Dear Ms Peck, I saw your advertisement about volunteering work. I would like to join in and work with children. My name is Mari Mets and I am 18 years old. I speak Hungarian, English and Russian. I have a driving licence. Despite being 18 years old, I have organised holidays for youngsters before (2001 – Hungary; 2002 – Romania). In addition to that I have taken a course in child psychology (October – January 2000). Also, I really like children, I help with neighbour children on a regular basis. I could help with accommodation, organise games and activities, teach children various skills such as pottery, offer some help with general problems. I have some questions about the volunteer work. Where will the children be from? How long

there are no big industrial enterprises in the vicinity. Problematic areas are air and litter pollution as many tourists visit the place leaving behind exhaust gases and rubbish on the ground. Wildlife In the forests near Poku there is comparatively rich in wildlife. The only problem seems to be cutting trees which may leave the local animals without their usual habitat. Recycling Recycling of paper and glass is very well organised in the area of Poku. More problematic seems to be recycling of plastic and chemicals as there are no special containers for that kind of waste. Conclusion and recommendations Poku is a good place many families with children visit and enjoy their time there. To decrease the air pollution cars should be banned from Poku. New litter bins and containers for recycling plastic and chemicals should be placed in the location. To avoid the decrease of local wildlife cutting tees should be forbidden.

What can be done to prevent petty crime? Nowadays more and more young people have started comit petty crime and people believe that thouse can be prevented. I support this view for a variety of reasons. To start with petty crime can be prevented with teenagers, the problematical ones in particular should participate to educational courses organised by the state where they can learn everything about these petty crimes an also how to avoid getting in the middle of them. It is very important to organise this meetings in the poor districts where teenagers are prone to ilicit activities such as pickpocketing or even burglery. Another method of reducing petty crime is that the people should learn how to protect their houses and their valuable goods. They should also learn how to protect themselves by thieves
Report to the Board of Governors. Introduction The main principal aim of this report is to describe a fund-raising day organised for disadvantaged children and to make some recommendations for the next year. Methods of fund raising Our charity organisation has been going in for collecting money to support disadvantaged children in Britain already for seven years. There are some verified ways to collect money, such as a street collection, house-to-house collection and jumble sales. A large amount of money was raised by the house-to house collection. It`s about a 40% of the whole money we got for these children

The trend was started by Raivo Roosna and Aleks Lepajõe who robbed the Tillander store in Helsinki in 1985. In December 2006, it was estimated that Estonian criminals were responsible for 140 robberies of jewellery and watch stores in Finland, the Netherlands, Portugal, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Denmark, and Sweden during the last three years. The value of the lost property is estimated to be 25 million Euros.[1] Today transnational Estonian organised crime is predominantly about smuggling drugs, alcohol, and other illegal or high-tax goods from Russia to Finland, Sweden, and elsewhere in the Baltic Sea. Estonia is a relatively safe country, although there are some situations, where people should be more careful crime has been increased lately. We could count different type of crimes, but most common are smuggling and robberies. Many people like something, what do not belong to them. On the one hand, news are
The role of the free press Newspapers and magazines play an imoportant role in today's society and are capable of influencing people's lives in many ways. The new electronic media have become even more influential in shaping people's opinions, attitudes and behaviour. However, does the free press offer a valuable service, or is it, as American journalist, Edward Egglestone said, "organised gossip"? On a personal level, the media can be very entertaining and informative. Reading about the lifestyles of the rich and famous is amusing and can help people forget their own problems. However, journalists frequently intrude on the privacy of celebrities, following them and photographing them in their most intimate moments. This is surely an unacceptable interpretation of the word "free".
Religion in Ireland 2. Today I'm going to talk about Christianity in Ireland, Roman Catholic Church, Saint Patrick and Saint Patrick's day . 3. Christianity is and has been the largest religion in Ireland. Most churches are organised on an all-Ireland basis which includes both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Many people believe that St Patrick was the one responsible for bringing Christianity to Ireland. Although he made a major impact on Christian Ireland he certainly wasn't the first to arrive here. St. Palladius was the first Christian to arrive in Ireland. 4. The Roman Catholic Church in Ireland is part of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church. It is the largest

