EDUCATING THE STUDENT BODY

watching television, playing computer video games or talking or typing on their phones have an increased risk of heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes. Inactivity may also adversely affect your child's muscle and bone development. However physical activity helps reduce the health risk of obesity in children and the associated chronic diseases. Active lifestyle also reduces stress and calms kids, making them happier and more attentive in the classroom. In addition physical education is one of the best ways to battle both obesity.

Dioxins and furans in the atmosphere

Tööstusjäätmete põletamine 8 Why are dioxins a problem? Dioxins are widely encountered toxic substances. They are found in all environmental compartments, are persistent and, being fat soluble, they tend to accumulate in higher animals including humans. Their resistance to degradation and semivolatility means that they may be transported over long distances and give rise to transnational exchanges of pollutants. In addition, dioxins which were released into the environment many years ago are still contributing to current exposure. Even very small dioxin concentrations can cause negative effects on the environment and on human health, in particular on the most vulnerable groups like children. Human health effects include impairment of the immune system, the nervous system, the hormonal system and the reproductive functions. Dioxins are also suspected of causing cancer.

The Seaplane Harbour of Tallinn

These seaplane hangars are unique shell concrete structures, which demonstrate engineering 20 years ahead of its time. The Post-War Years On January 24th, 1945, the secret decision No 010 of the ESSR National Economy Council granted the military a 14.2 ha premises in the area located on Küti and Noole streets. From then on until the end of the 1980s, the whole territory was under the control of the Baltic Shipping Administration and other Soviet military contingents. In addition, the roadstead fleet was based at the harbour. For decades the area remained closed off for regular citizens. In 1951 a new pier No 36A was constructed on the former piers No 36 and 37 which were built during the time of hangar construction for the purpose of shielding the water area from north winds. In 1962, Professor Heinrich Laul of the Tallinn Polytechnic Institute published, ,,Reinforced Concrete II", where he discusses Tallinn's seaplane hangars as unique construction

Money is not the Most Important Thing in Life

proper nutrition, education possibilities and health care. On the other hand, many people claim that one of the factors in life, which is undoubtedly of greater importance than money health. It is said, health is 'a blessing that money cannot buy'. What is more, money is of little consolation to those who are suffering from health problems. Despite the fact that money can pay for the best medical care available, this is no guarantee for a longer life In addition, most people would agree that personal happiness easily outweighs money in importance. Even if an individual is extremely rich, this does not necessarily lead to happiness. In some cases, the contrary is true and vast wealth brings with it a whole range of problems and insecurities. To sum it all up, although there are those who would rank money as the single most important thing in life, most people would disagree. Money, has an important part to play but perhaps

Letter and Essay 2008

Dear Mr Roberts I am writing to express my concern about the closing of the art studio and to bring out reasons why the art studio should be left open. Firstly, there are teachers at the studio, who offer tutoring for many artists. Furthermore, there are lots of necessary facilities. In addition, as the studio is located in an easily accessible area and opened around-the-clock, it is irreplaceable for lots of students. Moreover, young talents can exhibit their creations in the studio. In conclusion, it can be clearly seen that the art studio is important for many young artists, therefore we do not hesitate to even organise a protest march against closing the studio. I hope that the art department agrees and will not close donw the art studio. Yours sincerely, Mari Mets ESSAY

The most pressing environmental issues in Estonia

Nevertheless, those problems are not so significant than previous. One of the biggest problems in Estonia is air and water pollution. One example of air pollution is exhaust fumes. Today we have a lot of transport: cars and buses, in the main in our capital. Gases which are produced by cars contain carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide in the air causes global warming, which is the result of the green house effect. Furthermore, it will change our climate. In addition our air is polluted by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from plants and factors. Substantially, in Kohtla-Järve and Maardu. Our water is also polluted. We can't drink it, because there are a lot of chemical ingredients. In some cities water is chlorine a lot. As I know a lot of waste waters are putting out to see, near in the beach. In witness of it is appearance of blue seaweeds. In my opinion these thing is very dangerous and harmful for health. As I mentioned before we have also recycling problem

fun, but, in my opinion, it is much more interesting to be out with friends and enjoy the fresh air. HAVING A PET Many people today buy or adopt pets because they are very friendly. However, they are sometimes abandoned because they are a big responsibility. Therefore, we can say that having a pet has advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, having a pet is a good way to become more responsible, because you have to care for it: take it for a walk, feed it or wash it. In addition, pets are a very good companion and you can play with them as well as teach them orders or customs, like to dogs or cats. On the other hand, they are a very big expenditure. You must buy a lot of things for their care, such as food, injections or soap. Furthermore, if you have more than one pet, for example a dog and a cat, they probably will not get on well, so you may have problems at home. . In short, a pet at home is both a great responsibility and a good friend, but you have to

