Carson, Rachel Louise (1907-1964) Biologist, Writer: Born on May 27, 1907 in western Pennsylvania, Carson became interested in wildlife as a child.

Jimi Hendrix
La 27 noiembrie 1942 se naste la Seattle James Marshall Hendrix dintr-o familie in care s-a amestecat sange de alb, negru si rosu. La unsprezece ani, putin dupa moartea mamei sale, incepe sa cante la chitara. La 16 ani abandoneaza scoala si devine un muzician ratacitor. Ei, nu trubadur, nu, ci rythm&blues si rock’n’roll. Dupa ce face armata la parasutisti, la 21 de ani devine session man, adicatalea canta si el cu cine avea nevoie de un chitarist de acompaniament. In ‚65 isi face primul grup, dar nu are prea mare succes in America, asa ca un baiat dragut, Chas Chandler de la Animals il duce la Londinium, unde Jimi devine star. Dupa ce da niste albume tari gen „Are you experienced?”(‚67) sau „Electric Ladyland”(‚68) si dupa ce face istorie la Woodstock(‚69) si in insula Wight(‚70), Jimi moare din cauza unei supradoze in anul de gratie 1970. Daca va fascineaza chitara lui ca si pe mine, va invit sa-i cititi si versurile. Merita.

Woody Allen
Woody Allen (1 decembrie, 1935), New York, numele inițial Allen Stewart Konigsberg, numele legal Heywood Allen, este unul dintre cei mai importanți regizori de film și comedieni americani, de naționalitate evreu. În primăvara lui 1952 Allan S. Königsberg și-a schimbat numele în Woody Allen. La 16 ani a început să scrie glume pe care le-a trimis principalelor ziare newyorkeze, sperând ca ziariștii să le folosească. Fiind timid, nu a vrut ca colegii de școala să-i vadă numele în ziar, în cazul în care glumele vor fi fost publicate. Foarte curând, glumele lui au fost frecvent folosite de Earl Wilson de la New York Post, apărând nesemnate sub rubrica Earls Pearls. Doar pe data de 25 noiembrie 1952, numele său va fi menționat la sfârșitul rubricii, și din acel moment lucrurile încep să-i mearga bine ca autor umoristic și de comedie. În 1953, Woody s-a înscris la facultatea de artă cinematografică la Universitatea New York. Nefiind interesat să asiste la o mare parte din cursuri , și având...

William Wordsworth
William Wordsworth was born on April 17, 1770 in Cockermouth, Cumberland, in the Lake District. His father was John Wordsworth, Sir James Lowther\'s attorney. The magnificent landscape deeply affected Wordsworth\'s imagination and gave him a love of nature. He lost his mother when he was eight and five years later his father. The domestic problems separated Wordsworth from his beloved and neurotic sister Dorothy, who was a very important person in his life. With the help of his two uncles, Wordsworth entered a local school and continued his studies at Cambridge University. Wordsworth made his debut as a writer in 1787, when he published a sonnet in The European Magazine . In that same year he entered St. John\'s College, Cambridge, from where he took his B.A. in 1791. During a summer vacation in 1790 Wordsworth went on a walking tour through revolutionary France and also traveled in Switzerland. On his second journey in France, Wordsworth had an affair with a French girl, Annette...

Carmen Harra
Carmen Harra in her own words: Even as a little girl growing up in Romania, I knew I was different. After a near-death experience at age five, I was able to see things others couldn\'t. Everyone who has had a near-death experience describes the sensation of \"going toward the light.” In this parallel world, extraordinary light energy surrounds you and you see an inexpressibly beautiful light. There is no negativity and no anger or sadness, only love. It is a perfect, glowing world, filled with dazzling insights and pure truth, the way our Creator meant it to be. I\'ve never forgotten the lessons this experience taught me. Why, I wondered, wasn\'t life on Earth like this? This parallel world, which I call the Invisible World, is just as real as the physical world here on Earth. It is even more real because the people there are souls unencumbered by ego, emotions, and attachment to material things. Without these negative distractions, souls exist harmoniously in love, joy, and peace. On...
