...fourth and most successful level is the Artistic, or "Can That Man Sublimate!" Anyone looking for fluid dance sequences, uninterrupted by camera tricks, had better go back and see The Turning Point. This is Cinema as much as Dance; All That Jazz is a dancing movie in that it is a movie that dances. The best sequence is "Come Fly With Me," the greatest group grope in the history of movies, climaxing in smoky half-light. Fosse can give you bodies one segment at a time, cutting from an undulating thigh to a face in the audience to a medium...
...passes into another heat exchanger, or condenser, where it is rechilled (with the cooler water from the top of the pond) and changed back into a liquid. Then the liquid is returned to the evaporator to be reheated and vaporized again for another go-around. Nothing is wasted; the fluid is hermetically sealed for repeated use, and both the heating and cooling water are returned to their original layers in the pond...
...ground and came up with the celebrated new track for Harvard's Indoor Tennis and Track Building. The track has both improved the team's times and decreased its injuries. In their lifesized dummy of the human leg, aluminum bars substitute for bones, simple springs for muscles and a fluid shock absorber for tendons.

...Winter Olympics have always produced galvanizing moments in sport: Franz Klammer's kamikaze downhill run at Innsbruck in 1976, when he beat not only his competitors but a challenging mountain with his will to win; Peggy Fleming's fluid elegance in the 1968 figure-skating finals in Grenoble; Jean-Claude Killy's domination of the slopes in the same Games as he won all three alpine gold medals for la gloire de France. Before the events at Lake Placid draw to a close on Sunday, Feb. 24, they will have created moments of pure gold. Key events...
...home, Washington, D.C. There, after the Three Mile Island accident gave more mileage to the term, "China Syndrome," Joseph Hendrie, then chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, concluded: "It would be prudent to consider expeditiously the provision of instrumentation that would provide an unambiguous indication of the level of fluid in the reactor vessel." Translation: we need more accurate measuring devices. A company vice president dismissed the incident as an exaggeration. What had happened, he said, was "a normal aberration." In the same spirit, federal antitrust lawyers refer to "conscious parallelism"-first cousin to price fixing...
