Published: 20 December 2011
Fifty per cent of the total volume of wood material used in Finland in 2010 was burned. Twenty-two per cent of the wood material was tied up in paper and board, 11 per cent in sawn timber, 3 per cent in wood boards and 6 per cent in exported pulp. These data derive from the use and mass balances in the Forest accounts compiled by Statistics Finland.
Tying up of wood material in end products in 1990-2010
The large proportion of fuel use is mainly due to the combustion of the forest industry's wood wastes, such as bark and spent liquor. The proportion has not fluctuated notably in the 2000s although the share of burning has also grown due to increased use of forest chippings in energy production.
The volumes of used wood material have been calculated as dry matter. For example, the average dry matter content of fresh raw timber is 43 per cent. The forest industry's spent liquors contain approximately 70 per cent and board an average of 65 per cent of dry wood matter. In addition to wood matter, paper and board also contain diverse coating and filler substances.
Forest accounts are compiled from statistics produced by the Finnish Forest Research Institute, Statistics Finland, the Finnish Forest Industries Federation, and the National Board of Customs on the supply and use of wood, and from related national accounts figures for the period between 1990 and 2010.

Are there drivers who swear by staying in shape?
Yeah, Jimmy Johnson, my teammate, runs 13 miles a day. I mean it's ridiculous. He's spending all this money on these special bikes. [He'll say,] "I bought this new bike, it's 2 grams lighter." And he'll get on that bike with a couple of guys and they'll ride 60 miles after practice on Saturday.
The Blackhawks own Chicago right now. Do you see any similarities between hockey and racing, particularly the fights?
It's just human nature, I think. You get angry. Maybe you've had issues with the same guy over and over. That tends to be how most of these sentiments spill over outside the car and get physical and when the drivers are having confrontations is when something is repeatedly happening between you and a guy, and you've kinda gotta put your foot down.
Have you ever been in a fight in your career?
No, I haven't been in a fight since high school. I'm really nonconfrontational when it comes to that, but everybody has their breaking point, I suppose.
How close have you come?
I don't think there's ever been a time when I've been angry with another driver that I didn't THINK about going over there and punching him in the face. [Laughs.] But you just don't do it.
If you were to win the Chase without winning a race, how would you feel?
It'd be nine-tenths; there'd be something missing. The ultimate prize obviously is the championship, so we'd obviously celebrate. Not having won a race … that would be in every article. Anytime you mention it, that would be the asterisk. It wouldn't be too bad, I guess, to be the champion. I'd rather go through that than come as close as Carl Edwards did where they basically tied and it came down to wins.
What was it like shooting a video with Jay Z?
I think back on that and still can't believe that happened. It almost happened so fast that we didn't really get to enjoy it. His people called our people and said "do you want to be in the video?" Of course we said yes. We were racing in New Hampshire, I got on a plane when the race was over and flew straight to Monaco. I got off the plane at 8 o'clock in the morning. I couldn't sleep because I was so excited. We shot the video all day long, deep into the night. We had dinner, stayed up till 3 in the morning, got on the plane and came home. So I was in Monaco for 18 hours or whatever.
What were your impressions of him?
He's a total, professional, straight-up businessman all the time. But when we were cutting up and shooting the video, he was really candid, very easy to chat with and approachable. I walked away happy to have met him and found out what kind of person he was. He's definitely a positive role model, not only for guys who love his music but for businesspeople. He's killin' it.
Did you meet Beyonce?
She did walk up in the middle of her shopping trip, and it was really nice. She joined us at dinner and she was really, really pleasant.
Do people see you at red lights and want to race you?
Nobody looks beside them at red lights anymore. I do, but I'm looking at them and they're never looking at me. We were driving down the road the other day and I drove past this guy that had a Dale Jr. hat on. I was trying to get his attention just to say hey 'cause I thought it'd trip him out, but he never looked. [Laughs.]

Volvo Concept Universe – Click above for high-res image galleryIt seems everyone and their cousin wants a slice of the big pie. Mercedes-Benz has the S-Class, BMW the 7 Series, Audi the A8 and Lexus the LS. Then there's less conventional choices like the Jaguar XJ, Maserati Quattroporte, ...
Volvo is looking to gain a foothold in the fast-growing Chinese auto market, and the Swedish automaker is hoping to pique interest in the brand with a range-topping luxury sedan concept. The design aims to incorporate the simplicity of Scandinavian design while also trying to discern what the ...

