The duties assigned to the employee must be described in detail. 5. Remedies in case of illegal dismissal in Italy Discriminatory dismissal – the dismissal is deemed null and void and the employer has the obligation to rehire the workers. In alternative, the employee can decide to ask for payment of up to 15 months’ pay, considering their last salary (decision has to be made in 30 days from the employer’s decision). Also, judge can offer this payment. To calculate the amount the judge considers the last salary paid to the worker from the date of dismissal up to the date of effective reinstatement, deducted the earnings resulting from working activities performed during the dismissal period.

The present-day school system revolves around traditional education, in which students learn each subject individually. This structure means that pupils don’t have the capability or know-how to connect math, biology or even art into their daily life. Even though the tutors of this conventional education have faith in the arrangement of subjects it is still entirely about high test scores, grades and graduation.The essence of progressive, alternative education like the integration of subjects is learning and the accumulation of valuable knowledge & skill. First of all, the courses that should be combined need to be challenging to the students. It would be wise to assimilate math, physics and chemistry because these classes are very similar. For instance, in order to complete a physics equation you need to know math, the same applies to chemistry. If these

How does the United States influence Estonia? The United States of America is one of the most influential countries in the world. Its’ influence can be seen even in Estonia. Estonian national security is built upon being a member of NATO and it is dependent on Article 5. Therefore, it is important for us to be in good political relations with America because it is the most influential member of the organization. To stay in good terms some of our political decisions might be affected by the United States, however, it will stay out of the public view. Although Estonia is not directly dependant on America economically but as the United States’ economy has an effect on the global economy, we are bound to be influenced indirectly. In the cultural aspect, Americanisation is taking spreading all over the world. In our everyday life, we are exposed to American culture because it is everywhere: music, films, food. With th...

the endpoint in these developmental models. Third, cultural biases that mark these models have been identified theoretically and empirically. Fourth, insufficient recognition has been paid to the role of other modalities of expression in some forms of pictorial representation(e.g., Duncum, 1986; Golomb, 1994; Kindler &Darras, 1997b, 1998; Korzenik, 1995; Wolf, 1994; Wolf & Perry, 1998) . Critics of the traditional stage models of development argued that alternative explanations are necessary to account for the range of pictorial systems that children begin to develop early in life and to engage in research relating to the reasons for selecting specific pictorial solutions. It has been pointed out that even very young children have at their disposal more than one pictorial system and they choose among them as a function of their representational intentions and purposes (Bremmer & Moore, 1984).

Speculation about Shakespeare Authorship Main article: Shakespeare authorship question Around 150 years after Shakespeare's death, doubts began to be expressed about the authorship of the works attributed to him.[172] Proposed alternative candidates include Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, and Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford.[173] Several "group theories" have also been proposed.[174] Only a small minority of academics believe there is reason to question the traditional attribution,[175] but interest in the subject, particularly the Oxfordian theory of Shakespeare authorship, continues into the 21st century.

or unsolicited, can be extremely distracting to their peers who are indeed looking to educate themselves. This is a loss for both ends as unmotivated students get even more frustrated and the ones focused are forced to learn in a disruptive environment. In conclusion, there are pros and cons to both obligatory and optional class attendance but all things considered, it seems that the merits of selective attendance overweigh the alternative as college-aged students should be able keep themselves on the right path on their own. As the exceptions remain, problematic students should consider their options and contemplate, whether university is the right place for them. Triin Tammaru 12.d
Terrorism, is violent or destructive acts (as bombing) committed by groups in order to intimidate a population or government into granting their demands Mass mediaMedia exposure may be a primary goal of those carrying out terrorism, to expose issues that would otherwise be ignored by the media. Some consider this to be manipulation and exploitation of the media.[62] Others consider terrorism itself to be a symptom of a highly controlled mass media, which does not otherwise give voice to alternative viewpoints, a view expressed by Paul Watson who has stated that controlled media is responsible for terrorism, because "you cannot get your information across any other way". Paul Watson's organization Sea Shepherd has itself been branded "eco-terrorist", although it claims to have not caused any casualties The September 11 attacks (often referred to as nine-eleven, written 9/11) were a series of coordinated suicide attacks by al-Qaeda upon the United States on September 11, 2001.

