I'm looking for information about the values in librarianship in Finland, especially the values in reference services. Perhaps there's even some information… 685 The Helsinki City Library has published Values of library work in it's pages, http://www.lib.hel.fi/page.asp?_item_id=2304 .

Our main values are the same as usually in the libraries, specially i could name equality, confidentiality, and of course quality (relevant answers) and delivering the answer within the time rate, as quickly as possible.

I am trying to find any information on a person I have been told was the conductor of the Helsinki Philharmonic. This person's last name was Garagusi and he… 681 Mr Einari Marvia and Mr Matti Vainio have written/edited the book about the history of Helsinki Philharmonic: "Helsingin kaupunginorkesteri 1882-1982" (WSOY 1993, ISBN 951-0-18312-1). I browsed briefly through the book but I couldn't find any mentioning of a person by the name of Garagusi there, I'm afraid. My advice for You is to try to contact the administration of the orchestra directly. They propably have some more detailed archives/files of their own and can possibly help You to locate the longed-for Garagusi there, if he should have visited the orchestra as a guest conductor, for example. The homepages of Helsinki Philharmonic are located at: http://www.hel.fi/filharmonia/english/index.htm

; I want you to help me to answer these two questions, please. a. What is the life span of the mitochondria? b. How many times does the malignant cell divide… 673 Mitochondria are found in eukaryotic cells and dependent on their mother cell. They can die if the mother cell is lost and are inhereted from one´s mother. Mitochondria have no shared life span because of dependency of their mother cells. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrion Malignant cell can also vary in types and behaviour. Therefore no certainty of their cleavage can be determined or is at least a target of scientific survey. http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Malignant+cell http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081203093816AAEquyj http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09553008514552561

I am looking for Finland's Employment Contracts Act in English. The number for the act is 320/1970. Can you send the web site or send it as an attachment to… 666 Unfortunately I could not find the act in English either. Finland being a bilingual country all the legislation is both in Finnish and Swedish, not necessarily in English. Now, I wonder, whether you are interested in this old act from 1970 or prefer an up to date statute. The fact is that the Employment Contracts Act has been totally revised. The new act 55/2001 came into force June 1, 2001 and replaces the act 320/1970. You can find it in Finnish or Swedish in http://www.finlex.fi/ , but of course it needs to be translated. The Library of Parliament is specializing in legislation, so I guess they might be able to help you. Their e-mail is: kirjasto @eduskunta.fi.

I want to know the trend of oil price next 2 years? 663 It is impossible to say anything reliable about the trend of oil price in forthcoming 2 years. The oil price has been going down rapidly recently and there is no end in sight. But after the price drop, the price will certainly increase again. Many specialists have been talking about the oil running out. Some say, that this is miscalculation. If the oil is running out, the crude oil price is obviously going very high. You can find a lot of information and speculation about the oil price. Here is links to some of the sites: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_depth/business/2008/oil_/default.stm http://www.wtrg.com/daily/crudeoilprice.html http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/weekinreview/20mouawad.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_oil
