This essay explores British and English history and its influence to the world. English is spoken all around the world. We can even say that it is a international language. It begun when Great Britain started founding colonies. Empire growed from the 17'th century up to 1920's. It was said that the sun never sets on British empire. It had expanded all over the world. In the colonies, English started to change, it had spread all around the world, just like the empire. It was leading country in the world for a very long time. It had strong economy and the strongest navy that any one had ever seen, so it was till the world wars. The British Isles, because of their good geographical position have been conqured only twice. And both occasions had a great influence on the language. First came Latin with the conquest of Roman Empire. Latin gave some terms to English and now it is a scientific language.

VI slaid These amazing little animals are native to Australia, and have taken their name from their ability to glide through the air and their love of sweet things such as sugar. These creatures are found along eastern and northern Australia. The Sugar Gliders are small creatures with a shiny grey-silver coat. They are around 40 cm's long from nose to tail, and weigh just 150 grams. They feed at night. Sugar Gliders can glide through the air for up to 100 metres. When they glide, they spread their arms and legs out and float down to their landing. They use their long tail to help steer when gliding through the air.Sugar Glider's nest in a hollow of a tree, or in a nest made of twigs and leaves. VII slaid The platypus is found in eastern Australia. They live aside freshwater rivers or lakes, and create burrows for shelter and protection. When swimming the platypus has its eyes shut. They swim underwater for 2 minutes, before returning to the surface for oxygen. Platypuses can
and Easter Day (the day on which Jesus came back to life). It is a sad story because Jesus was killed. But the story has a very happy ending, because Jesus came back to life and visited his friends and followers once more. He did not die at all, but went back up to Heaven to be with God, his father. The Traditional Egg Gift The first eggs given at Easter were birds eggs. These eggs were painted in bright colours to give them further meaning as a gift As chocolate became more wide spread in the 20th Century, a chocolate version of the traditional painted egg was developed. The size of the chocolate egg has grown over the years and is now more likely to be the size of an ostrich egg rather than a small birds egg. Special Food Boiled eggs are traditionally served at breakfast, then Easter cards and gifts may be exchanged Roast lamb, which is the main dish at Jewish Passover, is the traditional meat for the main meal on Easter Day.

It was an age of growth in Europe. New, powerful city states emerged. A new middle class had more and more money to spend. Great artists, writers and thinkers lived during this time. During the Middle Ages many people who lived in the countryside worked on the land that they got from the noblemen. In return, they were protected by them Between the middle and the end of the 14th century, the plague, also called "Black Death" killed almost half of Europe's population. It spread most rapidly in the larger cities where many people lived. This led to economic depression. When the plague slowly decreased in the 15th century, the population in Europe began to grow. A new middle class emerged --bankers, merchants and trades people had a new market for their services. People became wealthier and had more than enough money to spend. They began to build larger houses, buy more expensive clothes and get interested in art and literature
on him, atone for their past sins, and think of the needy. Sawm is not obligatory for several groups for whom it would constitute an undue burden. For others, flexibility is allowed depending on circumstances, but missed fasts usually must be made up quickly. 3) Alms-Giving "Zakt" is giving a fixed portion of accumulated wealth by those who can afford it to help the poor or needy, and also to assist the spread of Islam. It is considered a religious obligation (as opposed to voluntary charity) that the well-off owe to the needy because their wealth is seen as a "trust from God's bounty". The Qur'an and the hadith also suggest a Muslim give even more as an act of voluntary alms-giving . 4) Pilgrimage The pilgrimage, called the Hajj during the Islamic month of Dhu al-Hijjah in the city of Mecca. Every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it must make the pilgrimage to Mecca
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. Nevertheless, hip hop continued to increase in popularity, and by the year 2000, it was a staple of popular music charts. In the 1990s, gangsta rap became mainstream, beginning in 1992, with the release of Dr. Dre's The Chronic. This album established a style called
persons nobody was prepared to look after. In 1965 the Society became an International Religious Family by a decree of Pope Paul VI. Today the order comprises Active and Contemplative branches of Sisters and Brothers in many countries. In 1963 both the Contemplative branch of the Sisters and the Active branch of the Brothers was founded. In 1979 the Contemplative branch of the Brothers was added, and in 1984 the Priest branch was established. The Society of Missionaries has spread all over the world, including the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries. They provide effective help to the poorest of the poor in a number of countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and they undertake relief work in the wake of natural catastrophes such as floods, epidemics, and famine, and for refugees. The order also has houses in North America, Europe and Australia, where they take care of the shut-ins, alcoholics, homeless, and AIDS sufferers.
