A meeting was held in Tartu and elderly people were carrying the flags, nationalistic speeches were told and patriotic songs were sung. Tears were rolling down people's cheeks. The Estonian flag is hoisted every morning at sunrise and lowered at sunset. The national anthem of Estonia is called My Native Land, My Pride and Joy. It was composed in 1848 by Friedrich Pacius. The words were written by Johann Voldemar Jannsen. It was performed in 1869 in the first Song Festival in Tartu and it gained popularity during the national movement. It was adopted as the national anthem in 1920, after the World War I. The melody of the anthem is the same as the Finnish have. During the Soviet time the anthem was banned and My Native Land, My Dearest Love was the unofficial anthem but people carried the real anthem in their hearts. Lions were first used as Estonia's heraldic emblem in the 13 th century when

The Whips have a great amount advantages since they are act as intemediaries between the FB-s and the BB-s and so they can have an effect on which BB-s get promoted. Sometimes there are free-votes where every MP votes according to his beliefs. Bill Law Before a bill becomes a law it will go through many stages in the Parliament. First reading formal announcement without any debate. 2nd reading The house debates about it on general principles and takes a vote. Committee stage A committee of MPs examines the details and votes on changes to parts of it. Report stage The House consideres the changes. 3rd reading The amended bill is debated as a whole. After that the bill is sent to the House of Lords where it goes through the same process. After both Houses have reached agreement

Engineering, Technion Israel Institute of Technology Consultant: Roode Liias- Professor and Dean, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Tallinn University of Technology Title: Integration of Lean Construction and Building Information Modelling Archived: University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Construction ABSTRACT This research can be divided into two. The first part investigates the current state of the construction industry, while the second part looks at new emerging business models in particular, Lean Construction (LC) and Building Information Modelling (BIM), as well as an integration of these two. Given that the construction industry does not have a particularly good reputation among the public, the first part of this thesis focuses mainly on this problem and its sources. It is the reason why we need
beyond the field of software design and into general social interaction. According to the authors of the latter, there must be at least two key elements present to formally distinguish an actual anti- pattern from a simple bad habit, bad practice, or bad idea: · Some repeated pattern of action, process or structure that initially appears to be beneficial, but ultimately produces more bad consequences than beneficial results, and · A refactored solution that is clearly documented, proven in actual practice and repeatable. Often pejoratively named with clever oxymoronic neologisms, many anti-pattern ideas amount to little more than mistakes, rants, unsolvable problems, or bad practices to be avoided if possible. Sometimes called pitfalls or dark patterns, this informal use of the term has come to refer to classes of commonly reinvented bad solutions to problems. Thus, many candidate anti-patterns

Estonians have developed many world famous programs and software, examples of this are Skype, TransferWise, Kazaa. Estonia holds the record for start-ups per person. Skype’s success had a huge effect on other rising Estonian entrepreneurs. Estonian government has turned its society into an e-society with electronic tax-filing, internet voting, electronic health records and now with e-residency. Estonia is the first country to allow e-vouting in a general election. The transportation infrastructure includes 1018 kilometers of railroads but only 132 kilometers of electrified rail lines. There are 10 935 kilometers of paved roads, including 75 kilometers of expressways. All international flights use the Tallinn Airport, and there are several ports on the Baltic Sea, the port of Tallinn being the third largest in the Baltic Sea. Economic factors
The glint rises to its highest point (56m) at Ontika. Estonia has over 1,500 islands. The largest of them are Saaremaa, Hiiumaa, Muhu and Vormsi. There are over 1,400 lakes in Estonia, biggest being Lake Peipsi and Lake Võrtsjärv, while the deepest is Rõuge Suurjärv. The two longest rivers are the Võhandu and the Pärnu and the widest is Emajõgi. About 50% of the country is covered by forests while wetlands cover 30%. The landscape of Estonia, through covering a small area, is varied and unique. Lake Peipsi is Estonia's largest lake and Europe's fourth largest freshwater lake. 5. Symbols The flag The Estonian blue-black and white national flag was originally the flag of the Estonian Students' Society and was consecrated in Otepää Church in 1884. Today there is a memorial plaque on the church wall commemorating the event. The Flag Museum, opened in an annex in 1996, attracts tourists who take an interest in the history of the flag

