For the Japanese / Japanese speakers is there an equivalent of Komorebi (木漏れ日) but for water reflections? (Some can be seen on a column)

As temperatures rise, Japan’s sake rice is feeling the heat
Scorching summers are changing the way sake rice performs in the brewery. Are new heat-resistant breeds the answer?

Even in late September 2019, many Hong Kong protestors still believed in non-violent, peaceful protest. Or, at the very least, were willing to give it a try. Sadly, the police were more pro-violence. In nearby areas that day, the police fired tear gas at -- and otherwise attacked -- protestors.

Stop submitting AI-generated papers. Polishing a sentence or two is fine, but submitting crap papers with little substance and chunks of word salad is wasting my time as a reviewer. And I will reject it with a three-line review. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Final round (after a week opened in the fridge). This time with 24 months aged Comté cheese. Another great match, the sake is still very much in the delicious “adult” apple juice territory. With now an added Orange wine perception . The finish is jostling.
