Urge Overkill - Sister Havana
Music Appreciation
Released on June 8, 1993 as a single from the album "Saturation," Urge Overkill's Sister Havana is a standout track with a cool guitar riff that represents the band's unique sound that combines elements of punk, glam, and garage rock. The song's lyrics tell the story of a man who is infatuated with a woman named Havana.
The music video, which was directed by Paul Andresen and George Dougherty, features the band driving and playing in various locations around Little Havana, Miami. There is even a scene of them riding in the Everglades.
In an interview, band member Eddie "King" Roeser implied that the song may have had an unintentional political statement, "In hindsight, you can see it as Urge's first foray into geopolitics. The protagonist, Urge, or the US, is trying to woo the woman, who could be Cuba."

Robina Nicol
Photography Appreciation
Robina Nicol, born on June 7, 1861, in Shetland, Scotland, was a remarkable figure who left an indelible mark on New Zealand's history as both a photographer and a suffragist. Her family emigrated to New Zealand in 1874.
She developed a passion for photography at a time when the medium was still in its infancy. She captured images of local people and places, including her family. She had a keen eye in capturing images that conveyed the beauty and essence of her surroundings.
Although she was considered an "amateur" photographer, her dedication to the craft established herself as a well-known photographer. Additionally, she played a significant role in the suffrage movement, being a signer of the 1893 Women's Suffrage Petition, which ultimately won women the right to vote.
