[A series of 6 photos] This circa 1900 store is located in Blackstone, Nottoway County, Virginia. A plaque on the building reads as follows: "This building originally had a sidewalk entrance to the upstairs. During World War II, when Blackstone was under mandatory rent control, the upstairs was the rent rate office. This is where rental rates were set for housing at that time. It has also been home to Sanitary Barber Shop and Watkins Jewels. The exterior has an historic Mesker Bros. metal facade dating back to the late 1800s."
This Mesker Brothers metal facade is colorful, especially with the use of gold and black in the projecting cornice. Between the end brackets (each with a fleur-de-lis) is a course of sunburst motifs in the cloud-like shapes. Below this is a course of the fleur-de-lis pattern that spans the width of the structure. A series of 8 Corinthian columns, each resting on a base of double rosettes, separate the various units of the 2nd story. At each end is a panel featuring double dolphins. The five windows are separated by the other columns, and above each window is a variation of the sunburst ornament.
Blackstone, a town of about 3,300 people is in economically deprived Southside Virginia; but the town has managed a revitalization program for its business district with many storefronts restored to an original appearance. Nearby Fort Pickett has probably contributed to the town's prosperity. This structure is a contributing building to the Blackstone Historical District, added to the National Register of Historic Places January 25, 1991 with reference number 90002174.

Born in Florence to American expatriate parents, John Singer Sargent (1856–1925) is considered Europe's leading portrait painter of the Edwardian era. He was educated at both Accademia delle Belle Arti and Paris's École des Beaux Arts. While in Paris, under the guidance of Émile–Auguste Carolus–Duran, a portraitist and muralist, Sargent learned to paint directly from observation without first sketching, employing a fluidity, influenced by the Impressionists. Sargent created more than 2,900 paintings, mainly portraits and landscapes from his travels across the Atlantic, Europe, the Middle East and America. We've collected some of his finest public domain paintings in this collection, including his most famous opus, Madame X, they are all available to download under the CC0 license.

On Saturday 18 May, the 14th national rally since October 2023 was organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and other groups, and possibly as many as 250,000 protesters marched across central London from Mortimer Street W1 (near the BBC headquarters at Broadcasting House) to Whitehall, just a few metres away from prime minister Rishi Sunak's office and residence at 10 Downing Street.
It is difficult to estimate the total number of demonstrators but I stopped on Regent Street to photograph individuals and groups, and it took at least an hour for the majority of the marchers to pass.
Many of those participating did so in part to commemorate Nakba Day, the 76th anniversary of which fell three days earlier on 15 May. Nakba Day commemorates the brutal ethnic cleansing and expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians from their homes and villages in the months after 15 May 1948 by the Israeli army and Zionist militia. Although historians point out that the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land long predated 15 May 1948, and has continued ever since.
Many of the protesters carried the iconic "Keys of Return," symbolising the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their original homes, which was recognised by The United Nations UN General Assembly Resolution 194 which was passed on December 11, 1948.
Protesters were also demanding an immediate ceasefire, an immediate resumption and expansion of emergency aid and an end to the siege of Gaza and the illegal Israeli Occupation.
The march occurred just two days before the International Criminal Court's (ICC's) lead prosecutor, Karim Khan, announced that arrest warrants for war crimes had been requested for Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant. It was Gallant who in October 2023 infamously justified his declaration of a "complete siege " on Gaza by claiming Israel was "fighting against human animals."

Seies Z7100 EMUs dating back to the early 1960s comprised of a power car (closest to the camera) and loose trailers rather than fixed formed sets. Based at Vénissieux depot in the suburbs of Lyon, these worked over much of the line through Avignon and along the coast to the Spanish border. Seen at the frontier station of Cerbère on 9 April 1987, Z7118 forms the 14:48 departure to Perpignan.

