1. …”i just thought i sholud mention this: gaarder did NOT write an article! He wrote whst is called in norwegian a “kronikk”, which is way less formal and could be compared to, well, a blogpost…”No, really, a “kronikk” accepted by a serious newspaper is a far more formal genre than a blogpost. It is also more formal than the general letter to the editor. And when it is written by an internationally known author, the readers have every right to apply some critical analysis. In a new “kronikk” today Gaarder defends his first “kronikk” by claiming that he had used a certain literary form. Among other things, when saying that “we do not recognize the state of Israel”, he says that he has been playing with an ambiguity in the Norwegian word for ‘recognize’ (of a state). The word is ‘anerkjenne’, and to ‘anerkjenne’ something can also mean simply to approve of it, to look at it with favour - which is the relevant meaning when he also writes that we do not ‘anerkjenne’ Israel’s rhetoric. The English word ‘recognize’ is of course also ambiguous, but in a different way - and it would be more or less as if someone wrote: “I no longer recognize the state of Israel”, meaning, without saying it, “because it has changed so much lately that all familiar features have disappeared”. Now, I am all in faveour of playing with words. But this topic is a minefield, and it is not wise to play in a minefield. On the contrary, in a minefield you choose your steps, i.e., your words, with the utmost care, leaving as little room for unfriendly or over-friendly interpretation as possible. Failure to observe this is not a sign of a great thinker.

2. Rival legal teams, well-financed and highly motivated, are girding for court battles over the coming months on laws enacted in Arkansas and North Dakota that would impose the nation’s toughest bans on abortion.
   For all their differences, attorneys for the two states and the abortion-rights supporters opposing them agree on this: The laws represent an unprecedented frontal assault on the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that established a nationwide right to abortion.
   The Arkansas law, approved March 6 when legislators overrode a veto by Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe, would ban most abortions from the 12th week of pregnancy onward. On March 26, North Dakota went further, with Republican Gov. Jack Dalrymple signing a measure that would ban abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, when a fetal heartbeat can first be detected and before some women even know they’re pregnant.
   Abortion-rights advocates plan to challenge both measures, contending they are unconstitutional violations of the Roe ruling that legalized abortion until a fetus could viably survive outside the womb. A fetus is generally considered viable at 22 to 24 weeks.
