Yale opened the scoring early, when Eli senior forward Kevin Maher-a bona fide All-America candidate-rammed home a right-football half volley at 7:43 from a heading cross that goalkeeper Matt Ginsburg mishandled...
Prisons did not work out as planned. Right now in most states there are individual prisons, and whole prison systems, that courts have condemned. Insurrections and slaughter shock everyone and surprise nobody. There was no bona fide riot among San Quentin's 2,900 inmates last year, yet seven prisoners were murdered, and at least 54 others were stabbed, clubbed or beaten, all in the normal course of prison life...
There is something about emotionally charged political movements: until they mobilize enormous crowds of adherents in one place on one day, they do not feel quite bona fide.

In Montpelier, the nation's smallest state capital, Nona Estrin says, "We've finished watching the snow melt, and we are about to begin watching the mud dry. Both are bona fide full-time activities. You may have a full-time job, but watching spring come is the romance in your life." An administrator with the state senior citizens program, she has been up since 5 a.m.: "I don't want to miss a moment, there is so much going on at this time of year...
