Rector of Holy Cross, Uckfield, Canon Martin Onions, dies suddenly
Canon Martin Onions, the Rector of Uckfield, died suddenly this morning (May 22).
The announcement was made by the Churchwardens of Holy Cross, Uckfield; St Margaret's, Isfield; St Michael's, Little Horsted; and St Saviour's, Uckfield.
Father Onions, who was 51, was appointed to Uckfield just over two years ago. He succeeded the Rev Brian Wilcox who retired and moved to Norfolk in September 2011.
He was born in Shropshire and left school at 16 and trained as a heavy goods vehicle mechanic.
At the age of 20 he came to Sussex and worked at Chailey Heritage while he was exploring his vocation.
He trained at Chichester Theological College and was ordained a Deacon in 1988 and has been a priest at a number of parishes in Sussex, particularly in the Eastbourne area.
He moved to Uckfield from St Mary the Virgin, Willingdon, and the service to welcome him to the town in June 2013 was attended by the Bishop of Chichester, the Rt Rev Dr Martin Warner.
Tributes to Canon Martin Onions
Dr Martin Warner, Bishop of Chichester: "It is with profound sadness that we have announced Martin's death. In this shock of this news our immediate thoughts and prayers are with Martin's wife Gill, their family, and the parish and people of Uckfield.
"After ordination in 1988 Martin served all his ordained ministry in the Diocese of Chichester. He is a well-known and much-loved figure in the diocese. We give thanks for the vitality of his life and Christian witness, commending him to the God he served so faithfully.
"Martin, may you rest in peace and rise and in glory."
Graham Neilly, churchwarden Holy Cross Church: Father Martin came to Holy Cross Church almost two years ago and during that short time he breathed new life into our church. He has done so much for the Holy Cross and for the wider community. His enthusiasm and inspiration has endeared him to many people in the town and beyond.
Father Martin was a very positive and charismatic man, he was a friend to all. Always having time for a chat, a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. He loved being with the people of Uckfield, whether in church or around the town. He started the Youth Club in the Belmont Centre which now has 50 children registered with the club. He communicated with children at their level and was great fun for them to be with.
Holy Cross Church has much to be grateful to Father Martin for and he will never be forgotten. We will continue with the plans that he had in progress for the church, with the same enthusiasm and commitment as he had.
As a congregation we will miss him greatly and as a friend I will miss him personally.
Mervyn Griffiths, churchwarden at St Margaret's Church, Isfield: "We can't believe the news. He has been an inspiration. He was so full of vitality and so committed to us as our minister that it is almost impossible to get one's mind around the thought that he has died.
"He was so full of life and vigour and committment, mixed with a wonderful sense of humour. We were incredibly lucky to have him as our minister.
"In the relatively short time he was with us he really breathed new life into the life of the church.
"We are in shock. We loved him and enjoyed him very much. He was a lot of fun and this is very sad."
Beverley Blanch, chair of governors, and Karen Bye, advisory head teacher at Holy Cross School said on behalf of the school community: "It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of Father Martin earlier today. He was an an inspirational member of our school community, much loved and respected by both children and staff.
"He had a great sense of fun and was very committed to the school and especially enjoyed contact with the children in acts of worship which he made so lively and relevant to their lives.
"He will be missed by us all at Holy Cross School."
Louise Eastwood, Uckfield Mayor: "I only learned of the sudden passing of Martin Onions this morning. This came as a total shock to myself and the officers at the town council.
"People of the town will be aware of how much he support this town and how much fun he gave.
"Martin had a unique way in delivering the words of the Bible that made it interesting.
"On behalf of the town council I wish to send our sincere condolences to Martin's family. I feel this is a sad loss for our town and a very sad day for all who knew him and worked with him."
Duncan Bennett, Uckfield Deputy Mayor, said on his Facebook page: "Terribly saddened by the emerging news from Uckfield this morning. Thoughts are with the family of Canon Martin Onions at this tragic time. Martin had very quickly put his own distinctive stamp on the parish and his untimely loss will be felt by so very many people across Uckfield and beyond."
Chris Lawson, Uckfield Chamber of Commerce vice-president speaking for president Fiona Monson who is away: "In the two years Martin was with us he brought great fun and vigour not only to the Church but to the whole Uckfield community and will be sorely missed.
"On behalf of everyone in Uckfield Chamber I offer our sincere condolences to his wife Jill and the family."
Lynne Ireland, secretary of Uckfield Bonfire Society: "He was a lovely man and will be missed.
"He said prayers for us outside the Cinque Ports Club during the carnival for the last two years and he was willing to cooperate with us during the annual bonfire carol service which is so different from normal services with everyone turning up in costume.
"He was well up for that and last year had a mini motor bike which he rode around. He was just like that in the town too, a lot of fun."
More tributes are expected. See also comments on the Uckfield News Facebook page.


Synopsis The role of the artist as documentor and activist examined through the work of two Asians living and working in Britain, painter Bhajan Hunchar and batik-maker Shaheen Merali (b. Tanganyika, 1959).
Dancer standing on hillside. Silks blowing. Red thread. Dancers. Woman weaving. Engraving of British military attack. Dancer in circle of writing. Batik, Sari Sari Night. Shaheen Merali talking about his mother having to work in a factory when the family immigrated from Tanzania. He says that Sari Sari Night is a tribute to Indian women forced into factory and textile work, jobs that no-one else wanted. Batik. Merali describes the painting and says that women's contribution to labour is generally ignored world-wide. Photographs of Indian women working, carrying water, throwing pots, weaving baskets, machining, etc. Bhajan Hunchar talking about the communal and social aspects of embroidery in the Punjab, a non-patriarchal activity. She says that this women's work is not documented and hopes that incorporating images of embroidery in her work will help remedy that. Examples of embroidery. Hunchar's VO describes the symbols and colours. She says such work cannot be compared to any art in the West as it was created for different reasons. Woman weaving. Woman's VO reads "I arrived as a stranger, and saw my mother sat there weaving the tapestry of her ancestors. She had embarked on a journey where brown skin brushed against cotton, and I chased after her with a gift of flowers…" Flowers. Dancer. Woman weaving.
Flowers floating. Words in Punjabi, written in flower petals. Caption: "'When all else fails, take to the sword.' Guru Gobind Singh." Merali describes a batik on silk, Production Protection, as reflecting on anti-colonialist economic co-operation in the 1940s, particularly in cotton production. Gaumont Graphic newsreel item, "Flouting of the Government's salt monopoly continues…": demonstrations; Gandhi; people collecting sea-water and evaporating it. (Dandi Salt March 1930). Dancer. Woman's VO reading: "I was not killing your memories with my offering, merely showing my experiences of this land. I am part of the process, not merely part of you… my hands give birth to those who have flowers dancing on their ashes." Hunchar says that galleries in Britain exhibit work by black artists primarily to please their funders and to satisfy their equal opportunities policies. Though this does offer opportunities, if the work is categorised as "ethnic art", this can put the artists at a disadvantage. Painting. Merali talks about an "apartheid system" in galleries, but believes that it will break down. Dancer on hillside. Credits.

