7 wax. The coating of wax likely served as protection against respiratory droplet contamination, but it was not known at the time if coughing carried the plague. It was likely that the overcoat was waxed to simply prevent sputum or other bodily fluids from clinging to it.

Since the plague often tended to manifest itself first in the lymph nodes, particular attention was paid to protecting the armpits, neck, and groin. It is not
Though rap is usually an integral component of hip hop music, DJs sometimes perform and record alone, and many instrumental acts are also defined as hip hop. Hip hop arose in New York City when DJs began isolating the percussion break from funk, or rock songs for audiences to dance to. The role of the MC was originally to introduce the DJ and the music, and to keep the audience excited. The MC would speak between songs, giving exhortations to dance, greetings to audience members, jokes and anecdotes. Eventually, this practice became more stylized, and came to be known as rapping. By 1979, hip hop had become a commercially recorded music genre, and began to enter the American mainstream. It also began its spread across the world. In the 1990s, a form called gangsta rap became a major part of American music, causing significant controversy over lyrics which were perceived by some as promoting violence, promiscuity, drug use and misogyny
The square in front of Tallinn's Town Hall functioned as a marketplace for centuries, dating back to times even before the Town Hall itself was built. Through the years this served as a place of celebrations as well as executions. Today the square remains a cultural focal point for the city. In summer, it's filled with outdoor cafés and is home to countless openair concerts, handicraft fairs and medieval markets. In winter, an annual Christmas Market enchants the crowds on the square, as does the town's Christmas tree (a tradition whose roots stretch back to 1441), which stays up for a month or more. Town Hall Square has also become the traditional centre of the Old Town Days festival, a modern version of a medieval carnival. Traditions from the Middle Ages are kept alive here, including parades, a knights' tournament, a parrotshooting contest and the election of the May Count. Tallinn`s late Gothic Town Hall building is one of...
Simple Plan. Simple Plan is a French Canadian pop punk band. It consists of five members: Jeff Stinco, who plays the lead guitar, Chuck Comeau, who plays the drums, Pierre Bouvier, who is the lead vocals and plays occasional guitar, Sebastien Lefebvre, who is the vocals and plays the rhythm guitar and David Desrosiers, who is the vocals and plays the bass guitar.

unlikely to recommend his suit." This may show that Mr. Darcy had zero comprehension of politeness, but it can also serve as a proof of the deep-rooted understandings of equal fortune and class between the ones who tie the knot in the 19th century. Obviously marriage was not the only point that was affected by the class divisions. A conversation carried out by the representative of a great titled family and the members of mediocre class illustrates the differences between them in even the smallest aspects of the everyday life. "When my niece Georgiana went to Ramsgate last summer, I made a point of her having two men servants go with her. You must send John with the young ladies, Mrs. Collins." This statement from an aristocrat, Lady Catherine, to the girls of rather inferior descent, comes to show that if one Miss from a noble family required two servants whilst

