Labor Day or Labour Day is an annual holiday to celebrate the economic and social achievements of workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest.
Celebrating the Australian labour movement, the Labour Day public holiday is fixed by the various state and territory governments, and so varies considerably. It is the first Monday in October in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales and South Australia. In both Victoria and Tasmania, it is the second Monday in March (though the latter calls it Eight Hours Day). In Western Australia, Labour Day is the first Monday in March. In both Queensland and the Northern Territory, it is the first Monday in May.
In Bangladesh, it is observed on 1 May and is a Government holiday.
Kate Elizabeth Winslet (born 5 October 1975) is an English actress. She was the youngest person to accrue six Academy Award nominations, and won the Academy Award for Best Actress for The Reader (2008). She has won awards from the Screen Actors Guild, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association among others, and has been nominated twice for an Emmy Award for television acting, winning once for her role as Mildred Pierce in the 2011 mini-series of the same name.
Brought up in Berkshire, Winslet studied drama from childhood, and began her career in British television in 1991. She made her film debut in Heavenly Creatures (1994), for which she received her first notable critical praise. She achieved recognition for her subsequent work in a supporting role in Sense and Sensibility (1995) and for her leading role in Titanic (1997), the highest grossing film at the time, and the highest grossing film of Winslet's career.
Since 2000, Winslet's performances have continued to draw positive comments from film critics, and she has been nominated for various awards for her work in such films as Quills (2000), Iris (2001), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), Finding Neverland (2004), Little Children (2006), The Reader (2008) and Revolutionary Road (2008). Her performance in the last of these prompted New York magazine critic David Edelstein to describe her as "the best English-speaking film actress of her generation". The romantic comedy The Holiday and the animated film Flushed Away (both 2006) are among the biggest commercial successes of her career.

Neulich rief mich Harry an und sagte, dass er fliegen kann
ich sprach: das ist doch glatt gelogen!
da flog er los, er flog ein Stück - doch dann brach er sich das Genick
und das kommt nur von diesen Drogen
ich sag euch nee, nee, nee -
da trink ich doch lieber Tee!
gestern traf ich Sylvia die sagte: ach, da bist du ja
und sie wirkte leicht benommen
sie redete und redete und redete und redete
auch das tut nur von Drogen kommen
ich sag euch nee, nee, nee
da trink ich doch lieber Tee!
vorhin begegnete ich Frank, der sah so aus, als wär er krank
und er hatte es sehr eilig
er sah mich ziemlich glasig an und rannte gegen einen Schrank -
auch da warn Drogen dran beteiligt
ich sag euch...
und nachts, wenn es dunkel wird,
wenn man infolge der Lichtverhältnisse nichts mehr sehen kann -
nach Sonnenuntergang (im Finstern) -
sitzen seltsame Gestalten die zu allem Überfluss noch ihre Sonnenbrillen tragen
auf orange-geblümten Sofas und da rauchen sie dann Haschisch
aber das ist streng geheim...