Q: CollectionViewController is blank There are no errors in the code that pop up and when the app loads in the simulator, it is completely blank. I think it might be a problem with the PList data not populating into the Arrays correctly but I am not sure as even the header/footer is not showing up.
Here is an example of one of the Plists (There are 4 total plists, all with the same structure, just being assigned to different objects):

Here is the code for one of the objects being assigned to an array and then pieces of those arrays being put into separate arrays to keep track of their thumbnails and names for the labels:
//BEGIN INGREDIENT ITEM DATA
    NSString *ingredientItemsPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"IngredientList" ofType:@"plist"];
    NSMutableArray *ingredientItemsArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:ingredientItemsPath];
    /*NSString *ingredientItemsPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"ingredientList" ofType:@"plist"];
    NSDictionary *ingredientItemsDict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:ingredientItemsPath];
    NSArray *ingredientItemsArray = [NSArray arrayWithArray:[ingredientItemsDict objectForKey:@"Root"]];*/
    NSMutableArray *cCalcIngredientObjects = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
    for (int index=0; index < ingredientItemsArray.count; index++)
    {
        CCalcIngredients* ingredient = [[CCalcIngredients alloc] init]; // This is your object
        NSDictionary* ingredientDict = (NSDictionary*)ingredientItemsArray[index];
        ingredient.name = ingredientDict[@"name"];
        ingredient.thumbnail = ingredientDict[@"thumbnail"];
        NSDictionary* ingredientNutritionDict = (NSDictionary*)ingredientDict[@"nutrition"];
        ingredient.calories = ingredientNutritionDict[@"calories"];
        ingredient.totalFat = ingredientNutritionDict[@"totalFat"];
        ingredient.saturatedFat = ingredientNutritionDict[@"saturatedFat"];
        ingredient.transFat = ingredientNutritionDict[@"transFat"];
        ingredient.cholesterol = ingredientNutritionDict[@"cholesterol"];
        ingredient.sodium = ingredientNutritionDict[@"sodium"];
        ingredient.totalCarbs = ingredientNutritionDict[@"totalCarbs"];
        ingredient.dietaryFiber = ingredientNutritionDict[@"dietaryFiber"];
        ingredient.proteins = ingredientNutritionDict[@"proteins"];
        [cCalcIngredientObjects addObject:ingredient];
    }
    //END INGREDIENT ITEM DATA

    NSLog(@"The ingredient items are %@", cCalcIngredientObjects);

    //array of photos
    self.photos = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
    for(CCalcMeals* item in cCalcMenuObjects){
        [self.photos addObject:item.thumbnail];
    }
    for(CCalcMeat* meat in cCalcMeatObjects){
        [self.photos addObject:meat.thumbnail];
    }
    for(CCalcSalsa* salsa in cCalcSalsaObjects){
        [self.photos addObject:salsa.thumbnail];
    }
    for(CCalcIngredients* ingredient in cCalcIngredientObjects){
        [self.photos addObject:ingredient.thumbnail];
    }
    NSLog(@"photos %@", self.photos);

NSLog prints this when I've ran it against all of the arrays that I have created:

I am trying to figure out why this is building to just a blank black simulator screen and to figure out what is going on with my Plist data and whether or not it is being built correctly.

A: Upon messing around with the code I found that I was trying to pull out the information from the Plist as an Array even though the root information is in fact a Dictionary so now I know exactly why the NSLog's I had were only returning Nil.
Thanks for the help and tips!

The Geometry of Memory
Posted by Margaret Birtley 210sc on
Join one of the world's most eminent historians, Professor Jay Winter, to hear about war, art and memory in the twentieth century. This special lecture on the visual culture of war offers a historical perspective on the legacies of war that still resonate in our contemporary world.
This is the Inaugural Public Lecture presented by the School of Philosophical, Historical and International Studies, Monash University.
This lecture examines the striking preference for horizontality as an axis of spatial memory in commemorative art. From Käthe Kollwitz's memorial sculpture for her son in Flanders, to anti-monuments after the Holocaust, to museum design at the end of the twentieth century, the observers' gaze has been drawn downward in contemplation of war and its destructive power. Other axes of visual art are used as well, but in dialogue with the horizontal. This choice is a clear break with earlier forms of celebratory commemorative art and architecture
Professor Jay M. Winter is Charles J. Stille Professor of History Emeritus at Yale University. His work focusses on World War I and its impact on the 20th century.

"However, for me this is not job done but job well begun.
"We have set ourselves an ambitious goal of unlocking extraordinary sustained growth that benefits everyone who lives and works in our City Region, ultimately making the region an overall contributor to northern and national prosperity.
"Our achievements so far give us a firm foundation upon which to build a more prosperous future for our residents and businesses, but this is a 20-year job, not a 20-minute job.
"We have shown what we can deliver with relatively modest resources. Now as a result of our Growth Deal, EU funding and other public and private sector investment we've brought into the region, we have the resources to deliver our ambitious vision for growth at a scale unprecedented in 10 years of economic partnership working."
Coun Peter Box, chairman of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, said: "We are unique among combined authorities in having the LEP as a member and the successes highlighted in this report illustrate what can be achieved by this close partnership-working between the public and private sectors."

本页面描述了如何在 [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io) 原生地部署 Flink session 集群。

* This will be replaced by the TOC
{:toc}

Flink 的原生 Kubernetes 集成仍处于试验阶段。在以后的版本中,配置和 CLI flags 可能会发生变化。

## 要求

- Kubernetes 版本 1.9 或以上。
- KubeConfig 可以查看、创建、删除 pods 和 services,可以通过`~/.kube/config` 配置。你可以通过运行 `kubectl auth can-i <list|create|edit|delete> pods` 来验证权限。
- 启用 Kubernetes DNS。
- 具有 [RBAC](#rbac) 权限的 Service Account 可以创建、删除 pods。

## Flink Kubernetes Session

### 启动 Flink Session

按照以下说明在 Kubernetes 集群中启动 Flink Session。

Session 集群将启动所有必需的 Flink 服务(JobManager 和 TaskManagers),以便你可以将程序提交到集群。
注意你可以在每个 session 上运行多个程序。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh
{% endhighlight %}

所有 Kubernetes 配置项都可以在我们的[配置指南]({% link deployment/config.zh.md %}#kubernetes)中找到。

**示例**: 执行以下命令启动 session 集群,每个 TaskManager 分配 4 GB 内存、2 CPUs、4 slots:

在此示例中,我们覆盖了 `resourcemanager.taskmanager-timeout` 配置,为了使运行 taskmanager 的 pod 停留时间比默认的 30 秒更长。
尽管此设置可能在云环境下增加成本,但在某些情况下能够更快地启动新作业,并且在开发过程中,你有更多的时间检查作业的日志文件。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dresourcemanager.taskmanager-timeout=3600000
{% endhighlight %}

系统将使用 `conf/flink-conf.yaml` 中的配置。
如果你更改某些配置,请遵循我们的[配置指南]({% link deployment/config.zh.md %})。

如果你未通过 `kubernetes.cluster-id` 为 session 指定特定名称,Flink 客户端将会生成一个 UUID 名称。

注意 如果要启动 session 集群运行 PyFlink 作业, 你需要提供一个安装有 Python 和 PyFlink 的镜像。
请参考下面的[章节](#custom-flink-docker-image).

