Largest and western-most of the Puebloan reservations, the Hopi Nation is an island of land in northeastern Arizona surrounded by the sprawling Navajo Nation and centered on the three mesas that comprise the traditional home of the Hopi people. The modern Hopi are most likely descended from the ancient Sinagua people, who made this area their home well into pre-historic times, and ancestral Puebloan populations who migrated there during the decline of their classical period. While the dynamics of this cultural confluence are not entirely clear, both of these ancient cultures shaped what is unquestionably one of the most iconic pottery traditions in the southwest.
The Hopi mesas produced fine pottery during the Sinagua period that only developed further after the arrival of ancestral Puebloan migrants, see the representative pieces in this previous article. However, as it was for most of the pueblos, centuries of cultural suppression following the arrival of the Spanish were not kind to traditional artisans. Since the mesas are particularly isolated from other pueblos, and surrounded by a variety of threats both new and old (the Spanish, Navajo and Apache), the Hopi were largely unable to continue trading as before and thus pottery production went into a steep decline, almost disappearing by the end of the 18th century.
Intriguingly, the resurrection of pottery as a major art form in the modern Hopi Nation came not from the ancient village of Old Oraibi on Third Mesa, but from the village of Hano on First Mesa. The vast majority of the Hopi Nation speaks the traditional Hopi language, a Uto-Aztecan tongue closely related to that spoken by the Todo O'odham and other groups further to the south and west (likely a result of their Sinagua heritage), but Hano is a Tewa-speaking village. Founded by refugees from the Rio Grande Valley pueblos fleeing the Spanish reprisals for the revolt of 1680, Hano is integrated with Hopi society in many respects, though it retains the language of its progenitors.
Utilitarian pottery was, of course, still produced at Hano in the late 19th century, as elsewhere in the Hopi Nation, and the village of Polacca produced a polychrome style based on their cultural exchange with the Zuni, but the iconic Hopi style was born when a local trader suggested to Hano potters that they attempt to replicate pottery from the abandoned pre-contact pueblo of Sityatki nearby. The rest is not only history, but a vibrant tradition that is alive and well to this day.
There are many significant families in Pueblo pottery given the art form's traditional transmission from mother to daughter, but few surnames loom larger than the Nampeyos of Hano. Their matriarch, who would come to influence and define the quintessential Hopi style, was born as Num-pa-yu (1859-1942) and was likely one of the original Hano potters who began replicating the archaic designs from the Sityatki ruins. When the Smithsonian excavated Sityatki in 1896, Num-pa-yu's husband was one of the workmen at the site and she had ample occasion to study the more complete specimens that were unearthed. It was also her innovation to drop the white slip that was a holdout from the Polacca style and let the distinctive yellow-orange sunset patina of the local clay serve as a background as the ancients had done.
Num-pa-yu's descendants took her name as their surname, in a slightly altered form, and they maintained her legacy with gusto. Over the course of six generations, the family has produced at least eleven highly-accomplished potters who have all expanded upon and refined the classic Sityatki revival style in their own way. Today, the family's pottery continues to be some of the most sought-after by collectors.
As iconic as the Sityatki revival style is, Hopi pottery is not monolithic. In the 1930s a handful of potters began making red ware, reminiscent of the archaic styles associated with Ancestral Puebloans of the Kayenta region of north-central Arizona, and a few continue today. One of the earliest and most renowned of these was Myrtle Young. Though she lived in Hano all her life, her pottery bore little resemblance to the intricate polychrome designs on burnished yellow clay that her home was famous for. She favored a deep red slip and minimalist geometric designs in black, if any at all.
Our museum has an exquisite collection of Hopi pottery and all of it can be viewed on our online database (http://pgmuseum.pastperfectonline.com/). Though none of our Hopi pottery is currently on display, we hope to be able to exhibit it soon.

Q: LinkButton OnClick event does not fire in Bootstrap drop-down menu I am developing an ASP.Net application. I have implemented a Bootstrap Navbar. Everything is working as expected except when I try to implement an <asp:LinkButton> inside on of the dropdown-menu's.
Here's a snippet:

        <asp:LinkButton ID="btnLogout" runat="server" OnClick="btnLogout_Click">
            Log out
        </asp:LinkButton>

Basically this Log out LinkButton is a drop-down menu item. When I run the application and click it, all it does is toggle the drop-down menu to close again.
I've set a break point in the btnLogout_Click event but it never gets reached which indicates the event is never fired.
Is there anyway to make this LinkButton's OnClick event fire properly?
Note: It works if I double click (i.e. click it again before it fully closes). But this is not ideal for the UX.

A:

    <asp:LinkButton ID="btnLogout" runat="server" OnClick="btnLogout_Click">
        Log out
    </asp:LinkButton>

