Billie Holiday elulugu Lapsepõlv Billie Holiday, sünnijärgselt Eleanora Fagan Gough, kaootiline elu algas Baltimores 7.aprillil, 1915. Laulja isa, Clarence Holiday, oli kuueteist aastane jazz-kitarrist ja bändzo mängija, kes hiljem kuulus Fletcher Hendersoni orkestrisse. Ta ei abiellunud kunagi lapse ema Sadie Faganiga ning jättis ta koos tütrega maha. Holiday ema oli samuti väga noor, kolmeteist aastane. Ema oskamatuse või hoolimatuse tõttu jäeti Billie tihti vanaema või sugulaste hoida. Paraku sugulased suhtusid temasse kui teenijasse. Billie saadeti kümneselt katolikku kooli1, sest tüdruk tunnistas üles, et teda on vägistatud. Kahe aasta pärast sai ta sealt välja tänu perekonna sõbrale. Olles kogenud mentaalseid kriise, kolis Billie koos oma emaga 1942. aastal New Jerseysse ja hiljem Brooklyni. Karjääri redel New Yorgis aitas Holiday oma ema majapidamistöödega, hiljem töötas lisa raha teenimiseks bordellis prostituudina. Selle...
Billie Holiday Üheks tuntuimaks dzässilauljaks on Billie Holiday, sünninimega Eleanora Fagan. Ta sündis 7. aprillil 1915. aastal. Täpsed andmed tema elu algusaastate kohta puuduvad, kuid on teada, et ta ema, Sarah Julia Harris, visati kodust välja, kui ta 13aastaselt rasedaks jäi ning ta kolis Philadelphiasse. Seal sündis Eleanora Fagan. Ilma vanemate toetuseta võttis Sarah ühendust oma poolõe Eva Milleriga, kes elas Baltimore's ning kelle ämmast sai järgnevaks kümneks aastaks Eleanora põhihooldaja. Tema ema tegi juhutöid ning reisis nende tõttu ringi, jättes oma tütre Eva Milleri ämma, Martha Milleri hoolde. Juba väga noores eas avastasid Martha Miller ning tema tütar, et Eleanoral on ,,suhtumisprobleeme," mille tekkimises süüdistati ema pidevat äraolekut. Kaheks aastaks abiellus Sarah ,,Sadie" Julia Harris Philip Goughiga ning nad elasid koos Eleanoraga õnnelikku pereelu. Peale koledat lahutusprotsessi jätkas Eleanora e...
My dream vacation I would travel with a person who is similar to me, is in great shape,is interested in science and is durable.We would travel to u.s.a with a private jet and travel to nasa with a car.Then we would travel to space with a space rocket.we would go to a space station which is hovering 360 km above Earth.we would stay in space for one month because it is too expensive to travel between Earth and space.we would get around by flying in the space station because there is zero gravity in space. There can by some curious incidents while we are in space like the sun rising behind the Earth.
I've traveled a little, mostly in Finland, Sweden and Latvia. But for me and my family like to travel and discover new places in Estonia. But my favorite is the holiday trip to Sweden. We traveled by boat to Sweden, where we visited many museums, cathedrals, and the Gallery. Sweden at meeldiub me most architectures, as the country houses are so special. I've been to Sweden twice, and definitely will go back there again. In addition, we usually visit the zoo, museums, and buy hand-made souvenirs. I like to follow the plot in the street, because they behave and dress differently. I was traveling for three days together in Sweden. Many do not like the journey involves shipping in Sweden but I just love it, because in the mornings and in the evenings you can eat buffet. In conclusion, I like to travel and culture in Sweden is a very suitable place.
The school holiday – time for new challenges and adventures Changes and challenges can come in many forms. An holiday is the perfect place to try something new, to push yourself to a new limit and realise your dreams. You can do something that you've never tried before, like going to new places or take part of the adventure games. You can go to the gym or run every day 5 km. I like to go hiking in the woods or just take a daytrip to a city where I have never been before. The other possibility is to go for a mental challenge, like learning new language, or reading an interesting book. It is good challenge to take a science or philosophy book, something that is not so easy to read so you can be proud of yourself after finishing it. It is also possible to learn new skills such as cooking or dancing or making yourself a short film or learn a new computer program. Some people find yourself a job for a holiday and earn money. Sometimes all ...
kool aasta Billie Holiday nimi klass Sisukord 2 Sissejuhatus Billie Holiday oli üks kuulsamaid jazzmuusika naissoost tähti, kelle lühike elu sisaldas mitut abielu, kõrgelennulist karjääri ja muud, mis käis kuulsuse juurde, esile tõstetuna narkootikume. 3 Varajane elu Billie Holiday, sünnijärgselt Eleanora Fagan, sündis Philadelphias, Pennsylvanias USAs 7. aprillil, 1915. aastal. Tema ema oli pärast kaheteistaastaselt rasedaks jäämist kodust Baltimore'ist pagendatud ning sinna kolinud. Nad olid mustanahalised ja vaesed, kuid üks hetk, kui emake sattus hea tööots, kogus ta nii palju raha, et nad said endile 900$ eest endale maja osta ning pidid sealtmaalt `elama kui leedid'. 1926 saadeti ta The House of the Good Shepherd'isse, mis oli katoliku institutsioon, pärast seda, kui naaber, Mr Dick, ta enda juurde viis, öeldes, et ta ema ootab teda seal, tegelikult aga ööhakul vägistas tüdruku. ...

