...Smooth. For hulking Gough (rhymes with cough) Whitlam, 56, the campaign was his second since taking over the Labor Party leadership in 1967. Smoother in garb and in gab than most of his country's politicians, Whitlam sometimes strikes down-to-earth Aussies as being too smooth by half. One of his own party members complains that he is a "distinctly middle-class intellectual with both a prickly personality and a captious turn of mind." He also has a renowned temper. In Parliament he once dumped a glass of water on a member of the Cabinet...
Harvard has a tradition of blowing more games over the course of the long season than teams with comparable talent. This is generally attributed to a lack of personal discipline on the part of Harvard's players and the usual drivel that I and others cough up about Harvard being such a diverse, distracting place.

Much of the "documentation," however, is either so vague or couched in such technical gobbledygook that it is all but useless in helping consumers to reach informed buying decisions...
...rehearsal Guy has prowled around, checking on the final details, encouraging the cast to keep it fresh and not to forget what they've perfected, concentrating on keeping his own voice in tune. Although ultimately confident, he continues to worry (Sore throats menace both Patty and him. She pops cough drops while he swigs from a bottle of honey.) When on Tuesday Guy stopped the opening chorus to change a lighting cue, Curt had turned to the girls and said. "Opening night we'll be up there and Guy'll go 'Wait!' and charge off to correct something." They...
