Notably:

Notably: It is Russian poet Anna Akhmatova’s birthday (1889). She was born of a Ukrainian father and Russian mother in Odesa, one of the Ukrainian cities under Russian assault at the moment. On June 18 (2022), The Times was reporting from Odesa: “In a nation at war, and a city aching for some semblance of normality, the Odesa Opera reopened for the first time since the Russian invasion began, asserting civilization against the barbarism unleashed from Moscow. The performance on Friday in the magnificent Opera Theater, opened in 1810 on the plateau above the now shuttered Black Sea port, began with an impassioned rendering of the Ukrainian national anthem. Images of wheat swaying in the wind formed the backdrop, a reminder of the grain from its fertile hinterland that long made Odesa rich but now sits in silos as war rages and global food shortages grow.”

 It is also Bob Fosse’s birthday (1927). The great choreographer and director included “All That Jazz,” an autobiographical work of great exuberance and existential finality that culminates in the fabulous scene below. More grimly, given what the Trumps and DeSantises of the world are doing with it, it was on this day in 1972 that Nixon signed Title IX into law, launching a revolution in gender equality in sports and any other activity in colleges and universities underwritten by federal dollars.

FlaglerLive

Here is my gift, not roses on your grave,
not sticks of burning incense.
You lived aloof, maintaining to the end
your magnificent disdain.
You drank wine, and told the wittiest jokes,
and suffocated inside stifling walls.
Alone you let the terrible stranger in,
and stayed with her alone.
Now you’re gone, and nobody says a word
about your troubled and exalted life.
Only my voice, like a flute, will mourn
at your dumb funeral feast.
Oh, who would have dared believe that half-crazed I,
I, sick with grief for the buried past,
I, smoldering on a slow fire,
having lost everything and forgotten all,
would be fated to commemorate a man
so full of strength and will and bright inventions,
who only yesterday it seems, chatted with me,
hiding the tremor of his mortal pain.

–“Here Is My Gift,” by Anna Akhmatova.

    Your Daily Cartoon looks like it was created by a Marxist. You have the right to print your opinions but I wish you would move from Florida to California or New York.

    Franklin: I was born and raised in Florida, were you? I have wish many away over the years and the staff of Flagler Live was not a part of that wish. If you don’t like it here, well you know. Do us all a favor.