### 自定义 Flink Docker 镜像

如果要使用自定义的 Docker 镜像部署 Flink 容器,请查看 [Flink Docker 镜像文档]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/docker.zh.md %})、[镜像 tags]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/docker.zh.md %}#image-tags)、[如何自定义 Flink Docker 镜像]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/docker.zh.md %}#customize-flink-image)和[启用插件]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/docker.zh.md %}#using-plugins)。
如果创建了自定义的 Docker 镜像,则可以通过设置 [`kubernetes.container.image`]({% link deployment/config.zh.md %}#kubernetes-container-image) 配置项来指定它:

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dresourcemanager.taskmanager-timeout=3600000 \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName>
{% endhighlight %}

请参考下面的 Dockerfile 构建一个安装了 Python 和 PyFlink 的 docker 镜像:
{% highlight Dockerfile %}
FROM flink

# 安装 python3 和 pip3
RUN apt-get update -y && \
    apt-get install -y python3.7 python3-pip python3.7-dev && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

# 安装 Python Flink
RUN pip3 install apache-flink
{% endhighlight %}

构建镜像,命名为**pyflink:latest**:
{% highlight bash %}
sudo docker build -t pyflink:latest .
{% endhighlight %}
接下来将下面的命令行 [`kubernetes.container.image`]({% link deployment/config.zh.md %}#kubernetes-container-image) 参数值配置成刚刚构建的镜像名,并运行启动一个 PyFlink session 集群:

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dresourcemanager.taskmanager-timeout=3600000 \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=pyflink:latest
{% endhighlight %}

### 将作业提交到现有 Session

使用以下命令将 Flink 作业提交到 Kubernetes 集群。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run -d -t kubernetes-session -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> examples/streaming/WindowJoin.jar
{% endhighlight %}

使用以下命令将 PyFlink 作业提交到 Kubernetes 集群。
{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run -d -t kubernetes-session -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> -pym scala_function -pyfs examples/python/table/udf
{% endhighlight %}

### 访问 Job Manager UI

有几种方法可以将服务暴露到外部(集群外部) IP 地址。
可以使用 [`kubernetes.rest-service.exposed.type`]({% link deployment/config.zh.md %}#kubernetes-rest-service-exposed-type) 进行配置。

- `ClusterIP`:通过集群内部 IP 暴露服务。
该服务只能在集群中访问。如果想访问 JobManager ui 或将作业提交到现有 session,则需要启动一个本地代理。
然后你可以使用 `localhost:8081` 将 Flink 作业提交到 session 或查看仪表盘。

{% highlight bash %}
$ kubectl port-forward service/<ServiceName> 8081
{% endhighlight %}

- `NodePort`:通过每个 Node 上的 IP 和静态端口(`NodePort`)暴露服务。`<NodeIP>:<NodePort>` 可以用来连接 JobManager 服务。`NodeIP` 可以很容易地用 Kubernetes ApiServer 地址替换。
你可以在 kube 配置文件找到它。

- `LoadBalancer`:使用云提供商的负载均衡器在外部暴露服务。
由于云提供商和 Kubernetes 需要一些时间来准备负载均衡器,因为你可能在客户端日志中获得一个 `NodePort` 的 JobManager Web 界面。
你可以使用 `kubectl get services/<ClusterId>-rest` 获取 EXTERNAL-IP 然后手动构建负载均衡器 JobManager Web 界面 `http://<EXTERNAL-IP>:8081`。

  警告! JobManager 可能会在无需认证的情况下暴露在公网上,同时可以提交任务运行。

- `ExternalName`:将服务映射到 DNS 名称,当前版本不支持。

有关更多信息,请参考官方文档[在 Kubernetes 上发布服务](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#publishing-services-service-types)。

### 连接现有 Session

默认情况下,Kubernetes session 以后台模式启动,这意味着 Flink 客户端在将所有资源提交到 Kubernetes 集群后会退出。使用以下命令来连接现有 session。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> -Dexecution.attached=true
{% endhighlight %}

### 停止 Flink Session

要停止 Flink Kubernetes session,将 Flink 客户端连接到集群并键入 `stop`。

{% highlight bash %}
$ echo 'stop' | ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> -Dexecution.attached=true
{% endhighlight %}

#### 手动清理资源

Flink 用 [Kubernetes OwnerReference's](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/garbage-collection/) 来清理所有集群组件。
所有 Flink 创建的资源,包括 `ConfigMap`、`Service`、`Pod`,已经将 OwnerReference 设置为 `deployment/<ClusterId>`。
删除 deployment 后,所有其他资源将自动删除。

{% highlight bash %}
$ kubectl delete deployment/<ClusterID>
{% endhighlight %}

## Flink Kubernetes Application

### 启动 Flink Application

Application 模式允许用户创建单个镜像,其中包含他们的作业和 Flink 运行时,该镜像将按需自动创建和销毁集群组件。Flink 社区提供了可以构建[多用途自定义镜像]({% link deployment/resource-providers/standalone/docker.zh.md %}#customize-flink-image)的基础镜像。

{% highlight dockerfile %}
FROM flink
RUN mkdir -p $FLINK_HOME/usrlib
COPY /path/of/my-flink-job-*.jar $FLINK_HOME/usrlib/my-flink-job.jar
{% endhighlight %}

使用以下命令启动 Flink Application。
{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run-application -p 8 -t kubernetes-application \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName> \
  local:///opt/flink/usrlib/my-flink-job.jar
{% endhighlight %}

{% highlight dockerfile %}
FROM flink

# 安装 python3 and pip3
RUN apt-get update -y && \
    apt-get install -y python3.7 python3-pip python3.7-dev && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

# 安装 Python Flink
RUN pip3 install apache-flink
COPY /path/of/python/codes /opt/python_codes

# 如果有引用第三方 Python 依赖库, 可以在构建镜像时安装上这些依赖
COPY /path/to/requirements.txt /opt/requirements.txt
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt

# 如果有引用第三方 Java 依赖, 也可以在构建镜像时加入到 ${FLINK_HOME}/usrlib 目录下
RUN mkdir -p $FLINK_HOME/usrlib
COPY /path/of/external/jar/dependencies $FLINK_HOME/usrlib/
{% endhighlight %}

假设构建的应用镜像名是 **my-pyflink-app:latest**, 通过下面的命令行运行 PyFlink 应用:
{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run-application -p 8 -t kubernetes-application \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=my-pyflink-app:latest \
  -pym <ENTRY_MODULE_NAME> (or -py /opt/python_codes/<ENTRY_FILE_NAME>) -pyfs /opt/python_codes
{% endhighlight %}
可以使用 `-py/--python` 参数指定 PyFlink 应用的入口脚本文件, 或者使用 `-pym/--pyModule` 参数指定入口模块名, 使用 `-pyfs/--pyFiles` 参数指定所有 Python 文件路径, 以及其他在 flink run 中能配置的 PyFlink 作业参数。