languages will be extinct by the end of the century. A language dies in every 2 weeks. So what will be lost when a language dies? Much of human knowledge hasn't been written down and it lives in people's memories. In fact, there are even laguages that haven't been written down. In the olden days people use to tell stories. They didn't write them down, just told or sang them to others, who passed them on the same way and so they spread from generation to generation. Now if a language dies, the folklore dies with it. So we will also lose our ancestors knowledge, in what they believed in, what they valued. We will lose the myths and legends, how the world or a certain place was made. In fairytales people learn about virtues, how to make a difference between right and wrong. If that was lost, where will kids learn their values then? From society? Where there are liars, thiefs, frauds, hypocrisists, violent and selfish people
Sixty-four species of mammals have been recorded in Estonia, three of them have been introduced: the racoon dog, the American mink and the muskrat. The European beaver, hunted to extinction by 1871, was reintroduced in the 1950s and a vital population of them (17 000) exists once again in Estonia. Another re-introduced species is the red deer (1500). An attempt has been made in Estonia in recent years to disperse the population of wolves, encouraging their spread in areas where their colonies have disappeared, and restricting their numbers in other places where it is too high.

The first free settlers arrived also that year. Relatively few new people were sent to Australia during the long wars with France from 1793 to 1815. The second governor was John Hunter in 17951800 and he was followed by Philip King. Under King the first colonists settled in Tasmania in 1803, Tasmania was then called Van Diemens Land. In 1813 a path was discovered through the Blue Mountains, that enabled them to spread inland. By 1825 the White population of Australia was about 25,000 with Tasmania having 4,500. The transportation location was again changed to Western Australia and it continued till 1868. The system of granting land ended in 1831. From then on land was sold. The rebellions in Australia started in the beginning of the 19th century in March 1804. Some Irish convicts led by Philip Cunningham took part in a rebellion at Castle Hill.

Riots 2) Racism is a common problem in many countries and in Englad it is present because there are many immigrants from all over the world. As it is a widespread social problem it's also one of the worst ones, because the hatred directed to different races or even nationalities makes the foreign people feel bad and also to hate the locals. This brings up many conflicts like the bombings in 2005 (when 4 islamic suicide bombers killed thmeselves and 52 civilians), but usually the conflicts are smaller, like brawls between different ethnic groups or mockery and insults. 3)In 1999 was the biggest racism related crime in the last 3 decades, when a Neo-Nazi David Copeland placed homemade nailbombs at public places directed to african and bangladeshian communities and killing 13 and injuring 139 people.,.

Chernobyl disaster Outline • What happened? • Elimination of the consequences • The Exclusion Zone • Conclusion • Quiz • Reference list What happened? • The Chernobyl disaster was a catastrophic nuclear accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine (then officially the Ukrainian SSR). An explosion and fire released large quantities of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, which spread over much of the western USSR and Europe. • The Chernobyl disaster was the worst nuclear power plant accident in history in terms of cost and casualties, and is one of only two classified as a level 7 event (the maximum classification) on the International Nuclear Event Scale (the other being the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011). • The battle to contain the contamination and avert a greater catastrophe ultimately involved over 500,000 workers and cost an
Media broadcasting (TV) Maria-Lisett Allak, Jan Kamenski To which time period does the usage of this media refer to? Television refers roughly from the late 1940s to the late 1950s. This period called "The Golden Age of Television" because at that time, the television spread across America very fast. According to The Television Industry: A Historical Dictionary, "the Golden Age opened with Kraft Television Theatre on May 7, 1947 and ended with the last live show in the Playhouse 90( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHPdXQwRnoc ) series ten years later. Television became available in crude experimental forms in the late 1920s, but it would still be several years before the new technology was marketed to consumers. After World
This reasoning has recently been challenged on the grounds that the deaths of poor and middle-class people were not recorded anywhere, and that the heat of the fire may have cremated many victims, leaving no recognizable remains. 2: How was the fire finally mastered? The battle to quench the fire is considered to have been won by two factors: the strong east winds died down, and the Tower of London garrison used gunpowder to create effective firebreaks to halt further spread eastward. 3: What did the Rebuilding of London Act 1666 say about bricks? That houses must be made out of bricks or stones. 4: Who was appointed to rebuild St. Paul's Cathedral and the ruined parish churches? Sir Christopher Wren 5: When was the Bank of England founded? It was established in 1694 (27 July). 6: When did Lloyd's of London begin to operate? The Society of Lloyd's was incorporated by Lloyd's Act 1871. 7: Why did William III build Kensington Palace?
