Alfred Brendel 1931-2025
Very sorry to read that Alfred Brendel, one of the great pianists of the last century, has passed away. I was lucky to hear Brendel play on several occasions, and will always treasure his recordings.

Cases of clade IIb Mpox surge dramatically in Sierra Leone, just as US withdraws funding for programmes that could have helped. Meanwhile the UK, which has also been active in SL (e.g. during EVD outbreak), has announced drastic cut in overseas aid budget. 'No one is safe until everyone is safe'...
The spread of Mpox in Sierra Leone is unlike anything we have ever seen - and we have been keeping an eye on this bug in the region for >15 years.
Given geographical spread, 50/50 men vs women, this is no "sexual network".
This could be the next one.

'Fingers Crossed' by @mikiberenyi.bsky.social is a 99p Kindle Daily Deal on Amazon UK right now (and #1 on their Music ebook chart). I have the hardback (signed, of course) but at this price it seemed rude not to add the ebook.
