London London is the capital of England and of the United Kingdom. It`s one of the most populated cities in the world. More than 7 million people live in London today. London is situated in south-eastern England on the River Thames. The Romans started to build a town on the River Thames about 2000 years ago. They called their town Londinium and that`s where the name London comes from. London is made up of two ancient cities that are now joined together - the city of London and the city of Westminster. London is famous for it`s parks. Hyde Park is one of the largest and nicest of them . In summer you can walk in the park have a picnic or rent a small boat and go fishing. Hyde Park is also a place for big rock concerts - the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Queen, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and the Foo Fighters are just some of the bands that have played there.
A book worth reading A year ago I managed to find time to read an extremely profound book entitled The Fault in Our Stars. This tragic, yet realistic drama was written by John Green, a famous author of young-adult fiction, and it provides a valuable insight into the life of children fighting with cancer. The Fault in Our Stars is about a teenage girl Hazel, who has stage 4 thyroid cancer. Hazel’s daily routine contains taking meds, reading books and taking part of the support group meetings for cancer- fighters. In the support group she meets an extraordinarily handsome boy Augustus, who, full of metaphores and mystery, catches Hazel’s attention immediately. As the plot evolves, these two spectacularily appalling figures get close and share unique experiences. Together they help out a friend dealing with the loss of a girlfriend, travel to the Netherlands to meet Hazel’s favourite author and much more. Unlike any other teenage-cliche ...

Funk on afroameerika tantsumuusika, milles on esiplaanil rütm. Harmoonia ja meloodia on vähem tähtsad. Rütm on punkteeritud, palju kasutatakse sünkoope. Rütmilistele kitarri-, vaskpilli- ja basskäikudele ning trummiaktsentidele lisandub gospellik laulmisstiil. Funk tekkis 1960 aastate keskosa lõpul, kui afroameerika muusikud sulandasid soul'i, soul jazzi ja R&B ühtseks ja rütmiliseks uueks muusikastiiliks. Tuntumad esitajad on Tower of Power, The Commodores, James Brown jt. Fungi muusika oli aeglane, seksikas, vaba ja tantsitav. Fungi selged afroameerika muusikalise väljenduse iseloomujooned tulenevad Lääne Aafrika muusikatraditsioonidest ja leiavad oma varaseimad väljendused hingelistest, töö või kiidu hüüetest, gospelist ja blues'ist. Funk muusika on souli, soul jazzi ja R&B segu. Funk muusika hõlmab enda alla ka Electro muusika (mis on kombineeritud elektroonilise muusikaga ja funk'iga. See on sisuliselt nagu Funk ning säilitab F...
RETSENSIOON Mina käisin 31. juulil 2012. aastal vaatamas Red Hot Chili Peppersi konsertit, mis toimus Tallinna Lauluväljakul. Koos peaesineja, Red Hot Chili Peppersiga, oli ka kaks soojendusesinejat: Eestist pärit rokkbänd `'Elephants From Neptune'' ja Suurbritanniast pärinev `'The Vaccines''. Kontsert, koos kahe soojendus- ning peaesinejaga, kestis kokku u. 4½ tundi, kusjuures väravad avati juba kell 16.00. Kontserti ametlik algus oli 19.00 ning lõpp 00.30. Red Hot Chili Peppers on neljaliikmeline rock-bänd, mis on võitnud mitu Grammy auhinda. Bänd on pärit Californiast ja moodustati aastal 1983 Los Angeleses. Hoolimata sellest, et bänd on üle elanud mitmeid probleeme nii äri- kui ka eraelus, on siiski suudetud luua kompaktne saund, mis kombineerib punki, funki, heavy metalit, räppi, popi ja psühhedeelset rocki. Praegused liikmed on Anthony Kiedis (vokalist), Josh Klinghoffer (Kitarr, taustavokaal), Michae...
Hard rock Karl-Richard Sänna Form 9B Hard rock (or heavy rock) A loosely defined subgenre of rock music which has its earliest roots in mid-1960s garage rock, blues rock and psychedelic rock Typified by a heavy use of distorted electric guitars, bass guitar, drums, and often accompanied with pianos and keyboards Developed into a major form of popular music in the 1970s and reached a commercial peak in the mid to late 1980s Led Zeppelin, The Who, Deep Purple, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Van Halen, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Guns N' Roses Definitions A form of loud, aggressive rock music Has sometimes been labelled cock rock for its emphasis on overt masculinity and sexuality and because it has historically been predominately performed and consumed by men: in the case of its audience, particularly white, working-class adolescents In the late 1960s the term heavy metal was used interchangeably wit...
EU Internal Market Law Mid-term online evaluation assignment for Distance Learning Students The Assignment: Hypothetical Case In the Member State A several NGOs, uniting parents concerned with safety of children and young adults, ordered a study of dog attacks on people (and especially children) resulting in deaths or maiming. The aim of the study was to identify, if possible, the dog breeds of potentially enhanced danger for people. The study’s results showed that pit bulls and their close mixes as well as Rottweilers and their close mixes were jointly responsible for over 70% of attacks. The authors of the study explained the statistics by popularity, big size and powerfulness of the named breeds and their ability to do a lot of damage. Besides, about the pit bull attacks the absence of warning from a dog played a significant role, because due to the custom of docking (cutting short) pit bulls’ tails warning signals could n...

