The writing about the song "Herr Mannelig"

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Do you ever look at stories, what are told about journeyman? Some of them are very attractive and impressive. And almost in every book or adventure movies, the main character is some kind of journeyman, who have very good experience about those situations, what happens in those books or films. That kind of stories are not new, and they are told by journeymen or somebody, who have met those journeymen. In this text I don't actually write about the song "Herr Mannelig", but I would use the video about this song as an innovator about this text.


One of the oldest songs of Sweden is "Herr Mannelig", what is the folk tradition. In this film, what opens from the link below the text, this main character is made for moving. The film or music video is made by some Swedish band called "Garmarna".  The writer of that song is not mentioned, but it is the story about the man, who denied to get married to the witch, who lived on some mountain. The story is very popular, and there are many presentations about this quite good Viking-era song.


The idea of this song or music video is that man tells some stories, what are very suspicious. A man or woman tells stories, about journeys and storms what the teller have been faced during the life, and of course, this person tells about the monster, who lived under the falls of somewhere in northern Norway, and the stories are fascinating and impressive. There is one very strange thing about the main character. He doesn't do anything in the boat, is he some kind of passenger, in this music video. They are stories about journeys to edge of the world, and in the first many people sees nothing to say about them, but then we must realize that there is one big question about the stories, what the journeyman tells, and that is, that this journeyman was always alone in those situations.



There is nobody, who can proof those worlds about great adventures of this Mannelig. Every person who were with him in those ships were somewhere else, when this stories have been told. In the video, the prime male character has the very good equipment, and here I must ask if he actually meant to introduce as a journeyman? The equipment of this character is too perfect for use of Viking tradesman. They look like soldiers equipment, and that might meant for the joke. But the film is very good support for this writing because my Swedish is not very good. And as you see the writing is my hobby, and that's why I'm writing this text.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
