For thousands of years survival in Norway's countryside, where farms were miles from each other, meant complete self-sufficiency. Farmsteads were like small villages with several families living together and building their homes from logs and turf.

At Oslo's Norwegian Folk Museum, entire farmsteads have been transplanted here log-by-log by master carpenters who use traditional joinery techniques and knowledge of birch-bark roofs - a combination of birch bark and sod used since at least 300AD. These mini-villages also include elevated storehouses for food and textiles, as well as barns and saunas (not just for recreation, but also for laundry).

This open air museum has 160 buildings (mostly originals with a few reproductions), including one of the world's remaining stave churches dating back to 1200. The centuries-old wood is preserved by a traditional tarring method applied every 4 years.

There are also several city streets of "Old Town" Oslo with townhouses dating back to about 1700 and 19th and 20th Century interiors, including a mock-up of the apartment from Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House".

How We Offer the Best Russian Massage in Dubai Center

Russian massage treatment was created in the former USSR and is used in both sporting and therapeutic settings. It accomplishes this by manipulating the body's soft tissues with a variety of techniques, which lessens tension and eases soreness in the muscles. Numerous societies worldwide have evolved distinct forms of massage therapy. The Greek physician Hippocrates, who is regarded as the father of medicine, was among its earliest proponents. Many people think that Per Henrik Ling, a Swedish physician, invented contemporary European massage in the 1800s. Ling vigorously rubbed to promote lymphatic and circulatory flow. In Russia, massage was not systematically studied or applied until 1860. Following World War II, when medications were scarce, treatment techniques were improved.

Physiatrists, or physicians with advanced degrees in physical therapy, were employed by the Soviet Union to investigate the potential advantages of complementary therapies. To help in the stimulation of new muscle growth and the reversal of muscular atrophy, they created a type of petrissage. According to Russian physiologists, neurohormone and neuroendocrine responses are the source of all massage movements. Russian massage, in contrast to other forms of massage, focuses more on treating the problem's physiology than its anatomy. Water-softened oak (or birch) branches are used by two venik practitioners to "hit" face-down clients in a gentle and rhythmic manner. The collisions and friction of these branches heat the body and enhance circulation. In recent decades, there has been a growing interest in this unusual type of massage therapy from both Russians and non-Russians.

In our Russian steam baths known as "banyas," venkarma procedures are offered

Before receiving a massage, many clients like to relax in steam rooms, take hot baths, and then dive into cold water pools. It's likely that people started doing this customary way of life to get used to the brutally cold Russian winters. Many others, however, favor a more contemporary kind of massage that originated in the same area. Modern Russian massage, which was developed in the former Soviet Union and brought to Russia in the 1800s, shares certain parallels with reflexology, point massage, and sports massage. Our dubai russian massage center increases immunity, facilitates breathing, and enhances neurological system performance.

Compared to their counterparts in the sports massage industry, Russian massage therapists work more slowly and gently. They promote circulation and generate heat in their clients' bodies by generating friction. In addition, Russian massage therapists use methods like vibrating, slapping, and kneading to release tension in the soft tissues, including the muscles.Russian doctors blended conventional medicine with massage techniques during the 20th century; this combination was frequently called "manual therapy," even by those serving on the front lines of World War II. Throughout the Soviet era, massage therapy treatments were actually exclusively available to athletes and medical patients.

Our dubai russian massage center is increasingly widely used by patients as a supplement to other forms of therapy and medical attention. It can expedite the recovery from trauma and the healing of various illnesses. To find out if this type of massage will improve your health, lessen symptoms, or limit adverse effects, speak with us.

Egotober Day Thirteen - Clockwork - Damien, Celine, AntiSepticEye

Damien’s breathing was unsteady, his lungs burned from the cold air filling them. He must’ve been on the ground for some time, the cold snow melting into his clothes. His hands grasped at his body. The tattered jacket familiar to him even without looking. His head throbbed, and when he cracked open his eyes the sunlight only made it worse. 

He struggled to sit up, taking in the winter purgatory. It was quiet, Celine’s voice no longer battling his own. After everything, this was a welcome reprieve, but he needed to find his sister. For a stranger to bring him here was strange, and he feared what Anti had planned for him. 

