Thomas Jefferson (April 13, 1743 –  July 4, 1826) was the third president of the United States.
He wrote the Declaration of Independence while others signed it and wrote the Statute of Religious Freedom.
He was also a planter with many slaves, though he freed several people in the Hemings family.
Jefferson, the third of ten children, was born on April 13, 1743 in Shadwell, Virginia into a planter family.
His parents were Peter and Jane Jefferson.
He had six sisters and three brothers.
At 9 years old, Thomas Jefferson began studying Latin, Greek, and French; he also learned to ride horses, with highest honors.
He went on to become a lawyer.
Jefferson wanted the Thirteen Colonies to be free from Great Britain.
Jefferson quickly assumed a leadership rule among like-minded men of his generation.
He was a member of the Second Continental Congress.
He was chosen to be in the group of officials that wrote the Declaration of Independence and was its main writer.
He was selected by George Washington as the first Secretary of State.
Jefferson thought that the federal government should be small.
He had the opposite view of Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton about the federal government.
Together with James Madison in 1792, he founded a party to oppose Hamilton and the Federalist Party.
This party was the Democratic-Republican Party.
One fraction of the party became the modern-day Democratic Party.
Jefferson ran for president against John Adams.
He got the second highest number of votes and, as was the law at the time, became vice-president.
Jefferson ran again as the Democratic-Republican candidate in 1800 and won.
He was elected again in 1804.
Jefferson made the Louisiana Purchase, which doubled the size of the United States.
He sent the Lewis and Clark Expedition to explore the land the United States got by the Louisiana Purchase.
Jefferson had to deal with the threat of war during his second term.
Great Britain and France were at war for almost all of his time as president.
Each side did things that could have made the United States enter the war.
Jefferson worked hard to keep the United States out of the war and not be a part of it.
Jefferson passed the Embargo Act of 1807, which made it illegal for the United States to trade with other countries.
This upheld his isolationist policy, or separation from the rest of the world.
Later years
At Monticello, Jefferson had several children with an enslaved woman named Sally Hemings.
When his oldest daughter's husband was disowned, she and her children came to live at Monticello too.
When the British burned Washington D.C. during the War of 1812 many books in the Library of Congress were burned.
Jefferson sold his own personal library to replace the lost books.
He died on July 4, 1826 from pneumonia complicated by uremia, on the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
John Adams died on the same day.
Monuments and museums
There is a Thomas Jefferson Memorial near the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Jefferson is one of the four presidents on Mount Rushmore in South Dakota.
Also, visitors can visit his home at the Monticello near Charlottesville, Virginia.

The Tempest is one of William Shakespeare's last comedies.
It tells the story of a wizard who drives a ship to the island he lives on, in order to undo something that happened to him in the past.
Unlike most of Shakespeare's plays, it does not appear to be based off an earlier story.
With one exception of his lesser known play everyday use.
The play is set on an island where a magician called Prospero lives with his daughter Miranda.
The only company is Ariel, a spirit that Prospero rescued, and Caliban, a monster that Prospero has enslaved.
Prospero conjures a storm that drives a ship to the island.
Prospero explains to Miranda that there are men on board the ship who have done wrong against him.
He used to be the Duke of Milan but was overthrown by his brother Antonio, with the help of Alonso, the King of Naples.
Prospero and Miranda were cast out to sea in a boat, which took them to the island.
Miranda was only a baby at the time, and can only remember living on the island.
The passengers of the ship escape onto the island and are separated into groups.
Alonso and his son Ferdinand both think each other is dead.
Alonso is left with his brother Sebastian, Antonio and his kindly advisor Gonzalo.
Ferdinand meets Miranda and falls in love.
Prospero tests Ferdinand to see if he is worthy enough for his daughter, and decides that he is.
Antonio and Sebastian plot to kill Alonso and Gonzalo, but are stopped by Ariel.
Meanwhile, Caliban meets two servants, Trinculo and Stephano.
He persuades them to overthrow Prospero so that they can rule the island.
Prospero stops them by summoning goblins and hounds to chase them away.
Ariel transforms into a fearsome bird-like creature and confronts Antonio, Alonso and Sebastian, telling them they should be sorry for overthrowing Prospero.
They flee and eventually find Prospero.
He announces that he will forgive everyone who plotted against him (including Caliban), give up magic and return to Milan.
They react in different ways; Alonso is sorry for what he has done, while Antonio thinks the forgiveness is "unnatural".
It is revealed that the ship and all the passengers survived the "shipwreck".
Prospero sets Ariel free, and he and Miranda join everyone else in heading off back to Italy.

