...Dutch hierarchy has done nothing to implement the commission's report; at best, it may be added as an appendix to the next edition of the catechism. Possibly with the Dutch in mind, Pope Paul last week denounced Catholics, including priests and bishops who "choose the truths they like." In a voice cracking with emotion, he warned that "when it comes to its own teaching, the church is dogmatic and intransigent-at any cost...
Cache in the Shaft. Most original ol the art-nouveau architects was Spain's Antoni Gaudi, but recognition was slow in coming. Two decades ago, Art Historian Nikolaus Pevsner, in his Pioneers of Modern Design, relegated Gaudi to two footnotes in the appendix. Eight years later, Pevsner recanted, saying, "He is the only genius produced by art-nouveau." Gaudi, who urged that "we must not imitate or reproduce Gothic but continue it," based his studies on Catalan architecture and plant forms in nature. The results, scholars now recognize, intuitively anticipated many of today's shell structures, including...
Improbable Probability. To explain why, Judge Raymond Sullivan attached a four-page appendix to his opinion that carried the necessary math far beyond the relatively simple formula of probability.

To be perfectly candid about this matter, we believe Harvard has unique educational advantages to offer its Teaching Fellows. Even...
...book at human passions, at all the unfortunate sick who have been kept waiting in the reception room, who fell athwart the doctor's inhumane side -or thought they did-who are all too ready to believe that the surgeon's main purpose in removing an appendix is to collect a $1,500 fee. That side of medicine unfortunately exists. It is the only side revealed in this book...