Dear Sir/Madam I'm writing to ask for more information about the 'Swedish Dream' holiday which i saw on the internet. Me and my friends are very interested in Sweden and would like to go on this holiday but we would like to ask some more things about the trip. Firstly, i would like to get some more information about the hotels and the cities we are going to visit. I was also wondering if there's going to be a tour guide to talk about the history of Sweden. Could you tell me more about these things? Secondly, I am a little bit worried about my health. Could you send me information about the diseases and health risks in this country, just in case. And i was also wondering if the health insurance is included? I would also like to know if pets are allowed in the hotels as my friend is having dog allergy.

The Most Exciting Holiday of My Life About a year ago I went to Spain to spend a week of my summer holiday there. I was there with my family and with aunt and her husband. We were in a nice hotel near the beach. The second day I wanted to go shopping in the city but my parents disagreed. They suggested that we should go sightseeing. At last we found that we could go walk in the beach where also were many shops. But it was miles away, so we had to rent a car. We could rent a car from our hotel's reception. Unfortunately we were told that all cars were hired out. Then my parents suggested to spend the day swimming in a hotel pool, but I didn't feel spending my day like this. We found a place to hire cars near the hotel. The only available car was Citroën C1. This was really small, but our only choice. We fitted ourselves very uncomfortably in this little car and drove to that ci...

Souvenirs de vacances J'adore partir en vacances. J'aime les vacances actives à la plage, parce qu'il y a le soleil, le calme et la mer. Pendant la journée, on peut se bronzer et jouer au volley sur la plage. Le soir, on peut manger au restaurant et faire un tour de la ville. C'est super. Personnellement je trouve que la meilleure saison pour les vacances est l'été parce que le plus important pour moi c'est d'avoir du beau temps, le soleil et la chaleur. Je préfère me déplacer en avion parce qu'à mon avis pour les longs trajets un avion est plus rapide et confortable que le train. Je préfère passer mes vacances au bord de la mer parce que j'aime la mer et la plage. Généralement je loue un appartement ou une villa et je profite des vacances pour faire du sport, aussi j'aime bien passer du temps avec ma famille. Tous les ans, je pars en vacances avec mes parents à Constanza ; mais cette ...
My summer holidays In my summer holidays I was out a lot. I went camping in Rõuge. We were there three days. We went there in the midday about 12 o' clock. I sunbathed there and then I went swim to the Rõuge Suurjärv. In the evening we grilled the sausages and after that we went to the sauna. In next day we went ride with the speedboat on the lake. In third day I went rollerskating and in the evening we went back to the home. In summer I was in beach a lot. Usually I went to Kubija beach. I sunbathed and swimmed there. In summer I babysat. The baby was ten month old. I went to the Otepää Seikluspark in my summer holidays too.
Holiday time My holiday began from a class trip to Tartu. There we visited the Estonian National Defence College. Afterwards, I took a bus ride to Tallinn, where I spent the rest of my holiday. Due to my brother moving house, I had to help him out with that. The majority of the work involved stacking firewood from one shed to another, whilst sorting it out to dried and raw. During free time, we went shopping into different shopping centres. I left Tallinn on Saturday, so I would have a day to prepare for school.

