Affirmative Access

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR MISUNDERSTANDING (1961)

   Sorry, I should have said 1961.  (The sequel was written in 1964.)  The
novel is written half in the voice of a white man, half in the voice of a
black prostitute.  "Fug" is used a lot.  Why didn't Lighter treat this word?

AFFIRMATIVE ACCESS

   From the VILLAGE VOICE, 7 November 2000, pg. 47, col. 2:

   ...Bush, who has already coined the phrase "affirmative access" to replace
programs that benefit minorities.

CHARTICLE, ADULTESCENT

   From NEW YORK PRESS, November 1-7, 2000, pg. 1, col. 2:

   ...the editorial mostly comes in bite-size bits and "charticles," mostly
on lifestyle trivai concerning, as _Maxim_'s cover declares, sex, sports,
beer, gadgets, clothes and fitness.  (...)  The implication is that _Maxim_
taps the 15-year-old in all men--a readership _Advertising Age_ gave the ugly
sobriquet "adultescents."
