Essay Online news portals will make the newspapers a thing of the past Technics and scient achievements are newing all the time. For that reason people get more and more comfortable and lazier. Old traditions and values are disappearing from people´s lives. For example- films are now in 3D and 4D, people can shop online, they don´t have to go to the library to borrow books- they can just get them for free or buy from internet E-books. And what´s main- newspapers are also disappearing, people read them online.

Theodore Roosevelt Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt (October 27, 1858 January 6, 1919;) was the 26th President of the United States. He is well remembered for his energetic personality, range of interests and achievements, leadership of the Progressive Movement, model of masculinity, and his "cowboy" image. He was a leader of the Republican Party and founder of the short-lived Progressive ("Bull Moose") Party of 1912. Before becoming President (19011909) he held offices at the municipal, state, and federal level of government. Roosevelt's achievements as a naturalist, explorer, hunter, author, and soldier are as much a part of his fame as any office he held as a politician.

that they has made for himself for a long time period. In my opinion, we have to stress the words ,,long time period." Why ? Because I do not think that somebody has made an enormous success, when the goal they had made was not actually a challenge. To make it more clear to You, we should not use extremely widespread Borat's expression ,,Great success!" so often. A succesful person takes down such goals as a wish to be a director, to get promoted and to marry a very nice looking lady. Achievements which some people see only in their dreams, the ones you can be proud of ! Surely it depends on every individual personally, what is important for them. In conclusion, a succesful person is a person who has managed to break very many targets and such ones that really count and make a difference!

Phelps finished fifth in the 200 metre butterfly. Five months later he broke the world record in the same event and also became the youngest man ever to set a swimming world record. He has broken four Olympic records, two American records, one championship record and 14 world records, some even twice. He has 14 Olympic gold medals, two Olympic bronze medals and seven World Championship gold medals. In my opinion, Michael Phelps is a young man with great achievements and he definitely is a role model for many aspiring swimmers.

Wonders of the modern world I think that wonders of the modern world are scientific and technological achievements, not buildings anymore, like they were believed to be in the Ancient World. In my opinion the most important so called wonder of the modern world is Internet. It's just because it is so widely used in all over the world. It makes possible to do so many things, of what humankind half a century ago couldn't even dream of. It's only a matter of time, when there will be even more interactivity between the user and the website, like for example

Marxism Why to be for Marxism? 1. Belief that a working labour could be seen as joy if a workers sees themselves in the objects they have created. 2. Against exploitation of workers which basically means that workers labour is resold at a higher price than he gets paid for it. 3. Classless society which means that everyone is equal in a basic sense as a member of the tribe and the different functional assignments of the primitive mode of production, howsoever rigid and stratified they might be, did not and could not, simply because of the numbers, produce a class society as such. Why to be against Marxism? 1. Marxism removes incentive, with the slogan “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need” which implies that you should only get what you need, regardless of productivity or skill, which discourages people from working hard, forces production to fall, which red...

How to become successful? Success as a rather abstract term has become the main goal that youngsters want to achieve nowadays when they are putting the things in their lives into perspective. Success is measured individually by each person based on their values, intrests and achievements. But what could be the gameplan when inching one's way towards success in my point of view? First of all, i believe that figuring out the path one wants to follow in life and being persistent on staying on that path is even more important than a well-rounded education. An excellent example to support that idea is Steve Jobs, one of the founders of Apple Inc., who had a poor education, but a clear vision of what he wants to do. Conclusively, one will be able