*The act of riding waves with a wooden board originated in Western Polynesia over three thousand years ago. *The first surfers were fishermen who discovered riding waves as an efficient method of getting to shore with their catch *The first Polynesian settlers to land in Hawaii were most likely skilled in simple surfing, and after a few hundred years of riding the waves of Hawaii, the well-known Hawaiian form of the sport emerged. *The culture began early in the 20th century, spread quickly during the 1950s and 1960s, and continues to evolve. *It affected fashion, music, literature, films, jargon, and more. *Kelly was born in a small Florida town called Cocoa Beach on February 11, 1972. *This is where he grew up and learned how to surf together with his two brothers - older Sean Slater and younger Stephen Slater. *His favourite waves are Kirra (Australia) and Pipe (Hawaii) *His favourite surfing manuevers are airs and barrels.
Estonian National Cuisine re a d a c k B Bl The word ,,bread" came to Estonian from Germanic languages. Traditional black bread spread in Estonia in the second century. In a household people usually baked bread on Saturdays. Depending on the size of the family, they usually made 6-10 loaves of bread. One loaf of bread usually weighed about 2-5 kg. Beliefs and habits If a piece of bread was dropped, it had to be picked up and given a kiss so that hunger would not come to the house. A loaf of bread was never put on a table upside crust down
(inforsment). It's fair to say that individuals cannot solve this global problem all by ourselves, we need politicians to strengthen international law. What we can do is make a difference. Over a decade (dekeid) ago many people started buying dolphin-friendly tuna. Now the time has come to buy ocean friendly tuna. Here are some of the actions you yourself can undertake. What everybody can do to help overfishing: Be informed, Know what you eat, Spread the word. CONCLUSION: Over three quarters of our planet are covered by the oceans. Their biodiversity is unmatched and they contain over 80 percent of all life on earth, mostly unexplored. Millions of people worldwide are depending on the oceans for their daily livelihoods (laivlihoods). More and more all this is endangered because of ignorance and a global lack of management. Do not waste marine products too much. Here is my WORD LIST, REFERENCES.
century it was changed to yellow to allow improved visibility. The modern game of tennis originated in the United Kingdom in the late 19th century as "lawn tennis."After its creation, tennis spread throughout the upper-class English-speaking population before spreading around the world. Tennis is an Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society at all ages. The sport can be played by anyone who can hold a racket, including people in wheelchairs. Tennis enjoys millions of recreational players and is also a hugely popular worldwide spectator sport, especially the four Grand Slam tournaments the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open
The hall became the prime royal residence throughout the Middle Ages. Westminster became the seat of the royal court and government, while its neighbour, the City of London (a part of London), was a centre of trade and flourished under its own unique administration the Corporation of London. 1100 its population was around 18 000, by 1300 it had grown to nearly 100 000. The Great Fire of London The Great Fire of London started at the bakery of Thomas Farynor on Sunday, 2 September 1666. It spread rapidly towards the City of London. The Lord Mayor of London created firebreaks to stop it, but he was too late. By the time they started to stop the fire, it was already a firestorm. On that night, the wind was very strong. The houses were made out of wood and were very close together and the streets were narrow. More than half of London burned down. St. Paul's Cathedral, 13 200 houses and 87 churches were destroyed by the fire. There were hardly any deaths
many of the peoples were conquered by his predecessor Trajan, so he was keen to impose order. However the construction of such an impressive wall was probably also a symbol of Roman power, both in occupied Britain and in Rome. Frontiers in the early empire were based more on natural features or fortified zones with a heavy military presence. Military roads or limes often marked the border, with forts and signal towers spread along them and it was not until the reign of Domitian that the first solid frontier was constructed, in Germania Superior, using a simple fence. Hadrian expanded on this idea, redesigning the German border by ordering a continuous timber palisade supported by forts behind it. Although such defences would not have held back any concerted invasion effort, they did physically mark the edge of Roman territory and went some way to providing a degree of control over who crossed the border and where.
that is often accompanied by alcohol consumption. In conclusion despite of benefits, chronic alcohol misuse has serious effects on physical and mental health Finally a thought-provoking fact: "Excessive alcohol consumption in Russia, particularly by men, has in recent years caused more than half of all the deaths at ages 15-54 years."

