"Iko Iko" ( ) is a much-covered New Orleans song that tells of a parade collision between two tribes of Mardi Gras Indians and the traditional confrontation.
 The song, under the original title "Jock-A-Mo", was written and released as a single in 1953 by Sugar Boy and his Cane Cutters that failed to make the charts.
 The song first became popular in 1965 by the girl group, The Dixie Cups, who scored an international hit with "Iko Iko".
 In 1967 as part of a lawsuit settlement between "Sugar Boy" James Crawford and the Dixie Cups, the trio were given part songwriting credit to the song.
 In 1972, Dr. John had a minor hit with his version of "Iko Iko".
 The most successful charting version in the UK was recorded by Scottish singer Natasha England who took her 1982 version into the top 10.
 "Iko Iko" became an international hit again twice more, the first being the Belle Stars in June 1982 and again with Captain Jack in 2001.
A duplex canceller was a hand stamp used to cancel postage stamps and imprint a dated postmark applied simultaneously with the one device.
 The device had a steel die, generally circular, which printed the location of the cancel, together with the time and date of cancel.
 This die was held in place by a handle with an obliteration marker, often oval shaped, off to the right side that was applied over the postage stamp to prevent its reuse.
 The ink came from an ink pad.
In toss juggling, the shower is a juggling pattern for 3 or more objects, most commonly balls or bean bags, where objects are thrown in a circular motion.
 Balls are thrown high from one hand to the other while the other hand passes the ball back horizontally.
 "In the shower pattern, every ball is thrown in a high arc from the right hand to the left (or vice versa) and then quickly passed off with a low throw from the left to the right hand (or vice versa)."
 The animation depicts a 3-ball version.
 Siteswap notation for shower patterns is (2n-1)1, where n is the number of objects juggled.
 (i.e. 31 for 2 balls, 51 for 3 balls, 71 for 4 balls, etc..
.)

Die glückliche Hand ("The Hand of Fate"), Op.
 18, is a "Drama mit Musik" ("drama with music") by Arnold Schoenberg in four scenes.
 It was composed between 1910 and 1913.
 Like "Erwartung", composed a year earlier, it was heavily influenced by Otto Weininger's book "Sex and Character".
 Unlike "Erwartung", Schoenberg wrote the libretto for "Die glückliche Hand" himself.
 The first performance took place in Vienna on 24 October 1924.
 The underlying message of the piece is the idea that man continues to repeatedly make the same mistakes, and the plot is developed from events in Schoenberg’s personal life.
