The Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the British Parliament,Westminster Parliament or simply "Westminster". The British constitution has envolved over many centuries and unlike many other nations, the UK has no single constitutional documents. But Britain does, however, have certain important constitutional documents, including Magna Carta, Bill of Rights and Reform Act. It is formed partly by statue law, partly by common law and partly by conventions. Fundamental law doesn´t exist in the United Kingdom. There can be distinguish three separate organs: the legislature, the executive and the judiciary. Parliament, the law-making body, consists of three elements: the Monarchy, the House of Commons and the House of Lords. They meet together only on occasions of ceremonial significance, such as the state opening of Parliament. The Monarch's principle function is to carry out certain ceremonial duties. The Queen is regarded as
Taking up cycling instead of using a car is too dangerous in cities. It could be argued that taking up cycling is very healthy for people. It supports people more to move and it is like doing a sport. Besides it is very good for environment. Thanks to using bicycles cities air will be cleaner and air is not such impure. Thanks to cleaner air people's can breathe better air. This is partly true, but taking up cycling instead of using a car is really more dangerous than use only cars. Thanks to taking up cycling traffic will go busier and messier. There is much different kind of movers in traffic and it makes traffic really dangerous. It is clear that it is not too dangerous. There are many cities where cycling is very popular, for example in Copenhagen. If this method will be chosen, city needs to build special cycling roads. Thanks to these roads traffic should be safer.
Ghana Ghana, country of western Africa, situated on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea. Although relatively small in area and population, Ghana is one of the leading countries of Africa, partly because of its considerable natural wealth and partly because it was the first black African country south of the Sahara to achieve independence from colonial rule. In addition to being known for its lush forests, diverse animal life, and miles of sandy beaches along a picturesque coast, Ghana is also celebrated for its rich history--its habitation possibly dating from 10,000 BC--and as a fascinating repository of cultural heritage. The country takes it name from the great medieval trading empire that was located northwest of the modern-day
Regent's Park Regent's Park (officially The Regent's Park) is one of the Royal Parks of London. It is in the northern part of central London partly in the City of Westminster and partly in the London Borough of Camden. It contains Regent's College and the London Zoo. Description The park has an outer ring road called the Outer Circle (4.3 km) and an inner ring road called the Inner Circle, which surrounds the most carefully tended section of the park, Queen Mary's Gardens. Apart from two link roads between these two, the park is reserved for pedestrians. The south, east and most of the west side of the park are lined with elegant white stucco terraces of houses designed by John Nash. Running through the northern end of the park is Regent's Canal which connects the Grand Union Canal to the ...
achieved by the removal of hedgerows to create larger fields, by mechanization, and by the intensive use of fertilizers, pesticides, and fungicides. As with the issue of animal treatment, these trends in arable agriculture have provoked public concern. Combined, these concerns have helped encourage the rapid growth of vegetarianism in Britain since the early 1980s and the expansion of organic farming, although this is still on a very small scale. However, partly in reaction to these concerns, and partly because of costs, the trend is now towards lower chemical use in farming. Agricultural policy includes schemes to encourage farmers to take land out of agricultural production to adopt more environmentally kind, but less productive methods of farming to impose production quotas on certain products, like milk, and to reduce subsidies on others.

rather than being tied to a single area or garrison. Its soldiers became full-time professionals, rather than part-time militia. To establish a professional officer corps, the army's leaders were prohibited from having seats in either the House of Lords or House of Commons. This was to encourage their separation from the political or religious factions among the Parliamentarians. partly from among veteran soldiers who already had deeply-held Puritan religious convictions, and partly from conscripts who brought with them many commonly-held beliefs
Moreover, in order to offer mutual support, friends need to be there for each other all the time. For instance, it would be difficult for me and my best friend to help each other if we didn’t live in the same town. Finally, in order to move to the same direction, you and your friend just have to have time for each other. For example, I feel more connected with those friends I see on a daily basis than with those I see very seldom. Option 3 I partly agree and partly disagree. On the one hand, a good friendship always survives, no matter what. For example, I have a good friend whom I met 10 years ago in Germany, and we’ve been in touch ever since. Moreover, true friendship does not happen right away. It develops through many ups and downs. We all have seen in films or read in books, for example, where friends have fallen out, but eventually made up. On the other hand, you have to spend time with your friends. For example, it is much
almost devoid of habitation. The population is highly diverse. In addition to native Americans and the descendants of Africans taken as slaves to America, the national character has been enriched. As to its history, the United States is a relatively young countrybut first of the European colonies to separate succsessfully from its motherland. The United States achieved its current size only in the mid - 20th century when it emeged as a world power. The nation ´s wealth is partly a reflection of its rich natural resources and its enormousagricultural output, but it owes much to the country´s highly developed industry as well.

