  • Fascinating -- Campanologomania -- why is the dumb-bell, change ringing and more

  • Tower Records on Sunset in 1971 (10-minute video)

  • Also in Slate, in one of their blogs, Why Does ISIS Have So Many Names?
    the New York Times, LA Times; ABC, CBS and NBC all use 'ISIS'. However, the US government uses 'ISIL', for Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
    Initially I attributed the difference to an assumed ignorance of the Levant Also contrast Obama's neutral rendering of "ISIL" (almost rhyming with "pencil") with the sinister, hissing "ISIS."
    And FYI that second "S" actually stands for "al-Sham" (Arabic for the Levant).

top of the new dual-flush toilet
The configuration of the top-center of my new dual-flush toilet has an athropomorphic, mournful expression.
  • Brian Eno released a secret, to-the-trade only CD of ambient sounds in 1989, called Textures, now available on YouTube. Interesting, but I listen to the older Evening Star more often.

  • A new day trip, when you go to Venice (and everybody should go to Venezia   at least once) -- the technicolor town of Burano. The name reminds me of the Soviet space shuttle and the neighboring glass island of Murano.
