Excerpt: William Harrison Hays, Sr. (November 5, 1879 March 7, 1954), was the namesake of the Hays Code for censorship of American films, chairman of the Republican National Committee (19181921) and U.S. Postmaster General from 1921 to 1922. Hays was born in Sullivan, Indiana. He was the manager of Warren G. Harding's successful campaign for the Presidency of the United States in the 1920 election and subsequently was appointed by Harding as Postmaster General. After a year in office, he resigned to become the choice of the Hollywood movie studios to become the first president of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) until he retired in 1945. In the postwar period, this organization would be renamed the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Hays resigned his cabinet position on January 14, 1922, in order to become the President of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) shortly after the organization's founding . He began his new job, at a $100,000 annual salary, on of that year . The goal of the organization was to renovate the image of the movie industry in the wake of the Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle rape and murder scandal and amid growing calls by primarily Protestant groups for federal censorship of the movies. Hiring Hays to "clean up the pictures" was, at least in part, a public relations ploy and much was made of his conservative credentials, including his roles as a Presbyterian deacon and past chairman of the Republican Party. Hays' main roles were to persuade individual state censor boards to not ban specific films outright and to reduce the financial impact of the boards' cuts a...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=501161 ...

Excerpt: Thomas Kennerly "Tom" Wolfe, Jr. (born March 2, 1931, although his Who's Who entry gives his date of birth as March 2, 1930) is a best-selling American author and journalist. He is one of the founders of the New Journalism movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Wolfe was born in Richmond, Virginia to Thomas Kennerly Wolfe, Sr. and Helen Hughes Wolfe. His father had received a Ph.D. from Cornell University and was a professor of agronomy at Virginia Tech. He also owned two farms and was the director of a successful farmer's cooperative. Wolfe Sr.'s success as a businessman afforded the family a genteel lifestyle. Wolfe Sr. also found time to pursue work as an author and journalist. He edited a farming journal, The Southern Planter, and published books on similar topics. It was Wolfe's mother, however, who introduced him to the arts. She enrolled her son in tap dancing and ballet, taught him to sketch and read to him regularly. By the age of 9, Wolfe had started writing. Not yet a teenager, Wolfe attempted to write a biography of Napoleon, and wrote and illustrated a life of Mozart. Wolfe was raised a Presbyterian, but when he was "thirteen or fourteen... just kind of wandered off." Wolfe was student council president, editor of the school newspaper and a star baseball player at St. Christopher's School, an Episcopalian all-boys scho...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=182812 ...

Product Description
Les achats comprennent une adhésion à l'essai gratuite au club de livres de l'éditeur, dans lequel vous pouvez choisir parmi plus d'un million d'ouvrages, sans frais. Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Elyon Portrait, Phobos, Cornelia Hale, Lord Cédric, Orube, Will Vandom, Caleb, Hay Lin, Nérissa, Yan Lin, Taranee Cook, Irma Lair, Oracle. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Elyon Portrait est un personnage de la bande dessinée W.I.T.C.H. et du dessin animé du même nom. C'est l'un des personnages les plus intéressant de la série, car son rôle quelque peu complexe dans la saison 1 retire un peu du manichéisme causé par Phobos. Elle est malheureusement peu réapparue par la suite. Elyon est née dans la Zone Obscure du Non-Lieu, un univers parallèle à la Terre, dans la ville de Méridian. Elle était la fille de la reine, et à ce titre, la couronne lui revenait de droit, car Méridian devait être gouvernée par une reine. Mais comme elle n'était alors qu'un bébé, son frère aîné, Phobos, pris le pouvoir en tant que régent et instaura une vraie dictature. Il voulut absorber l'énergie magique de sa sœur, mais la nourrice de celle-ci parvint à la sauver avec l'aide d'un couple d'officiers en l'emmenant sur Terre. Elyon fut élevé par le couple dans le monde des humains sous le nom de famille de "Portrait". Elle ignorait alors tout de Méridian et prenait le couple qui l'avait élevé pour ses parents. Elle grandit normalement dans la ville d'Heatherfield, et se lia d'amitié avec une jeune fille nommée Cornelia Hale, qui devint sa meilleure amie, ainsi qu'avec quatre autres filles: Irma Lair, Hay Lin, et, un peu plus tard, Will Vandom et Taranee Cook. Elle développa aussi des sentiments pour Matt, l'un des garçons de l'école, mais ne le lui avoua jamais. Mais, un jour, lors du bal d'Halloween de son collège, elle fit la connaissance de Cédric, un étrange libraire, qui n'était autre qu'un officier de Méridian au s...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...
