Silicon Valley Could you reproduce Silicon Valley elsewhere, or is there something unique about it? It wouldn't be surprising if it were hard to reproduce in other countries, because you couldn't reproduce it in most of the US either. What does it take to make a silicon valley even here? What it takes is the right people. If you could get the right ten thousand people to move from Silicon Valley to Buffalo, Buffalo would become Silicon Valley. That's a striking departure from the past. Up till a couple decades ago, geography was destiny for cities. All great cities were located on waterways, because cities made money by trade, and water was the only economical way to ship. Now you could make a great city anywhere, if you could get the right people to move there. So the question of how to make a silicon valley becomes: who are the right people,...

Whitney (4,540 m) in the Sierra Nevada. The Cordilleras are still an active region of the Earth. There are a number of active volcanoes there and often earthquakes shake the land. Hot springs and geysers are numerous in Yellowstone. Between the mountains there are many canyons. The most famous of them is probably the Grand Canyon. The highest peak in America is Mt. McKinley with its 6194m. The lowest point is the Death Valley - 86m. Between the mountains are the central lowlands called the prairie and eastern lowlands called the Mississippi valley. One of the most famous mountains in the USA is Mount Rushmore in South Dakota because of the faces of presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt that have been cut in the rock. Lakes and rivers The Mississippi is the major river of North America and the United States. It flows...
Sellega ei kaubelda erinevalt kõrgemate kivisöe astmete kütustega. See on sageli põletatud elektrijaamades, mis on püstitatud kaevanduste lähedusse, nagu näiteks Austraalia Latrobe orus. CO2 emissioon pruunsöel töötavatel jaamadel on palju suurem kui näiteks kivisöel põhinevatel elektrijaamadel. Pruunsöe kaevandamine Pruunsütt kaevandatakse veel Lõuna-Aafrikas, Indias ja Venamaal. Suurim pruunsöe tootja on Latrobe Valley Austraalias. Selle toodang moodustab 20% kogu maailma pruunsöest ning 98.5% Austraalias kaevandatavast pruunsöest. Pruunsöe kasutamine Pruunsütt kasutatakse keemiatööstuse toorainena ning kasutatakse elektrijaamades. Kuna see kütus sisaldab hulganisti orgaanilisi aineid ning süsinikuprotsent on väiksem kui kivisöel, on selle tuhaprotsent kõrgem ja selle põlemisel eraldub õhku rohkem saasteaineid. Nagu iga fossiilse kütuse kaevandamisel, rikub ka...

Tallinn English College English Sergo Vainumäe 9A TALLINN Report Supervisor: Inge Välja Tallinn 2006 Order of contents: 1.Introduction 2.Toompea 3.Lower Town 4.Kadriorg and Pirita 5.Museums 1. Introduction Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, lies on the Baltic Sea. It is on almost the same latitude east St. Petersburg in Russia, Stockholm in Sweden and Stavanger in Norway, and covers 158 sq km. Tallinn was first marked on a map of the world by the Arab geographer al-Idrisi in 1154, its name then being Kolyvan (probably derived from the name Kalev). In the 13th-century Chronicle of Henricus de Lettis the town was called Lyndanise. Later came Reval (presumably after the old county of Rävala), the name used by the Germans who ruled the country for seven centuries. Russians then modified Reval...
In the year 2006, over 24,000 people attended the concerts, but many more just came to take part in the festivities. As such, it is the largest annual music festival in Estonia, and one of the largest folk music festivals in Europe. Lake Viljandi Viljandi is an ancient city situated on a hill by a beautiful lake. The lake glittering in the bottom of the valley is popular with holiday-makers, fishermen and people who enjoy recreational sports. A hiking path runs around the lake and it can be used for recreational sports all year round. Since the year 1928, a run around Lake Viljandi has taken place on the first day of May every year. Tennis courts, cafes, playgrounds, diving towers, boat rental and catamaran trips are available by the lake...
European explorers and trappers brought European diseases that spread rapidly through native trade routes and decimated the Aboriginal population. For much of the 17th century, the English and French colonies in North America were able to develop in relative isolation from each other. French colonists extensively settled the St. Lawrence River valley , while English colonists largely settled in the Thirteen Colonies to the south. However, as competition for territory, naval bases, furs and fish escalated, several wars broke out between the French, English and Native tribes. 13. Political system, symbols Canada is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada as head of state, and a parliamentary democracy with a federal system of parliamentary government and strong democratic traditions. Formally considered a constitutional...

Aastal 1954 täisudtas Texas Instruments transistorit kasutades silikoni germaaniumi asemel. Silikoni kasutamine oli täiustus sellepärast, et silikon kannatas 8 suuremaid temperatuure kui germaanium. Seda ala Californias kus asus Texas Instruments tuntakse siiamaani kui Silicon Valley (Silikoni Org) sest paljud arvuteid tootvaid firmad asuvad seal. Kasutades transistoreid elektronlampide asemel aitas tootjatel toota plaju töökindlamaid ja odavamaid arvuteid. Arvuti väiksem kombinatsioon, parem töökidlus ja madalam hind tegi teise generatsiooni arvutid populaarseks ostjatele. Aastal 1956 ehitasid Belli Laboratooriumid transistoreid kasutades arvuti nimega Leprechaun. Pärast alustasid oma transistorite ehitamist IBM, Philco, GE ja RCA....
Geology and geomorphology ! The geology of Scotland is unusually varied for a country of its size, with a large number of differing geological features. There are three main geographical subdivisions: the Highlands and Islands is a diverse area which lies to the north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault; the Central Lowlands is a rift valley mainly comprising Paleozoic formations; and the Southern Uplands, which lie south of a second fault line, are largely composed of Silurian deposits. The existing bedrock includes very ancient Archean gneiss, metamorphic beds interspersed with granite intrusions created during the Caledonian mountain building period (the Caledonian orogeny), commercially important coal, oil and iron bearing carboniferous deposits and the remains of substantial tertiary volcanoes....
Its economy is still growing, but several other important countries are growing even faster at the present time. There is a widespread belief, both in America and in other countries, that the United States is in economic decline. Agriculture is very wide-spread, above all in the prairie regions, where wheat and other grain crops are grown. Cotton is grown in the Mississippi valley , tobacco in Maryland and Virginia. California is famous for its fruit, and the west for its cattle-farming. Poultry farming is highly developed in the countryside near all big cities. The United States is rich in various metals and minerals. It holds first place in the capitalist world. The Great Lakes and the rivers, especially the Mississippi, are important waterways. For Americans, democracy means more than majority rule. It also means minority rights...
Esmakordselt kanti talimänge üle televisioonis. See häiris kõvasti olümpiatule süütajat Guido Carolit. Tõrvik käes, uisutas ta aukülaliste loozi ette ja valmistus Itaalia presidendile Giovanni Gronchile saluteerima. Ärevusest komistas mees televisiooni- ja mikrofonijuhtmetesse ning kukkus.

They lie south of a second fault line (the Southern Uplands fault) that runs from the Rhinns of Galloway to Dunbar. The geological foundations largely comprise Silurian deposits laid down some 4500 million years ago. The high point of the Southern Uplands is Merrick with an elevation of 843 m (2,766 ft). The Central Lowlands is a rift valley mainly comprising Paleozoic formations. Many of these sediments have economic significance for it is here that the coal and iron bearing rocks that fuelled Scotland's industrial revolution are to be found. This area has also experienced intense volcanism, Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh being the remnant of a once much larger volcano. This area is relatively low-lying, although even here hills such as the Ochils and Campsie Fells are rarely far from view....
