the prosecutor estimates
that SPR consequently received roughly 17,000 euros
in unjusti?ed subsidies. His defence counsel,
Petteri Sotamaa, believes
the charges stem from a misconception conveyed by an
MTV3 programme, according to which Rautonen orchestrated the overhaul of
the Blood Service?s supply
chain for personal gain. Thus far,
authorities have brought 20
people from Finland, Viet-
AN
nam, China and Germany in
for questioning and detained
three on suspicion of aggravated arrangement of immigration and aggravated
human traf?cking.
?The suspicions of aggravated human traf?cking
surfaced during the interrogations. explains Esko Repo,
the director of the service?s
asylum unit. (SPR) Blood Service, stands accused of misuse of a position of trust in
a trial that began with a preparatory hearing at the District Court of Helsinki on 14
August. Meanwhile, the defendant pointed
out that the development of
the supply chain, undertaken by a consultancy ?rm, has
reduced SPR?s costs notably

recognition.

Indeed, the Tampa Bay

black gunshot victims were
more likely than whites to be
carrying a weapon when they
were killed and were more
likely to be committing a

economists. They believe
both this year and next will
be worse than other prognosticators. Because they
didn?t expect the sharp downturn during the early months,
they had forecast our economy would grow 0.3 per cent in
2013 and 1.8 per cent in 2014.
It is likely they will revise their
estimates downwards.
The Finnish Finance Ministry cut its forecast for the
economy when they realised
the situation. by the end of the
year, and the Finance Ministry predicts ?moderate
growth. They believe growth
will return next year, but the
unemployment situation will
remain poor.
?The prospects for employment growth will remain
bleak into 2014, among other reasons due to sluggish
demand and labour market
mismatch problems,. The bank says many
of our problems are not simply due to the recession, but
systemic weaknesses in the
economy itself.
?Problems in the economy
that were previously thought
to be temporary, cyclical
phenomena have now been
shown as more permanent
and structural in nature,?
says bank director Erkki Liikanen in their Economic Outlook statement.
He explains that the export industries of electronics and paper show no sign
of recovering, and domestic spending is largely fuelled
by increased debt. Unfortunately, Nordea hints that our
unemployment rate will continue to go up throughout the
year. They say the decline will only be 0.5 per cent
this year, and the economy
will expand by a healthy 1.5
per cent next year. Services
were ?at, but primary production like forestry improved 1 per cent.
Almost all economists
are predicting that growth
will return to Finland before
the end of 2013, although
estimates vary about how
strong our recovery will be.
The Bank of Finland says
our economy will ?grow
gently. 28 AUGUST 2013

A city on the run
ON 17 AUGUST, the 33rd edition of the Helsinki City
Marathon saw thousands of
runners invade the capital
for a day of effort, sweat and
fun, in one of Finland?s biggest sports events.
A stretch of 42,195 metres along some of Helsinki?s
most beautiful areas, runners competed against one
another in a joyful atmosphere ?lled with refreshment, music and a cheering
crowd.
Looking ahead, on the last
day of the month it will be
time for another competition
marked on the calendars of
runners across Finland: the
Helsinki Midnight Run.
While spring is the season of the Helsinki City Run,
summer is all about the Helsinki City Marathon. This
year, 5,500 marathon runners from around 60 different countries and 2,000

truly new and unique for their
diners . The smoked salmon
burger turns out to be way
bigger than what?s on offer at
your average fast food chain
burger and leaves us overall
satis?ed, although the crabcarrot-pickles mix in combination with the Dijon- and
Chili-mayonnaise turns out
to be quite intense and thus
overpowers the salmon ?avour. We meet Food and Beverage Manager Ari Eilola,
who explains to us the concept of the restaurant:
?The main idea is, that
not we, but you de?ne your
food experience on your own.
We have a quite extensive
menu with ?ve different cuisines . The
friendly staff gives a short
operation instruction and
takes our drink orders, with
both of us going for orange

smooth, meaty rissole particularly goes along well with
the Dijon-mayonnaise, giving a quite unconventional

Meanwhile, in perhaps the
strongest entry this week,
The Conjuring shares with us
the tale of a demonic entity
that lays claim to a family living in a secluded farmhouse.
Prompting them to seek the
aid of two renowned paranormal researchers, word
has it that this tale of possession was inspired by actual
events.
Director James Wan
has gone from strength to
strength since his shocking debut Saw in 2004. With
news that he is to helm the

next year, he seems to have

DIRECTOR Steven Soderbergh surprised many with
his announcement earlier
this year that he was quitting
the movie business. Perhaps the ?nal straw
came in the shape of the release of his most recent effort, Behind the Candelabra.
With its content considered
to be ?too gay. by the majority of ?lm studios, it was via
cable TV network HBO that
he was ?nally able to get the
?lm made.
Europe is a different story, however. Furthermore, he also uses a violoncello piccolo
and a copy of a Montagnana
FILLING the impressive surrounds of Temppeliaukio
Church, the sounds of cellist
Mauro Valli enveloped his audience on Monday 19 August.
Born in Sant?Agata Feltria, Valli descended from
the school of the Toscanini?s favourite cellist Camillo Oblach. 28
August sees American singersongwriter Matthew E. Based on Dostoyevsky?s novel, here a gambler
runs his life into a dead end
over his mounting debts and
unrequited love.
Plenty more is on offer
around town. This week in
Finland the tale of the ?amboyant pianist Liberace (Michael Douglas) and his
long-term partner, Scott
Thorson (Matt Damon)
makes it to the big screen,
with the duo having received
numerous accolades for
their performances. Alli was also
on hand to greet people after

Oldman uses this as an opportunity to in?ltrate the company of his chief rival, under the

EXPAT VIEW
Valentine Kuria is a Kenyan nurse living in Finland.

My short history in Finland
and my future expectations
is Valentine Kuria
from Kenya. My teachers were
lovely and it was a nice place
to be. I was eagerly waiting to come to the
land of a thousand lakes, best
ranked with affordable and
quality education.
I came here to pursue my
long-time dream of studying nursing. I studied in Seinäjoki University of
Applied Sciences, of which I
am proud. It was still
bright. which I had never heard before. I said
MY NAME
to myself that this was truly a land where the sun never sets, until the true reality
struck when the cold winter
knocked in 2009. I
have always dreamt of taking part in charitable work:
bringing happiness to the depressed, restoring hope to
those on the verge of losing
hope in any part of this world,
starting with Finland and
Kenya, my motherland. I was told
that was one of the coldest
winters experienced in this
land for a period of 20 years.
The experience was new
and tough within the ?rst
?ve months. Finnish people and people from all other
communities are welcome to
make my dream come true.
God bless you. I am grateful to God
for being on my side throughout the journey. It was always
my dream to visit Finland
since I heard and read about
it from the Internet. Taking the thick
gloves off my hands to open
the door was a problem. Falling down on the slippery
ground had become the order
of the day but I knew that after some years I would reap
the ripest fruits of my labour,
waking up in the dark and
coming back home in the dark
during wintertime. When I arrived
at the airport in Vantaa, I
knew my journey had begun.
The ?rst experience started there when I heard people
conversing in a strange language that was not related
to my mother tongue or English, the so-called ?Finnish
language. Our
friendship is still strong. CLASSIFIEDS & SERVICES

happy moments until graduation day, and they were at

my dear husband, Anthony Kamau, who has been my
pillar and source of joy since
we got married in December 2011, my darling parents
back home, my brothers and
sisters and the entire Finnish community for shaping
my life.
I have received this education for free and I must
give back to the community,