Hello everybody and welcome to the next installment of our Through the Pages series! We're in the final stretch before the movie comes out so we're going to start cranking these out faster. Once again, you'll only get one chapter today, but worry not, you'll see the next one within a week.
Katniss ponders on Gale's words, and how uncaring and cold they make her seem. She determines at that moment that the answer to Gale's query is that she can survive without either of them. In the morning, they watch as Beetee interrupts a broadcast, with the rebels and the Capitol struggling for control on the streets. The Capitol starts evacuating the citizens, and Tigris goes out to do some recon. Katniss doesn't think they should be waiting. When Tigris comes back, she tells them how many Capitol citizens have now become refugees in their own city, and shopkeepers are expected to take some people in.
Realizing that the rebels are closer than they first thought, Katniss determines she will leave in the morning. Gale insists on going with her. They agree to take Cressida and Pollux, but can't take Peeta along. He decides he'll go off on his own to divert people's attention off the others. Gale gives him his nightlock pill to take in case he gets captured; since he knows how to detonate his own arrows– plus he'll be with Katniss– he won't be needing it.
Before they leave, Tigris disguises them so that they can blend with the Capitol citizens. Katniss tells Peeta not to do anything rash, and gives him a hug that he returns, bringing back memories of previous embraces. They go out and blend into the crowd. Soon gunfire breaks out and everything turns to chaos. Katniss realizes the shooting is coming from the rebel side, but she and Gale decide not to join in and instead keep moving forward, trying to get to Snow. They steal some guns from Peacekeepers and keep going.
They encounter several pods, including a bright light that kills people and a street that opens up and swallows everyone standing on top of it. Katniss barely gets away, and has to help Gale out when he's left hanging from an iron grating in front of a closed apartment door. When he gets to safety, he's immediately grabbed by Peacekeepers; as he's taken away, Katniss realizes he was yelling for her to shoot him, but she didn't realize. She decides the only thing she can do to save him now is to bring down the Capitol.
She makes her way to the City Circle, and sees that there's a barricade around Snow's mansion, completely made up of children, like a human shield for Snow. The rebels break through to the Circle, and Katniss suddenly sees a Capitol-marked hovercraft drops silver parachutes down to the children. Thinking they're provisions, the children pick them up, but then some of the parachutes explode, killing or injuring most of the children. Before Katniss can react, a wave of rebel medics swarm in, trying to help. Katniss catches a glimpse of Prim in the crowd, and she tries to push through the crowd to get to her sister. Prim sees her, starts to call out, and then the rest of the parachutes explode.
Chapter 24. I'm deeply sighing as I type. This one's gonna hurt. Okay, then. Deep breaths everyone.
There is so much of 24 that I'm not certain will be included until the end of the chapter. There are only a few key moments I'm sure will be there, others I can guess are there by dissecting previous trailers and TV spots and other moments where only time will tell when I'm sat in the cinema. Rather than tuning in to Capitol reports and Beetee's reports sporadically over the course of the past couple chapters, maybe we'll get one exposition dump in one go. The rebels are alive, they are wanted, refugees are spilling the streets headed for Snow's mansion, shops are being cleared to allow refugees in, the rebels are also headed to the centre and the crowd have gone wild and attacked a Peeta lookalike. Thereby signalling a plan of leaving Tigris', where they've got to go, how they're going to get there and the prevalent danger that will be surrounding them. Maybe we might get a Beetee scene showing him intercepting info and propaganda. And maybe even scenes of Coin/Snow plans of attack and defense to bring the war to a swift close. Tigris will have her moment to shine when her stylist skills become essential for the few remaining members of 451.
One thing we can be certain of in modern war is the displaced innocent civilians. From the annals of history to right now from the war in Syria. The Hunger Games films have managed to stay allegorical for the 2010s and I hope they show some of the authentic fragments that Suzanne Collins writes about the Capitol refugees: the meagre supplies of food, the coveted and later abandoned material possessions, the despondency, the uncertain future. It's terribly apt for the times we live in now and would be a missed opportunity if we glimpsed none of it.
Nightlock. At some stage we need bloody nightlock introduced. It's a really beautiful (and incredibly bleak) gesture of Gale to hand over his nightlock pill to Peeta, risking his own chances of saving himself from the hands of the Capitol should he be captured. Detonating arrows or asking your best friend to kill you are hardly fail-safe solutions. It would be the perfect opportunity for James Newton Howard to give us a few musical cues from 'The Hanging Tree' to really send the message home. I imagine Katniss' final hug with Peeta will be at the same point. I always loved this moment from the first time I read the book. If it is the hug seen in the full trailer from July then I don't need to say how I hope it will be; from that brief glimpse, Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson have hit the nail on the head.
When Katniss and Gale head out to the mansion alone, this is when things start to get a little tricky. The action may not stick exactly to the book but I'm almost certain it will be action of the highest edge-of-seat quality albeit probably not as sci-fi or as explicitly gory as the novel. Example: we may see a girl in a lemon yellow coat, whether she'll be gunned down will be another matter. Boiling bodies, Katniss lying in a puddle of blood, the limbs of exploded children are tougher to see than they are to read. But Gary Ross set the standard ever since that run to the Cornucopia in the 74th Games. These films have dared to tread where other blockbusters haven't. If anyone can push that PG-13 rating, The Hunger Games can. We may not see the violence of the novel but it'll be alluded to. I hope we see Gale more prepared to react to these situations and do what is necessary; things that are in a moral murkiness for Katniss.
I like the ground of the street separating beneath them and the absolute terror of Katniss. But we have no proof it is included and have yet to see how Katniss and Gale become separated. I hope the 'shoot me' moment is there. Both as an example of how deadly and destructive this war is and to produce the despair Katniss feels about not being able to kill Gale, leaving him to a terrible fate.
As for the end of this chapter: I don't know how the refugees will play out around Snow's mansion, I don't know if there'll be a Rebel surge, I don't know if there'll be a ducktail poking out the back of a shirt. All I know is there'll be children, a hovercraft, exploding parachutes, a dedicated Rebel medic named Prim and Katniss to witness all of it. I'm deeply sighing as I type.
As chapter 23 ends with Gale saying, "Katniss will pick whoever she thinks she can't live without," chapter 24 opens with Katniss mulling over Gale's response as to whom she will "choose" between him and Peeta. Katniss is very offended that her closest friends are okay with insinuating she is "cold and calculated." Katniss makes most of her decisions based on love or survival, and sometimes both. So in my opinion, Gale hits the bullseye with his comment.
As the rebels push into the heart of the Capitol, the vulnerable Capitol citizens are forced into the streets like blood flowing out from a dying heart. Before the remnants of Squad 451 decide to disperse into that chaos, there are several small but good gestures of humanity I really hope make the film. Tigris proves to be an unlikely angel as she house, protects, and risks her own life to spy out a way for her guests to escape. When she stops to make the squad a sort of "last supper," I am really moved by her compassion.
The Capitol streets basically turn into a live action graveyard. I don't know how much violence they will get into in the movie, but when Katniss sees the little girl in the lemon yellow coat struck with a bullet as she kneels over her mother's lifeless body, that seemed to hurt worse than all of the detonating pods.
So now for Prim. I'm not sure what I can even say –that moment when Prim turns around and locks eyes with Katniss for one second before everything goes up in flames and Katniss loses everything she set out to protect –just silence. That's all I have now and all I will have then. Maybe some kind of moan or whimper will slip out. Or maybe I'm wrong and my darker side will scream some blasphemous slur against Suzanne Collins in a moment of emotional confusion. Either way, it's not going to be pretty, but that's why we're all in this together!
It's funny: the very last part of this chapter is so crucial, that I often forget that the beginning of it has a lot of little details I really like. The fact that Capitol people assaulted and killed someone simply because he looked slightly like Peeta is something that always shocked me to the bone. And since we've actually seen people be assaulted and even killed simply because of the way they look, their religion or sexual orientation, or even just out of gross generalizations regarding the culture they come from, I think those few paragraphs in the book are more relevant than ever. We see it every day in the news, and it says a lot about what fear and ignorance do to a person's state of mind. It's one of those lessons of war that this book is so great at, and oh, how I wish it were included in the movie. I don't think it will– I really don't think they'll have include that many broadcasts, it gets repetitive and they take too much time– but if it could only be mentioned (maybe by Tigris, after her recon outing?), I'd be the happiest fan ever.
Katniss's decision to go off with Gale and Peeta's decision to act as a diversion is something I think will be included, perhaps with a bit more input from Cressida. I also feel if they're going to include the nightlock pill at all, the moment where Gale gives Peeta his pill is going to be that moment; all you need is for Gale to say "here, swallow this in case you get captured" and everybody will get what he means. "We all have one," cue to Katniss touching the pocket where she has hers. That's all that's needed. And it's once again one of those moments where we see that Gale and Peeta agree on more stuff than just their love of Katniss– both of them would rather be dead than captured. After the conversation they had in the previous chapter, I'm looking forward to any interaction they can get on-screen.
The push through the Capitol I believe will be one big action sequence for Katniss and Gale. We've seen a lot of it in trailers and TV spots, and because of that I think it will actually take a big chunk of this act of the movie. I don't know that they'll adapt it right down to the detail; I don't believe I've seen the light pod or the street-opening pod. It'd be a shame for them to not include them, because they add to that sci-fi feel and they're relatively easy to set up, I think. But somehow I think they'll focus more on the human side of things– Peacekeepers shooting at them, grenades, explosions, that sort of stuff. It adds to the action.
Gale being captured will definitely be there, and I hope they make it dramatic as hell. Like, we'll see him desperately yelling, trying to tell Katniss to shoot him but we won't hear it, even though we all can read his lips and know what he's saying. And then Katniss will realize– maybe then we'll hear the words– but it's too late. The City Circle scene I'm sure will be almost verbatim, save perhaps for Katniss hoisting herself up on a flag pole. And it will kill every single one of us. That's pretty much all I can say about it.
(And of course, Katniss' "Prim!" which wasn't explicit in the book but we know from the TV spots that it's in the movie anyway. It wouldn't be a Hunger Games movie without at least one instance of Jennifer Lawrence's desperate "Prim!"… it's so perfect).