We are located near the Baltic sea, which means that around us there is one of the fastest growing market. Also we are near the biggest cities in Europe. It means that we have lots of tourists who want to visit our country. Positive side is that we have unique nature and old town. Also in Estonia there are lower prices than neighboring Scandinavian countries. Estonians are successful in creating different e-government solutions. We have e-school, e- voting and e-stores. Also the Skype is partly invented by estonians. A lot of talented people come from Estonia. Interesting about Estonia is that, although it is very small coutry it is still really popular among foreign stuents. It means that we have good education system. Consequently we can say that estonians are tolerant and foreign students feel comfortabe while living Estonia. Negative side is unemployment. It has decreased compared with the last year, but it is still too high. Also a lot of young people are unemployed
He worked briefly in a drugstore, returned for a stint as a draper's assistant, then finally found a job as a teacher's assistant in a grammar school. Education and academia suited him well. In 1884 he entered college with a scholarship to study biology. He was able to study under one of the great biology teachers of the time, Thomas Henry Huxley, and Wells graduated in 1888. The writings of Jules Verne undoubtably influenced Wells, and he wrote his first novel, The Time Machine, partly in response to this new kind of literature that Verne produced. The story appeared in various forms in magazines from 1888 to 1894 and was released in its current form in 1895. The book was successful, and Wells did not need to teach or worry about money from that time on. Wells' early novels continued in the science fiction mode of The Time Machine. The Island of Dr. Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897) and The War Between the Worlds (1898) cemented his position within the genre
By 1854 six separate railway terminals had been built just outside the centre of London: London Bridge, Euston, Paddington, King's Cross, Bishopsgate and Waterloo. At this point, only Fenchurch Street Station was located in the actual City of London. Traffic congestion in the city and the surrounding areas had increased significantly in this period, partly due to the need for rail travellers to complete their journeys into the city centre by road. The idea of building an underground railway to link the City of London with the mainline terminals had first been proposed in the 1830s, but it was not until the 1850s that the idea was taken seriously as a solution to traffic congestion.

desision of purchase can bring company to a higher dollar exchange rate, that, as a result, will mean that expences will be substantially higher. 2)To leave the whole amount of exposure unhedged was too risky at that time. Herr Ruhnau wasn`t also hundred percent confident, that exchange rate would drop. Remaining the whole explosure unhedged could bring Lufthansa to bankrupt. It was in Herr Ruhnau interests to protect Lufthansa Investments. Herr Ruhnau decision to cover partly an explosure was based on a research, which he had made. As a result Ruhnau didn't loss. His decision to cover half an explosure brought to company 225 mil.

the economic restructuring process in Estonia." Urmas Varblane Foreign investments Sound and liberal economic policies and excellent business climate has ensured a continuous growth of foreign direct investment (FDI) into Estonia. During the last 15 years Estonia has been one of the leading countries in Central and Eastern Europe in terms of inward investment per capita. Numerous foreign companies have found Estonia to be a highly attractive location. Companies partly or wholly owned by foreigners account for one-third of Estonian GDP and over 50 percent of the country`s exports. The general trends in foreign direct investment inflows can be summarized as follows: · during 1995-1996 the majority of the foreign direct investments were privatization-related; · there is an increase in terms of reinvested earnings since 1996 which was 66% of the total annual inflow of FDI in 2007;
Christoph's scores, but his brother had apparently forbidden him to do so, possibly because scores were valuable and private commodities at the time. At the age of 14, Bach, along with his older school friend George Erdmann, was awarded a choral scholarship to study at the prestigious St. Michael's School in Lüneburg, not far from the northern seaport of Hamburg, one of the largest cities in the Holy Roman Empire. This involved a long journey with his friend, probably undertaken partly on foot and partly by coach. His two years there appear to have been critical in exposing him to a wider palette of European culture than he would have experienced in Thuringia. In addition to singing in the a cappella choir, it is likely that he played the School's three-manual organ and its harpsichords. He probably learned French and Italian, and received a thorough grounding in theology, Latin, history, geography, and physics. He

