...Tired of waging a pre-Promethean struggle with stubborn charcoal? Caloric of Topton, Pa., has produced a gas-fired grill that looks like the standard charcoal brazier but uses gas-heated, long-lasting ceramic briquettes. The grill runs off gas cylinders that last all summer or is hooked up directly to the house gas line. The meat still has that cherished charcoal tang, because the tang actually is produced not by the charcoal but by the dripping juices going up in smoke. (Socalled "charcoal-broiled" steaks at restaurants have been cooked with gas-heated briquettes for years.) About...
...that her beauty is evident-as in the sight of her quiet ecstasy in The Lovers, or the crucial, almost unbearable sequence in Le Dialogue des Carmélites when tears spill down from her staring eyes. Jules and Jim showed her in librarian's glasses, wearing a charcoal mustache, smoking an Italian cigar -yet it was still perfectly conceivable that the boys fell in love with her because she looked so much like a statue they saw in Greece. Moreau's beauty is full of change and is totally charismatic. It is the particular kind of beauty...
Rough mud walls proved to be covered with strange and intricate paintings almost too faint to be seen. Painted gods and goddesses emerged from lumps of clay, and scraps of charcoal-like material turned out to be the remnants of food that the ancient people ate, pieces from clothes they wore. By putting the pieces together, Mellaart reports in the latest journal of the British Institute of Archaeology, at Ankara, what he has learned about how people worked and played and worshiped at Çatal Hiiytik 80 centuries...

But through Osborn's 27 chalk, collage and charcoal drawings in Manhattan's Downtown Gallery runs a brooding fury that links the cartoonist with the socially satirical art of Goya, Daumier and Ben Shahn. Side by side with looming figures symbolizing naked, illogical violence are Osborn's equally savage commentaries on the other nameless assassins responsible for the murders of Lieut. Colonel Lemuel Penn and the four...
...repeated gesture shows man against himself, his arms raised threateningly over his own head. But Osborn's most powerful image is also the simplest. In his Homage to Medgar Evers, the Mississippi N.A.A.C.P. leader shot in the back, a human figure is recognizable in a miasma of charcoal only because one fiery tracer plunges down a pathway of death and blows out his life...
