Norway in 1939 -- the year before the German Occupation, a time when many things still seemed possible. Three women students are exploring the limits of love and friendship: Bente, lively and rebellious, trying to break away from the stifling roles of wife and mother; Gro, beautiful and affectionate but oddly remote; and Edle, the shy, brilliant history major, deeply in love for the first time in her life. Eight years later Edle finally tells the story of that exciting, troubling spring, when so much happened... and so much couldn''t happen. Condemned for its \"perversity\" and virtually ignored when first published in 1948, this novel by well-known author Ebba Haslund is one of a handful of novels with a lesbian theme ever written in Norwegian. An important rediscovery, Nothing Happened is a moving story of female friendship and the courage to love.

Together with the Minster, the walls and bars make York one of the most instantly recognisable cities in the kingdom. The defenses are the most complete in England, with the walls set upon high ramparts and retaining their principal gateways. Although the walls are still standing, there has been relatively little opportunity for archaeological investigation, so documentary and pictorial evidence are of paramount importance. York is fortunate in possessing excellent collections of both. The book outlines the historical background from the pre-Conquest defenses to the present day and considers the walls, bars and posterns, the Old Baile and the castle in detail. It is a splendid and well-illustrated publication that will appeal to anyone interested in the history of York, military history, art, architecture or archaeology.

Its amazing the fun you can have with children with a little planning, some materials from the dollar store, and a healthy dose of imagination. No School Enjoy a Fun \"Theme\" Day gives you help with all three. Youll find more than two dozen themes that elementary-aged children would enjoy. The best part is that they (and you) will also have fun enjoying the themes, which include lunch ideas, physical activity, snacks, games, and more. For instance, a theme of round can include a day filled with activities from guessing how many coins are in a jar and drawing faces on balloons to eating a round pizza for lunch and then working off the calories playing with a round ball. A day about penguins can include showing children a map of the world and identifying where penguins live and mixing up letters to words that involve penguins (such as cold, snow, fish, water, swim, fins etc.) to swimming and having a snack of Oreo cookies, which are also black and white.
