What's your IBN

Rather than patriotic, IBN is patronymic that is, it typically means "son of."
It's also shorthand for IB-A-N (Interational Bank Account Number / International Banking Number) - as in, what's your IBN? I suppose we also have the far more reasonable ISBN, also.

You'd likely think first of Ibn Saud, the first King of Saudi Arabia (1932-1953), when both uses spring to mind, or your may prefer your own example.We thought of Alī ibn Abī Ṭālib, the first Shia Iman ourselves, 656–661 AD, when considering the Arabic use only, along with the interest to our reader. We thought back to our Catholic Liberal Arts studies, and the early Muslim scholars, such as Avicenna.



Upon seeing the iHome IBN 10, something struck us as making it worthy of review. We see now that it perhaps was it's Nest reminiscent front panel, or it's colourful take on the the Kaaba.

Loosly translated, then IBN 10 BC could mean the son of someone from 10 BC.
We don't know much about 10BC. The Gospels were written well after that.

Hulwan ibn Imran (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali) comes up in a Google search.


In Hi Fi, we have a paradox: How to get a stereo 3D image out of two towers. That is, an image, with width, height and depth. RCA made quite lovely recordings with only a single speaker. The BeolLit 12 does that quite well, alay. Today, we are present with the image

Roman mosaic, about 70-10 BC.

Panel from a mosaic showing a lion and cupids
This scene shows a lion being taunted by four cupids, and in the background on the hill stands Bacchus, who was the god of wine. This was the central point of a plain floor in the villa, and typically more attention was paid to this image, which resulted in finer detail, perspective and shading, to be similar to that of a painted work.
