Duo (Marilyn Crispell And Gerry Hemingway Album)
''Duo'' (also referred to as ''Marilyn Crispell and Gerry Hemingway Duo'') is an album by American jazz pianist Marilyn Crispell with drummer Gerry Hemingway, which was recorded in 1989 and released on the Knitting Factory label. Reception In his review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos states "Crispell truly has transcended the Cecil Taylor approach to make music that is all her own, while Hemingway is marvelous in his ability to shade, contrast, punctuate, and complement everything she does. A match made on earth, speaking to the heavens, and some of the ultimate improvised music made for this genre in the '90s." The authors of the ''Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings'' wrote that Hemingway is "a strong but by no means aggressive player" who "concentrates in the spaces in the music, stippling them with detail." Track listing # "Rotations" (Marilyn Crispell) – 11:12 # "Swailing" (Gerry Hemingway) – 8:02 # "Billy Duck" (Marilyn Crispell) – 7:07 # "Thumbrill" (Gerry Hemingway ...

Duo (novel)
''Duo'' is a 1934 novel by the French writer Colette. The story focuses on a married couple on vacation in southern France, who deal with the fact that the wife has been unfaithful. Roberto Rossellini's 1954 film ''Journey to Italy'' is loosely based on the novel but is uncredited because the rights were not issued. Reception Margaret Wallace of ''The New York Times'' wrote: "''Duo'' is a small work and very fine. In comparison with Colette's previous novels it gives one- and this is odd, for nothing she has written has ever seemed shallow or immature- an impression of increased depth and maturity. It is altogether a cleaner and harder piece of writing than one has expected from Colette in the past. It is less mannered, ruthlessly stripped of anything decorative or ornamental, even of wit purely for wit's sake."

Uno (card Game)
Uno (; from Spanish and Italian for 'one'), stylized as UNO, is a proprietary American shedding-type card game originally developed in 1971 by Merle Robbins in Reading, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati, that housed International Games Inc., a gaming company acquired by Mattel on January 23, 1992.