different periods (childhood, adolescence) of Jamal. Some questions do not refer to points of his life (cricket champion), but by witness he comes to the right answer. I think it was an excellent movie with fantastic cast and acting. The director Danny Boyle is a master. Every scene is explosive- emotionally and visually. I loved the story of Jamal, it was very colorful and the special effects within were superb. The film gave me a good overview of the Indian orphans, slaughter, poverty, organised crime, enslavement and police brutality. But what i loved the most is that, besides all the brutality there is warmth and humanity in this film. The romance in this film is also breathtaking, the love story of Jamal and Latika is so sweet, that it brought tears to my eyes. The end is very moving and a wonderful soundtrack completes the entire experience. This is one of my favourite films what i have seen in many years, so I would definitely
One possible solution to reduce smoking is to educate the teens. Schools could have classes and seminars that increase the knowledge about the consequences of smoking. That way teens would be aware of the health problems such as many different cancers, heart diseases, asthma and strokes caused by cigarettes. Youths should also see the visuals how smoking ages skin and yellows teeth. Also a similar meetings for parents and students should be organised. After this parents might be more intrested in and responsible for their child' s health. Teens would care about their health more if they knew about the consequences of tobacco. Raising awareness is a good solution to reduce underage smoking. Another suggestion would be to ban adverts that supports smoking. We could for example, ban magazine advartisements. It would be a good idea because teens read magazines very often and they see the pictures in them

Its culmination came during the World War II, when the massive Jew-baiting took place, known as the Holocaust. People's, who obeyed Adolf Hitler, tolerance changed to a very cruel way of intolerance. Very hot topic is also discrimination and not accepting homosexuals. Despite of that, many countries have allowed people with different sexual orientations to get married and even adopt children. There have even been gay parades even in Estonia, not to mention the ones that have been organised in world capitals like Rome and Berlin. Tough it is surrounded with a lot of critizism, it is a huge step to grew people's tolerance. My father once told me that earlobs can show people's tolerance. The longer the lobs, the more tolerant the person. It might be a fairytale or a grain of truth. If it is a fairytale, then he just wanted show-off his long earlobs. If it has some kind of truth inside of it, then we should start immidiately to sretch our earlobs with heavy earrings

Women collected anything that grew or moved, including fruit, lizards, snakes, roots, grass, etc. Their skill in finding food even in the most extreme conditions often kept the whole group alive. 4. Hunting Large mammals, now extinct (väljasurnud), roamed some areas (hulkusid mingitel aladel) of Australia and provided (andsid) meat for the aboriginal hunters. Other areas were richer in vegetable food, but there was no organised agriculture or domesticated animals. Food therefore was not easy to obtain. Tribesmen recognized the tracks of animals and developed extraordinary skills in tracking their pray. 5. Traditions, arts and beliefs. The Aborigines blamed supernatural forces for all the events and used magic and ritual to get rid of evil spirits. Each of the clans had a special sacred place on their land where their spirits returned after death

Pupils can also take a 2-year course of studies towards a professional qualification called a B.E.P. (Certificate of Vocational Proficiency) in one of four fields (social and health careers, driving jobs and road transport services, the catering and hotel industry, and the optics-eyewear sector). In a professional lycée, the BEP course is integrated into the three-year programme of the professional baccalaureate. The general baccalaureate and the technological baccalaureate are organised into 'series' or streams (ES - economic and social studies, L - literary and S - scientific) for the general 'bac', and STG (Management), STI (Industrial), STL (Laboratory), STSS (Health and Social), STAV (Agronomy), TMD (Music and Dance) and Hotel Management for the technological 'bac'. Each stream is structured by a coherent core of key subjects. The professional baccalaureate requries 3 years of study and certifies the capacity to work in a highly qualified professional activity. http://www

These men discouraged rebellion by building strong castles throughout the country, especially in Wales. In return for their land, William's barons had to perform certain services. They and their bishops had to perform certain services. They and the bishops served as members of William's Council, which replaced the Anglo-Saxon Witan. The barons also had military obligations to serve as knights (army commanders) for William. William organised his English kingdom according to the feudal system which had already begun to develop in England before his arrival, but under the Normans, it became more organised. The word feudalism comes from the French word feu, which the Normans used to refer to land held in return for duty or service to a lord. The basis of feudal society was the holding of land, and its main purpose was economic. All land was divided into manors. Most manors contained a village

