People Like Us - spoof on-location documentary (or mockumentary) written by John Morton, and starring Chris Langham as Roy Mallard, an inept interviewer. Now a BBC2 TV series, it was originally a radio show for BBC Radio 4. Following three series of 6 episodes each on Radio 4, only twelve TV episodes have been created so far (the same number as Fawlty Towers). Each episode features Roy Mallard interviewing a representative of a certain career/lifestyle in his inimitable manner, and follows their naive, humorous or satiric remarks to their illogical conclusion to great amusement. Even in the TV version Mallard is barely seen - he is always just out of sight and there are hints that he is distressingly ugly. The style of the show shares a lot in common with such programmes as Brass.
Not the Nine O'Clock News - are Rowan Atkinson, Pamela Stephenson, Mel Smith, Griff Rhys Jones, and the first series also starred Chris Langham. Atkinson, Smith and Rhys Jones all went on to further illustrious careers in comedy, Stephenson married Billy Connolly (who also made a guest appearance on the show) and became a psychiatrist, while Langham has recently been involved with People Like Us and Kiss Me Kate. The producer was John Lloyd, a mainstay in much of British Comedy, while the writers included Nigel Planer and Richard Curtis. Howard Goodall, writer of the Red Dwarf, Blackadder and Vicar of Dibley theme tunes (amongst others) was also involved musically. The show's name derived from its broadcast schedule -- it was transmitted on BBC Two at the same time as the main Nine O'Clock News went out.

John Wyclif - prevailing tendency was anticurial, while the other was curial in its preferences. Not less sharp was the separation over Nominalism and Realism (see Scholasticism). Wyclif was a Realist. A family whose seat was in the neighborhood of Wyclif's home-- Bernard Castle-- had founded Balliol College, Oxford to which Wyclif belonged, first as scholar, then as master. He attained the headship no later than 1360. Early Career When he was presented by the college (1361) with the parish of Fylingham in Lincolnshire, he had to give up the leadership of Balliol, though he could continue to live at Oxford; he is said to have had rooms in the buildings of Queen's. His university career followed the usual course. While as baccalaureate he busied himself with natural science and mathematics, as master he.

Ken Buchanan - but on January 29, 1970, he found his first stone on the boxing road when he challenged future world Jr. Welterweight champion Miguel Velazquez in Madrid, for the European Lightweight title. Buchanan lost a 15 round decision to Velazquez, but nevertheless, he continued his ascent towards the number one spot in the rankings by beating Tavarez in a rematch, Chris Fernandez and Brian Hudson, the latter of whom was beaten by a knockout in five in a defense of the British Lightweight title. On September of that year, Buchanan travelled to Puerto Rico, where he would meet Ismael Laguna, the world Lightweight champion, on September 26. Many experts thought that San Juan's warm weather would affect Buchanan, but he upset those who thought that way and beat Laguna by a 15.

His attention to detail is comparible to that of Chris Ware, although the two artists' styles are very different in other ways.

An affection for pigs in apparent in his work.

Kim Zmeskal - and 5th on the American team. With impressive scores of 9.912 on beam, 9.95 on vault, 9.9 on uneven bars, and a crowd pleasing 9.925 on floor, Kim rocketed into 12th place and into the all-around competition by finishing third among the American women. Her combined score of 39.687 for the night was the highest of any competitor, even Shannon Miller. Although reaching the all-around competition, Kim would falter during her floor exercise, stepping out of bounds. It would later be revealed that Kim was suffering from a stress fracture in her ankle before the Olympics began. Zmeskal however, did not use this as an excuse for her performance. Her dreams for a comeback in Atlanta during the 1996 Olympic Games would be dashed due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Krazy Kat - Arizona, Krazy Kat was strip unlike any seen in newspapers before or since. Public reaction at the time of its appearance was largely negative, due its iconoclastic refusal to conform to comic strip conventions and simple gags. But Hearst loved it, and it continued to appear in his papers throughout its run sometimes only by his direct order. It was also praised by intellectuals and critics, most notably Gilbert Seldes, who wrote a lengthy panegyric in The New Yorker calling the strip "the most satisfying work of art...in America today." In the 1920s, a stage musical based on Krazy Kat was even produced. Bill Watterson has mentioned Krazy Kat as one of his inspirations for his own cartoon series, Calvin and Hobbes. Herriman has also influenced Chris Ware, who has designed.

Oliveri left (and was replaced by Scott Reeder) just as the group signed to Elektra Records and released Welcome to Sky Valley (1994), another acclaimed album. Personal problems soon tore the group apart and Bjork left following a tour, replaced by Alfredo Hernandez. In 1995 they released ...And the Circus Leaves Town. Finally, Kyuss dissolved..
J. D. Salinger - the movie Field of Dreams. In the movie, the character is renamed and fictionalized. An unintended result of the lawsuit was that many details of Salinger's private life, including that he had written two novels and many stories but left them unpublished, became public in the form of court transcripts. He has been a life long student of Advaita Vedanta Hinduism. This has been described at length by Sam P. Ranchan in his book An Adventure in Vedanta: J.D. Salinger's the Glass Family (1990). A year-long affair in 1972 with eighteen year old aspiring writer Joyce Maynard also became the source of controversy when she put his letters to him up for auction. In 1999, Salinger released his first new novel in thirty-four years - Hapworth 16, 1924, first published in.