MARKET Market system is an interrelated set of markets for goods, services and inputs. A market is defined as the interaction of all potential buyers and sellers of a good or class of goods that are close substitutes. · The markets provide information to agents that may be used to identify and evaluate alternative choices that might be used to achieve objectives. · Each agent acting in a market has incentives to react to the information provided. · Given the information and incentives, agents within markets can adjust to changes. The process of market adjustment can be visualized as changes in demand and/or supply. · Markets include all potential buyers and sellers geographic boundaries of market

Demand Better Transportation Planning --- Right now, most government transportation managers are focused on building more roads and highways. They are not promoting wiser, healthier, more efficient transportation methods. Each of us needs to demand that our elected officials support alternative, better transportation methods, as well as strict landuse zoning to reduce urban sprawl. 9. Limit Your Family Size --- Each person requires transportation. Our human population is rapidly rising to levels which make it difficult to provide adequate transportation while sustaining a healthy environment. If each couple limited themselves to no more than 2 children, our world's population could stabilize and support everyone without conflict or suffering. 10

and breakfast, manor hotel, hostel, motel, cottage, campsite, caravan and lodge. Officially in Estonia there are no accommodation types like lodges and caravans, caravans belong under the accommodation type campsite. Lodges in Estonia, also in Lahemaa are managed by State Forest Board (RMK) and are meant to be independently used free of charge by any tourists. If there is a lodge in a tourism farm, it is considered to be an alternative accommodation type. Several Lahemaa accommodation enterprises have stars (hotels) and other rural tourism enterprises have quality grades, which mean better conditions than the standard level. They are marked two cornflowers or tree cornflowers. For example - Toomarahva tourism farm and Hara cottage have two cornflowers, Eisma holiday village, Adami tourism farm and Raudsilla hiking centre have three cornflowers. There are some accommodators who provide unusual accommodation and other

Of course this isn’t true for every Estonian and once you get to know them they’re very open. • Estonians are patriotic due to the hardships during it’s history and their own shared love of their home country. • Historically Estonia is one of the "least religious" countries in the world in terms attitudes, though many Estonians do look for alternative beliefs. Language • The Estonian language is finno ugric, it’s closest relatives are the Finno-Ugrian languages of the Vedic and Livonian languages. • There are many dialects, the main groups can be separated into North and South Estonian dialects. • Besides the typical spoken Estonian language the second most notewordy dialect is the Võru dialect. • Estonian is one of the languages with a larger number of noun cases than typical.

Banaan muutub järjest pehmemaks ning enamasti meelitab magus lõhn kohale ka äädikakärbseid, kes banaane noolima hakkavad. Kui selline, pruunistunud banaan lahti koorida, tuleb nähtavale tumenenud ning veidi kleepjaks ja limaseks muutunud ollus, mille paljud inimesed ära põlgavad ja hoopis komposti loobivad. Teadlased aga ütlevad, et just pruunide täppidega banaanid on kõige maitsvamad ja kasulikumad. Küpsetes banaanides on rohkem vitamiine, mineraalaineid, need aitavad seedimist ning sisaldavad vähirakkudega võitlevaid aineid.

Through my entire life I have seen Estonia as a strong and fast growing country which is also a fact because Estonian economy was one of the fastest growing in the world until 2006 with growth rates even exceeding 10% annually. I find it being quite impressive. There are some fields which Estonia can fill with supplies by itself. We are nearly energy independent country, supplying over 90% of our electricity need with locally mined oil shale. Estonia has also an alternative energy sources such as wood and peat. I could call myself earth friendly because I love walking around the forest and breading some fresh air but I do not like the knowing that somewhere else our own people are cutting down the trees and mining oil shale for eleritcity and warmth but I know that we need those two things to survive and it does not make any different if we cut the trees in Estonia or in Finland. There are some sacrifices people need to make to live on.

pyramids in the Giza Necropolis and is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that survives mostly intact. Originally the Great Pyramid was covered by casing stones that formed a smooth outer surface, and what is seen today is the underlying core structure. Some of the casing stones that once covered the structure can still be seen around the base. There have been different scientific and alternative theories regarding the Great Pyramid's construction techniques. Most accepted construction theories are based on the idea that it was built by moving huge stones from a quarry and dragging and lifting them into place. There are three known chambers inside the Great Pyramid. The lowest chamber is cut into the bedrock upon which the pyramid was built and was unfinished. The so-called Queen's Chamber and King's Chamber are higher up within the pyramid structure.
their parents had built for them. Hippies rejected middle class values, opposed nuclear weapons and the Vietnam War. They embraced aspects of eastern philosophy and desired to find new meaning in life. Hippies were often vegetarian and believed in eco friendly environmental practices. They championed free love and sexual liberation, particularly for women. They also promoted the use of psychedelic drugs which they believed expanded their consciousness. Hippies participated in alternative arts and street theater and listened to folk music and psychedelic rock as part of their anti-establishment lifestyle.Some hippies lived in communes or aggregated communities of other hippies. It kinda identifies with the famous “yolo” (You only live once) thinking.

