...lecturer at a jerk water Maryland college. As the new girl in the book, she commands initial attention and then numbed disbelief. It is not just her Olympian long-windedness that is troubling, but the things she writes. She describes sex with her lover (another correspondent): " 'Appen I enjoy it (as, despite all and faute de mieux, I sometimes do), bully for me; 'appen I don't, it up wi' me knees and nightie anyroad, and to't till I'm proper ploughed and seeded." This language has nothing to do with Lady Amherst...
Coach MacAusland cites Kellogg's leadership as one of the main reasons the team has the spirit it does. "Elaine is a casual and relaxed leader which allows team members to be more comfortable among themselves and enjoy the game more," MacAusland says...
...would fail without firm local support. In my numerous trips to the area in recent months. I have been struck by the degree of support for and clear understanding of the occupation by the local population--particularly those closest to the plant.

A handsome, blue-eyed bachelor, he is of Swedish-Irish descent, and both dour and mischievous strains can be detected in his designs...
...surest way to enjoy Yanks is to come to it with precisely the right expectations. This film is so lavish, so long (2 hr. 20 min.) and so overstuffed with talent that one at first expects an epic of Homeric proportions. As it gradually turns out, Director John Schlesinger has a trifle up his sleeve, not a bombshell: Yanks is nothing more and nothing less than an extravagant soap opera about star-crossed lovers on the British home front during World War II. The results are often entertaining, but only for audiences who are prepared to open their tear ducts...
