...left one of my disks in the computer room of my house about a month ago. I was distressed over my loss since the disk contained many important files including my resume, cover letters to different employers and various letters to scholarship sponsors. I had hoped for its return since teh disk had my name on it along with my address and phone number of my freshman year. However, I received nothing until this past Wednesday.

By the early 1980s, more imaginative women in the movement began to speak of a second phase that would be quite different from the first. Friedan, as usual, was out front.

That is probably a forlorn hope, even though the rebels' losses in the offensive may exceed 1,000. If nothing else, the rebels proved they can disrupt life in El Salvador whenever they choose. They have also shown that the government is all too willing to use its heavy firepower when the war is being fought in poor neighborhoods but is reluctant to strafe and bomb a rich enclave like Escalon, where support for the governing ARENA...
