Civil and public law

Comparing civil and public law we find a lot of differences. The main point is that civil law concerns disputes among citizens, and the public law- between citizens and the state, or one state and another. The main categories of English civil law are: contracts, torts, trusts, probate, family law. And of public law are: crimes, constitutional law, international law.
Criminal, public and civil procedures are different. In English criminal law defendant has to pay a fine or a punishment for his crime. And the standards of proof there are higher then in a civil court. The criminal actions are always started by the state. And the civil actions are usually started by individuals, the proof are lower there, a crime cannot be proven if there are doubts of guilty. The evidences are very necessary and court will weight all of them. In Anglo- American law, the party who brings a criminal action is called prosecution, and in civil action- the plaintiff.
There are many points of contact between criminal and civil law.

Lifelong learning strategy 2

There are a lot of people around the world. They have their own lifes thats why they have their own lifelong learning strategies.
We started our learning when we have born.
Firstly, we tried to find our mothers, fathers, to learn some movements. Secondly, we started to walk, then to speak, to find our individuality. But without help these first steps were impossible.
Of course, then follows other things, which are more and more difficulter then before- going to school, learning how to write, read and others things, which will be important in the future.
In my opinion, the most important thing is to think about the future, then learning will be easier, when you know, that these things are very important.
Secondly, to think about yourself and what you want.
Thirdly, to learn from mistakes and to look back.
I think, that we have to regret for something what we haven't done, not for something we have done.
