AROUND HALF of the drunk drivers
sentenced to prison are allowed to
perform the sentence as community service in their free time outside
prison walls, reveal Statistics Finland?s statistics from 2012.
Last Friday, a citizen?s initiative
was submitted to Parliament, calling for harder sentences for drink
driving and improvements to referrals for alcohol treatment.
The initiative also proposes a
zero tolerance policy with a prison
sentence given already for the first
drink-driving offence, which would,
however, not mean putting a stop to
community service.
The proposal of tightening punishment as a general policy received

NOW,
we know from French
economist Thomas Piketty, author of the best-selling book Capital in the
Twenty-First Century, that
the growth of this concentration of capital is faster
than that of general growth,
which is a way to say that
these 85 people will continue to suck money from the
general market, and therefore the rich will become
richer and the poor will become poorer.
IN OTHER WORDS, what we
are witnessing is a progressive reduction of the middle
class, while we are rushing
forward to the past, and
the times of Queen Victoria,
when an obscure German
philosopher and economist
by the name of Karl Marx
was working in the British
Library in London on his denunciation of exploitation,
and preparing his Communist Manifesto.
THIS TREND is happening everywhere, and at every level.
The increase in sales of giant US retailer Walmart fell
from 5 per cent in 2012 to just
1.6 per cent last year. Under
Walmart?s pay plan, pay increases would only take effect after growth of 2 per
cent. They just received salary increase, as the
case of Dimon shows. Meanwhile, the average full-time
Walmart employee makes
27,000 dollars a year.
WORSE STILL is the case of
restaurants chains, which
are setting up a strong line
of attack to US President
Barack Obama?s idea of raising minimum wages (just
like they did in Germany).
Ever heard of a chain called
Chipotle Mexican Grill?

are that you did not know
that last year, Steve Ellis,
its co-chief executive officer, made 25.1 million dollars
while the other co-chief executive officer, Montgomery
Moran, made another 24.4
million dollars. James Dimon, the head
of JP Morgan, the world?s
largest bank, and with a 74
per cent raise in salary for
2013, considers regulations
?un-American?. So the new theology of the financial system
is that because it is impossible to make it safe, let us not
introduce regulations which,
Geithner says, ?often be
self-defeating.?
BUT
YET, until 1999, when then US
President Bill Clinton (culminating a process started by
Ronald Reagan) repealed the
Glass-Steagall Act which had
separated commercial and
investment banking for seven decades, we had nothing
of what we see today.
DEPOSIT BANKS were obliged
to use citizens. Now, all the money goes into speculation, and
as everybody knows, banks
have little patience with
small investors and citizens
because returns are much
smaller than from the various instruments of financial
speculation. How it is possible
to equate, for example, sloth
and gluttony with greed?
In the 1987 film Wall Street,
Gordon Gekko, a wealthy, unscrupulous corporate raider
played by Michael Douglas,
says that greed, not gluttony,
moves man. ?even if it seems to reward
incompetence and venality,
even if it fuels perceptions
of an out-of-control, moneyspewing, bailout-crazed big
government?.?
Geithner ?also offers
a law of unintended consequences. Speaking last week in London at

NCP to shift to the
right under Stubb, party
chairpersons view
The National Coalition
Party (NCP) is likely to shift further to the right following the
appointment of Alexander
Stubb on Saturday as its new
chairperson, the chairpersons of other political parties
estimate.
The appointment will also see Stubb succeed Jyrki
Katainen as Prime Minister.
Antti Rinne, the newly-appointed chairperson of the
Social Democratic Party
(SDP), on Saturday voiced his
hope that Stubb would abandon the idea of abolishing the
tax deductibility of the membership fees of trade unions.

commented.

during his campaign are impossible to carry out. explains Koolaji,
?but if they want to relate anything to the military, they
can do it.?
The reasons behind the
rejections are the sanctions
enforced by the European
countries against Iran. said

