Once upon a time there lived a lovely princess with fair skin and blue eyes. She was so fair that she was named Snow White. Her mother died when Snow White was a baby and her father married again.

The New Beginning II Morning came yet there was no happiness on the surface. The young man had no idea what to do next after all, he was one of the Royal Soldiers, not a babysitter. The child on his arms seemed so helpless...so innocent... And then he decided something that a few hours ago he`d never do: he will keep the child and raise it to be a worthy worrior who`d once destroy all of the ishues and free this country from the Demons. And so, the baby still asleep, he left the ruins of what was called a city once and moved towards east, where the Royal Palace was situated. By midday he finally reached the White Wall, where was a secret entrance to the Palace`s main hall. The gate keepers waved sleepily when he passed them. The young man decided not to disturb them so he went on in total silence. Soon he reached the main hall, but his leader, captain Jacques, wasn't there as he had expected. "W...
Her first dream was to be a dancer. Then, one fateful night at the Apollo Theater in 1934, the headlining Edwards Sisters brought down the house with their dancing. Amateur Hour began immediately after, and a 16yearold Ella Fitzgerald stepped on stage, but was too intimidated to dance. Instead, she sang "Judy," silenced the awestruck crowd, and won first prize. It was the beginning of one of the most celebrated careers in music history. Born in Newport News, Virginia in 1917, Ella Fitzgerald moved with her mother to New York after the death of her father. Living in Yonkers, Fitzgerald attended public school, where she sang in the glee club and received her musical education. After her early success at the Apollo, and as a popular performer at a number of other amateur venues, Fitzgerald was invited to join Chick Webb's band. Within a short while she was the star attraction, and had made a number hits including her trademark "Ati...

Georg Gershwin (1898-1937) 1. Lapsepõlv: George Gershwin sündis 26. septembril 1898 Brooklynis, New Yorgis. Tema vanemad olid vene rahvusest juudipäritoluga. Olles immigrantidest vanemate poeg, sai George`ist üks esimesi ameerika heliloojaid, kelle helitööd on tänaseni kasutusel õpetajate ,,tööriistana" näitamaks kõikjal ja kõigile ameerika sisenemist Stravinsky, Chopini, Beethoveni ja Mozarti muusikamaailma. George`il oli kaks venda, Arthur ja Ira, ning õde Francis. Kuigi George on oma perekonnast kõige tuntum, oli ka ta vend Ira küllaltki edukas teksti autor. Täpsemalt- kui poleks olnud Ira huvi muusika vastu, siis poleks ka George`i vanemad koju klaverit soetanud. Ira pidi hakkama klaverit õppima, kuid kohe kui klaver koju toodi, hakkas see kohe George`i huvitama ja suhteliselt ruttu suutis ta mängida kõrva järgi. Hiljem investeerisid vanemad natukene ta k...
THE PRE-RAPHAELITES The PRB was formed in 1848 in London and it was an association of painters, poets, critics, sculptors. It was founded by three Royal Academy students who wanted to brake free from the academic art and return to the moral and descriptive truthfulness that they felt was gone from art. (The Royal Academy of Arts is and institution with a purpose to promote the creation, enjoyment and appreciation of the visual arts through exhibitions, education and debate.). The founders were William Hunt, John Millais, Dante Rossetti. Because of the fact that they were all students they were also very young- the oldest one, Hunt, was 21. They were soon joined by William Rossetti(critic), James Collison(painter), Frederic Stephens (critic), Thomas Woolner(sculptor). The three youthful Pre-Raphaelites deliberately challenged the established view of art, drawing up a manifesto of their intentions and publishi...

London - The City and Beyond The statue of a bronze dragon on Fleet Street is the entrance to the City of London. This is where the Romans founded Londinium almost two thousand years ago. The City covers about 2,6 square km (1 square mile) and is often called the Square Mile. Today, the City of London is one of the world's most important business and financial centres, with over 500 banks. Over 400 000 people work within the Square Mile during weekdays and it is a crowded and noisy place. The Barbican Centre is a very big complex of buildings, towers, garages and walkways. It was built in the 70s and most Londoners don't like the way it looks. It is the largest performing arts centre in Europe and home to two symphony orchestras, and art gallery and the amazing Museum of London. Fleet Street once was a road between the City and Westminster. Then it became the centre of publishing and newspaper business for centuries. The Dail...

The City of London History The City of London occupies one square mile in the middle of the capital. It once made up the entire town of London, surrounded by the wall first built by the Romans. The Roman Londinium grew up on the northern side of the "London Bridge" in the past. Products such as olive oil, wines and fruit were brought by ships from different parts of the Roman Empire and unloaded onto wooden quays along the river. In AD 61 the native Celtic Iceni tribe, led by Queen Boudicca, rose up against The Romans. They burnt Londinium to the ground but Roman armies eventually defeated Boudicca. The city was rebuilt and was gradually surrounded with a wall of stone and brick which lasted for many centuries. During the archeological excavations in 1954 the Roman Temple of Mithras was revealed. It was a pagan temple dedicated to the Persian Sun-god. The Temple was later reconstructed only a short way...