Morgan Holiday Home Address: My address: 6 February 2014 Beachside Holiday Home Dear Sir or Madam, My family is planning to spend a month in England and we wish to rent a holiday house. I have found the advertisement in the Internet and I am going to ask some questions. First of all I wonder if pets are allowed in the house of family booking?

Dear Meg Thanks a lot for your letter. It was so interesting to hear about English traditions. I wrote about an Estonian holiday. Halloween, or Hallowe'en, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31.Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting "haunted houses" and carving jack-o-lanterns. The term Halloweenis shortened from All-hallow-even, as it is the eve of "All Hallows' Day", which is now also known as All Saints' Day. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is celebrated in several parts of the Western world, most commonly in Ireland, the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the United Kingdom and occasionally in parts of Australia and New Zealand. The symbols are pumpkin, mythical monsters, black cats, scare...
Hi Mürka It been a long time since i last wrote to you, and i have a lot to say. This holiday has been a especially exciting and fun. I`m just sad that this great holiday is going to end with this week. I had a trip to Finland, where a tried a mountain skiing and other really cool stuff. The trip lasted 1 week and we had a lots of fun in this time. Some favourite things that i did in Finland was skiing and I also liked the amusement park. During my next holiday i hope to visit Estonia, because you`ve said a lots of good things about this place. I´ll hope to meet you personally on my next holiday, but there`s couple of months scool till it. I`ll hope you`ll soon write me back and suggest me some good places to visit in Estonia. Yours Hainz
Dear Thailand Getaway representative I am writing to you regarding my recent holiday with you and I have some problems in this regard. The holiday you advertised included snorkelling, but it turned out that you did not have the necessary equipment that I had to buy for myself. Bicycle rental was also part of the holiday package, but unfortunately there were no free bicycles to rent, which made me spend too much on transport. Also, the ride with the elephants did not go as planned, because the queue was long and I had to wait a very long time. I was also very disappointed by the beach, because the beautiful sandy beach you promised turned out to be dirty and very crowded. As this holiday not only caused me inconvenience and frustration, but also caused additional costs, I request you to compensate the costs incurred in the amount of 150 euros. I look forward to receiving your response. Yours faithfully, Mari Mets

Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.The sending of Valentines was a fashion in nineteenth- century Great Britain, and, in 1847, Esther Howland develope...

