This is Batman. The title is a reference to Koko the gorilla, who was taught American sign language. She combined words that she knew to refer to a kitten as "all ball". I've always loved that.
Samarkand is a city in southeastern Uzbekistan and among the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Central Asia. Samarkand is the capital of the Samarkand Region and a district-level city, that includes the urban-type settlements Kimyogarlar, Farhod and Khishrav. With 551,700 inhabitants (2021)] it is the third-largest city in Uzbekistan.
There is evidence of human activity in the area of the city dating from the late Paleolithic Era. Though there is no direct evidence of when Samarkand was founded, several theories propose that it was founded between the 8th and 7th centuries BC. Prospering from its location on the Silk Road between China, Persia and Europe, at times Samarkand was one of the largest cities in Central Asia, and was an important city of the empires of Greater Iran. By the time of the Persian Achaemenid Empire, it was the capital of the Sogdian satrapy. The city was conquered by Alexander the Great in 329 BC, when it was known as Markanda, which was rendered in Greek as Μαράκανδα. The city was ruled by a succession of Iranian and Turkic rulers until it was conquered by the Mongols under Genghis Khan in 1220.
The city is noted as a centre of Islamic scholarly study and the birthplace of the Timurid Renaissance. In the 14th century, Timur made it the capital of his empire and the site of his mausoleum, the Gur-e Amir. The Bibi-Khanym Mosque, rebuilt during the Soviet era, remains one of the city's most notable landmarks. Samarkand's Registan square was the city's ancient centre and is bounded by three monumental religious buildings. The city has carefully preserved the traditions of ancient crafts: embroidery, goldwork, silk weaving, copper engraving, ceramics, wood carving, and wood painting. In 2001, UNESCO added the city to its World Heritage List as Samarkand – Crossroads of Cultures.
Modern Samarkand is divided into two parts: the old city, which includes historical monuments, shops, and old private houses; and the new city, which was developed during the days of the Russian Empire and Soviet Union and includes administrative buildings along with cultural centres and educational institutions. On 15 and 16 September 2022, the city hosted the 2022 SCO summit.
Samarkand has a multicultural and plurilingual history that was significantly modified by the process of national delimitation in Central Asia. Many inhabitants of the city are native or bilingual speakers of the Tajik language, whereas Uzbek is the official language and Russian is also widely used in the public sphere, as per Uzbekistan's language policy.
Paraphrased from wikipedia:
The Burrunan dolphin (Tursiops australis) is a species of bottlenose dolphin found in parts of Victoria, Australia. It was recognised as a species only in 2011. By size, the Burrunan dolphin is between the other two species of bottlenose dolphin There are only two resident populations of the Burrunan dolphin; one in Port Phillip and these ones from the Gippsland Lakes. Their combined population has been estimated as about 150 dolphins (100 in Port Phillip and 50 in Gippsland).
The dolphin's common name, Burrunan, is an Aboriginal name in the Boonwurrung, Woiwurrung and Taungurung languages, meaning "large sea fish of the porpoise kind".

Saint Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, also known as The National Cathedral and Collegiate Church of Saint Patrick, Dublin, or in the Irish language as Árd Eaglais Naomh Pádraig, founded in 1191, is the larger of Dublin's two Church of Ireland cathedrals, and the largest church in Ireland, with a 43-metre (140 feet) spire. The other cathedral, Christ Church, is the diocesan cathedral of the diocese of Dublin and Glendalough... "Wikipedia"
The 26th of April was one of those days where I woke up, and the whole world was just not the place I wanted to be today. Too loud, too busy, too many things going wrong. These days happen, they're part and parcel of dealing with mental health issues like PTSD. Even with Blue's help, today is a struggle. And that's okay. Now if Foxtrot could please stop pulling a Tobago and picking up on my sour mood, it would be very much appreciated. Funny how many horrible words horsemen will use to describe their horses - if we really hated them half as much as our language sometimes suggests, we wouldn't be horsemen at all!
This guy came up to us and was really trying his best to tell us something and pointing across the street. But, unfortunately, none of us could speak Chinese, so we just kinda nodded and and looked that way and he eventually moved on...
SN/NC: Solanum lycopersicum, Solanaceae Family
This beautiful plant or vegetable commonly known as a tomato plant, which belongs to the nightshade family, Solanaceae. The species originated in Central and South America. The Nahuatl (Aztec language) word tomatl gave rise to the Spanish word "tomate", from which the English word tomato originates.
Numerous varieties of tomato are widely grown in temperate climates across the world, with greenhouses allowing its production throughout the year and in cooler areas. The plants typically grow to 1–3 meters (3–10 ft) in height and have a weak stem that often sprawls over the ground and vines over other plants. It is a perennial in its native habitat, and grown as an annual in temperate climates. An average common tomato weighs approximately 100 grams (4 oz). Its use as a food originated in Mexico, and spread throughout the world following the Spanish colonization of the Americas. Tomato is consumed in diverse ways, including raw, as an ingredient in many dishes, sauces, salads, and drinks. While tomatoes are botanically berry-type fruits, they are considered culinary vegetables, being ingredients of savory meals.

