I think this is Banjo, who is all that's left besides Gherkin. It could be Sluggo, but I think I lost poor ole' Sluggers...

夜闌人靜，四輛跑車及重型貨車奔馳在馬路上。紅色跑車在起跑時表現得有點猶豫，好像志不在比賽。途中他遇見停泊在路旁的粉紅色跑車，停下來欲與她搭訕。搭訕不果，他隨即急起直追，引擎不斷加快，在比賽中爭先恐後，一直駛到世界的盡頭。另一方面，一輛黃色的轎車卻在清晨時分悠然自得地漫步於街上……
On the stroke of midnight, four racing cars and a truck speed along the road towards "the end of the world". They move so quickly as if they are having a race. On the other hand, a yellow car appears relaxed and strolls down the street in the morning ...
I think all I need now is a seasoned dun, a saddle, spurs, some range to ride and I'll be a real cowboy.

Think of the Maldives as a huge expanse of sea punctuated by circular coral reefs which rise up above the sea floor. Over the last couple of million years sea level has fallen by up to 100m more than a dozen times because of accumulations of fresh water ice on land caused by the earth's climate becoming cooler. What you see here is an accumulation of dead coral, perhaps broken off by storms, perhaps pushed here by a rising sea level when the ice melted about 10000 years ago. That's about 400 generations to you and I.
Tomorrow's leaders must think and act as global citizens in order to address the challenges facing humanity. Broadly defined, global citizens are people who are consciously prepared to live and work in the complex interdependent society of the 21st century and contribute to improving the common global welfare of our planet and its inhabitants.
The program aims to engage participating students as global citizens, helping them develop the knowledge, skills, values, and commitment to:
Understand the nature of globalization, including its positive and negative impacts around the world, and realize how it is transforming human society;
Appreciate the diversity of humanity in all of its manifestations, from local to global, and interact with different groups of people to address common concerns;
Recognize the critical global challenges that are compromising humanity's future and see how their complexity and interconnections make solutions increasingly difficult; and
Collaborate with different sets of stakeholders, by thinking globally and acting locally, to resolve these critical challenges and build a more equitable and sustainable world.
The session format includes lectures and discussions with an international faculty as well as formal and informal work in small groups. Topics addressed in plenary lectures and discussions include globalization and global responsibility; the social, economic, and political aspects of migration; the historical legacy of the Holocaust, human rights, humanitarian intervention; sustainable development; and the implications of the United States' influence around the world.
Participants will consider how these issues relate to their current situations and future personal, educational, and professional plans. They will also have the opportunity to develop projects and activities related to the session topic that can be implemented at their colleges and universities, in their local communities, and beyond.
Inspiring rust, peeling paint on trains - photos taken in winter of 2007 but waiting until just the special time to share - Enjoy :>)
Seagull on standby; I think they come free with the kit to make the street light. This is a pretty big crop - quite pleased the picture is reasonably shake free - in fact I added a bit of DoF effect as it was too crisp. I don't know if my Welsh line is correct cynghanedd - it says "fair seagull, dancing on light".
Mes amis francophones (et an aotrou Bara-koukoug):
on dit 'gwylan' en gallois (?Proto Celtic: *wimmāni- ), donc ''goéland" en Français mais 'gull' en Anglasis; et "gwymon" (seaweed, algues) en gallois (?PC: *wujilano-) et 'goémon' = 'wrack' (nommé aussi 'varech', espèce d'algues) en Français, mais 'seaweed' en Anglais; comment donc, pensez vous, est ce arrivé, cet échange/coïncidence?
