- Mark Hensby -- Australian Mark Hensby
On the holes where Goosen did not hole anything exceptional, then Hensby putted badly. In the morning the Australian missed from four feet on the 9th, three feet on the 10th, five feet on the 11th and six feet on the 16th. If the first two matches of Goosen, the top seed, had gone the full distance he would have played 72 holes. In fact, he has played 54 and so fatigue should not be a factor in his semi-final today against Michael Campbell, who came from four down to beat Steve Elkington at the 37th. - David Letterman -- Oprah Winfrey
Talk show host David Letterman was the much heralded guest Monday on the season premiere of "The Oprah Winfrey Show." He brought along one of his trademark Top 10 lists, titled "Top 10 Reasons I Love Oprah." - Ticketmaster -- Events
A Ticketmaster ticket centre is a retail location, where you can go in person and buy your tickets. Its staff members use the Ticketmaster system to show you seating plans of the venue and event information, including venue directions and facilities available on-site. They ... use the system to print tickets out. - Dead Kennedys -- Bands
In the late 70s and throughout the 1980s, Dead Kennedys were the textbook definition of a socially-conscious punk rock band. They railed against the injustice of the Reagan administration, the emptiness and cruelty in America’s social system and its popular culture, and they let the world know that great success could be had on your own terms without accepting the help of a major corporation. Dead Kennedys ... inspired a strain of activism in the punk rock scene. Fans in the 1980s couldn’t have imagined that one day this legendary band would be caught up in a dispute that seemed more suitable for the corporate rock bands they mercilessly lampooned during their storied “Pull My Strings” performance (or maybe a professional wrestling match). This stuff wasn’t supposed to happen in the independent world of punk rock, but it does, and it did. - The Cranberries
The band The Cranberries was formed by two brothers called Noel, and Mike hogan in 1990. The original name used to be The Cranberry Saw Us. They had a lead singer name Niall Quinn and a drummer called Fergal Lawler, but when their lead singer left the group the band was force audition for a new lead singer. The person who got the spot was a friend of the lead singer's girlfriend Dolores O'Riordan. She was an amazing lyric writer, that after the band handed her an demo of a melody she came up with lyrics fo the song the next day. That one song called "Linger" later on became one of the bands greatest hits. - Kazan -- Hollywood Left
Kazan had briefly been a member of the Communist Party in his youth, when working as part of a theater troupe, the Group Theater, in the 1930s. At the time, the Group Theater included several theater professionals who had Communist or other left-wing sympathies. A committed Socialist, Kazan felt betrayed by Stalin's atrocities and the ideological rigidity of Communists in general. He was personally offended when Party functionaries tried to intervene in the artistic decisions of his theater group. - Emma Goldman -- Alexander Berkman
A year later Emma Goldman was a delegate to an Anarchist conference in New York. She was elected to the Executive Committee, but later with drew because of differences of opinion regarding tactical matters. The ideas of the German-speaking Anarchists had at that time not yet become clarified. Some still believed in parliamentary methods, the great majority being adherents of strong centralism. These differences of opinion in regard to tactics led, in 1891, to a breach with John Most. Emma Goldman, Alexander Berkman, and other comrades joined the group Autonomy, in which Joseph Peukert, Otto Rinke, and Claus Timmermann played an active part. - Pixies -- Bands
Combining jagged, roaring guitars and stop-start dynamics with melodic pop hooks, intertwining male-female harmonies and evocative, cryptic lyrics, the Pixies were one of the most influential American alternative rock bands of the late '80s. The Pixies weren't accomplished musicians -- Black Francis wailed and bashed out chords while Joey Santiago's lead guitar squealed out spirals of noise. But the band were inventive, rabid rock fans that turned conventions inside out, melding punk and indie guitar rock, classic pop, surf rock, and stadium-sized riffs with singer/guitarist Black Francis' bizarre, fragmented lyrics about space, religion, sex, mutilation, and pop culture; while the meaning of his lyrics may have been impenetrable, the music was direct and forceful. The Pixies' busy, brief songs, extreme dynamics, and subversion of pop song structures proved one of the touchstones of '90s alternative rock. From grunge to Britpop, the Pixies' shadow loomed large -- it's hard to imagine Nirvana without the Pixies' signature stop-start dynamics and lurching, noisy guitar solos. While the Pixies were touted as the band to bring indie rock into the mainstream, they simply laid the groundwork for the alternative explosion of the early '90s. - Charles Koch -- Koch Industries
Charles Koch may very well be the most successful businessman you've never heard of. Under his leadership, Koch Industries has become a dynamic and diverse enterprise that Forbes called "the world's largest private company.” - Hugh Griffith
