"Keys to Top Breeding Vol2" comes out as an Ebook, because many - especially Americans - have hoped so. The book is still also available as a hard cover version. In the messages many have said that this is the best book for breeders ever. For me books are like movies. Some touch your brains, some your heart. How can you compare those? The main thing is that they touch! I hope you have touchable reading moments.
For most dog owners and exhibitors, dog show judges are those rather distant figures who are assess their dogs, give critiques and, if all goes well, hand out prizes. But what do judges really think about the handlers and the breed standards? And how do they feel about the common belief that their decisions are sometimes based on who is holding the lead, rather than on the actual quality of the dog being shown? How do judges define what makes a "good" or "bad" judge? We also hear how top handlers and successful breeders view judges and their role in the dog world. Even the photos of judges, breeders and handlers in this book are quite unlike anything we usually see about them. We hope you enjoy reading - already putting the book together was at the same time fun and educational! Pekka Hannula & Marjo Nygård
Joulun taikaa kahvila Koivussa. Joulu saapuu Pyhävirran kylän lumisiin maisemiin ja tuo mukanaan uusia käänteitä. Kristiina Kivimaan arki on asettunut kahvila Koivuun. Kun kylä alkaa vetää lisää turisteja puoleensa, Krisse tarttuu tilaisuuteen. Järven rannalle aukeaa maalaishotelli Koivu, jonka vieraita hemmotellaan vastaleivotulla taatelikakulla. Hotellin ja kahvilan pyörittäminen rinnakkain on kuitenkin täyttä työtä. Kun hollantilaiset lumilautailijat jäävät kiinni lumimyrskyyn, katot vuotavat ja sähköt katkeilevat, Krissestä alkaa tuntua, että hän on haukannut liian ison palan. Kunnanjohtaja Tommi tuntuu kumman etäiseltä, sadan vuoden takaiset tapahtumat alkavat...
Kristian Gullichsen, Erkki Kairamo and Timo Vormala have created over the years a partnership grounded on individual differences and on a fundamental agreement on what should be and can be, today, the mission of architecture. Each one of their executions is the description of a small adventure, as well as a familiar place, steeped in recollections and expectations. Whether it be an industrial plant, a town centre or a public housing district, located in a city centre, a suburban district or along the seashore, each design proves that to express an idea what is needed is not rhetorics but clarity. The book ranges from the first less-known buildings of the seventies, still bound to the prefabr...

Alexander Hillebrandt s. 21.12.1716 Uppsalassa aloitti sotilasuransa 15-vuotiaana Ruotsin armeijassa. Hänen isänsä Johann Michael Hillebrandt liittyi KaarleXII armeijaan karoliinina ja yleni lopulta sodissa kapteeniksi. Johann taisteli mm. Mälkiällä, Napuella ja selvisi elossa hyiseltä kuolemanmarssilta eli Norjan sotaretkeltä 1718, jossa Kaarle XII sai surmansa. Monien sotien rasittamana Johann kuoli vuonna 1720 Ruotsissa. Hattujen sodassa venäläisiä vastaan Alexander Hillebrandt ylennettiin varusmestariksi 1941 ja samana vuonna vielä majoittajaksi. Sodan jatkuessa Alexander ylennettiin lippumieheksi v. 1742. Silloin hänet siirrettiin Porin rykmentin Ruoveden komppaniaan ja hä...

The biography of Margaret Darling Kilpinen (1896–1965) represents the fields of music history and women’s studies. It brings forth a woman who is of pliable but also strong character. She was active for over four decades in the musical life of Finland. What kind of professional role, combining performing and pedagogical work, was she able to build for herself? She was the wife of a well-known, strong-willed composer who had many ties to Germany, and also the mother of a daughter. How was she able to keep up her own artistry? The book deals with Margaret’s role as a solo and lied pianist, her long career as a pedagogue in the Sibelius Academy and as a harpsichord player with a part in the rise of old music in Finland in the 1930s. There is also the microhistorical angle: While looking at Margaret as a person and her life, general tendencies and attitudes among the cultural circles of Finland of her time are revealed. The main source material for the book, which is available for use for the very first time, has been the correspondence between Yrjö and Margaret Kilpinen.
This volume brings together scholarly theories and practices on speculative fiction from the Nordic countries, including Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, that are all rooted in similar values, culture, and history yet are independent and unique societies. The book exhibits both the convergences and the diversity of the Nordics in fiction and fandom as well as in research. It traces the roots of Nordic speculative fiction, how it has developed over time, and how the changes in Nordic environments and societies caused by overhanging shared global issues – such as climate change, mass migration, and technological acceleration – find space in speculative practices. The first of...
