I have never heard of "Enrique Peña NIETO, Mexican president beginning in 2012." I should kep up on my North American heads of state!

"Hi, I'm EVAN Rachel Wood, and you may have seen me in The Wrestler and then forgotten about my existence."
Another thing I don't know much about is fashion, and designer RUDI Gernreich is no exception. I see from his article that he enjoyed designing clothes for women that showed off their boobs.
Clifford ODETS, of whom I was only barely aware, wrote many plays, including the clue "Golden Boy" which is unknown to me, but I am a fan of his movie screenplay Sweet Smell of Success.