If I were an English teacher

If I were an English teacher I certainly would not be an epicene, sterile and clinical ,,toad". On contrary, I would make the best out of me to forbid all final exams and tests because I find final exams and sending students to olympiads rather pointless and waste of time because all in all they chase only the facts. Ability to think has fallen back substantially. I would do everything to help them undestand the system in addition to the facts or basic grammar. In conlcusion I would like to say that it is certain that teachers are the true 'salt of the earth' but do they have to be always combed and wearing a tie. I, as an English teacher, would give the best out of me to create a good environment between me and my students to make every class they attend enjoyable.

Ghana

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 state until its demise in the 13th century.

The Catcher in the Rye - kokkuvõte

The rebellious tone of the novel and its characters shines out right from the beginning, not only through the actions, such as getting expelled or being in a fight, but also through the frequent use of profanities, which make the characters more realistic rather than adorned. Even though the themes and topics discussed in the novel make it rather relatable, I believe they also make it unsuitable for youngsters who have just reached adolescence. In addition to the frequent use of profanity, the at times strongly depressive, violent or sexual tone of the novel, alongside with the difficulty of the problems addressed and discussed, make it overly difficult for the youngsters to completely understand, thus possibly leaving a wrong impression of the reasons for those situations and actions. To my mind, this novel is meant for the youngsters nearing adulthood, as their thinking is more critical, making the themes of the novel more understandable.

Life in town vs Life in the country

Life in Town is completely different. For example : huge shopping centres, better chance to get a job and crime. Huge shopping centres locate in Town, because population is bigger than in the Country. In Town there are lot of opportunities to get a job, unlike in the Country. Violence and crime is popular in Town, although in the Country it is possible too. Population of Town is so much bigger, that's why we can see broken bus-stops, defiled shcools and so on. In addition, I think that life in the Country seems so much better, in the other hand it is harder too. If people are suffering from stress, then it is right place where to relax or even live.

Global warming

More and more fertile areas become useless. Seas, lakes and other bodies of water dry out. Desertification does not only have an effect on the dry areas but also influences the areas that aren't haunted by the lack of water and land. Desertification has an effect on all of us. It slows down the development of agriculture or puts a total stop to it. The poor living conditions of developing countries drive people to search food somewhere else. In addition to natural ways, humankind helps along to the process of desertification that eventually leads to global warming. The main reasons are the fast growth of the population and it's consequences ­ too intensive animal raising and the arable lands that are made too fast for the nature to adjust. As I said before desertification eventually leads to global warming. Glaciers and permafrost have decreased dramatically on both side of hemisphere. In the future in the South-Europe the

There is no question that the accent of the house is living room, as it is the place where I can relax, watch TV, listen to music or just sit and look at the fire. In case I am speaking about my dream house, I must say that there without fail are sports hall with all modern and expensive sports equipment, and little relaxing sauna. There I could get a great rest for my body after hard day. In addition to this, I am able to add that there is a big kitchen in my dream house. The kitchen must be light and have all modern equipment such as huge fridge, microwave, modern oven, vacuum saucepans, dishwasher and some other things as dresser with amazing dishes.

I guess that he didn't even imagine that when he grow up, he'll have so many admirerers, but he was a musical person as a youngster. He started singing in a band when he was in the family band The Jacson 5. He started his solo career in 1971. Since then he was rising on the musical career table. In addition, the life of Michael wasn't as simple as people might think. He had a possible desease which changed his color whiter or he had done a surgery to make his skin lighter. People were obsessed with Michael's skin color change. Even the media wrote about it. I think that he had a surgery that made his skin lighter. Furthermore, Michael had more problems.

