Asturias's father opposed the dictatorship of Manuel Estrada Cabrera. His parents were quite
persecuted. His father lost his job, and he and his family were forced to move in 1905 to one of
his grandparents house farm in Salam. It was here that Asturias first came into contact with
Guatemala's indigenous people; his nanny, Lola Reyes, was a young indigenous woman who
told him stories of their myths and legends that would later have a great influence on his work.
In 1908, his family returned to Guatemala.
Asturias began writing as a student and wrote the first draft of a story that would later become
his novel The President. In 1922, Asturias spent a year studying medicine before switching to
the faculty of law at the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala in Guatemala. After he
finished his law studies, he went to study to Paris at the Sorbonne where he finished his novel
The President. In 1949, Asturias served as an ambassador to Mexico where he wrote his
masterpiece Men of Maize. He believed that the development in Guatemala depended on
better integration of indigenous communities and a more equal distribution of wealth in the
country. When the government of President Jacobo Arbenz fell in 1954, Asturias went into
exile.
In 1966, democratically elected President Julio Csar Mndez Montenegro achieved power
and Asturias was given back his Guatemalan citizenship.
In 1945, he was sent to Paris, where he wrote The Labyrinth of Solitude. In 1952, he travelled
to India, Tokyo and Switzerland. His early poetry was influenced by Marxism, surrealism, and
existentialism, as well as religions such as Buddhism and Hinduism. When he returned to
Mexico City in 1954, he wrote his great poem Sunstone which was praised as a magnificent
example of surrealist poetry. From 1970 to 1974, he lectured the Charles Eliot Norton
professorship at Harvard University. In 1990, Paz invited several of the world's writers and
intellectuals to Mexico City to discuss the collapse of communism, including Cornelius
Castoriadis, Mario Vargas Llosa and Carlos Franqui. The encounter was broadcast on Mexican
television.
His mother, Luisa Santiaga Marquez, was the daughter of a liberal veteran Coronel of the
Thousand Days War, whom Garca Mrquez described as his "umbilical cord with history and
reality," for being an excellent storyteller. He enjoyed his grandmother's unique way of telling
stories. No matter how fantastic or improbable her statements, she always delivered them as if
they were the irrefutable truth.
His parents had to leave Gabito and his brother when his father became a pharmacist in
Barranquilla.Since Garca Mrquez's parents were more or less strangers to him for the first
few years of his life, his grandparents influenced his early development very strongly. His
grandfather used to teach him lessons from the dictionary and take him to the circus each year.
Garca Mrquez began his career as a journalist while studying law at the National University
of Colombia. After the so-called "Bogotazo" in 1948, bloody riots that erupted on April 9
because of the assassination of the popular leader Jorge Gaitan, the university closed
indefinitely and his pension was burned. Garca Mrquez moved to the University of
Cartagena. He pursued a self-directed education that resulted in his leaving law school for a
career in journalism. From early on, he showed no inhibitions in his criticism of Colombian and
foreign politics.
His literary works such as A Hundred Years of Solitude, Love in the Time of Colera, No one
writes to the Colonel among others labeled as magic realism, which uses magical elements
and events in otherwise ordinary and realistic situations. Garcia Marquezs imagination
produces a visual image; that is why many of his histories have been adapted to films, the
television series and even to form opera.
His maternal family, the Llosas, was sustained by his grandfather, who managed a cotton farm.
As a child, Vargas Llosa was told that his father had diedhis mother and her family did not
want to explain that his parents had separated. In 1946, at the age of ten, he moved to Lima
and met his father for the first time. His parents re-established their relationship and lived in
Magdalena del Mar. When Vargas Llosa was fourteen, his father sent him to the Leoncio Prado
Military Academy in Lima.
At the age of 16, before his graduation, Vargas Llosa began working as an amateur journalist
for local newspaper. In 1953, during the government of Manuel A. Odra, Vargas Llosa enrolled
in Lima's National University of San Marcos, the oldest university of the Americas, to study law
and literature. Upon his graduation from the National University of San Marcos in 1958, he
received a scholarship to study at the Complutense University of Madrid in Spain.Vargas Llosa
rose to fame in the 1960s with novels such as The Time of the Hero and The City and the
Dogs, The Green House and the monumental Conversation in the Cathedral.