My wife finally uploaded a whole load of her photos of our trip to Amsterdam. In truth, she took almost all the photos that are in my Flickr folders of that trip as well as every other trip. Only exceptions are the shots in Saudi Arabia where she did not care to join me.
I exercise my perogative as Master and Husband to claim her better shots as my shots. Even better still, I could do my thing and play chess etc etc while she spend her time more gainfully in uploading the photos into my Flickr folder.
This was the first overnight trip we have had with Riamfada.
So it was on Thursday morning 13 Aug 2009 9:00am that my wife and I set off from our place in North Al Hail, Muscat with Riamfada on her swing perch over the back seat. I thought about taking some of her mash with us, but the logistic of keeping that cold even though we brought the Coleman box with us was too much. We took with us the cat carrier in case we needed to pop Riam inside.
Katleen was coming with us and we picked her 15 minutes later from agreed meeting point of Lulu Supermarket at Al Ghoubra. I learned from our last trip picking up our friends Paul and his wife using garbled directions as you might have read.
She sat with me in the front while my wife sat in the back with Riam and off we went.
We headed on into Ruwi and turned off to Al Amerat. Katleen was wowing at the views that we were passing through as this was her first time here. I knew that feeling as I passed here before. But unlike that first time, I also knew the beautiful sceneries will be surpassed. I bite my tongue not to tell her and to let the actual scenery unfold to tell her. Katleen had been here in Muscat almost as long as myself but she had not left Muscat the way my wife and I had done so with Riamfada.
Above are snapshots of Google Earth. You can see loads of photos taken by others. So if you have Google Earth, fire it up to those coordinates shown to see how beautiful the area we passed through as well as at the photos taken by others.
We started climbing up the Eastern Hajar Mountains. Just as we were about to descend to the town of Quriyat I pulled up at a stop point. I always stopped here before to take in the view and being a creature of habit, felt compelled to do so again. Even more so as Riamfada was with me here for the first time and it was good to allow her to fly in beautiful area.
Katleen was with us and she loved seeing Riam fly. With her taking the perch, my wife could better focus on taking photos.
We then were again on our way. I drove down the mountain to Quriyat and on to the new highway to Sur. Unlike the last time, this superhighway was completed but not officially opened as yet. It meant no people manning the toll boths and no radar traps in place and just an incredibly beautiful road to drive on for free.
I made a stop at Bima Sink hole. It was along the way and it would be a real shame not to stop even if just to have a look at it again. My first couple of times, I even went down to take a swim and to luxuriate in the waters below.
In the earlier trip made a year ago, we stopped several times more along the way. However, I knew now how nice the Turtle Beach Resort was unlike the first time and how inviting and laid back a place that I decided to get there as soon as possible.
We made a stop at Sur for lunch and to take a break from driving.
With the benefit of having been there before, I knew the way now and had not have to stop and ask for directions the way I did the first time.
It was a pleasure to be back again here. And with Riamfada this time.
Riamfada took all there by surprise but the friendly staff there warmly welcomed her as well.
We booked a double room while Katleen had a single. It was a nice surprise to find the huts made of woven palm fronds were all air conditioned this time unlike the last. We had our own bathrooms attached to our unit as well unlike the shared bathrooms the last time. If I had known they had aircond, I would have been here much earlier.
Visibility on other hand was not too good at maybe 1 to 1.5 meters This was just a refreshing dip for me before a quick shower on the beach and back to the restaurant to chill with Riam and my book while my wife had her swimm.
Then Riam had her exercise and chance to show off to others there, and to gain new fans. Should they want to have a parrot later on, they will remember us.
Then it was time for the buffet dinner. My wife had to get dinner for me while I sat with Riamfada at the table.
Sadly, Riam did not care for human food the way Tinkerbell did. She took some pieces of cucumber and her sunflower seeds that you see in that little jar. Then she went to my shoulder.
Dinner ended at 8pm . We were to drive off to Raz Al Jinz at 9pm . That was going to be a tightly organised affair by the Conservation Center and even though they limit the people, I knew from the past that a crowd would be there. After dinner, I walked to the beach with Riam on my shoulder in the darkness to see how she would be like. The wind was getting stronger too. Unlike the stop to see the space station a few months ago with just my wife and myself and the car nearby, we could be out for a couple of hours this time. Riam might not like that.
I decided that it would be better for Riam not to go with us.
In our room was this little cupboard. In the condition of the hut, the back of cupboard separated from the side when the wood warped. So an inch gap of free space. This imperfection became perfect for me. I had no worry that Riam would suffocate in that cupboard.
I took one of my ring perches from the car. Made of thick sisal rope stiffened by disposable chopsticks at top and bottom. Hung that in the cupboard and placed Riam onto it.
You can see that gap at back of cupboard and the disposable chopsticks in Riam's ring perch.
I went through my good night routine with Riam and closed that cupboard door for her to sleep in peace.
Then we drove on to Raz Al Jinz. To find a new routine in place. From the center, the 3 of us were taken by a mini bus to join the others already waiting on the edge of the beach. That saved a mile long walk that we all had to do last year.
The rangers there gave a talk on the conservation work on the turtles and that 40 km of coast line there were fully protected by them. We then waited for other rangers to locate turtles laying eggs to take us all to. No wanderings about on your own to minimise disturbances on turtles. No cameras allowed at all.
The sky was clear above. With the Milky Way clear and beautiful above just like a celestial river running across the sky. Here on the turtle nesting beach away from the normal light pollution that the stars were so beautiful. I had a green laser astronomy pointer that I carried with me.
Only two nights ago, I was out with my wife at Wadi Al Khoud hoping to spot the Perseids. I knew the best time from astronomical sites would be about 4am in the morning. Knowing I would not be able to wake up at 4am in morning, we went at 9 pm after dinner instead. I could not spot Cassiopeia and Perseus constellation and hence the Perseids. Their quandrant would only rotate into visibility at 4 am or so. I was there hoping to spot a chance shooting star.
I was hoping for better luck on that night on the turtle beach. My quiet whispered conversation with wife and Kat, or rather the occasional usage of that powerful and visible green laser beam attracted a gentleman in that 40++ group. I then talked of my failed attempt to see the Perseids and the frustration of not seeing Cassiopeia and Perseus constellation. He exclaimed he knew Cassiopeia was right above us and borrowed my laser to show us where he said it was right in center of the Milky Way. I was rather amazed and asked for Perseus. He then pointed to an area right at the end of the Milky Way and a quarter of the night sky away. We were all there to enjoy the ritual of seeing turtle laying eggs and having a good time. I did not wish and need not say anything contrary to him to spoil his good time. At that moment, a ranger signalled it was ok to approach the nesting turtle. Nesting turtle could be spooked off if approached too early. But once the turtle were into laying eggs after they dug their deep nesting holes in the sand, they can be approached if done appropriately. Not all of us were allowed to gathered around the rear of the turtle the last time a year ago. Small groups by small groups were allowed to see the turtle dropping the eggs by a torchlight hold by another ranger. All the rangers were locals of that area.
Then it came to the turn for the 3 of us. I knelt by the edge of the hole. To hear her sighs, and see periodically 3-4 glistering pingpong ball size eggs dropping from her to join the pile of eggs below.
Eventually she was done. She swung her flippers to create a flurry of sand backwards into the hole. Now and then, she gyrated on her rear flippers as if she was tamping the sand down. A few others sat near her either oblivious of the sand cascading on them, or deliberately there to enjoy the shower of sand.
We returned to our resort to sleep.
I woke up in the morning to the sound of Riamfada whistling from the cupboard. I opened that door and got her onto the hand perch. You will see in the folder Riamfada getting into her harness photo by photo. If you click on them to see the time of the shots, she was fastened into the harness rather quickly as she was eager to be out.
While waiting for breakfast to be ready, we sat out on this gazebo build over the edge of the sea near the jetty soaking it all in and watching sea birds fly about us.
Then it was breakfast time.
Riam enjoying the orange juice above. I tried again to turn my vegan Riamfada into a carnivore. In the flickr folder, you see her turning her nose against the egg omelette, she turned away from a choice piece of sausage, and a nice crunchy chicken bone.
I gave up and placed that chicken bone with chunks of meat next to her sunflower seeds and went on to enjoy my breakfast.
To be nudged by my wife to look at Riam. To my delight, Riam was holding the bone and biting off the meat on it. It was exquisite to see her crunching into the bone and taking the marrow and bone. After all these months of trying, I managed to turn Riam from a Birkenstock wearing and card carrying Vegan into a carnivore. On top of that, a kind of cannibal of cousin as well.
I sincerely believe that animal protein is vital for their well being. The calcium in that bone will also be very good for her.
Perhaps it was because I did not take her mash with me on this trip that she finally got to take that chicken bone.
On a footnote, this morning I mixed a teaspoon of raw pork mince into her mash and she ate it all.
We then took turns to snorkel. It was obvious my wife and I could not go together. It was then my turn.
In the Google Earth photo, the dark patch in the sea just off the beach was that coral reef.
The coldness of the water (22-23C) hit me with a shock again as I waded in. I quickly dived in to immersed myself to get that shock over with. There must have been an upwelling of cold water from the adjacent deep water canyon to make it so cold. Visibility was still about 1 meter or so. Details of the shallow bottom not very clear even if bottom was shallow at 1.2 meters. I swam even in shallower waters to avoid treading on corals and killing them.
Corals were very sadly significantly less than last year. And for all I know, nothing at all next year.
I snorkelled around and swam over to the area next to the jetty to see if my moray eels I saw in my trip a year ago were still there. Sadly they were not there and I hoped they grew and went on to deeper waters.
From time to time, I exhaled to dive closer to the corals below to see them better. The corals here were very different from those I saw when snorkelling in Dimaniyat the week before. I was delighted to see one of my favourite coral, the Goniopura family. This coral has spectacular polyps that extend its body to wave about like hair of Medusa. I saw a bit of beautiful blue from the surface and I dived down for closer look. To find a small colony of free living beautiful purple Goniopura, with end tentacles of sky blue waving away. Do yourself a favour and do a google image search for Goniopura as their beauty defied descriptions and I had no underwater camera.
And if you read this report and go there, please please please, no walking onto that coral patch,or any shallow coral reefs else where. They have a right to life too.
There were also clumps of anemones living in symbiotic harmony with their attending clown fishes. I only noticed them now because of their conspicuous absence in snorkelling waters of Dimaniyat.
If Riam was not with us, I could have stayed on for a long time in the waters there. So I was with Riam again.
After a few good flights, a public shower is a nice way to cool down.
All too soon, it was lunch.
I drove back shortly after that. A few stops were made to break journey and to fly Riamfada.
Then we were back home once again.
I sadly had to cull that from this already lengthy report. Or I will still be writing into this weekend.
And we have other plans for the weekend.