1917 revolution and the generally unstable situation in Russia created the opportunity for Estonia to gain its independence. The impetus for independence was provided by the National Front, Estonia's main ideological movement, which based its ideas on US President Woodrow Wilson's principle of self-determination. On April 8, 1917, Estonian organisations and military personnel totalling 40 000 held a demonstration in Petrograd (St. Petersburg) in support of self-government of Estonia. The organised, peaceful demonstration achieved its goal when, on April 12, the Russian Provisional Government signed the Law on Estonian Autonomy, which united the Livonian counties of Tartu, Võru, Viljandi, Pärnu and Saaremaa with Estonia. For the first time an Estonian, Jaan Poska was appointed as a Provincial Commissioner of Estonia. A six-member Provisional National Council, the Maapäev, was formed. The Maapäev appointed

December 1995, Buckingham Palace publicly announced the Queen had sent letters to Charles and Diana advising them to divorce. Prince Charles immediately agreed with the suggestion. In February Diana announced her agreement. The divorce was finalised on 28 August 1996. Charles and his family gave Diana £ 17 million. She was allowed to keep her jewellery, including personal gifts to Diana. She remained the bearer of the three Orders which Queen Elizabeth had lent her. Her office where she organised her charitable work was supported by £300 000 yearly. She is allowed to remain living in Kensington Palace until William and Henry come of age. The custody of the children is shared by both parents, as is common in England. Besides this, Diana was allowed to keep using the title "Princess of Wales".

Second invasion - Caesar's second raid In 54 B.C. Julius Caesar came to Britain again landing at Walmer near Deal in Kent. This time he brought with him five legions (30,000 foot soldiers) and 2,000 cavalrymen (horse riders). This time the Romans crossed the River Thames. After more fighting, the British tribes promised to pay tribute to Rome and were then left in peace for nearly a century. Third and final invasion In 43 A.D. (43 years after Jesus was born) Emperor Claudius organised the final and successful Roman invasion of Britain. General Plautius led four legions with 25,000 men, plus an equal number of auxiliary soldiers. The biggest battle was fought on the banks of the River Medway. It went on for two days before the Celtic tribes retreated. Many tribes tried to resist the Romans. It took about four years for the invaders to finally gain control over southern England, and another 30 years for them to conquer all of the West Country and the mountains

Marino, which is a reflection of Nikolai's lack of practical and organizational abilities. Nikolai himself says that " ." And truly, there is no improvement - there's " , ... , , - , ". The peasantry is poor and disobedient " ". In chapter 4, it is described that even Nikolais best efforts do not bare fruits " , , ". Witnessing this situation makes Arkdays heart ache perhaps in a way that Turgenev himself felt with the fate of ill-organised estates. Marino's lacklustre management symbolises the futility of the gentry's attempts to modernize - Nikolai stands as the ,,the economic failings of the gentry" (Dunaev: 1983:196). The shortcomings of the Kirsanov management are even more obvious when subtly contrasted with the well-organised Nikolskoe, ran by Odintsova a representative of the new generation. Therefore the sad state of Marino can be seen as a symbol to the ineffective
universities, and set out to improve education. He thought part of this improvement should be sports education, which he considered an important part of the personal development of young people. He conceived of an international competition to promote athletics. A growing international interest in the ancient Olympics, fed by recent archaeological finds at Olympia, De Coubertin devised a plan to revive the Olympic Games at the age of 31. To publicize these plans, he organised an international congress on June 23, 1894 at the Sorbonne in Paris. There he proposed to reinstate the ancient Olympic Games. The congress led to the establishing of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), of which De Coubertin became the general secretary. It was also decided that the first modern Olympics would take place in Athens, Greece and that they would be held every four years. These Games proved a success. Paradoxically, the first
result of the Russian central power and the Baltic German-dominated cultural situation, motivated the elite of the `awakened peasants' to build up their own independent nation and national society. In 1857 Johann Voldemar Jannsen (18191890), replaced the term `country people' with the word `Estonians'. Patriotic intellectuals encouraged Estonians to participate in public life, determined the legal and cultural requirements of the emerging nation, and organised the extensive sending of petitions to the Russian authorities. At its height, in 18601880, the movement was governed by a politically moderate trend with their specific ethnic-linguistic aims. The trend stressed the need to develop national culture and education in Estonian. Pastor and linguist Jakob Hurt was convinced that the mission of a small nation can only be of a cultural and not of a political nature; what counts is national identity, not statehood as such
world, such as Easter and Christmas. However, Australians also celebrate some holidays unique to their country and culture. Australia Day Australia Day, 26 January, is the anniversary of the arrival of the First Fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain, and the raising of the Union Jack at Sydney Cove by its commander Captain Arthur Phillip, in 1788. On Australia Day, over half of the nation's population of 21 million attend either an organised community event, or get together with family and friends with the intention of celebrating our national day. It is celebrated with parties, picnics, and fireworks and coincides with the last days of summer vacations. Anzac Day Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand, and is commemorated by both countries on 25 April every year to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who fought at Gallipoli in Turkey during

