...MOMA's Szarkowski, the reasons run deeper: "Ansel likes to look simpler than he is. He prints differently because he's a different man. In some contexts he'll admit that printing isn't ultimately a technical problem. But when you say that the changes in his prints imply changes in him, he denies it. He's a more interesting artist than he knows...
...AMF/Head division, explains that the game is "solidifying its base among dedicated tennis players-people who take to the sport as a sport, not as a fashion." Many of those who tried tennis during the boom times but found it tough to master have moved on to jogging or simpler racquet sports. In fact, some of the nation's 11,000 indoor tennis facilities, which cost about $165,000 a court to build, have converted their underused courts to racquetball. It is a tennis-like game that employs a bigger racquet and a slower ball and, its promoters hope...
Actually, police in New York suspect that Sindona may be more afraid of the charges against him in Italy, which are simpler than the 99 counts in the U.S. indictment.

The Mexican drink has a long-haired brand name, Samson, and orange or mango flavors, though Coke can give it any color and taste the customer wants, even split pea. It is made from the whey that is left over from cheese manufacturing; using this protein-potent residue has a double benefit because most whey now is dumped into...
Eventually, Moulton will lower the chemical concentration to see how well gerbils really do smell, and whether they can replace the sharp-nosed hounds at airports. Dogs almost certainly have keener noses, but they require walking, petting and lots of love; gerbils obviously have simpler needs. Of course, the idea of gerbils snuggling up to airline passengers may seem slightly ludicrous. Shrugs Moulton: "That's the FAA'S problem...