After 'nap-gate', Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte skips APEC summit dinner
Updated Nov 19, 2018 | 22:01 IST | AFP
The absence of the 73-year-old Duterte at diplomatic gatherings has sparked criticism and speculation of ill health, which his spokesman denied, saying the president merely lacked sleep.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte passed on a gala dinner at a regional summit in Papua New Guinea, days after skipping key meetings in another gathering of world leaders for a "power nap". Duterte, who has a well-known disdain for stiff diplomatic gatherings, was a no-show Saturday night, sending his trade minister instead to pose with heads of state donning bright yellow and red Papua New Guinean shirts.
His office had initially announced that the mercurial leader was cutting short his trip to Port Moresby even before the main meetings began but on Sunday he did show up at the convention centre. "This after I loudly and naggingly insisted he stay just one day. ONE DAY, I stressed," Philippine foreign minister Teodoro Locsin tweeted on Sunday.
The absence of the 73-year-old Duterte at diplomatic gatherings has sparked criticism and speculation of ill health, which his spokesman denied, saying the president merely lacked sleep. Duterte has said previously that he suffers from daily migraines and ailments including Buerger's disease, an illness that affects the veins and the arteries of the limbs, and is usually due to smoking.
On Wednesday, the Philippine leader missed four of the 11 meetings he was slated to attend and a gala dinner in Singapore, which hosted a meeting of Southeast Asian leaders. Observers have compared him unfavourably with Malaysia's 93-year-old Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who has consistently attended summit meetings saying it was his "duty" to do so.
Commenting on his absence, Duterte said on Thursday: "What's wrong with my nap?" Asked about the Papua New Guinea dinner, a Philippine official told AFP Duterte "feels constrained by formalities and finds them unproductive and a slight waste of time".
After hosting a regional meeting in the Philippines last year, an exhausted Duterte joked about cancelling another Manila summit saying, "It's true. It's all the same. Nothing changes". In Port Moresby, Duterte met with Filipinos on Friday night where he sought to explain his absence from summit meetings.
He cited an invitation from Australia to have an "informal breakfast" in Singapore. "I told my soldiers why would I attend when first of all, I do not eat breakfast. Second, it was informal," Duterte said. "What will they feed us there, kangaroo?"

