Amerigo Vespucci (born March 9, 1454 in Florence; died February 22, 1512 in Seville) is an entrepreneur and Explorer, member of the Spanish and Portuguese expeditions to the New world. This part of the world, America, was named after him. From a family of businessman, received an excellent education at home, he studied mathematics and astronomy. After his father's death in 1478, he served in the banking house of Medici, from 1493 — the agent of this house in Seville and Cadiz. With 1495 engaged in the supply and training of overseas expeditions for the purpose of disembarkation of the colonists. 1500 entered the service in Portugal. May 31, in 1501 the Portuguese expedition departed in search of the mythical Strait Cattigara, which, according to Ptolemy, is from Eastern Asia to India. And the open of the earth by Columbus was considered the Eastern edge of Asia. The expedition headed for the South Atlantic. Vespucci was the first European scientist, who explored the coast of Brazil and the Gulf of La Plata. The nature and lifestyle of the local population convinced him that this was not Asia but a new world. On July 22, 1502, the expedition returned to Lisbon. Immediately on his return, Vespucci wrote to the Duke of Medici a letter describing the expedition. It ended with the assumption that the new lands in the West is a special mainland (terra firma lat.). In 1504, in Florence, came essay on astronomy under the title "Mundus Novus", a New Light, written on behalf of Vespucci. The authorship of this composition is disputed, it contains quite boastful passages, the style is different from that of letters 1502. However, the name "New Light" caught on, and then in honor of Amerigo cartographers named the name "Americus," the continent of this "New world". Amerigo Vespucci, in 1508 took Spanish citizenship until his death he filled the post of chief pilot of Spain.

22-hour workday New York, once the largest city in the world, is now only the ninth or tenth largest. Of its over seven million people, 52 per cent are white, 24 per cent black, 20 per cent Hispanic, and 4 per cent «other». As a Korean immigrant, Lee Chang-Soon is one of the «others». Together with his wife and his mother-in-law, Mr Lee runs a fruit and vegetable store on Manhattan's Upper East Side. His workday starts at midnight when he drives his truck to the fruit and vegetable market in the Bronx. It ends at 10 p.m. when he locks the door of his store and goes home with his wife. Here's part of our reporter's conversation with Lee Chang-Soon. Reporter: Mr Lee, you're at work when the rest of us are sleeping, and you're still working when we're watching TV in the evening. Mr Lee: Yes, in our kind of business you have to work long hours. I spend five hours at the market every night, and the store's open from 8 a.m. to p.m. People here want a wide choice of fruit and vegetables; every­thing must be fresh and clean - and cheap! Reporter: Your wife's cleaning lettuce right now and you're sorting green peas Mr Lee: Yes. We have to be very quick. There are 15 boxes of strawberries and a lot of asparagus and cauliflower waiting. There's always work to do. Reporter: When do you sleep? Mr Lee: Well, when I get back from the market - at about six o’clock in the morning - my wife and I first unload and store everything. That takes us about two hours. After that I sleep for an hour or so. And I get a bit of sleep in the evening after work ... Reporter: ... before you leave for the market again at midnight. Life's pretty hard for you and your family, Mr Lee. Mr Lee: Yes - but that's the way it is. We want to get on. We're not complain­ing.