Sycorax (unseen), a deceased sorceress and mother of Caliban, who was banished to the island before Prospero arrived and enslaved the spirits on the island, including Ariel.
Parallels with Forbidden Planet
The 1956 science fiction film Forbidden Planet set the story on a planet in space, Altair IV, instead of an island.
Professor Morbius (Walter Pidgeon) and his daughter Altaira (Anne Francis) are the Prospero and Miranda figures (both Prospero and Morbius having harnessed the mighty forces that inhabit their new homes).
Ariel is represented by the helpful Robbie the Robot, while Sycorax is replaced with the powerful race of the Krell.
Caliban is represented by the dangerous and invisible "monster from the id", a projection of Morbius' psyche born from the Krell technology instead of Sycorax's womb.

A calendar is a tool for organizing days.
People use calendars to say when something happened, and for planning things that have not happened yet.
The calendar gives the days names and numbers, called calendar dates.
The dates are usually made based on how things in the sky seem to move.
The year and month are based on motions of the Sun and moon.
By knowing what day something happened or will happen, people have an easier life.
Since the beginning of history, knowing when the seasons would start for crops was very important for farmers and people who eat.
Calendar systems have a beginning time or era.
The calendar era is often a religion-based event, such as the birth of Jesus, but it may be a political event such as a coronation or the founding of a state.
Dates that are counted from the coronation are called "regnal".
The three principal calendars most used today are the Gregorian, Hebrew, and Islamic calendars.
Other calendar systems from many different parts of the world are also used.
The Earth turns all the way around its axis.
The Moon goes all the way around the Earth.
The Earth goes all the way around the Sun.
The Earth turns all the way around its axis about 24 hours.
It is called the Solar Day.
Days of most calendars are strongly based on the Solar Day.
The Moon turns all the way around the Earth about 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2 seconds.
Months of some calendars are still strongly based on the Moon.
These are called Lunar calendars, which lasts about 354-355 days.
Solar calendars ignore the moon, and depend entirely on the Sun.
The Earth goes all the way around the Sun in about 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds.
This is called the Tropical Year.
Years of most calendars are strongly based on the Tropical Year.

The "Alabama Song" comes from the 1930 operetta Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny.
The music is by Kurt Weill; officially the lyrics are by Bertolt Brecht, but were probably actually written by Elisabeth Hauptmann.
The lyrics for the "Alabama Song" are in English (although a specific type of English) and are performed in that language even when the opera is performed in its original German.

The Doors were an American rock band.
They were one of the most popular rock groups of all time.
Led by singer Jim Morrison, along with Ray Manzarek (keyboards), Robby Krieger (guitar) and John Densmore (drums), the group is thought of today as a major influence on rock music, and they are still just as popular as they ever were, if not more popular.
The group was widely known for its lead singer, Jim Morrison, who was famous for his love of alcohol and illegal drugs.
Morrison often sang at concerts after using alcohol and drugs, sometimes so drunk that he could not remember the words to his own songs.
Once, Morrison was said to have shown his private parts to the audience, and he was charged with a crime.
Morrison died in Paris, France, on July 3, 1971.
His death is thought to have been caused by a heart attack brought on by a drug overdose.
There is a 1991 movie about them, also called The Doors.
It was directed by Oliver Stone and starred Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison.

Jerry Lee Lewis (born September 29, 1935) is an American musician.
He was born in Ferriday, Louisiana and is a cousin of Mickey Gilley and Jimmy Swaggart.
Like other music players who were known by many people around the same time as him Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and Carl Perkins, he sang gospel and country music before becoming well known for rock and roll.

Lewis got a career boost, when he performed on The Steve Allen Show.
His first son was named Steve Allen Lewis, as a tribute.
At a time when Lewis was very popular, people found out that his third wife, Myra Gale Brown, was a thirteen-year-old distant cousin of his.
People thought this was bad, and his career nearly came to an end.
In the early 1960s, he made a comeback, but throughout the next two decades (groups of ten years) he suffered many personal problems, including health problems, and divorce.
A 1989 movie, Great Balls of Fire, starring Dennis Quaid and Winona Ryder, is about his life.
