Exclamation Points. To a less highly motivated householder, the Hayden style of domesticity might seem a bit too emphatic to be real. A fair share of the emphasis comes from Bill Hayden, who is just as domestically inclined as his wife and enthusiastically endorses her own relish for the role: "I don't think of her as a writer, I think of her as my wife and the mother of my children...
...torrent of action on education and the reminiscence about it that pour from the White House is forceful evidence that its occupant recalls his own school days with singular relish and vividness.

...bishops to cancel speaking engagements by Swiss Theologian Hans Kung. More recently, he has advised U.S. church authorities to hush some outspoken lay Catholic journalists, notably Freelance Writer Michael Novak (A New Generation, The Open Church), a doctoral student at Harvard. The American hierarchy does not much relish Vagnozzi's intervention. "A Papal Nuncio is one step higher than an Apostolic Delegate," mused one U.S. cardinal.
