In the course of continuing to follow the photographic work of Lynsey Addario, today I came upon this fascinating 11/24/15 New York Times Magazine piece by Wes Enzinna about a little-known aspect of the mess in Syria.

Basic Financial Literacy — Take The Test
Seems that 2/3 of the world flunks this simple financial literacy test. I got it 100% right, and so should you. (Although my score doesn’t exactly translate into a perfect state of personal financial well-being!)

Long Beach June 1972: Rolling Stones Concert
Found this bunch of miscellany on the run-up afternoon and evening of the Stones concert in Long Beach. Scalpers, police, hookers, Krishna people, photographers, fans …
(For a time I lived in the rather upscale Belmont Shore district of Long Beach, but spent most of my (photographic) time in the far more interesting Long Beach area known as The Pike, where tattoo parlors, sailors, prostitutes and all forms of grittiness prevailed. More to follow if I find some of those photographs.)
