Vintage Hamilton Spot #1
Hamilton's First Men's Wristwatch . . .
When collectors think of Hamilton's "first wristwatch," the 6/0- size grade 986 "Cushion" of 1922 typically comes to mind. Though not particularly common, it is considered "plentiful" compared to its predecessor, the Hamilton "0-size" wristwatch, Hamilton's first wristwatch for men.
0-sized wristwatches themselves are not rare, but of the many 0-size wristwatches offered by the various manufacturers (Waltham, Elgin and Gruen) between 1914 and 1923, the Hamilton 0-size men's wristwatches are thought to be the rarest. This is in good part because so few were made, but it is also because of the few that were made, a good portion were likely melted down for their heavy silver and gold cases during the Great Depression. Occasionally, silver examples surface but the 14K solid gold round and cushion-shaped 0-size wristwatches, of which only 450 were manufactured in all grades (983, 985, and 981), are practically nonexistent today.
The 0-sized wristwatch was introduced in 1917 and available with either the 983 17-jewel movement or the 985 19-Jewel movement. Both movements where originally manufactured as "ladies pendent" movements and in fact, all men's 0-sized wristwatches which contained the 983 movement were labeled "Lady Hamilton" on the bridge of the movement itself.
Naturally, Hamilton had to make a movement specifically for "men" as male customers who purchased a Hamilton "wristwatch for men" were not particularly happy to find "Lady Hamilton" written across the bridge of their new $46.00 "men's wristwatch." Enter the new 17-jewel grade 981 movement which was specifically manufactured for use only in a factory-cased men's wristwatch model. This new Hamilton "Wrist Watch for Men," grade 981, was a 0-size, nickel, 3/4-plate adjusted movement with 17 jewels in gold settings, and featured a Breguet hairspring, dou¬ble roller escapement, sapphire pallets, and compensation balance.
The 981 was first manufactured in 1919 and continued until 1921, the year before Hamilton's significantly smaller 986 6/0-sized Cushion was introduced. In fact, both watches appeared in the 1922 Hamilton Catalog at the same time (see above). But by 1922, "smaller" was "better" and popularity of the "large" 0-sized wristwatch was becoming a thing of the past. Men wanted the sleek and streamline 6/0-sized Cushion instead and by May of 1921, the grade 981 wristwatch was no longer available. Inventoried round cases continued to be sold into 1923 but they were no longer offered as an option to wholesalers.
Though difficult to find, these 0-sized wristwatches containing grade 983 (17-jewel), grade 985 (19-jewel), and grade 981 (17-jewel) 0-size wristwatches, were unquestionably Hamilton's "first wristwatch for men." But just as importantly, they are also rare and historically significant timepieces and the beginning of what was to become, "America's finest wristwatch."
When a Hamilton is a Howard . . .
We all know that Hamilton purchased the Illinois Watch Company, but what is less known was Hamilton's purchase of another prominent watch company - the E. Howard Watch Company, the makers of the famous E. Howard and Howard pocket watches.
E. Howard was known to make some of the finest American pocket watches of their era. In fact Howard pocket watches were very much respected by the Swiss as the "finest in mechanical timepieces." Hamilton recognized this as well and in 1931, three years after the purchase of the Illinois Watch Company in 1928, Hamilton purchased the goodwill and trademarks of the E. Howard Watch Company.
Interestingly, Howard never made a regular production "wristwatch" so it is a double oddity that Hamilton would do just that, make a "Hamilton/Howard" wristwatch. Although never active in the manufacture of "Howard" watches, Hamilton did produce a very small quantity under the "Howard" brand name and conducted tests in the market for this once famous timepiece.
Apparently, the test results did not weather well as Howard wristwatches were never placed in full production. This rare Howard wristwatch pictured above, was the first in a series of Howard wristwatches made by Hamilton in an effort to protect Hamilton's trademark rights to the "Howard Watch Company" name. These wristwatches were distributed by select wholesalers to jewelers. Once supplies were exhausted, no other Howard examples were made with the exception of one other 14K solid gold example which was cased in a Hamilton Pierre case in 1942 and finally, an example which was sold in a 14K gold-filled Hamilton Stanford case in 1946.
This particular example which utilized the 1935 14K yellow gold Seneca case (made by Wadsworth), used a redesigned Hamilton 980 17-jewel movement which was renamed H980 ("H" for "Howard"). The movement is identical to the Hamilton 980 series with the exception of the damaskeening on the base plates and circular damaskeening on the crown and barrel wheel.
