<p>Zd: </p> <hr /> <div>Beatnik is a term for an anti-materialistic culture of people in the late 1950s analogous to hippies a decade later. The term was coined by Herb Caen on April 2, 1958 in an article in the San Francisco Chronicle. He modified an earlier, more positive term [[Beat Generation]] and added the -nik suffix from [[Sputnik]], which had launched in the prior six months.</div>

<p>Zd: </p> <hr /> <div>'''San Francisco''' is a [[liberal]] city in [[California]] and is generally considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It has a higher proportion of [[homosexual]]s than any other city in the [[United States]]{{Fact|date=March 2007}}, and in 2004, its mayor, [[Gavin Newsom]], attempted to perform [[same-sex marriage]]s despite the practice being explicitly illegal under California law. Not surprisingly, the marriages were nullified by the courts shortly thereafter. <br /> <br /> San Francisco is known for its computer industry and has been one of the most economically strong cities of the last twenty years.<br /> <br /> Famous San Francisco landmarks include the [[Golden Gate Bridge]] and [[Alcatraz Island]].</div>
