...struck highly maneuverable nuclear submarines with unerring accuracy. One especially determined Mark-46 survived its initial collision and proceeded to slam again and again into the target sub. To escape damage to his boat, the skipper swiftly surfaced; the Mark-46 is prevented by its programming from returning to shallow depths, where it might turn upon and destroy the ship that fired...
...Shallow Ditch. The tour was also grisly for the Germans, as they measured distances and angles of vision to determine whether defendants could have been heard and identified as claimed by their accusers. One grey-faced lawyer fled an inspection of the dungeons of Cell Block 11, crying "I can't stand it any longer!" Another lawyer became ill after visiting one of the gas chambers.

The Roxbury Carpet Co. has developed a dense, shallow-pile nylon carpet in twelve colors, bonded to a three-sixteenths-inch sponge rubber backing that is so resistant to most stains that they can be easily removed with a wet sponge. Burned areas may be cut out and replaced without showing edges or a patched look. Eliminated are the hazards of slippery floors, the work of polishing to make them slippery, the breakage of any dropped plate or glass, and the fatigue of the stand...

It should try to provide insights into its material and the way in which the scholar deals with it. It is ridiculous to assert that the student is benefited more...
...shallow attempt to manufacture suspense, sports scribes have billed this afternoon's run in Franklin Park as a tense two-team duel between the Crimson and defending champion Northeastern. But even though the Huskies have won seven of seven meets so far this year, it's unlikely that they can upset McCurdy's charges...
