...portable version of the popular machine. This week Apple will finally unveil one. The delay was caused by the difficulty of producing a lightweight Mac with a graphics display as vivid as the larger models'. To achieve that clarity, insiders say, the new machine has an active- matrix screen, in which each of its thousands of picture elements will be controlled by an individual transistor. Instead of Apple's famous mouse, the new Mac has a cursor-control device called a trackball mounted on the keyboard...
...back in the '50s and '60s. When painting was required to be thin, linear and efflorescent, Kossoff stuck to delving into the images and people around him and the memories within. His scenes of public baths, markets and Underground entrances are packed with small figures, stuck in their social matrix as though in jam (especially given Kossoff's dense pigment) -- a pictorial equivalent, as it were, of the double meaning of the Hebrew word olam, which means world but also crowd. A painting like A Street in Willesden, 1985, reminds one of how pointless the stereotypes about English art have...
...neat, uncrowded, attractive, and easy to read. Accuracy in use of language, information, and spelling is key. Word processing on a computer is the most efficient way to produce your resume as you can try out different formats easily. It is not advisable to print out in a dot matrix printer. Laser jet and others types of letter quality printers are available in a variety of places around the University. Check and double check to make sure that there are absolutely no errors...
This formalist geography lesson could not last, of course. In the '80s it came apart like wet Kleenex. America has no single culture, but cultures. And so it should, since diversity is better than monotony. In any case, many ethnic Americans are still exiles within the dominant, white matrix. One painter in this show, Martin Ramirez (1885-1960), epitomized the extreme fate of the Hispanic as outsider. A migrant railroad worker from Mexico, Ramirez lost his powers of speech and became a catatonic schizophrenic in Los Angeles in 1915, was committed in 1930 and spent the last three decades...
None of these personas is totally false. All are part of the matrix that defines Gore: a Democrat who grasps America's role in a changing world, has fought for the rights of average citizens, understands the challenges posed by future technologies and has consistently supported Israel. "The truth is, Al Gore is a complex individual with a wide range of interests and a record of activity in each one of those areas," says an aide. "While that might be attractive in a person, it can be a disadvantage in a presidential candidate." But having failed to define himself, Gore...
