A Class Divided Ants Verliin 02.02.2016 Selles ekperimendis õpetaja seletas kolmanda klassi lastele rassismist, aga ta tegi seda läbi katse, et lapsed saaksid paremnini aru. Katse algul olid lapsed kõik selle poolt, et vihkame ja mõnitame inimesi kes pole meiega sama naha värvi. Õpetaja nei ltegi aga nii, et ühel päeval olid sinisilmsed õpilased „paremad“ kui pruunisilmsed õpilased. Sinisilmsetel olid eelised ja nad tundsid end kui jumalad. Pruunisilmsetel oli väga palju keelatud ja nad tundsid end alandatud ja nad ei saanud sinna isegi midagi teha, kui sinisilmsed mõnitasid neid. Järgmine päev oli aga teistmoodi. Nüüd olid pruunisilmsed need, kes olid „paremad“ ja sinisilmsed olid need, keda alandati ja kiusati kogaueg. Sinisilmsetel läks kõik halvemini too päec, kuna nad mõtlesid juba, et nad on halvemad ja nad ei näinud vaev...

committing something known as the lump of labor fallacy. Now the problem is that the lump of labor fallacy is itself a fallacy. Imagine a dock worker who had begun to use a machine to make washers, the small metal discs that fasten on the end of screws. And this dock worker felt guilty for being more productive. Asked why, he said "I know I'm doing wrong. I'm taking away the work of another man." In his mind there was some fixed lump of work to be divided up between him and his pals. But the lump of work wasn't fixed. As this worker used the machine and become more productive, the price of washers would fall, demand for washers would rise, more washers would have to be made and there'd be more work for his pals to do. The lump of work would get bigger. Its called the lump of labor fallacy. And today you hear the people talk about the lump of labor fallacy to think about the future of all types of work

can introduce interference into the output of circuit 2. If circuit 2 is an audio system, and circuit 1 has large AC currents flowing in it, the interference may be heard as a 50 or 60 Hz hum in the speakers. Question 7 (20 marks) Assume we have a period based measurement system as shown in the below figure. Design the sample clock frequency that we can measure the frequency input with the change from 5 MHz to 5.0001 MHz in 50 counts. Solution: Frequency input at 5 MHz divided by 10000 = 500 Hz. Frequency input at 5.0001 MHz divided by 10000 = 500.01 Hz. Fs Counts read by register at 500 Hz = x1 500 Hz Fs Counts read by proceessor at 500.01 Hz = x2 500.01Hz Fs Fs

Most of Estonian vocabulary is borrowed from other languages like German ang English. Very few of Estonian words are originally Estonian. For example, suu (mouth), vesi (water) and ema (mother). One thing that features Estonian is that unlike any other language, Estonian has three degrees of phoneme lenght: short, long and overlong. Pronouncing the phoneme differently can change the meaning of the word. There are many different dialects in Estonian language. The dialects are divided into two groups: southern and northern dialects. They differ from each other so much that it is very difficult for a northern dialect speaker to fully understand southern dialect speaker. Estonian is a very complicated language and there is (I think) no reason for a foreigner to learn it. When somebody moves to Estonia, it is easier to communicate in Engilsh. As result, Estonian could die out.

unique in the world. The problem with progressive taxes is that the marginal rate- the tax people pay on any additional income - is always high, which is generally a disincentive to both working and investing. The higher the tax rates, more people are tempted to cheat. Some employers give highly paid employees lots of perquisites such as company cars, free health insurance, and subsidized lunches. Taxation Act in Estonia was passed in 2002. Taxes are divided into direct and indirect taxes. Direct taxes are income taxes, gambling tax, land tax, social tax and heavy goods vehicle tax. The income tax rate in Estonia is 21% and social tax rate is 33%. In 2000 a corporate tax reform took place in Estonia.
