Olof Broströms musikaliska resa sjösattes först genom hans projekt Icehorse, någon gång i höstas.
Olofs osedvanligt raka röstbruk lyckas på något himmelskt vis gräva ur all melodisk skönhet ur kreationerna, ta fram det till ytan, och på samma gång blir de suspekta bakgrunderna en härlig kontrast och inramning.
Olof spinner vidare på idéerna och konceptet som skapade »In a trailer park«.

Icke blott såsom läkare, utan i många andra vetenskaper har Olof Rudbeck den äldre förvärvat ett stort namn.
Rudbeck var blott 22 år gammal, då han för den mångkunniga drottning Kristina gjorde en anatomisk sektion och visade de så kallade vasa lymphatica, vilka han upptäckt.

 Jerre's Thinktank - Writer's Corner - Assassination of Sweden's Olof Palme (Operation Tree)
Sweden's Dag Hammarskjöld, Secretary General of the United Nations - another institution that the West's right-wingers had a paranoid fear of - was killed in an airplane crash in September 1961 while trying to stop conflict between the UN's Emergency Force and Congolese rebels.
This was when Sweden was increasingly convinced that the Soviets were violating its waters because a Russian Whisky-class submarine had run aground in Skåne the previous year.
What had made Hammarskjöld's death so suspicious was that the CIA had recently arranged the murder of the Congo's independence leader, Patrice Lumumba, so that its stooge, General Joseph Mobutu, could take power.

 Encyclopedia: List of Swedish monarchs
Emund the Old (king of Sweden 1050-1060) was an illegitimate son of Olof Skötkonung.
As there is no evidence that Eric and Olof ever used the Yngling name themselves, modern historians instead refer to their family as the House of Muns&;, the House of Ivar and Ragnar Lodbrok, the Old Dynasty or the House of Uppsala.
However, the sagas tell that this line of kings was broken (see Ingjald and Ivar Vidfamne), and trace them back to Sigurd Ring and Ragnar Lodbrok (whom Saxo, on the other hand, considered to belong to the House of Yngling).

 History of Sweden
King Olof Skötkonung was baptized and made Christianity the official religion of Sweden in 1004.
Sweden expanded its borders, which included Finland, to contain the Baltic States, Denmark and its provinces of Skåne, Halland, Blekinge and Gotland, Norwegian provinces of Bohuslän, Jämtland and Härjedalen, and several German provinces.
Sweden was not, however, able to sustain its expanded borders, in part due to the fact that Sweden was primarily an agricultural nation and did not have sufficient resources or economic power.

 INGEGERD OLOFSDOTTER
Ringen, som uppenbarligen varit avsedd för en flicka eller finlemmad kvinna, påträffades på den plats där Olof skötkonung (sveakung ca 995-1022) troligen hade sin gård. Under vikingatiden var guld en exklusiv lyxvara och det låg nära till hands att förknippa ringen med Olofs dotter Ingegerd, född ca 1001.
Som storfurstinna i Kiev stod Ingegerd i spetsen då det ryska riket upplevde sin första storhetstid, manifesterad med bygget av den magnifika Sofiakatedralen.
Av Jaroslavs och Ingegerds barn blev fem söner ryska furstar och tre döttrar drottningar (i Norge, Frankrike och Ungern).