the basic rules and nailed a peach basket onto a 3,05 m elevated track. In contrast with modern basketball nets, this peach basket retained its bottom, and balls had to be retrieved manually after each "basket" or point scored. In January 1892 there was also the first official competition with nine players which ended at 1-0; the shot was made fron 7,6 m on a court just half the size of a present-day court. Basketball was spread from USA to Asia, Europe and South America. At the end of the 19th century began professional basketball. (Wikipedia 29.05.2011) I played basketball first time when I was only 5 years old. There was cart table in my home and I spent all my summers throwing ball to basket. I continued to play basketball at school and I started going basketball training. Basketball has influenced me in several ways.

The conditions that is needed for germination are: * the right temperature in the soil * the right amount of moisture * the seeds must be alive *the right amount of soil aire, oxygen. Sufficent oxygen. 9. Describe the first stage of germination. The first stage of germination the primary root or radicle emerges. The stem pushes its way upward until it appears above the surface of the soil. At the same time the root system grows downward and begins to spread through the soil. The seedling depends on the foodstore until the frist leaves are produced and photosynthesis is started. 10. What happens in the process of pollination? In the process of pollination the pollen is carried by the wind or insects from the stames to the stigma of the carpel. It germinates on the stigma and grows down the style into the ovary, where fertilization takes place. 11. Name the most important stages in the life cycle of a plant.
sounds and ways. Mostly thanks to widespread experimenting happening all around the world, radical changes took place concerning the flute. Techniques from modern classical pieces(f.e E.Varese, L.Berio) started to come over and develop jazzflute even further. One of the virtuosos, E.Dolphy started to experiment and during his stay in Italy, started to study under Severino Gazzelloni(Pioneer in multiphonics). In the 2nd half of the 60s, Decade for bossa nova, started to spread from Brazil to North America and Europe. Bossa Nova(New Thing) and its rich harmonies and softrythms were an instant hit among jazz musicians and flute was incorporated almost instantly as one of the main solo instruments for this New Thing. On the other hand, one of the most influential groups emerged for this decade, Return to Forever, lead by pianist Chick Corea. This group firmly established the playing of tenor
2.2 Recent developments Many scientific advances have helped to improve patient care. Surgical and intensive care units now use electronic equipment. Modern hospitals are full of advanced equipment such as X-ray machines, ultrasound scanners and life-support machines. Computers help hospitals keep laboratory and medical records. Hospitals use many disposable items for safety such as plastic thermometers, and hypodermic syringes and steel needles. They are used only once, so they cannot spread infection. Scientists have also discovered all kinds of important drugs, such as antibiotics, and certain diseases, including tuberculosis and smallpox, have been almost wiped out. Antibiotics are substances, produced by living things, that are poisonous to harmful bacteria, but no the patient. The most important antibiotic is penicillin. Doctors can now also transplant organs such as the heart and the kidneys. 3. The National Health Service
We all know The Simpsons, Mickey Mouse, Elvis Presley, Superman, Indiana Jones, Madonna and South Park because America has exported them to other countries. Nowadays ofcourse spreads American culture the Internet and TV. Pop culture is Heavily influenced by mass media (at least from the early 20th century on) and perpetuated by that culture's vernacular language, this collection of ideas permeates the everyday lives of the society. America's pop culture is widely spread into Europe, but not very much into the East countries, because India has Bollywood and it is as huge as Hollywood. Of course America has stolen some ideas from other countries, like Japan, where there are very many TV shows and comedy shows. Pop culture is meant for the masses. Pop music is a wide variety of styles which are with good rhythm and meaningful lyrics so it must be for big masses. The most movies we have watched are made in Hollywood, so about 90% of them
over new territories, such as Palestine, Iraq, and some territories in Africa. World War I, known also as the First World War, Great War and War to End All Wars was a global military conflict. Over 15 million people were killed. It was one of the deadliest conflicts in human history. The proximate cause was the 28 June 1914 assassination of Franz Ferdinand of Austria by some Bosnian-Serb nationalist. The war soon spread worldwide. As the result, it was the end of four major imperial powers. The Treaty of Versailles which was signed at the end of WWI and it is often said that it eventually lead to the beginning of World War II in 1939. World War II In late 1938, Britain tried to avoid another world war by signing the Munich Pact. The pact gave Germany ,,permission" to invade Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia. In March 1939,
The United States of America. History. For thousands of years America was unknown to Europe. There lived only the native people, who had come from Siberia many thousand years ago by a land bridge. They had spread over the country, varying enormously from nomadic food gatherers to fishing societies. Then the Vikings visited Canada around AD 1000, but they did not stay. In 1492 Christopher Columbus discovered America while trying to reach India. He named the native people Indians, because he though he had reached India. He didn't stay either and in the sixteenth century the first Europeans to settle in America were the Spanish, the English and the French.

