,,INFOVABADUS JA KODANIKUKULTUUR" Dangers As we see ICTs have many advantages, but there is always the other side. There are dangers that one must be aware of. For example one must remember that everything that is once on internet will always be there. Your future employer can see the pictures that you have uploaded to Facebook and other sites like this. And I think that it is bad to share too much personal information online. You will never know who might abuse it and how it's done. There is a lot of anonymity online. That's a danger too because it seems that you can say everything and there will be no punishment but actually it is not like that at all. If there is insulting or threatening online there is a way to find out who did it. There are many children online. So they are threatened too. There are many predators who might claim to be someone that they are not and make friends with children. Then when children trust them they migh...
12, yet the ticket office was still closed even though according to the advertisement every door should have been opened by 11 o'clock. However, when I started to look for another gate or entrance, there were none at all. It seems that the front door of your museum is very difficult to find without a map. As for more, the staff working was extremely rude! I was trying to ask for my location and how to enter the museum but all I ever heard as a reply was insulting mumble and no clear sentences. Of course, that might have been rather understandable if we were talking about a fast food place, yet in such an official place as it is the National Museum of Physic Art, it is a shame to see employees who cannot use English. It was very irritating and I wasted a lot of time making clear what problems did I encounter. As a result, I did not visit your museum and I never will. However, I do hope that you

,, I can't understand, if children doesn't have anything else but burn thing to do anymore!" said literature teatcher Kirsi Rannaste. Her statement was justified because few weeks later another incident took place. This time they were burning potato chips. In Viimsi Secondary School middle school students does not have any respect towards their theachers nor anybody else. When someone accidentaly runs into you, then you shouldn't wait for apology. More likely you get to hear some insulting words. When canadian Jody Mann, a Practical English teacher in Viimsi School, first started to work in Viimsi, he had a unpleasant incident with three 7th grade student. ,,I came out from class and started to walk along the hallway to teachers room when I saw three boys playing footbag. Just when was I passing them, footbag flew towards me. So I tried not to let it fall but eventually it happened." said Mann. ,,Those boys got so angry at me. They shouted at me in Estonian

When I first started my own Magna Carta, I thought what's the most near heart and important to me. I chose two main topics, what I find important and relevant. I'm sure that I'm not the onl one who thinks like that. The first thing I would do, is forbid bullying. What is bullying? Bullying is the use of force, threat or duress to abuse, terrorize or aggressively dominate others. There are different types of victims. One of those is the one that ignores all the hate and insulting what comes at him/her. The other one takes it all by heart and seriously. Words can hurt, a lot. Most of the people don't realize what are they causing the victim, when bullying him/her. The worse cause that bullying can cause, is suicide. There is 7% of young people who attempt suicide every year. Nearly 30% of students don't go to school, because they don't want to get bullied. Also one of the worse causes is self-harming. Those, who do self-harm, find it releasing. How do I recognize
agrees, because she dosen't wanna be old maid. Of course Elizabeth is mad, but she forgives her and soon after that she attends to their wedding. Accidentally Mr Darcy and Elizabeth meet at Lady Catherine's mansion (nearby to Collinses house) and they have to spend a lots of time toghter. Even though Elizabeth contempts him, Darcy finds her even more attractive. Hastily he asks her to marry him but her answer is straight no. Darcy has been insulting her family and she's guiet sure that it was his fault that Jane and Bingley broke up and she still also belives what Wickham said about him. Next morning Mr Darcy gives a letter to Elizabeth that explains everything and that changes her opinion about Sri Wickham and so about Mr Darcy. In the end of the summer Elizabeth goes to vacation with her uncle and aunt. They go to Darcys mansion in Pemblerly, they were told that the master isin't home so

8.THE PEOPLE · .American people are oftenly friendly and open. · People tend to not wait to be introduced, will begin to speak with strangers as they stand in a queue, sit next to each other at an event, etc. 9.BODY LANGUAGE · Keep your distance when conversing. If an American feels you are standing too close, he or she may step back without even thinking about it. · Holding the middle finger up by itself is considered insulting and vulgar. · Americans smile a great deal, even at strangers. They like to have their smiles returned. · Men and women will sit with legs crossed at the knees. · Some Americans are known as "back slappers" -- they give others a light slap on the back to show friendship. 10.ENTERTAINMENT · .Do not be late for a dinner party.

something they otherwise would not. Also, others can be affected with threats and force. (Kilp, 2010) Political power includes also right to force the others and to punish them if they disobey. Who should have that kind of power? Actually the political power is quite mysterious by itself. If someone has legitimate political power over me then he or she has a right to force me to do things that they want.(Wolff, 1996) But how can other person have rights to tell me what I have to do? It feels insulting if someone says to me what I have to do especially if he or she thinks that he or she has a right to punish me if I disobey. But of course there is a different view. We need to think about, how will the others behave if they were not held back by laws. If we think about it then there might be a lot to say about the importance of political power. (Wolff, 1996) Nature condition We think that it is self-evident that we live in the world of political institutions.(Wolff,
34. One needs more energy, higher frequencies, more bandwidth, and less interference in order to sustain a finer quality of attention. 35. One who has authority over others is responsible for deterring them from behaving unustly toward one another and for effecting the redress of injustices when they occur. 36. One who is not still looking for answers is either a buddha or a damn fool. 37. People say that they want to be "loved for themselves" but I find that insulting. I want to do things that are worthwhile and be admired because my actions are admirable, not for foolish subjective reasons. 1 38. People think that they "make up their minds," and they're right, but not in the way that they think. Their choices are not their own and what they call their "mind" is a fabrication. 39. People won't be interested in your ideas unless you demonstrate your mastery of their ideas. 40
when they arrived, Mrs. Sowerberry had locked Oliver in the cellar. Mr. Bumble spoke sharply to Oliver and told Mrs. Sowerberry that she had been feeding the boy to liberally and that he should be kept on gruel for the rest of his apprenticeship. Mr. Bumble then stated that Oliver had come from a bad family, which angered Oliver again. Mr. Sowerberry arrives home asks Oliver what happened. Oliver tells him that Noah said bad things about his mother, and Mrs. Sowerberry began insulting her 1 again. She then burst into tears because Oliver was talking back to her, and this forced Mr. Sowerberry to punish Oliver severely. They then sent him to bed, and early the next morning he rose and left the house. On his way towards London he stopped by the house of Mrs. Mann and saw his friend Dick, who appeared to be dying, out in the garden

