...cannot help but be immediately reminded of "Glad," when the wah-wah begins. The entire piece, although quite lengthy (11:03) does not drag for a moment because of the constant shifting of melodies and countermelodies among the sax, piano, and synthesizer. This shifting could cause a serious breakdown in the continuity of the composition if not for the solid rhythm section, highlighted by Capaldi's drumming--highly characteristic of Traffic's sound in the past...
...restrictions came as a result of an Abbott-sponsored study in which a few rats fed vast amounts of a cyclamate-saccharin mixture, plus added cyclohexylamine (a breakdown product of cyclamate), showed some bladder tumors. Since that first study, other scientists have conducted studies on cyclamate in an attempt to duplicate those results. None of these studies show any cancer-causing effects from cyclamate. Although none of these studies were requested or paid for by Abbott, they are the studies that Abbott has submitted to the Food and Drug Administration to support its food-additive petition, which, if approved, would...
With Ankara in clear command of all the territory it apparently wanted, the wheels of diplomacy, which had been stopped by the Aug. 14 breakdown of the Geneva talks, once again began turning.

...newest Turkish violation of the cease-fire on Cyprus began at dawn Wednesday, less than an hour after the breakdown of peace talks in Geneva. Günes telephoned Premier Bülent Ecevit in Ankara to report that Greece would not accede to Turkish demands that the island be partitioned into Greek and Turkish Cypriot zones, and that the talks were fruitless. Almost immediately Radio Ankara signaled the code words: "TYK in Force," meaning start the assault. Within minutes, Turkish jets were over Famagusta and Nicosia, making passes in Nicosia's International Airport area and dive-bombing...