How does the United States influence Estonia?

and the impact to our culture more noticeable. Also in today’s society we are not limited by the state borders, therefore we can consume goods and media without any resistance. Nowadays we have become so accustomed to it that we do not notice how much American culture there is around us every day: the junk food we eat has become a quick and cheap alternative to home-cooked meals, the branded products we buy, the music we listen etc. In addition, the influence that the English language has on our mother language has many linguists speculating that Estonian will soon be gone and forgotten. We cannot deny that we have not taken up some words from the English language and that the younger generation is not using more and more loan words. However, I do not think that our language is in great danger because for example Estonian is one of the 24 official and working languages in the European Union

Are student organizations beneficial for students?

One the one hand it appears that some students might support and think that student organizations are really advantageous for them and others do not support that idea. For example many stundents might complain about that sudent organizations are full of politics and assuming that they do not consider it necessary and beneficial to join any of them. It seems that they may have based their opinion on someone else’s comments or experience and not on their personal experience. In addition it appears that students might not know the plus sides and possibilities that student organizations could enable them so they do not even bother to make clear the benefit of being part of student organizations. One the other hand it might be said that students who have been in many student organizations have got jobs or scholarships more easily than those who have not.

Which is better-a well paid job or an interesting and fulfilling job?

Choosing a profession is an important decision in life. It is often speculated if the job should be chose based on a salary or persons interests. The aim of this essay is to find out which job is better-an well paid one or fulfilling one. It is clear that people work to get money, but it is also said that money does not make you happy. You can not purchase friends, family or health and these are the most important things in life. In addition job greatly affects the life in general. So, when the job is unchallenging, the life becomes boring too. Money is not the most important thing in life. When people choose profession based on a salary, they could later realize that the work is unsatisfying. We hear a lot of stories about people, who first studied law, but understood later, that they are not into that. In most cases parents force their children to study a profession that pays well.

Environmental issues in Estonia

Environmental issues in Estonia The Earth is considered to be the most beatiful planets in the Universe. But our planet is threaten by environmental problems. Even a small country like Estonia can make difference. Our capital city is fighting against air pollution. But people produce much refuse and ways of recycling are getting old. Water pollution is also a problem in Estonia. We have factories that let their waste run into rivers. One of the biggest problems in Estonia is air pollution. Our air is polluted by exhaust fumes, because today we have a lot of cars, buses and other machines. In 2009 we had 407 cars to thousand inhabitants, which is lower than European Union average, but this number is still high. Because cars produce gases that contain carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide in the air causes global warming, which is the result of the greenhouse effect. Tallinn wants to fight against it by offering public transportati...

An effort has been made to work with the full extent of space requirements currently voiced by the Western Division Management Center and the Bella Coola Village Organization. Other organizations were queried to form the basis of judgment in determining the overall need. This recognizes that as the program development progresses, tenant requirements may change, but the essential square footage and cubic limitations for a below grade structure will remain. In addition, it has been envisioned that jointly required facilities would be available for all organizations to use on a shared basis, utilizing movable walls for privacy. In utilizing the Northern Pointe site, it is initially assumed that the envisioned facilities would be largely accommodated below grade, and that above grade structures would be intended to accommodate those functions demanding particular visibility and identity, such as a community recreation center.

Surprise

Surprise I felt so excited when I looked at the envelope. Because it was adressed to me and I hadn`t got any letters for a long time. I had just found it when I came to the kitchen. It was afternoon and I arrived from school. I hadn`t been expecting that kind of surprise at all. There was a name and an address on the other side, which I didn`t recognize. In addition, it seemed a bit weird that the envelope was on the floor, next to the table, but on second thought it could have been there by accident. So now I went upstairs, to my room and sat on the armchair. I sat there for a moment, holding the letter on my lap and looking out the window ­ to let the curiousity grow. Than I prepared to tear it open, but some noise from downstairs interrupted me. I sat still and listened for a minute, it was quiet again. As I laid my eyes on the envelope again

Because of the amount of coordination required for each project, both successes and failures would inevitably spring up along the way, giving the children a meaningful experience of what it is like to work on a real-world project. The teacher would have an important role, psychologically coaching the kids through the highs and lows of the project and facilitating discussions to make them work better together and motivate themselves. In addition, academic lessons would be split into two halves. The first half would be a basic skills seminar, and the second an advanced class. Students would be able to choose whether to stay the second half, or else they could leave to work on their current project, read, or pursue an independent study of another subject. The students who stayed - the "second halfers" - would be known as the students with the greatest passion for the subject. No grades or competition would exist

First of all, you can always enjoy your privacy, there are few city noise and inquisitive passerby, who usually do not go there. In most of cases, country house is built on a large area, which is still a dwelling house in addition to other buildings, such as a sauna or a barn. Great yard for children are convenient and good for playing, also there is suitable to grow some animals and keep pets. There is clean and fresh air, forest is very close, where people can go hiking or just simply walk and enjoy the nature. Home-grown vegetables and root vegetables are always more acceptable than a shop bought food. Living in the country is certainly cheaper.

