Technology has dramatically changed leisure and hobbies Family drives with a car, husband turns the car looking at the GPS directions to home. Wife shares pictures to Instagram with her iPhone and in the backseat girl is playing with her iPad and boy reads on his kindle. This is normal nowadays, because technolgy has been improved for example people can now communicate with each other much faster. It is great, although it can also harm people. Technology is serious responsibility- if people do not use an invention carefully, then it would end up the wrong way. The word „Leisure“ meaning changes in every 10 to 20 years. 50 years ago spare time was usually considered as that part of a day when people took a nap or children played with each other. Nowadays technological tools are killing off leisure time, especially for younger workers and students, who are working longer hours, taking fewer and shorter vacations but still bringing their...

Before getting these two kids, me and my husband used to live in a flat in the centre of the city. But when I get pregnant for the first time, we decided to move in a house in Nõmme.

When they grew up, went to school and sometimes got bad...

Viieteistkümne aastapärast on mul kolm imearmsat last. Selleks ajaks olen ma omandanud põhi-, kesk- ja kõrghariduse. Kui mu lapsed on väiksed, olen ma lastega kodus ning hoolitsen nende eest. Kuid kui nad juba koolis käima hakkavad, siis ma lähen tööle. Ma hakkan tööle ühes maailma suurimas ajalehes ajakirjanikuna. Põhitööna kirjutan ma "USA Today"-le, "The Wall Street Journal" ja "The New York Times"-ile. Kuid mõnikord rikastan ma ka Eesti ajakirjandust oma loometööga.

WHAT IS MARRIAGE ??? ( Thoughts pouring down in ones mind ) 1. Marriage is not a word. It's a sentence (a life sentence). 2. Marriage is love. Love is blind. Therefore marriage is an institution for the blinds. 3. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor's Degree and the woman gets her masters. 4. Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering. 5. Married life is full of excitement and frustration: In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the NEIGHBOR listens. 6. Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends. You order what you want, and when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that instead. 7. There was this man who muttered a few words in the church and found himself married. A year later he muttered something in his...
1. Marie-Antoinette 2. She was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1755 She was the 15th child of Holy Roman Empress Maria Theresa and Emperor Francis I. Marie Antoinette married the future French king Louis XVI when she was just 15 years old. The young couple soon came to symbolize all of the excesses of the reviled French monarchy, and Marie Antoinette herself became the target of a great deal of vicious gossip. 3. She was hated for many things like: beauty, spending money, The Diamond Necklace incident People called her "L'Autrichienne" She was hated for her beauty and because of her eccentric personality, also because she was born in Austria. French people started to call her "L'Autrichienne" (which literally means the Austrian (woman), but also suggests the French word "chienne", meaning bitch) Also France financial crisis was blamed on her lavish spending. It is known that she lived golden life: she bought tons of clothes, diamo...
Character sketch Tom Buchanan The Great Gatsby F. Scott Fizgerald Thomas ,,Tom" Buchanan is a wealthy husband of Daisy Buchanan. They live on East Egg and are both connected to Nick Carraway, the novel's narrator. Daisy is Nick's cousin and Tom was once a member of his social club at Yale. Tom was a football player, enjoys polo and is a racist. Nick describes Tom's appearance quite well: ,,He was a sturdy straw-haired man of thirty with a rather hard mouth and a supercilious manner. Two shining arrogant eyes had established dominance over his face and gave him the appearance of always leaning aggressively forward. Not even the effeminate swank of his riding clothes could hide the enormous power of that body -- he seemed to fill those glistening boots until he strained the top lacing, and you could see a great pack of muscle shifting when his shoulder moved ...
Emma The Origins Emma is a given female name. It is derived from the Germanic word ermen meaning whole or universal, and was originally a short form of Germanic names that began with ermen.

After the Norman conquest this name became common in England. It was revived in the 18th century, perhaps in part due to Matthew Prior's poem 'Henry and Emma'. It was also used by Jane Austen for the central character, the matchmaker Emma Woodhouse, in her novel 'Emma'. Popularity Name Emma has been among the top names given to baby girls in the United States, England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Ireland, France,Sweden, Belgium, Canada, Australia, Norway, New Zealand, Hungary, Finland, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sp...

1. Kas tsarter on prahileping või kaupade mereveo leping? Miks? Millal? Kõiki tsartereid on õiguslikult korrektne nimetada prahilepinguteks. Tsarteri kasutamine mereveoveolepinguna on ainult üks kasutusala. Teine, mitte vähema tähtsusega tsarteri kasutusala on ajaprahing ehk tähtajalise prahtimise leping. Ühed teadlased ja spetsialistid nimetavad tsarterit kauba mereveolepinguks, teised prahtimis(prahi)lepinguks. Ja mõlematel on õigus, erinevus on aga selles, et esimene seisukoht on oma sisult kitsam ja kehtib ainult teatud tingimustes, teine on aga tunduvalt laiem. 2. Milliste laevade töökorralduse vormi puhul kasutatakse tsarterit kui mereveolepingut? Tsarterid kaupade veoks/Reisitsarter (Voyage-Charter) on sisuliselt kaupade mereveolepinguks.

Professor Kavanaugh 1 December 2011 Word Count: 968 Essay Topic #7: Ibsen's A Doll House A doll house is a visually appealing home for an equally perfect doll to live in. In Ibsen's "A Doll House" the values of society were related only to the visual appearance of one's home and family. Social acceptance dictated Torvald and Nora's lives, including their relationship. Torvald can be assumed as not only the owner of this "doll house" but of Nora, his "doll", as well. Their marriage had the constant pressures of the image of perfection, and it is this tension that corrupts their relationship. It also forces Nora to realize the self-centered nature of her husband. Nora ultimately changes her resemblance of Torvald's "doll" and becomes an independent and confrontational woman, creating a great contrast with the title of this play. The standards on social ...
Chekov Lady and the Lapdog Reid about Chekov: The characters in Chekhov's plays are never fully "known" as a writer, he seems to delight in maintaining a sense of indeterminacy, and unknowability, about them. The bare facts are always laughably inadequate to the complexity of "real" people. Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born on 29 January (New Style), 1860, in Taganrog, a small port on the Sea of Azov, in southern Russia. As the son of a grocer and grandson of a serf, Chekhov was a first-generation intellectual. His modest background and upbringing are crucial to his development as a writer. Chekhov always felt that he missed out on childhood. It was a very hard lifeand it may have contributed to his poor health: he succumbed later on to the"family disease", tuberculosis, which led to his early death at the age of 44.His mother was a quiet, gentle soul who was full of stories of her early life. In later years, Chekhov would say that "w...
