...Springfield panned Gold. Joel Goldson to be exact, a 5 ft. 10 in. guard, shooting from the top of the key and the baseline kept arching the ball into the basket so gracefully that one had to wonder if the ghost of Dr. Jimmy Naismith was pulling strings...
What has happened is that an exact scientific notion, "heritability," has, through ignorance or design, been perverted in popular media, and wholly unjustified conclusions have been drawn from this perversion by mystification, arbitrary redefinition of terms and misdirection of attention.

Most important, there are no adequate models that might foretell how the U.S. economy will react to the first energy scarcity in its history. Explains Alan Greenspan, a consultant...
...sexual score. Marie (Lind say Grouse) and Sheila (Carole Monfer-dini) are a pair of lazily provocative talk-teasers who would have movie-mag fantasies of love if they were quite up to reading movie mags. Think of the Snopeses as swinging singles and you will get a fairly exact impression of the mentalities involved...
