A costumed reveler at a Captain Morgan party celebrates the rum named after the 17th century privateer. 

We put them in our cocktails, but how well do we know them? 

Here's some biographical detail on the men behind your favorite tipples: 

1. Captain Morgan 

The Captain wasn't always just the choice of sorority girls looking to blend spiced rum with Diet Coke; in the 17th century he was a feared privateer. 

Not only did the Welsh pirate marry his own cousin, he ran risky missions for the governor of Jamaica, including capturing some Spanish prisoners in Cuba and sacking Port-au-Prince in Haiti. 

He then plundered the Cuban coast before holding for ransom the entire city of Portobelo, Panama. 

He later looted and burned Panama City, but his pillaging career came to an end when Spain and England signed a peace treaty in 1671. 

Instead of getting in trouble for his high-seas antics, Morgan received knighthood and became the lieutenant governor of Jamaica. Mental Floss: 5 drinking stories that put yours to shame 

2. Johnnie Walker 

Walker, the name behind the world's most popular brand of Scotch whisky, was born in 1805 in Ayrshire, Scotland. 

When his father died in 1819, Johnnie inherited a trust of a little over 400 pounds, which the trustees invested in a grocery store. 

Walker became a very successful grocer in the town of Kilmarnock and even sold a whisky, Walker's Kilmarnock Whisky.  1. Who is Captain Morgan's rum named after?

input: Make use of the article to answer the questions. PANAMA CITY, Panama (CNN) -- Ricardo Martinelli, the multimillionaire owner of a supermarket chain, was inaugurated as president of Panama on Wednesday. 

Ricardo Martinelli is a pro-business conservative who defeated a candidate from the ruling center-left party. 

National Assembly President Jose Luis Varela performed the swearing-in and placed the presidential sash on Martinelli, a pro-business conservative who defeated a candidate from the ruling center-left party in May. 

The citizens of Panama "want things to be done differently," Varela said at the inauguration. "An attitude of change starts today." 

In his first speech as president, Martinelli promised a smaller government budget but raises for public workers. 

Public safety, an issue that the outgoing administration of Martin Torrijos struggled to maintain, will be a priority, Martinelli said. 

"Our prisons will be rehabilitation centers, not schools for criminals," he said. 

Panama will also work with Mexico and Colombia to combat drug trafficking in the region, Martinelli said. 

Among the dignitaries at the inauguration was deposed Honduran President Jose Manuel Zelaya, who was ousted in a military-led coup Sunday. The Organization of American States has condemned the coup, and Zelaya has continued to carry out his presidential duties. 

The son of Italian immigrants, Martinelli, 57, is a self-made businessman who is chairman of the Super 99 supermarket chain, one of the largest private companies in Panama. 

The U.S.-educated president previously served as minister and chairman of the board of directors of the Panama Canal Authority and formerly was director of social security for Panama, according to his Web site.  1. In which country does this story take place?

input: Make use of the article to answer the questions. Paris (CNN) -- Yasser Arafat's widow on Tuesday questioned the findings of French scientists that the Palestinian leader did not die from radioactive polonium poisoning but rather from natural causes. 

The conclusion, leaked to multiple French media agencies and Reuters, contradicts the findings of Swiss forensic scientists who concluded last month that samples taken from Arafat's exhumed body were consistent with polonium-210 exposure but did not definitely prove that he was poisoned. 

"I'm convinced there is something wrong, and he did not die from a natural death," Suha Arafat said at a news conference in Paris. 

She said she is requesting that the Swiss findings be made available to French authorities investigating her husband's death. She said the medical experts in Switzerland and France came from different medical fields. 

"I don't doubt them. But they are different skills. They are different types of medicines," she said. 

The French findings will do little to quell the rumors that Arafat was poisoned. 

Arafat died at age 75 at a Paris military hospital in November 2004 after he had a brain hemorrhage and slipped into a coma. Palestinian officials said in the days before his death that Arafat had a blood disorder -- though they ruled out leukemia -- and that he had digestive problems. 

Rumors of poisoning circulated at the time, but Palestinian officials denied them. 

Two weeks after Arafat's death, his nephew said medical records showed no cause of death. Nasser al-Kidwa, who was the Palestinian observer to the United Nations, said toxicology tests showed "no known poison," though he refused to exclude the possibility that poison caused his uncle's death.  1.