Covering only 45, 228 sq km it is slightly bigger than Denmark, Belgium or Switzerland. Estonia's population is under 1.4 million. The official language is Estonian but since very many Russians live here Russian is also wide spread. The capital of Estonia is Tallinn. The currency used in Estonia is Eesti kroon. The Estonian national flag is blue-black-white. It was originally the flag of the Estonian Students' Society. The flag was first consecrated in Otepää Church in 1884. For a while, during the Soviet occupation, the flag was banned but it was again seen in public in Tartu in May 1988. The national flower is cornflower, the national bird is barn swallow and the national stone is limestone.
It helps to keep in touch with friends and world. This is one of the main causes why social media platforms can exist. Large group of users being active in the community and almost doing „work“. By sharing i mean users can create profile about themselves. Upload an image of themselves. Create albums where they can post gallery of their recent travel for example. Users can add events on their timeline. Whether they have engaged or marries, getting their first kid, moving to another city or graduating a degree. They can share a video within facebook, with is upladed in their servers or post a new one with youtube, vimeo or another video sharing platform which has enabled embedding. Same goes with text. Recently when facebook has given out APIs, it has become possible to share information with other programs and platforms aswell. For example users can log into their instagram account
9 globally, and negative demographics will continue to worsen the situation if needed measures, like increasing the general pension age, are not taken. The end of cheap gas By the mid-2000s, Russia had reached several conclusions on energy and money that started to rock Ukraine's position. The much-needed energy efficiency demanded a huge change in the whole of economy and society--as in Ukraine--a process known in Russia as modernization. The first necessary condition for modernization was to raise domestic gas and consequently power prices. A roadmap for doing that was accepted in late 2006, and an evident conclusion emerged. If Russians had to pay more, there was no reason why Belarusians, Ukrainians, and others should continue to be subsidized. The simple Russian proposition has had dramatic consequences for Ukraine. Ukraine's terms of trade would change from a windfall to a downpour of cold rain. And Ukraine had not

legally restrict access to higher positions, which provide higher income. Innovative e-Services and even mobile-based services are hallmarks of Estonia's market economy. Estonia as also called as „e-Estonia“ is one of the most advanced e-societies in the world, offering services like e-elections, e-healthcare, e-school, etc to make people lives more simple and convenient. For example in 2014 Estonia became also the very first country to offer e-Residency digital citizenship. For using the services, people have the ID card which is the key to almost every innovative e-service in Estonia. Estonia’s aim has been to be modernized and innovative country and that is why the goverment has not hesitated to increase the expenditures of innovation by a considerable amount. Moreover, the Internet in Estonia has one of the highest penetration rates in the world. According to Statistics Estonia,
The body of all written works including books is literature. In novels and sometimes other types of books (e.g. biographies), a book may be divided into several large sections, also called books (Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, etc.). A lover of books is usually referred to as a bibliophile, or, more informally, a bookworm. A store where books are bought and sold is a bookstore or bookshop. Books can also be borrowed from libraries. In 2010, Google estimated that there were approximately 130 million unique books in the world. Etymology The word book comes from Old English "bc" which itself comes from the Germanic root "*bk-", cognate to beech. Similarly, in Slavic languages (e.g. Russian, Bulgarian and Macedonian) "" (bukva--"letter") is cognate to "beech". It is thus conjectured that the earliest Indo-European writings may have been carved on beech wood. Similarly, the Latin word codex, meaning a book in the modern sense (bound and with separate leaves), originally meant "block of wood".

influencial countries like China and USA. This essay is about criticism to IMF and World Bank. Critics of the World Bank and the IMF are concerned about the ‘conditionalities’ imposed on borrower countries. Often the conditionalities are attached without due regard for the borrower countries’ individual circumstances and the prescriptive recommendations by the World Bank and IMF fail to resolve the economic problems within the countries. As a example author is using Ecuador that is a small country in South America. In 1968- 1998 IMF and World Bank interviened with large loans to help the country but the growth of poverty increased form 50% to 70%, under or unemployment 15%to 70% and the public debt grew from 240 million to 16 billion (Perkins, 2004, lk 239). This essay is going to explore how this kind of thing could have happened? The idea is not to blame well-known organizations. The idea is to observe and
Public International Law is a system of law, different from domestic law. Why is this system unique? Usually law regulates relations between people, people and the state etc, PIL regulates relations between states. Thats why PIL is important for international relation students. PIL influences the life of everybody, it doesn't regulate people directly but indirectly (through the decisions of the states), because it's everywhere. It's like air. E.g. when you want to send a letter to Brazil, you put a stamp from your own country and send it from your post office and the

After the death in 1419 of Holy Roman emperor and king of Bohemia Wenceslas IV, Prague was ruled by various Hussite committees. In 1420 combined Hussite forces led by military 8 commander Jan Zizka successfully defended Prague against the first anti-Hussite crusade, launched by Sigismund, the Holy Roman emperor, during the Battle of Vítkov Hill. In the 1420s a split developed in the Hussite ranks between radical Taborites, who advocated total war on Catholics, and moderate Utraquists, who consisted mainly of nobles who were more concerned with transforming the Church. In 1434 the Utraquists agreed to accept Sigismund's rule in return for religious tolerance; the Taborites kept fighting, only to be

There are very many species in the States. There are about 17 000 types of trees (larger plants) in the mainland and Alaska. Over 1,800 species of flowering plants are found in Hawaii. The United States is home to more than 400 mammal, 750 bird, and 500 reptile species. About 91,000 insect species have been described. In America, there are very many parks, which 58 are national parks and there are hundreds of federally managed parks, forests and wilderness areas. The first national park in the world was Yellowstone national park in Wyoming. The flora is so diverse in America because of the different climates and good weather in some places (like California). Many species became extinct soon after the first settlements. The U.S. climate is temperate in most areas, tropical in Hawaii and southern Florida, polar in Alaska, semiarid in the Great Plains, Mediterranean in coastal California and arid in the Great Basin. The droughts and floods are infrequent in America.

