This is not at all clear. Such a position irresponsibly overlooks the distinct possibility that the gay student may indeed be guilty of provoking the incident by sexually harassing the other man. To be sure, had the incident involved a man stroking a woman's behind after she had repeatedly told him to go away, there would have been few "progressively-minded" supporters for the man--even had the woman's friends pushed the man around, as happened at Mather...
...silent watchers, his chilly crags and moonstruck ships. But Philipp Otto Runge? Carl Gustav Carus? Franz Pforr and Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld? Johann Overbeck? Franz Horny or Adrian Zingg? Not household names, exactly -- yet interesting and sometimes remarkable artists, all the same. Hence the Morgan's show fills a distinct gap. None of the drawings and watercolors in it have been seen in America before; they are all lent from two great collections in the German Democratic Republic, the Nationalgalerie in East Berlin and the Kupferstich- Kabinett in Dresden...
...they mutter, and I haven't yet found the time to get through the last two -- or is it three? Guilt breeds resentment, which in turn fosters rationalization.

And this impression has led to a distinct tilt in contemporary taste and criticism toward "bleeders," those who rasp and file their words meticulously before issuing slim volumes at discreet intervals...
JOHN Ducey, as the hapless, would-be champ, is clearly the driving force behind the show. He plays Pendleton with a goofy, aw-shucks grin reminiscent of Warren Beatty's but adds the distinct nuance of a die-hard Bruins fan. Draped in a baggy sweatsuit and perpetually bouncing on the toes of his high-top sneakers, Ducey's Pendleton doesn't quite pull off the New Jersey punk of the script, but his portrayal of the native Boston variety is equally winning. There's something about a really thick Boston accent, liberally sprinkled with words like "dame...
Whether or not the court agrees to hear this particular case, Lee is not alone in thinking that it may be presently disposed to overrule Roe. "I think there's a very distinct possibility that it will -- this term," said Justice Harry Blackmun in September. According to the man who wrote the embattled decision, "you can count the votes." Four Justices -- William Rehnquist, Antonin Scalia, Sandra Day O'Connor and Byron White -- are believed to be against Roe. Speculation centers on the possible fifth and deciding vote, that of the newest Justice, Anthony Kennedy. Kennedy's record is conservative...
