, rather than archrival Helsinki, because of the superior quality of Italian food. The Italian leader complained that in order to win support from other European countries, he had to first "endure" Finnish food. French President Jacques Chirac, presumably incited by the wit of his Italian counterpart, added fuel to the fire a few weeks later by suggesting that the only food worse than British is Finnish. These undeserved insults directed against Finnish cuisine by two major European leaders did not go unnoticed in Helsinki. Planning had already been under way for over a year for a major campaign to promote Finnish food. The stinging comments from both Berluscon...

Svalbard consists of a group of islands in the Arctic Ocean, covering an area of roughly 23,000 square miles, of which 60% is covered with glaciers. It is the northernmost part of Norway, located midway between mainland Norway and the North Pole. Discovered by the Dutch explorer Willem Barentsz in 1596, the islands soon became a haven for whalers. In the early 190Os, mining became a major industry, and, more recently, several arctic research stations have been set up on the islands. Unique Swedish Jewelry and Gifts.

There are currently about 20 automobile suppliers with Swedish roots in Michigan, and, according to [Lennart Johansson], there is room for more. "But before attempting to expand to a global market, the suppliers' products need to be established in local markets," he says. "The Swedes are inventive and competent, although they're not great at selling their products or marketing themselves, skills that Americans practice in school." However, Lennart believes that with focus and unique product solutions, Swedish suppliers will continue to be successful competitors in global markets. "Especially now that the trend is to give suppliers commissions to deliver entire technical solutions, from product development to delivery - an area where the Swedes already possess expertise," he adds.