climate. Between one and two million years ago one of these changes took place the great Ice Age began. It grew colder in the Far North. More snow fell in the winter than could melt away in the summer. The snow grew deeper and deeper. It changed to solid ice. As more snow fell, the ice grew thicker. It began to move. Great sheets of moving ice, or glaciers, were formed. The edges of the sheets were pushed outward. At last the ice covered most of what is now Canada. And it spread southward into what is now the United States. The ice was probably a mile deep in places. It moved over hills and valleys, rivers and forests. It moved slowly perhaps only a foot a day. Millions of plants were buried by the ice. Many animals moved south. Among the animals able to stand the cold near the edge of the ice were woolly mammoths, woolly rhinoceroses, and caribou. For thousands of years the ice moved southward. But at last the summers grew

The area today lies in the very heart of the historical Mulgimaa the home of hills, deep valleys and lakes brought together by a beauty spot Halliste primeval valley. According to several folk tales, it is also in these valleys, woods and bogs that Old Nick found refuge.The great variety displayed in the nature is also reflected in the local cultural heritage. At the beginning of the 19th century growing linen spread and became the basis of the legendary wealth of Mulgi farms. The ancient barn-dwellings and decaying manor houses are the mute witnesses of those times. The riches and cultural heritage of Mulgimaa owe to the diligence and tenacity of the local people. Village handicraftsmen and masters have always been honoured. Mulgikapsad (stewed sauerkraut with barley groats), Estonian cheesecakes and kama (a roasted meal-mixture) have not lost their popularity.
being sold well into the 20th century. • A novel milking tube illustrated in the Scientific American in 1875, used a slide valve at the bottom of each catheter to close off the opening. • Several U.S. patents were granted for milking tubes joined by flexible rubber tubing to direct the milk to pail. • The extensive tubing increased the problem of contamination already present with the use of catheters. • . • Catheter milking was blamed for various problems, such as spread of disease, weakened sphincter muscles causing continuous dribbling, and injury to the teats. • At this point, The American Agriculturist began to accept advertisements for milkers, although, very few were printed. Their expressed opinion was that the milkers were of little value, but, did no apparent harm to the cows. Variety • The great variety and number of early milking machines can be categorized into two groups,
before or after them Consonants that are produced with some restriction or closure in the vocal tract that the air flow is obstructed – consonants require some vowels around them To classify vowels, fixate: The height of the tongue – close, close-mid, open-mid, open What part of the tongue is involved – front, middle, back – and is it up, down or neutral in the mouth The position of the lips – neutral, rounded, spread Classification of vowels: Close vowels – tongue is near the hard palate - i, e, ᴂ Open vowel – tongue is low and there’s room between the tongue and hard palate - ɑ, ᴂ Back vowel – back of the tongue is in highest point - ᴜ, ᴧ Front vowel – front of the tongue is raised – i, e Vowels of English: Short vowels (6) Long vowels (5) e - bet, men, yes (e)
Air pollution Every day, the average person inhales about 20,000 liters of air. Every time we breathe, we risk inhaling dangerous chemicals that have found their way into the air. Air pollution includes all contaminants found in the atmosphere. These dangerous substances can be either in the form of gases or particles. Air pollution can be found both outdoors and indoors. Pollutants can be trapped inside buildings, causing indoor pollution that lasts for a long time. The sources of air pollution are both natural and human-based. As one might expect, humans have been producing increasing amounts of pollution as time has progressed, and they now account for the majority of pollutants released into the air. Air pollution has been a problem throughout history. Even in Ancient Romepeople complained about smoke put into the atmosphere. The effects of air pollution are diverse and numerous. Air...