注意:Application 模式只支持 "local" 作为 schema。默认 jar 位于镜像中,而不是 Flink 客户端中。

注意:镜像的 "$FLINK_HOME/usrlib" 目录下的所有 jar 将会被加到用户 classpath 中。

### 停止 Flink Application

当 Application 停止时,所有 Flink 集群资源都会自动销毁。
与往常一样,作业可能会在手动取消或执行完的情况下停止。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink cancel -t kubernetes-application -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterID> <JobID>
{% endhighlight %}

## 日志文件

默认情况下,JobManager 和 TaskManager 会把日志同时输出到console和每个 pod 中的 `/opt/flink/log` 下。
STDOUT 和 STDERR 只会输出到console。你可以使用 `kubectl logs <PodName>` 来访问它们。

如果 pod 正在运行,还可以使用 `kubectl exec -it <PodName> bash` 进入 pod 并查看日志或调试进程。

## 启用插件

为了使用[插件]({% link deployment/filesystems/plugins.zh.md %}),必须要将相应的Jar包拷贝到JobManager和TaskManager Pod里的对应目录。
使用内置的插件就不需要再挂载额外的存储卷或者构建自定义镜像。
例如,可以使用如下命令通过设置环境变量来给你的Flink应用启用S3插件。

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run-application -p 8 -t kubernetes-application \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName> \
  -Dcontainerized.master.env.ENABLE_BUILT_IN_PLUGINS=flink-s3-fs-hadoop-{{site.version}}.jar \
  -Dcontainerized.taskmanager.env.ENABLE_BUILT_IN_PLUGINS=flink-s3-fs-hadoop-{{site.version}}.jar \
  local:///opt/flink/usrlib/my-flink-job.jar
{% endhighlight %}

## Using Secrets

[Kubernetes Secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/) is an object that contains a small amount of sensitive data such as a password, a token, or a key.
Such information might otherwise be put in a Pod specification or in an image. Flink on Kubernetes can use Secrets in two ways:

- Using Secrets as files from a pod;

- Using Secrets as environment variables;

### Using Secrets as files from a pod

Here is an example of a Pod that mounts a Secret in a volume:

{% highlight yaml %}
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: foo
spec:
  containers:
  - name: foo
    image: foo
    volumeMounts:
    - name: foo
      mountPath: "/opt/foo"
  volumes:
  - name: foo
    secret:
      secretName: foo
{% endhighlight %}

By applying this yaml, each key in foo Secrets becomes the filename under `/opt/foo` path. Flink on Kubernetes can enable this feature by the following command:

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName> \
  -Dkubernetes.secrets=foo:/opt/foo
{% endhighlight %}

For more details see the [official Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/#using-secrets-as-files-from-a-pod).

### Using Secrets as environment variables

Here is an example of a Pod that uses secrets from environment variables:

{% highlight yaml %}
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: foo
spec:
  containers:
  - name: foo
    image: foo
    env:
      - name: FOO_ENV
        valueFrom:
          secretKeyRef:
            name: foo_secret
            key: foo_key
{% endhighlight %}

By applying this yaml, an environment variable named `FOO_ENV` is added into `foo` container, and `FOO_ENV` consumes the value of `foo_key` which is defined in Secrets `foo_secret`.
Flink on Kubernetes can enable this feature by the following command:

{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/kubernetes-session.sh \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName> \
  -Dkubernetes.env.secretKeyRef=env:FOO_ENV,secret:foo_secret,key:foo_key
{% endhighlight %}

For more details see the [official Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/#using-secrets-as-environment-variables).

## High-Availability with Native Kubernetes

For high availability on Kubernetes, you can use the [existing high availability services]({% link deployment/ha/index.zh.md %}).

### How to configure Kubernetes HA Services

Using the following command to start a native Flink application cluster on Kubernetes with high availability configured.
{% highlight bash %}
$ ./bin/flink run-application -p 8 -t kubernetes-application \
  -Dkubernetes.cluster-id=<ClusterId> \
  -Dtaskmanager.memory.process.size=4096m \
  -Dkubernetes.taskmanager.cpu=2 \
  -Dtaskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots=4 \
  -Dkubernetes.container.image=<CustomImageName> \
  -Dhigh-availability=org.apache.flink.kubernetes.highavailability.KubernetesHaServicesFactory \
  -Dhigh-availability.storageDir=s3://flink/flink-ha \
  -Drestart-strategy=fixed-delay -Drestart-strategy.fixed-delay.attempts=10 \
  -Dcontainerized.master.env.ENABLE_BUILT_IN_PLUGINS=flink-s3-fs-hadoop-{{site.version}}.jar \
  -Dcontainerized.taskmanager.env.ENABLE_BUILT_IN_PLUGINS=flink-s3-fs-hadoop-{{site.version}}.jar \
  local:///opt/flink/examples/streaming/StateMachineExample.jar
{% endhighlight %}

## Kubernetes 概念

### 命名空间

[Kubernetes 中的命名空间](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/namespaces/)是一种在多个用户之间划分集群资源的方法(通过资源配额)。
它类似于 Yarn 集群中的队列概念。Flink on Kubernetes 可以使用命名空间来启动 Flink 集群。
启动 Flink 集群时,可以使用 `-Dkubernetes.namespace=default` 参数来指定命名空间。

[资源配额](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/policy/resource-quotas/)提供了限制每个命名空间的合计资源消耗的约束。
它可以按类型限制可在命名空间中创建的对象数量,以及该项目中的资源可能消耗的计算资源总量。

### 基于角色的访问控制

基于角色的访问控制([RBAC](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/))是一种在企业内部基于单个用户的角色来调节对计算或网络资源的访问的方法。
用户可以配置 RBAC 角色和服务账户,JobManager 使用这些角色和服务帐户访问 Kubernetes 集群中的 Kubernetes API server。

每个命名空间有默认的服务账户,但是`默认`服务账户可能没有权限在 Kubernetes 集群中创建或删除 pod。
用户可能需要更新`默认`服务账户的权限或指定另一个绑定了正确角色的服务账户。

{% highlight bash %}
$ kubectl create clusterrolebinding flink-role-binding-default --clusterrole=edit --serviceaccount=default:default
{% endhighlight %}

如果你不想使用`默认`服务账户,使用以下命令创建一个新的 `flink` 服务账户并设置角色绑定。
然后使用配置项 `-Dkubernetes.jobmanager.service-account=flink` 来使 JobManager pod 使用 `flink` 服务账户去创建和删除 TaskManager pod。

{% highlight bash %}
$ kubectl create serviceaccount flink
$ kubectl create clusterrolebinding flink-role-binding-flink --clusterrole=edit --serviceaccount=default:flink
{% endhighlight %}

有关更多信息,请参考 Kubernetes 官方文档 [RBAC 授权](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/)。