In 1971, Vargas Llosa published Garca Mrquez: Story of a Deicide which was his doctoral
thesis for the Complutense University of Madrid. He writes prolifically across an array of literary
genres, including literary criticism and journalism. His novels include comedies, murder
mysteries, historical novels, and political thrillers. Several, such as Captain Pantoja and the
Special Service and Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter have been adapted as feature films.
Growing up on the gritty streets of Hoboken, New Jersey, made Frank Sinatra determined to
work hard to get ahead. Starting out as a saloon singer in musty little dives (he carried his own
P.A. system), he eventually got work as a band singer, first with The Hoboken Four, then with
Harry James and then Tommy Dorsey. With the help of George Evans (Sinatra's genius press
agent), his image was shaped into that of a street thug and punk who was saved by his first
wife, Nancy Barbato.
Although his presidency is barely a week old, some of Mr. Obamas work habits are already
becoming clear. He shows up at the Oval Office shortly before 9 in the morning, roughly two
hours later than his early-to-bed, early-to-rise predecessor. Mr. Obama likes to have his
workout weights and cardio first thing in the morning, at 6:45. (Mr. Bush slipped away to
exercise midday.)
Taken from http://dailyroutines.typepad.com/daily_routines/statesmen/ on May 20th-2014
He reads several papers, eats breakfast with his family and helps pack his daughters, Malia,
10, and Sasha, 7, off to school before making the 30-second commute downstairs a definite
perk for a man trying to balance work and family life. He eats dinner with his family, then often
returns to work; aides have seen him in the Oval Office as late as 10 p.m., reading briefing
papers for the next day.
20th-2014
89:30 a.m. Worked in his study; he considered this his best working time.
9:3010:30 a.m. Went to drawing-room and read his letters, followed by reading aloud of family
letters.
12 or 12:15 p.m. Returned to study, which period he considered the end of his working day.
12 noon Walk, starting with visit to greenhouse, then round the sandwalk, the number of times
depending on his health, usually alone or with a dog.
12:45 p.m. Lunch with whole family, which was his main meal of the day. After lunch read The
Times and answered his letters.
3 p.m. Rested in his bedroom on the sofa and smoked a cigarette, listened to a novel or other
light literature read by ED [Emma Darwin, his wife.
4 p.m. Walked, usually round sandwalk, sometimes farther afield and sometimes in company.
4:305:30 p.m. Worked in study, clearing up matters of the day.
7.30 p.m. Light high tea while the family dined. In late years never stayed in the dining room
with the men, but retired to the drawing-room with the ladies. If no guests were present, he
played two games of backgammon with ED, usually followed by reading to himself, then ED
played the piano, followed by reading aloud.
10 p.m. Left the drawing-room and usually in bed by 10:30, but slept badly. Even when guests
were present, half an hour of conversation at a time was all that he could stand, because it
exhausted him.
In 1860 and 1861, eleven southern states decided to secede (break away) from the
United States and form their own government. It was called the Confederate States of
America. Richmond, Virginia was made their capital. Congress declared war on April
14, 1861 for the purposes of preserving the Union. The first shots of the Civil War were
fired two days earlier at Fort Sumter, South Carolina.
The war that ensued was long and deadly. Over 500,000 soldiers were killed, by far,
more than any other war in American history. Both the north and the south won many
major victories. Many battles proved inconclusive. The northern side, however, had
more people and supplies. The turning point in the war occurred between July 1-3 of
1863 at the Battle of Gettysburg. It was the only time the south waged a major battle on
northern soil (not including battles fought in border states). The Union (Northern) army
was victorious and drove the Confederates back to Virginia.
In 1864, the Confederate Army was further weakened. Union forces had cut the
Confederacy in two separate parts by taking over the Mississippi River and the port of
New Orleans. Robert E. Lee's army was also under constant attack from Union general
Ulysses S. Grant throughout Virginia. Finally, after Union forces invaded the
Confederate capital of Richmond, the Confederate States of America were forced to
surrender on April 9, 1865 at Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia. The war was over and
the Union was preserved.
