...Years" and "Yeah, It's That Easy," on the other hand, lack any such potential. G. Love can be an amusing and capable lyricist, although other aspects of his talent supercede his verbal stylings. Unfortunately, Yeah, It's That Easy seems to be a step backwards in this regard: the inside-joke content of the already-mentioned "I-76" and "Lay Down The Law" is one indication, while the trite societal criticism of "200 Years" and "Yeah, It's That Easy" is another. "200 Years" (referring to the U.S. bicentennial) starts off with a chanted refrain of "the emperor wears...
...these laws that Dahl is unlikely to win the reparations he is seeking for broken promises. "Even if McNutt did say what he is alleged to have said in the lawsuit," explains Stephen Munzer, a law professor at University of California, Los Angeles, "I doubt the court would regard this as an enforceable promise." McNutt may wind up vindicated, but his reputation in Duluth is shredded. Sentiment in this small industrial city lies with the woman scorned.

Because it was a start-up, Griffin was able to hire without regard to seniority. "If you want high expectations for students," she now says, "you have to have high expectations for your teachers...
Goodman says whole language has two bases: "the scientific and the humanistic," and the humanistic strand is an important reason for its appeal. With whole language, reading is considered an organic process, the dignity of teachers is paramount, and they regard their students as collaborators. These attitudes sit firmly within the tradition of progressive education, and it is tempting to think that the humanism came first and the science later. Goodman reacts to that speculation with a shrug and a smile. "I like people," he says. "And I'm very happy that my research confirms my prejudices...
