最长寿的哺乳动物

大象在地球上所有已知哺乳动物中是最长寿的，能活60~70年。

而人工饲养的大象比野生象寿命会更长。曾有报道称，一种生活在格拉帕克斯群岛的长寿象，能活上180年到200年，这可是惊人的高寿了。

It's World Elephant Day! A reminder to hello protect these amazing animals. On my trip to Laos, I made a point of visiting an elephant sanctuary, so I booked a tour with @mandalao_elephants to have a great day with them. After an educational introduction and some safety tips, we met the elephants for feeding and bathing, which involved throwing buckets of water at them and scrubbing the rest of the mud off.

横浜赤レンガ倉庫から近い象の鼻パーク

横浜赤レンガ倉庫から近い「象の鼻パーク」は、横浜開港150周年を記念して整備されてオープンした公園。

赤レンガ倉庫から歩いて5分以内で着くところにあります。

堤防の形が象の鼻に似ていることから「象の鼻パーク」となったそうです♪

よく行っていたのに、名前の由来を知らず、、、。さっき調べたので、メモ程度に投稿します😊

some favs from 2022, in no particular order:

… at least 2022 was a good year for music :)

(ps. i stopped using spotify this year and the only thing i miss is the music discovery — what did i miss? what were your favs?)

White Cat Legend s2e08 English subs

Oh boy, for an episode I didn't translate I sure have a lot of notes for this one.

So this is basically the official translation of this episode, transcribed by yours truly, with minor edits and additions - mostly tenses or that one time where Yi Zhihua's name was translated as flower.

Ministry of Justice is what I used to translate as Ministry of Punishments; it would seem that the justice translation is more accurate for the Tang time period - sorry for the confusion and not checking more thoroughly earlier.

On the other hand, Bodyguard was translated in the official subs as Captain which I don't think fits the established translations of the word or Qiu Shenji's actual duties. Still, it's going to be in the future episodes, so I begrudgingly went with Captain.

Similarly, Aide to the Imperial Secretary was translated by them as Grand Chancellor. This one's a tad dodgy, since I haven't been able to find a lot of information on the title, especially in Tang dynasty, and things get muddy with the Han dynasty Secretariat becoming the Department of State Affairs and all, but I'm pretty sure this is neither the Grand Chancellor nor the Minister (or even Vice Minister) of the department. After a lot of thinking and reading, I believe something like Aide to the Chancellor might be an appropriate translation, but again, I just haven't been able to find enough information on what the title entailed to say for sure... I don't think this title appears anywhere else in the future, so Aide it is.

They also tactfully translated eunuch as chamberlain and like. I have zero idea why, but it will also be in episode 12, so chamberlain stayed.

Didn't edit the OP or ED at all, because they'll be hardcoded in ep10-12.

Also, there were some lines that were missing/timed really weirdly in the version of the video I have, so I'm sorry the English and the Chinese are out of sync there.

There is also one line which I'm having a lot of trouble with, because it's supposed to be the same here and in a future episode, but the future episode which I can't change has a really weird translation, so. I dunno. I ended up going with a translation that makes sense, will think what to do with episode 12 later.

-----

The plan for the future is: do the same thing for episode 9 next week, then make all the additions for episodes 10-12 - that will hopefully take less time and I might manage more than one episode in a week, but we'll see - and then finally reconcile what I've done for episodes 1-7 with the official versions (I'll also check for any mistakes and missed lines). I have also finally figured out how to hard-code subs, so I'll do a prettified hard-subbed release of the whole season at some later point (probably a week or two after posting the last episode). I promise to actually figure out all the continuity then.

One of Kyoto’s favourite Cherry blossom spots is this picturesque street along the Takase River in the heart of Kyoto! You can walk and enjoy the cherry trees along the embankment from Nijō-Kiyamachi to Jujo Dori, although that would be quite a walk. The central part is between Sanjo Dori and Shijo Dori. There are many bars, restaurants, and shops in this part of Kyoto, and with patience, you can spot some Maiko strolling along in colourful kimonos.

Kaohsiung, Taiwan -- Elephant Gym 大象體操 will be releasing their 10 year anniversary album World on December 14 via Topshelf Records. Last week, the trio released two tracks from the upcoming record "Happy Prince ft. YILE LIN" and an orchestral rework of their 2013 song "夜洋風景 Ocean In The Night," featuring Hom Shenhao (of punk act Touming Magazine) on vocals.

Hearing the orchestra version of "夜洋風景 Ocean In The Night" left me breathless. Having listened to the band over the last 5 years, it's incredible to hear how they've developed their sound throughout the years. Both "Happy Prince" and "夜洋風景 Ocean In The Night" show an evolution in their style while still maintaining an unique vibe. The added brass and woodwind instruments add another dimension to Elephant Gym 大象體操 that is even more full-bodied and lush. Truly hoping they have more tracks like this in the future.

Summary:

The film tells the story of Sun Wukong, one who is a divine body walker and one who is mortal, one seeking kindness and the other repaying kindness. Regardless of Tang Seng's obstruction, Sun Wukong wanted to repay the little demon Yueru, but under the influence of the Qingxin Mantra, he split Wukong into two, one who was dedicated to repaying kindness and the other Xingzhe who practiced with one thought. Wukong, who is dedicated to repaying kindness, accidentally destroys the conspiracy of Xinyuehu, the general of the heavenly court. Xingzhe of one thought is determined to break up the marriage of the Yellow-Robed Monster who came down to earth without permission. Wukong, who has lost his divine body, and Xingzhe, who has lost his magic power, not only have to deal with the hypocrisy of the gods of the heavens, but also face the wrath of the demon king with all-powerful magic power. They also have to find their inner memories and beliefs. On the demon-slaying stage, facing the demon-slaying sword that slashed at Yueru and Xingzhe at the same time, how should Wukong choose? Can Wukong and Xingzhe, who have realized the true meaning of great love, become one and embark on the journey of learning the scriptures again? Can Wukong see Yueru who has been waiting for thousands of years again, and repay his kindness?