systems over the long term. The cyber attacks on Estonia in 2007 highlighted for the first time the potential vulnerability of any NATO countries, their institutions and societies, and even NATO itself to disruption or penetration of their information and communications systems. • Estonia’s proposals for a NATO cyber excellence center received strong support from the alliance’s Secretary-General "Jaap" de Hoop Scheffer. NATO completed an assessment of the situation, partly in light of Estonia’s experience, in April 2007, and approved a NATO policy on cyber defence in January 2008. NATO’s summit communiqué in Bucharest in April announced NATO’s readiness to "provide a capability to assist allied nations, upon request, to counter a cyber attack". OVERVIEW • The Cyber Defence Center in Tallinn is one of 18 accredited Centres of Excellence (COEs), for training on technically sophisticated aspects of NATO operations

18th cent., when Jamaica was a leading world sugar producer. Freed and escaped slaves, sometimes aided by the maroons (slaves who had escaped to remote areas after Spain lost 3 control of Jamaica), succeeded in organizing frequent uprisings against the European landowners. The sugar industry declined in the 19th cent., partly because of the abolition of slavery in 1833 (effective 1838) and partly because of the elimination in 1846 of the imperial preference tariff for colonial products entering the British market. Economic hardship was the prime motive behind the Morant Bay rebellion by freedmen in 1865. The British ruthlessly quelled the uprising and also forced the frightened legislature to surrender its powers; Jamaica became a crown colony. Poverty and economic decline led many blacks to seek temporary work in neighboring

The event was the "Baltic Way" human chain, held on 23 August 1989. · The "Baltic Way" human chain was a joint protest action by the popular fronts in each of the countries. · The protest grew partly out of the publication of the texts of the secret pact in 1988 which infuriated locals and Moscow alike, though for different reasons. The protests grew louder and the reprisals stronger. · A mere eight years ago, on 20 August 1991, following the botched putsch attempt in Moscow, the three countries declared the immediate restoration of independence.

As a charity fundraiser, the concert far exceeded its goals: on a television programme in 2001, one of the organisers stated that while initially it had been hoped that Live Aid would raise £1 million with the help of Wembley tickets costing £25.00 each, the final figure was £150 million Partly in recognition of the Live Aid effort, Geldof received an honorary knighthood. The concert began at 7:00 EST at Wembley Stadium in the United Kingdom. It continued at JFK Stadium in the United States, starting at 8:51 EST. The UK's Wembley performances ended at 17:00 EST.

from killing sheep. It is one of the longest structures on the planet, and the world's longest fence. it’s 3,307 miles long. That makes about 5,320 km. That is about two and a half times longer than the Great Wall of China. The fence starts near the coast of Great Australian Bight and ends up in the eastern part of Queensland in the Bunya Mountains, not far from the Pacific Ocean. At the time, it was the longest man-made structure in the world. It was only partly successful; Dingoes can still be found in parts of the southern states to this day, but although the fence helped to reduce losses of sheep. The fence is 2 meters high and it extends about 30 cm underground to keep the dingoes from digging under it. There is a gate approximately every 19 km s. It’s called different names in different states: South Australia – The Dog Fence, New South Wales – the Border Fence, Queensland – the Barrier Fence, Wild Dog Barrier Fence
which we see its essence more clearly. The artist's imitation is more than a copy of what is apparent to every eye, his imitation is in some measure a creation. It is imaginative and interpretive, it reflects a special view of reality THE IMITATIVE THEORY The theory often includes the notion that art gives us not only pleasure but knowledge, insight into the nature of reality Art finishes knowledge, its value depends partly on its truth. THE EXPRESSIVE THEORY The artist is not essentially an imitator but a man who expresses his feelings. William Wordsworth: " Poetry is a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings", the poet's job is " to treat of things not as they are but as they seem to exist to the senses and the passions. The work of art is not an imitation of the external world but an expression of the internal world, the embodiment of emotion.
novelist living in Paris. When he first arrived in Paris, he experienced a cultural shock and got inspired by it. He started to keep a diary of his experiences and decided to publish it as a novel when the Anglo-French relationships were at their worst during the Iraq War spring 2003. Therefore his novels (he has written three in this series) have become enormously popular all around the world, especially because they are partly true. Stephen Clarke himself still lives in Paris with his French girlfriend. This novel is considered to be seriously funny and a comedy with a message. "Merde Actually" has one main character whose name is Paul West, but there are also many other significant characters, that come from the previous book "A Year in the Merde". I can say that it would be better to read the first book of this series first, other wise some jokes and thoughts might stay incomprehensible.
the war. But at least they can leave their children some money. I think that Larkin means that the troops are going to be brought home from Vietnam. At the end of almost every line in the first stanza is /And it is all right./ In his ironical way he is trying to say that the Vietnam War was pointless, because it did not bring any results. Another poem about the Vietnam War is ´´High Windows.´´ The poem was written is the 1960s during the sexual revolution. Partly due to that there were conflicts between the younger generation and an older, different generation. He says that older people are stuck in boundaries and that they have dreamed all their life. And now he can be free and does not have to hide what he thinks about the priest. With this poem he means that he can now be free and does not have to think what the society is thinking about him because the society is changing. He does not have to pretend of being religious or repress his desires
To reduce the risk, the difference with competition needs to be delivered to the customer. The brand has to be portrayed unique and therefore has to be perceived more valuable (as it is more expensive). The communicators of brands must here be cautious of consumers’ perspectives to address all uncertainties in the right way. The author stresses that ‘the diffusion of an innovation is mostly reliant on the social acceptance of a collective social system and only partly on the change agent’s or communication manager’s initial awareness–creation campaigns.’ Conclusion Brands have an ever-changing challenge od keeping the popularity. The key here is to be pro- active: to try to change the consumer’s way of thinking and tastes, instead of trying to understand their psychology after they already made a decision. The DOI theory is important in several areas of communication-connected disciplines. It is