In addition, Räsänen
voiced her confidence in the
ability of the five ruling parties to continue their co-operation. ?Hopefully,

the main objectives of the
Government for the remainder of the term. he
reminded.
According to Haglund, the
main goal of the government
negotiations should be to determine which of the objectives agreed upon jointly by
the ruling parties have yet to
be addressed.
Päivi Räsänen, the chairperson of the Christian
Democrats, similarly called
attention to the liberal views
of Stubb. I believe it provides
us with room to grow,. ?One girl that has been
forced to exile was studying the effects of CO2 on the
environment, this is totally irrelevant to nuclear en-
richment,. It is claimed that he is aiming for one of EU?s major
leadership positions. His government has been viewed as unable to deal
with economic issues such as the increase in unemployment.
However, Katainen?s government adopted major reforms such
as decreasing Finland?s corporate tax rate and proclaiming to
renovate public health-care services. ?The National Coalition
took two steps to the right
. The appointment
of Stubb is a clear indication
that the National Coalition
is a liberal and market liberal party.?
In addition, the opposition leader cautioned that
the appointment is likely to
increase tensions in Finnish
policy-making, regardless
of how the outcomes of the
government negotiations are
communicated to the public. 31.6%

extremists pose an
increasing threat of violence
in Finland, the Finnish Security Intelligence Service

of ISIS.
?The visibility of ISIS is

of ISIS are more inconsiderate and typically more barbaric, and its members share
visual evidence of that online,. H S

?No one knows what they

?ISIS is fuelled by strong
religious dogmatism, whereas Jabhat al-Nusra operates
more strategically.?
Saarinen gauges that the
visibility of ISIS on the social media may explain its
popularity among Western
jihadists.
Altogether, an estimated
30?40 people are believed
to have left Finland to join
the fighting in Syria or otherwise support the cause of the
insurgents. According to Räsänen, it
is important to raise aware-
ness of the phenomenon to
enable families to detect the
warning signs and, if possible, to intervene.
In addition, it is necessary to offer support to people who return from conflict

insurance company, are not

After the accident, the
family were contacted by numerous people who all had a
loved one whose life had ended or changed drastically because someone had made the
decision to climb behind the
wheel after drinking. The
mother took the youngest
girl in her car, while the others carried on with their cycling trip.
?I remember how Matleena rode off on her bike, without a worry,. Many
of the people felt that the offenders had got off lightly.
After the ruling of the
Court of Appeal, Jorma Sonninen launched a citizen?s
initiative calling for tougher sentences for drink driving. The prosecutor
must request the Criminal

a report on whether the offender?s circumstances are
such that they are able to carry out community service.

all drunk drivers falling into this group. the
Sonninens say.
At the same time, the family had to battle for Hanna?s
rights. Lavikkala believes it
is vital that treatment for alcohol abuse is developed as
part of the justice system, in
collaboration with experts.
"That will help us make
people think about their behaviour and change it.?
A r tt u Ko kko n e n
The main reason for rejecting an application for community service is alcohol
dependence but this does not
lead to an automatic exclusion from community service programmes. The pain brought on
by loss and sorrow was crushing,. The mother also experienced feelings of bitterness
and hatred.
?At the police station, I
saw the wreck of Matleena?s bike. I
felt this awful rage, thinking
of what she had done to my
daughter.?
The driver sent the family
flowers and a card, apologising for what had happened.
The Northern Savo District
Court gave the 54-year-old
driver a sentence of two years
and seven months but the
Court of Appeal reduced the
sentence by five months, partly because the distance driven
by the woman was short.
?The ruling seemed insulting and difficult to accept.
It felt as if the surrounding
society was treating drunk
drivers with silk gloves,. Generally speaking, a driver causing
an injury while over the alcohol limit usually receives a
tougher sentence than a driver involved in a serious accident because of speeding.
"In a situation where a
driver runs over a pedestrian
on a zebra crossing in a town,
a driver who is drunk gets a
longer sentence than a driver who drives too fast even
though both took a conscious
risk,. The girl, who is now
18, still suffers from neck
pain. says
Jorma Sonninen.

