Zooplankton lecture and lab work
Zooplankton are a group of small animals that are found in natural running and standing waters. They are important for the equilibrium of aquatic environment as they constitute principal food source for small fishes and others larger animals (insect larvae for example) and also they help to decrease the amount of bacteria and small algae in the water so that every thing remain in a relatively stable state.
In the pictures are an example of net that we used to collect zooplankton from the lake and the group of students for this course, also are there the lecturer and the expert invited.

- Two week ago, I was invited by the coordinator of our international degree program to welcome new students during two days introduction session at Konnevesi research station. The program was at the same time very relax and thorough. The outcome was a study plan of students and for me a pleasure to speak about my own experience to new students with whom I have been given one hour of discussion in the program.

We have had nice sauna moments, sausage burning and the best among all, a nice tour by boat on the lake toward a nearby island. The new students were very satisfied according to their sayings I we wish them the best. Now the challenge is in our hands to begin this new year with enough motivation and show we deserve the trust put in us.

Finland and weather

I can't retain myself to from writing this new post on my blog, as a souvenir of the beautiful nature changes I am presently having in Finland.
We are almost mid September and an amazing scene is happening already outside there, a scene you never see so beautiful if you are not in such a boreal environment: The trees are changing their colors, passing from from green to red.
The reason for this is not well known by myself, but I think I read somewhere that it might be due to sulfur ascent from the soil.
I any case, mother nature changes and wear new attire as a woman ready to get married with the person she has always been dreaming of her whole life, as if the world would end the next day.
As I admire this colors and gifts from the nature, I can't stand hanging out as much as I can, taking pictures and contemplating flowers, insects, birds and trees.

Rich and Poor (Average) : differences in mindsets

I have just come across this publication in the Finnish newspaper Kauppalehti and wanted to post it here and share with those who may be interested to get rich. A study has came out with 21 differences between rich people and average people:  

1. Average: money is the root of all evil, and just - rich: poverty is the source of evil. 
2. Average: selfishness is a vice - rich: selfishness is virtuous. "The rich are not using to save the world. They are trying to make themselves happy. " 
3. Average: lotto mentality - rich: action mentality. "Masses rely on prayer to enrich themselves. Large minds to solve problems. " 
4. Average: formal education - rich: the practical expertise. 
5. Average: looking to the past - rich: dreams of the future. "People who believe in the best days of the past, but are not enriched in the accident and suffered from depression." 
6. Average: money is a feeling - rich: money is the logic. 
7. Average: searches only the livelihoods of their work - rich: follow her passion. 
8. Average: set a goal down, not fail - rich: always seeks challenges. 
9. Average: to enrich themselves need to do something - rich: to enrich you must be something. "Multitudes want immediate results of their actions. The rich gather to learn that the situation in the future unabated, even though it would be a misfortune. " 
10. Average: need money for getting rich - rich: use the money of others. 
11. Average: market management strategy - rich: guided by greed. 
12. Average: live beyond their means - rich: skimp. 
13. Average: teach children to survive - rich: to teach their children to prosper. 
14. Average: money is stressful - rich: money brings peace. "Wealthy people are not afraid to admit it, that money really solves many of the problems." 
15. Average: entertainment ahead of self-improvement - rich: learning entertainment ahead. 
16. Average: snobeja rich - rich: thrives like-minded individuals. 
17. Average: focus on saving - rich: focus on earning. 
18. Average: play it safe - rich: knowing when to take a risk. 
19. Average: likes comfort - rich: to find the comfort of the uncertainty. 
20. Average: not bound by money and health with each other - rich: to know that money can save a life. 
21. Average: you have to choose between family and wealth - rich: to know that you can get both. "Masses have been brainwashed to believe that it would be either or question."