## 背景/内部构造

本节简要解释了 Flink 和 Kubernetes 如何交互。

创建 Flink Kubernetes session 集群时,Flink 客户端首先将连接到 Kubernetes ApiServer 提交集群描述信息,包括 ConfigMap 描述信息、Job Manager Service 描述信息、Job Manager Deployment 描述信息和 Owner Reference。
Kubernetes 将创建 JobManager 的 deployment,在此期间 Kubelet 将拉取镜像,准备并挂载卷,然后执行 start 命令。
JobManager pod 启动后,Dispatcher 和 KubernetesResourceManager 服务会相继启动,然后集群准备完成,并等待提交作业。

当用户通过 Flink 客户端提交作业时,将通过客户端生成 jobGraph 并将其与用户 jar 一起上传到 Dispatcher。
然后 Dispatcher 会为每个 job 启动一个单独的 JobMaster。

JobManager 向 KubernetesResourceManager 请求被称为 slots 的资源。
如果没有可用的 slots,KubernetesResourceManager 将拉起 TaskManager pod 并且把它们注册到集群中。

EPIC Joins Global Day of Climate Change
For more information, please contact: Natalynne Delapp, EPIC, 707-822-7711
On October 24th at 2 p.m., people from around Southern Humboldt will gather in Richardson Grove as part of the largest day of climate change activism ever. Participants will join more than 3,000 communities in over 158 countries as part of a global day of action coordinated by 350.org to urge leaders to take immediate steps to address climate change and reduce carbon emissions.
Around the world–from capitol cities to the melting slopes of Mount Everest, even underwater on dying coral reefs–people will hold rallies aimed at focusing attention on the number 350 because scientists have insisted in recent years that 350 parts per million is the most carbon dioxide we can safely have in the atmosphere. The current CO2 concentration is 390 parts per million.
"That's why glaciers and sea ice are melting, drought is spreading, and flooding is on the increase," said Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org. "And it's why we need a huge worldwide movement to give us the momentum to make real political change. Our leaders have heard from major corporations and big polluters for a long time–today, finally, they heard from citizens and scientists."
The local action will take place at Richardson Grove State Park, once a protected stand of ancient Redwood trees, is now threatened by a highway widening project. Proponents of the project claim that increased truck access through the Redwood region justifies the degradation of this old growth grove.
Southern Humboldt 350.org organizers chose this location that contain trees over 1500 years old, to symbolize the threat our planet faces from reckless planning, and a disregard for the ecosystems we depend on.
The local organizing effort in Southern Humboldt includes the enthusiastic leadership of Aliana Knapp-Prasek, a Student Conservation Association activist and Redway resident. According to the climate activist, bold decisions and actions made today can have a positive impact on climate change tomorrow.
"The planned widening of Highway 101 through Richardson Grove, to me, embodies a giant step in the wrong direction, as far as climate change, as well as for the people in our community who hold precious our way of life. If we are to have any hope of slowing down the effects that will devastate life on Planet Earth, we need to make some huge changes quick. The tipping point is now. We need our precious trees to sequester carbon. We need to localize and lesson the big trucks delivering mass amounts of consumer goods up and down the highways. We need to live a little simpler now to ensure our children and grandchildren have a healthy planet to live on." said Talia Rose, owner of Organic Grace.
While a lot of attention has focused on the campaign to Save Richardson Grove State Park, large-scale clear-cutting continues behind the Redwood Curtain. One organization, the Environmental Protection Information Center, has spent 32 years addressing this issue locally.
"We depend on these forests to survive," said Natalynne Delapp, Policy Advocate for the EPIC, "outdated logging practices like clear-cutting continue to dominate the landscape of the Redwood region. We need the forests of our unique bioregion to function at their highest potential for all of the people on the planet, not just the few companies profiting off their destruction."
The 350.org action connecting communities across the globe can shine a light on these destructive practices, while offering practical solutions for the restoration of the planet.
"The earth can heal the wounds of industrialized society, including climate change, if we give them a chance," said Knapp-Prasek. "Decentralized organizing efforts like these can help the community come together to address the global issues, locally."
"While we may face inconvenience in the short term, we must make sacrifices for future generations to simply live," said Knapp-Prasek.
These global actions come six weeks before the world's nations convene in Copenhagen for the United Nations Climate Change Conference to draw up a new climate treaty. Eighty-nine countries have already endorsed the 350 target, as well as the chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the world's foremost climate economist, Sir Nicholas Stern, and Nobel prize-winner Al Gore.
Images of the actions from around the world, including the gathering in Southern Humboldt, will be featured on giant video screens in Times Square in New York as part of a 350 countdown, and are accessible at 350.org as part of a online photostream. Visual documentation From the Day of Action will be delivered to the United Nations on Monday, October 26th.
Carpooling is greatly encouraged. The owners of Organic Grace in Garberville offer their parking lot as a meeting place for carpools.

Marie-Joseph Lagrange (Bourg-en-Bresse, 7 de março de 1855 — Marselha, 10 de março de 1938) foi um teólogo francês.

Infância
Albert Lagrange, em religião Marie-Joseph Lagrange, nasceu num meio intelectual e burguês. O seu pai era um católico liberal, ou seja, defensor da democracia numa época em que a Igreja Católica Romana não se tinha ainda «convertido» à republica e à democracia.

Aos 10 anos, em 1865,foi estudar no Seminário Menor. Nesse internato, ele aprecia a arqueologia e a geologia, então  ciências emergentes; esta última é-lhe ainda estimulada e reforçada por um tio geólogo. O seu pai desejava que ele se tornasse notário. A sua mãe teria tido um sonho onde via o seu filho tornar-se padre. Aos 11 anos, o pequeno Alberto teve um primeiro apelo para o serviço divino.

Formação
Em 1872, quando faz o concurso à Escola militar de Saint-Cyr onde é admitido, tem um primeiro contacto com a Ordem Dominicana recentemente restaurada em França por Lacordaire, fundador da província de Toulouse. O seu pai insiste na direcção do direito, até à obtenção da licenciatura em 1878, aos 23 anos.

No que diz respeito ao catolicismo, os Lagrange sentiam-se mais próximos de Montalembert que de Veuillot, o jornalista agitador do ultramontismo e do anti-dreyfusismo. O catolicismo liberal era europeu, pelo menos francês-belga.

Em 1877, o jovem Lagrange em virtude de uma conversão pessoal, solicita a sua entrada na Ordem Dominicana, vocação que não foi contrariada pelo seu pai que pensava precisamente que a Igreja tinha mais necessidade de um jurista nos tempos que corriam do que de um padre, no que não deixava de ter uma certa razão.

Passou um ano em Issy-les-Moulineaux junto dos padres do Santo Sepulcro onde se apaixona por Tomás de Aquino. Naquela época, o tomismo está em plena renovação e Lagrange apoiará a criação da Revue Thomiste do seu amigo Sertillanges (em 1891) para limpar o tomismo das mãos do integralismo. Passou um ano em  Salamanca onde aprendeu hebreu e posteriormente três anos num convento austríaco e na Universidade de Viena onde estudou as bases da filologia, árabe, egípcio e hiérogligrafia. O meio intelectual vienense transformou-o num verdadeiro aprendiz do hebreu, de outras línguas orientais e clássicas, exegese, alemão, exegese rabínica e Mishna. Obteve também a amizade do superior do convento, Fr. Andreas Früwirth, que será duradoura e preciosa quando este se tornar mais tarde Mestre Geral da Ordem.

