The need for food aid in Finland has doubled during the corona pandemic. Operation Open Door led by Jarmo Teräsheimo is a necessary, but unknown to many, link in the food aid chain.
The best deal for you depends on what you value. When comparing electricity contracts, in addition to the price, you should think about, for example, your own need for security or financial flexibility.
Exchange electricity seemed expensive, but Paaso expected the price to drop in the summer. The family tried to reduce the electricity bill by scheduling laundry and dishwashing at night. At that time, electricity on the exchange has traditionally been cheap, because the demand is lower.
– In the end, the price didn’t drop much even on some nights. I thought that I had to take a fixed-term fixed-price contract so that I could predict the price a bit.
In the new contract, the family pays the same price for electricity for two years. Paaso is satisfied with his contract, because he noticed that the price of a similar contract doubled the very next day. If the prices drop within two years, the new contract has a clause that allows him to switch to a cheaper contract.
The record high price of electricity has made even more people think about their electricity contract.

According to LUT University, Sykkö will have an impact as a working life professor in the future, especially in Lahti, where there are many textile and furniture industries. Sykö’s know-how is intended to be used, for example, in the development of business cooperation and marketing education.
Sykkö says that he plans to start a series of interviews with top managers, where students will get to hear how business is done.
– In order to reach the young generation, I am becoming Finland’s first Tiktok professor, says Sykkö in the LUT University press release.

Sykö’s working life professorship is made possible by cooperative banks in Päijäthämä, which support the professorship with a total of 140,000 euros.
The investigation into the apartment building fire in Mukkula, Lahti in July, has ended. The police do not suspect a crime in the case.
A faulty heater did not cause the July apartment building fire in Lahti’s Mukkula. The investigation of the apartment building fire on Timonkatu has been completed.
Previously, the fire was suspected to have originated from the stove. However, in the statement of the forensic laboratory of the Central Criminal Police, it is stated that no traces or faults explaining the ignition of the fire have been found in the electric stove.
The stove is unlikely to cause a fire. The sauna was built in accordance with the regulations, and there are no indications that the residents of the apartment had any part in starting the fire.
In the investigation of the cause of the fire, it was not possible to establish a clear cause of ignition. The investigation also did not reveal anything suggestive of a crime or negligence that would make the police suspect a crime.
Several localities are in trouble with ever-increasing rat populations. There are many reasons for the proliferation of linetails. A responsible person may be looking in the mirror when glancing at it.
Rat sightings have increased in cities and smaller towns as well.
For example, in Lahti, the city has already received fifty notifications from different parts of the city this year. On an annual basis, it is the same as last year and the year before that.
He thinks that because of remote work, people are more alert and contact the authorities more sensitively. Social media may also play a role in increasing attentiveness.
From the number of notifications, you cannot directly draw conclusions about the number of rats, but according to Sami Niemelä, the problem is real. There are more rats, and they have started to be seen during the day as well.
– Many things affect. For example, 2020 had a really mild winter, which has created favorable conditions for rats to reproduce.
In Lahti, information events are planned for the autumn for residents to curb rat problems.
The city carries out prevention measures in its own land areas. In housing stock companies, it is advisable to report rat sightings to the plot owner or property manager. In detached houses, the property owner is responsible for his own living environment.
According to Niemelä, it would be important for residential areas to join forces in eradicating rats. Cooperation makes prevention more effective and costs can be shared. Pest control is not cheap, especially if it has to be done over several years. The price tag may then rise to thousands of euros.
Rodent poisons were removed from the reach of consumers in 2018, and the city is also commissioning professionals to take stronger control measures. Rats have been repelled in Lahti, both near the market and in residential areas outside the city center.
Currently, poisonings are being carried out, for example, in Etelä Lahti near supermarkets and eateries. Construction works, such as the construction of a storm water system, set rat populations on the move to look for new places to live.
The area also offers favorable conditions for the reproduction of whitetails.
Kare Seppälä has worked in the field for over 30 years. The change in the law related to rodenticides can be seen at work.
– There has been a great rise in the last five years. When private individuals are no longer allowed to use poisons, the only option left for them is to offend.
A rat is omnivorous, it eats almost anything. Seppälä says that humans can influence how often rats search nearby roads to roost.
The most important thing is to keep the living area and yards clean. Put the garbage in its proper place and make sure that the garbage containers are closed and the canopies are in order.
– There is much more to do than poisoning. First we prevent and limit, then we poison, says Seppälä.
