The Eiffel Tower is located on the Champ
de Mars in Paris. Built in 1889, it has become both a global icon of France
and one of the most recognizable building in the world.
It is the highest building in Paris and
the most-visited monument in the world. Millions of people visit it every
year. The engineer Gustave Eifell came up with his name for this tower. It was built as the entrance
arch to the 1889 World’s Fair.
The tower is 324 meters (1,063 ft)
tall, and has height as an 80-storey building. Upon its completion, it is higher
than the Washington Monument to assume the title of the tallest man-made structure in
the world. The title is held for 41 years until the Chrysler Building in New York
city was built in 1930. But due to the addition of antenna in 1957, the tower
is now higher than the Chrysler
Building and it is the second-tallest structure in France after the 2004.

Muhammad Hatta, well known as Bung Hatta, is an
Indonesian nationalist leader and vice-president. He was born in Bukittinggi,
Sumatra in 1902. He spent his life studying in Netherlands. In 1932, he
obtained a doctorate in economics in 1932.
Returning to Indonesia, he became active in the

In 1945, after the proclamation of Indonesia's
Independence, Hatta became a vice-president under Sukarno of
the Indonesia Republic. By 1948 Hatta was the prime minister of the
struggling government. As vice-president, he disagreed more and more with
President Sukarno's policies, and he resigned in 1956. After Sukarno's fall
in 1966, Hatta served the new government in various advisory in economic and financial matters. In 1980,
he died as one of the national heroes. He had devoted his life for the national
interest, not only in struggling period, but also in the developing era.

Once upon a
time, there lived as neighbours, a bear and a rabbit. The rabbit was a good
shot. In contrary, the bear was always clumsy and could not use the arrow to
good advantage.
One day, the
bear called over the rabbit and asked the rabbit to take his bow and arrows
and came with bear to the other side of the hill. The rabbit was preventing
to arouse the bear’s anger so he could not refuse it. He consented and went
with the bear and shot enough buffalo to satisfy the hungry family. Indeed he
shot and killed so many that there was lots of meat left after the bear and
his family had loaded themselves and packed all they could carry home.
The bear was
very gluttonous and did not want the rabbit to get any of the meat. The
rabbit could not even taste the blood from the butchering as the bear would
throw earth on the blood and dry it up. The poor rabbit would have to go home
hungry after his hard day’s work.
The bear was the
father of five children. The youngest child was very kind to the rabbit. He
was very hearty eater. The mother bear always gave him an extra large piece
of meat but the youngest child did not eat it. He would take it outside with
him and pretended to play ball with the meat. He kicked toward the rabbit’s
house and when he got close to the door he would give the meat with such a
great kick. The meat would fly into the rabbit’s house. In this way, the poor
rabbit would get his meal unknown to the papa bear.

Albert Einstein is one of the most notable and influential scientists of
the twentieth century. Although he became known as a genius of science and
gained considerable fame later in life, as a child he was slow in learning to
speak, and had a rebellious nature towards the conventional styles of
learning at school. Inspired by a compass, his “sacred little geometry book”,
and classical music, his interest in science and mathematics grew and by the
age of sixteen he was writing his first research science paper, and
attempting to skip the last few years of high school to enter the Swiss
institute of Technology. He failed the entrance exam but set a precedent in
his life for thinking outside of the box and challenging the rules.
His most famous discovery is the theory of relativity, E=MC2, which
overturned Isaac Newton’s laws by explaining the relation of energy and mass
as a consequence of space and time. First introduced in a 3-page paper in
1905, the theory was so revolutionary it couldn’t be proven until more
advanced technology was available years later.
Born in Germany and raised in the Jewish faith, Einstein strongly opposed
injustices of race and religion and often lent himself to the American civil
rights movement and the efforts of the Zionist movement to preserve and
cultivate the Jewish faith. He was instrumental in setting up the Hebrew
University of Israel and was even invited to become Israel’s second
president, which he declined. Above all else Einstein maintained a
non-nationalistic pacifist belief and urged for the disarmament of all
nations and the formation of a one-world government. Often credited as the
creator of the atom bomb, Einstein merely wrote a letter to President
Roosevelt warning of Germany’s possible use of nuclear weapons and was
actually barred from participating in the United States’ development of the
atom bomb.
Albert Einstein is not only a world-renowned scientist who left an
indelible mark on the world but also an icon of popular culture whose name
and image have come to represent genius and intellect.

