Ghost story A family of four moved to a little old cottage. One night, when they went to bed they heard music coming from the attic, but when they got to the attic, there was nothing but the wind howling. They did not pay much attention to it because they thought it was just wind. A few weeks later, when they arrived home around 1 pm and found their dog, who almost never barked, barking and acting very strange. He was barking at their garage. The family at first thought it was a cat or some other small animal; the father turned his attention to the garage. The whole family then went to see what was going on, when they opened the old squeaking garage door; they saw an old lady who was sitting in a chair rocking back and forth very slowly. The father went to the car and directed the cars headlights towards the lady, they saw nothing, when he turned the lights out again, and the lady appeared. He did it again, same thing happened.

IGOR STRAVINSKI (1882-1971) Väheseid, kes omam 3 riigi kodakondsust: Vene, US, Pr.

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...
Analysis of Major Characters Frederic Henry - In the sections of the novel in which he describes his experience in the war, Henry portrays himself as a man of duty. He attaches to this understanding of himself no sense of honor, nor does he expect any praise for his service. Even after he has been severely wounded, he discourages Rinaldi from pursuing medals of distinction for him. Time and again, through conversations with men like the priest, Ettore Moretti, and Gino, Henry distances himself from such abstract notions as faith, honor, and patriotism. Concepts such as these mean nothing to him beside such concrete facts of war as the names of the cities in which he has fought and the numbers of decimated streets. Against this bleak backdrop, Henry's reaction to Catherine Barkley is rather astonishing. The reader understands why Henry responds to the game that Catherine proposes--why he pledges his love to a woman he barely kn...

Holidays, Festivals, Cultural events TALLINN - If you're looking for entertainment in Estonia this summer, you are really spoiled for choice. Festivals and events dedicated to the consumption of beer are a lot of fun, but if you want to get the true feel of the country, you need something a little more ethnic. Like a town fair. Just as July becomes August, the seaside town of Haapsalu will host a grand spectacle of rural Estonian entertainment. The White Lady Days is a summer celebration filled with amusement for all the family. Held in and around the remains of the Teutonic-knights-era castles, the fair combines enchanting medieval legends with modern countryside charm to create a comprehensive experience of Estonia beyond the big cities. But the legend of the White Lady of Haapsalu, which is at the heart of the festival, is perhaps the most famous tall tale of the many that are so abundant in Estonia's folklore. It is the story of...
Ma ei saa aru, kuidas sa ei saa aru, ei ma ei saa aru. Everything happens for a reason. See kes ei tea midagi ja teab et ei tea midagi, teab rohkem kui see, kes ei tea midagi ega tea, et ei tea midagi. Mõtetute mõtete mõtlemine mõtetutele mõtetele on mõtetu ajaraiskamine mõtetute mõtete mõtlemisele. Valetaja valetas valetajale, et valede valede valetamine on vale. Vahetevahel on vahede vaheliste vahede vahedel vahed vahel. Eksju minu eksju on sinu eksjust eksjum, eksju? Tere august, käes on august, ütles August teisest august. Kui sa unustad meie mäletused, siis unusta ka juba mind. Palun vaikust, ma arenen! Kui sa tundsid end puudutatuna, siis tea, et keegi katsus sind. ...
