Earlier this week, Broadcast turned 8 years old but, as she was very busy in her second grade class learning about adverbs at the time, we had to wait to celebrate her birthday on Caturday.

"festina lente "
Festina lente (Classical Latin: [fɛsˈtiː.naː ˈlɛn.teː]) or speûde bradéōs (σπεῦδε βραδέως, pronounced [spêu̯.de bra.dé.ɔːs]) is a classical adage and oxymoron meaning "make haste slowly" (sometimes rendered in English as "more haste, less speed"[1]). It has been adopted as a motto numerous times, particularly by the emperors Augustus and Titus, then later by the Medicis and the Onslows.
The original form of the saying, σπεῦδε βραδέως speũde bradéōs, is Classical Greek, of which festina lente is the Latin translation. The words σπεῦδε and festina are second-person-singular present active imperatives, meaning "make haste", while βραδέως and lente are adverbs, meaning "slowly".
Balance between impulse and reason: To succeed, it is not enough to have energy and determination (impulse); you also need the ability to analyze and plan (reason). Festina lente reflects this balance between the force to act and the necessity to reflect beforehand.
Patience in the face of temptation: It can be interpreted as an encouragement not to be overwhelmed by the desire to rush things, whether it is in career, love, or everyday pleasures.
Hamburg - staying home is a priviledge for those that have homes. Those that need to work to survive and those on the streets are not that lucky. Do they get support?

It's another very hot day in the city and as I was walking from one place to another today I could the haze off in the distance through the view of a bridge caught my eye.
Not a bad shot for a quick one today; honestly, I'm glad I shot before 9am because it would have been difficult to find the motivation any later on in the day.
Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day.

English is a very simple language: as an adverb 'hither,' from the Old English, means to this place, added with Come equals an Invitation to Approach.
However, when used as an adjective, it means situated on this side, as in the hither side of the meadow.
Class over, now go outside and enjoy the rest of the day
Today's word is "ferny."
As in, "fern-like, fernicious, quasi-fern-like."
It's an adjective. Though I suppose you could shift it to an adverb were you to describe how one was doing something fern-esque.
"He ran like a fern. He ran fernily."
Part of speech: adverb
Origin: Old English, 13th century
1.
(Archaic) As happily; as gladly.
Examples of lief in a sentence
"She would lief go wherever he asked her to."
"Bradley did not lief join her family at their weekly supper."
It could be more symmetrical and the black bottom bit needs to be more level. However (conjunctive adverb), I don't (contraction) think that too bad a job has been done by myself (passive voice).
This image is dedicated to all the KS2 children who are undergoing the unfair and totally redundant SATs this week. I tell mine they're in an unjust system and that it means nothing, because they all get retested again at secondary school...pretty much straight away.
Let kids be kids, you dopey mofo politicians.
Meine Motivauswahl und die Art und Weise der Bearbeitung folgt dem Motto „heute so, morgen so“. Wobei die Betonung keinesfalls auf dem Adverb liegt, so als würde eine konsequente Handlungsweise vorliegen. Nein, die Betonung liegt auf dem gedehnten „soooo“ und zeigt daher die Geisteshaltung des „Laissez-faire“.
Es wundert mich immer wieder, wieso es beim Kommentieren nicht öfters zu Fehldeutungen kommt … fehlt doch jede Betonung, jedes Augenzwinkern. So bin ich wegen eines Kommentares einmal blockiert worden, und ich weiß heute noch nicht wieso.

Well today just sort of disappeared on me. One minute I was arriving at work and suddenly the entire day was gone.
It's nice that it passed so quickly, but the pace was a bit ridiculous. Luckily, it was my last day in the office this week so hopefully things calm down while I'm away.
Snapped a total of 3 photos today, this one caught my eye because of the light and since it's the best of the 3 it's now the chosen one.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

noun
2. a straightaway course or part.
adverb

It was hot today; I think I heard that it's the hottest day of the year... so far. Which sounds a little ominous, as if the temperature will keep rising until we're all forced to walk around with sprinkles or those spritzing fans....
Actually that wouldn't be so bad.
I saw another bunny downtown today, but resisted the urge to have a second bunny shot... although the temptation was real.
Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day.

