But "Fosse/Verdon," despite its shuffled chronology, its stylized countdown captions ("267 Days Since Verdon's 1st Tony Award"), and some "All That Jazz"-esque surreal flashes meant to suggest inner conflicts, is a frustratingly linear project, flattening kinky situations into straight lines.

Beard draws straight lines from the attitudes of the classical world to the sexism that attended Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign; the harassment women face online; the bomb threats that followed one scholar's suggestion that Britain might feature more women on bank notes.

So while the corps is expected to be able to move in startling unison, like a school of fish, and to assemble in straight lines and keep all rippling swan arms parallel, its 54 members are also competing for bigger roles and promotions.

Recognized by MoMA's founding director Alfred H. Barr, Jr. who placed him in the seminal 1936 exhibition Cubism and Abstract Art, Kupka continued painting non-illusionist compositions that transmit a pleasurable tension when read as bounded and polymorphous, like "Circle and Straight Lines" (1937).

THE ruler-straight lines and strange squiggles of Africa's borders are a reminder of how the continent was carved up by European powers around a conference table in Berlin at the end of the 19th century—with scant regard for the wishes of its inhabitants.

In spite of the latter two working in Aldo's favor, he was often going back on straight lines, with his head in a neutral position and his chin hanging up in the air, and Edgar cracked him a good few times as a result.

Updates to object modeling mean the system now factors in all possible perspectives, resulting in, among other things, the less post apocalyptic image on the below right: The new rending system employs WebGL, trading curved fish-eye style images for straight lines on mobile.

The bottle's gas valve is opened or the lead pellet gets vaporized, then the particles head on their journey through straight lines and loops, are stripped of their electrons, and are sometimes diverted into other experiments along the way, before entering the 17-mile-round LHC ring.

" Recalling the rigor of Ms. Wilson's drawing class, Ms. Vernon said, "we were made to draw straight lines from one side of an 18-by-24 page to another, for two or three weeks before we could even go on to observe objects and still lifes.

Likewise, the stage was filled with multiple aspects of the rich demands he made of the upper and lower body: intricate footwork; lines fully stretched from finger to toe; arms that work as gesture; straight lines; and dramatic gestures, with torsos bending and twisting in every way.

When he returned to studio practice in 2009, after decades working outdoor, he began using these tubes in two-dimensional artworks that draw on his early, Mondrian-inspired exploration of straight lines, but Irwin's works are interventions that alter the viewer's perception of the gallery space.

But Matt Uyttendaele, one of the research scientists working on the project, explained to me in an interview that traditional computer vision researchers would approach this problem by looking to identify straight lines in a photo converging at a vanishing point (when two parallel lines appear to intersect).

His most recent rhetorical contortions on immigration — which he has variously described as more "compassionate" and more hawkish than the president's — exemplify the difficulty of pinning down Mr. Romney's politics generally let alone of drawing straight lines between his religious identity and his relationship to this administration's agenda.

His classic New England sensibility — he favors straight lines, simple stripes and the innate minimalism of colonial architecture — is tempered by his formal training in industrial design at New York City's Pratt Institute, as well as his deep affinity for French Modernists, including Jean Prouvé and Jean Royère.

A 15-story hotel on the corner counters all these straight lines, with a curving prow that softens the approach to the tower, as well as a 50-story twin, to be known as 90 Columbus, that is scheduled to begin rising in March and to be completed by 2018.

The letter seems to reinforce the familiar narrative of one-way influence, positioning LeWitt as the sage mentor, but turn around and you encounter a sight line that challenges it: a view straight through LeWitt's lattice to Hesse's cube and, beyond that, to the wall containing LeWitt's first "not straight" lines.

It is with these drawings, some from 1908 but the majority done around 43, that Modigliani began to integrate the lessons of Cubism into his work, sublimating the erotic into slices of curved and straight lines, ennobling the languid poses of his models (including the nude Akhmatova, in several images) with hieroglyphic grandeur.

At the same time, the algorithm also ensures that the de-warped areas of an image blend smoothly into surrounding areas of a photo that haven't been corrected, so that objects with straight lines, such as buildings behind a group of people, don't end looking like something out of a Dr. Seuss book.

With her haunting "Washer Table" (1967), as well as a series of delicate drawings, Hesse goes on bending Minimalism from the inside out; with his electric wall drawings of "not straight" lines and the literal burying of one of his cubes, LeWitt continues to use artistic form to impose order on chaos.

I don't know about you, but my connections are not always straight lines, and my philosophy is that as long as you eventually get to the correct answer, that's perfectly O.K. I am not a follower of football, but I knew this one from the comedian Frank Caliendo's impersonation of the commentator John Madden. Odd?

The bet is that targeting Trump's weakness for exaggerated shows of respect will make him look kindly on Britain amid its deepest political crisis since World War II.

They've demonstrated this working both in simulation and in a pool at MIT, with the rectangular platform robots configuring themselves into straight lines, squares and even Ls. So they've essentially mastered the basic shapes from Tetris, but this is a key step in the ultimate goal of making these the basis for truly utilitarian robots that can assemble and reassemble on-demand to create bridges, floating platforms, on-demand barges of any size and more, which would have obvious applications for reshaping urban environments with easy access to water.
