THE ZENITH, 2022 by Cara Romero
The zenith is the imaginary point directly “above”… opposite of the gravity point below, it’s the highest point on the celestial sphere. This photograph features George Alexander (Mvskoke Creek) floating in a field of indigenous white corn strung up on a fishing line in “space”. A lighthearted composition addressing the futurity of our precious foodways—in an indigenous future, we take our past with us. We remember that while life and culture is always changing, some things are ever-permanent.

Lilian Braithwaite (with George Alexander) in Saturday to Monday at the St James's Theatre, 1904
"Her wit, for which she was noted, had a keen edge; she saw through the weaknesses and eccentricities of her fellow-beings with deadly clarity, and what she said went the rounds of the dressing-rooms. When asked what a certain actress had gone to America to play—'I don't know,' said Lilian. 'It can't have been a very big part, because she went on a very small boat.' — Denys Blakelock

Over the years, D'arcy had written many accounts of his clashes. This one in The Coolgardie Miner is among his most polished: a brief tale of resolute bravery, of savage blacks confronted, of duty done, restraint shown and lives saved:
. . . When we were all in camp some thirty to forty blacks came rushing out from the rocks about 200 yards from us; they were fully armed with spears and clubs, and were assisted by their women in carrying spare weapons. We had only two small revolvers; Alexander took as his weapon a half axe, and we advanced to meet them, thinking they would retreat; but they made one bold rush, and threw spears at all of us. Galway narrowly escaped getting struck. I had no alternative left but to fire to try and make them retreat, but this they stubbornly refused to do.
Finding that they were surrounding our camp, we beat our way through the ring and caught our horses. They made every effort to cut us off, but we managed at great risk to catch and saddle our hacks. Seeing that our lives were in danger, and knowing that a party of six men were camped one mile and a half away, Galway galloped down and asked them to assist us or lend a rifle. The latter request was complied with, and some of the men went out to muster their horses. The natives were still fighting to gain possession of our camp. When Galway returned I managed to make them retreat, using no more violence than was actually necessary to defend life and property.

How does drivers call each other based on Grill the Grid
Drivers calling each other GTG
So, I did a little analysis on how the drivers are referring to each other in the last Grill the Grid video!!
You need to read the line to see how that driver is calling the ones in the columns.
Some conclusions :
Lando and Lewis are mostly referenced by their names as his Zhou but that's a specific case.
Checo and Danny have nicknames
Charles went all out on the name/surname combo
Max, Logan, Alex and Estie loves calling the others by their names only
Lando uses surnames unless your his friend, (ex)teammate or Lewis
Oscar uses surnames unless your Max, Lando, Logan or Zhou
George says Lance but Lance says Russell
Nico called George "Georgie" (while saying he has feminine lips...so what you want with that!)
There are many more things to read into this... In a more serious way or with shipping glasses.
You can see the table better with the link, if you want!

watching the front positions of f1: Same 5 guys trading off finishing positions with each other every week
watching the midfield/backrunners of f1: Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon are roleplaying Javert and Hugh Jackman in a Les Miserables fight to mutually assured destruction over a no-points position. Lewis Hamilton is going to physically fight his own car to the death. Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo are going to physically fight each other to the death, but Daniel has a disadvantage because Lance Stroll has a sniper rifle aimed at his head. The Saubers are rewriting the federalist papers in the pits. Kevin Magnussen has planted a bomb on the track, and the blast has inevitably caught a Williams.

OKAY SO HERE ARE RANDOM HAMILTON THE MUSICAL FACTS NO ONE ASKED FOR
• After Maria mentions she is "helpless" in Say No To This, Eliza doesn't mention it for the rest of the play
• In That Would Be Enough, Eliza says: "I wrote to the general a month ago". In Stay Alive we can see her writing the letter
• In Take A Break, when Angelica and Eliza reunite and say each other's names there is a slight pause for "and Peggy"
• In Stay Alive (reprise), Phillip says to Eliza "Mom, I'm sorry for forgetting what you taught me" because Eliza taught him how to count to 10 in Take A Break and he thought that mr. Eaker counted to 10 even though he didn't
• Phillip had trouble with number 7 in Take A Break, got shot at number 7 and died at Sept-7 (guess it wasn't exactly his lucky number)
• Burr always repeats that he's willing to wait for it and Alexander always repeats that he's not throwing away his shot, but in The World Was Wide Enough, Burr doesn't wait for it and shoots Alexander and Alexander throws away his shot by aiming his pistol at the sky
• In Hurricane, Alexander says: "I couldn't seem to die" and the backing vocals/ensemble say: "Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it.." because Burr is going to shoot him in 9 songs
• If we count all of the songs in Hamilton + Lauren's interlude, there is exactly 47 songs. 47 is also the age Alexander Hamilton died at
• In Best Of Wives And Best Of Women both Alexander and Eliza say exactly 37 words, which is also how many songs they were married for in the musical
• In Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story when Eliza says: "I speak out against slavery," Washington makes a surprised face behind her because he owned around 120 slaves
• In What'd I miss when Jefferson gets the letter from Washington he says: "Sally, be a lamb, darlin' won't you open it," reffering to a slave of his

D'arcy returned empty-handed to Coolgardie, paused for a few weeks and set out for Mount Margaret with two prospectors, George Alexander and Michael Galway, and two fresh new chums.