pungent |ˈpənjənt|
adjective
having a sharply strong taste or smell : the pungent smell of frying onions.
• (of comment, criticism, or humor) having a sharp and caustic quality.
DERIVATIVES
pungency |ˈpənjənsē| noun
pungently
adverb
ORIGIN
late 16th cent.(in the sense [very painful or distressing] ): from Latin pungent- ‘pricking,’ from the verb pungere.
I was a disciple of a Sufi Guru/”Pir Shaheb” (originally hailing from Jaunpur in India
In one session with him he told us that Allah swt created, referring to the human physical body, this awesome power packed machine with boundless capabilities! He likened the body to a 12-cylinder car. All our lives, he said, we have been running at 2 cylinder capacity; never even bothering to discover the inherent built-in awesome power that was packed by default. One needs to strive towards achieving that full potential.
I have also found this to be true with computer software. I think I have been able to learn and use maybe 50-60 percent of features that came packed in MS Word! The rest I probably never will. So is the case with my Nikon D90. There are so many features in there that I don’t know about.
Recently, while playing with my camera I discovered a feature called “multiple exposure” (I know many of you will say just as Sherlock Holmes said.. “Elementary, my dear Watson!! For those who have this opinion please refer to my PS note at the end)!!
This is my first attempt at Multiple Exposure feature of Nikon D90. I expect you all to say “WoW!! And all the fine adjectives in the English language with a few adverbs thrown in as prefixes as well!
And for skeptics “please forever hold your tongue”.. LOL
PS: Just a note to say while all the human machines everywhere are running on 6-Cylinders, I am doing a 4 ‘below par’!!
PSS: My apologies for this rather long tirade!!
Ok, this is a photo I have been meaning to get to for some time. It is actually a tweaked (really just moved the hue a bit) and cropped version of the original below, that is earlier on my photostream. I kept meaning to post it, because I dig it, well no more waiting, hope you like it too. When I originally went to give it a title, the first word that popped up into my head was Garish (but not in a negative way, at least not in my head, if garish can be seen as a positive word), hence the name.
Definition of Garish from www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/garish . I'll take the first definition and first half of two but not 3, and certainly not the synonym "gaudy", that certainly doesn't apply. :-)

Etymology: origin unknown
Date: 1545
1 : clothed in vivid colors
2 a : excessively or disturbingly vivid b : offensively or distressingly bright : glaring

Standard Monday, hard to get motivated, but once the ball started rolling it just kept going until it was time to leave the office for the day.
Work is frequently chaotic and busy, and there's never enough time to get everything crossed off the to-do list, but that keeps things moving at a nice pace and I don't find it high stress because deadlines aren't often pressing.
Took a quick walk over one of my breaks today to see what was spring like and found a few things, but I like the way this turned out best so it was a simple winner for today.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

I was working with food colouring this evening, and as it happened, I ended up with the colours staining my hands. So what's a person who hadn't taken a daily photo yet to do?
Obviously set up a quick shot and show off the splotches of colour.
No real thought behind the composition other than the mug would provide a good contrast and was sitting on the shelf in an easy to grab spot.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

On April 7, 1521, the Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan arrived and planted the cross on the shores of Cebu, claiming the territory in the name of the King of Spain. He presented the image of the child Jesus, the Santo Niño, as baptismal gift to Hara Amihan, wife of Rajah Humabon. Hara Amihan was later named, Queen Juana in honor of Juana, mother of Carlos I. At the moment of receiving the image, it was said that Queen Juana danced with joy bearing the image of the child Jesus. With the other natives following her example, this moment was regarded as the first Sinulog.
This event is frequently used as basis for most Sinulog dances, which dramatize the coming of the Spaniards and the presentation of the Santo Niño to the Queen. A popular theme among Sinulog dances is Queen Juana holding the Santo Niño in her arms and using it to bless her people who are often afflicted by sickness caused by demons and other evil spirits.
The word Sinulog comes from the Cebuano adverb sulog which is "like water current movement," which describes the forward-backward movement of the Sinulog dance. The dance consists of two steps forward and one step backward, done to the sound of the drums.

After yesterday's purge, today was all about cleanliness. The house has been cleaned and tidied from top to bottom and while it was a lot of work, it feels refreshing to start the new year with the house just as I like it.
Well, it wasn't entirely about cleaning. I struggled with this photo, first taking the shot and secondly processing it. I could not get the vision that was in my mind onto the screen and that frustrates me very much. But I'll put the original idea back in the box and will try with a new spin another day.
Hope you've all had a great start to 2016!

Midtown Manhattan, or simply Midtown, is an area of Manhattan, New York City home to world-famous commercial zones such as Rockefeller Center, Broadway, and Times Square. Midtown Manhattan is home to the city's tallest and most famous buildings such as the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building.
Midtown, along with "Uptown" and "Downtown", is one of the three major subdivisions of Manhattan (though "Uptown" and "Downtown" can also be used as adjectives or adverbs, and can take on completely different meanings in the other boroughs, whereas the term "Midtown" cannot) and can be understood as those parts of Manhattan in neither of these two other regions - that is, all areas between 14th Street and 59th Street, from the Hudson River to the East River, about five square miles or 12 km2. The core of Midtown Manhattan is from about 31st Street to 59th Street between Third and Ninth avenues, about two square miles (this is the area most commonly referred to as "Midtown.") The "Plaza District", a term used by Manhattan real estate professionals to denote the most expensive area of midtown from a commercial real estate perspective, lies between 42nd Street and 59th Street, from Third Avenue to Seventh Avenue, about a square kilometer or half a square mile.
As New York's largest central business district, Midtown Manhattan is indisputably the busiest single commercial district in the United States, and among the most intensely and diversely used pieces of real estate in the world. The great majority of New York City's skyscrapers, including its tallest hotels and apartment towers, lie within Midtown. More than 700,000 commuters work in its offices, hotels, and retail establishments; the area also hosts many tourists, visiting residents, and students. Some areas, especially Times Square and Fifth Avenue, have massive clusters of retail establishments. Sixth Avenue in Midtown holds the headquarters of three of the four major television networks, and is one of a few global centers of news and entertainment. It is also a growing center of finance, second in importance within the United States only to Downtown Manhattan's Financial District. Times Square is also the epicenter of American theater.
