Omar Sakr @omarsakrpoet on X:

At the Invasion Day rally in Perth yesterday, a man threw a bomb onto the stage while an Elder was speaking. He has not been charged with terrorism, but instead 'intent to harm' and one count of 'making or possession of explosives under suspicious circumstances'.

This is absurd.

The Fortunes - You've Got Your Troubles (1965)

You’ve Got Your Troubles was a big hit in the UK, held off from #1 by the Beatles’ Help!. It’s that horn part that pulls the whole thing together.

Rajie Cook (July 6, 1930 – February 6, 2021)

In 1999, after 46 years as a graphic designer, he found time to explore this new medium, sculptural "assemblage". (see https://almostarts.tumblr.com/post/644208309864415232/rajie-cook-july-6-1930-february-6-2021)

The inspiration and opportunity to explore this mode of artistic expression comes at a time when his commercial career has sufficiently matured so that Ihe can apply his skills, experiences, and a lifetime of artistic perspective to create "statements" with these assemblages.

Many of the “Boxes” that he has created are an expression of the artist’s deeply felt concern for human rights and for the tragic conditions in the Middle East.

They were created to articulate the circumstances and experiences he encountered during the ten years he has served on the Task Force for the Middle East, a group sponsored by the Presbyterian Church, USA. With this group he has traveled on fact-finding trips to Israel, Jordan, and Palestine (West Bank & Gaza)