Hi all,
Someone I know has asked for my help with a fish tank...
Here are the facts
1. They have a 10 gal fish tank and NOTHING else, except water I suppose. I assume std dims.
2. They want fancy guppies.
3. They know nothing about fish or plants.
4. They want the tank to have plants.
5. They want LOW maintenance. Not much time or expertise...
6. They want the tank to look like one of my c02/EI tanks Especially the 220 that Tom scaped as they like that one the best, so I am unsure if Tom needs to come do it or not.. Perhaps I can ship to him and he can ship back scaped
I will use flourite for substrate as the ADA will cause too much work for them. I can use water sprite and java fern/mosses for plants. I can cut them a tiny manzy branch as well I hope. They like the tree effect, so I will see what I can do for them...
So, I need suggestions for a simple T8 or T12 light and a decent easy to maintain filter, I guess an HOB of some kind. Or I guess any new type of light, whether LED or whatever.
They have zero money to spend so I will be supplying some of the hardware, but even the cost of replacement filter pads, etc must be considered.
I am thinking even a large sponge filter driven by a whisper air pump. That way they can just rinse the sponge every few days.. Low fish load (at first lol ) and heavy planting will also help. Or, perhaps a large sponge over a whisper HOB intake. That will save the pads from getting dirty as quickly.
Long time since I did such a low effort tank. Should be fun and I like these folks, so want to help them out with something half decent.
Thanks in advance...

Although apicomplexans are a widely recognized and important parasitic group, little is known about those associated with invertebrates, such as reef-building scleractinian corals. To resolve the potential impact of apicomplexans on coral health, it is first necessary to further describe this group of putative parasites and determine their prevalence among host species. Here, it was hypothesized that apicomplexan prevalence would vary seasonally, similar to what occurs in other marine apicomplexans as well as some coral symbionts. To test this, Caribbean scleractinian species Porites astreoides, Montastraea (=Orbicella) annularis, M. (=O.) faveolata, and Siderastrea siderea were sampled seasonally from two reefs each in the Florida Keys and the Bahamas for 9- and 5.5-year periods, respectively. Utilizing a PCR-based screening assay, apicomplexan DNA was detected from most Floridian (80.1 %: n = 555/693) and Bahamian (90.7 %: n = 311/343) coral tissue samples collected over these multi-year periods. Furthermore, apicomplexan DNA was detected from nearly all (98.7 %: n = 78/79) single polyps sampled at multiple locations within six M. faveolata colonies, indicating little to no intracolonial variation in the screening assay. Mixed-model logistic regression was utilized to determine the effects of season, host species, and reef on apicomplexan prevalence. The model identified a significant seasonal effect, with the highest apicomplexan prevalence occurring during fall. There also was a large effect of host species, with apicomplexan prevalence significantly lower among S. siderea colonies relative to the other species. While reef did not have a significant effect in the full model, there was a significant difference in apicomplexan prevalence between Floridian and Bahamian reefs for S. siderea, implying regional differences in this host species. Despite seasonal and species-specific differences in prevalence, apicomplexans are ubiquitous constituents of these particular scleractinian coral species from Florida and the Bahamas.

Arizona Cardinals
Michael Floyd a bright spot in Cards' loss to Packers
It's hard to find silver linings in the midst of a five-game losing streak extended by a 14-point loss to the Green Bay Packers.
But for the Arizona Cardinals, there are several as the team heads into their bye week, dragging a 4-5 record with them.
Green Bay managed to sack quarterback John Skelton only twice despite being tied for the league-lead in that category heading into the game. Rookie left tackle Nate Potter replaced starter D'Anthony Batiste and played well facing three-time Pro Bowler Clay Matthews on several occasions.
Skelton himself, played relatively well, completing 23-of-46 passes for 306 yards, marking only the third time in his career that he's eclipsed the 300-yard mark. If not for a boatload of dropped passes, his passer rating of 69.7 would have been much higher.
And then there was the play of rookie wide receiver Michael Floyd, who tied a career-high with five receptions for a career-best 80 yards. Late in the game, Floyd made an acrobatic 37-yard catch against good coverage by Green Bay corner Davon House. It was the longest catch of his young NFL career.
So did Floyd think this was his best performance to date?
"Yeah, I think so, if you go by stats, and you know, it's all about executing," Floyd told Arizona Sports 620's Paul Calvisi in the locker room after the game. "My job here is to catch the ball and whenever they ask me to do something, I'm doing it."
Some have been quick to judge the Cardinals' selection of Floyd with the 13th overall pick out of Notre Dame last April as a bad one. The 6-foot-3, 225-pound receiver has been slow to get into the swing of things and considering the Cardinals' struggles on the offensive line, many felt (after the fact, mind you) that Arizona would have been better served investing in a tackle with their pick. Floyd, who has 10 catches in the last two games, hasn't let that shake his confidence.
"My confidence level is high, it's all about getting used to the speed, getting used to the game and getting used to becoming a pro," Floyd said.
Floyd got an opportunity to play more after fellow receiver Early Doucet dropped two passes, frustrating head coach Ken Whisenhunt.
"It's disappointing, it's very infuriating," Whisenhunt said. "We had opportunities to keep drives alive and you can't do that, not on the road against a team like this. There's no excuse for it -- no excuse to not catch the ball."
That wasn't a problem for Floyd, who was targeted seven times in the contest.
"They expect me to make plays when the ball comes to me, and I expect to catch the ball every time it comes my way," he said.

WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. – Baseball is called America's "National Pastime." But the way the game is growing, it should be referred to as "The World's Pastime."
The sport has rapidly spread around the globe and especially taken root in Latin America. Countries that have especially adopted the game as growing elements of their culture include Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela.
A ball and stick are starting to rival the popularity of a soccer ball and net, giving children the dreams of going to America, where it's common for major league players to earn millions of dollars to swing a bat and catch a ball.
"One of my priorities – one of the game's priorities – is the internationalization of baseball," Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig recently told reporters. "We're doing everything we can to move the sport in an international direction. I think it's going to be absolutely spectacular."
At the end of last season, 42.6% of all minor league players were natives of countries outside the United States and 80% of them came from two countries: the Dominican Republic and Venezuela, according to ESPN.com.
But many in Latin America do not understand how the game works.
A game lasts nine innings, each consisting of a top and bottom half. The visiting team bats in the top of the inning, while the home team hits during the bottom portion. Each half-inning lasts until the fielding team records three outs. Outs happen when a player catches a ball before it hits the ground, tags a runner with the ball if he's not on first, second or third base or has the ball when he touches a base before a runner who is forced to advance reaches it.
Each hitter gets an unlimited number of pitches to try to hit a ball into play, which is between the first and third base lines. However, if a hitter draws four balls – pitches determined by the umpire not to have crossed over the plate, known as the strike zone – he automatically advances to first base. But if a player gets three strikes by swinging and missing the ball or not hitting a pitch judged to be in the strike zone by the umpire, he's out. The strike zone is an area over home plate between the knees and front jersey letters of the batter.
If a player hits the ball, but it is not in play and not caught before striking the ground by the fielding team, it is a foul ball – and counts as a strike. Hitters, however, cannot earn a third strike by hitting a foul ball, meaning a hitter could hit 20 foul balls and get yet another pitch.
If a player hits the ball over the outfield fence on the fly, it's a home run, and he – and anyone who is on base – runs around the bases and steps on home plate. Teams are awarded one "run" for every player who touches first, second, third and home plate – in that order – in the same half-inning.
Whichever team is leading after nine innings is the winner. If the game is tied after nine innings, the game continues with alternating at-bats until one team is ahead at the end of the inning.
The complexity of the rules is frustrating for some new fans, but it hasn't prohibited the game from exploding in Latin America.
"In Venezuela, in the Dominican, in Colombia, in Panama, they love it because they don't have anything else to do," Detroit Tigers designated hitter Carlos Guillén, a native of Maracay, Venezuela, told ESPN.com, "Everyone is either going to baseball games or trying to play baseball. You see kids in the streets playing baseball with paper balls, trying to make baseballs out of anything just to play ball in the street. There, they close the street to play baseball. Here, you're not going to see that."
Once players reach America, their dreams turn to focusing on advancing through an extensive minor league system, where the best players are promoted to the major leagues. Major League Baseball is composed of two parts – the American and National Leagues.
The National League is comprised of 16 teams and three divisions – the East, Central and West. The American League, which has 14 teams, also has an East, Central and West.
The biggest difference between the leagues is that while pitchers bat in the National League, the American League features a designated hitter to bat for the pitcher.
At the end of the 162-game regular season, each division winner and the league's second place team with the best record make the playoffs. The first round, known as the Divisional Series, is a best-of-five series. The winning teams advance to the Championship Series, a best-of-seven series in which the winner advances to the World Series. The World Series is one of the biggest events on the American sports calendar. The team that wins the best-of-seven series is declared the season's champion.
Baseball's format likely will never change, but the flair injected by the dozens of Latin American players in the major leagues has proved the game's boundaries extend well beyond the United States.
"Our guys definitely play the game different," said Juan Samuel, the third baseman for the Dominican at the 2007 World Baseball Classic, told ESPN.com. "We're more flashy. We probably enjoy it more – because that's all we do. Kids in America are playing soccer, playing hockey, playing golf. You don't see guys from the Dominican playing in any golf tournaments. You don't see guys from the Dominican getting scholarships to play golf."
