Title: The Toni Frissell Photograph Collection
Date: 1940s-1960s

Description:
The Toni Frissell Photograph Collection, comprising black and white and color photographs, spans several decades of her career. The collection was created during Frissell's tenure from 1947 to 1960.

Frissell (1907-1988) was an American photographer known for her work in fashion and celebrity portraits. She worked as a staff photographer for the Vogue magazine and was one of the first female photographers to break into the male-dominated industry.

Locations mentioned in the collection include New York City, which was likely Frissell's primary location for shooting many of her photographs during this period.

R.E.M., We Are Having a Heavenly Time!, 1985 on P.F.M.

Bootleg recording from R.E.M.’s September 26th, 1984 gig at Durham North Carolina’s Page Auditorium (on Duke’s campus).

Also available in the Internet Archive – R.E.M. Live – 1984-09-26 Page Auditorium.

It was recorded by the mobile unit of Reflection Sound Studios and then bootlegged, with this notation on the rear cover: “This Fan Club album is not intended for sale, commercial distribution or air play. All rights reserved. Entire packaging and contents copyright 1985 P.F.M. Records a Division of S.B.W. (Special Products). Cover printed in the U.S.A.”

Reportedly R.E.M. issued a cease-and-desist primarily because this implied it was produced by the official fan club.

re Marine researchers find biggest source of microplastics in our ocean is vehicle tyres (via) -- obviously EVs won't solve this (even if they do reduce microplastics caused by brake-wear)...

...which just re-kindles my rage at #DukeUniversity for nuking the #lightRail plan here in #DurhamNC at the very last possible minute, when it was too late to make any changes to address their "concerns".

This is what we could have had by now (or at least nearing completion).

We've got to do better.
