Famous in the Last Century: Famous in the Last Century is the twenty-fourth studio album by the British rock band Status Quo, released in 2000 to largely negative reviews.  According to the band's autobiography, the idea to record it came from their manager David Walker, who said that they should celebrate the millennium with an album containing twenty of their favourite hits from the last century.  To quote leader Francis Rossi, 'Or, put another way, another bloody covers album!  We went along with it, as usual, but inside I felt like a fraud...for me it was the worst Quo album there had ever been - or ever will be!' [1]

Tom Rowe (musician): Thomas J. "Tom" Rowe (November 4, 1950, Lewiston, Maine – January 17, 2004, Portland, Maine) was the bass player and a singer in the folk trios Schooner Fare and Turkey Hollow.  He was noted for playing a model XL2 Steinberger bass guitar.  Born to Charles "Bud" Rowe, and his wife, Thoma, he had two brothers named Russ and Chuck, and a sister named Shirley.  He went to school in Auburn, Maine and graduated from Edward Little High School as part of the class of 1969.  He majored in Music Education at Gorham State College, now the University of Southern Maine, though never graduated.  In 1975, Rowe joined the Maine folk/rock group Devonsquare.  Three months after joining, the band split into two separate groups, and he went along with Steve and Chuck Romanoff, to form Schooner Fare.  As part of the band, Tom sang and played electric bass, pennywhistle, and sometimes guitar.

Alpine Ironman: The Alpine Ironman was first held on 21 October 1980 in New Zealand.  It was a three-day race featuring skiing, trail running and kayaking.  The idea for the event came from Robin Judkins, who became the race's director, and his friend and business partner Peter Tocker; they were running Motatapu Canoes (later called the Outdoor Adventure Centre) in Wanaka.  Judkins was skiing with the general manager of Radio Otago and asked for a job as a radio announcer.  A few days later, Judkins was asked to do a voice test by talking about his idea for the Alpine Ironman.  He made up a story as he went along, including that Peter Hillary would be competing, and that the first prize would be a trip around the world.  When the radio station told him that they wanted to broadcast this recording, Judkins was dumbfounded: "You're joking."  They didn't, and Judkins went to Christchurch to find a sponsor, and organised the event within five weeks.

Ludichrist: Ludichrist is an American band formed in 1984 in Long Island New York.

Ludichrist is considered to be one of the crossover movement's bigger bands along with D.R.I..  Drummer Dave Miranda saw his band as crossing into both, punk and metal without firmly belonging into either camp, and claims that the band was influenced by bands around them such as Crumbsuckers and Agnostic Front.  The band broke up after their second full-length album, and lead vocalist Tommy Christ and guitarist Glen Cummings went on to form Scatterbrain.

Circumbaikal Highway: The Circumbaikal Highway (Around Baikal Highway, Round Baikal Highway, Russian: Кругобайкальский тракт, Krugabaikalsky Trakt ) was part of the Main Siberian Postal Highway (главный сибирский почтовый тракт).  It started from Irkutsk, went along the Irkut River, further southwards around Lake Baikal (hence the name) to the village of Kultushnoye (now Kultuk).  At Kultushnoye the road turned south and went into Mongolia.  The initial run of the road (up to Kutlushnoye, 93 verst (~99 km)) was constructed during 1796-1801.  In 1803 it was decided to modernize and extend the road.  The extension from Kutlushnoye to Posolsky Monastery was started in 1867.  The latter stretch is associated with the uprising of Polish political exiles in Siberia of 1866.
