Die Throw (review)
The "die throw" () is a type of rating scale which is often used in Norway. It is characterized by giving a score from one to six, where six is the highest, using a graphic of the corresponding side of a traditional die, instead of the stars or letters used in other countries. The format was introduced by film director and then-film critic Arne Skouen in the 31 March 1952 issue of ''Verdens Gang'' (''VG''), as a part of the newspaper's visual redesign. Skouen wanted to "characterize a film première in a short, concise form". The first film to be reviewed in this way was Divorced (1951), which received a four in the same issue. Die throws grew beyond film when ''VG'' introduced "Rampelys" ("spotlight") in 1981, which collected a large number of previously separate content relating to culture and entertainment. To achieve visual consistency, and because writers were encouraged to be concise, die throws became common practice. This was originally criticized by people inside and o ...

The ''Schutzstaffel'' (; ; SS; also stylised with SS runes as ''ᛋᛋ'') was a major paramilitary organisation under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party in Nazi Germany, and later throughout German-occupied Europe during World War II. It began with a small guard unit known as the ''Saal-Schutz'' ("Hall Security") made up of party volunteers to provide security for party meetings in Munich. In 1925, Heinrich Himmler joined the unit, which had by then been reformed and given its final name. Under his direction (1929–1945) it grew from a small paramilitary formation during the Weimar Republic to one of the most powerful organisations in Nazi Germany.

German Occupation Of Norway
The occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany during the Second World War began on 9 April 1940 after Operation Weserübung. Conventional armed resistance to the German invasion ended on 10 June 1940, and Nazi Germany controlled Norway until the capitulation of German forces in Europe on 8 May 1945. Throughout this period, a pro-German government named '' Den nasjonale regjering'' ('the National Government') ruled Norway, while the Norwegian king Haakon VII and the prewar government escaped to London, where they formed a government in exile. Civil rule was effectively assumed by the Reichskommissariat Norwegen (Reich Commissariat of Norway), which acted in collaboration with the pro-German puppet government. This period of military occupation is, in Norway, referred to as the "war years", "occupation period" or simply "the war". Background Having maintained its neutrality during the First World War (1914–1918), Norwegian foreign and military policy since 1933 was largely inf ...