3. Narrative opens in media res. This means "in the middle of things," usually with the hero at his lowest point. Earlier portions of the story appear later as flashbacks. 4. Catalogs and geneaologies are given. These long lists of objects, places, and people place the finite action of the epic within a broader, universal context. Oftentimes, the poet is also paying homage to the ancestors of audience members. 5. Main characters give extended formal speeches. 6. Use of the epic simile. A standard simile is a comparison using "like" or "as." An epic or Homeric simile is a more involved, ornate comparison, extended in great detail. 7. Heavy use of repetition and stock phrases. The poet repeats passages that consist of several
Translation began by the church of england in 1604 and completed in 1611. It was the third official translation into english. The first was the great bible which was made during the reign of kind henry VIII and the second was bishops bible. They started making the new version in 1604 because the puritans(a factino within the church of england) perceived (detected)problems with earlier translations. 2.The translation was done by 47 scholars, all of who were members of the Church of England. The New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew text, while the Apocrypha were translated from the Greek and Latin. Over the course of the 18th century, the Authorized Version supplanted the Latin Vulgate as the standard version of scripture for English speaking scholars. Person on the picture is william tyndale. His translation was the first print of the new testament in
by both countries in 1839. (3) 2.11 The Development of Parliamentary Democracy The second half of the 19th century was marked by a liberalization of the Netherlands government under the impact of the revolutions that had swept Europe during the 1840s. The seeds of reform were contained in the new constitution of 1848, which became the foundation of the present democracy. Under its provisions arbitrary personal rule by the monarch was no longer possible. The members of the first chamber of parliament, who had formerly been appointed by the king, were thereafter elected by the provincial states (assemblies). All people paying taxes in excess of a stipulated sum chose members of the states and of the second chamber of parliament. The almost solidly Roman Catholic southern provinces of Limburg and Noord-Brabant, treated as conquered territories under the republic, had been given equal status
landowners and men who could afford to rent property over a certain rateable value. During the 18th century, the House of Commons did not come close to representing the actual distribution of the population and wealth across the country. The system was synonymous with corruption and bribery and according to Thompson (1963, pp. 888 - 901) the "rotten boroughs" such as Gatton in Surrey had only seven voters and returned two members of parliament. The franchise was only available to an elite group, clearly illustrating that the majority were excluded and unable to give their consent to parliament process. To consider Locke's theory of limited government in a contemporary setting, it can be definitely accepted that there is a larger electorate within the United Kingdom, for example. At the same time it can be argued that there is little to differentiate

It indicates to what extent a culture programs its members to feel either uncomfortable or comfortable in unstructured situations. Unstructured situations are novel, unknown, surprising, different from usual. Uncertainty avoiding cultures try to minimize the possibility of such situations by strict laws and rules, safety and security measures, and on the philosophical and religious level by a belief in absolute Truth. The opposite type, uncertainty accepting cultures, are more tolerant of opinions different from what
the era of "carpenter engineers." Men like Timothy Palmer, Lewis Wernwag, Theodore Burr, and Ithiel Town followed British custom by conceiving and building truss forms predicated on intuition and pragmatic rules of thumb. Their craft tradition of knowledge, passed down from master to apprentice, contrasted with the scientific analysis and mathematical formulas practised by French government engineers. Models were built and loaded to failure and broken members replaced with stronger ones until the model supported loadings equivalent to a real live load plus a safety factor. Patents were granted in the USA for composite wood and iron bridges, transitional structures that capitalized on the availability of cheap timber. When the American iron industry caught up with Europe's by the mid-19th century, bridge building took the direction of composite pin-connected
POINT OF VIEW Book is written using the first person perspective Alex's narration includes many uncommon words and a slang called Nadsat, which are apparently common to the speech of the youth subculture in the novel. MAIN CHARACTERS Alex is a protagonist. Alex is very easily irritable and very violent, for example he is very fond of opera and classical music but his friend Dim mocks it. Alex gets furious and punches Dim. He is also very arrogant even his gang members think so. The only thing that Alex values is violence and power. He thinks that Devil is inside him and explains that way his violent acts. He is from a good family and enjoys the power he has over his close ones. He has no empathy for his victims that mean he is very cruel. There are two things that Alex enjoys: blood and classical music. IS THE PORTRAYAL OF THE CHARACTERS BELIEVABLE? WHY/NOT? While reading the book, it seems very real, because characters are very well described
and children were slaughtered by U.S. cavalrymen at Wounded Knee and South Dakota, in a final spasm of ferocity. A stupefying record of greed and treachery, of heroism and pain, had come to an end, a record forever staining the immense history of the westward movement, which in its drama and tragedy is also distinctively and unforgettably American. Native Americans today have a special relationship with the United States of America. They can be found as members of nations, tribes, or bands of Native Americans who have sovereignty or independence from the government of the United States. Their societies and cultures still flourish amidst a larger immigrated American populace of African, Asian, European and Middle Eastern people. Native Americans, who were not already U.S. citizens, were granted citizenship in 1924 by the Congress of the United States..

Truancy in school individual responsibility Hello ladies and gentlemen, today I am here to talk to you about truancy in school and why is it an individual responsibility. Truancy in school is a very serious problem nowadays. Unfortunately many students have lost their motivation to study. According to the BBC 400,000 children were persistently absent from England's schools in the past year and missed about one month of school each. The effect that poor attendance at school can have on a child's education can be permanent and damaging but skipping should be child's own responsibility and it is not right to punish the parents for it. Students have many reasons why they are skipping school, mostly they do not like the teachers or the subjects that they are taught. They tend think that they won't need those subjects in their future life. Some children are just lazy and irresponsible. Also one serious reason is bull...

