This is by far the longest thing I've ever translated. Since I'm not a native speaker, I took some liberties here and there, and snipped out some paragraphs that didn't seem important. (Like how big OL is, for example.) Oh, and anything in parenthesis is my words, likewise, I've inserted some question marks here and there about things I'm not entirely sure about. But the information is good. ==== After 16 years and...

If I understood the Norwegian correctly in the article posted at the Team Strømmen site it sounded as if as Dalum...

Thanks for the translation, I really appreciate it. However, I've been surprised, a little sad and disapointed in reading that article. I'm sure that the Hex@gones (a group of OL fans that follows OL when they play away matches and that really like the Ladies team), including me, will always support Bente just like every other players regardless she has a bf, a gf or is assexual. It's sad that they have to be so careful though.

I just found out that Bente Nordby will be the goalkeeper coach for the Toppserien club LSK Kvinner (previously Team Strømmen). http://www.team-strommen.no/sak/003889.asp Here is my attempt at an English translation: By Mari Knudsen Updated: 16.12.2009 We're pleased to announce that Bente will be part of the LSK team next year. She will make sure that our goalkeepers get the training they want and deserve. Having such an experienced...

Thanks for the great transcription of Bente's article, Redcard. Have you learned to read Norwegian? It will be sad when she finally retires from soccer in 2009, and I haven't even gotten to see her play live yet!

quick, Bonnie, call the airline! Tell them that you have been visiting long-lost relatives and Norway, and unfortunately Mormor Solveig just died, and they're having the funeral Saturday, and couldn't you please get bereavement rates to stay two more days?? They might be suspicious, and say "but you flew from Atlanta"—just tell them you had a commuter flight first from Duluth or something. @import...