Turnips and Halloween 10.New elements 11.Druids in Britain 12.Picture Halloween is a holiday in many English speaking countries that is celebrated on the night of October 31st. Children wear costumes and they go to peoples' homes saying "Trick or treat!" to ask for candy, sweets in the United Kingdom, or lollies in Australia, and then people give it to them. This practice originally involved a threat. A threat is when someone says that they will do something bad if they do not get what they want. In this case the threat could be explained as: "Give me a treat or I will play a trick on you." Children today usually do not play tricks if they do not get treats. However, some children still get up to mischief (pranks or things to make fun of people; like putting toilet pa...
8th February, 2015 Dear Sir / Madam, I am writing to enquire about Beachside holiday home as I am planning to go on holiday with my family. I found your advertisement in the Internet which seemed suitable to me, but I need more details. The first thing I would like to know is whether we can take our dog with us, or are there extra conditions? As we usually travel by car and it is said in your advertisement that it is possible to park a car, but I wonder if we have to pay extra for it. I hope you can also let me know about the holiday house which has 2 bedrooms and a kitchen. However, if I want to buy some food, is there a fridge I could use? As the advert states one week costs € 252. Could you also inform me if the price includes bed linen and towels too or I have to bring my own? Finally, I am interested whether you have the Internet access where I can find out more details. I look forward to hearing from you. Your faithfully, Ma...
TOPIC 4 Thanksgiving In the United States, the fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. It is usually a family day celebrated with big dinners. On this day, Americans give thanks for the blessings they have enjoyed during the year The first Thanksgiving was held in Plymouth in the 17th century. The people of Plymouth had come to America from England. In their native land they had been called Puritans, but they called themselves Pilgrims. When the Pilgrims landed in America they were poorly trained to cope with life in the wilderness. One spring morning an Indian came into the little village of Plymouth . Later, he brought The Indian chief, who gave gifts and offered assistance. The Indians taught the Pilgrims how to hunt, fish and grow food. They also taught them, how to use fish for fertilizer in growing corn, pumpkin and beans. The Pilgrims had a good harvest. Governor William Bradford issued a proclamation establishin...

COOL JAZZ Tallinna Tehnikagümnaasium Tallinn 2015 Sissejuhatus Cool jazz kujunes välja neljakümnendate aastate lõpus. See tekkis küll bebopist, kuid oli vastupidine selle lärmakusele oma tagasihoitud tunnete ja kammerliku väljenduslaadiga. See avaldus kõigepealt kõlalises küljes: puhkpillide kõrge registri asemel eelistati keskmist, mahedamat, taotledes mitte säravat, vaid tuhmi kõla. Seda süvendas veelgi vähese vibraato kasutamine. Eelistati pille, mis juba loomult on pehmetoonilised: baritonsaksofon, metsasarv, flööt (madalas registris) ja vibrafon, mille vibraatormehhanism reguleeriti aeglasele režiimile. Loobuti ka hoogsast edasirühkivast rütmist, ideaaliks sai hoopis tagasihoitud, põhirütmist justkui mahajääv pulss. Seda rütmikäsitlust süvendas veelgi kaheksandiknootide käikudes teise kaheksandiku rõhutamine. Miles Davis Miles Dewey Davi...
Maarja Mägi 11B Christmas celebrations in Estonia In Estonia, Christmas time is considered to be the most important time of the year. In recent times, Christmases have grown to be more a commercial holiday. What is more, Estonian Christmas celebrations have been changed due to German cultural influences. Christmases in Estonia on the whole have two meanings: first one is to celebrate the birth of the Christ and secondly it marks the whole period of mid-winter festivities. In Estonia's folk tradition, Christmas (in Estonian "jõulud" is of ancient Scandinavian origin and has no connection with Christianity) was a time of year to celebrate the shortest day and longest night. At the same time, Christmas was the culmination of the late autumn celebrations. Christmas Eve and Christmas Night were the most sacred times of the season. Nowadays, Christmases ...
Advantages and disadvantages of taking a gap year Many students take a gap year before going to university after graduating from high school to have a little longer holiday after being in school for twelve or more years. But, is it the best choice? What good or bad could that do? For sure one year makes a difference, it can make people lazier, but it can also give time to think about his/her future plans. There can be many reasons for a gap year: money, people go to work or some people go to the army for not taking a year for the army during studies in the university or just being tired of school. I think that a gap year is almost the only option for a young person to have a little rest, to enjoy young life, because life never becomes easier and the next chance to stretch out could be when we reach our pension time. To go on a bit longer holiday abroard with best friends is for sure expensive, but I think that ...