January 17, 2014 Dear Sir/Madam I am writing to complain about the computer I bought at your store last week. When I tried to turn the computer on at home, it did not work. The screen was black and the computer made an odd noise. I performed in the manner as the user manual wrote. Since the computer was guaranteed for 2 years, I took it back to your store but the shop assistant did not help me. She was impolite and arrogant and she said that she could do nothing. I am most disappointed and require my money back or a new product. I hope that this problem will find a solution in a week.

governor of the Church of England, nowadays monarchs reign but they do not rule. Parliament is the supreme legislative authority. There is usually a one-party government. It consists of three separate elements: the Sovereign, the House of Lords and the elected House of Commons. After passing through the House of Commons, all bills are debated in the House of Lords, and after that, signed by the Queen. As a result the bills then become laws. There are 650 Members of Parliament in the House of Commons. Leaders of the Government and the Opposition sit in the front row and their supporters sit behind them. The House is presided over by the Speaker. He/she is elected by the MPs. The members of the House of Lords are not elected. This chamber consists of the Lords Spiritual. The House of Lords is presided over by the Lord Chancellor. There are about 1200 members there. There are 2 main parties: the Labour Party and the Conservative Party. The
which law should be used to enforce any particular social norm. There are many ways in which behaviour can be controlled without having to resort to the criminal justice system. Indeed, in those cases where there is no clear consensus on the given norm, the use of criminal law by the group in power to prohibit the behaviour of another group may be considered an improper limitation of the second group's freedom, and the ordinary members of society may lose some of their respect for the law in general whether the disputed law is actively enforced or not. Legislatures pass laws (called mala prohibita) that define crimes which violate social norms. These laws vary from time to time and from place to place: note variations in gambling laws, for example. Other crimes, called mala in se, are nearly universally outlawed, such as murder, theft and rape. Religion and crime
Estonian, Russian and Ukrainian. Nevertheless, there is still just one official language of Estonia, which is Estonian. Most of the people, approximately 900,000 live in the cities, such as Tallinn, Tartu, Narva. The most common sector that people work in is the service sector. People in Estonia are also involved in other sectors of industry, such as wood, construction, electronic and energy. Estonia is a democratic parliamentary republic. It has a single-chamber parliament with 101 members that are elected by the people in every four years. It is called Riigikogu. The parliament determines the income and expenses of Estonia as well as presents statements and declarations to the people of Estonia. It also has the right to accept new laws and ratify national treaties. It also elects the President and appoints other high officials. The President of Estonia is elected for five years and can be elected for maximum two terms in a row. Estonia
a sharp rise in the unemployment rate, which rose from a low of about 8% in 2007 to 20% in 2010. The government budget deficit worsened from 3.8% of GDP in 2008 to 9.2% of GDP in 2010, more than three times the euro-zone limit. By restricting severely spending, Madrid cut the deficit to 6.5% of GDP in 2011. Spain's large budget deficit and poor economic growth prospects have made it vulnerable to financial contagion from other highly-indebted euro zone members despite the government's efforts to cut spending, privatize industries, and boost competitiveness through labor market reforms. Spanish banks' high exposure to the collapsed domestic construction and real estate market also poses a continued risk for the sector. The government oversaw a restructuring of the savings bank sector in 2010, and provided some $15 billion in capital to various institutions. Investors remain concerned that Madrid may need to bail out more troubled banks

