Monument Valley (Navajo: Tsé Biiʼ Ndzisgaii, pronounced [tsʰépìːʔ ǹtsɪ̀skɑ̀ìː], meaning "valley of the rocks") is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of sandstone buttes, with the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor. The most famous butte formations are located in northeastern Arizona along the Utah–Arizona state line. The valley is considered sacred by the Navajo Nation, the Native American people within whose reservation it lies.
Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Famed director John Ford used the location for a number of his Westerns. Film critic Keith Phipps wrote that "its five square miles [13 km2] have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West".

History
Before human existence, the Park was once a lowland basin. For hundreds of millions of years, materials that eroded from the early Rock Mountains deposited layer upon layer of sediment which cemented a slow and gentle uplift, generated by ceaseless pressure from below the surface, elevating these horizontal strata quite uniformly one to three miles above sea level. What was once a basin became a plateau.
Natural forces of wind and water that eroded the land spent the last 50 million years cutting into and peeling away at the surface of the plateau. The simple wearing down of altering layers of soft and hard rock slowly revealed the natural wonders of Monument Valley today.
From the visitor center, you see the world-famous panorama of the Mitten Buttes and Merrick Butte. You can also purchase guided tours from Navajo tour operators, who take you down into the valley in Jeeps for a narrated cruise through these mythical formations. Places such as Ear of the Wind and other landmarks can only be accessed via guided tours. During the summer months, the visitor center also features Haskenneini Restaurant, which specializes in both native Navajo and American cuisines, and a film/snack/souvenir shop. There are year-round restroom facilities. One mile before the center, numerous Navajo vendors sell arts, crafts, native food, and souvenirs at roadside stands.

Students were called to the front of the room (on the top floor of the Baltos mall in Bandung) to be introduced. I enjoyed seeing their traditional Sundanese costumes, with batik sarongs (required). Note: People do not dress like this every day!

To me the aboriginal characters seems like a mixture of Korean, Japanese and Chinese. It does not sound like any of these languages.Canadian aboriginal language sounds like Turkmen language in Turkmenistan.
Characters are a means of visual communication and recording a language. Civilizations throughout the world have created various characters that convey their culture and history. This project focuses purely on the form of the characters rather than their meaning.

越南藝術家斐公慶和藝術家林書楷之間無法用語言溝通，但是他們使用繪畫來取代語言，作為彼此的共同語言。這方法學將讓他們的共同創作計劃進展到和過度強調邏輯性的當代藝術截然不同的實驗空間。
Vietnamese artist Bui Cong Khanh and artist Lin Shu Kai have problem in language communication. However, they chose to use painting to replace language as their communication way. This methodology pushes their project into an experimental space, rather than the normal contemporary art, which is focus on logical narrative.

Incidentally, I regret that this page has been cut loose. Only luck was that the trader did not use spray glue, when he foresaw the image of a mat.

This is korean snack I bought from korean market. This snack’s original name is Sattobab, but it changed to just Popcorn Snack. The most boring name ever and it is not even pop corn. I understand how difficult it is to explain korea’s Satto in english. In fact, Satto means a governor of a county and it is ancient title no longer exist. The way I see it, it is inappropriate to translate directly the meaning of Satto to the snack’s name. I do not even know why the snack has such name. In short, it is funny to think about relationship between changed name in foreign language and original name in my own language.
These are hot sauces as you guess. Butts of the stick man, the stick woman and the stick dog are on fire.

The Friars Peace Garden
The concept of creating a Peace Garden within the 42 acres that make up the grounds of The Friars was first discussed in 2006 by the Prior , the Estate Manager, and the Project Manager Jayne Hoose. The idea came about because Jayne Hoose had used the site as a place of escape whilst suffering from ME and felt that producing a Peace Garden was a way of giving something back and providing an additional space which would be open to all who sought the sanctuary she had found there.
The fundraising was started with a gift of £1000 from the local Funeral director Paul Rowland. The project has also been support by Gallaghers who undertook the preparation of the site for the garden's installation. The fundraising and implementation of the project has involved over 150 different individual volunteers including pupils and staff from St Anselm's school in Canterbury.
A Lottery Grant of £46484.84 was awarded to The Friars in 2010 via Community Spaces and Groundwork UK.
The garden, in the unused main entrance to The Friars Gatehouse, was designed to provide for a quiet space accessible to a wide range of visitors incorporating different seating styles and with flat access for those with mobility problems and families using children's buggies. Texture and scent have been incorporated to widen the garden's appeal and provides interest for those with sight impairment.
The Peace Garden is divided by upright sleepers into several small themed gardens allowing the visitor to view the garden as a whole, whilst enjoying the different smaller areas of planting. The first garden entered takes up the busy stressful mood of many visitors and aims to subtly move this energy to a place of warmth and vibrancy. This then enables the visitor to take onboard the energy reduction of the wind and wave garden. Making use of soothing curves and a mauve and pale yellow palette, this is designed to invoke a mood of gentle flowing calm. The central earth and water garden with a blue and white palette encourages tranquillity and stillness. The visitor, supported by the sounds of the water features, is encouraged to rest and 'to be'
Incorporated throughout the garden are peace tiles in over 200 different languages acting as a symbol of striving for the peaceful integration of all in society - locally, nationally and internationally. Parishioners, visitors and local businesses have sponsored these tiles.
Longwood Gardens' newest water feature is the Grotto, a re-creation of the various small caves, both natural and artificial, that were employed in Europe as spiritual places and places of quiet contemplation
The proprietors of Longwood Gardens saw an opportunity to create such a space while renovating the overhead main fountain in 2017. This is how their Web site explains it:
"The design of the Longwood Grotto draws on the historic grottos that Mr. du Pont visited in Europe. The square, tripartite plan and shallow dome are classical motifs that reflect the Italianate style of the Loggia and wider garden. However, the classical language is disrupted by the rugged, rubble stone of the walls and dome inside the Grotto. The stone was sourced from the D’Amico quarry just a few miles from Longwood and selected because of its rough texture and mica inclusions. The south wall of the Grotto appears to have collapsed, apparently revealing the natural rock face of a cave. Creating the illusion of the natural through playful artifice, it is as if the Grotto has always been there."
The halo of falling water into the circular pool below clearly entertained and delighted these spectators, and me as well.