THAILAND GETAWAY 12/01/2008 Dear Sirs I have just returned from a holiday in Thailand Getaway. I am writing to express my annoyance about a number of points. First of all, the beaches were dirty and crowded. As a result, I didn't see any clean and free places where for suntanning. I like snorkelling, but you have not snorkelling equipment for all the family. Take a tour by elephant was impossible because queue was too long. Even bikes were out of order. All these points made me very annoyed. I insist on paying back a half of the sum I paid for the holiday. Yours faithfully M. Mets (Mr) words (109)

Riho Kirsipuu Group nr 2 20.11.2015 Formal Letter Dear Sir or Madam, I just returned from my holiday, which was not what we were looking for. There were some problems I want to talk about, which was not mention in brochure. Firstly, when we arrived at the airport, there were not any coach waiting for us but brochure said that transfer was included. Because of that we had to take a taxi and it was very expensive. What is more, the beach was far from hotel which was unpleasant surprise. In addition, entire resort was crowded and very noisy but travel agent described it as quiet and peaceful area. Last but not least, our hotel room was tiny and not comfortable for three people to live in, it was dirty also. Furthermore, towels were dirty during our two weeks holiday. In conclusion, I think the travel agent should offer som...

road signs All speed limit signs in the Republic changed to the metric system in 2005. Some direction signs still show distance in miles so tourists often mix them up. There are usually about 10 signs or more on one post , and its really hard to see them when driving, so tourists disturb traffic quite often when slowing down to read the signs All the signs are multilingual ,due to high percentage of English speakers Forests Ireland has only about 8 % of his whole land covered with forests. Centuries ago people cut the forests and didn't think about the future so nowadays there is mostly peat ( turvas) which Ireland uses to produce energy. Economy Ireland had a big economic boom in the late 20'th century, but now the Republic of Ireland is ranked the second wealthiest per capita country in the European Union. Education in Ireland is free at all levels, including college. The construction sector, which is inherently cyclical in nature, ...
Traditions Australia doesn't have many traditions. Attempts to get Halloween off the ground have stalled due to one too many homeowners telling little kids to get off their property or they will see a scary sight. Australia celebrates many of the same holidays as do people of the Western world, such as Easter and Christmas. However, Australians also celebrate some holidays unique to their country and culture. Australia Day Australia Day, 26 January, is the anniversary of the arrival of the First Fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain, and the raising of the Union Jack at Sydney Cove by its commander Captain Arthur Phillip, in 1788. On Australia Day, over half of the nation's population of 21 million attend either an organised community event, or get together with family and friends with the intention of celebrating our national day. It is celebrated with parties, picnics, and f...

A Storm at Sea Kelin Kuznetsova 8.B It was a cloudy afternoon, when Jason, Paul and Tony were on a sailing holiday last summer. It all took place at a calm sea. Jason was standing on the deck of the boat when he saw black clouds gathering in the sky. He realized that the storm is not far from them. A minute later they found themselves in the middle of the storm. Huge waves were crashing and the boat was rocking from side to side as thunder rolled across the sky. They were extremely scared. They understanded that they were in huge danger, so Tony radioed for help. Just then a bolt of lightning struck the boat and the mast burst into flames. Tony said ,,We can't save the boat, but we can save our lives". They jumped into the water and swam to the life raft. As they climbed into the life raft they saw the boat sink slowly. When the men heard the sound of a boat, th...

Tartu Located in the South of Estonia, Tartu is one of Estonia's most beautiful cities. I chose to write about Tartu, because with its beautiful green parks and spectacular culture, it's the perfect holiday destination. There are many really beautiful buildings that have been restored after World War II. Most of them are in the heart of the city. There's also a place called the Dome Hill. It's a hill where you can see various monuments and there are also the ruins of the Dome Church. Currently, the building is occupied by a history museum and the visitors can use an observation platform on the roof and enjoy a picturesque view of the city. By the Dome Hill there's the main building of the University of Tartu. It's very big and beautiful. There are several museums, but also some theatres and cinemas. Tartu has many cafés in the centre of the city, for example café Pier...
