I spoke with bassist Eric "Pik Funk" Smith last nite viz Zoom Conference bass hang. His performance with Justin Timberlake led me to JT's music. The Woods concept of JT is one that dates back to Woodstock era, see Walden Pond, as I well remember. Off The Map, or Grid, is a passion many still pursue. I am beginning a new artistic project that will combine lyric, prose, paint, music, and performance, it will be call The Woods Back. It will address the troubling and life-threatening issue that there are no longer Woods for any of us to go Back TO. This publishing is my copyright of the title. 09 26 2020
History Occupation After rule by the Ottoman Empire ended there in World War I (1914–18), the Gaza area became part of the League of Nations mandate of Palestine under British rule. Before this mandate ended, the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) in November 1947 accepted a plan for the Arab-Jewish partition of Palestine under which the town of Gaza and an area of surrounding territory were to be allotted to the Arabs. The British mandate ended on May 15, 1948, and on that same day the first Arab-Israeli war began. Egyptian forces soon entered the town of Gaza, which became the headquarters of the Egyptian expeditionary force in Palestine. As a result of heavy fighting in autumn 1948, the area around the town under Arab occupation was reduced to a strip of territory 25 miles (40 km) long and 4–5 miles (6–8 km) wide. This area became known as the Gaza Strip. Its boundaries were demarcated in the Egyptian-Israeli armistice agreement of February 24, 1949. Are you a student?...