Minor infringements are handled by peace courts, more serious cases go to courts of first instance. There are civil and criminal appeals courts, the highest being the Court of Cassation. Separate state security courts have jurisdiction over activities affecting the security of the government. In addition, Shari'ah courts apply Islamic law in cases involving personal status.

The United Kingdom The United Kingdom consists of England, Scotland, Wales and North Ireland and it is situated in the Atlantic Ocean near the mainland of Europe. The population of the UK is 58.6 million and area is 244,110 sq km. Britain has a temperate humid climate. Its characteristic features are mild winters, warm summer, no temperature extremes, abundant rain all year round and frequent changes of weather. The mild climate is partly due to the warm Gulf Stream and partly to the south westerly winds. Occasional winds from the east in winter may bring cold and dry weather. The distribution of rainfall is influenced by the Atlantic Stream. The mountainous areas of the north and west have more rain than the lowlands of the south and east. Wales is located on a peninsula in central-west Britain. The entire area of Wales is about 20,779 km². Wales borders by England to the east and by sea in the

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 first libraries were only partly libraries, being composed for the most part of unpublished records which are usually viewed as archives, not libraries. Findings from the citystates of Sumer have revealsed temple rooms full of clay tablets. Those archives were made up almost completely of the records of commercial transactions or inventories with only a few documents touching historical records or legends.

Mary I Mary I, called Mary Tudor (1516-1558), Queen of England (1553-1558). Mary was born in London on February 18, 1516, the daughter of Henry VIII by his first wife, Catherine of Aragón. Because Henry divorced Catherine, Mary was declared illegitimate. Nonetheless, Henry included her in his will, and on the death of her half-brother, Edward VI, on July 6, 1553, she became the legal heir to the throne. Although Lord High Chamberlain John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland, favoured the succession of his daughter-in-law, Lady Jane Grey, and proclaimed her queen on July 10, the country supported Mary. As a Roman Catholic, Mary began her reign by sweeping awa...

