 Old Fashioned
So if you want to experience what an Old Fashioned should really taste like, I highly recommend that you use only a teaspoon of water to dissolve the sugar, muddle in the orange and bitters, and use the cherry only as a pretty garnish instead of mangling it in the bottom of the glass.
It would be perfectly fine to use simple syrup instead of sugar in making an Old Fashioned, but if you didn’t have simple syrup around, you could just mix the water and sugar in the glass to dissolve it first.
An Old Fashioned should have the crisp bite of whiskey, but be tempered by the sweetness of sugar, and a hint of orange and bitters.

 Glass onion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glass onions were large hand blown glass bottles used aboard sailing ships to hold wine or brandy.
Glass Onion is also the name of a song by The Beatles, written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, featured on the White Album.
For increased stability on rough seas, the bottles were fashioned with a wide-bottom shape to prevent toppling, thus making the bottles look somewhat onion-shaped.

 Spirits and Alcoholic Beverage Guide at Epicurious.com
Substitute highball or old-fashioned glasses, if you like, but you'll be pouring more out of those pricey bottles.
There's no substitute for their classic shape (holding the glass by its stem keeps your hot hand away from the chilled alcohol).
Stemmed glasses, the same ones for both red and white wine, 10 to 14 ounces, will be fine.

"Now put yourself in the "glass cockpit" of a modern air transport, where, after years of flying planes with those old-fashioned electromechanical gauges and a simple autopilot, you confront a flight deck not only equipped with electronic displays that consolidate information from many sources, but also with a complex array of automated systems.
Copyright (C) 1995 by Thomas Lapp THE GLASS COCKPIT "After years of using simple word-processing software, you are switching to a windows system and, while you see some advantages, all those boxes can be confusing.

 Sequenza21/The Contemporary Classical Music Weekly
In the new "new music," the infectious pulses of minimalism are reconciled with the angularities of serialism, the rigors of old-fashioned counterpoint co-exist with the spontaneity of improvisation and indeterminacy, and the catchy tunes and grooves of rock are woven into a musical language that is too unsettling to be dismissed as crossover.
For Glass, who had performed frequently in poetry/music collaborations with Ginsberg during the last decade of the poet’s life, the symphony is a way of the closing a chapter of his life.
Philip Glass has said that while in the past you'd always know what to expect from a so-called "new music" concert, nowadays anything is possible.

 Glass Armonica, France, ca. 1785, at the National Music Museum
He had a glassblower make him a set of 36 hemispherical bowls, graduated in size, with a hole in the middle so that they could be placed in a row on a horizontal iron spindle and rotated by a treadle mechanism like that of old-fashioned sewing machines.
Most of the surviving glass armonicas were built in Germany or Bohemia during the first half of the 19th century.
As the popularity of playing musical glasses increased during the mid-18th century, Benjamin Franklin, American statesman and inventor, designed a more utilitarian version of the fashionable instrument--the armonica.

Like layers of bulletproof glass, the plywood is much stronger than a normal single wood board.
Instead of using mass to dissipate energy, modern day bulletproof materials are fashioned from many overlapping layers of fibers which are designed to deform when impacted.
In the early 20th century, most bulletproof materials worked by using a dense substance to absorb the force of the impact.

 Variety.com - Reviews - Trying
And McClelland Glass walks a deft line between validating her self-made feminist heroine yet also celebrating many of the values of old-fashioned, upper-crust liberalism represented by the struggling Biddle.
This literate, moving and surprisingly compelling two-handertwo-hander from veteran scribe Joanna McClelland Glass is the most commercially viable new work to emerge from ChiChi's Tony-winning new-play citadel in years.
There's nothing radical in its character-driven structure -- young female secretary with issues tames but also comes to love irascible but whip-smart old judge on the edge of senility -- but this retroretro, sociopolitical docudrama set in 1967 tickles the brain delightfully, and will send older audiences into rapture.

 WashingtonPost.com: Duchamp: A Biography
While the principal forms of the bride, according to Duchamp, are more or less large or small, the forms of the bachelor machine are mensurable, and their relative positions on the glass have been plotted according to old-fashioned vanishing-point perspective.
The large form at the top left is the pendu femelle, a decidedly unglamorous term meaning "hanging female object"; close examination shows that it does indeed hang from a painted hook at the top of the Glass.
Three slightly irregular squares of clear (unpainted-on) glass are enclosed within the cloud; these are the Draft Pistons, a sort of telegraph system through which, using a special alphabet invented by Duchamp, the bride issues her commands, orders, authorizations, etc., thus setting in motion the machinery of love-making.

Touch screens and light pens are both similar manifestations of the same goal -- to get to the image behind the glass.

Firstly the advent of CD’s can be directly linked to the start of the growth in the numbers of the obese in the western world, and we also now miss albums like Season of Glass which has that old fashioned quality where the two sides of the album have an entirely different feel.
Yoko never had a strong or conventional voice, and by the time of the recording of Season Of Glass she was almost fifty years old.
By Season of Glass released in 1981, Yoko had steered her musical style to a more mainstream and traditional rock theme, from those wild ground breaking early days.

 The Glass Menagerie, Classics Corner Discussion
I suspect that to anybody who followed the theatre, when LDJ came out it would have seemed a little more ponderous and old-fashioned in its staging, whereas Williams comes across as trying to be innovative for the sake of it and just doesn't have the same sense of control as O'Neill.
Her daughter Laura, who wears a leg brace, is painfully shy and often seeks solace in her collection of small glass animals.
Both have been disappointed in marriage, both are dealing with potential tragedy with their children, and as a defense they retreat into their youth which seems to them a far better place than the present.