IRANIAN Foreign Minister Javad Zarif has revealed
for the first time that Iran
has made a detailed proposal to the P5+1 group of states
aimed at ensuring that no
stockpile of low-enriched
uranium would be available
for ?breakout. stationed near Mosul reportedly ran from an initial
ISIS offensive that may have
numbered just 800 men.
. Kurds: The autonomous
government in the Iraqi region of Kurdistan has rallied
its own forces, known as the
pesh merga, to combat ISIS. he said.
Zarif challenged the view

coverage that the Rouhani
government is under strong
political pressure to produce
results in the talks that would
remove the worst sanctions.

The plan would involve
the immediate conversion of
each batch of low-enriched
uranium to an oxide powder that would then be used
to make fuel assemblies for
Iran?s Bushehr reactor, according to Zarif.

. through enrichment to weapons grade
levels.
In an exclusive interview
with IPS, Zarif described an
Iranian plan, presented at the
meetings with the P5+1 last
month in Vienna, that would
exclude weapons grade enrichment. Despite billions of dollars spent by the
United States in training the
post-Hussein army, it suffers
from poor organisation and
morale. It describes
one of those guarantees as
?immediate conversion of
all enriched uranium to fuel rods to preclude even the
technical possibility of further enrichment.?
The US-educated Zarif
said he had developed that
2005 proposal himself when
he was Iranian Ambassador
to the United Nations, after he had consulted with a
number of American nuclear scientists on ways to reassure the Europeans and the
US that Iran could not enrich
enough uranium to weapons
grade for a nuclear bomb.

combined Iraqi and Iranian

city of Tikrit.
. Since 2005, he has
served as Iraq?s president,
and has had a testy relationship with Maliki.
. all of which
would be ?designed specifically to meet the requirements of
the Bushehr reactor.?
Zarif revealed that the
Iranian plan for guaranteeing that Iran could not have
a nuclear weapons capability
is very similar to the proposal that Iran made to a meeting with the European three
(UK, France and Germany) in
Paris in March 2005.
The proposal, which was
later published by the Iranian government, included a
series of ?technical guarantees. Turkey: ISIS has reportedly captured several Turkish
diplomats, as well as other Turks, in Mosul. Von Hippel, former assistant director for national security in the White
House Office of Science and
Technology and now a professor at Princeton University, confirmed in an e-mail
that he had been part of a
small group of American scientists and others who had
met with Zarif to discuss the
problem of how to provide
assurances that Iran?s civil nuclear programme would
not be used to support a nuclear weapons programme.
Von Hippel said his rec-
ollection was that the group
had suggested ?not building up a stockpile but rather
shipping [the low-enriched
uranium] to Russia to make
fuel for the Bushehr reactor.?
Peter Jenkins, then the
UK permanent representative to the International
Atomic Energy Agency, participated in the 23 March
2005 meeting at which the
Iranian plan was presented.
?All of us were impressed
by the proposal,. The Europeans did not accept it as the
basis for negotiation, however, because the George W.
Bush administration had
insisted that Iran not be
allowed to have any enrichment whatsoever, according
to European diplomats involved in that earlier phase
of negotiations.
Zarif rejected the Obama
administration?s
position
that Iran should obtain whatever reactor fuel it needs for
Bushehr or any future reactors from Russia or other
foreign sources rather than
relying on its own enrichment capabilities. Iraqi army: The Iraqi army