This year the World Bank and the International Finance Corporation published a joint research Doing Business 2011, under which Georgia ranks 12th among 183 countries in terms of Ease of Doing Business. Moreover, Georgia surpasses 174 counties in terms of reformation of business regulations since 2005. Last but not least, Georgia ranks first in the Post-soviet space, excluding the Baltic countries, in terms of counter-corruption policy. It is worth noting that de- spite the current difficulties related to the global financial crisis, Georgia managed to overcome economic challenges due to economic liberalization reforms. In this direction, Georgian Govern- ment made several important steps: Tax -The administration of tax and customs systems has been simplified. The number and rates

explaining his or her reasoning for making this or that conclusion. Estonian history, then, is in need of greater inclusion. Taking a look at Toivo Raun's Estonia and the Estonians or Seppo Zetterberg's Eesti Ajalugu, it is apparent that the authors leaned more towards using Estonian, German, Finnish, and English language sources, likely the sources with which they were more familiar or to which they had easier access. What about Russian language sources? If an author wrote about a subject, should not general historical works and historiography should include the author's writings? One of the challenges which confronts historians is a lack of access to sources, whether it be due to poor language skills or inaccessible archives. In order to read primary and secondary sources, Estonian historians must be adept in such languages as German, Russian, English. Some areas of research may even require Võro, Swedish, Polish, Latvian, Yiddish, Finnish,
an ideology), rather than as one of several useful perspectives for PA reform (i.e. part of a pluralistic approach). The question here is more whether one favors post-NPM (anti-NPM) or post-post-NPM, Weberian-based PA, the latter being the most advanced, and the most sophisticated, and now called the Neo-Weberian State (NWS). What was an option ten years ago is not an option anymore today. I would say that in PA · in 1995, it was still possible to believe in NPM, although there were the first strong and substantial critiques · in 2000, NPM was on the defensive, as empirical findings spoke clearly against it as well · in 2005, NPM is not a viable concept anymore Yet, in many areas, both of scholarship and of the world, as well as in policy, NPM is very alive and very much kicking. It is, therefore, necessary to look both at the concept itself and at the reasons for its success. Basic Problems of the New Public Management
the same time, the lifestyle of the nobility and other Baltic Germans became far more refined. Taking advantage of the economic boom, they erected grand neo-classical mansions surrounded by splendid parks which adorn the Estonian landscape even today. Influences of Pietism and the Moravian Brethren Being joined to Russia did not mean isolation for Estonia. It belonged to the German cultural sphere and was therefore able to participate in pan-European cultural and spiritual movements. During the first half of the 18th century, the influence of Pietism grew in strength, no longer hindered by the ideological pressure of the Swedish absolutist monarchy. The number of Baltic German students increased in Halle, the centre of German Pietism. One of the leaders of the movement, August Hermann Francke, also dispatched Pietist pastors to fill the numerous teaching posts at Estonian church and town schools left vacant by the Northern War.
...24 WORK CITED……………………………………………………………………………....25 APPENDIX………………………………………………………………………………….26 2 INTRODUCTION Today more and more disputes are caused by the enormous spread of the English language throughout the world. Some scholars claim that it has already become the first global language. And this statement isn't far from truth. But what does it mean to say that a language is a global language? Why is English the language which is usually cited in this connection? How did the situation arise? And could it change? Or is it the case that, once a language becomes a global language, it is there for ever? [1, pg.2] These are fascinating questions to explore, whether your first language is English or not.
knowledge most relevant to innovation and allow a ranking of different linkages by industrial sector and country. Cluster analysis focuses on the interactions between particular types of firms and sectors, which can be grouped according to their technological and networking characteristics. Patterns of knowledge flows can differ markedly from cluster to cluster and also within countries specialised around different industrial clusters (e.g. forestry, chemicals). Innovation systems can also be analysed at different levels: subregional, national, pan-regional and international. While the national level may be the most relevant due to the role of country specific interactions in creating a climate for innovation, international technology flows and collaborations are taking on growing significance. Future research will focus on improving the indicators used to map interactions in national innovation systems as

Thirdly I will talk about Nokia's basic business tactics. I will give a brief description of its strategy and vision concerning the future. That will be followed by a description of Nokia's basic products. In conclusion I will be giving my own opinion about Nokia and review the main points of the report. HISTORY The firm Nokia we know today has greatly changed comparing to the time it first started under the name of Nokia. Nokia was established in 1865 as a pulp mill by Knut Fredrik Idestam in the town of Tampere, in south-western Finland. In the beginning of 20th Finnish Rubber Works acquired Nokia Wood Mills and Finnish Cable Works and all these three companies were merged into the Nokia Corporation. This corporation involved in many sectors, producing at one time or another paper products, bicycle and