He forced himself to his feet, stumbling into one of the birch trees lining the trail ahead of him. Damien hated that he knew this forest inside and out, he hated when Celine sent him here so she could front without his intervention. The forest never changed, even when he cut down all of the trees, by the time he came back they returned unharmed. It made him sick. 

He understood how Celine sent him here, but he struggled to understand how Anti did it, had he just forced him back into his own psyche? The trail led him to the lake, still frozen over. Celine stood by the edge of it. She looked at him over her shoulder, her face a puffy red. 

“I can’t get us out.” Her voice was broken, choking on tears. “I don’t know what he did to us, but I can’t fix it.” Damien stayed quiet, opening his arms to her. She melted into him, sobbing into his shoulder. “Are you giving up?” He asked softly. She didn’t respond. “He can’t be stronger than us, I just don’t believe that.” 

Celine sighed heavily, pulling herself together. “He got in my head, I can’t believe he did it. What if he’s puppeting us around just like Jack?” Damien considered this for a second, but found it strange that they’d be here rather than somewhat lucid. Jack seemed to be when Anti had power over him. 

“Maybe he isn’t stronger than us. Maybe this is the best he can do, block us out but not control us.” Celine looked up at Damien, unsure. “You need to rest.” He said, taking her hand and leading her back up the trail.

When they came upon the cabin, Damien opened the door. It looked untouched by life and time, no dust on the furniture, the fireplace burning as usual. Celine collapsed into the bed, and Damien picked up the ax by the door. He went back out into the cold, going for the treeline. 

One tree down, another, and another. The wind rustled behind him, a whisper through the forest. Damien stood still, anticipating someone’s approach. 

“Quite the bleak mindscape, Damien..” Anti’s voice rippled through the cold quiet. Damien never turned to look at him, returning to chopping his wood, his movements like clockwork, without effort or thought. 

“What do you want from us?” He asked, in between smacks to the trunk. “An ally.” Anti said plainly. “You won’t find that in me.” He told him. “Don’t you want power, to be the king you were made to be?” Anti asked. “Not my thing.” Damien shrugged. “But it is Celine’s.” Anti told him. 

Damien paused. He wasn’t wrong, Damien knew this. Celine was hungry for it, a hunger he feared she got from Mark, from that house. Damien loved her, he did, how could a sibling not? But he did know that he wanted to avoid her getting that power. “She can’t have it.” Damien turned to look at Anti. 

The crisp, cold forest made Damien’s blue eyes shine, an obvious foil to Anti’s dark eyes. “What do you want?” Anti asked him. Damien looked down at his feet, avoiding his gaze. “To be free, to have my own mind. I want Celine back in a body that has no power, I want my sister back. Nothing you can give me.” Anti nodded. “Everything I want, you stand in the way off. I want my family, you put them in danger. I want my own mind, Henrik and Marvin are the only ones who can fix that.” 

“You can’t even trust Marvin.” Anti told him. Damien shook his head. “I can, I understand why he hid this from us.”  “I have plans, Damien, big plans that I need you for.” Damien watched Anti, his composure slowly coming apart and his glitching became worse with every passing moment he stayed silent. “Fine..” Anti growled. “Let’s see what response I get from you when I have your girl.” 

Damien stayed quiet, his jaw tightening. His refusal to respond had gotten to Anti, his anger seeping out. Even without Celine’s insight, he could feel that. It made Damien nauseous, finally understanding Chase’s pain. 

Anti turned away from Damien. “Certainly wouldn’t be the first kid I’ve hurt.”

Royal News: Princess Charlotte marries!

Last weekend the royal family had cause for celebration in the form of a wedding when His Majesty King Henrik’s cousin, HRH Princess Charlotte married her long-time boyfriend Daniel Birch. The couple opted for a small private wedding with just family members and close friends at Solna’s Old Stone Church. The Palace posted these two photo’s of the happy newlyweds on their socials along the announcement.

From the photo’s we can see that Her Highness wore a more modern but elegant knee-length dress and a elbow length veil. Mr. Birch went with a simple black suit. The couple will now be known as HH Princess Charlotte and Lord Daniel of Charleston.

Minecraft Thoughtdump: The Paint and The Canvas

This is a fairly unstructured ramble about my opinions on minecraft world generation.

