Ireland is sometimes affected by heat waves, most recently 1995, 2003, 2006. Nature Ireland has fewer animal and plant species than either Britain or mainland Europe because it became an island shortly after the end of the last Ice Age, about 8,000 years ago. Many different habitat types are found in Ireland, including farmland, open woodland, temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, conifer plantations, peat bogs, and various coastal habitats. Forest covers about 10% of the country. Only 26 land mammal species are native to Ireland, because it was isolated from Europe by rising sea levels after the Ice Age. Some species, such as the red fox, hedgehog, and badger are very common, whereas others, like the Irish hare, red deer and pine marten are less so. Aquatic wildlife such as species of turtle, shark, whale, dolphin, and others are common off the coast. About 400 species of birds have been recorded in Ireland. Many of these are migratory, including the swallow
The Romans came to Britain nearly 2000 years ago and changed our country. The Romans lived in Rome, a city in the centre of the country of Italy .One day, some years before Jesus Christ was born, the Romans came to Britain. First invasion - Caesar's first raid In August 55 B.C. (55 years before Jesus was born) the Roman general, emperor Julius Caesar invaded Britain. He took with him two Roman legions. After winning several battles against the Britons in South-East England he returned to France. Second invasion - Caesar's second raid In 54 B.C. Julius Caesar came to Britain again landing at Walmer near Deal in Kent
the meaning of laws, applies laws to individual cases, and decides if laws violate the Constitution. 10. The first Americans lived in teepees and hunted buffalos. There were many different tribes and their food, clothing, homes and art varied according to the climate and landscape around them. In West the tribes were hunters and in Southwest the tribes grew corn. American Indians today prefer to be called Native Americans, they helped the early settlers to adapt a life in a new country. When the settlers wanted to take over tribal land the Native American were forced to move to seperate areas called reservations. Traditional Indian culture (including dances, religion and language) was forbidden. Today there are about 2 million Native Americans who live on the 278 reservations across the country. Modern Native Americans take pride in their traditions which includes the art crafts, costumes, songs and dances of their ancestors. 11
where members of one family, even living on the same street, may have had different citizenships and had to go through customs and border guards in order to visit each other. Fortunately, after both countries joined the Schengen zone, border points were removed and Valga-Valka is fast overcoming the separation issues. Two different currencies languages and cultures still remain, making the town an interesting holiday destination.

Roll" or "the King". Elvis Aaron Presley born in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley moved to Memphis, Tennessee, with his family at the age of 13. He began his career there in 1954, working with Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African-American music to a wider audience. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was the most important popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo,backbeat driven fusion of country and rhythm and blues. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", released in January 1956, was a number one hit. He became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll with a series of network television appearances and chart topping records. In November 1956, he made his film debut in `'Love Me Tender''. Drafted into military service in 1958, Presley relaunched his recording career two years later with some of his most commercially successful work. He staged few

The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see To most people, the words tourist and traveler have the same meaning - a person visiting a foreign country to see what it has to offer. However, for people in the travel community these titles may have vastly different meanings. For many, when hearing the word tourist, a stereotypical picture comes to mind: a person with cargo shorts, a hawaiian shirt, a huge hat and sunglasses with a camera around their neck and map in hand. That is rather common amongst tourists, wearing what’s comfortable and they’d wear at home and not putting much effort into blending in

Its highest point, the Vaalserberg, is 312 meters above sea level. The Vaalserberg is in the southeast of the country, where the borders of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany meet. The Netherlands has a temperature climate, thanks to its long coastline. The average temperatures are 18 degrees Celsius in summer and three degrees Celsius in winter. Average annual rainfall is 800 millimetres. (6) 4 1.3 Economy The Netherlands is a prosperous and open economy depending heavily on foreign trade. The
For instance in Estonia, in one of the most famous beach resort, they have separate female only beach, where this place and space has been guaranteed (Eesti Päevaleht, 2013). However, it can be said that world has become more international and global – they have had an impact upon cultural value system (Kinnaird & Hall, 1994). When Arabic female tourists are visiting western countries to learn their culture, it is nearly impossible to identify the actual culture of the country. For instance, in England, women from Islamic countries do not need to dress according to their religion, it is optional, but many of them choose to do so. From tourist point of view, England has a mix culture society and it is impossible to classify it as a genuine culture. The second problem would be generating enough tour companies who would deal with only with 5
Foreign trade Proximity to the Nordic markets, location between Eastern and Western Europe, competitive cost structure and high-skill labour force have been the major Estonian comparative advantages since the 1990's. As a member of the European Union, Estonia today obviously enjoys free trade within the Union, and full participation of external trade agreements signed by the Union. In November 1999 Estonia became a member of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), and in May 2004 the country joined the EU. Already from its early years of re- independence in the 1990's, Estonia pursued a clear pro-trade policy, opening up its borders to foreign trade and investments in a quite unique way. This early exposure to foreign competition and capital, guaranteed the country a comparatively quick transformation to a full-fledged market economy, dominated by the spirit of free-trade, already before joining the EU. Also as a consequence of the openness, many large

