... lakes of more than 100 square miles in area and tens of thousands of smaller ones. The largest lake, Saimaa, in the southeast, covers about 1,700 square miles. There are many other large lakes near it, including Päijänne and Pielinen, while Oulu is near Kajaani in central , and Inari is in the extreme north. Away from coastal regions, many of 's rivers flow into the lakes, which are generally shallow--only three lakes are deeper than about 300 feet. Saimaa itself drains into the much larger Lake Ladoga in Russian territory via the Vuoksi (Vuoksa) River. Drainage from 's eastern uplands is through the lake system of Russian Karelia to the White Sea.

Web Site Promotion
... of sending out emails at random or premeditated if you have the time. The emails need to contain a short paragraph describing a little about your web site and what it has to offer to those who visit the web site. Remember that with this method it is wise to not be too wordy otherwise this process can develop to be very time consuming and irritating to the sender and the receiver of the email. However it is possible to email well over 10,000 emails in just under an hour. This process can only be done if everything has been thought out thoroughly and ready to go before the process has even begun. Another possible advantage to this method is that the recip ...

Clipper Ships
... a
heavy and lofty square rig.
The origin of the clipper is debatable. Some believe that it was
descended from the French frigate of the late 1700's. Other's believe that
it originated from the early Baltimore clipper's. It is highly probable
that it was designed by many ship builders who combined their experience.
The first American clippers like the Rainbow and the Sea Witch, were
built in New York for tea trades to China. A few years later, the
California Gold Rush was the major concern of such ships. One of the
fastest clipper was the Flying Cloud, which, on her maiden voyage, was the
first ship to sail from New York, around the Cape Horn, and to San ...

The Motionless Arrow: Aristotle's Thoughts On Zeno's Arror Argument
... false, the argument is not sound, and therefore,
Zeno's argument leaves much to be said.
Deciphering from what we know of the argument by what Aristotle tells us
in Chapter 9, the premises are sketched out:
1. Everything is at rest when at a place equal to it;
2. The Flying arrow is at rest when at a place equal to it;
3. Time is composed of indivisible nows (instants).
4. Everything that changes place is doing so in the now.
5. Conclusion: The flying arrow doesn't move.
According to Zeno, time is composed of many indivisible nows, or instants.
Aristotle disagrees, stating in line 210 that no magnitude, including ti ...

Human Perception: An Intimate Look Into The Most Intriguing Aspect Of Modern Psychology
... other animals as well, whether through instinct
or with conscious thought. Let us take this a step farther. When a bee looks at
a flower that is meant for feeding from, they do not only notice the colors the
human mind sees. The bee sees a yellow "run-way" directly into the core of the
flower, guiding it into the source of nectar. This brings us to the question-
"is what we see real, or is what we see our own reality?". What the human mind
sees is only three dimensions. Since Albert Einstein first conjured the
scientific possibility of a fourth dimension, human beings have longed to see it.
Many people assume that it does not exist simply because they cannot see ...

The Increasing Application Of Scientific Management Principles Of Work Organisations To Services Is, Despite Its Limitations, Inevitable And Irreversible
... Hales (1994).
Taylor (1856-1915) has been referred to as the father of Scientific Management.
He believed that management, not labour, was the cause of and potential solution
to problems in the industry. Taylor concluded that workers systematically ‘
soldiered' because they believed that faster work would put them out of a job
and because hourly or daily wages destroyed individual incentive. Taylor
believed that in order to discourage, and indeed halt, this ‘soldiering' a ‘
mental revolution' was required. He believed this could be achieved via four
vital principles: (1) the development of the best work method, via systematic
observation, measurement and analys ...

The Need For Reason
... closed up shop when he couldn't nail Clinton on Whitewater. If Clinton were reasonable, he wouldn't keep whipping it out like it was the only lighter in a crackhouse. If the Republicans were reasonable, they wouldn't have been so bloodthirsty about finally catching him with his pants down. And finally if the Democrats were reasonable, he would have been shunned like an Amish guy with a naked lady tattoo and extreme piercings'. Lastly, and most importantly, if Hillary were reasonable, she would've long ago said, "My lawyers will be in touch, Captain Hard-On."
Wow don't even get me started on James Carville, this guy looks like a Muppet that was accidentally wash ...

The Trip To The New England Co
... the coast of Jamestown. I figured that by the time we reached at the dock that we would be in for the treat of fresh food. The water on board is yellow and it stinks. The food is growing this so called hair. It was nasty to eat but we had nothing else. It was past midnight and I cant sleep due to the crowded floors. I hear a voice, "I heard we've reached the point." I began to get excited and over whelmed. I finally could eat something fresh. I ran up to the deck not knowing that the captain wasn't in his cabin. He looked up to the guy on the Crow's nest. He said, "Sir I see land."
I never think it would happen. I made it. The sun was beginning to come out and l ...

Procrastination And Regrets
... students enjoy partying much more than studying. These procrastinators frantically attempt to cram information into their head on test day, which usually leaves them unsure about the content of the test and disappointed with their grade. In the end, they usually all realize that it would have been easier if they would have started preparing sooner.
Another thing that young adults as well as parents tend to procrastinate on is filling out forms. Young adults are stubborn about filling out college applications. Procrastinating this, however, may ruin their chances of getting accepted to the college of their choice. Many parents put off filling out tax forms and ...

Men And Women
... and physics homework so I find this pencil sharpener very useful. My mother has deemed the pencil sharpener ugly and keeps it hidden under the coats in the laundry room. Every time I need to use it I have to walk into the laundry room, push all the coats back until I find the sharpener. It is mountedon the wall so there is no excuse for me to remove it from there and place it in a more visible (yet accessible) location. As a temporary fix to this problem, I simply sharpen about ten pencils all up front.
A more expensive item is also being under utilized because it doesn't match the ambiance of the house. This item is the Dolby Surround Sound home theater s ...