"You've got a way with words
Maybe it's charming
Text during the party
Sure that could suffice

You call to flatter me all night, all night
But I don’t know if you can speak my, speak my

Get impatient (Would ya)
Hate it if I wanna keep a little of this tension

When the first wave of European immigrants first settled in Sheboygan, many of them had various forms of Germanic origins. The first weekend in August has traditionally been Bratwurst Days locally. While the city has become much more culturally diverse (more than 25 languages spoken in homes) the tradition remains. Ah, the noble bratwurst!
I happened to bike past Blue harbor resort and saw a TV station crew filming a news segment about this year's Brat Days, so I had to stop to take a photo or two.
Was putting some pizzas in the oven this evening when this little cat caught my eye. Its the top of a catfood jar that I bought my lovely fiance to use as a sweetie jar.

Inside the huge 57 metre convex concrete column that symbolises the growth of the Afrikaans language and which dominates the Afrikaans Language Monument near Paarl.
The Afrikaans Language Monument (Afrikaans: Afrikaanse Taalmonument) is located on a hill overlooking Paarl, Western Cape Province, South Africa. Officially opened on 10 October 1975, it commemorates the semicentenary of Afrikaans being declared an official language of South Africa separate from Dutch. Also, it was erected on the 100th anniversary of the founding of Genootskap van Regte Afrikaners (the Society of Real Afrikaners) in Paarl, the organisation that helped strengthen Afrikaners' identity and pride in their language.
The monument, surprisingly post-modern for the product of an authoritarian right-wing state, consists of various tapering structures of a convex and concave nature, symbolising the influences of different languages and cultures on Afrikaans itself, as well as political developments in South Africa, as follows:
* three columns symbolise the European heritage of the language. The columns are from high to low to illustrate Europe’s diminishing influence on Afrikaans.
* three convex mounds on a podium symbolise the African influences on the language
* a wall on the stairway symbolises the influence of the Malay language and culture, placed between the curves of Western Europe and Africa as a separate entity. Yet it forms a unity with the two forces of Western Europe and Africa that merge to form the bridge that symbolically depicts the roots of Afrikaans.
* the highest column (about 57m high) symbolises the growth of Afrikaans and is open at the top. The other writer that inspired the architect, CJ Langenhoven, wrote that Afrikaans grows like a “fast-rising arch”; the second very high column represents South Africa and the declaration of the Republic of South Africa in 1960.
There is also an open stadium at the bottom of the structure where concerts and events are held.

Mānana (aka Rabbit Island)
"In the Hawaiian language, mānana means "buoyant".[1] The islet is commonly referred to as Rabbit Island, because its shape as seen from the nearby Oʻahu shore looks something like a rabbit's head and because it was once inhabited by introduced rabbits. The rabbit colony was established by John Adams Cummins in the 1880s when he ran the nearby Waimānalo plantation.[2] The rabbits were eradicated about a hundred years later because they were destroying the native ecosystem, an important seabird breeding area.
Mānana is a tuff cone with two vents or craters. The highest point on the islet rises to 361 ft (110 m). The island is 2,319 ft (707 m) long and 2,147 ft (654 m) wide and has an area of about 63 acres (25 ha). Mānana's only sand beach is a small storm beach on the west to south-west (leeward) side of the islet. This sand deposit, located above the reach of the normal waves, is about 30 ft (9.1 m) wide and curves around to the western side of the island.
Manana was formed by the Honolulu Volcanic Series. These series of eruptions are responsible for creating other tuff cones such as Punchbowl Crater.
Mānana is a State Seabird Sanctuary—home to over 10,000 wedge-tailed shearwaters, 80,000 sooty terns, 20,000 brown noddys, 5–10 Bulwer's petrels, and 10–15 red-tailed tropicbirds, and numerous Hawaiian monk seals. It is illegal to land on the islet without permission from the Hawaiʻi Department of Land and Natural Resources.[3]"

I love the Swahili language. I wish languages came easy to me. The language of East Africa came about when the Arab merchants began trading with the tribes of East Africa. It is a simple language that is so harmonic.
Lions are so fun to watch. Most of the time they are resting or sleeping just like their relatives, the domesticated cat. Gaining energy, they get up and go into their hunting posture. They can rest for hours it seems especially when I have my camera pointed at them.
Can you believe that the large city of Nairobi has these wonderful creatures roaming the national park in the middle of the city.

#39 -- Something you treasure -- 115 Pictures in 2015
My daughter & son & their children live in distant parts of the country, & lead busy lives, so the times when we can all get together are rare. We had a grand family reunion this summer, & this photo reminds me of something one of my writing teachers said. That every family has its own language -- like a short hand code -- based on shared history & family lore & jokes. So here's my family (almost all of them) with a new family joke, good-naturedly indulging my whim by posing on one of Durango's tilting benches.