Australia Australia is the only country in the world that covers an entire continent, yet also the smallest and the driest of all the continents. It's almost the same size as continental USA, being the sixth largest country in the world. It's also the oldest some of the rocks are more than 3,000 million years old. Australia is often called `Down Under', because it lies in the Southern Hemisphere. As a result, its seasons are the opposite of ours. Australia, Tasmania and a number of smaller islands form the Commonwealth of Australia. Because of the country's great size, the climate in Australia ranges from tropical regions of
their own; which is the chief reason for that kind reception it meets with in the world, and that so very few are offended with it' (Swift). The current essay attempts to analyze the use of satire in Jonathan Swift's most discussed pamphlet A Modest Proposal and the purposes of using this specific genre. The pamphlet reveals a vast number of social and religious problems: one of the major at those days was beggary. The satire was written in 1729, at the time, when economic situation of the country was extremely prejudiced by another crop failure. Thousands of poverty-stricken Irish were dying of starvation, causing the country's population to fall. However, despite the famine and constantly increasing number of deaths, the government did not implement measures to improve the existing situation. Thence, Swift, being an Irishman by birth and feeling disappointed of the ruling classes, proposes a solution to the problem by publishing his shocking work,
The accession negotiations and the forthcoming Turkish accession present challenges to both Turkey and the EU. It is widely accepted that Turkey's accession would be different from previous enlargements because of the combined impact of Turkey's population, size, geographical location, economic, security and military potential. The case of Turkey will be different and more challenging from previous accessions for a number of reasons, some of them are presented below. Turkey is a country with a large population and geographic area. With a population of 74 million today, it is projected that it could be the largest member state at the time of accession. As a Moslem secular country, Turkey will also add a new demographic and religious dimension to the EU. Also, the presence of a large number of Turkish immigrants in European countries raises the issue of possible additional migration, as a natural consequence of accession, which may affect the labor market and

live on my own. People say that when you live in the countryside you are living the easy life. I agree but physically it is very exhausting. You have to work hard to keep the house and yard clean. When you have a farm there is no lack of work and you always have your hands in the soil. At least there is always some action. Although living in the countryside has few bad sides, I am sure rural life stays always in my heart. To me country life has more pros than cons. If you are a maverick which I am then living in the countryside has the privacy what you need. Also you can grow your own vegetables and fruits when you live in the countryside. I think any fruit or vegetable which is from your own tree or a field is better than the one you find in stores. I think living in the city has a lot of disadvantages. The first aspect that appears in my mind is the crime rate
How does the United States influence Estonia? As one of the world leading countries the United States influences Estonia in many ways. The United States has a lot of influence on Estonia in politics, culture, technology and of course it still continues its influence. The United States of America is one of the biggest countries in the world that can actually influence the world in many ways. For instance when the United States goes to war, every other country that has singed a treaty has to join him. Even when the States are in dept they can have major influences on the rest of the world by bringing everyone else down to. A lot of business goes through the United States and when some deals go bad, a lot of other countries have to suffer because of that. The United States is often referenced to “The land of opportunities” because people can earn a living out of everything. Cultural impact is also remarkable
Estonians and their habits There are hundreds of different countries and nationalities in the world and each one is peculiar in its own way. For example, Italians are very impulsive. French people don't like the British. Germans are pedantic. Russians are generous, but lazy. What about Estonians? In Estonia when a stranger on a street smiles at you, you can assume that: he is either drunk, insane, from another country or all of the above. Estonians don't smile too often. Estonians are not very talkative either. In Estonian schools teachers have stopped asking their students "Are there any questions?" It is especially hard to keep a conversation flowing with an Estonian when you don't know each other very well. I tried to make a conversation with an Estonian classmate of mine once (whom I didn't know very well) and it sounded like that: Me: So... what did you do during your holidays

communist party slogan from the second five-year plan, in which they wanted to full five-year plan in four years. In my opinion it goeds together with nowadays- that people want to get more and faster, they do not have any patience and expect everything to happen very fast. In my opinion there were 3 main ideas which go very well together with nowadays society ideas, problems and fears. George Orwell wanted to show dangers of totalitarianism, but nowadays if a country limits people´s freedom- it is also dangerous like putting a ban on media or internet. Also controlling information and history- country can rule people and who has never seen truth can´t see anything differently, if people hear lies all the time they start having doubts and problems in their lives. There was very well carried out idea about technology and power- how they can cause danger to people- nowadays technology is really developed so it is really

