Jeff Buckley, 1995, Providence

Hi not a member of this group but going through some photo albums and thought you might enjoy this picture of Jeff resting on my bed on Power Street in Providence. I was working at WBRU at the time and we hosted a meet and greet for him at Strawberries and afterwards I invited him to lunch. The restaurant was closed so we went back to my house and I cooked for him while he took a nap on my bed. He was tired. There was no sex. Just stir fry broccoli and chicken, the one thing I could cook back then.

So I do not listen to music while I write, but as I've been working on this rock star AU a few songs have been kind of slamming me in the face.

I was today years old when I learned this is a cover. Anyway, the violin is just amazing, gives me chills.

That bass line!

Another one that gives me chills, the chorus makes me want to dance and scream at the same time.

TIL: In 1976, the Beatles secretly reunited under the name Klaatu, obscuring their identities by including no names or biographical information on their records and offering as their only clue the name of the alien from the same film that Ringo Starr had referenced on the cover of his LP Goodnight Vienna. Also, it kinda sounds like something they could have made almost ten years previously. And like, they have multiple songs about the sun! Look up there, it’s a sun! Who else could it be? 

According to sources I found, the above mentioned “Providence Journal Rock Critic” was not actually a journalist or rock expert nor did he work for the PJ, so good on him getting far enough with his wild 70s speculations that someone in 2022 mentioned it to me over coffee the other day.

So yeah. You’re welcome--the Beatles DID get back together, it was in 1976, and it’s... okay?

[ The body of a deceased European turtle dove, photographed by Antoine Monnier. ]

“A dead turtle dove was left on the steps of Castille by Birdlife following a news conference the organisation held prior to an expected court decision on the hunting of turtle doves on Friday.

Addressing the media, members of the organisation said the current spring hunting season on the common quail, which has been open since Monday, has already resulted in a significant number of European turtle-doves being killed illegally. A decision on whether turtle-doves may be hunted legally in Malta is expected on Friday.

Birdlife had filed a warrant of prohibitory injunction last week which was provisionally upheld by the court.

It is arguing that the decision allowing turtle-doves to be hunted between April 17 and 30 is based on false data disregarding the periled conservation status of the species.

A court presided by Mr Justice Giovanni Grixti shall be hearing the case on Friday.

The recommendation to open a hunting season on turtle-dove was taken at an Ornis Committee meeting on March 29 on the basis of a report tabled by the Wild Birds Regulation Unit (WBRU).

This stated that Malta’s reference population on turtle-doves has increased between 10-12%, with the committee agreeing to a quota of 1,500 birds to be killed over a two-week period.

BirdLife Malta is contesting the science behind "such flawed calculations" especially given the fact that top experts and scientific institutions regard the European turtle-dove as continuously declining, with their populations being at the lowest since 2003.

Birdlife said that the most up-to-date data on declining turtle-dove populations was recently tabled during a meeting of the EU’s task force on the recovery of birds, for which officials from the Ministry for Gozo’s WBRU also attended.

During the meeting experts recommended a Europe-wide suspension on the hunting of turtle-doves to mitigate the continued loss of the species, and even singled out Malta, Birdlife said.

Addressing journalists in front of Castille on Thursday, Birdlife president Darryl Grima said Birdlife is seeking justice "on this travesty of a season which risks damaging a declining species".”

The Bond physio students and academics will measure a participants’ blood pressure, ankle hip and shoulder strength, motion and flexibility, ear health, and body composition. The data collected from these checks will be entered into the WBRU database of both pro and recreational surfers, with participants receiving a report on how their results compare and outlining suggested areas they may like to work on or address with their health professionals of choice.

The fitness data collected will be compared to professional surfers such as Mick Fanning (Australian), Kelly Slater (American) and Stephanie Gilmore (Australian).

They will also measure strength and flexibility, and will conduct a bio-impedance analysis, which is great practical experience for physio students to get hands-on experience.

Assistant Professor of Physiotherapy James Furness overseas students during this practical experience. He has a background in musculoskeletal physiotherapy and he conducts innovative and novel research in the sports of surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, and swimming.
