Not exactly. Most people do not take enough leafy greens and whole cereals. And common supermarket meat can have a deficit in micronutrients because the cattle itself show this deficit (iron deficit in calves to give a "softer, whiter meat" ) or becomes deficient because of the processing.
B12 deficiency is for instance not uncommon among the average meat eating population.
I don't think there would be much difference if they had new from the outside world anyway given how boring Scandinavian news are. Well, there's some shoot-out from time to time or some crazy blackmetaller burning some churches, but that's once in a decade. the rest of the time the news are made of the guy who lost his Ikea screwdrivers while mounting his Ikea chair model Skitten.
Yeah, but the Catalans don't have scotch... and none of the extremely attractive traditions of the Scottish, like the one that consists in firing a canon shot every hour from the fortress of Edinburgh, not to speak about going commando with the kilt!!!
In Catalonia they only have cultural events such as massacring bulls with chainsaws or biting goats to death. While it certainly has it's fun it cannot be compared with the elation of running through the highlands swaying your slong in the fresh! And don't forget the canon shots!!
What's a "Norwegian American"? A black guy from Idaho with half his family Mexican, an Indian grandmother, a Texan dad and, an mom from Oklahoma and a granddad who was a buffalo from the prairies and who's only known relation to Norway is that you can correctly write N and W with a pen?
Cool then I'm a Maori Dutch because I read about the Maori in the Wikipedia. Let's make a Haka!!!
SUPER! You just told us that heterosexual couples with fertility issues can't get married!!! Thank you very much mate, you are a superstar of intelligence.
And what about a few million of perfectly heterosexual couples (like me and my wife) who have just decided not to have children?
Again: Cheers for showing us your superior intelligence. I will immediately propose you for the Nobel Prize of Everything.
We are registered as a religion in the same sense as the CFSM is but we are basically humanists with a few special traits such as a strong aesthetic component, the vindication of our right to do "evil" (right to vengeance for instance, not believing in "democracy").
These guys are very close to "pure" LaVeyan Satanism: http://www.thesatanictemple.org/#Beliefs For those who don't know: LaVey was the founder of the Church of Satan.
I would also strongly encourage the Pastafarians to start a funding campaing for a FSM monument !!!
They died out except for a few of them after putting weather satellites in orbit.
Dune were held artificially low tech too. And the possibility of laser-shield explosions on the ground that potentially destroyed the spice held the rivals of House Atreides back on using more advanced techniques... and the nukes were restricted.
Also note that the civilization of the Dune universe is very different from ours, there are technologies that were intentionally drewn back to lower standards (computers for instance).
And there is finally a huge component of stuff that I do regard as "magic", well back then in the 60s it would have been accepted as Sci but nobody regards nowadays all the ESP stuff and "prana" Energy and such as more than magic.
But even as a Fantasy world it is still pretty consistent within it's own logic
Sense maybe not... but you wont deny that it's damn fun and it definitely has the Nerd factor.
I had a lot of fun calculating how much it would take for a group of well trained and dedicated professionals to bring the ring to Mordor and hurl it into Mount Doom. I thought on a group of woodsmen afoot: They would have needed 20-30 days or so. I can't bring back my figures right now (I posted in on facebook to my friends and I now found out that it's fucking impossible to get a post back from this crap site, so much for "data analysis").
This would actually have meant that there was no story:
1. Gandalf figures out the ring was friggin dangerous 2. Gandalf as a wise guy takes the right decision to the get rid of the thing ASAP 3. Gandalf being wise assembles a group of Elite woodsmen properly equipped 4. They get the fuck off and hike to mount Doom living from the land and avoiding any city and town 5. They painfully gut and mutilate Gollum just for the sake of it 6. They hurl the ring into Mount doom 7. Done
Sauron and Saruman would have been caught still in undergarments, there wouldn't have been much time for the ring to tempt the party, there wouldn't have been any need for stopping to get stuff and no Hobbits screwing up with Mount Kings and crap.
To fill in the book after getting rid of the ring I would have made the badass woodsmen to dedicate their souls to Crom, gather a Barbarian Horde and plunder and rape the fuck out of it.... CROOOOOOOOM!!!!!!

the scales of the sharks do: They create micro-turbulences that act as a sort of physical anti-friction layer, AFAIK this properties were used by the aircraft industry already.

I'm so sorry you were bullied at school, really.
I swear I'm not going to do it anymore.
Ah, and you can take your head off the loo.
I have an Orwellian hangover mate!!!

Nope: Anti-anti is a code for... well, never mind

We can incorporate them as a new province of the Netherlands. We could use some of their hills down here, seriously.

Oh, I didn't know stuff were so fucked up over there that you had to sell it.
How much do you ask for Manhattan? We would like to rename it back to New Amsterdam, tear part of it down and build a bigger stadion for Ajax.
Let me guess... party? Hmmm.... The Beasty Boys?