left behind.People lived in Scotland for at least 8,500 years before recorded history dealt with Britain. The written history of Scotland largely begins with the arrival of the Roman Empire in Britain, when the Romans occupied what is now England and Wales, administering it as a Roman province called Britannia. To the north was territory not governed by the Romans -- Caledonia, by name. Its people were the Picts. From a classical historical viewpoint Scotland seemed a peripheral country, slow to gain advances filtering out from the Mediterranean fount of civilisation, but as knowledge of the past increases it has become apparent that some developments were earlier and more advanced than previously thought, and that the seaways were very important to Scottish history Loch In Scotland, the word "loch" is used to describe any large, enclosed expanse of water (such as Loch Katrine, illustrated above), including areas coming in from the sea (equivalent to the Norwegian "fjiords")
Estonia lies on the eastern shores of the Baltic Sea on the level northwestern part of the rising east European platform. Estonia is a flat country covering 46 226 square kilometers.Estonian's neighbours are Finland, Sweden, Latvia and Russia. Estonia is rich in islands. The two largest are Saaremaa and Hiiumaa . Saaremaa is famous for its big meteorite crater called Kaali and Hiiumaa is famous for its nature and plants.

The United States and its economy are known to be one of the thriving and strongest in the world. It represents 16.6% of the world’s total GDP. The estimated worth of USA's GDP is estimated to be around 17.5 trillion dollars and dollar being the third currency in the world and the official currency of the US. They also manage a 5% growth every quarter. So how do they manage it? There are three main sectors that contribute to the USA's GDP. First is services that is 80% of the total GDP. The output of services in 2014 was 13,8 billion dollars witch was the nr.1 in front of European Union’s output witch was 13,4. The second contributing sector is the industry sector which provides 19% of the country’s GDP. In this area USA has fallen behind and has to accept the third position in the world’s total industry's output. First in industry’s output last year was European Union who had 4,6 billion dollar output, not far was China who ha...
want to experience it – in fact a survey found out that about 165 million adults worldwide would immigrate to the United States if they had the opportunity. Unfortunately not everyone who decides to live in America does it legally and that’s where the problems begin. Illegal immigration is not a new issue in the United States. For many years immigrants have crossed the American border through Mexico, the Pacific Ocean or some other way. Also there are people who enter the country with a visa but stay for a longer time than it allows them to. Every day thousands of immigrants come to the United States and in March 2010 the estimated number of illegal aliens in the States was about 11 200 000. About eight million of them had jobs. But why are there so many illegal immigrants in the US? Is it truly that difficult to get a green card in the United States? It actually is - the whole process can be very time-consuming and confusing

The booming tourism sector and a solid industrial base have left its citizens in better economic shape than the rest of the country. Unemployment is minimal, the shops are full, and façades that were crumbling a decade ago have been given face-lifts. Big new shopping malls and multiplex cinemas are popping up all over the place, there's a huge new sporting and events arena, the metro system is being extended and a new floodprotection system has been installed. There are downsides, of course. Rumours of corruption in City Hall are rife, affordable
On his father's death in 1035, William was recognised as heir, with his great uncle serving as regent. In 1042 he began to take more personal control. From 1046 until 1055 he dealt with a series of baronial rebellions. William's political and military successes helped him in negotiations to marry Matilda, daughter of Count Baldwin of Flanders in 1053. When William was 24 years old, he visited England for the first time. When he saw what a pleasant country it was, he thought he would like to be its king. So he persuaded Edward to promise him the crown. This was something which Edward had no right to do because in those days the King was chosen by a council of wise men. So William had no chance at all. Harold was crowned the King of England on January 5 th, 1066 . William was more than angry when he heard this. He gathered an army all over Europe and started the battle for the crown. William landed in the south of

It is the goddess of Freedom.When Congress meets, the statue has a light.Today, the Capitol has 540 rooms. Visitors can see many of these rooms
Homelessness Every night thousands of people are on the streets. This type of behavior is considered deviant because it does not reflect the norms and values of our society. In many cases the homeless people in our country are treated as total outcasts. Many of these people have severe mental disorders. Some are victims of an economy that has failed them. The homeless are in need. As fellow humans we are obligated to help those in need. They are not only in need of money, but they are also in need of our attention and our support. In the past fifty years the United States has invested more money in helping the homeless people than any other country in the world. The result is that we have more poor people now
Ursula Potivar Geography of Madagascar Topography Madagascar is an island in the Indian Ocean off the eastern coast of southern Africa, east of Mozambique. At 587,000 square kilometres, Madagascar is the world's 46th-largest country and the fourth- largest island. Madagascar can be divided into five geographical regions: the east coast, the Tsaratanana Massif, the central highlands, the west coast, and the southwest. The east coast The east coast consists of a narrow band of lowlands, formed from the sedimentation of alluvial soils and zone, composed of steep bluffs, alternating with ravines bordering an escarpment of about 500 meters in elevation.
The United Kingdom is an island located on the North-Western coast of continental Europe, while the United States of America is situated mostly in central North America where forty-eight states of it's 50 lie, with the exception of Alaska and Hawaii. The population in the UK is about 62 million people whilst in the US that number is about 300 million, making it the third largest country in the world by population. The languages in Britan and America are varieties of english and therefor very similar. The capital of England is London and the capital of America is Wachington D.C., formally the District of Columbia. Whilst the capital of Great Britain is also it's largest city, it is not so in the United States, where the biggest city is New York with a population of over 8 million and about 20 million if you count

