The [Wednesday] Papers
- New on the Beachwood today . . . The Political Odds * Area Woman Reads Greg Kot * Cuts And Beats - ChicagoReddit Incessant 773 Robocalls With Ominous Warning ~ "This is a test, stay home, stay safe" from r/chicago - ChicagoGram - ChicagoTube The CSO on WGN. "In 1951, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra became the first American orchestra to appear on a weekly series of televised concerts. Originally called Hour of Music and later Great Music from Chicago, this series was broadcast locally on WGN-Channel 9 and featured world-renowned conductors and soloists. "These broadcasts have been transferred to a digital format and will be released online as the free series From the CSO's Archives: Great Music From Chicago. "The first episode, premiering Nov. 5 on the CSOtv portal, features guest conductor Jean Martinon and violin soloist Isaac Stern in works by Handel, Mozart and Mendelssohn, recorded in March 1962." - BeachBook Is Bar Soap Really All That Gross? Yes And No. To look at, yes; to cleanse, no. * Donations To Republicans And Democrats By Occupation. * Yes, Websites Really Are Starting To Look Alike. I flagged this way before this; WordPress and off-the-shelf templates that make it easy on non-techies are to blame, as well as designers who cost too damn much.