Some of the best books of the season, recommended by Bookshop Santa Cruz staff. See our recommendations for young readers here.
The Testaments by Margaret Atwood
Fiction Recommendations
Jess's Reviews
Get ready, everyone: it's time to go back to Gilead. There aren't many clues as to what we can expect from this follow up to The Handmaid's Tale, but we can be sure that the journey will be harrowing. Atwood says she's been inspired to write The Testaments partly because of the current political climate in the United States, so perhaps we'll see a new Commander with a shockingly bad orange toupée? - Jess

The Sweetest Fruits by Monique Truong
Casey's Reviews
The Sweetest Fruits, Monique Truong is a brilliantly fictional retelling of the life of the Greek-Irish writer Lafcadio Hearn told through the stories of the three women, across multiple continents, who changed the direction of his life. This book is the best type of storytelling- one that connects to all senses, through journeys in time and place, and where the decisions and reflections of these women speak to the push and pull of women's needs throughout time. A creative and beautiful tale. - Casey

Everything Inside: Stories by Edwidge Danticat
Melinda's Reviews
At last, Edwidge Danticat (Krik? Krak!) returns to the short story, bringing her strong, clear, compassionate voice to the Haitian experience, whether in Miami, New York, or Haiti itself, and then beyond to the universal human experience. Examining loves lost or being found, families reimagined, and personal strength in the midst of crisis, Danticat cradles the complex heart of each, in vibrant, life-affirming prose. In her story "Dosas," there is an altered sticker that claims "Everything inside is worth dying for" — an equally apt way to describe this collection. - Melinda

Inland by Téa Obreht
The author of The Tiger's Wife takes on the country western in this novel about an outlaw and a homesteader whose paths cross, changing both of their lives forever. Obreht's ear for language will knock you sideways—you'll feel the wind whipping across your face as you stare across the wide plains. Fans of Cormac McCarthy and Larry McMurtry who are hungry for more can happily satiate themselves on this epic. - Jess

Published: Random House - August 13th, 2019
Quichotte by Salman Rushdie
Rico's Reviews
An homage to Don Quixote, the novel tells the story of a television-obsessed South Asian man who sets out on a journey to win the heart of an actress he's never met. Along for the ride is his imaginary son, Sancho. The book is also the story of Sam DuChamp, a mediocre and mostly failed author of spy thrillers—and the creator of Quichotte. Though one of the main characters is real, and a couple of the others are fictional, they are all fully realized, deeply human and absolutely compelling. As usual, Rushdie's writing dazzles with intelligence, humor, breakneck pacing and brilliant turns of phrase. This is easily my favorite novel of the year. - Rico

Dominicana by Angie Cruz
Katherine's Reviews
A luminous coming-of-age story. Ana, a young Dominican girl forced into marriage on the slim hope it will help bring her family to America, lives a life of cold isolation, confined to her abusive husband's New York apartment, but when political chaos draws him back to the island and Ana is left behind, a new world opens up beneath her feet, and Ana must choose between duty and desire. - Katherine

The World Doesn't Require You: Stories by Rion Amilcar Scott
Jason's Reviews
This book is a stream of devastating sermons on racial injustice. Metaphysical and often experimental short stories penned in raw and irreverent prose. If Friday Black was speculative Ta-Nahesi Coates, then this book is a speculative WuTang Album. Strong language warning! Not for your sweet little grandmama. - Jason

The Dearly Beloved by Cara Wall
Emma's Reviews
Alternating between four different perspectives, The Dearly Beloved delves into the lives of two ministers and their wives, each with different views on religion, family, and purpose. I love a book like this; one that shows the way we are all interpreting (and misinterpreting) our interactions with one another. Though I sometimes wished Wall had just stuck with her delightfully complicated female protagonists, I was fully carried away by this engaging novel. With so many themes to interpret and explore, The Dearly Beloved is the perfect book club pick. - Emma

The Lost Vintage by Ann Mah
Trey's Reviews
WWII Historical Fiction set in the vineyards of beautiful Burgundy France. This is a compelling story of survival during the German Occupation. A captivating tale of family, wine, romance, and mystery. Ann Mah has crafted a dual timeline story that pairs present-day Kate with her great aunt Helen-Marie. A long-lost diary found at the family's ancestral vineyard reveals secrets buried in the past. Complex characters and rich descriptive language make this an enjoyable and enlightening read. - Trey

The Hotel Neversink by Adam O'Fallon Price
Clara's Reviews
If every family has ghosts in their attic, think how many more accumulate in a sprawling family-run hotel. The Sikorsky family members come alive in their respective vignettes with their unique voices and inner worlds fully explored even as the broader plot unfolds. What makes The Hotel Neversink really sing to me is that the atmosphere and eeriness are always partnered with a vivid grittiness. There's blood and sweat on these pages and I couldn't put it down. - Clara

Rotork actuators on the Royal Navy's new aircraft carriers
Hundreds of Rotork electric actuators are being installed on the Royal Navy's giant new aircraft carriers HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales, both of which will be 920ft long and weigh in at 65,000 tonnes full displacement.
Each ship will be home to more than 1200 Rotork actuators, mostly operating ball and butterfly valves on duties encompassing sea water, fresh water, chilled water, fuel and fire-fighting systems.
The low maintenance demands of electric actuation made an important contribution to the contract award decision, as did Rotork's ability to satisfy all the specified requirements with commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) products. Rotork's ability included the provision of Profibus two-wire digital network connectivity, combined with proprietary non-intrusive configuration and data transfer technologies and the availability of sophisticated valve diagnostic information, facilitated by integral actuator data loggers.
For duties that are important for the integrity of the vessels' hulls, Rotork is supplying IQTN direct drive quarter-turn actuators, which have been developed from a market-leading commercial industry design to specifically meet the demands of naval marine duties. The IQTN design has been independently tested for shock tolerance and its overall size has been reduced to lower its centre of gravity and account for shipboard space restraints.
IQTN actuator setting and configuration is performed non-intrusively using a hand held setting tool and two-way wireless link. The integral data logger keeps a record of historical operating activity, including valve torque curves, which can be downloaded and analysed with Rotork software for maintenance planning or to identify and diagnose potential operating issues. The same software enables all set-up and configuration information to be reviewed, re-configured and then uploaded back into the actuator.
The majority of the remaining applications will be operated by Rotork ROMpak actuators, another specially developed design, introduced to provide the marine industry with a lightweight and compact solution for the operation of quarter-turn valves and dampers. All the Rotork actuator designs provide the option of local and remote control with a manual override.
For the provision of comprehensive control and feedback data about the valves, the actuators are equipped with the Rotork Profibus-DP card, which supports standard DP-V0 cyclic data exchange and DP-V1 acyclic data exchange for diagnosis, set-up and historical data.

