...boldness of rock music than anything else ever has. It wasn't just that Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein were taking the Beatles as seriously-and a good deal more affectionately-than Stockhausen. The worldwide appeal of the Beatles had to do with their perceived innocence, their restless idealism that stayed a step...
...like a Joseph Cornell collage. Some of the colors may be psychedelic, but the shadings are the pastel of memory, the patina made of remembered melody. Lennon, the only wedded Beatle -he had married Cynthia in 1962 and had a son, Julian-had early been typed as the most restless, outspoken and creative of the group, even though he led, outwardly, the most settled life. There was paradox in this popular portrait, just as there was considerable tension in Lennon's belief that the well-noted contradictions were true. There were both beauty and ambition in his music...
...game, junior swingman Don Fleming hit a jumper from the top of the key to close the margin to 41-21, and the crowd greeted the news with a standing ovation. Why?

...Bishop of London told his flock that two recent quakes were warnings from an angry deity. Today, scientists prefer another explanation, an all-encompassing view of the earth known as the theory of plate tectonics.

They account for quakes as well, most of which seem to occur where the great plates meet-at the so-called Ring of Fire, for instance, the tremor-and volcano-prone...
McGinnis' book, like its subject, is unfinished. He packs it with the energy, diversity, and extremity of our last frontier, but he leaves it too raw. It becomes construction noise and restless people passing through. Alaska has not made any sense of itself yet, and neither has McGinnis. There is too little attempt to understand what he has recorded. Nevertheless, he presents the real scene, the graceless complete one. It has the robust glow and toughness of the Alaska that is one huge ragged edge of America...
