...receive an at-large bid to the Nationals. Cortland defeated UMass, which received a bid, at the Easterns. According to tournament committee chairman and Colorado College coach Steve Paul, Cortland simply failed to request a bid, a procedure it should have known about from the AIAW Soccer Coaches Manual. Cortland coach Ron Hansen, claiming that Cortland never received any information concerning the tournament bids or even a coaches manual, appealed the tournament committee's exclusion of the Red Dragons from the Nationals on Tuesday, the day after the committee announced the seeds. Because a three-member AIAW Appeals Board rejected...
...Brooklyn School District 23, traditionally the lowest-achieving of all New York City districts in reading, a prickly Follow Through class is doing well. Eight children sit in a reading group in Sadie Martin's first-grade classroom. Martin holds up a manual with words printed in DlSTAR's script. Silent letters are written smaller than the rest.

There a six-hour search turned up a cache of weapons and explosives, a manual on making bombs and hand-drawn floor plans of six New York City police stations. In a Bronx apartment, state and federal investigators found a similar arsenal and diagrams, plus a newspaper dated one day after the robbery-indicating that someone had been there since the shootout.

High-speed, electric dishwashers are hardly the cause for any luddite outrage, their encroachment onto the tasks of human hands is actually minimal, more a certification and final sterilization than the appropriation of the dishwasher's manual efforts...
...political activism but the loss of discipline and intellectual rigor that set in during the experimental '60s. At that time, many younger Jesuits were influenced as much by the radical politics of Antiwar Activist Father Daniel Berrigan as they were by the society's venerable manual, Spiritual Exercises. As Catholic Historian James Hitchcock of St. Louis University sees it, a "self-probing, inward-looking, almost narcissistic" mentality has crept into the order today. Liberals contend that they are only trying to do what Jesuits have always done: make the church and the teachings of Christ more relevant...
