...great need on the left for rational explanation, for ways of looking at events and people that make sense. And the War did not make sense as a momentary aberration, a quirk in an otherwise benevolent foreign policy. The hectic pace of politics in the sixties and the obvious ineptitude (or was it ineptitude?) of those in power forced a radical analysis on these students...
...Epilogue suggests Earth as a dying planet illuminated by the corpse of a setting sun. The production was strongly cast in other major roles. Carol Neblett, a vocally arresting but inexperienced soprano, did both Margherita and Helen of Troy. As Faust, Tenor Robert Nagy sang powerfully but with obvious effort. Julius Rudel's conducting rose successfully to the peaks but tended to coast through the occasional deserts of Boito's score...
Puzzling Conditions. That kind of cataclysm would not have left any obvious scars on the face of the earth, Gold explains, since much of the ultraviolet radiation would have been blocked off by the earth's atmosphere. But, he adds, the atmosphere itself might have been disturbed or even partially swept away. The explosion, for example, might have blown off some atmospheric helium. It could also account for puzzling conditions on other planets, such as the lack of measurable nitrogen on Mars. Perhaps the most spectacular possibility raised by Gold is that one whole side of Mercury, the closest...
...creator is Hungarian-born, Paris-based Painter Victor. Vasarely, the most articulate theoretician of the op movement and longtime believer that art should be not merely a luxury for the rich but available to everyone (or almost everyone). Since Vasarely's paintings fetch upward of $16,000, the obvious way to cut costs was to mass-produce the medium and let the purchaser do the work. Once he hit upon the idea of using movable plastic units, Vasarely applied the fundamental idiom of his paintings-geometry and color. All pieces are snugly interlocking circles and squares and come...
...obvious plonker," confesses the hero of All Neat in Black Stockings. "You know, someone who shares his crumpet with his mates." Indeed, Ginger (Victor Henry) and his best mate Dwyer (Jack Shepherd) have a smooth little system for sharing the wealth. They bring the birds back to their adjoining digs, dim the lights, then trade rooms and partners. It's not as cushy as the setup in Two Gentlemen Sharing, but it gets the job done. At least, until Ginger meets Jill, "the special one" (Susan George). "It's been over three weeks and she's still...
