Lord Kelvin was born in 1824, and he was ennobled in 1892, when he was 68 years old. I would assume most of his scientific work would have been produced by then. So when people reference his work, they would have cited "William Thomson" rather than "The Lord Kelvin". So why do we remember him as The Lord Kelvin rather than William Thomson?

| PLAYER STATS |
All effort on both ends 11 points 9 rebounds and 9 blocks as a stat sheet doesn't do any justice to his performance.
>Robert Williams has blocked 1 out of every 6 Nets 2-point attempts in this game, He's played 21 of the 46 minutes.
ALSO:
> Robert Williams is the first player on record in NBA playoff history to log at least 9 blocks while playing fewer than 25 minutes, per @Stathead.
He also got the official Celtics franchise record in blocked shots (nine). Bill Russell had several double-digit block games but that was not official and will never unfortunately

He certainly has the talent, but I am concerned about his injury history and how much time heβs missed to a variety of issues (back, hip, ankle, toe) that date back to college. When he became the starter after the trade deadline, he lasted not even 20 games of over 24 minutes before getting hurt.
Every time Iβve watched him play, itβs undeniable what an impact he makes on both offense and defense and has tremendous upside, but do you think they have to split their minutes at Center, and might be the reason why they went after Tristan Thompson and were rumored to get Myles Turner in the potential Hayward trade, both of whom could start on a handful of teams?
It feels backwards to have Williams coming off the bench but unless he can show that he can stay on the floor, is he part of this teamβs future? I am concerned as a fan about extending/overpaying him and not having a solid backup.
I think some of this can be curbed by him staying more grounded and not using all of his athleticism/overextending as much (part of how he rolled his ankle landing on Tatum at the end of the year) because I worry if heβs doing too much at all times as a big, itβs just going to keep being an issue in the future. For the record, I love him as a player and hope he stays healthy, just wondering if this needs to be met with concern.
What are your thoughts on Timelord and do you think he fits the teamβs timeline and can be coached/trained to fix these issues, or do you think the injuries will make it impossible for him to be a part of the teamβs long-term plan?
Around the 1950s, the label Soundmark Records put out quite a few records of authors and poets reading their work, including James Baldwin, Robert Frost, Ezra Pound, Sylvia Plath, William Carlos Williams, E.E. Cummings, T.S. Eliot, William Butler Yeats, Langston Hughes and more. The recordings include a mix of excerpts of novels and poetry.
Last year I discovered some albums of 20th century writers reciting their work and eventually I came across these albums. I recently realized that there were a huge volume of these Soundmark recordings, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to find them all in one place, so I searched for as many as I could find and compiled them into this playlist. (I'm not sure how many I may be missing, so if you know of any albums I should add, feel free to comment them here or send me a message and I'll add it!)
I've been really enjoying listening to these writers reading their own words, and I find it's interesting to hear their different accents and inflections and how lyrically or flatly they individually speak. It's like discovering another dimension to the written work, since you're not only experiencing the words of the author but you're actually hearing the words spoken in their own voice with all their own unique inflections and articulations. I would be interested to know what all your thoughts are on this, and whether you think it adds or takes away from the experience of these texts.

EDIT 2: Unfortunately it seems like there is a fair amount of content which isn't available in the U.S. I don't know how likely this is, but it may be worth checking YouTube to see if the albums have been uploaded there.
EDIT 3: Thank you everyone for the awards - I'm very happy to share this great collection of albums and I'm glad to see that you're enjoying it as much as I've been!
