The Airbus A380 is a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine jet airliner manufactured by the European aircraft company Airbus. It is the world's largest passenger airliner, and the airports at which it operates have upgraded facilities to accommodate it. It was initially named Airbus A3XX and designed to challenge Boeing's monopoly in the large-aircraft market. The A380 made its first flight on 27 April 2005 and entered commercial service in October 2007 with Singapore Airlines.
The A380's upper deck extends along the entire length of the fuselage, with a width equivalent to a wide-body aircraft. This gives the A380-800's cabin 550 square metres (5,920 sq ft) of usable floor space, 40% more than the next largest airliner, the Boeing 747-8, and provides seating for 525 people in a typical three-class configuration or up to 853 people in an all-economy class configuration. The A380-800 has a design range of 8,500 nautical miles (15,700 km), sufficient to fly nonstop from Dallas, USA to Sydney, Australia, and a cruising speed of Mach 0.85 (about 900 km/h, 560 mph or 490 kn at cruising altitude).

The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews is one of the oldest and most prestigious golf clubs in the world (the oldest possibly being The Royal Burgess Golfing Society of Edinburgh at Barnton, Edinburgh, instituted 1735). It is based in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland, and is regarded as the worldwide "Home of Golf". Formerly, it was also one of the governing authorities of the game, but in 2004 this role was handed over to a newly formed group of companies, collectively known as The R&A.
The organisation was founded in 1754 as the Society of St Andrews Golfers, a local golf club playing at St Andrews Links, but quickly grew in importance. In 1834, King William IV became its patron and the club became known under its present name. In 1897, the Society codified the rules of golf, and, gradually over the next 30 years, was invited to take control of the running of golf tournaments at other courses.
The Royal and Ancient Golf Club (but not The R&A) had a men-only membership policy; in 2012, former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown called on the club to abandon this in favour of a non-discriminatory policy, as did the Vice-Chancellor of the University of St Andrews, Louise Richardson.
als wirnoch klenine scheisser warren,
da wussten wir nicht viel,
doch wir haben schon gern r.a.f.
und polizei gespielt.
ich wollte nie ein bulle sein,
denn bullen sind nurdreck!
ich war viel lieber terrorist
und bombte alles weg.
und hab ich in die schulbank einen raf-stern reingekratzt,
ist unser fettes rektorschewin vor wut dann fast geplatzt.
rote armee franktion-ihr wart ein geiler haufen,
rote armee franktion-mit euch ist was gelaufen,
rote armee franktion-ich fand euch immer spitze,
leider war ich noch zu klein,
um bereits bei euch dabei zu sein,
doch mein herz schlug damals schon fuer die rote armee fraktion.
die raf hat leider nur versaeumt,
es zu erklaeren, wovon sie traeumt,
die theorie war intellektuell und kompliziertder kleine mann,
fuer den sie kaempfte,
hatte das nicht ganz kapiert,
dann konnte sie der staat ganz leicht alsvolksfeind isolieren.
die bonzen haben sich eingeschissen,
hat man raf gesagt,
sie war ihr albtraum und der hat sie jede nacht gejact rote aree franktion-ir wart...
fuer die rote-armee franktion die r.a.f.-bombe!
