  1. Just watched Identikit (aka "The Driver's Seat"). It might be at a low point in Elizabeth Taylor's career but it is peak Liz to me.

    Recommending this and Kier-La Janisse's book House of Psychotic Women: An Autobiographical Topography of Female Neurosis in Horror and Exploitation Films that got me interested in the film.

  2. "Hawkins Electrical Guide", Volume 10, 1916

    richard.mdpaths.com/books/book

    I rescued this thick, encyclopedic volume from the trash. (Notice the page numbers are up to the 2800s!) These pages are from the chapter on #ElectricVehicles. This illustration is so similar to a modern garage I was intrigued to consider what opportunities had been missed as we progressed to our petro-industry fueled present?

    I was surprised to see "gasoline-electric" mentioned on the first page! The 1916 Prius! 🙂 👍

    "It is evident that the short coming in each case can be overcome only by combining the gas engine with a dynamo connected to a storage battery…" Wow! 1916 and they already had #hybridvehicles !!

  3. For anyone who loves old school #typography...

    "Hawkins Electrical Guide", Volume 10 from 1914

    richard.mdpaths.com/books/book

    Notice the curved outlines of "Hawkins" and "Number", the odd mix in "Questions Answers & Illustrations", the modern san serif all-upper case "Electricity…", and the circular "by" near the bottom. What a feast!

    The motto: "The thought is in the question. The information is in the answer." What does that even mean?!

  4. Today in extremely small arthropods, what I think might be Lepinotus reticulatus, a reticulate-winged booklouse. Maybe 1 mm in length, but fast and hard to photograph. And kind of cute. Found inside one of my insect hotels. #insect #nature #entomology #Psocodea

  5. Pulitzer Prize-winning writer N. Scott Momaday has died at 89. The Kiowa novelist, essayist and poet was the first Native American to win the fiction Pulitzer with his 1968 book "House Made of Dawn" and his work inspired a generation of authors including Leslie Marmon Silko, James Welch and Louise Erdrich. “He was a kind of literary father for a lot of us,” poet laureate Joy Harjo told The Associated Press. “He showed how potent and powerful language and words were in shaping our very existence.”

  10. Прочитал лайтовый детектив. На вечер отлично👍

    ОТЗЫВ

    Лина Шир – Призрачное расследование

    #детектив

    Мне книга залетела.

    Это не простой, а мистический детектив. Нам сразу показывают, что девушку убили и она начинает бродить призраком и помогать в дальнейшем расследовании. Да вот только главный следователь – это ее батя (зря они его дочурку так, зря): суровый, душный и принципиальный. Его все боятся, в общем. Наш призрак в какие-то моменты мимолетно, физически помогает, когда острая нужда в этом. Некоторых даже пугает слабым присутствием.

    Слог легкий, написано лаконично, без всяких вензелей, это все в плюс, читается быстро, глаз не режет. Почти вся книга в движении, что-то, да происходит. Да, в начале топчатся туда-сюда, типичное расследование, ну а потом клубок распутывается и сюжет разворачивается масштабнее.