Conditions of the productive animals in farms. The inescapable fact is that the conditions in big farms, especially in factory farms, are unacceptably bad. Recent proof of that was the Põima farm case in Estonia were 260 cows are starving. Animals are wet because of their own excrements, some spots on their body are furless, their bones poke out from their skin and they can hardly stand up. What is more, they do not have food or litter, so they lie on cold cemented floor that is covered with dung. This problem is not actual only in Estonia.Also the reality of Finnish factory farming was recently revealed. Producers arguments as there are severe problems related to intensive farming abroad and animals in Finland are treated properly, were more than doubt filling. That is why there was conducted an inquiry to investigate the real conditions in Finnish farms. During the investigation 21 Finnish broiler farms, 6...
preceded the attempted test early on 26 April. By the time that the operator moved to shut down the reactor, the reactor was in an extremely unstable condition. The interaction of very hot fuel with the cooling water led to rapid steam production and an increase in pressure. The overpressure caused the cover plate of the reactor to become partially detached, rupturing the fuel channels and jamming all the control rods, which by that time were only halfway down. Intense steam generation then spread throughout the whole core causing a steam explosion and releasing fallout to the atmosphere. The second explosion threw out fragments from the fuel channels and hot graphite. The graphite and fuel started a number of fires, causing the main release of radioactivity into the environment. From the second to tenth day after the accident, some 5000 tonnes of boron, dolomite, sand, clay and lead were dropped on to the burning core by helicopter
massive campaigns to promote anger against the Jews. His theory was that if you tell a lie that`s big enough and repeat it, people will eventually believe it. (McGrath, 2013). Many think this kind of situation could not be possible today as information can flow much freely now. People can instantly communicate around the globe and no nation is so isolated and locked in as the situation was 70 years ago. People had no way to spread the word themselves and information was coming only one-directionally from the controlled press. The media was used to deceive the population and people were made to believe what was politically needed. It seems the times have changed, people are free of propaganda and modern communication methods could easily see through such scams. The population thinks that with such a high number and variety of different international media publications it would be impossible to deceive the public.
Andmeedastuseks kasutatakse laiaribalisi mürataolisi signaale (Spread Spectrum). Kasutusel on samuti keerukad kanalikoodid, millega moduleeritakse müra. Selline meetod võimaldab töötada üheaegselt ühes ja samas sagedusdiapasoonis üksteist mõjutamata paljudel analoogilistel seadmetel. Arvutitesse lisatavad raadiokaardid on kas ISA, MCA või PCMCIA siinidele. Neil on paigutatud üks ja seesama firma "Motorola" saatja- vastuvõtja 2,4 GHz diapasoonis. Kasutatav modulatsioonitehnoloogia on Spread Spectrum laiaribaline mürataoline signaal ja raadiokaardi WaveLAN või juurdepääsupunkti WavePoint II konfigureerimisel viiakse nende mällu kood, mida kasutab signaali moduleerimise algoritm. Raadioeetris näevad seda seadet vaid need seadmed, mis kasutavad sama koodi. Võrgud, mis töötavad erinevaid koode kasutades, võivad töötada samas tsoonis ühes ja samas sagedusdiapasoonis, segamata seejuures üksteist. Kasutatav sagedusdiapasoon (2,4 GHz) on küllalt häirekindel

arches, hemispherical domes, niches and aedicules replaced the more complex proportional systems and irregular profiles of medieval buildings. This style quickly spread to other Italian cities and then to France, Germany, England, Russia and elsewhere. In the 16th century, Sebastiano Serlio helped codify the classical orders and Palladio's legacy evolved into the long tradition of Palladian architecture. Building off of these influences, the 17th-century architects Inigo Jones and Christopher Wren firmly established classicism in England.