about people? Nowadays a lot of newspapers and magazines contain stories, different facts and pictures with famous people. Some people think that only magazines should feature private life of famous people, but others think on the contary. This essay will show both sides. On the one hand, it is appropriate for a newspapers to write some information about famous people. People , who are intrested in famous people’s lifes want to know about their achievements, goals or other important things, than read about how they spend their holidays in the resort or with whom they go to the football match. Newspapers should offer more serious information, that readers may fill their minds with some necessary and interesting facts. Futhermore, newspaper`s journalists should focus on facts and checked information, not on gossips, that people are available to rely on newspaper`s articles. On the other hand, magazines are more focused on social news of famous
restoration of independence. Finally, the Soviet Union fell apart in 1991. I would say that this is the most glorious moment in the history of the Republic of Estonia, because not only Estonians but also other countries have a change to decide about our future by ourselves. In conclusion, 20 years later in Estonia was celebrated the singing festival, to note and remind the beginning of the reindependence. With these short 20 years, Estonia has made remarkable achievements, that wouldn't have been possible, if Estonia would have been under the power of the Soviet Union.
vulnerability to relapse, and the decreased, slowed ability to respond to naturally rewarding stimuli. Video game addiction Video game addiction, or more broadly video game overuse, is excessive or compulsive use of computer and video games that interferes with daily life. Instances have been reported in which users play compulsively, isolating themselves from, or from other forms of, social contact and focusing almost entirely on in-game achievements rather than broader life events. Crime addiction Societies define crime as the breach of one or more rules or laws for which some governing authority or force may ultimately prescribe a punishment. People, who are addicted to do crime are suffering in crime addiction. There are different kinds of that: stealing, killing, robbing, etc. Alcoholism Alcoholism is a term with multiple and sometimes conflicting definitions to describe
Many people talk about having hundreds of “friends” on Facebook. But these “friends” are not real, their contact with you is tentative, and they are quite possibly only fair- weather friends. A real friend is a person you can lean on for support, share your darkest secrets with, laugh and cry together with, someone who can hold you and hug you, wipe away your tears, go to the cinema with and talk with. This friend is ready to celebrate your achievements with you and is just as prepared to stick by you when you feel down in the dumps. Your real friend is not some faceless digital connection , he or she is someone who is always there for you. Friends are everything to me. Without friends life would have little meaning. After all, the moments what you will experience arent so meaningful if you haven’t got a friend to share the moment with.
Good afternoon! My name is Maris Ploom and I'm form 10 th B. Today I'm here to talk about the advantages and the disadvantages of fast development of modern technology. I think we have all noticed that almost every day there are new technology achievements at the stores. Whether we like it or not, it improves in every second, in every minute. So, is it a blessing or a curse? I'm sure that most of you think it's a blessing. We like our comfortable lives, we like it when everything has already been done for us. We want to have the newest mobile phones and best cars to show off and be better than our friends. However, it can make people selfish and egoistic. In the past 10 years modern technology has improved so fast that it is
relations with US President Roosevelt while maintaining a sometimes difficult alliance with the Soviet Union. Churchill lost power in the 1945 post-war election but remained leader of the opposition, voicing apprehensions about the Cold War (he popularised the term 'Iron Curtain') and encouraging European and trans-Atlantic unity. In 1951, he became prime minister again. He resigned in 1955, but remained an MP until shortly before his death. As well as his many political achievements, he left a legacy of an impressive number of publications and in 1953 won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Churchill died on 24 January 1965 and was given a state funeral.

Despite all this, Roddick is sometimes criticized for his lack of variety; however, he has developed a more all-court playing style compared to the aggressive baseline style he played with for most of his early career.

they may think is far beyond anything they will ever have to care about. But the truth is we are almost at the point of no return. It seems in this we are distracting ourselves from the seeming inevitability of our fate by becoming so engrossed in the pursuit of sporting "glory" so as to forget the importance of the pursuit of scientific research and its goals. The many important branches of research involved with the future technologies of humanity dwarf the importance of sporting trophies and achievements in such a way that sports becomes relative to the size of a gnat to an elephant. How long will we continue to delude ourselves about the importance of sports and its participants in relation to the value and vital nature of research technologies? The question of "what is a sport?" was recently bandied about on the BleacherReport.com and besides the myriad of opinions is this. A sport is merely a pastime, an amusement and nothing else. It makes me laugh to see how

Coast-West Coast feud during the 90s and had beefs with Death Row Records artists. Record labels based out of Atlanta, St. Louis, and New Orleans also gained fame for their local scenes. By the end of the decade, especially with the success of Eminem, known for his controversial lyrics beginning in 1999 with his second studio album The Slim Shady LP, hip hop was an integral part of popular music, and many American pop songs had a major hip hop component. The midwest rap scene also had good achievements with unique fast rapping styles from artists such as Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and Twista. The first hip-hop song was Sugarhill Gang- Raper's Delight.
inefficiency, it provided lively and spontaneous footage. Taking what he learned from the footage, Chaplin would often completely reorganize a scene. It was not uncommon for him to decide half-way through a film that an actor wasn't working and start over with someone new. Many actors found the constant takes and uncertainty grueling, but always went along because they knew they were working for a master. Though Chaplin is of the silent movie era, we see his achievements carried through in the films of today. With the advent of the feature-length talkies, the need for more subtle acting became apparent. To maintain the audience's attention throughout a six-reel film, an actor needed to move beyond constant slapstick. Chaplin had demanded this depth long before anyone else. His rigor and concern for the processes of acting and directing made his films great and led the way to a new, more sophisticated, cinema.
Report of Colosseum Koostaja: Maiki Joakit Colosseum or Roman Coliseum, originally the Flavian Amphitheatre (Latin: Amphitheatrum Flavium, Italian Anfiteatro Flavio or Colosseo), is an elliptical amphitheatre in the center of the city of Rome, Italy, the largest ever built in the Roman Empire. It is one of the greatest works of Roman architecture and Roman engineering.Occupying a site just east of the Roman Forum, its construction started between 70 and 72 AD under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus, with further modifications being made during Domitian's reign (8196). The name "Amphitheatrum Flavium" derives from both Vespasian's and Titus's family name (Flavius, from the gens Flavia).Capable of seating 50,000 spectators, the Colosseum was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles. As well as the gladiatorial games, other public spectacles were held there, such as mock sea b...
On the other hand, xenophobia is by far not compatible with the contemporary ideas of a modern society. Unfortunately, the phobias and prejudices that have developed during the past centuries are hard to get over. What would be the possible ways of getting rid of the phobias and intolerance that we suffer from? In my opinion, the key to success lies in education. Compared to the old times, we are now able to use an extremely powerful information search and exchange systems. Thanks to the latest achievements of technology and the wide spread of the Internet we have got a wonderful possibility to google for data. By acquiring a thorough knowledge of the cultural background of the people around us we will definitely be able to understand the newcomers much better and get over the prejudices we have developed. The more we know about each other, the better chance we will have to overcome the xenophobia and intolerance. Therefore, only through well-

