In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of word for the day. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the word of the day; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
animadversion \an-uh-mad-VUR-zhun\, noun:
1. Harsh criticism or disapproval.
2. Remarks by way of criticism and usually of censure; adverse criticism; reproof; blame.
Etymology: Animadversion is from Latin animadversio, animadversion-, from animadversus, past participle of animadverto, animadvertere, to turn the mind toward, from animus, mind, spirit + adverto, advertere, to turn toward, from ad, toward + verto, vertere, to turn.

I've always appreciated good honest displays of lust on the parts of women, if you'll pardon the expression...

The University launched an informal investigation into Bellesiles' book in February, after some members of the national academic community accused him of basing his research on fraudulent and long-destroyed records. The results of that internal inquiry led Interim Dean of the College Robert Paul to launch a second external investigation by a panel of "distinguished scholars."
Bellesiles' case marks the first time a College professor has been charged and investigated for research misconduct. The college is not going to release the findings of this independent investigation until after Bellesiles has had a chance to appeal the findings. Which he is doing right now. Does that give anyone the idea that perhaps things did not go Michael's way?? Oh I can't tell you how that concerns me. /sarcasm
I loathe collegiate cheaters and frauds, and have nothing but animadversion towards them all. Bellesile is going to be burned and burned hard for his lies. Good.
Bellesiles appeals independent panel ruling