8 Reading "Starfish"
Starfish, sometimes called sea stars, are found in all of the world's oceans, even in the icy
Arctic Ocean. They are a kind of ocean invertebrate, which means they lack backbones. All
starfish have at least five arms, but some have more. Many kinds of starfish can re-grow arms
that are bitten off by predators. Starfish can be dull or colorful and come in many different
sizes. Scientists believe there are more than 1,500 types of starfish.
Starfish attack and eat other invertebrates. Some starfish, however, are harmful to undersea
communities because they eat special kinds of coral or fish. Starfish are rarely eaten by
humans because their bodies are bony and taste bad. Humans often use them as ornaments
or collectibles.
Parks is famous for her refusal on December 1, 1955 to obey bus driver James Blakes
demand that she relinquish her seat to a white man. Her subsequent arrest and trial for this act
of civil disobedience triggered the Montgomery Bus Boycott, one of the largest and most
successful mass movements against racial segregation in history, and launched Martin Luther
King, Jr., one of the organizers of the boycott, to the forefront of the civil rights movement. Her
role in American history earned her an iconic status in American culture, and her actions have
left an enduring legacy for civil rights movements around the world.
As a child, Rosa became aware of the segregation which was deeply embedded in Alabama.
She experienced deep rooted racism, and became aware of the different opportunities faced by
white and black children. She also recalls seeing a Klu Klux Klan march go past her house
where her father stood outside with a shotgun. Due to the Jim Crow laws, most black voters
were effectively disenfranchised.
In 1932, she married Raymond Parks, a barber from Montgomery. He was active in the NAACP
and Rosa Parks became a supporter helping with fund-raising and other initiatives. She
attended meetings defending the rights of black people and seeking to prevent injustice.
Louis Pasteur was born in Dole, Eastern France. He was a conscientious and hard working
student, though not considered exceptional. One of his professors called him mediocre. He
received a doctorate in 1847 and after obtaining posts at Strasbourg, Lille and Paris he spent
much time researching aspects of Chemistry.
His most important discoveries were in the field of germ study. He showed that germs required
certain micro-organisms to develop; using this knowledge he found that the fermentation of
yeast could be delayed. Louis Pasteur then turned to practical ways of killing bacteria in liquids
such as milk. His process of pasteurisation successfully killed bacteria in milk without
destroying milk protein. This was a radical discovery and made drinking milk safe. The process
of pasteurisation was named after him and it saved many lives.
Louis Pasteur next created a cure for anthrax a disease that mainly affects cattle. He found
that by giving cattle a weakened form of the illness they were able to develop immunity to the
illness.
This success encouraged him to develop a cure for rabies a very common disease at the
time.
Louis Pasteur had great faith in the good nature of humans. He worked tirelessly to deliver real
benefits for the treatment of infectious diseases. More than any other person, Louis Pasteur
helped to increase the life expectancy of man in the late nineteenth and early twentieth
Century.
Eva Peron was born in rural poverty in a town called Los Toldos. She was the illegitimate
daughter of a failed land owner. Aged fifteen, she left her rural home to go to Buenos Aires
where she hoped to pursue her theatrical career.
Aided by her natural beauty she gained work in the theatre. In Buenos Aires she also began
campaigning for women to be given the vote and to deal with the widespread poverty endemic
in Argentina.
She caught the eye of prominent politician, Juan Domingo Peron, and in 1945 they were
married and six months later she became President Perons first lady.
As the presidents wife she took a high profile in campaigning for issues such as womens
rights and for the improvement of the descamisados (shirtless) i.e. the very poor.
Her supporters dispute these assertions of her enemies, arguing the military and political
opponents were merely trying to tarnish her image.
In 1952 she was given the title of spiritual chief of the nation. Six months later, in 1952, she
died tragically young from cancer.
