61 выпускать пар
выпускать пар < из котла>разг.let off (blow off) < some> steam; let off the pressureДа разве же это государственные умы? Вся Россия видит, что надо выпустить пар, дать людям хоть немного свободы, научиться уважать и другое мнение: нет, упёрлись, стоят тупо, ни пяди не отдают, и только давят, вешают, заселяют Сибирь. (Ю. Трифонов, Нетерпение) — Are these the minds of statesmen? All Russia can see that the pressure has to be let off, people must be allowed to enjoy at least a little freedom, to learn respect for the opinion of others. But no, they have dug their heels in and stand with stolid indifference, not yielding an inch; all they can do is suppress and hang and send people to Siberia.

Черняк, Час пробил) — 'Now don't go getting smart! You hear?' Horowitz blew up. He tore the map out of the doctor's hands and headed toward the plane... 'Now that's a rare occurrence!' thought Byden. 'Horowitz blew off some steam.'
