It made me realize again the need to live in the world of the present and to remember our different pasts. At the most recent Swedish Council of America's Board of Directors meeting in Cleveland, Ohio, I heard of a group of Swedish-Americans called "Digital Vikings." Their reason for being is to engage in the world of Digital with little or no interest in yesterdays events. They live in today and look to tomorrow. At the spring Cleveland meeting, another Swedish Council's Award of Merit Dinner was held. Pictured at the top of this column are Terry and Sharon Carlson, Bo Carlsson, Viola Hjelm, Emilie Kaud-Hanson, Aina Lustig, and Betty Swenson Schaller. They joined a growing list of Swedish North Americans so honored. These 7 persons, nominated by their affiliate groups, were recognized ...

The brand carrying one of Sweden's most well-known individual sports personalities also seems on track to appear in the U.S. Who was 2-time tennis Player of the Year (1979-80); won 6 French Opens and 5 straight Wimbledons (1976-80); led Sweden to the 1st Davis Cup win in 1975; and retired in 1983 at age 26? We know, it's a no-brainer: Björn Borg, Inc. has started quietly with mostly underwear, online at www.b/ornborg.com and in a store on Manhattan, at 89 Crosby Street.
