The paintings were named (Sabra, Sinjerli) for ancient cities in Asia Minor only because Stella has been looking at plans for circular cities in a book on Islamic architecture...
...affairs dean, already has persuaded students at the University of California's Santa Cruz campus to get off "the top of this hill" and help tutor the area's high school pupils from culturally deprived areas.
