- Juan Manuel Mata García (born 28 April 1988) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Premier League club Manchester United and the Spain national team. He mostly plays as a central attacking midfielder, but he can also play on the wing.
A graduate of Real Madrid's youth academy, Mata played for Real Madrid Castilla in 2006-07, before joining Valencia in the summer of 2007. He became an integral part of the club's midfield, making 174 appearances over the course of four seasons. In August 2011, Mata signed for English club Chelsea of the Premier League for a fee believed to be in the region of EUR28 million, and in his debut season was part of the team that won the UEFA Champions League and the FA Cup. The following year, Chelsea won the UEFA Europa League, making Mata and teammate Fernando Torres the first players to hold the Champions League, Europa League, World Cup, and the European Championships simultaneously. After falling out of favour at Chelsea under José Mourinho, Mata was sold to Manchester United in January 2014, for a fee of £37.1 million.
Mata is a Spanish international, having represented Spain at under-16, under-17, under-19, under-20, under-21, Olympic and senior levels. He played for the under-20 side in the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup. In June 2009, Mata played at the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup, his first senior tournament. On 9 September 2009, Mata scored his first goal for the senior team, against Estonia, securing the nation a place at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, and was part of Spain's World Cup-winning squad. In 2011, he went back to playing in the under-21 side, helping Spain win the 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship in Denmark. He won the Golden Player award and was part of the Team of the Tournament. Mata returned to the senior squad for UEFA Euro 2012 and, after coming on as a substitute, scored Spain's fourth goal in the final as Spain defeated Italy 4-0 to retain their title as champions of Europe. - Actor

Marisol Carnicero was born in Berlangas de Roa, a small town in the province of Burgos, Spain.
She began her career in television and film production while still very young, as a production secretary for RadioTelevisión Española, the state television network. (Until the introduction of private television in Spain in 1990, RTVE was the only television network.)
Soon Marisol was working for one of the network's star producer-directors, Narciso Ibáñez Serrador, and she made the transition to feature films on his film, "La Residencia". After working in continuity and as assistant director, she decided on production management. In 1977, she became Spain's first female production manager on "Vámonos, Bárbara", directed by Cecilia Bartolomé, followed by Luis García Berlanga's film "La Escopeta Nacional" also shot in 1977.
Although she worked for many different directors and production companies throughout her career, she considers the era when Alfredo Matas produced scripts written by Rafael Azcona and directed by Luis García Berlanga to have been a sort of Golden Age of Spanish cinema. ("La Escopeta Nacional", "Patrimonio Nacional", "La Vaquilla", for example.) Matas also felt the need for a Spanish Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for film professionals, and Carnicero was both coordinator as well as a founding member of the Academia de las Artes y las Ciencias Cinematográficas de España, established on January 8, 1986.
Marisol Carnicero is still active as a production manager. Her latest feature film is "Maktub" (2011), written and directed by Paco Arango, now in production.
On a personal note, she shared her life with producer Tadeo Villalba Rodríguez for thirty-five years until his death in December 2009. They collaborated on specific movie projects on few occasions, as they preferred to keep matters of the heart separate from matters of the Big Screen. But both the Academy and the ECAM (Madrid School of Cinematography and the Audiovisual), where Carnicero taught production for 12 years, were joint adventures in the development and future of the Spanish film industry. Marisol says she learned almost as much about film from Tedy as she did about human beings.- Actress
