Brown performed remarkably well, but the Brains may not be able to match the aquamen's depth in crucial events such as the 400-yd, individual medley and the 200-yd. Freestyle and pose a bona fide threat to the Crimson's throne...
...compromise was for outside groups to arrange debates between major-party candidates, which were then covered by the networks as "bona fide news events," a designation that placed them outside the equal-time requirement. Notable examples: the televised debates between Ronald Reagan and President Jimmy Carter in 1980 and between Carter and President Gerald Ford in 1976, which were sponsored by the League of Women Voters. Now network or station-sponsored debates will themselves be considered news events...

The authentic student speakers sound like actors, their voices clear and well-enunciated...
...almost right, since victims cannot get their insurance money unless they file a police report. But when statisticians turn to private violence, the numbers become iffy, approximate in the extreme.

A Justice Department survey counted 178,000 rapes during 1981, but for every woman...
...United States claim the right to plot against a national government? The answer can only by none. To argue otherwise is to make tangential U.S. security interests superior to the direct concerns of a country's inhabitants. While the United States may conceivably be justified in backing a bona fide popular insurgency, there is no excuse for advancing American concerns abroad in the name of a small group of disgruntled expatriates--and certainly none for the U.S. itself masterminding such coups...