My interest about the subject has not disappeared, just the opposite, it has become stronger! When I consider which are the things that I am most proud of at the moment, then it is pretty hard to point out something special, because I think that they are not really mighty achievements. One thing I hope is that I have been a son my mother is proud of because I have tried to listen to what elderly people say and have stayed out of trouble. Still, when I should bring something out, then I am glad that I have been honoured to represent Estonia in some international events. In 2007 I was a member of Estonian delegation in a youth summit in Rome, which was called „Your Europe- your future“ and it was the first of its kind. There we discussed Europe’s future and expressed our

I think that being healthy is very important for your body. Too be healthy you should jog a lot, eat healthy, get enough sleep and drink enough water. A lot of women spend a lot of time on their body to be in fit because they want to be liked (meeldima). I think that men spend more time on their looks then in old times. They work out more (trenni teevad). It is very important to visit the doctor usually, every month, because health is important. Jobs and employment My greatest achievements is that I graduated the 9 grade. I can be successful in a lot things, like singing and dancing, but mostly when it comes to work then I can be a great secretary. Because I have worked as a secretary for some time. I think that people sometimes fail at what they're doing because they don't know anything about the job or activity that they are doing. When I am choosing a job I must first like the job and it has to have a good pay (salary).
He was the youngest child of Johann Ambrosius Bach, the director of the Stadtpfeifer or town musicians, and Maria Elisabeth Lämmerhirt. His father taught him to play violin and harpsichord. His uncles were all professional musicians, whose posts ranged from church organists and court chamber musicians to composers. One uncle, Johann Christoph Bach (164593), was especially famous and introduced him to the art of organ playing. Bach was proud of his family's musical achievements, and around 1735 he drafted a genealogy, "Origin of the musical Bach family". Bach's mother died in 1694, and his father eight months later. The 10-year-old orphan moved in with his oldest brother, Johann Christoph Bach (16711721), the organist at the Michaeliskirche in nearby Ohrdruf. There, he copied, studied and performed music, and apparently received valuable teaching from his brother, who instructed him on the clavichord. J.C. Bach exposed him to the
The most problematic behavioral addictions among teenagers nowadays are playing video games, use of the internet and cutting. Playing video games Video game addiction, or more broadly used video game overuse, is excessive or compulsive use of computer and video games that interferes with daily life. Instances have been reported in which users play compulsively, isolating themselves from family and friends or from other forms of social contact, and focus almost entirely on in-game achievements rather than other life events. There is no formal diagnosis of video game addiction in current medical or psychological literature. Use of the internet Internet addiction disorder (IAD), or, more broadly, Internet overuse, problematic computer use or pathological computer use, is excessive computer use that interferes with daily life. These terms avoid the distracting and divisive term addiction and are not limited to any single cause.
Advantages and disadvantages of television Television is one of the greatest achievements of the 20-th century. It is the most popular part of mass media. Today every family has a TV-set. TV has changed much since the time of its invention and so has its role. There have been numerous debates concerning advantages and disadvantages of television. When TV first appeared its main purpose was to give official information to people. It was supported by the government. Now television plays a big role in every civilised society
Her reign was punctuated by clashes with Parliament over the succession, and her reluctance to deal with Mary, Queen of Scots. Within two decades of Elizabeth's death, the Elizabethan period had come to be known as a "golden age", a period of great literary achievements, the age of William Shakespeare, Sir Philip Sidney, and Edmund Spenser, but, at the time, the regime often felt beleaguered at home and abroad. Internally, Elizabethan England was marked by religious divisions, as "official" Protestantism was consolidated in the local communities, and there was intense commercial rivalry and expansion abroad. The Religious Settlement of 1559 was the defining moment of the English Reformation, while the