What were the original casualty projections for Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
I remember hearing several times that the bombs dropped on Japan were a lot deadlier than expected. What were the original projections for casualties for both and how much less than the actual numbers were they?
world-war-two
Felix Goldberg
DForck42DForck42
I think that the Americans had a pretty good idea of the immediate destruction these bombs would cause - the problem was with the lasting effects that nobody really knew about back then. – Wladimir Palant Nov 2 '11 at 7:31
I've heard the initial death toll was something like 100,000-200,000 for both (they were of similar deadliness). And the fallout due to radiation (i.e. premature deaths) over the following decades was about the same for each city. – Noldorin Nov 2 '11 at 13:59
@Noldorin: That figure was given by Richard Frank in Downfall, FWIW. I consider the lower limit to be way low. – David Thornley Nov 4 '11 at 2:03
Nagasaki was in fact less destructive than originally estimated because of the exact drop point and the local geography, or so I've read. – jwenting Jan 29 '13 at 7:13
I found Vincent C. Jones' 1985 book Manhattan, the Army and the atomic bomb. While it doesn't mention the death toll estimates, it does offer some insight on pages 531 and 532. In particular, it quotes Oppenheimer with the words:
the neutron effect . . . would be dangerous to life for a radius of at least two-thirds of a mile.
So Oppenheimer estimated the contaminated area with roughly 3.5 km². Also, if you look at the further discussion of the psychological effects and choice of targets ("a vital war plant . . . surrounded by workers' houses") - I think that it makes clear that the atomic bomb was considered to be just like a conventional bomb, merely with more destructive power. It was expected to completely destroy the plant and damage everything close to it. The expected radius of destruction couldn't have been more than half a mile (meaning an area of 2 km²).
Now let's compare to what actually happened. This military study reconstructs the events and cites a radius of total destruction of 1 mile for both Hiroshima and Nagasaki (meaning an area of 8 km²). It also mentions the contaminated area measured by Americans when they arrived there: 8.9 km² in Hiroshima and 1.5 km² in Nagasaki (with a note that the nuclear fallout in Nagasaki was mostly outside the city).
This document from 1946 essentially estimates the immediate casualties in Hiroshima to 70,000-80,000 people. Given the difference between estimated and actual destruction radius, the expected death toll most likely wasn't more than 20,000 people.
The information on Nagasaki is less definitive. I better link to Wikipedia, you can go through the sources yourself. The numbers here are somewhat smaller than with Hiroshima, probably by factor 1.5.
As to radioactive contamination, it is very hard to say anything definitive here. It is clear that Oppenheimer underestimated the contaminated area. It is also clear that there was no knowledge on the long-term consequences of radiation exposure in 1945. The information that we have now comes to a large part from studies performed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I'm not sure whether reliable numbers exist but this article lists another 36,000 deaths in Hiroshima until the end of 1945, significantly declining after that.
Wladimir PalantWladimir Palant
They had a bit of an idea, at least where individuals are concerned, if not large populations. Most likely the issue was getting non-scientific leadership to grok the issue with what seemed to them to be just a really big explosive device. In Richard Feynman's first autobiography one of the anecdotes he mentioned was his attempts to get the military brass overseeing the project to take radiation protection for the workers seriously. – T.E.D.♦ Jan 29 '13 at 15:13
Actually those that claim they had a bit of an idea seem to not have read the notes of the targeting meeting.
The primary selection of a target had to have certain requirements and the first one being psychological - they wanted to end this war quickly.
The fact is that the United States had three such weapons at their disposal at the time and wanted to use them in quick succession to give the idea that the United States would use them one after the other until Japan capitulated.
Kyoto was selected as the first target because it was a scientific and cultural community where the psychological effects and the power of the weapon could be understood and communicated to those who would bring an end to the war. That all sounds well intentioned to use it this one time and get the attention of the Japanese leaders. The only problem with the logic here is the idea that there would be intellectual survivors that could inform the Japanese government and tell them to surrender. Think about that logic for a moment they thought there would be plenty of survivors of this first use of the weapon. So the casualty figures had to be very low.
Further Kokura was another target selected and the main target was a complex approximately 4100' long and there concern was to make sure they dropped the weapon precisely on that target so as to destroy it. Again the logic here that they had to be 'on target' with the drop in order to destroy the facility. Again this shows they did not understand the destructive power of the weapon at all.
Given this criteria and other information from the targeting meeting notes one could suspect that these people thought hey just a bigger firecracker not a completely destructive weapon.
Gathering as well from various sources a number of 20,000 was a plausible number of casualties. However one of the criteria for the target was city size and population figures since as strange as this might sound they figured on studying the effects while they were at it. Certain detonation points were selected for this purpose as well, knowing how many miles out from ground zero they could take readings and measurements. I guess if you are going to do it anyway you may as well know what you have and they used some of this data from the Hiroshima blast to determine effects at Nagasaki; however Nagasaki was limited due to the graphical topology and the fact the bomb was dropped almost 2 miles NW of the intended target location - which spared half of the city.
Kokura was the back up target for Hiroshima and they had managed to get just enough of a visual view to drop the bomb on Hiroshima (one of the requirements that was placed on the missions) no use of the radar bomb sighting.
Kokura lucked out on the first mission that Hiroshima cloud cover diminished for it to be bombed.
The second bomb Fat-Man Kokuro was the primary target it had a large military complex and chemical weapons factories - which were known about by the United States by the early summer of 1945.
When Bock's Car arrived in Kokura it was almost one hour later than it should have been and by this time the report of 3/10 cloud cover had changed to 7/10 and the requirement for visual target id caused Kokuro to be aborted and that the secondary target of Nagasaki be attempted - Nagasaki they assumed would have fewer casualties just because of the topology.
So now there is a term people use.. they might say you have Kokura's Luck when you dodge a big disaster.
Nagasaki was bombed but the target point was about 2 miles off. The crew had poor visibility, and was low on fuel and also was pressed into the mission even though the plane was not in ideal conditions. Originally the 'Great Artiste' was to drop the bombs on August 11th but the mission was moved up to the 9th and therefore the Bock's Car was used for the mission. Taken these things into consideration and looking at the crew logs for the flight it seems to me that they really did not have a clear visual of the target - if they had they would have been at least with in 1/2 to 1 mile of the target or they had to have some extreme winds blowing the weapon off course (unlikely).
The following is just my opinion relating to Nagasaki..
Given the pressures to get off the ground on the 9th instead of the 11th, to make the mission even with a bad fuel pump that it was determined the bomb will be dropped somewhere regardless; details about handling of the weapons in the event of a scrubbed mission left out for brevity. Given Bock's car loitered at the rendezvous point for 45 minutes (using fuel) and then they made 3 attempts at Kokura (using more fuel) that a determination was made if they did not drop the gadget while over Nagasaki they would not have enough fuel to return to any airbase. According to the logs one engine ran out of fuel upon landing in Okinawa and they had 7 gallons of fuel remaining. Had they been carrying the weapon Fat-Man they would not have made it to Okinawa. Again I believe they made the determination to say they had a visual id of the target and dropped the weapon using the radar sighting system. Given the options and the fact that they were witnesses of Hiroshima I am sure they figured what is a few miles when the entire city of Hiroshima was destroyed, so to preserve themselves they dropped it.
I am thinking if one were to check the variance of radar targeting at the time [SHORAN] - they might come up with at least a 2 mile variance.. Just a hunch the meeting notes seem to suggest this as well. [It was agreed that Dr. Stearns and Dr. Dennison should keep themselves continuously informed as to radar developments. If at any time new developments are available which show in combat a marked improvement of accuracy the basic plan may be altered.]
Sources to support assertions would greatly improve your answer. – sempaiscuba♦ Apr 22 '18 at 12:00
@PieterGeerkens There were no Parachutes on the bombs! You may have heard the term California Parachute this was a square fin design with 8 internal fins 4 of which were opposed, the tail fins were designed to control the fall stability of the bombs, but they were not parachutes. The drop time of 43 seconds is mathematically correct for a drop of such an object at about 30,000 feet down to ~1600 feet. This is consistent with the record as well 30k feet 43 seconds, 1650 feet. If they had real parachutes the time would have been longer. – Ken Apr 23 '18 at 10:19
I was unable to find actual numbers of estimated deaths. However, wholesale destruction of major parts of the target city was expected, with contributing factors consciously being maximized.
The Minutes of the second meeting of the Target Committee, Los Alamos, May 10-11, 1945 read as follows (emphasis mine):
Status of Targets
(2) Hiroshima - [...] is such a size that a large part of the city could be extensively damaged. There are adjacent hills which are likely to produce a focussing effect which would considerably increase the blast damage.
Psychological Factors in Target Selection
B. [...] Hiroshima has the advantage of being such a size and with possible focussing from nearby mountains that a large fraction of the city may be destroyed.
After the Trinity test allowed the scientists to verify their yield calculations for the more complicated implosion bomb type, the detonation height of the bombs was then set as to maximize the destructive mach stem effect.
DevSolarDevSolar
The Trinity Test had nothing to do with the Hiroshima bomb - being of a radically different and much more complicated design and much more difficult to fission (but more readily supplied) fuel. Efficiency of the enriched uranium and plutonium bombs was expected to be very different, so any lessons learned from Trinity wold have, for sound reasons, been ignored in regards Hiroshima. – Pieter Geerkens Jun 17 at 12:41
@PieterGeerkens: But the question is about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, isn't it? Also, the gun type bomb was rather well understood, as was its potential yield. Anyway, reworded. – DevSolar Jun 17 at 12:43

