Besplatne elektronske knjige Korisna knjiga portal ima funkciju pretraživača linkova. Naš sistem isključivo indeksira linkove ka drugim sajtovima, tako da se nijedan fajl ne nalazi na našim serverima. Na ovaj sajt je moguće uneti isključivo saržaj tekstualnog tipa, pa se mi stoga, kao i bilo koji drugi pretraživač, ne bavimo pitanjem sadržaja tuđih sajtova. Sva pitanja vezana za sadržaj tih sajtova morate postaviti direktno njima, jer mi ni sa jednima od njih nemamo stalan kontakt i otvorenu saradnju. Korisna knjiga nije odgovorna za tekstove koje unose njeni članovi. Korisna knjiga is in compliance with 17 U.S.C. § 512 and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA").

Interactive ESL | Email Endings There are also other ways to end an email but this depends on the purpose and context of your email. Make sure to use something that will be appropriate for your situation. Don’t use TTYL (Talk to you later) or TGIF (Thank God it's Friday) to your boss or teacher unless you are very very close to them. But sometimes it's nice to end with Happy Holidays if it's around Christmas or New Years time. Good Job! Have a good one! Végig a sárga köves úton Auto Mechanics Hilariously Recreate Renaissance Paintings US-based photographer Freddy Fabris had always wanted to pay homage to the Renaissance masters with his photos in some way, but he wasn’t sure how until he stumbled upon an auto-mechanic shop in the Midwest.

A várost ilyenkor cirka egy hétre teletömik faalapra ácsolt, hatalmas, kartonból gyártott groteszk, szarkasztik-szürreál stílusban készült bábukkal, amik a lehető legkülönfélébb módon gúnyolják ki a társadalmat, a közszereplőket vagy a globalizációt. A skála elég széles: Chaplintől a terhes Hófehérkén át megjelenik Sárközy, a Supermannek öltöztetett Obama, Cristiano Ronaldo és Zapatero is (nyilván én pont nem a legérdekesebbeket találtam meg, de nézzétek el, a rendelkezésre álló órák kevesen voltak, a bábuk meg 700-nál is többen).

Classics - Because what you read matters. October 3, 10:30am and October 5, 6:00pm — New York Public Library for the Performing Arts @ 40 Lincoln Center Plaza This October you'll have two opportunities to show your love for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland if you're already an aficionado, or want to learn what all the fuss is about if you're not. Charlie Lovett, former president of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America (and author of The Bookman's Tale, First Impressions and The Further Adventures of Ebenezer Scrooge), headlines "On A Golden Afternoon" on October 3.
