Julia Lamberz, Thorsten Litfin, Özlem Teckert, Gunther Meeh-Bunse Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Management, Culture and Technology, Germany Abstract Background: If retailers and brand manufacturers of food succeed in presenting their products at the point of sale, quickly generating a high level of attention, the likelihood of a purchase is significantly increased. Particularly, in recent years, they have been relying on the megatrend of sustainability. The importance of sustainable food has grown accordingly. Hence, an increasing number of manufacturers are challenged to communicate the sustainability of their products via packaging and displays at the point of sale. Objectives: The aim of this article is: to examine to what extent the design of individual packaging and display elements of new sustainable direct juice succeeds in visually communicating sustainability aspects. At the same time the willingness to pay of customers interested in sustainability must be commercialized. Methods/Approach: The focus is on a real shopping situation in conditions that are as regular as possible. The perception of a display must be recorded by eye-tracking technology. A preliminary survey must examine consumers' attitudes towards

    RESEARCH REPORT VTT-R-03998-15 SAFIR2014 Annual Report 2014 Authors: Jari Hämäläinen & Vesa Suolanen Confidentiality: Public Preface The mission of the National Nuclear Power Plant Safety Research Programme 2011-2014 (SAFIR2014), derived from the stipulations of the Finnish Nuclear Energy Act, is as follows: The objective of the SAFIR2014 research programme is to develop and maintain experimental research capability, as well as the safety assessment methods and nuclear safety expertise of Finnish nuclear power plants, in order that, should new matters related to nuclear safety arise, their significance can be assessed without delay. The planning period 2011-2014 for the national research programme on nuclear power plant safety involved licensing processes for power plants that are in use or under construction, as well as overall safety evaluations related to licence terms. The construction works of the Olkiluoto 3 plant unit were proceeding, and the construction licence application of Hanhikivi 1 plant unit was to be left for evaluation. These processes are reflected in many ways on national safety research. Research on nuclear safety requires profound training and commitment. The research programme serves as an important environment providing long-term activity that is especially important now when the research community is facing a change of generation. During the planning period and in the following years, many of the experts who have taken part in construction and use of the currently operating plants are retiring. The licensing processes and the possibility of recruiting new personnel for safety-related research projects give an opportunity for experts from different generations to work together, facilitating knowledge transfer to the younger generation.

Guy Stanton Ford saw the university through a time of trial and challenge, when the country was being drawn into a second world war, never losing either the historian's broad view of human ex­ perience or the civilized man's deep insight into principle. Ford's service to the university already had been long and expert. In 1913 when he came to Minnesota as dean of the Graduate School he had had to deal with only 175 students. A decade and a half later the total number of individuals enrolled in its programs during the calen­ dar year had risen to 2164. In 1938 when Ford ended his deanship to become president the comparable enrollment figure was 3299. In a re­ cent year the total number of individuals registered in the Graduate School for fall, winter, spring, and two summer sessions reached 5676. During Ford's time the university itself had grown tremendously but while its figures increased five times over, those of the Graduate School were multiplied by thirty. So startling a change in outlook must be accounted for by a change in administrative policy.

Master’s Thesis, 105 pages Master Programme in Peace Mediation and Conflict Research September, 3 ____________________________________________________________________________ Abstract This thesis explores the transnational family life of Russian female migrants in Finland which is challenged by the possible misunderstandings in the transnational marriage. Such misunderstandings, as I propose, may be explained by the notion of mutual expectations of the foreign spouses. Their cultural backgrounds, social behavioural norms, gender order and personal traits make them look for a compromise and mechanisms of negotiation of their conflicts in their transnational relationships. Moreover, it is believed that more often cross cultural marriages and transnational families entail a greater source of family frictions, conflicts and misunderstandings than traditional nuclear families established in the local context. However, my fieldwork research revealed a different story, more subtle and more positive and free from
