Although showing Tiepolo's stylistic development from the timid "Moses" to the virile "Head of a Bearded Man," the exhibition stresses its second point: primarily Tiepolo's influence on his two sons. Domenico and Lorenzo, and his differentiation between other artists of this atelier. Giovanni Raggis works are much more subdued than Tiepolo's works: Raggi's less effective style of wash makes one appreciate Tiepolo. Raggi's "Virgin" (=25) clearly evolves from specific Tiepolo drawings such as =12, Tiepolo's influence on Francesco Lorenzi is also prevalent. The chalk drawings of these two artists were sometimes indistinguishable...
...Japanese are, to the highest degree, both aggressive and unaggressive, both militaristic and resentful of being pushed around, loyal and treacherous, brave and timid, conservative and hospitable to new ways. They are terribly concerned about what other people will think of their behavior, and they are also overcome by guilt when other peon $49 pie know nothing of their missteps.

But even the fellahin and timid clerks must eventually begin to wonder at the insouciance with which Israeli pilots have begun to bomb around their capital...
Radical but Timid. This disappointing performance has set off a fierce debate in the Soviet press over the adequacy and execution of the reforms, introduced with much fanfare in 1965, that were intended to bring more flexibility into the ponderous, centrally controlled Soviet economy. In a secret speech last month, Party Chief Leonid Brezhnev severely criticized the economy's performance. Last week Pravda, reflecting his words, conceded that the Soviet economy is in serious trouble because of widespread waste, bureaucratic mismanagement, buck-passing and loafing workers-despite the reforms...