Some forests are changed into nationality areas, so in order to cut trees down or hunt animals, people must ask permission from the governments. Rubbish Finally, there is the problem of rubbish, that we get in contact with every day. We can see litter mostly lying in the streets, but also in the reservoirs and in the forests. This is mostly our fault and we don't care about the cleanliness of the streets etc. There are organised cleaning campaigns, where people gather in a certain place and split up then to start cleaning the surroundings of our homes and the forests. Every day we throw away millions of tonnes of rubbish. Half of this is paper that we can use again. A typical family in Europe or USA throws away more than 1 tonne of rubbish each year, but we can recycle most of this. If we recycle things, we can save money, energy and natural resources.
Calvinism with its strict insistence on simplicity and its dislike of ritual and celebration became the dominant religion in England. 7. Who was the king who took the Union Flag into use? Why is it called the Union Flag? King James I took the Union Flag into use. The flag was a symbol of the united countries England and Scotland and the flag combined the English flag of St. George with the Scottish flag of St. Andrew. 8. What is the Gunpowder Plot? Why was it organised? Gunpowder Plot was the name of the conspiracy by Catholics who tried to kill James and the Members of the Parliament to regain for their religion the influence that it had had before Elizabeth I's reign. 9.

It is a meeting place where you can interact with people, go for a swim in sandy shore and have picnics. Open-air art installations have been put up for the people to enjoy and the traditional summer solstice celebrations have taken place there. Despite the lack of maintenance of the area Kalarand is already one of the best places to spend time by the sea, by emphasizing its values it can be made even more pleasant. Over the years a sense of community has been created. People of Kalamaja have organised summer beach parties and sauna parties there, with temporary sauna tents. In 2011, when Tallinn was a European Capital of Culture, the authors of Urban Intervention built changing cabins, benches and terraces to Kalarand. The beach area was cleared, the scrub trimmed and dustbins were provided for the summer season. The seabed of the bathing site was cleared of rubbish and pieces of concrete, water samples were taken and analysis results were posted on a notice board
Other Russian goods that have been transported through Estonia are grain and fertilizers. Another important area is passenger shipping which is directly linked to tourism. The Estonian national air company Estonian Air has also proven successful as it has managed to increase both cargo volumes and the number of passengers. A large part of freight transport is still done by road. Passenger transport is organised with buses for the most part, there are international lines to St Petersburg, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany and Scandinavia. During the recent years a lot of roads have been repaired and new ones have been constructed, but a considerable number of roads are still in a fairly poor condition. About 3.4 million tourists visit Estonia every year, the majority of them come Finland and stay for a short period. Tourists who come for a couple of days also go to the theatre and
The Normans took away the Saxon lords' land. Only a few Saxons who supported William could keep their land. Feudalism William gave parts of his conquered land to his captains around the country to avoid rebellions and uprisings. He also kept some land to himself to make sure his was much stronger than his nobles. Of all the farmland half went to his nobles, quarter to church and fifth he kept to himself. William organised the English kingdom according to feudal system. The main purpose of using that system was economic. King gave the land to "vassals" in return of army services and goods. When a noble dies, his son took over the estate. When there was no family, the land went back to king who could give it to another noble or just keep it for a few years. In 1086 he wanted to know exactly who was using his land and how much it produced so he could organise and plan economy and taxes
Catholicism was the highest law (?). The church unified Europe. Abbeys and monasteries became centres of learning. 1168 the founding of Oxford University, 1209 Cambridge University. Alongside the church there was a very complex feudal system based on the idea of land ownership. Landed gentry noble people who owned land, right below aristocracy, quite above peasants etc. Towns grew, London became the true capital. A new class of people developed guildsmen. The guilds were organised by profession. Everything in medieval society was regulated, fixed. Medieval life was very austere (strict). Travel was difficult and dangerous (robbers, bandits). Food was terrible for the most part cabbage everyday! There were some compensations such as religious festivals time for the people to have fun. Crusades the aim was to reconquer the Holy Land. Arab influence. The Arabs gave Europe medicine, mathematics etc. Commerce, travel became easier.