Hamlet WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Character List Hamlet - The Prince of Denmark, the title character, and the protagonist. About thirty years old at the start of the play, Hamlet is the son of Queen Gertrude and the late King Hamlet, and the nephew of the present king, Claudius. Hamlet is melancholy, bitter, and cynical, full of hatred for his uncle's scheming and disgust for his mother's sexuality. A reflective and thoughtful young man who has studied at the University of Wittenberg, Hamlet is often indecisive and hesitant, but at other times prone to rash and impulsive acts. Hamlet (In-Depth Analysis) Claudius - The King of Denmark, Hamlet's uncle, and the play's antagonist. The villain of the play, Claudius is a calculating, ambitious politician, driven by his sexual appetites and his lust for power, but he occasionally shows signs of guilt and human feeling--his love for Gertrude, for instance, seems sincere.

cover the reigns of both Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, with Edward VI and Mary I coming in between; although the more famous elements came during the Elizabethan period (1558 - 1603). Arguably, however, there was no Renaissance in England as it differed considerably to everywhere else. The dominant art forms of the English Renaissance were literature and music. Visual arts in the English Renaissance were much less significant than in the Italian version and had no real tie with the artistic achievements and aims of the northern Italian artists (Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello) who are closely identified with the Renaissance; and these art forms never went away during the medieval period and needed to be "reborn", they just took a step back during the Hundred Years War and the dynastic conflict of the Wars of the Roses. Music Music was an essential part of civic, religious, and courtly life in the Renaissance. The rich
Malia Obama and Sasha Obama Barack and Michelle Obama have two daughters: Malia Ann, born on July 4, 1998 and Natasha born on June 10, 2001. They were both delivered by their parents' friend Dr. Anita Blanchard at University of Chicago Medical Center. Before his inauguration, President Obama published an open letter to his daughters in Parade magazine, describing what he wants for them and every child in America: "to grow up in a world with no limits on your dreams and no achievements beyond your reach, and to grow into compassionate, committed women who will help build that world. While living in Chicago, the Obamas kept busy schedules, as the Associated Press reports: "soccer, dance and drama for Malia, gymnastics and tap for Sasha, piano and tennis for both." In July 2008, the family gave an interview to the television series Access Hollywood. Obama later said they regretted allowing the children to be included.
I think that teachers should be creative to blend so-called digital learning/teaching with old-fashioned learning/teaching. · Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity? Sir Ken Robinson claims in the clip that " creativity in education is as important as literacy, we should treat it with the same status." I totally agree with all what he said. We have very strict education systems that don't allow a room for mistakes and they categorize people based on their achievements in exams. There is nothing like potentials, creativeness, possibilities or even 2nd chances. Families put high expectations on academic achievements and they always compare their kids with other's kids. A minority in each community will be really dedicated to help their kids explore their horizons. It is true that we should re-think the fundamental principles in which we educate our children. Our task is to educate the children so that they can face this future.
Currently, e-books aren't that popular yet, but it seems that everything in today's digital world is achieving success extremely fast. However, it's not expected that the paper books will be disappearing any time soon. Of course, the book, that has been with the man kind for centuries and amused them, will not be giving up to something, that has only been existing for a few decades. Valga's High School students are generally aware of the changes in today's world, including the changes and achievements of e-book.Majority of students are interested in e-books - they are new and interesting, even though in reality they are just simple text files. With the responses i received from the survey, i can confidently say that printed books will not be disappearing any time soon. Nobody can predict when e-books will reach the top or what the e-readers will look like in the future. Nobody knows whether the paper books will endure for centuries to come or not. ALLIKATE LOEND
decline in quality. No Olympics were held for over a thousand years, until the year 1896. The games were revived by a French nobleman named Pierre Frédy, Baron de Coubertin. The first contemporary Olympic Games took place with great glamour in Athens, in the Panathenaic Stadium. During the first games, only 13 countries participated but now that number has gone up to over two hundred. Athletes from all over the world take part and their achievements are watched from both near and far by hundreds of millions of spectators. The differences between the modern and ancient Olympic Games can be clearly seen. For instance, in ancient times only men were allowed to watch and participate but that has changed now. Also, athletes don't have to perform nude, although the original idea of the games was to honour the human body. Each Olympic Games has an opening ceremony during which the sports stadium is filled with music, singing, dancing and fireworks