In 1955, Juan Peron was overthrown by a military coup, they took her body and had it interned
in a Milanese grave under the name of a nun. They feared her legacy would provide a point of
opposition to the military regime.
In 1973, Juan Peron returned to Argentina to begin a third term as president after the military
regime were overthrown. Eva Perons body was returned in November 1974
Eva Peron remains an important symbol of emancipation, especially for women in Latin
America. She was one of the first women to create a lasting political / humanitarian legacy.
Christina Fernandez, the first female elected President of Argentina, claims that women of her
generation owe a debt to Eva for her example of passion and combativeness.
Elizabeth was the eldest child of Prince Albert, the Duke of York (later George VI) and his wife
Elizabeth (later known as the Queen Mother). Her father Prince Albert was second in line to the
throne, until his elder brother Edward VIII abdicated in 1936 pushing the shy Prince Albert
into an unexpected role of King. King George VI rose to the challenge though he died early in
1952.
In 1952, her father, George VI passed away and Queen Elizabeth was crowned to widespread
enthusiasm. Her coronation set TV records around the globe, and it appeared to usher in a
new era for the monarchy and British Commonwealth. News of Edmund Hilary reaching the
peak of Mt Everest were delayed to coincide with her coronation. It appeared a symbolic end to
the post-war austerity.
The 1950s could be seen as the golden age for the Queen. Deference and respect to the Royal
family were still high, and the young Elizabeth looked like the fairytale Princess. However, over
the next few decades, widespread social change saw a decline in traditional attitudes to the
monarchy. Also the new era of TV and intense media scrutiny led to many unfavourable
headlines as her children were caught up in marital problems and related scandals.
Walt Disney was born on 5 December, 1901, in Chicago. His parents were of German/English
and Irish descent. As a child, the Disney family moved between Marceline in Missouri, Kansas
City and back to Chicago. The young Walt Disney developed an interest in art, and took
lessons at the Kansas City Institute and later Chicago Art Institute. He became the cartoonist
for the school magazine.
When America joined the First World War, Walt dropped out of school and tried to enlist in the
army. He was rejected for being underage, but he was later able to enlist in the Red Cross and
in late 1918 was sent to France to drive an ambulance.
In 1919, he moved back to Kansas City where he got a series of jobs, before finding
employment in his area of greatest interest the film industry. It was working for the Kansas
City Film Ad company that he gained the opportunity to begin working in the relatively new field
of animation. Walt used his talent as a cartoonist and drawer to begin his first work.
In 1927, the Disney studio was involved in the successful production of Oswald the Lucky
Rabbit, distributed through Universal Pictures. However, with Universal Pictures controlling the
rights to Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Walt was not able to profit from this success. He rejected
an offer from Universal and went back to working on his own.
It was at this point, that he created the character Mickey Mouse (originally called Mortimer
Mouse). Ub Iwerks drew Mickey Mouse, and Walt gave a voice to the character.
The Mickey Mouse cartoons with sound tracks became very popular and cemented the
growing reputation and strength of Disney Productions. The skill of Walt Disney was to give his
cartoons believable real life characteristics. They were well drawn and captured the imagination
of the audience through his pioneering use of uplifting stories and moral traits.
In 1932, he received his first Academy Award for Best short subject: Cartoons for the three
coloured Flowers and Trees He also received a special Academy Award for Mickey Mouse.
In 1933, he developed his most successful cartoon of all time The Three Little Pigs (1933)
with the famous song Whose afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.

14 Reading "Pele"
Pele is the most iconic footballer of the twentieth Century. He epitomised the flair, joy and
passion the Brazilians bought to the game.
In his early career, the young and unknown Pele helped inspire Brazil to victory in the 1958
World Cup. In 1962, Brazil retained the World Cup. In 1966, Brazil were hot favourites, but, lost
out to the home nation England.
His crowing glory was the Brazilian victory in the 1970 World Cup in Mexico. In this world cup,
some of the football played by Brazil and Pele was widely considered to the greatest in the
history of the game. Brazil won the final 4-1 against Italy; it was a genuine advertisement for
the beautiful game and a fitting pinnacle of Peles international career.