Q: mysql.sock error when deploying with AWS Ubuntu and RDS  Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
 Rails.root: /opt/deployment.myproject/releases/20140805050704

I've spent the better part of 3 days trying to find an answer to this question. Also trying to understand what's happening behind the scenes, but now I think it's a good time to just ask the world for help!
I'm deploying a Ruby on Rails application with AWS on an Ubuntu AMI, EC2, and RDS. I decided to go with a MSQL database because that's what I've built my app with, which has me using RDS.
Since I'm using RDS, and I have to provide an endpoint, username, and password, I'm thinking that maybe the hint "local" in the error tells me that it thinks the database is local. I believe it's not since it's on a different instance from my EC2 and being linked to. (Amirite?)
I've tried to search for a mysql.sock file with many different types of 'find' and 'grep' commands. The ones that actually do get a search return a huge list of directories displaying something like "no permission".
I've also searched for it at the path the error displays but there is no mysql directory in the run directory.
A few questions that I think might help answer this issue..
When exactly is this file created? When the database is created? Shouldn't this file be on the RDS instance then? Or is it created when I run either 'cap deploy:setup' or 'cap deploy'?
Since it says "Rails.root" I'm thinking that it's looking for the file starting from the root of the app, specifically. So something like app/var/run...etc instead of the actual root.
Oh, and by the way. When I FTP into the EC2 instance I get this message as well.
Could not change directory to "var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
Rails.root:/opt/deployment.myproject/releases/20140803230821".

Also: I was able to connect to RDS via Sequel Pro and my migrations ran perfectly via Capistrano because all my tables are there!
I think I've said enough. Here are some files that might be relevant:

Your logo is often the first impression that potential visitors have of your church, so it's important to make sure that the logo you have for your business is up-to-date and will represent your business well. Too many churches are content with an outdated logo that was designed by an amateur graphic designer, which inevitably gives the impression that their church is outdated and out-of-touch.
But how do you know if your logo is out of date if you're not a graphic designer? Here are some tell-tale signs that you need to consider a rebrand from a professional.
A logo file should look clean and professional, regardless of its size. If your logo looks pixelated when you stretch it to fit a larger flyer or billboard, then that means your designer failed to give you a vector logo! On the other hand, a vector file doesn't become pixelated, no matter how large you stretch it. Years ago, it was common for logos to be designed in applications that didn't produce vector files, which means that many churches today are left with logos that can't be used on larger print items.
Your logo is overly crowded. Crowded designs fail to do the one thing your logo should do: identify your brand quickly to someone's eye.
Your logo has a drop shadow. Drop shadows were cool in 1999, but in 2018, they are about as cool as a full-grown, nappy mullet.
Your logo is only text. There are a few exceptions to this rule, but it is standard to have an icon that identifies your brand without the use of text.
Your logo doesn't need to have a cross or bible. Nike's logo isn't a shoe, Coca-Cola doesn't incorporate a soda bottle, and Apple's logo doesn't include a computer. It's not bad to have a cross or bible, but forcing those into a logo often makes it look the church down the street.
Color choice doesn't matter. Your logo needs to use a color palette that fits your location and looks professional. The color palette for a church in Hawaii should probably look different from a church located in Kansas.
Is it important to me that our church has a professional representation on all of our print and web material?
Based on what I've read, is it likely that the church I lead needs a rebrand?
***It is my opinion that every church should have their branding handled through Stephen Houk Designs (shoukdesigns.com). As someone who does graphic design work for my own church and for local businesses, I am confident that he is one of the best I've seen at church branding work, for a fraction of the cost of other professionals on his level.