Estonia has four seasons of near-equal length. July is the warmest month, and February is the coldest month. Snow cover, which is deepest in the south-eastern part of Estonia, usually lasts from mid-December to late March. South-Estonia is the most mountainous part of the country . The country's highest point is the Suur Munamägi. It is 318 meters high. There are some craters in Estonia. The biggest one is Kaali crater in Saaremaa. Estonia has over 1,400 lakes.

The Importance of English History Essay There is not a single country in the world without a history it can be either long or short, yet still a unique part of the existence. England has had many colourful events throughout the history, but some have dominated over the others and therefore all together formed a country we can see nowadays: the Great Britain. Starting from the beginning, Britain was part of the mainland until about 6000 BC, when it became an island. Ever since then it has been developing slightly different from the other part of the Europe. For example, when two parts separated, some animals had already adopted the life on the island and did not move back to the mainland.

Tallinn: Situated in the north of the country, on the shore of the Gulf of Finland, Tallinn is the capital of Estonia and also the largest city in the country. It occupies an area of 159.2 km2 (61.5 sq mi) with a population of 411,196. During different periods, the city has been known under several different names. In 1154 a town called Qlwn or Qalaven (possible derivations of Kalevan or Kolyvan) was put on the world map of the Almoravid by cartographer Muhammad al-Idrisi who described it as a small town like a large castle among the towns of Astlanda. It has been suggested that the Quwri in Astlanda may have denoted the predecessor town

It was also decided that the first modern Olympics would take place in Athens, Greece and that they would be held every four years. These Games proved a success. Paradoxically, the first president of this non-commercial and non- governmental organization was not Coubertin himself, but Demetrius Vikelas from Greece. Still Coubertin was the driving force behind the Olympic movement. Vikelas stepped down after the games had been held in his own country and then Coubertin became the president. Despite the initial success, the Olympic Movement faced hard times, as the 1900 (in De Coubertin's own Paris) and 1904 Games were both swallowed by international fairs, and received little attention. This changed for the better after the 1906 Summer Olympics, and the Olympic Games grew to become the most important sports event. De Coubertin stepped down from his IOC presidency after the 1924 Olympics in Paris, which proved much more
If an accession perspective were to be offered at some point in the future to any of the countries covered by the ENP, this would be a separate process. The main purpose is to develop free trading between EU and Eastern Partnership Countries and develop democratical views in Eastern Partnership Countries. One of the countries which I belive has opportunity some day to join EU is Moldova. The Republic of Moldova actively pursues EU membership, but it is poorer than any other European country and has to resolve issues over its break away region of Transinistra before it can join. Nevertheless, the EU is developing an increasingly close relationship with Moldova, going beyond co-operation, to gradual economic integration and a deepening of political co- operation. I do not think that the criteria should prepare countries to join the EU due to the fact that it would include Belarus, which is very undemocratic etc. I believe that the ENP and

Sel ajal kui ta töötas The Sun'is olid tal jämmimis sessionnid Carl Perkins kellega koos ta ka salvestas lugusid, kahekesi koos veetsid nad ka aega koos ja mängisid veel Elvis Presley ja Johnny Cash'iga millest nad ka lugusid salvestsid. Seda kutsuti ''Miljoni dollari quartetiks'' mis avaldati aastaid peale selle salvestamist. 1957 sai ta populaarseks oma unikaalse klaverimängu stiili poolest ja ta jõudis oma loo "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On"-ga PoP'i, R&B ja Country muusika edetabelisse. Tema tunnusteks said tema mürgelid laval, nagu klaveri lõhkumine, püsti mängimine, jalgadega klaver tagumine ja ka aegajalt klaveri süütamine. Kogu selle energiaga ehmatas ta alati oma publiku pool surnuks, mis tõttu ta sai ka endale hüüdnime The Killer (Tapja). Lewisel oli hea hoog sees, ja sama aasta detsembris avaldas ta uue singli ''The great balls on fire'' mis oli jälle järjekordne femonen
