The genius behind Accuform golf clubs
Like many successful middleaged businessmen, John Saksun spent too much time at work and didn't get enough exercise.Consequently, in the mid-1970s his doctor told him to take up a sport, perhaps golf, which would provide exercise and relieve some of the pressures of work.
Leonard Cohen
Leonard Cohen blew into Israel in a storm of controversy in 2009 and gave the most passionate and ardently welcomed concert I have ever seen.The Canadian singer had been criticized by Palestinian activists for including Tel Aviv as the penultimate stop on his lengthy world tour. Hoping to alleviate tensions, Cohen quickly announced he would give another concert in the Palestinian city of Ramallah. It was no use - the activists said he had to choose between the Ramallah and Tel Aviv gigs. He did; he chose the Israeli city.
