I understand that your family has a rich history here in

Over the past 300 years
many families have moved to

It was dif?cult to take responsibility as an employer, based
on ?grants?. situations: a revolution and a war. I managed to talk
the investors to continue
providing the cash ?ow and
got more involvement. Why. Some people at Yle were
still angry because of my extremely subjective metro

that the funding of the expensive picture might be a bit
more manageable because of
these circumstances. Still, we suffered from the

The changes in industrial

of clothing labels bearing the
names of major Western retailers like Walmart, H&M,
Gap, Primark and others who
outsource their production to
Bangladesh to avail themselves

As a result, the proposed
Bangladesh Building and Fire

companies to conduct independent safety inspections,

the costs for needed repairs.
It also requires them to
stop doing business with any
factories that refuse to make

workers and unions to have a

close the US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay and
announced the lifting of a
three-year-old moratorium
on repatriating Yemeni detainees to their homeland
and the appointment of senior of?cials to expedite the

like Anwar Awlaki, a US-born

said that he would engage
Congress on the possibility of
establishing a secret court in
the executive branch.
On Guantanamo, where
102 of the 166 remaining detainees are participating in
a three-month-old hunger
strike, Obama said he would
permit the 56 Yemenis who

the Smash Asem incident is any hint of how Finnish authorities would react, things could get interesting. The supposed
trigger for the unrest was the fatal shooting of a 69

Striving to create a better

Though many people
still go for print, others have
started purchasing electronic books and reading them
on tablets, smartphones and
e-readers. On the bus, in the
metro, on the plane: reading
has never been this easy or
such a personal experience.
E-book sales continue to
increase. Prices vary depending on the product?s speci?cs
(tablets are usually more expensive, as they also include
internet and other functions
typical of mobile computers),
while the most common for-
mat for electronic books are
.pdf, .epub and Amazon?s own
.azw.
For consumers, e-books
have de?nitely started to
change reading habits. According to the OECD, 36 per
cent of e-books are read on
computers, 22 per cent on mobiles, 21 per cent on e-book
readers and the remaining 21
per cent on mp3 players.
Probably the biggest advantage for users of e-books
is the ability to share them
across several devices. Despite these numbers,
the OECD (Organisation for
Economic Co-Operation and
Development) has reported
that ?e-book sales still make
up only a small proportion
(around 1 per cent for 2010)
of book sales in most OECD
countries outside the United
States?.
While the popularity of
e-books has had an impact
on print sales worldwide,
e-books have also brought
about new business models
and advantages for authors,
as well as an innovative user
experience.
The book industry seems
to be shifting from a wholesale model to new models.
If in the ?rst, typical of the
printed book sector, authors
usually get 15 per cent of the
total sales, the same percentage for distributors, 40
per cent for bookshop and
the remaining 30 per cent for
publishers. In the ?rst half of
2012, e-book sales accounted approximately for 20 per
cent of worldwide revenue
at four of the ?ve largest
publishers.
The world?s largest general interest trade book publisher, Random House, for
example, saw its e-book
sales skyrocket up by 89.1
per cent. reading
habits.
ed 22 per cent of sales worldwide and 27 per cent in the

MUCH has been written
about aloe vera, a green plant
with spiky leaves originating from North Africa. Widely used in natural cosmetics
and alternative medicine, aloe vera is considered no less
than a miracle plant.
However, in light of speculations considering the possible toxicity of aloe vera
plants, no solid scienti?c evidence has been provided in
complete support of the positive effects of aloe vera juice.
This has led to a debate over
whether aloe vera juice might
be more poison than potion.

were presented during
the annual SLEEP conference 2013 reveals
that avoiding fatty foods
is the key to maintaining
high energy levels during the course of the day.
In particular, healthy
volunteers spent four
days in a sleep lab, while
researchers kept track
of their dietary habits,
sleeping patterns and fatigue levels.
It was observed that
volunteers consuming
foods rich in fats were
more likely to experience
daytime drowsiness; on
the other hand, carbohydrate consumption
was found to be positively linked with alertness.
Protein-rich diets were
not shown to have any
effect on either alertness or drowsiness. Finally, one should

Instead, buckwheat, the

Buckwheat, sensitive

SOLUTION ON NEXT PAGE.. Being totally lost, clueless and
helpless is a truly humbling
experience which at the time
can feel like the worst thing
ever. The language perplexes you and the climate
freezes you to your bones,
not to mention the abruptness of the people. You can?t simply pack
your bag and move on when
it all becomes too much. I?ve managed to
travel in Nepal on bus roofs,
Cambodia by ox and cart and
cut through the heart of China by train. I can tell you now that
this is a waste of life. Thrust
yourself out of your comfort zone and you will ?nd
how much more exists beyond your imagined boundary. In many ways the latter is far more challenging
and ultimately more ful?lling. I was ?ying high
thinking that Finland would
be a piece of cake compared
to the chaos of India or corruption of Myanmar. Weather the initial storm
of confusion and panic and
you will grow taller than you
even thought you could be.
Finland will soon become my
comfort zone and I dearly
hope at that stage I still have
the courage to take on something new.