Pele went on to score over 1,000 goals in professional games. (The 1000th goal coming as a
penalty in the US league sparking celebrations around the world). His strike rate in international
games was one of the highest ever. In 92 appearances, he scored 77 goals.
In the domestic league, Pele made his debut for Santos aged just 16. He played for Santos in
the Brazilian league from until the 1972-73 season.
Pele finished his career in the lucrative US league. In 1975, he signed for New York Cosmos
and played three seasons. He led the New York Cosmos to the US title in 1977 the year of
his retirement.
After retiring has gone onto be a great ambassador for football and sport in general. In 1992,
Pel was appointed a UN ambassador for ecology and the environment. He was also
appointed a UNESCO goodwill ambassador. He is not only one of the most gifted footballers of
his generation, but, also a mild mannered man who used his fame and prestige for a positive
effect.
In 1984, he was also selected to be in the US Olympic basketball team, where, with the team,
he won the gold medal.
In the late 1980s, Jordan led an increasingly successful Chicago Bulls team. They won their
first championship in 1991 and went on to win six titles in the space of nine years. Along the
way, Jordan broke many of the long standing NBA records. In 1988-89, he led the league with
32.5 points per game.
In 1992, Jordan again returned to the Olympics. This time as a full professional Jordan was
part of the Dream Team. The US easily won the Olympic gold with their opponents often
admitting they felt honoured to be on the same court as Michael Jordan and the dream team.
However, in 1993, a series of personal difficulties caused him to temporarily retire from the
game. His father was murdered during an armed robbery, devastating Jordan who saw his
father as his closest confident. He was also struggling with his own gambling issues.
For a short time, he made a foray into baseball, playing the 1994 season for the Birmingham
Barons. But, in the 1994-95 season he came back to his primary love basketball. Despite
losing some of his youthful speed, Jordan still had the magic touch and led the Chicago Bulls to
the semi finals with some stellar performances. The next year, 1995-96, he led the Chicago
Bulls to another title.
Jordan continued to play until past his 40th birthday in the 2002-03 season.
After he finally retired, he had played a total of 1,072 games, with a points per game average of
30.1 and a total of 32,292 points.
In June 2010, Jordan was ranked by Forbes Magazine as the 20th-most powerful celebrity in
the world with $55 million earned between June 2009 and June 2010. According to the Forbes
article, Jordan Brand generates $1 billion in sales for Nike.
The second appearance of the ghost was on Sunday night. Shortly after the family had gone to
bed they heard a fearful crash in the hall. A suit of armour had fallen on the floor and in a chair
sat the Canterville ghost and rubbed his knees, which seemed to hurt. When the twins started
shooting peas at him with their pea-shooters, the ghost stood up with an angry growl and
passed through them like a mist. He also blew out the candle, leaving them all in total
darkness. On top of the stairs the ghost turned around and, in order to frighten the Otis boys,
laughed his most horrible laugh. Just then, a door opened and Mrs Otis came out of her
bedroom. I am afraid you are not well, she said, I have therefore brought you this bottle of
medicine. The ghost looked at her furiously, and then he disappeared.
When he reached his room, he was completely exhausted. This American family was extremely
annoying. But what annoyed him most was, that he had not been able to wear the suit of
armour. The weight of it had made him fall and hurt his knees.
For some days after this the ghost only left his room to renew the blood-stain. However, on
Friday, the 17th of August, he tried to frighten the Otis family again. At half-past ten the family
went to bed. For some time the ghost heard the twins laugh, but at a quarter past eleven all
was still. So, at midnight he left his secret chamber and glided through the corridors, when
suddenly, behind one corner, a horrible ghost stood right in front of him. As the Canterville
ghost had never seen another ghost before, he was terribly frightened. He quickly hurried back
to his room. But then he thought that he should go and speak to the other ghost. After all, two
ghosts were better than one, and his new friend might help him to frighten the twins. However,
when he came back to the spot, he found that this 'other ghost' was not real, but only a white
sheet which the twins had hung there to play a trick on him. Very upset the Canterville ghost
went back to his chamber.