Ingrid Ingrid, Effet domino, 2019
Faites chuter les dominos l’un à la suite de l’autre pour déclencher une harmonie musicale et former un arc coloré et lumineux aux tons pastel. Résultat : un orchestre de dominos multicolores !
Chacun des modules propose un univers sonore différent : voix, percussions, marimba, balafon, flûte. Chaque domino émet un son qui lui est propre, improvisez-vous DJ en « scratchant » un domino en le déplaçant sur lui-même à des vitesses différentes ou en le tapotant.
Jouez ensemble pour remettre les dominos plus rapidement à la verticale et provoquer une nouvelle chute ou poussez-les en sens contraire pour inverser la séquence sonore.

Galería Leandro Navarro in Madrid, Spain gave a solo show to Picasso during Art Basel Hong Kong 2013.
Titled “Les Trois Baigneuses” or “The three bathers” in English, this painting was drawn on September 15, 1932 while Picasso is having his summer vacations in the South of France—at Boisgeloup.
Picasso is one of my favorite artists of all times. As a creator, his work is always changing and fresh, independent of gallery demands. His lines are brief, which shows decisiveness and maturity of a painter.

# Description by the Gallery
In 1932, inspired by his summer vacations in the South of France, Picasso executed a number of paintings of figures on a beach. This work is most closely related to two similar sized compositions, both titled Baigneuses, painted during the same period (Zervos, vol.8, nos. 61 and 62). The first (no. 61) was painted one week earlier on September the 6th and was also dean with a dense line and darkly coloured passages in the background. That work appears to contain four figures in a mostly triangular grouping. The present work contains three figures and the added element of the dressing huts in the right background. The final work (no. 62) painted on the 28th of November shows the figures more clearly delineated and the whole composition is far more sophisticated. While the last work most clearly shows the figures as play, this and the earlier painting both have an element of foreboding as the lower figure relates to the image of the drowned woman which appears in other beach scenes. With this association in mind, the scene shifts between exuberant play and a moment of highly charged distress.

لو يذكر الزيتون غارسهُ، لصار الزيت دمعاً
محمود درويش
"If the olive trees know the hands that planted them, their oil would become tears." Mahmoud Darwish.
On Saturday 25 May, University College London (UCL) students called on the support of other students and supporters across London to rally outside their Gaza pro-ceasefire encampment after the announcement that a pro-Israel rally would take place outside their main gate that afternoon.
One of the most frequently heard chants by students on this and other days was
"Disclose, Divest,
We will not stop,
We will not rest."
Among the crowd there were many students from the neighbouring School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) where an encampment had already been established about two weeks earlier.
SOAS students earlier published a list of demands including, according to two metre high placard at their encampment -
1. Disclose - Full details of all university investments
2. Divest - from companies complicit in Israel's denial of Palestinian rights - [a list of specific companies followed which included Barclays Bank, Alphabet (Google/Alphabet) and Microsoft.]
3. Terminate - the university's banking and lending arrangement with Barclays
4. Boycott - Israeli academic institutions which are complicit in the violation of Palestinian human rights, including the University of Haifa
5. Commit - to supporting Palestinian education and the rebuilding of Gaza's Schools and Hospitals. Establish partnerships and exchanges with Palestinian institutions and academics. Increase scholarships for Palestinian students. Advocate for removal of restrictions for pro-Palestinian expression.
6. Guarantee - the right of students and staff to express solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for liberation including in research, speech and actions.
7. Advocate - for the UK government to implement an arms embargo on Israel, to call for an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire.
As of the date of posting (4 June 2024) at least 36,932 Palestinians have been killed since 7 October, including more than 15,000 children. An estimated 10,000 are missing, of whom most are probably dead. An unknown number of additional deaths due to excess mortality from food shortages, disease and difficulties in obtaining essential medical care and medicines. More than 82,000 Palestinians have been injured, many of them with life-changing injuries including many amputations. According to the United Nations, as of 2 June, more than half of all residential buildings have been destroyed or damaged but with some key infrastructure the destruction is even more devastating - including 80% of commercial facilities and 86% of school buildings damaged or destroyed. Additionally some 83% of groundwater wells are no longer operational.
