...university research projects. Organizations such as the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Endowment for the Humanities traditionally award many research grants to Harvard. Harvard works both through these organizations and Congressional committees responsible for authorization of grants and appropriation of federal money. Walter Dodd of the National Science Foundation says the foundation itself is prohibited from lobbying Congress for support of the grants it approves. Harvard faculty members, he says, play an important role by testifying at Congressional committees. A spokesman for the National Endowment for the Humanities notes that faculty testimony helps keep...
Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd (Henderson Forsythe) puts up a doughty fight against the miscreants of reform, and if pithy Southwestern scatology could carry the day he might conceivably have saved the ladies of the evening.

A father holds his little girl's hand: "What did you learn in school today?" She shows him: an over-the-shoulder judo throw...
...author. But, yes, buried in the middle of the third paragraph is the real reason for the note: she has chosen not to discuss the one episode in her 85 years that everyone will be looking for. There is nothing about her notorious lapse into amnesia in 1926, and Dodd, Mead might well have tried to head off a great deal of fruitless inquiry. Dame Agatha's first husband had asked her for a divorce so that he could marry a younger woman. This was unthinkable, and to her unending regret, she did the unthinkable in return. Abandoning...
