List of My Little Pony Earth ponies

In the My Little Pony franchise, the Earth ponies are ponies without a horn or wings, who usually have a special connection to nature and animals. They lack the ability to cast magic spells like the unicorn ponies, or the ability to stand on clouds like the pegasus ponies. Usually, they are the basic form of the My Little Pony toys.

Salty (album)

Salty is the second album by New Zealand rock band The Mutton Birds, released in 1993. Four songs—"The Heater," "Anchor Me," "In My Room" and "Ngaire"—reached the top 20 in the New Zealand singles chart; "The Heater" peaked at No.1.

"Don't Fight it, Marsha, It's Bigger Than Both of Us" was originally recorded by an earlier band of McGlashan's, Blam Blam Blam. "The Heater" is used as a plot device in the Christopher Brookmyre novel Be My Enemy; two central characters bond over it, and it is used as a contrast against the manufactured pop music made by a minor villain.

Reza

Reza (Arabic: رضا‎, riḍā) is a name of Arabic origin, widely used as a Persian personal name and within Iranian placenames.

Arabic etymology

The Islamic concept Reza ([ɾeˈzɒː], also transliterated as Raza, Reda, Redha, Rida, Ridha [rɪˈdˤɑ], Rizah, Rıza [ɾɯˈzɑ], is a male given name common among Muslims, and especially Persian-speakers. It comes from Arabic and means contentment.

Rida (Reza) is an Islamic concept rooted in the Qur'an and the practices. This idea of contentment is expressed in two Qur'anic verses which discuss the contentment of Allah with believers and, conversely, of believers with Allah:

Muslims believe that Allah's pleasure with the servant is expressed through His gifts both material and spiritual and the servant's pleasure with Allah is the name of his obedience to Allah's commands and submission to his will. Rida on the part of the human also includes his determination to accept Allah's decree irrespective of whether it is favourable or unfavourable.

Because the Arabic ض sound does not exist in the Persian language, Persian-speakers replace the sound with a z. This pronunciation was also adopted by other languages influenced by Persian, most of all Turkish and Urdu. In the Maghreb region, the name is spelled Reda, due to the French influence during the colonial times.

Reza (album)

Reza is an album released by Terry Gibbs in August, 1966 on Dot DLP 3726 (mono) and DLP 25726 (stereo). It was arranged and produced by Shorty Rodgers.

The album was aimed at the pop and jazz markets. Billboard reviewed the album as "swingin, but not way out."