So, off the bat... 1.18 was possibly the best minecraft update ever. while for a lot of people it may have been saddening to see C&C split into two, it was for sure for the better. A lesson of over-scoping was learned, and yet the update still reached its potential fully! Its insanely impressive how much 1.18 did. I remember being there during the experimental snapshots, with henrik (who has now left the team to pursue more) leading them, he was asking for feedback everywhere! I remember seeing a discord conversation someone had about the distribution of dripstone in the cave biomes Overall, it was a fantastic update. It truly shows the iteration and feedback process at its finest. How glad I am for 1.18... But to recap what 1.18 did for the sake of this post - one of the most notable things is that... we don't have "hills" biomes anymore. we just have... hilly terrain! heightmap and biomes are separated now, with them somewhat having influence on eachother but overall being completely separate things. This makes for a lot more variety in terrain shape! Its especially noticeable in single biome worlds, just how varied the terrain can be in a single biome.

However, I do think this is merely the beginning of a minecraft 2 of sorts. I think its fair to look at the heightmap and placement of biomes as the "canvas" that is painted upon, and the actual biomes themselves and features, from the grass to the trees, to the rocks and the flowers... as if those are all the "paint" Do you get what I'm gettin at? I think now that worldgen was torn out and redone entirely, we have an amazing canvas to work with. Truly, so many things can be put on top of it

But alas, the paint is still not quite up to date. Its like if you replaced a wall in a house that was crumbling down and pretty weak with a fantastic new wall, but kept the same faded paint color on it... Still works as a wall! its just... wouldn't it be nicer if the paint was also redone? That's what I think minecraft needs. I think oak forests in particular are an example of this - they're still the same trees as they were in alpha. I think the general shape is too iconic to change, but more height variety would at least be nice! More boulders, ferns, ponds!

Here's where my biggest idea comes into play, though. You know how they got rid of hill biomes because they were made redundant with Fancy Heightmap Technology? Well what if... we made biomes like old growth birch forests and sparse jungles redundant? What if... tree density and height was based on random noise? Imagine... every forest you find has a different variation of height, of density... some forests you find are towering and dense as heck, but some are fairly sparsely placed. Some, a nice inbetween... It would make multiple instances of the same biome far more unique to come across. Apply it to tall grass and flowers too, and you truly have an insane amount of variation The cherry on top would be for forest clearings to occasionally generate, with boulders or ponds, or big stumps in them... Also, fallen / hollow logs thanks Of course, this is all way easier said than done, and its clear mojang has different priorities currently, and... well yeah, its a lot more complicated. Worldgen is hard to make, and its even harder to make everyone happy. They don't want to break old worlds, they dont want to break expectations, they want to deliver quality...

Mojang are not the bad guys, despite so many people thinking that. Minecraft ideas academy on youtube has some good videos on the subject.

Anyways, i think we are merely in the beginning of the new age of minecraft worldgen. I don't think 1.20 will be quite it (I think 1.20 is a FANTASTIC future for minecraft though still thats my next post. and then a post about structures)

If we think of the world as a canvas... and the trees, grass, flowers... all of that as the paint? Well, I see a bright future for Minecraft

this is birch wood slander (/j), what about like birch planks? those go so good with spruce wood like imagine a house that’s got like spruce walls and stripped dark oak beams supporting the roof and the floor is made out of birch planks or stripped birch? i personally think it’s pretty :3 /lh /nm

Lubo, I hope I'm not being a bother but do you know of any books about Novgorod? I've been trying to find some to use as reference, but I don't know where to start do you think you could point me in the right direction?

I’ve got a few suggestions you could use online! A lot of my sources have been online only, because getting translations of these materials is fucking hard, so I’ve piece-mailed everything together via various sources.