agree to call it a draw. Each of the Cullens take a turn with Jasper, and as the night goes on Bella is finally overcome by exhaustion. The meeting is called to a close, all agreeing to meet again the following night. Before the wolves leave, they request to familiarize themselves with the particular scents of the Cullens, so that during battle there are no mistakes. Each wolf, in turn, approaches the individual members of the Cullen family, smelling and sniffing them all. Bella recognizes Jacob as the reddish-brown wolf. She realizes he seems the most relaxed of the pack. Jacob meets her gaze and comes closer. Bella notices that Edward is measuring her reactions, clearly hoping to find her afraid or disgusted by what she sees. But instead of being afraid, Bella reaches out and runs her fingers through Jacob's fur. She is surprised by how it is both rough and soft
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. Sometimes the waiting lists for green cards can be as long as 15 years. There are different ways of getting a green card, one of them is family sponsored, meaning that people with close relatives or family members who are US citizens are eligible for a permanent living permit and this way is relatively fast as it is top priority. There are also employment based green cards but this is mostly only a good option for skilled and well educated people and as we know these type of people aren’t usually an issue when talking about illegal immigration. It is also possible to win a living permit in the green card lottery but this is only for people born in certain countries that do not usually produce a lot of
The United States Cabinet (usually referred to as the President's Cabinet or simplified as the Cabinet) is composed of the most senior appointed officers of the executive branch of the federal government of the United States. The executive branch is the presidency. It consists of the President (Barack Obama) and delegates (Vice president). All executive power in the federal government is vested in the President of the United States, although power is often delegated to the Cabinet members and other officials.

3) to make a gift to the Bennets (following God's will). 4. What was Mrs. Bennett's utmost worry? She was one constant slanderer, so there was nothing more enjoyable nor important for her than getting her daughters married as soon as possible (and show off about it afterwards). 5. Why was Darcy's marriage proposal to Elizabeth such a struggle to him according to his words? He was scared by the propriety and the lack of manners and intelligence of the other members of the Bennets family except Jane and Elizabeth. 6. How did Darcy justify his interference with the relationship between Jane and Bingley? He never ment to do any harm, but simply assumed by a glance that Jane isn'i into Bingley as deeply as It would've been necessary for a happy marriage. 7. What words did Darcy use to describe Elizabeth's appearance at the ball where they first met? He claimed that Elizabeth wasn't pretty, nor elegant enough to catch his eye. 8

Queen Elizabeth II is still the head of state in Canada. She is represented by a Governor General. There is a two-chamber parliament, and a system of provincial government with substantial autonomy. Parliament is made up of the Crown, an elected House of Commons and an appointed Senate. Each Member of Parliament in the House of Commons is elected by simple plurality in an electoral district or riding. Members of the Senate, whose seats are apportioned on a regional basis, are chosen by the Prime Minister and formally appointed by the Governor General, and serve until age 75. In conclusion Canada has a parliamentary government with strong democratic traditions and also a constitutional monarchy.

Her descendants were also members of the ducal family of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, a minor branch of the thousand- year-old House of Wettin. It was Victoria's desire that her son rule as a member of the House of Wettin, instead of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, because she felt the older name would conjure images of the shared Saxon heritage of Germany and England. However, the name Wettin was never widely accepted. Victoria's son, Edward VII, and, in turn, his son, George V, reigned as members of this house.High anti-German sentiment amongst the people of the British Empire during World War I reached a peak in March 1917, when the Gotha G.IV, a heavy aircraft capable of crossing the English Channel began bombing London directly. The aircraft became a household name, and coincidently was part of the name of the royal family. These bombings were coupled with the abdication of King George's first cousin, Nicholas II, the Tsar of Russia on 15 March 1917, which

THE ROARING TWENTIES In the 1920s tariffs were brought to their highest level ever and taxes were drastically reduce. The Roaring Twenties suddenly ended in 1929 with the Wall Street crash. This crash marked the beginning of the worst depression in America, called as the Great Depression. The period was full of contrasts. In 1925 Klu Klux Klan, who had killed mostly blacks, but also Catholics, Jews an everybody not born in America, had over 4 million members. The Twnties were also a period of sexual reolution, when the existence of an instinctive "sex drive" in young people, mostly women gained social acceptance. Radio and magazines began to present standardized behaviour models. That was the beginning of porn (don't read it teacher!). WORLD WAR TWO Relations with Japan worsed and while negotiations were underway between the two countries the Japanese attacked the American naval base at Pearl Harbour in 1941