AMBER AND RUSSET - LATE COLOUR CHANGE GENES Copyright 2014, Sarah Hartwell The ancestors of the domestic cat were nondescript black/brown striped tabbies. Over the centuries, mutation produced a wide array of colours based on 2 different pigments. Eumelanin gives the blacks, browns and blues while phaeomelanin gives the reds, fawns and creams. A few other genes give further variations on those colours such silvers, colourpoints and solids/selfs. Mutations continue to occur and unexpected colours also turn up due to inbreeding where recessive genes, hidden for generations, start showing up. AMBER AND LIGHT AMBER During the 1990s, some purebred Norwegian Forest Cats in Sweden produced chocolate/lilac and cinnamon/fawn offspring. However, those colours are not found in the purebred Norwegian Forest Cat gene pool. Had the gene pool become polluted by someone, perhaps generations ago, breeding their Norwegian Forest Cat to another breed? ...

Eesti maaülikool Loomakasvatusinstituut Kursusetöö veisekasvatuses Lihatõud Koostaja: Kaja Tuisk Juhendaja: Heli Kiiman Tartu 2012 Sisukord 2 Sissejuhatus Sõna ,,cattle" tuleb vanast prantsuse sõnast, mis tähendab omamist. Arvatakse, et esimesed veise kodustamised olid Euroopas ja Aasias kiviajal. Tänapäeva veised said alguse kõik ühest esivanemast, kelleks oli tarvas. Arvatakse, et viimane tarvas tapeti Poola aladel 1627aastal. Ajaloolises tagasivaates peeti veiseid alguses tööloomade ja sõnnikutootjatena, et tõsta põlluviljakust, kuna suhteliselt hästi oli arenenud teraviljakasvatus.

Japanese festivals Japanese festivals are traditional festive occasions. Some festivals have their roots in Chinese festivals but have undergone dramatic changes as they mixed with local customs. Some are so different that they do not even remotely resemble the original festival despite sharing the same name and date. There are also various local festivals (e.g. Tobata Gion) that are mostly unknown outside a given prefecture. It is commonly said that you will always find a festival somewhere in Japan. Matsuri is the Japanese word for a festival or holiday. In Japan, festivals are usually sponsored by a local shrine or temple, though they can be secular. There is no specific matsuri days for all of Japan; dates vary from area to area, and even within a specific area, but festival days do tend to cluster around traditional holidays such as Setsubun or Obon. Almost every locale has at least one mat...

Tulbid Tulp (Tulipa) on sibullillede perekond liilialiste (Liliaceae) sugukonnast, kuhu kuulub ca 100 liiki. Tulpe on pea kõikides värvitoonides ja neid on aias lihtne kasvatada. Eesti parkides kasvab metsistunult ehk naturaliseerunult kollaseõieline metstulp (T. Sylvestris). Stoolonite tõttu võib muutuda raskesti tõrjutavaks umbrohuks, mistõttu sobib suurepäraselt loodusparkidesse. Aiailutaimena ja lõikelilleks kasvatatakse aedtulpi (T. Gesnerana) rohkeid sorte, neid on aretatud u. 10 000. Tulbid on täiesti külmakindlad sibullilled, mis tuleb istutada viljakasse aiamulda septembris, oktoobris. Varajase kevade korral võivad esimesed tulbid õitsema minna juba aprillis, erinevaid sorte valides võivad tulbid õitseda kuni juuni keskpaigani. Kasvuperioodil on soovitav mulda kobestada ja kui on sademetevaene kevad, siis tuleks tulpe ka kasta. Kui aga multsite tulpide aluse pinna freesturba, männikoorepuruga, siis jääb mulla kobestamine ä...

Frank Sinatra oli vaieldamatult kõige tähtsam popmuusik 20. sajandil. Tema ainukesed rivaalid sellele tiitlile olid Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley ja the Beatles. Oma 60 aastat kestnud professionaalse karjääri jooksul demonstreeris ta oma erakordset võimet zarmi säilitamisel ja oma muusikaliste eesmärkide poole püüdlemisel hoolimata tihtipeale vastukäivatest trendidest. Ta tõusis esile 1930-te swingi ajastul, aitas kujuneda 40-te ja 50-te ,,laulu ajastul" (sing era), jätkuvalt võlus kuulajaid kesk-50-tel alanud roki ajastul. Ta üllitas oma esimese pop-hiti 1940. aastal ja andis välja miljonites müüvaid albumeid ka 1994. aastal. See populaarsus oli märk tema poolt lauldud ja promotud eriti 1920-te, 30-te ja 40-te populaarsete Ameerika poplaulude edust. Ta võis võtta selle perioodi suurte muusikaliheliloojate (Nt. nagu J. Kern, I. Berlin, G. Gershwin, C. Porter ja R. Rodgers) teoseid ja tõlkida neid laule sellisel viisil, mis viis nend...

1. Ancient Britain: the Celtic tribes. 2000 years ago there was an Iron Age Celtic culture throughout the Br Isles. It seems that the Celts, who had been arriving from Europe from the 8th cent BC onward, intermingled with the peoples who were already there. The Celts were extremely talented people, creative and artistic. More than 1 Celtic tribe invaded Br. The descendants of ancient Celts live in Wales, Scotland, Cornwall and Ireland. They lived in primitive society. Druids priests, more powerful than chiefs. Acted like prophets. 2. Stonehenge From prehistoric period. Was built on Salisbury plain between 2500 and 1500 bc. One of the most famous and mysterious archaeological sites in the world. One of the mysteries is how it was built at all with the technology of the time. Another is its purpose.