GREEK FINANCIAL MARKET
The General Index in Athens Stock Exchange (ASE) closed at 1,314.74 posting losses of 0.64%, in a turnover of €179.73mn.
Moody's altered its announcement for Greece rating for August 1 and if the agency decides to announce a change it will do so based on institutional obligations.
The German Finance Minister Mr. Wolfgang Schaeuble does not rule out the possibility of a third bailout deal for Greece in order to cover the country's funding gap over the next two years.
The head of the euro zone's bailout fund Mr. Klaus Regling warned Athens not to pay investors too much when it returns to bond markets later this month in order to avoid increasing its debt load.
The Deputy Prime Minister Mr. Evangelos Venizelos told after talks with the Prime Minister Mr. Antonis Samaras that the coalition government is determined to safeguard political stability despite differences of opinion between the two parties.
Morgan Stanley expects s Greece to achieve sustained growth, although it's likely to take longer than expected. The bank believes Greece could return to the bond market for funding and thinks secondary-market prices imply a fair yield of around 5.3% for a potential 5-year bond and 4.2% for a potential 3-year.
Corporate Impacts
Piraeus Bank: Subscription period: 7-9 April.
PPC: S&P's raised the credit rating to B from CCC, based on the signing of a €2.2bn syndicated loan with a number of Greek banks and the signing of loan with European Investment Bank and a consortium of foreign banks – led by the German bank KfW. The agency also said PPC's outlook was positive based on the estimate that the corporation will reduce its business and financial risks in the next two years. It also cited the very good relations between PPC and Greek banks. PPC signed a syndicated loan on Friday with Alpha Bank, Attica Bank, National Bank, Eurobank and Piraeus Bank.

I am still here. I haven't yet managed a sober day but I am staying here. I need help, and your advice, comments and support give me much needed strength. I read and reread the comments here. I know I need more help than the blog, but it is still very important for me to feel that you're out there.
My AA friend contacts me almost daily. I am going to an AA meeting tomorrow.
I am ok all day, but am crumbling around 5pm. I pour everything away in the morning, then seek out more in the afternoon. Work keeps me busy; its at home that I think, 'There's nothing wrong with me! You're imagining it! Think about something else!' Then I wake at 3am, knowing that I am in trouble, and that things will never change until I change my way of thinking.
I am two people: the busy, working Annie who is efficient and positive; and the other Annie who is weak and flailing.
Round and round I go, always trying to find another way out; but I know that I need to be back here, and that I need to be alcohol free.
I have been very busy at work, fine during the day and functioning well, but drinking at night: appearing to hold the whole thing together, but feeling dizzy and odd. I wake in the night and know that my hold is illusory.
Since I went back to work, my drinking has definitely escalated.
I am worried that one day I won't find my way back here.
So I am trying again. From today, I will not drink.
Mummywasasecretdrinker has written a brilliant post about doors – well, it's about lots of things, but the doors part has really struck me today. I have been steadily closing down doors, and I need to open them. I haven't been able to get a grip on a run of sober days, and now I'm back at work I have woken up pretty early today – Sunday – in a panic because I have so much to do. But I know I would feel so much calmer if the drink were gone.
As one or two people have recently commented, I started this blog 2 years ago. And I am still here, scrabbling away, not getting a grip. When I met Sober Mummy a few months ago, she asked me what I was afraid of? Why did not drinking scare me so much? The truth is, I haven't even tried it, not really. I haven't got past the craving, nagging period, I haven't felt any of the benefits; I've gone round and round the early days, gnawing at my nails before succumbing to another glass. I feel strong in so many areas of my life – but not in this area.
I am starting again today. Deep down inside of me, I want this, and I know I can do it. Otherwise, those doors may seal tight shut.
… and I know I said I wasn't going to write here until I had a week under my belt – a week would be good! – but I'm on Day 2 and I am glad. I just wanted to keep you posted.

Jod, a Nord warrior, is the captain of the guard in Dawnstar. He is also the housecarl of Jarl Skald. He is not nearly as adamant in supporting the Stormcloaks as Skald, caring more about the safety of the citizens of Dawnstar.
He begins his day of service to Dawnstar by waking up inside the White Hall at 8am. He will then proceed to head downstairs and take his place beside Skald. He will stand by Skald's side for the next 16 hours, ready to perform whatever duties are requested of him. After spending his entire day on his feet, Jod takes a much needed rest by heading to his sleeping quarters located in the room above the Jarl's and will then sleep here for the next 8 hours. He was supposed to take two one-hour meals throughout the day, one at 7am and one at 7pm, but does not due to a bug in his schedule.
If the Imperial Legion takes over Dawnstar, he will move to the Palace of the Kings along with Skald. He will spend his time here wandering around with the other exiled court members. Compared to the others, he is much less upset about being exiled, although he will still become unhappy when he sees you.
Jod wears Pale guard's armor and fur boots and gauntlets, and he carries a steel war axe, a Pale guard's shield, and some common items and gold.
While the citizens of Dawnstar are being plagued by nightmares, Jod will greet you with a reminder: "The Jarl is... tired. Be mindful of that." Otherwise, he will greet you with a fairly basic introduction: "I'm Skald's housecarl and head of his guard in Dawnstar." He does not seem to be very eager to go to war with the Empire, as he will often tell you: "My only aim is to keep the peace." However, he will tell you that Skald's view on the war is a little different than his own: "Skald is very... vocal about his hatred of the Empire." He seems to respect the power of the Imperial Legion, as he may comment: "The tenacity of the Imperial Legion is legendary. We need to be ready for them." He will then elaborate on this: "I served in the Great War against the Thalmor. I remember how bravely a Legionnaire can fight." When he is exiled and moved to the Palace of the Kings, Jod will not be interested in conversation and will simply tell you: "You should leave. Skald gets upset around Imperials." He may also tell you about how the loss of Dawnstar has impacted Skald and him: "Jarl Skald is upset over the loss of Dawnstar. I'll admit, it's less I have to worry about."
Jod was supposed to eat from 7am to 8am and also from 7pm to 8pm but does not. This is due to other packages taking precedence because of his housecarl alias, which causes him to only perform his sleeping package along with the package that has him stand by the Jarl.

As China and the United States appear to be on a collision course towards a trade war, Beijing's dogged pursuit of intellectual property may come back to bite it. Under section 301 of the US Trade Act of 1974, US President Donald Trump has the authority to take "all appropriate action" if a foreign country's trading practices are deemed to be unfair or restrictive to US Commerce.
Last week, the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) announced US$60 billion of new tariffs on Chinese imports. By targeting China's technology sector and areas such as AI, telecoms and autonomous vehicles – priority sectors in China's "Made in China 2025" master plan – Washington is hitting Beijing where it hurts.