And with BrainPort, a camera worn by a blind person captures images and transmits signals to electrodes slipped onto the tongue, causing tingling sensations that a person can learn to decipher as the location and movement of objects. Ms. Campbell's artificial retina works similarly, except it produces the sensation of sight, not tingling on the tongue. Developed by Dr. Mark S. Humayun, a retinal surgeon at the University of Southern California, it drew on cochlear implants for the deaf and is partly financed by a cochlear implant maker. It is so far being used in people with retinitis pigmentosa, in which photoreceptor cells, which take in light, deteriorate. Gerald J. Chader, chief scientific officer at the University of Southern California's Doheny Retinal Institute, where Dr. Humayun works, said it should also work for severe cases of age- related macular degeneration, the major cause of vision loss in older people.
satire, reflecting one of the most major human vices greed, that leads people to commit a terrible kind of actions, just to get a profit. A considerate and thoughtful reader, who has begun to read the work, could pay his attention to the other sarcastic moment, which appears in the discrepancy of the title with its actual content. Few people dare to call a proposal "modest", when it means that helpless and innocent children will "contribute to the feeding, and partly to the clothing of many thousands" in order to improve the economic situation of Ireland as well as the standards of living (Swift, 53). These words "can take the reader's breath away, both by the calmness with which it is offered and by the devastatingly quiet logic with which its implications are explained" (Cunningham, Reich, 240-241). However, the fact that author speaks about infanticide and cannibalism with such ease, and without any sense of guilt tempts us to believe, that his offer is
- why did the baseball move? because someone hit it 4. Final cause: - what end or goal does it have? - why does he walk? because he wants to be healthy - also nature operates in terms of final causes - things don't happen spontaneously, every action that nature takes is for the sake of something, everything has a purpose - where a series has a completion, all the previous steps are done for the sake of that - art partly competes with and imitates nature - animals and plants do things for the sake of an end - plants grow leaves to provide shade for fruit - has roots downwards for nourishment - spiders have a web to catch flies Bacon - argues against Aristotle and his theory of syllogism (deduction) - Deduction: All men are mortal - Socrates is a man - Therefore, Socrates is mortal
valuable. The benefit of this CHP production is not allocated to the heat . Some biomass is used to produce district heating, but biomass use is complicated due to deficient fuel supply systems and government scepticism toward renewable energy. There is also much resistance to waste incineration from the public as well as from politicians. Financing may be a rather large barrier, partly due to a certain district heating disconnection tendency. The many private foreign district-heating companies in the Czech Republic may be a difficult target for Swedish and other district heating companies from abroad that are not established in the country. There may also be some reluctance toward foreign enterprises. A certain barrier is the common corruption by public procurement (Tabel ). The value chain is sometimes fragmented into production and distribution run by different actors.
of North America, Canada is the world's second largest country in total area. The highest point in Canada is Mount Logan 6,050 m, which is in the Yukon. The two principal river systems are the Mackenzie and the St. Lawrence. The St. Lawrence, with its tributaries, is navigable for over 3,058 km. The largest lake situated entirely in Canada is Great Bear Lake at 31,328 km2 in the Northwest Territories. The largest lake which is at least partly in Canadian territory is Lake Superior Climate Canada's climate is as diverse as its landscape. Generally, Canadians enjoy four very distinct seasons, particularly in the more populated regions along the US border. Daytime summer temperatures can rise to 35°C and higher, while lows of -25°C are not uncommon in winter. More moderate temperatures are the norm in spring and fall. Summers can be hot and dry on the prairies, humid in central Canada, and milder on the coasts
himself feels ironic about them. Sometimes quot marks are used to show that words are used in some specific or narrower meaning. Capital letters are involved in personification and antonomasia. Words may contain only capital letters for emphatic purposes. E.g. WILL YOU BE QUIET! He shouted. It is a tradition to begin every poetic line with a capital letter. It has been a tradition in every language but nowadays it is chopped either partly or altogether to create intimacy with the reader. Even in headings small letters tend to be used. E.g. under milk wood (by dylan thomas). The arrangement of lines on a page has become very significant in poetry. The so called figure poems have appeared. There are poems having shape of a figure (star, fly) depending on a context. Multiplication of letters, that is, letters are doubled to reflect the way they are pronounced. E.g. laaaaarge, ruuuuuuin.
At the end of the fourth century AD the Roman Empire began to crumble and the Roman armies were recalled from Britain to defend Rome itself. Once they had left, tribes such as Angles, Saxons and Jutes invaded and settled in from Holland, Germany and Denmark. Together they are known as Anglo-Saxons. They were farming people who preferred living outside towns. For a while London probably lay in ruins, but it eventually developed again, partly because its position on the river was good for trading. In 1666 most of the City of London was destroyed in the Great Fire of London. London Bridge The home of the London Bridge is the Thames River, and a bridge has existed on the spot for at least the last 2000 years. The first bridge on record was constructed by the Romans, and since then many bridges have risen at the hands of various empires. London Bridge today remains