Essay about Chinese language taking over English

Will Chinese become more important than English in the near future? As David Graddol, a visiting professor in Hong Kong, says in "Will Chinese take over from English as the world's most important language?", he must often answer the questions concerning Chinese importance over English. Graddol states that China's economy is growing and it is already second in the world. In fact, it has become the largest exporter and first in energy consumption. In addition, China will presumably be the largest manufacturer soon. However, he questions whether Chinese language grows at the same pace as its economy. Graddol's teaching in Hong Kong starts with a lecture called "World Englishes". He notes that he wrote his book "The Future of English" in 1997, same year when China got Hong Kong back from Britain. Graddol reminds the students, how many things wasn't happened then: euro was not put in use, even Windows 98 was not ready

Biogas – The source of future energy

The conditions attract anaerobic bacteria, which start to break down the organic material, producing methane and carbon dioxide as a by-product. Another type of biogas which includes hydrogen, nitrogen, and carbon monoxide can be obtained through the gasification of biomass such as wood or rice husks, a technique which is used to manufacture gas industrially. The gases produced through anaerobic fermentation or gasification are combustible in addition to having a strong smell which makes them stand out to the human nose. Methane leaks from landfills are an ongoing problem, as is the production of biogas in poorly maintained compost piles, manure lagoons, and outhouses. Spontaneous fires and explosions caused by build-ups of gas have been recorded in many regions of the world, illustrating a major problem which needs to be confronted by waste management companies.

Comparison of Education in Britain and Estonia

Photography, Psychology and Theatre Studies. Several Gymnasiums in Estonia also give their students the chance to choose some of their subjects from a selection of facultative subjects but there are by far more than 3 compulsory subjects for Estonian Gymnasium students than for the Sixth Form students in Britain. Lastly, schools in Britain seem to offer more facilities than in Estonia. Our schools usually do not have tennis and squash courts or football and hockey fields of their own. In addition, British schools provide their students with a wider range of extracurricular activities like martial arts, dancing and singing lessons, cooking, photography clubs, theatre groups, practice of chess and many different sports. Exchange students are a more common feature there and in the holidays, interesting trips are organized for the students by the school. In conclusion, I am satisfied with the way education is organized in Estonia. Although I

To swear or not to swear ?

as swearing often frees people from anger or frustation.Swear words can also be used in a more positive manner, in the form of jokes and humor, storytelling, self-deprecation or even social commentary. If one may want to emphasize how great one feels something is, a swear words emphasizes the positive feelings you have for that object, situation, person or event ("This concert is fucking awesome!"). Sure, one could just say "This concert is awesome," but the addition of the swear word emphasizes the emotional reaction we have toward it -- and easily conveys that emotional reaction to others (psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2009/03/30/why-do-we-swear) Thirdly, although swearing may have positive sides as well, it is still seen as inappropriate or "bad language", which comes from bad manners or low education. Especially problematic is it when children swear, although they may not mean anything bad, or do not even know what the word

Should a mosque be built in Tallinn?

permitted? Estonians often like to pride themselves for being more tolerant and open-minded than those from other post-soviet nations. This sort of a progressive mindset, however, rarely extends to the principles of religious freedom. But why? Why are so many people opposed to something that in its core is just another place of worship much-like any other? After all, the construction of the mosque wouldn't even be funded by tax-payers. In addition, most of us don't oppose the building of churches, even though Estonia is currently the 3rd least religious country on the planet. Many people fear that the building of a mosque would open a door for Islamic radicalization in Estonia. I for one, find that very hard to believe since the main cause of radicalization is not religion, but the feeling of exclusion. The feeling of not being wanted within society. Many parts of Europe are currently caught in a vicious circle ­ A terrorist