resources, such as hydroelectricity, must be used to match supply with demand. Large scale wind farms are typically connected to the local electric power transmission network, with smaller turbines being used to provide electricity to isolated locations. Utility companies increasingly buy back surplus electricity produced by small domestic turbines. Wind energy as a power source is favoured by many environmentalists as an alternative to fossil fuels, as it is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, and produces lower greenhouse gas emissions, although the construction of wind farms is not universally welcomed due to their visual impact and other effects on the environment. The intermittency of wind seldom creates problems when using wind power to supply a low proportion of total demand. Where wind is to be used for a moderate fraction of

Pessimism vs. Optimism Different approaches to the ‘population-resources’ debate Malthus Task: View figure 13.57 (page 378 of Waugh). Draw the graph and discuss. Malthus believed that there was a finite optimum population in relation to food supply and that an increase beyond that point would lead to a decline in living standards and to war, famine and disease. An increase in the population above the optimum limit would therefore lead to war, famine and disease. A PESSIMISTIC approach Thomas Malthus (1798) proposed his work during the early stages of the industrial revolution when inadequate food and clothing were common features in England. His argument was that population increases (geometrically) or at an exponential rate if unchecked i.e. 1-2-4-8- 16-32 etc Food supply at best increases at an arithmetic rate i.e.1-2-3-4-5-6 etc ...

was "converted by St Paul". § In 2006 Weldon was appointed Professor of Creative Writing at Brunel University in West London. She has said: "A great writer needs a certain personality and a natural talent for language, but there is a great deal that can be taught how to put words together quickly and efficiently to make a point, how to be graceful and eloquent, how to convey emotion, how to build up tension, and how to create alternative worlds." § During her marriage to Ron Weldon, the couple visited therapists regularly. They divorced in 1994, after he left her for his astrological therapist who had told him that the couple's astrological signs were incompatible. § She subsequently married Nick Fox, a poet who is also her manager, with whom she currently lives in Dorset.

jäänud pigem kaugemasse minevikku. Nii et, mingi mõju sellel siiski on olnud. Kokkuvõttes võib öelda, et riigid on siiski välispoliitiliselt erinevad, kuigi leiab ka palju sarnasusi. Peamine põhjus erinevustes on ajalugu ning vähesemal määral riigi suurus. Kasutatud kirjandus Andersson, J. J. (2013).

steel bridges, and pipes above and below ground. What's Being Done? Because of these problems and the adverse effects air pollution has on human health, a number of steps are being taken to reduce sulfur and nitrogen emissions. Most notably, many governments are now requiring energy producers to clean smoke stacks by using scrubbers which trap pollutants before they are released into the atmosphere and catalytic converters in cars to reduce their emissions. Additionally, alternative energy sources are gaining more prominence today and funding is being given to the restoration of ecosystems damaged by acid rain worldwide.

As a paradigm or worldview, constructivism (as a learning theory) states that learning is an active, contextualized process of constructing knowledge rather than acquiring it. Knowledge is constructed based on personal experiences and hypotheses of the environment. Learners continuously test these hypotheses through social negotiation. Each person has a different interpretation and construction of knowledge process. The learner is not a blank slate (tabula rasa) but brings past experiences and cultural factors to a situation The term ,,Constructivism" was first introduced to IR theory in 1989 by Nicholas Onuf. It was first considered as an interpretive meta-theory, a reflectivist approach. It emphasizes the social construction of world affairs as opposed to the claim of (neo)realists that international politics is shaped by the rational-choice behaviour/decisions of egoist actors who pursue their interests by making utilitarian...
following the evacuation. Ukraine depends upon Russia for energy supplies, particularly oil and gas, but also nuclear fuel. Although this dependence is gradually being reduced, continued operation of nuclear power stations is now even more important than in 1986. When it was announced in 1995 that the two operating reactors at Chernobyl would be closed by 2000, a memorandum of understanding was signed by Ukraine and G7 nations to progress this, but its implementation was delayed. Alternative generating capacity was needed, either gas-fired or nuclear. Construction of these was halted in 1989 but then resumed, and both reactors came on line late in 2004. Chernobyl today Chernobyl unit 4 is now enclosed in a large concrete shelter which was built quickly to allow continuing operation of the other reactors. However, the structure is neither strong nor durable. Some 200 tonnes of highly radioactive material still remains deep within it.A
Igatahes on selge, et kõik eelistaksid ideaalsete tingimuste juures alternatiivseid ja loodussäästlikke energiaressursse, kuid tõsiasi on see, et praegusel ajal ei tasu enamiku neist tootmine ära võrreldes näiteks nafta või maagaasiga – just hinna tõttu. Pilgud peaks olema suunatud sellegipoolest tulevikku ning juba praegu ettevalmistusi tegema alternatiivsete energiaallikate kasutuselevõtuks. Kokkuvõte 17 Steven Mufson.

Sellest sai poliitikute relv ja võimas vahend riikidevahelisel suhtlemisel. Samal ajal
