Akita (秋田, autumn ricefield) is a Japanese name and may refer to:
Akita (秋田市, Akita-shi) is the capital city of Akita Prefecture, Japan, and has been designated a core city since April 1, 1997. As of May 2015, the city had an estimated population of 317,236 and a population density of 350 persons per km². The total area was 906.09 square kilometres (349.84 sq mi).
The area of present-day Akita was part of ancient Dewa Province, and has been inhabited for thousands of years. The Jizōden ruins within the city limits are a major archaeological site with artifacts from the Japanese Paleolithic period through the Jomon and Yayoi periods. During the Nara period, the Yamato court established Akita Castle in 733 AD to bring the local Emishi tribes under its control. The area was ruled by a succession of local samurai clans in the Sengoku period, before coming under the control of the Satake clan of Kubota Domain during the Edo period. Under the Tokugawa shogunate, a castle town developed around Kubota Castle.
With the start of the Meiji period, Kubota Domain was abolished, and its castle town divided into the towns of Akita and Kubota. Akita Prefecture was established in 1871, and Shima Yoshitake was named the first governor. Ancient Akita District was divided into Kitaakita and Minamiakita Districts in 1878. Most of Akita town burned down in a great fire on April 30, 1886.
Akita (秋田, lit. "autumn ricefield") is a Japanese surname. Notable people with the surname include:
Kheda is a town and a municipality in Kheda district in the Indian state of Gujarat. Kheda, also known as Kaira, is 35 km from Ahmedabad. The National Highway no. 8 connecting Ahmedabad and Mumbai passes through Kheda. It forms the administrative center of Kheda District.
The town of Kheda passed to the Babi family early in the eighteenth century, with whom it remained until 1763, when it was taken by the Marathas.The babi family which ruled kheda shifted to Khambat and now most of that family lives in Ahmedabad. The last head of the kheda family was Sahibzada Ahmed Siddique Hussain khanji Dilawar khanji babi who was married to Bima Rahim sultana bakhte babi sahiba of Junagadh and issued a Daughter named Bima Nasreen sultana bakhte babi who is married to Sahibzada Anis Muhammad khanji babi of Devgam A house of Junagadh state. The Marathas ceded the district to the British in 1803, and it became part of the Bombay Presidency of British India. It was a large military station until 1830, when the cantonment was removed to Deesa. Gujjars established many villages in the Kheda District area, as did Jats and other groups.
Kaira is a mostly neotropical genus of orb-weaving spider with 16 described species. They occur from South America up to the southern and eastern USA.
They spin small webs from which they hang upside down and attract male moths that fly into a basket formed by their legs. They use a moth pheromone for this, which resembles the one used by the bolas spiders of the genus Mastophora. The two genera are not closely related, although they belong to the same family. Thus, the same moth-catching behavior must have evolved independently in the two genera.
All species are pale yellow-white with scattered, small, white, brown and black random spots, or in some species transverse bands. Females have a body length of about four to ten millimeters. Males are less than half the size of females and less pigmented.
Kaira specimens are uncommon in arachnologist collections, and the females of different species are difficult to separate. Females and immatures can be confused with species of the not closely related genus Pozonia.
Kheda Lok Sabha constituency (formerly Kaira Lok Sabha constituency) (Gujarati: ખેડા લોકસભા મતવિસ્તાર) is one of the 26 Lok Sabha (parliamentary) constituencies in Gujarat state in western India.
Presently, Kheda Lok Sabha constituency comprises seven Vidhan Sabha (legislative assembly) segments. These are:

It goes over my head
It goes over my head
I don't understand I word I said
Just went over my head
I can stick around me
I don't want this to be
Walk right over and get it for free
I can stick around me
What a way for me to be myself
I'm a victory for my condition
I can pirouette to something else
I can get away or reposition
I'm astounded I can do it alone
You're around and I'm not ready to go
Too completely of my face and alone
It's all I lie around
I've got somewhere to go
I don't need you to know
Stop believing I'm going to slow
I've got somewhere to go
What a way for me to be myself
I'm a victory for my condition
I can pirouette to something else
I can get away or reposition
I'm astounded I can do it alone
You're around and I'm not ready to go
To completely of my face and alone
Its all I lie around