Zarif reveals Iran?s proposal for
ensuring against ?Breakout?
plies that the oxide power
would be sent to Russia, at
least for several years, rather
than remaining in Iran.
The previously undisclosed
Iranian plan is part of a broader negotiating stance that insists on the need for a large
increase in the number of centrifuges it would have in the
future . This gives the conflict
an even more dangerous and
sectarian edge, something
of the enriched uranium produced by the consortium.
After the Islamic Republic resumed the nuclear programme begun by the Shah,
however, the French government prevented Eurodif from
supplying any enriched uranium for nuclear fuel for the
nuclear reactor at Bushehr in
the early 1980s.
The US State Department
acknowledged in 1984 that
it had not only ended its own
nuclear cooperation with
Iran but had ?asked other nuclear suppliers not to engage
in nuclear cooperation with
Iran, especially while the
Iran-Iraq war continues.?
The foreign minister
ruled out the acceptance of
the P5+1 proposal in the last
round of negotiations, which
reportedly would limit the
number of Iranian centrifuges to a fraction of its present
total of 19,000.
?We?re not going to redefine our practical needs,?
he said, referring to the language in the Joint Plan of
Action agreed to last November calling for agreement on
an Iranian enrichment programme whose ?parameters. said Zarif.
Zarif said the US insistence on Iran?s ending of all enrichment at its Fordow facility,
which is located in a tunnel under a mountain, is based on
?the argument that you can?t
have this facility, because otherwise we can?t bomb it.?
The implied assertion of
the right to bomb Iranian facilities ?strikes the wrong
chord in the Iranian psyche
and produces exactly the opposite reaction,. Renewed protests
and unrest in Kurdish towns
in Turkey make the situation
all the more delicate.
those by former State Department proliferation official Robert Einhorn, as well as some of
those made in the negotiations

said, adding that they ?amount
to creating expectations that

?It will be much more productive if everyone involved
refrains from shaping the debate in a way that [it] will be

fears of a growing regional
conflagration. ?They gave

United States and its negotiating partners have rejected.

number of centrifuges, based
on the argument that Iran

Zarif said he could not discuss the details of the Iranian

about his body and health devotedly already for two years.
He straps an apparatus the size of a matchbox
around his biceps muscle, as
he does every day. +358 44 744 1922

am and where I?m going,. In addition to longdistance running, he goes
weight lifting, swimming,
diving, bicycling, down-hill
skiing and golfing. The gadgets, he says, are
accurate enough for recreational use.
Being a single man, Vehviläinen has time for his
passion. Later, he realised that not all data is
transferred between cell
towers. Recording, saving
and analysing the data consumes most of his free time.
The results he posts online
for everyone to see.
Why?
?I want to improve myself. On an average he burnt 682 calories
more than he consumed every
day. He
did not fall asleep until 2:15 am,
An index finger placed on
your wrist and a watch with
a second hand used to do the
trick; today, heart rates are
measured with heart rate
belts and smartphones.
In fact, modern equipment has made monitoring
one?s vital functions so simple that it has grown into
a phenomenon. LIFESTYLE

Vehviläinen monitors the

rate belts, two pedometers,
a smart wristband, sports
watch and smart shorts.
Moreover, virtually every gadget requires another
device to display the results
and transfer them between
a cloud service and the host
device. The secondary device
is generally a smartphone ?
Vehviläinen has five, because
the app for smart shorts for
example is only compatible
with Android devices. Vehviläinen has invested
over four thousand euros in
self-tracking equipment and
. Finland is already home to companies such as Suunto, Polar,
Beddit, Firstbeat, Myontec,
Omegawave, ActPRO, Aino
Health Management, Emotion Tracker and Runteq.
Vehviläinen is also a former Nokia employee, who
in his doctoral dissertation
studied data mining in mobile networks. he says.
The growing popularity of self-tracking, Arina
estimates, is partly attributable to the fact that several electrical engineers and
mobile developers have ventured into the domain after
their exit from Nokia. 3 JULY 2014
Urho Kekkosen Katu 1, 3rd floor Tel. He is also
a body combat instructor and
has a brown belt in jujitsu.
Vehviläinen is employed
as a consultant at Accenture and develops and tests
health and fitness equipment
for a living. The small
body analyser beeps.
More and more such selftracking devices, Vehviläinen believes, are beeping and
buzzing in Finnish homes.
Modern equipment
has made monitoring
one?s vital functions
very simple.

