...Crimson review of pizza last year touched off a "debate," as the pizza gourmets came out of the woodwork to defend their favorites. Joe's Pizza at 1 Linden St., and its sister shop on Plympton St., feature a thin crust. Pinocchio's at 74 Winthrop St. sells subs and pizza; most people who like a thicker crust frequent Pinocchio...
...potential payoff makes the risks seem worthwhile. The mid-Atlantic rift valley that the subs will probe is the place "where the earth's crust is created," says Chief U.S. Scientist James Heirtzler of Woods Hole. According to the revolutionary new view of geology called "plate tectonics," the earth's outer shell consists not of a single solid mass but of half a dozen or so giant plates on top of which the continents drift like extremely slow-moving ice floes. It was the gradual outpouring of lava from deep within the earth's mantle along...
...Paul Baerman took up breadmaking when she and her husband moved to Atlanta from San Francisco, a mecca of crust. Apart from its delicious hot breads, "Atlanta was a wasteland as far as good bread goes," she recalls. Her favorite recipe-and that of many other amateur loafers interviewed by TIME-is for Julia Child's French bread, which also gets high praise from Beard. Other specialties of Mrs. Baer-man's are French croissants and brioches, as well as sourdough bread, which has a tart flavor imparted by a quirky starter, the homemade leavening agent that gold...
This obsession led to an undeniable grandeur. An early composition like Still-Life: Bottles and Knife testifies to that. Tuned down to the subtlest inter play of gray over gray, unified by the stippled crust of Gris's opaque and polished pigment, these simple objects acquire the amplitude and severity of a Romanesque nave, and one realizes that when Gris used the word "architecture," he was not using a metaphor: the slanting displacement of the still life, as though seen through rolled glass, suggests a kind of response to structural loading-slippage, compression, shear. What Gris's work...
...lunar gravity and ranging in size from tiny pebbles to huge boulders many miles across-crashed into the enlarging moon, it eventually generated enough heat to turn the lunar surface into a sea of molten lava. Slowly, as the bombardment lessened, the lava cooled and hardened into a crust that was then cratered by the impact of the remaining debris. When the rain of rocks eventually ended some 3.9 billion years ago, the moon's surface was covered by great craters and basins. Other changes were still to come. Deep within the moon, heat from the slow decay...