My first go-to is the Novgorodian Chronicle, basically a year-by-year telling of the events in the city, and then later the country at large. There’s a PDF of the original English translation from 1914: https://faculty.washington.edu/dwaugh/rus/texts/MF1914.pdf

Vikings in Veliky Novgorod: https://www.rbth.com/travel/2015/11/03/vikings_in_veliky_novgorod

Birch bark letters: https://www.medievalists.net/2018/08/medieval-daily-life-birchbark/ https://www.manuscript-cultures.uni-hamburg.de/MC/articles/mc10_mendoza.pdf If you need hardcopy stuff, and you can find any of Henrik Birnbaum’s work, and not pay 100 bucks for a copy, he has whole essays on the matter. They’re my holy grail, as it were. ‘Lord Novgorod the Great’ and ‘Lord Novgorod in Focus’ are some pieces I want to bless my eyeballs with. Valentin Yanin specialized too specifically on the city, and his work might be harder to find in English.

bee. bee. music box jameson being so touch starved and scared he gets up in the middle of the night sobbing and knocking so so softly on a brother’s door, just for a little hug or a soft touch on his hand. being so lonely and spaced out he doesn’t even realize there’s tears streaming down his face as he sits at the table, jackie right in front of him trying to snap him out of this trace. being so used to dancing to his music he unconsciously does small movements or begins to turn (1/2)

YES YES THIS IS WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE THIS IS THE LEVEL WE NEED TO BE AT -

he needs to remember that he still has FLESH not wood so he’s awake at four in the morning rapping on Henrik’s door asking to sleep next to him or he’s hanging out at the bar letting people feel him up and kissing strangers, he’s clingy for days and days, trying to snuggle up in everybody’s lap like a little kid, but then he forgets that he’s a living thing capable of affecting other living things and he zones out cause no one’s coming to comfort him and his skin feels like birch anyway and he’s afraid that if someone touches him he will snap in half.

i love that image of Jackie trying to get him out of a dissociative state, trying to get him to respond at all, because Jameson can just sink back so deep into his head they think he’s catatonic. sometimes he may as well be unconscious, limp as a killed fish, but other times he’s awake and just can’t remember how to make his body move, and Jackie is calling for him so soft and so afraid for hours and hours, Jackie is carrying him to his bed and sitting with him, playing his favorite music and whispering to him about anything and everything that comes into his head, trying to remind Jamie that he can move and react and think, patting at his face with a warm washcloth as the tears fall for hours and hours, beyond the control of either of them, beyond the control of anyone.

his body always feels stiff. he gets scared when the ground beneath him is slanted or unsteady, afraid to go crashing to the floor, ground beneath Anti’s heel. sometimes he thinks his human face is ugly and he misses his clean porcelain face, his blue eyes warmly downcast, his pink mouth in a small, peaceful smile, his cheeks colored with two clean dots of blush, stood up on his toes in his little blue ballet flats, one tiny blue tear frozen on his perfect face. Marvin doesn’t lend him make-up anymore, it makes him cry. they keep buying him new clothes and encouraging him to pick them out but he won’t change out of the dapper outfit he was wearing when Anti stole him and shuts down if a button pops off or a thread comes loose.

when he does start to go back to those old, all-too-familiar movements, his body swaying a little, bending oddly, picking himself up on his toes, his face falling into a blank smile, they try to notice and respond, hurrying to him and calling his name, pulling him into a hug and rubbing hard at his shoulders, trying to pull him back before he gets deep in his head, trying to ground him.

and like two hours later they’re all like “we’re going to let go now okay?” and he’s like “NO wait i…. )‘‘‘: i’m sorry, i know i’m so annoying but please don’t let me go, i don’t want to go back there”

the sleep paralysis would be just AWFUL for him and the demon that came and stared at him would most likely be not Anti but that pretty porcelain doll in the dapper vest, staring down at him with that faux peace smile and that one blue tear… he cries and sprints to Jackie’s room and hides under the bed as soon as he can move again, refusing to come out for hours. and then he won’t sleep until he’s got at least one person holding him and somebody guarding the door and maybe a nice cat on his lap and maybe if Chase would tell him a story or something that would be good and no wait Henrik don’t go!!! don’t go, you’ll get caught, he’ll make you dance too, nobody go, hold onto me!!!!!

they’re all so exhausted. it’s completely untenable. they’re still trying to figure out how to cope with this as a family. and it’s awful for JJ’s self-esteem because he just feels like such a burden, and he doesn’t know what he’s living for and none of it feels real, so he just hides with whatever brother is closest and hopes that if he keeps trying one day he’ll be able to handle everything that happened to him.
