...typography to the mass-produced Marcel Breuer steel tubular chair. They'll wonder how this regulated style ever evolved from these 51 varied graphics--expressionist, primitive, whimsical. realistic, neo-classical, and architectural. And the Busch-Reisinger is not helping anyone by providing enlightening text or more visual information. No linear historical perspective adds to the horizontal historical sample of European...
...unconnected glimpses into their lives, attempts to reproduce on film the texture of everyday life. Just as affairs in reality are a series of fits and starts, with little coherence while they are experienced, so Paul and Adriana's passion and despair, their conversations and lovemaking, occur in non-linear succession, separated from one another by the flash on the screen of the day's date and the unsettling sound of random, atonal notes played on percussion instruments...

His linear choreography has satiric bite. Esplanade, a new piece, will be shown during a June 10-15 engagement at Manhattan's Lyceum Theater...
...widely employed in considering policy problems. Modeling techniques can simplify reality in ways that help in understanding the effects of government programs and estimating the effects of alternative actions. They can also assist the policymaker in choosing among alternatives to maximize his objectives. For example, the use of linear programming or decision theory can be applied to analyze allocation questions, such as how a political candidate should divide his time and funds, or whether off-shore drilling or building supertanker ports will increase the supply of oil without undue harm to our environment. In addition to these techniques, some attention...
Tentatively called a "J" particle by Ting's team, which used the 33 billion-electron-volt accelerator at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, and a "Psi" particle by Richter's group at the two-mile-long Stanford Linear Accelerator, it was the heaviest atomic fragment ever found-almost 3% times more massive than the proton. It was also, by nuclear standards, extremely long-lived. It survived a full one-hundred billionths of one-billionth of a second, or 1,000 times longer than other massive particles...
