Love Is Everywhere (12 Photos)

From underwater kisses in Spain to playful chalk mice exchanging hearts, street art has a way of making romance visible in unexpected corners. In Melbourne, Disney princesses share a kiss, while in Italy a couple hides under a red umbrella. This collection takes us from Cologne to Baltimore, from painted hearts on walls to murals where nature itself joins the story. More: Love! (8 Photos) 1.

STREET ART UTOPIA

Wall of Voodoo, The Ugly Americans in Australia, 1988 on I.R.S. Records

Live Wall of Voodoo recorded on their 1987 tour in Australia, primarily at The Palace in Melbourne.

The cover painting is by Robert Williams (aka Robt. Wms.).

This was their last output on I.R.S. and basically the end of their label support – after this things were self-released or reissues.

My copy—via Vinyl Destination in Lowell MA—is a Canadian pressing manufactured by MCA Records Canada and pressed at Gloversville NY.

I volunteered at the Frankston Festival of Lights. Was proud to see so many free activities for families with young children. A mostly free event that spread just a little joy in a very tough time. #frankston #MelbourneAustralia

Good to see plugless Hybrids classified separately. They are mainly just somewhat more efficient petrol vehicles.
Plug in Hybrids don't deserve to count as EV's either - typically only 30% of their km are electric.
Our PHEV is nicely electric, often solar charged, around our home town & we work at driving mainly electric but over 50% of our milage is long distance - 250km return to visit mother in law and long camping holiday trips in summer. Of course using bikes a lot, minimising the car use, reduces the electric only milage. "My other car is an ebike with trailer" plus a normal bike.
