Charles Dickens was born on the 7th of February, 1812. Google honours him for the 200th birthday with a Doodle on his homepage. Charles Dickens was second of eight children. In 1823 the father could not nourish the big family any more and came to the debt prison of London. The mother moved with seven brothers and sisters in the prison. Only Charles Dickens lived outside to earn the maintenance for the family. He worked in a warehouse. This experience inspired him to some passages in his novel “David Copperfield”.

A Mel Gibson film,one of my favourate films,and I love the music very much,so,I made this. The Patriot tells the story of Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson), a widowed father of seven children, as he tries to keep his family together during the Revolutionary War. He had fought in the French and Indian War, since married and started a family. He has tried to put his actions in that war behind him, but still carries some guilt and regret from those actions. He fears that his past will come back to haunt him. When war breaks out, his eldest son Gabriel (Heath Ledger) joins the fight against his wishes. Benjamin soon ends up reluctantly joining the fight as well. His successfully leads a militia band against the British until Colonel William Tavington (Jason Isaacs) is ordered to do everything he can to capture or kill Martin and his South Carolina militia.

Battling with addiction is an extremely difficult, and when you?re in the limelight, it can be even harder?just ask outfielder Josh Hamilton. The Texas Ranger All-Star player, who has been outspoken about his struggles with alcoholism and drug addiction, was drinking in a bar on Monday night in Dallas at Sherlock?s Pub Grill, according to the Dallas Morning News. His teammate Ian Kinsler even showed up for what seemed to be an attempt at bringing Hamilton home, but he was reportedly unsuccessful. It was the second alcohol relapse in three years?an earlier incident of excessive drinking occurred in 2009 in Arizona, forcing Hamilton to speak publicly about his addictions. After being the number one draft pick in 1999, Hamilton missed seasons early in his career because of his alcoholism, but staged a big comeback. Hopefully his team and his family can keep him from having to stage another one.

The Boston Red Sox took a major step toward revamping their pitching staff, acquiring closer Andrew Bailey in a five-player trade with the Oakland A's on Wednesday. The Red Sox will also receive outfielder Ryan Sweeney while sending outfielder Josh Reddick and minor leaguers Miles Head, a corner infielder, and Raul Alcantara, a right-handed pitcher, to Oakland. Bailey, 27, was the AL Rookie of the Year in 2009 and had 24 saves, a 3.24 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 41 2/3 innings for Oakland last season. In three big league seasons he's posted a 2.07 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 75 saves. The Red Sox lost long-time closer Jonathan Papelbon earlier this offseason when he signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia Phillies for four years and $50 million. Bailey's addition likely means Daniel Bard (3.33 ERA in 73 innings in 2011) will shift from setup man to Boston's starting rotation. Earlier this month the Red Sox traded for right-hander Mark Melancon from the Houston Astros. Melancon, 26, had 20 saves last season but will likely slide into Bard's setup role. “I love the Bay Area, but if you're going to get traded, I can't think of a better situation for myself and my family to be in,” Bailey told mlb.com. “It's a big market, big team, and I'm excited about the opportunity to win over there, especially knowing Bobby (manager Valentine).” Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington told RedSox.com the team likes Bailey's track record and character. “He's done it for three years in the …