Years 1154-1485 Henry I was the first unquestioned ruler. One of the most important kings in the Middle Ages. He had lands in Britain & France. Then the government was the monarch, a person, not a place. He had more land than any pervious king. After his marriage to Eleanor of Aquitaine, he also ruled the lands south of Anjou. His empire stretched from the Scottish border to the Pyrenees. England provided most of its wealth, but the heart was Anjou. Henry II began to regain royal control. During the war some barons had become very powerful. He pulled down some of their castles. He tried to restore law & order. He wanted the same kind of justice to be used everywhere. He appointed his own judges to travel around the country. They dealt with crimes & disagreements over poverty. Serious offences were tried in the king's court. At first they had no special knowledge or training. They were trusted to use common se...
had no direct experience of World War I and because he is Jewish. He holds on to the romantic prewar ideals of love and fair play, yet, against the backdrop of the devastating legacy of World War I, these values seem tragically absurd. As a Jew and a nonveteran, Cohn is a convenient target for the cruel and petty antagonism of Jake and his friends. Read an in-depth analysis of Robert Cohn. Bill Gorton - Like Jake, a heavy-drinking war veteran, though not an expatriate. Bill uses humor to deal with the emotional and psychological fallout of World War I. He and Jake, as American veterans, share a strong bond, and their friendship is one of the few genuine emotional connections in the novel. However, Bill is not immune to the petty cruelty that characterizes Jake and Jake's circle of friends. Mike Campbell - A constantly drunk, bankrupt Scottish war veteran. Mike has a terrible temper, which most often manifests itself during his extreme...

THE CAPITALIST NIGER Chika Onyeani ………………………Every African must internalise this book - period….DAA INTRODUCTION In October 1960, Nigeria received its independence from Britain. By then, Ghana the former Gold Coast had been independent for three years under the great Osagyefo Kwame Nkumah. It was a time for celebrating Africa’s coming of age, as more and more African countries received their independence either from Britain or France. It was especially a poignant time for Africa, as then British Prime Minister Harold McMillan articulated his now famous “winds of change” sweeping Africa. We had high hopes for Africa, for the Black race, that the insidious imposition of foreign rule on us, the looting of Africa’s natural resources by our colonial masters accorded us would be things of history. That is more than forty years ago. Unfortunately, the promise of independence has not been fulfilled. Today, Africa has become more desolate; th...
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 letter gets delivered. Why is this so easy, because there are certain international conventions that regulate postal services. E.g. traffic signs are almost the same everywhere, why? Because of certain int conventions that require the states to have more or less unified traffic signs. States apply international regulations to national regulations and they ...

AMBER AND RUSSET - LATE COLOUR CHANGE GENES Copyright 2014, Sarah Hartwell The ancestors of the domestic cat were nondescript black/brown striped tabbies. Over the centuries, mutation produced a wide array of colours based on 2 different pigments. Eumelanin gives the blacks, browns and blues while phaeomelanin gives the reds, fawns and creams. A few other genes give further variations on those colours such silvers, colourpoints and solids/selfs. Mutations continue to occur and unexpected colours also turn up due to inbreeding where recessive genes, hidden for generations, start showing up. AMBER AND LIGHT AMBER During the 1990s, some purebred Norwegian Forest Cats in Sweden produced chocolate/lilac and cinnamon/fawn offspring. However, those colours are not found in the purebred Norwegian Forest Cat gene pool. Had the gene pool become polluted by someone, perhaps generations ago, breeding their Norwegian Forest Cat to another breed? ...