15 Incredibly Awkward Rap Brags
By Joey Held | May 29, 2015 | 2:18pm
The idea of braggadocio in rap is hardly a new concept. For as long as there's been one person saying something, there's been another one responding with, "I can do that too, but just a little bit better than you."
Unfortunately (or fortunately, if you like the occasional lyrical train wreck), rappers sometimes make head-scratching word choices. We've picked 15 of the finest examples of awkward rap brags. Feel free to use them if you're ever in a word battle of your own—you'll probably confuse your opponent for long enough to score a victory.
The Song: Rihanna's "Diamonds" Remix
The Line: "On the radio, man I miss myself/I need to just step back and kiss myself."
The Verdict: This is reminiscent of a teenager about to go on his first date, and is practicing by kissing a pillow. Can't you just picture Yeezus with his arms wrapped around his back and shoulders, making kissing noises? Actually, that's too clear a picture, and something that's probably happened. Let's move on.
2. Tyga
The Song: "Ayo"
The Line: "Looking in the mirror like I wish I can be me."
The Verdict: Not sure if this is a reference to some underlying lack of self-confidence Tyga has, or if he's saying he'd rather be himself than Chris Brown, the other artist featured on this song. If it's the latter, he's hardly alone in that sentiment.
3. Warren G
The Song: "I Want It All"
The Line: "I want it all, brand new socks and drawers."
The Verdict: Since regulating back in the mid-'90s, Warren G has apparently found enjoyment in the finer things in life. Namely, crisp new socks and underwear. This is just kind of a sad brag, though.
4. Mase
The Song: "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down"
The Line: "Young, black and famous, with money hanging out the anus."
The Verdict: This just sounds uncomfortable. Think about it for a second—but not any longer than that, because it's kind of gross. Bonus points for unintentionally reminding us of this scene about a "buttload of money" from the movie 2gether.
5. KRS-One
The Song: "You Don't Really Want It"
The Line: "I spit tighter, I'm not like all the rest/I'm not a playa but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express."
The Verdict: Remember those commercials back in the day, where someone would do something completely miraculous, like deliver a baby or make a perfectly-grilled cheese sandwich, and everyone standing around them would be in awe? Then the person who did said miracle would be like "Oh, I'm not a doctor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night." KRS-One isn't really a playa, but he did have a good night sleep.
6. Rich Homie Quan
The Song: "Lifestyle"
The Line: "Hey, I'm on the top just like toupee/Hey, I'm in her mouth just like toothpaste."
The Verdict: Rinsing and spitting was never a more appropriate response to anything. Let's just hope it's a good toupee.
7. Eminem
The Song: Rhianna's "Numb"
The Line: "I'm the butt police/And I'm looking at your rear, rear, rear."
The Verdict: Well, at least Em appears to be doing his job here. What else do you think is included in the work description for a butt police officer? Kicking it? Patting it? Just observing from a distance? So many questions that we'll probably never have the answers to, as there has been no BPD (Butt Police Division) opened anywhere in the world.


Whether it's your daily commute or an extended road trip, by the end of the average week many of us have accumulated a lot of time behind the wheel of our vehicle. A good ergonomic setup helps make your drive more comfortable and improves your driving.
Once you've adjusted your seat, remember to sit in it properly. Wear the Posture Medic on longer drives or commutes to support your back.
Your car seat is the most important part of your drive. It's where you will sit for that long commute to and from work every day of the week. It should be comfortable. And it should NOT HURT you.
Car companies have done a lot to help make seats more comfortable and adjustable for you, but you need to adjust it to suit your body and your needs. Please refer to your car manual for further guidelines.
Slide the seat so that you can operate the pedals with just your feet. Make sure you can easily lift your feet completely off of the pedals. Sit so that your legs are not squished and your thighs are relaxed and supported.
Your knees should be slightly bent. Locking your knees reduces circulation and can make you dizzy or even pass out.
Make sure you can easily move your legs and pelvis so you can easily shift position during your commute. This will relieve pressure points and keep blood circulating during long drives. Staying in a cramped position for too long may lead to Deep Vein Thrombosis.
This is one area that is often overlooked when adjusting the driver's seat. Your seat tilt ensures that your back is supported and that you don't hold your neck too far forward or backward as you drive.
Tilt the seat so that it supports your bottom and your thighs evenly. You don't want pressure points at the end of the seat. Make sure your thighs extend passed the seat so that the back of your knees do not touch the seat if that's possible.
Your legs and pelvis should have ample ability to move and shift position without detracting from your driving. This will relieve pressure points and keep blood circulating during long drives.
Setting the proper angle for your driver's seat can be a little bit tricky. Most of us arbitrarily adjust the seat angle the first time we sit in the car and then forget about it. You want to make sure that you're not too laid back or uptight in your chair.
Recline the seat between 100-110 degrees - look at the picture for reference. Your shoulders should no longer be in line with your hips but solidly behind them. This supports your upper body while maintaining an upright and attentive posture.
Remember to sit correctly in your seat. If you have a tendency to lean forward from the waist or hunch your shoulders forward in your seat, wear a Posture Medic while driving to help you maintain the correct alignment of your upper body.
Adjusting the height of the driver's seat can dramatically improve your driving ergonomics and comfort.
Raise the seat so that you have a good view out the windshield, but not so high that your legs will interfere with the steering wheel. You may need to re-adjust your leg room accordingly.
The lumbar support can be a saving grace during long drives, or if you already suffer from back pain. If your car seat does not have an integrated lumbar support you should get an after market one and add it to your seat.
Adjust the lumbar support so that the curve of your spine is evenly supported. Make sure not to over-extend your back. Pushing your back too hard in the opposite direction can cause different injuries. You want your lumbar support to provide a nice, gentle, and even support.
Some vehicles allow you to tilt the steering wheel and even to pull it closer to your body with a telescoping steering column. Use all the options available to you to adjust the reach of your steering wheel. You want your shoulders to be back and relaxed. The tilt can be adjusted so that your wrists remain straight. The proper position to minimize arm fatigue and maximize driving control is to hold the wheel at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions.
Posture Medic is specifically designed to help you overcome your poor postural habits and retrain your body to stand up straight with our easy Stretch - Strengthen - Stabilise program.

