...archly told us, “That’s why I never had music—you can’t think!” But the Cambridge of Josefina’s prime is not the Cambridge of today. Ominously, banks now seem to dominate the central trine of Harvard square, taking advantage, as Josephina emphasized, of skyrocketing rents that only they can pay. And Harvard, the landlord in many cases, has done nothing to stop the commercialization of what used to be a closer, more integrated community.Her philosophy of a coffeehouse, in this way, stands directly opposite...
...three medals each. The men at the helms of these swift, finicky craft needed the cunning of a chess player, the agility of a gymnast. And experience counted too. The most weathered sailor was Denmark's Paul Elvstrom, 59, career winner of four Olympic gold medals, whose daughter Trine served as crew. With Trine flying on the boat-stabilizing trapeze, the gray-bearded Elvstrom raced to a fourth-place finish in the Tornado catamaran class.

While Metzger is conservative on matters of doc trine, he is willing to avoid male nouns and pronouns-where the original Hebrew and Greek texts allow it. Thus the reference in Romans 14: 1 to "the man who is weak in faith" will likely become "the one who is weak . . ." In Psalms, the first verse will read "Blessed are those who walk not in the counsel of the wicked," rather than "Blessed is the man who walks...
...fact that the new counterforce policy is a modification of existing doc trine has raised questions about why Carter has dramatized the change by making it a Presidential Directive. Brzezinski was the chief advocate of the move, while Brown is thought to have favored keeping the policy an internal Pentagon matter. A number of critics believe that Carter wants to publicize the matter because he needs to appear tougher on defense is sues to blunt criticism from G.O.P. Nominee Ronald Reagan.