tors to demand the elimination of canned responses from the television projects they undertake. These demands are only sometimes successful, and when they are, it is not without a battle. What can it be about canned laughter that is so attractive to television ex- ecutives? Why are these shrewd and tested people championing a practice that their potential watchers find disagreeable and their most creative talents find personally insulting? The answer is both simple and intriguing: They know what the research says. Experiments have found that the use of canned merriment causes an audience to laugh longer and more often when humorous material is presented and to rate the material as funnier (Provine, 2000). In addition, some evidence indicates that canned laughter is most effective for poor jokes (No- sanchuk 8{ Lightstone, 1974).
Philosophy of Language Philosophy of Language: a Contemporary Introduction introduces the student to the main issues and theories in twentieth and twenty-first-century phi- losophy of language, focusing specifically on linguistic phenomena. Topics are structured in four parts in the book. Part I, Reference and Referring, includes topics such as Russell's Theory of Descriptions, Donnellan's distinction, problems of anaphora, the description theory of proper names, Searle's cluster theory, and the causalhistorical theory. Part II, Theories of Meaning, surveys the competing theories of linguistic mean- ing and compares their various advantages and liabilities. Part III, Pragmatics and Speech Acts, introduces the basic concepts of linguistic pragmatics, includes a detailed discussion of the problem of indirect force and surveys approaches to metaphor. Part IV, new to this edition, examines the four theories of metaphor. Features...
" "Let's order good Chinese and do that." 19 Cary joined us in the living room for excellent Chinese, a sweet plum wine, and Monday night television. As we flipped channels and laughed over the hilarious names of some reality television shows, I watched as two of the most important men in my life enjoyed some relaxation time and each other. They got along well, ribbing and playfully insulting each other in that way men had. I'd never seen that side of Gideon before and I loved it. While I hogged one whole side of our sectional sofa, the two guys sat cross-legged on the floor and used the coffee table as a dining table. Both were wearing loose sweatpants and fitted T-shirts, and I appreciated the view. Was I a lucky girl or what? Cracking his knuckles, Cary dramatically prepared to open his fortune cookie. "Let's see. Will I be rich? Famous? About to meet Mr. or Ms
down and sulk. "Edward Cullen is staring at you again," Jessica said, finally breaking through my abstraction with his name. "I wonder why he's sitting alone today." My head snapped up. I followed her gaze to see Edward, smiling crookedly, staring at me from an empty table across the cafeteria from where he usually sat. Once he'd caught my eye, he raised one hand and motioned with his index finger for me to join him. As I stared in disbelief, he winked. "Does he mean you?" Jessica asked with insulting astonishment in her voice. "Maybe he needs help with his Biology homework," I muttered for her benefit. "Um, I'd better go see what he wants." I could feel her staring after me as I walked away. When I reached his table, I stood behind the chair across from him, unsure. "Why don't you sit with me today?" he asked, smiling. I sat down automatically, watching him with caution. He was still smiling. It was hard to believe that someone so beautiful could be real

coats of arms, and had an important role in identifying people and relationships in battle, tournaments, and on great state occasions such as weddings. T h e y were the protocol officers of their day. At the commencement o f war a herald might be called upon to recite the causes of the conflict; in effect, to provide the motivation. In Shakespeare's Henry V, the Ambassadors from the Dauphin (crown prince) of France act as Heralds when they bring the young English king an insulting gift of tennis balls, which implies King H e n r y is fit for nothing but a frivolous game of tennis. T h e appearance of these Heralds is the spark that sets off a war. Later the character of Mount) oy, the Dauphin's Herald, bears messages between King H e n r y and his master during the crucial battle of Agincourt. Typically, in the opening phase of a story, heroes have "gotten by" somehow. T h e y have handled an imbalanced life through a series of defenses or coping mechanisms
Japanese Navy, 25-year-old Takeo Yoshikawa, who had steeped himself in information about the American Navy, arrived in Honolulu to serve as Japan's only military espionage agent covering Pearl Harbor. Under the cover-name "Tadasi Morimura," he was assigned to the consulate as a secretary. He promptly made himself obnoxious—and drew suspicion upon himself within the consulate staff—by coming to work late or not at all, getting drunk frequently, having women in his quarters overnight, and even insulting the consul himself on occasion. But he managed to tour the islands, and within a month was sending such messages as: "Warships observed at anchor on the llth [of May, 1941] in Pearl Harbor were as follows: Battleships, 11: Colorado, West Virginia, California, Tennessee. . . ." These were sent in the consulate's diplomatic systems, not in naval code. But Mayfield's hopes of peering into these secret activities through the