Guns and the law: is microstamping a good idea?
A technology by which microscopic markings are imprinted on the ejected cartridges will help to solve crimes and fight crime? Not really. Here's why.
A contribution from The Team of all4shooters.com 09/09/2017
Shooting test: a case being ejected.
Like bad news, bad ideas always spread fast and far. And the State of California is an interesting case study when it comes to bad ideas about firearms legislation. One of the most curious examples is "microstamping". This is a technology by which microscopic markings, engraved onto the tip of the firing pin with a laser, are transferred to the primer by the firing pin and to the cartridge case when the gun is fired.
Microstamping on a primer.
The microscopic markings imprinted on the ejected cartridges can then be examined to trace the firearm to the last registered owner.
California requires that all semiautomatic handguns sold in the state not already on the California approved handgun roster incorporate microstamping technology and no new gun can be certified for sale unless it incorporates a "microstamping" process.
This law, passed in 2007, generated controversy and at present is still on hold, with the ongoing litigation in the hands of the California Supreme Court.
The bad news, after the bad idea, is that Democrats have recently introduced a new bill to the US House of Representative that would make the microstamping mandatory and would strip the ability of all federal firearms licensees to sell pistols that do not carry the microstamping technology.The bill's author, U.S. Rep. Anthony Brown, D-Md., stated that "Microstamping offers law enforcement the chance to track bullet casings to the source of the crime, and is one more step we can take to ensure the safety of the American people."
An "unreliable and easy to defeat" technology
Modern handgun ammunition: GECO 9 mm Luger Hollow Point.
So, what's wrong with microstamping? First of all, the technology itself: many argue the current state of the technology does not allow for imprinting on the hard surface of the cartridge casehead or to imprint consistently and legible identification information on a casing primer from the tip of a firing pin. The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) claims that "it is not ready for use as a crime solving tool" and that it's "unreliable, easily defeated and simply impossible to implement." Incidentally, it must also be noted that microstamping is a proprietary patented technology presently owned by a company called NanoMark, the only company from which this technology can be purchased.
Besides that, firing a large number of rounds will wear down the microstamp even after a few shots, quickly making it illegible: "Placing a microscopic mark on a firing pin is like placing a car's vehicle identification number on the tire tread. It just doesn't stand up," to use NSSF words.
Just use a bat. Or a revolver.
On their part, the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute (SAAMI) pointed out that criminals could simply collect microstamped cases from a firing range and leave them at the scenes of their crimes, thereby providing false evidence against innocent people and messing up or misleading the investigation.
A Colt Cobra revolver in .38 Special. Microstamping can't be applied to revolvers, since they don't eject empty cases.
Moreover, microstamping can't be applied to revolvers, since they don't eject empty cases. Lastly, criminals often use stolen guns, so finding the original owner is perfectly useless.
On the web, you can already find a series of simple options for criminals to defeat microstamping. Some are jokes, others are not.
File off the firing pin markings (the depth of the laser engraving is approximately 0.005 inch, which is vastly smaller than the tolerance of the firing pins drive depth.)
Use an alternate firing pin (they are cheap and readily available.)
Use one of the millions of non-microstamping pistols already in circulation.
Put small patches of duct tape on cartridge primers before shooting.
Use a home-made brass catcher to collect spent cases.
Use a revolver.
Use a bat. (Yes, this is the joke. Almost.)
What is clear is that microstamping isn't cheap: the NSSF estimates the cost will be upwards of 150 US dollars per firearm.
All in all, it seems that the only goal that can be achieved with microstamping is making more costly for law-abiding citizens to get a gun. Outlaws won't even pay attention to it.

How do you teach students to successfully peer-edit and self-edit their essays? Do effective strategies even exist to teach students to make meaningful edits? Finally, there is a fun and engaging peer-editing protocol that really works. All content teachers are now expected to teach ELA, reading and writing skills. This fun editing activity is the perfect way to do just that. Teach students to successfully edit their writing assignments – and to enjoy the process. Perfect for 5th – 12th grade writing centers, this peer-editing activity encourages three "partners" to act as the "lawyer," "surgeon" and "counselor" to offer comprehensive peer feedback on in-class essays.

Review: The Ghost Tree by Christina Henry
October 31, 2020 jenni2 Comments
Oh my stars, this was the perfect October read for me. Gruesome murders in the woods? Ghosts? Witches? Creepy small town with some serious secrets? Yes, thank you!
When the bodies of two girls are found torn apart in the town of Smiths Hollow, Lauren is surprised, but she also expects that the police won't find the killer. After all, the year before her father's body was found with his heart missing, and since then everyone has moved on. Even her best friend, Miranda, has become more interested in boys than in spending time at the old ghost tree, the way they used to when they were kids.
So when Lauren has a vision of a monster dragging the remains of the girls through the woods, she knows she can't just do nothing. Not like the rest of her town. But as she draws closer to answers, she realizes that the foundation of her seemingly normal town might be rotten at the center. And that if nobody else stands for the missing, she will.
Doesn't that sound fantastically October-ish?
Last year, I read and enjoyed my first book by Christina Henry: Lost Boy was a delightfully dark take on the (already dark) Peter Pan story. Pretty confident at this point that she's just the kind of author I like. The Ghost Tree is well-written and completely engaging—once I started I didn't want to stop.
The book is set in the early 1980s in a sleepy little town where all is definitely not what it seems. Fifteen-year-old Lauren's father was brutally murdered recently in the woods, and she's experiencing all sorts of weirdness herself while also navigating the confusion that is growing from girl to young woman. When her headache leads to a vivid vision of a monster savagely killing two girls in the woods, Lauren is upset enough… but then the bodies of the girls are found and Lauren has to figure out quickly what's going on.
I don't want to give too much away, but suffice it to say, I enjoyed the plot and characters very much. The story is told from multiple POVs, and as much as I adored Lauren, I also loved Alejandro's chapters. The town's lore is laid out in a wonderfully witchy fairy tale-like story. Fun 80s references throughout, gory horror, a curse, witches and monsters, and I honestly didn't figure out who the killer was until the end. There's a lot to love here for horror fans.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my free copy in exchange for this honest review.

Review: House of Secrets by Darcy Coates
October 27, 2020 October 27, 2020 jenniLeave a comment
I'm still enjoying my October of #screamathon reads—this one a NetGalley copy of the sequel to Coates' House of Shadows that has been waiting for me far too long.
From the (perhaps too descriptive) Goodreads blurb:
Sophie and Joseph's escape from Northwood is short-lived. The beast survived, and attached itself to Joseph's young cousin, Elise. Garrett writes to beg for their help. Joseph and Sophie travel to meet him at Kensington, a long-abandoned mansion that overlooks a dead town. The house offers a small hope: its original owner had dedicated her life to researching the monster that possesses Elise. Garrett hopes to find a way to kill the creature without harming his daughter. But Kensington is a dangerous building. Once the carriage leaves, they're trapped inside the collapsing walls and forced to confront the horrors within.
Shrouded figures stalk them. Whispers echo through the night. Unmarked graves dot the property. And the dead are not as restful as they seem…
If you're going to read this, you should probably read House of Shadows first. House of Secrets quite literally picks up exactly where book one ended, and the plot and characters aren't going to make a lot of sense if you haven't read the first story. If I'm honest, the first book is the stronger of the two, as well.
I had not read anything by Coates prior to this duology. While I think the author does a great job setting establishing the gothic, atmospheric settings in these books, the plot for this one was fairly predictable and I really wish the characters were more fleshed-out.
Our heroine Sophie, who ended the first book having confidently overcome her quiet insecurities and shown herself to be a badass, is once again wracked with fears that her brooding (and rather one-dimensional) husband Joseph doesn't really love her and is keeping secrets. Joseph's inconsistency and secretive behavior is annoying, but Sophie's reactions are disappointing after we saw her growth near the end of book one.
Since creepy, gothic Northwood house is no more, our characters must make do with an even creepier, more run-down, literally collapsing gothic mansion in Kensington house. This is the part that Coates does so well—setting the scene in a remote, dismal, perfectly haunted house. I love the descriptions of the house, the grounds, the abandoned ghost town nearby… it reminds me of the fun ghost stories I read when I was young and impressionable.
Speaking of ghosts, I really enjoyed the mysterious haunting happening at Kensington—way more than I liked the reappearance of the lame Grimlock. The main characters conducting their research in the dead of the night in the crumbling house, the veiled lady, the old painting coming alive… this is the kind of stuff I'm here for.
Overall, this was a quick, seasonally-appropriate read, not without its flaws, but also not without fun. Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for my copy in exchange for this honest review.