have bought his salt.
Next, the man went to a house where a wedding was
taking place. There, he dug a huge hole. This made the people angry and they
chased him away. When he returned home, his father told him that if he had
beaten a drum and danced instead, the people would have bought salt from him.
Then, he went to a village where a fire happened.
Rushing to the place, he started drumming and dancing, only to be thrown out
by the people. His father told him that he should have poured water on the
fire instead, if he wanted to sell the salt.
In the next place, a couple were fighting each other. The foolish man poured a
bucketful of water on them, again he was chased away. His father later told
him that he should have tried to settle the quarrel, so, they would have
bought salt from him.

country. On her sixteenth birthday,
the princess happily moved around the palace. She suddenly found a secret
room where an old
woman was spinning some yarn. She invited the princess to learn to spin. In
a hurry, she pricked her finger
and at once fell asleep for one hundred years. The good fairy also made all
the people present in
the palace asleep. This condition prevailed there for the next one hundred
years.
Many years passed by, wild
creepers and bushes
covered the whole palace. Many young men tried to enter the palace. But
they were not successful.

Tōkyō
tawā,
officially called Nippon denpatō "Japan Radio
Tower" is communications
and observation tower in the Shiba-koen
district of Minato,
Tokyo, Japan. At 332.9 metres (1,092 ft), it is the second-tallest structure in Japan.
The structure is an Eiffel
Tower-inspired lattice
tower that is painted white and international orange to comply
with air
safety regulations.
Built in 1958, the tower's main sources of income are
tourism and antenna leasing. Over 150 million people have visited the
tower. FootTown, a four-story building directly under the tower, houses
museums, restaurants and shops. Departing from there, guests can visit two
observation decks. The two-story Main Deck is at 150 metres (490 ft),
while the smaller Top Deck reaches a height of 249.6 metres (819 ft).
The names were changed following renovation of the top deck in 2018.
The tower acts as a support structure for an antenna.
Intended for television broadcasting, radio antennas were installed in 1961,
but the tower now broadcasts signals for Japanese media outlets such as NHK, TBS and Fuji TV. Japan's planned digital television transition by
July 2011 was problematic, however; Tokyo Tower's height, 332.9 m
(1,092 ft) was not high enough to support complete terrestrial digital broadcasting to
the area. A taller digital broadcasting tower, known as Tokyo Skytree, was completed on 29 February
2012. Every five years Tokyo Tower is repainted. It takes one year to repaint
it.
Since its completion in 1958, Tokyo Tower has become a
prominent landmark in
the city, and frequently appears in media set in Tokyo.

“Supermoon" is when the moon appears large and this
happens when the moon comes closer to Earth than normal, and this happens
during full moon or new moon. Each month, the moon's distance varies between
354,000 km (20,000 miles) and 410,000 km (254,000 miles) due to the
elliptical orbit of the moon around Earth.
An "Extreme Supermoon" is when the moon has the
closest approach to the Earth during its orbit. On 19 March
2011, the moon will have its closest approach since 19 January 1992. The
distance between the Earth and the Moon will be just 356,577 km (221,567
miles) on 19 March 2011. There has been speculations that this could cause
natural disasters and some has even linked it with the Earthquake and Tsunami
of Sendai, Japan on 11 March 2011. But, it has been clarified that the small
change in the distance will not cause any huge changes in Earth.