The biceps muscle is stretching the cuff fastened around
it as a buzzing blood pressure
monitor pumps air into the
bladder of the cuff.
Pekko Vehviläinen sits at
his kitchen table, unfastens
the cuff and peers into his iPad, which is connected to the
blood pressure monitor with
a cable. In Finland,
self-tracking geeks have a
closed Facebook group with
some 1,800 members and
flock to self-tracking events
in greater numbers than in
many other countries, reveals Teemu Arina, a non-fiction writer and an expert in
digital futures.
In particular, he says, Finns
are eager to monitor their sleep,
physical activity and weight.
According to the Finnish Institute of Occupational
Health, self-tracking has also been recognised by companies, lift manufacturer
Kone being one of several
to encourage its employees
to exercise with a variety of
tracking devices.
Some refer to the hobby as
biohacking, but Vehviläinen
considers the term too technical and misleading. The reading on the
screen is 137/75.
The systolic pressure is
slightly elevated, and Vehviläinen knows why. Overall, he uses 11 apps.
Naturally,
Vehviläinen
concedes, it would be more
convenient if all the devices could communicate with

He gets up from the kitchen table, takes four eggs from
the fridge and breaks them.
He removes the egg yolk and
weighs the whites on a kitchen scale to make sure the portion is exactly the right size.
He eats the same meal every
morning; a protein-rich breakfast keeps his biceps firm.
In April, Vehviläinen used
the equipment to lose 2.4 kilos
of body fat, falling 300 grams
short of his target. H S

health records, concluding
that despite their diet high
in animal fat, the Greenland
Inuit were less susceptible
to heart disease than other
populations.
For decades, the conclusions reached by the Danish researchers were taken
as evidence of the consumption of oily fish and fish oil
being beneficial in reducing
the risk of cardiovascular
disease.
The health records used
as the material of the original
study have, however, proven flawed. H T
FINNS now have the rare opportunity to savour the taste
of one of the oldest existing beers in the world . says Kristiina Kurki-Suonio, the director of
marketing at Stallhagen.
Bottle number 1 will be
auctioned off on the Facebook page of Viking Line,
with the sales proceeds
to be used to fund marine
archaeological research.
?Further studies must be
carried out because only little is known about the beer
and its origin,. Scientists are looking into health
effects of fish protein,?
Schwab explains.
One factor may be that
people who consume fish
several times a week tend to
eat less red meat, which is
known to increase the risk of
coronary artery disease.
R i o G a n da r a / H S

Five bottles of beer were salvaged from a nearly 200-year-old shipwreck found off the Åland Islands in 2010.
Pauliina G rö nh o lm . says Mats Ekholm, the master brewer at
Stallhagen.
The historic beer has been
produced at the beer laboratory of the University of Leuven in Belgium because wild
yeasts must be processed in
a strictly controlled environment due to their propensity
to spread. acknowledges Riikka Alvik, a marine archaeologist at NBA.
Shipwreck research, she
underlines, should be public
and also contribute to historical research.. dubbed Stallhagen Historic Beer 1842 . The micro-brewery has developed
the recipe for its special brew
. In contrast, fish oil capsules may
even be harmful to human
health.
For a long time, the common notion has been that the
prevalence of heart disease is
much lower among Inuit than
most western populations,
which has been attributed
to the Inuit diet traditionally
being rich in oily fish and other sea food.
According to a new study
published in the Canadian
Journal of Cardiology, the
traditional Inuit diet may
not help stave off heart disease as has previously been
believed.
Trawling through studies on the health and nutrition of Inuit populations in
North America and Greenland, an international research team found that the
Åland brewery revives
170-year-old beer
belief that the heart disease
rate in these populations is
exceptionally low was mainly based on studies published
by Danish researchers Hans
Olaf Bang and Jørn Dyerberg
in the 1970s.
Bang and Dyerberg
made several expeditions to
Greenland to study the Inuit lifestyle and local public
ing unknown.
Later studies have revealed that the Inuit who
stick to the traditional diet suffer from heart disease at least as commonly
as non-Inuit populations
in Greenland, Canada and
Alaska. ?It?s similar to wine,?
he describes.
A limited edition of 2,000
numbered bottles of Stallhagen Historic Beer 1842 will
be made available aboard Viking Line cruise ships this
week for a price of 113.50 euros per bottle. H S
A leksi T ei vainen . It must?ve
been a finer beer.?
According to one theory,
the beer had been ordered
abroad for the Christmas celebrations of officers.
While
the
National
Board of Antiques (NBA) reproached the decision to sell
the champagne bottles retrieved from the wreck, it
has no objections to the recreation of the historic beer.
?By recreating a researched
beer, it?s possible to animate history and to present
the food and drink culture
of yesteryear,. Oily fish does not
seem to prevent heart disease among Inuit.
Recent research data
have also raised questions
about the beneficial effect of
fish oil supplements. H S
N iina W o o lley . The micro-organisms
in the beer found in the
wreck have been used in the