I'm OK, you're OK
Hollywood has made several versions of the Wyatt Earp story, although to be honest I haven't seen most of them. The one I have, My Darling Clementine, is airing tonight at 8:00 PM ET as TCM's Essential.
Henry Fonda plays Wyatt Earp, the leader of the Earp familiy which has a feud with the more lawless Clanton family, headed by patriarch Walter Brennan, although it's really the sons here who are itching for a fight, led by John Ireland. The Earps are driving cattle and wind up in Tombstone, Arizona, which is where they leave the cattle in the care of the youngest brother, who promptly gets murdered. This causes Wyatt to become deputized as a marshall and go after his brother's killers, and, well, you probably know the rest from one of the other movies.
The story here is probably as worthy as any of the other OK Corral retellings; as I wrote above I haven't seen the others yet so I can't make a comparative judgement. This one, however, was able to bring together a very fine cast. In addition to Fonda and Brennan, there's Victor Mature as Doc Holliday, the consumptive dentist who knows he's going to die anyhow so joins with Earp more or less just because. Wyatt's brothers are played by Tim Holt and Ward Bond, while John Ireland and Grant Withers play the Clanton kids. And then there are the women; the proper Clementine (Cathy Downs) and the much more exotic (but more like a femme fatale) Apache "Chihuahua", played by Linda Darnell.
My Darling Clementine was directed by John Ford, who had actually worked with the real Wyatt Earp back in the 1920s. Earp wound up spending the last several years of his life (he died in 1929) in Hollywood as an advisor to movie studios on the "old West", which is how he met Ford and John Wayne, among others. Perhaps that gives this version an air of authenticity in places that other versions wouldn't have, but as always, this is Hollywood, so there are other considerations that come before accuracy.
My Darling Clementine is of course on DVD.

2008 San Francisco International Auto Show November 22, 2007
In 1958, unable to participate in the local domestic auto show, forward looking Bay Area import auto dealers decided to create their own exposition. Given the novelty and interest in foreign made cars at the time, the auto dealer's idea proved to be a good one. For nearly two decades the Import Car Show, the precursor to what is now the San Francisco International Auto Show, flourished and expanded.
As attitudes and the auto industry changed, owing to greater global cooperation in automotive production and the increased competitiveness in the world's car markets, it was only natural that the Import Car Show broaden its scope to include the products of both the domestic and international manufacturers worldwide. Thus the ever-expanding import show became truly international in 1982 when it moved into its new home at the Moscone Convention Center.
From the first year in its new home the show was a tremendous success and had already outgrown the space. Given the sudden increase in the varieties of makes and models available the show was literally bursting at the seams.
In 1992, another hall was added to the Moscone Center providing a total of 1.2 million sq. ft. and giving exhibitors the opportunity to construct more elaborate displays to showcase their vehicles. It also gave spectators a more spacious and inviting environment in which to view them.
Now in its 50th year, the San Francisco International Auto Show continues to grow. With more than 800 vehicles from over 40 manufacturers, the 2008 edition of the International Auto Show will feature exhibits in Moscone Center's north and south halls and Gateway Ballroom plus the north and south lobby areas. The San Francisco International Auto Show is the premier auto show in the Bay Area and the only auto show held locally that lures the high-tech and dazzling displays from the world's major manufacturers. It is the second largest auto show in the western states and the number one exhibition of any kind in northern California.
The 2008 San Francisco International Auto Show, set for November 22 to December 2, 2007 at the Moscone Convention Center, promises to be the most spectacular in the 50-year history of the event. Presented by the San Francisco Chronicle|SFGate.com and supported by the California Motor Car Dealers Association, the International Auto Show is expected to top last year's record attendance.
In addition to the 2008 models the San Francisco International Auto Show will feature classic cars, racecars and provide a glimpse into the future with prototypes, concept cars and alternative fuel vehicles. The Show will also have an extensive auto accessory area with after market products, interactive exhibits and much more.
The 2008 San Francisco International Auto Show will run for the eleven days and is open on Thanksgiving. Show hours are 10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. Thursday, November 22 through Saturday, December 1 and 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 2. Admission is $8 for adults, with children 12 years and under free when accompanied by an adult. Tickets can be purchased at the door. For more information visit our website at www.sfautoshow.com.

This auto show is ok but seriously lacks the punch of the LA, NY,Detroit autoshows, which is a shame because the Bay Area buys alot of cars yet we get a plain jane INTERNATIONAL auto show. If it was truly international we'd see more futuristic cars and more of the cars people really want. Unfortunately over the past 10yrs we see less and less of those. Most of the cars there one can see by going to the car dealer. What people really want to see are the Ford GT, Viper GTS, Corvette ZO6 and Callaways,BMW M5 Sedan and M5 Wagon(sold in Europe but not in the USA, another head scratcher) and the M6 and M6 Spyder(yes even BMW skimps on us now), th Mercedes E55 and E55 Wagon(yep even Mercedes skimps on us now too), Ferrari has some cars they show off and Audi-owned Lambos but nothing for the future from them other than pics we see in magazines. No Saleen S7's or S281's, no Camaro SS(yes its coming), no Pontiac G8 I will assume this year. Almost every manufacturer has cut back on the SF Interational Auto Show so I say lets boycott it til we get what LA and NY gets. More of the cars people come to see not what we can see on any car lot in the bay area.
My husband and I went to the car show on the opening day (Thursday). I am not really into the cars but he is. It was not really what I had expected...there were a few beauties but the rest were standard issue. One thing that really made me mad was the hustlers in the lobby. There is a row of computers and a bunch of guys selling what looks like the chronicle they hand you a scan card to scan to log in ( they take the scan card back) and the guys tell you there are door prizes and 125 things you can win...its a scam to get you to log on and get personal info like your name, email, address, telephone etc. It is all BS there is no door prize no nothing. Don't get caught they really hustle you when you walk into that lobby you have to pass them to get to the cars. Just keep walking better yet ask about the prizes ...there are none.
