...particularly intense quality. In the faster tunes of Blue Grass Music the upbeat is stressed rather than the usual 4/4 downbeat. The effect this creates is to free the music from an otherwise plodding structure, allowing amazing effects of syncopation between the instruments. Bill Monroe served as a master blender of musical styles and influences, making his music a new and thrilling experience while drawing on hundreds of years of tradition. It is this quality of Blue Grass Music that makes it at the same time a commercially popular form and a true, living style of folk music...

Putting the required and wearisome ingredients in her wearing blender, she mixed Freud, lunacy, imagery, symbolism and convoluted time. It came out something like this...
Minimizing Discomfort. According to the Seattle scientists, space-flight wastes will be processed in a blender, then stored in convenient tanks until needed for fuel to perform orbital changes, mid-course corrections, retrorocket firing and other maneuvers. Blending and transfer of MONEX W will be handled automatically "to minimize psychological discomfort"-as Rocket Research delicately phrases...
...orbital weight of a MONEX W rocket. They plan to use a soluble cement to bond powdered metal into such structures as special instrument panels that are used only in the early stages of the flight. When their purpose has been served, the structures will be tossed into the blender. The moist wastes will dissolve the cement, returning the metal to its powdered form and making it a suitable ingredient for MONEX...
Bizarre Products. To prepare solids for microencapsulation, N.C.R. scientists grind and filter them down to particles of the desired size. Liquids are suspended in droplet form in other liquids-like salad oil in water-and the mixture is run through an industrial blender that breaks the droplets down into still smaller sizes. The tiny particles or droplets are then placed in a solution of coating material, which congeals around them when the temperature, acidity or concentration of the solution is changed-forming capsules as small as one twenty-five-thousandth of an inch in diameter...
