Article from Nordre Aker Budstikke with some quotes translated by me:
Veien fra fengsel til samfunn går via Sandaker
Crown Princess Mette Marit opened the Red Cross centre for the return of former convicts to society. Here the Red Cross, the Correctional Service, Oslo Municipality and the business community cooperate in order for previous criminals to have normal lives.

''We can't escape from our background. Some bring a baggage that feels heavy to carry. It's important to turn it into something positive. Then it's crucial how one is met, and are one met with acceptance, then it's easier to live with their past," said the Crown Princess.

''We need someone who says 'you're good enough as you are' that it's okay, and shows that you can even be an asset,'' she added.

NRK article with quotes translated by me:

Crown Princess Mette-Marit had a home advantage when she met VG's former chief editor Torry Pedersen to talk about the media's role, but they didn't mention old disagreements.

On Tuesday, the Crown Princess and VG chairman and former chief editor Torry Pedersen sat down for a conversation about the media during this year's Sikt Conference in Kristiansand.

''I've been very excited about this interview! Are you nervous?" Asked the Crown Princess.

''No, but I'm mentally prepared for payback time,'' replied Pedersen, referring to the newspaper's disagreement with the Crown Princess earlier this year.''

Edit: As one can see in the article that iceflower posted above, the Crown Princess said that they intended to name their daughter after two Queens from the middle ages:
''We actually intended to call Ingrid Alexandra for Tyra Eufemia, but we thought it was so special that we did not dare anyway'', said Crown Princess Mette-Marit during the opening.

Had it been today, we would have done it, but we are also pleased that it became Ingrid Alexandra, said the Crown Princess.

Crown Princess Mette-Marit opened the exhibition “The Queen’s Yes “, about the Queen’s role in the Norwegian Middle Ages, in Trondheim on Tuesday.

The Crown Princess opened the exhibition by unveiling the sculpture “Queen of the Middle Ages”.

The exhibition highlights the theme by emphasising three queens – and one that never became one: Margrete Skulesdatter, Eufemia of Rügen, Margrete Valdemarsdatter and Dyveke Sigbrittsdatter.

Article from TV2 with quotes translated by me:
Mette-Marit er friskmeldt
TV2's royal expert Kjell Arne Totland thought it was pleasant to see that the Crown Princess feels capable of representing again.

"The memory event at the University Aula was probably something she had been looking forward to and would not miss. I also noticed that she was very touched and had to use the handkerchief several times during the two-hour event,'' Totland said.

He also points out that while Mette-Marit is recovered, she showed signs of not being completely rid of the disease.

''The Crown Princess obviously takes her precautions after the dizziness attacks she has been bothered with this week. On her way out of the Aula, she chose to go outside the red carpet and instead use the handrail down the steep staircase.''

VG article with quotes translated by me:
Helseministeren roser kongelig engasjement for psykisk helse
"I am very grateful that the Crown Princess contributes to openness about mental health. We see that there are quite a few who still do not seek help even if they need it," says minister of health Bent Høie.

At the opening, Crown Princess Mette-Marit told the press that she was impressed with the work done at Lovisenberg. She is impressed with how users and employees have been involved in creating a building that is good to be in.

"The fact that Lovisenberg has been working to reduce use of coercion also says that the hospital has an additional pulling force when it comes to this patient group who needs a lot of focus," said Crown Princess Mette-Marit at the opening.

Royal House article with google translation:
Kronprinsessen besøkte Sex og samfunn - kongehuset.no - translation

She met the press and answered questions. - MSN article from VG with google translation and some quotes translated by me:
Mette-Marit: – Snakk med ungdommen om seksualitet - MSN/VG - translation
Crown Princess Mette-Marit visited today the ideal foundation Sex and Society. After receiving an orientation about the Foundation's efforts to promote sexual health among children and young people, it was an engaged Crown Princess who met the press.

"It is important that we are good at talking to our children about sexuality and sexual health. I think it is especially important today that you are very open about many things and there are many things you do not talk about at all and that are very shameful for very many," says the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess also thinks there is a big difference in how it was when she grew up versus what it is today.

"I think some topics have become even more tabooed. Youth today is more afraid to show off their bodies in fear of not being pretty enough or not good enough, because you are bombarded with so many pictures that are so perfect'', says the Crown Princess.
