the Turks. It has been quoted that a man named Dr. Nazim had once said "If we are going to do something like the Adana massacre of 1909, here and there, the result will do us more harm than good." Dr. Nazim goes on to say that the Turks would alert the Arabs and the Kurds and that therefore the danger would be multiplied. In his final words at these meetings he had said that "We (the Turks) must not leave a single Armenian alive in our country, we must kill the Armenian name." The next thing that they did was take a vote regarding the extermination of the Armenians. The results were disastrous for the Armenians when they voted that not a single Armenian should be left alive. (Angelfire, 2011) (Wikipedia, 2011) 1.3. Young Turks and the Young Turk Revolution Young Turk Revolution found place in 1908-1909, it was the first bourgeois revolution in Turkey. The Young Turks were a group of intellectuals of different ideological backgrounds

Libraries

Libraries. We know a lot of things thanks to books, but we do not know exactly when and where they originated, and what should be considered the first book in the world. Ancient document, written on parchment, papyri and vellum can hardly be qualified as books the way we understand the word today. Centuries went before paper replaced parchment and papyri. In the 15 th century Johann Gutenberg invented a mechanical process of duplicating texts, which we today call book printing. The first book was printed between 1444 and 1446, so these years can be considered as the beginning years of book printing. His most important preserved printings are the 40 copies of the Bible. By the end of the 15 th century there were about 1000 print-shops in Europe already. The oldest Estonian book dates back to 1535. Libraries form a vital part of education. They make available-through books, films, recordings and other media- knowledge that h

A lamb to the slaughter

holding the ridiculous piece of meat tight with both hands. All right, she told herself. So I've killed him. It was extraordinary, now, how clear her mind became all of a sudden. She began thinking very fast. As the wife of a detective, she knew quite well what the penalty would be. That was fine. It made no difference to her. In fact, it would be a relief. On the other hand, what about the child? What were the laws about murderers with unborn children? Did they kill then both - mother and child? Or did they wait until the tenth month? What did they do? Mary Maloney didn't know. And she certainly wasn't prepared to take a chance. She carried the meat into the kitchen, placed it in a pan, turned the oven on high, and shoved t inside. Then she washed her hands and ran upstairs to the bedroom. She sat down before the mirror, tidied her hair, touched up her lops and face. She tried a smile. It came out rather peculiar. She tried again.

Movie review

bigger, and delivering a masterpiece. Punane elavhõbe "Punane Elavhõbe" (red mercury in English) was announced as an Estonian historic crime movie about mafia and underground brutality in the 90's. The main characters were three thugs who weren't special at all, mainly only stealing car stereos etc. They heard that they could get rich when they would buy red mercury in Russia and then sell it with a higher price. So they took their way to Russia and one of them, Korba, would beat kill anyone who had something to do with them like taxi drivers. Estonian police had an eye over them and later they all got caught in Estonia. They also learned that Russians bluffed and red mercury didn't actually exist. So what was positive? Storyline was mostly OK. Also most objects came from the early 90's so the atmosphere was pretty good in terms of timing although some mistakes were made. And Kristjan Sarv definitely did the best acting in this movie when playing a brutal thug who

ABOUT SERIAL KILLERS

[Your Name] [Instructor] [Class] [Date] ABOUT SERIAL KILLERS INTRODUCTION Let's play a quick game of catchphrase - guess the word. My phrase is two words, and describes a person. Charles Manson. Ted Bundy. Jack the Ripper. Serial killer - serial meaning "arranged in a straight line or succession" (1) and killer meaning "one who kills, or any agent used to neutralize the active property of anything." We tend to have a morbid interest in people who commit murder. Today, I'd like to explain what distinguishes serial killing from mass murders, how long serial killing has been around, and highlight some of the psychological traits common to serial killers. BODY I. Serial killing vs mass murders Now at a glance serial killing and mass murder seems basically the same: one person kills many other people. The distinction between the two is notable: mass murder happens when one person murders multiple people at one specific place and one specific

Topic - Libraries

Topic ­ Libraries Tallinn English College 8b form  2007 1. Introduction A library is a collection of books. Libraries are maintained by a public body such as an institution or an individual. These collections are used by people who choose not to (or cannot afford) purchase an extensive collection themselves or who need professional assistance with their research. However, with the collection of media other than books, many libraries are now also access points for maps, prints or other documents and artworks such as microfilm, audio tapes, CDs, cassettes and DVDs. So, modern libraries are being redifined as places to get access to information in many formats and from many sources. In addition to providing materials, they also provide the services of specialists who are experts in matters related to finding and organizing information, called librarians. 2. History The f