I'm not surprised that never before have I thought about how will I get my own home, how will I pay the rent or a loan and the taxes, how will I provide a happy, carefree childhood and a great home for my children etc. All of that is hard. And that's not even what scares me, because everyone has to do that, and everyone does that, handles it in some way. What really scares me is the actual hard part of life. Think about the adults around you, who you really know. Your family members, relatives, acquaintances. Me and my friend - we got to thinking about our parents', relatives' and their friends' lives and how they have handled it and we got to a conclusion that something really bad has happened to each and every one of them without any exceptions. Some examples: losing a child, losing a husband or a wife, losing an unborn baby, having one parent leave the whole family behind, losing a parent while still young, having a handicapped baby,
Chinese Americans have made many large strides in American society. Today, Chinese Americans engage in every facet of American life including the military, elected offices, media, academia, and sports. Perhaps the most common landmark of the Chinese impact in America is the prolific number of Chinese restaurants that have cropped up in every corner of the U.S. Although many Chinese Americans in Chinatowns of large cities are often members of an impoverished working class, others are well-educated upper-class people living in affluent suburbs. The upper and lower-class Chinese are also widely separated by social status and class discrimination. In California's San Gabriel Valley, for example, the cities of Monterey Park and San Marino are both Chinese American communities.Over the years, many Chinese Americans have blended the American lifestyle with a more natively Chinese one. In most
I think the reason, why people are buying such expensive and overrated products, is that they want to be like each other or show that they are better or richer than the others. It is funny that people do things like these. Some people do not value things that are buyable, they value things, what they have. For example pensioners. They do not want expensive cars, technology, clothes or houses. The most important things for them are good health, healthy family members and warm house. They also want children or grand-children to visit them. Pensioners want peaceful energy and love around them, these are the things that money can not buy. People in my age also want some things that are not buyable. Everyone want a person, that loves us, by our side. Money can not buy ourselves friends or lovers. Of course it is wrong in some ways, because if you are rich, people want to be your friends for your money, but to be honest, these are not people to trust
tomorrow, but sooner or later we'll face the same problem again we have no food. / .../ The only thing to do now is to pray and hope that tomorrow will start. The nights are really dark in the north so the sun is as a new flow of life every day. 23 May, Wednesday Nothing's changed we're dying. /.../ The food is at its end and water, too, is `mysteriously' disappearing. The fact is that team A is stealing it Joshua found some footprints that didn't belong to any of our team members. /.../ Kaoru is quiet about the weather now the snow is getting heavier. No surprise if our camps were smashed one night. 24 May /.../ Our situation is hopeless, I don't see a way for us to ever leave this canyon... / .../ 25 May No food. The water is ending. Why? What have we done wrong to deserve such a cruel end? Back in Singapore we never harmed anyone seriously! Well, there were quarrels between the leaders, but that's normal in army... /.../ Sometimes I wonder how is Elizabeth doing
respond to touching in many ways, including milk letdown in response to the nuzzling/suckling stimulus of lambs. When young lambs sleep, they will seek out their mothers and lie close to them. Sheep conscious of their surroundings and thinking about individuals or objects in their absence Do you think that sheep are conscious? A number of complex behaviours are higly suggestive of consciousness, such as self- recognition, social communication, individual recognition of members of their own, or other, species, deceit and emphati and complex rule learning. However, reasonable evidence for many of these behaviours has only been provided in higher primates and even in these cases experiment are often open to re-interpretation due to limitations in the paradigms used. Recent advantages in functional brain Imaging techniques using magnetic resonance Imaging and positron emissioon tomography have allowed studies to be conducted in humans aimed at
people are projected to switch into Christianity, while 106 million are projected to leave, with most joining the ranks of the religiously unaffiliated. (See chart above.) All told, the unaffiliated are expected to add 97 million people and lose 36 million via switching, for a net gain of 61 million by 2050. Modest net gains through switching also are expected for Muslims (3 million), adherents of folk religions (3 million) and members of other religions (2 million). Jews are expected to experience a net loss of about 300,000 people due to switching, while Buddhists are expected to lose nearly 3 million. International migration is another factor that will influence the projected size of religious groups in various regions and countries. Forecasting future migration patterns is difficult, because migration is often linked to government policies and international events that can change quickly
