Many alternative rockers have tried as well to broaden the demographic reach of their music to be more inclusive. The annual traveling rock carnival Lollapalooza, which helps bring regional acts to a national audience, has made a point of including rap acts such as Arrested Development and Ice Cube. "A lot of white kids will not go to a black show," says Ted Gardener, producer of Lollapalooza. "They'll buy the records, but they won't go see the band. They're afraid they might get killed. And some black kids feel the same way about white shows. Our attempt...
...possible, however, said Spokesman Larry Speakes, that another submarine might be decommissioned when the cruise missiles put the U.S. over the SALT II limit.

But even the primary practitioner of modern golf couldn't overcome Harrington's ability to fuse flawless technique with sunny implacability. Sports psychologist Bob Rotella - who reportedly stayed in Harrington's house this whole week of the Open - says the key to golf is to enjoy...
...youths in Sydney with him are ex-prisoners made good. The World Youth Day experience has made him want to work even harder. "While I'm here, I can't just do sightseeing," he says. "I have a vision. I must go back and do something powerful for others, reach out to the young people who are really down. My little community will be expecting something great from me." If making the trip to Sydney took a miracle for pilgrims like Mekendu and Nyalusi, it might create some miracles back home as well...
