  • Hamnarna I Österbotten Och Deras Specialisering Pohjanmaan Satamien Erikoistuminen
    Activity 3.5 (Port Study, Part I) Hamnarna i Österbotten och deras specialisering Pohjanmaan satamien erikoistuminen www.midnordictc.net SAMMANDRAG Sjötransporterna och hamnarna är av stor betydelse för Österbotten. Det fi nns fyra djuphamnar i Österbotten, de ligger i Jakobstad, Vasa, Kaskö och Kristinestad. Samarbetet mellan hamnarna i Österbotten och deras specialisering borde utvecklas liksom förbindelserna till och från hamnarna både till sjöss och på land. Det primära målet borde vara att de varor som produceras i Österbotten och de varor som importeras hit trans- porteras via de egna hamnarna. Det huvudsakliga målet med detta arbete var att utreda nuläget för de fyra djuphamnarna i Österbotten och deras specialiserings- och samarbetsmöjligheter. Utredningen genomfördes utgående från skriftligt material och fl era intervjuer. I samband med arbetet analyserades också sex olika sce- narion med hjälp av Frisbee-godstrafi kmodellen. De österbottniska hamnarnas ställning är baserad på geografi ska faktorer samt på att de svarar på olika ak- törers behov på ett bra sätt. Samtliga fyra hamnar är redan för närvarande mer eller mindre specialiserade och tillsammans kan de betjäna olika industrisektorer på bred basis. Även samarbetet med Sverige spelar en central roll för utvecklingen av hamnarnas verksamhet. Både i Finland och i Sverige upplevs det som viktigt att utveckla förbindelsen Vasa–Umeå. Tillväxtpotential för Kaskö hamn fi nns enligt godstrafi kmodellen bland an- nat i linjetrafi kens återkomst. Samarbetet mellan hamnarna i Österbotten och på östkusten i Sverige utvecklas också inom ramen för transportkorridorprojekten i öst-västlig riktning (NECL, NLC). Kaskö hamns viktigaste kund är den lokala skogsindustrin. Hamnens styrka är den fungerande hamninfra- strukturen, som lämpar sig väl för hanteringen av skogsindustrins bulkvaror samt ger möjlighet att hantera även andra produkter i fortsättningen.

  • Årsberättelse För Nykarleby Samskola 1968-1969
    NYKARLEBY SAMSKOLA LASARET 1968-1969 NVKARLEBV SAMSKOLA REDOGORELSE för läsåret 1968-1969 Avgiven av ERIK ÅH MAN 3 Då Nykarleby samskola den 30 maj avslutar läsåret, har skolan verkat i jämnt femtio år. Vi skall inte här redogöra för dess öden under det gångna halvseklet, men vi kan konstatera, att det i huvudsak varit en gynnsam tid för skolan. Som bevis för detta behöver vi bara nämna den utvidgning av läroverket, som just denna vår kulminerar i den första studentdimiss.io­ ;nen. Att skolan haft elva klasser under det nu gångna läsåret, visar att elevunderlaget varit stort. Dock må vi som redan i fjol påpeka, att den stora skolreformen, som är på kommande, skapar många problem för vår skola, vilket redan skönjes i det betydligt minskade elevantalet i lågklas• serna. Glädjande nog har dock totalantalet elever varit så stort som 281, vilket är nästan detsamma som föregående år. Beaktas bör dock, att anta­ let klasser i år varit elva mot tio i fjol. Eftersom skolhuset inrymmer bara sju klasser, har vi måst inlogera de övriga klasserna ute i staden, vilket också lyckats på ett efter omständig• heterna bra sätt. Då de högsta klasserna inhysts i de hyrda lägenheterna, har inte heller några större ordningssvårigheter behövt befaras. För gym­ nastikundervisningen har skolan ibland använt idrottsgården. De elva klasserna har gjort, att antalet lärare varit 19, också det ett rekord i skolans historia. Här må det med tillfredsställelse annoteras, att skolan haft flere kompetenta ordinarie lärare än på tjugu år. Detta kan kanske delvis bern på det nu fullständiga gymnasiet, som gjort det möjligt för oss att inrätta äldrelektorstjänster.

  • Architecture in Kvarken
    ARCHITECT URE I N K V A R K E N – TWO COUNTRIES - A WORLD OF CONTRAST Get to know the modern cities as well as the old wooden towns in Kvarken. During an architecture tour, you will get to know Kvarken from an architectural perspective, its history, as well as stories about people who lived and live along the coasts of the Gulf of Bothnia. Höga Kusten Umeå Vaasa Seinäjoki Kristinestad Pietarsaari/Jakobstad Kokkola Höga Kusten and Örnsköldsvik Örnsköldsvik, even called Ö-vik, is part of the High Coast and its fantastic nature. Naturum Höga Kusten - is designed by White Architects. Located in the shadow of the mighty Skuleberget. Naturum Höga kusten, is an attention- grabbing building inspired by the nature that surrounds it. Interesting geometric patterns and angular displacements give the building rich and varied expression. It is precisely the rough and anything but 90-degree feeling that characterizes nature on the High Coast. The High Coast is characterized by odd angles and variation in rhythm, scale and color. The glazed long side represents the ice. The inner concrete wall symbolizes the mountain. ArkNat – is a combination of architecture and nature. Architect students from all over Scandinavia were invited to create unique “art” that reminds of typical wind shelters in the nature. As result you will find nine fantastic creations, places to rest or to have a picknick, located along the 128 km long High coast Trail. Ting 1 – is residential building in Örnsköldsvik Ting 1 is designed by Gert Wingårdh, who was inspired by Bengt Lindström's art.

  • The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction
    The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction Tapani Tuovinen [email protected], [email protected] Abstract New archaeological, historical, paleoecological and onomastic evidence indicates Iron Age settle- ment on the archipelago coast of Uusimaa, a region which traditionally has been perceived as deso- lated during the Iron Age. This view, which has pertained to large parts of the archipelago coast, can be traced back to the early period of field archaeology, when an initial conception of the archipelago as an unsettled and insignificant territory took form. Over time, the idea has been rendered possible by the unbalance between the archaeological evidence and the written sources, the predominant trend of archaeology towards the mainland (the terrestrical paradigm), and the history culture of wilderness. Wilderness was an important platform for the nationalistic constructions of early Finnishness. The thesis about the Iron Age archipelago as an untouched no-man’s land was a history politically convenient tacit agreement between the Finnish- and the Swedish-minded scholars. It can be seen as a part of the post-war demand for a common view of history. A geographical model of the present-day archaeological, historical and palaeoecological evi- dence of the archipelago coast is suggested.