19 JUNE . Ursula
Schwab, an expert on nutrition therapy from the University of Eastern Finland,
says that fish oil capsules increase the blood LDL cholesterol level, interfere with
glucose metabolism and contribute to an increased risk
of type 2 diabetes.
Currently, the consumption of fish oil capsules is only recommended to patients
with coronary artery disease
who for some reason cannot eat fish but, according to
Schwab, this recommendation may soon be scrapped as
recent studies have failed to
provide support for it.
Even though fish oil in itself does not help battle
heart disease in Greenland
or Finland, eating fish is still
good for the heart. or,
something very close to it.
Stallhagen, a brewery
based in the Åland Islands,
has recreated an authentic
replica of 170-year-old beer
salvaged from a 19th-century shipwreck discovered off
the island village of Föglö in
the summer of 2010.
The 5 bottles of beer and
145 bottles of champagne retrieved are believed to date
back to 1842?1846. As part of
a healthy, balanced diet, both
oily and low-fat fish help decrease the risk of death from
cardiovascular disease even
though researchers have not
yet established the mechanism behind this beneficial
effect.
"Fish contains something else that is beneficial to
health besides the fat. ?The beer has

bottles retrieved from the

Several new studies have raised questions about the benefits of taking fish oil supplements.
Inuit diet does not protect
against heart disease . fish oil
capsules may even be harmful
FISH is good for the heart,
even if researchers do not
know the mechanism behind
its protective effect. No modern cultivated yeasts were available
at the time of the production
of the original brew.
The beer tastes fresh and

?It?s a Belgian wild-yeast

The beer tastes fresh and fruity, and lacks the hoppy notes of contemporary beers almost entirely.

pitch belies his deadly combination of size, strength,
quickness and control. Instead, they lost to tiny regional rivals Uruguay.
This defeat is still considered
a national tragedy. They
are attempting to defend
their World Cup title and become the first team to win
four consecutive major tournaments (they have also won
the last two European Championships). This was all before
teams led by Pelé and Garrincha won three out of four
World Cups between 1958
and 1970. On
the field, England?s youthful squad looked good in a
2-2 warm-up draw against
Ecuador and could upend
the nation?s for-once low expectations. These two will
square off in the group opener, which has the potential to
devolve into the ugliness of
the 2010 title match. Brazil crushed them
3-0 in the final of the Confederations Cup last year, a
normally meaningless tournament that took on actual significance when the two
2014 favourites met in the final game.
The group also contains a
potent Chile squad and 2010
runners-up the Netherlands.
Chile has a brilliant forward
named Alexis Sanchez. So everyone else in
Group A . You should
also know that Brazilians are
not happy with hosting this
World Cup. The
Netherlands are probably the
weakest of the three favourites, but any of them could
win the group and make a run
to the final in the non-Brazilian half of the draw. The team is made
up largely of players from
archrivals Real Madrid and
Barcelona. The team has won
it twice more since, in 1994
and 2002, and has the most
victories of any nation with
