Satellite navigators are becoming increasingly common and more sophisticated, but drivers would do well to remember that they are no substitute for common sense.
GPS-run satellite-navigation (sat-nav) systems for cars, once restricted to certain areas, is now becoming available to drivers globe over. One indication of this is that the NaviFeed service offered by Finnish company Foreca now provides weather updates, forecasts and animations for any part of the world.

The left has been criticised, quite justifiably, for the misguided positions of decades past. But almost all of those now hauled into the dock of history simply wanted to build a better world and were naive. It often strikes me as unreasonable and a little absurd when I am called to account for events in some other country that occurred before I was even born.
At the same time as the chairman of the Left Alliance is asked for a confession regarding matters from decades ago, nobody calls to account those who only a couple of years ago blindly placed their faith in completely free markets.

Acupressure mats have found their way to Finnish homes.
Gone are the days when spike mats only brought to mind scenes of long-bearded fakirs lying on beds of nails. The household version of this ancient Indian remedy is becoming a common utility also for Nordics seeking ways to relieve their pains and stresses. The mat, consisting of no fewer than 6,510 plastic spikes placed in yantra-shaped discs, promises to release energy and hormones by stimulating the body’s acupressure points and as a result provide relaxation, ease muscle and joint pains and tensions, improve your circulation and help you fall asleep. Reportedly, it has even helped some people get rid of their back pains and injuries.

ON 31 AUGUST, the Greens released its position on compulsory military service for public debate in the run-up to next year's election. A Green army would operate with far fewer reserves – 75,000-150,000 – than is currently the case. The reduction would result in savings in the form of fewer garrisons, for example.
The Greens' model would see the current system of compulsory military service gradually replaced with voluntary service. If too few volunteers came forward, the service could resort to the draft, as was used in the Grand Duchy of Finland in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries.
