On the meaning of the word "Homeland" in nationalist thinking
"The homeland is the essential spiritual and physical family that unites the land of the ancestors and maintains its traditions. The village, the home country, are not the homeland. The motherland excludes both the idea of LOCAL as well as the idea of UNIVERSAL. The mind must not try to delimit "the homeland" to be delimited by the territory of a certain state... the motherland is also not a coalition of special interest groups, or some solidarity of civil or military adventurers who are in search of gains or glory from someone else. The motherland pre-exists, like the race; we commune in the motherland by the heart... it exists to higher degrees and does not fit into a precise framework of the state. It starts with the territory, but is beyond just the Breton borders, to places far away. Some shores across the Channel are for us, a little bit of motherland. Thus Brittany, Alsace, Flanders are homelands within other larger, more crowded homelands: Celtia, Germania"

Marsupials glow under UV light – and until recently, no one had ever captured it on camera.
For the first time, a wild eastern quoll – a rare, carnivorous marsupial found only in Tasmania – has been photographed glowing in ultraviolet. The shot, taken by Australian photographer Ben Alldridge, reveals the quoll’s fur shimmering with biofluorescence, a neon-like glow created when fur absorbs UV light and re-emits it at a visible wavelength.
Other mammals – from wombats to polar bears – have been known to glow, but this is the first time the phenomenon has been documented in a quoll in its natural habitat.

Young and Gloning (2004) trace the development of German from its earliest documented forms to contemporary usage by analyzing primary texts from each historical period. Rather than presenting language change as a purely abstract linguistic process, they examine how social, political, religious, cultural, and technological forces shaped German over time. The book includes translations and linguistic commentary on texts ranging from Old High German religious writings and medieval legal codes to Luther’s Bible, nineteenth-century scientific prose, and modern media discourse. It provides a text-centered approach to the history of German language, literacy, and communication.