Hamilton/Howard wristwatches are very rare. Early Hamilton collectors thought of these watches as "franken-watches" (watches pieced together from different watches) and of the several hundred that were made in total, many were likely cannibalized or disassembled for parts.
When Hamilton was more than Just a Wristwatch . . .
In an effort to move mail more quickly, Assistant Postmaster General Otto Praeger instituted the first regularly scheduled airmail service in the world. It took just 200 minutes for a letter to travel from New York to Washington DC., fast by the standards of the time. Today, mail is more commonly sent via cyber "airway" - email, and it arrives at its destination almost instantly. Times have certainly changed.
When the first regularly scheduled airmail service was established, the pilots were military officers and they carried with them two instruments to fly by - a compass and a wristwatch. Both instruments were necessary for what was commonly known as "dead-reckoning" flying. Pilots would quip at the time: "With "dead-reckoning," if you "reckon" wrong, you're dead." And that almost came to pass.
On May 15th 1918, airmail's inaugural flight, two pilots were set to leave at the same time - one from Washington DC, heading toward New York and the other from New York, heading to Washington DC. The pilots quickly realized that they couldn't fully rely on their compasses and in fact, the flight from Washington to New York (with a scheduled stopover in Philadelphia), was unsuccessful as the pilot crashed just twenty-four miles away from his initial take-off. The plane flipped over but thankfully, the pilot, Lieutenant George L. Boyle was unhurt (the New York to Washington DC flight, went off without a hitch). As it turned out, the compasses that were utilized proved to be faulty as they were distorted by the metal in the plane. Not so with their other instrument - the Hamilton 0-size Aviation Model.
This specially designed wristwatch was ideal for the mission - it contained a "double bezel" and "shatterproof" crystal that protected the watch from any inadvertent bangs or jars. But most importantly, the watch kept time by railroad standards and could be easily relied on for such a historic event. The time-keeper that was known as "The Watch of Railroad Accuracy" was just promoted to the "Watch of the US Mail Aviators." Hamilton outfitted the entire fleet with the 0-sized Hamilton Aviation Model wristwatch and each one performed flawlessly.
The New York Times heralded the achievement, reporting that the new mail service should be known as the "Cloudland Mail" service (mentioned as such in the Hamilton ad above) and as exciting as the accomplishment was, its prospect for "transatlantic" flights and longer domestic flights was even more exciting. In fact, it was Hamilton that timed the "longest airmail flight in the world" in August of 1920 – from New York to San Francisco.
On August 12th 1918, the Post Office began carrying the mail themselves and subsequently, the military was no longer needed. But in a little less than three months, the Army made 270 flights carrying over 40,500 pounds of mail. These brave men battled inclement weather, several crashes and sixteen mechanical breakdowns - all while relying on the Hamilton 0-sized Aviation Model wristwatch.
Times have indeed changed - More mail is now sent via email than carrier mail but that by no means takes away from the mail service's long and distinguished history. So it is true with the Hamilton wristwatch – much has changed: from mechanical, to electric – the technological equivalent of "airmail to cyber mail." Hamilton has a long and distinguished history marked by many great accomplishments and its history is intertwined with some of the most exciting technological achievements of the last century.
The photo below is a Hamilton 0-sized Aviation Model as seen in the Hamilton ad above.
The Movement that Started it All . . .
At first glance, one can easily look at the above pictured movement and wonder what it is that defines it as "special." Though it may not be much to look at, the movement pictured above is the prototype utilized initially in Hamilton's pendant watches and later in men's wristwatches - it is the working model for the 0-size 17-jewel 983 movement; the movement that inhabited Hamilton's very first wristwatch for men.
This 0-sized prototype came directly from Hamilton's archives and was stored in its original tin marked:
0-size
Plate & Bridges
patterned after
Meylan watch
No dial or
758
No one knows what the "758" stood for - perhaps it was the suggested model number of this new movement, or perhaps it was the inventory number utilized in Hamilton's archives, or still yet, it may have something to do with the Meylan that it was modeled after. We may never know the answer to that question, but what we do know is that CH Meylan made some of the finest high-grade hand-finished watches in their day. Indeed, the 983 0-size is so similar to the Meylan, when one looks at an early Meylan comparatively; it takes a discerning eye to notice the differences between the two.
The Meylan modeled Hamilton 0-size had an appearance that was reminiscent of Hamilton's Swiss competitors, however, unlike the Swiss, it was an incredibly robust movement - a trait distinctly indicative of American watch manufacturers. A watch collector and expert that I often refer to describes it best when he says while looking at the balance-wheel of a Swiss watch - "A fine Swiss balance-wheel glides with the fluidity of perpetual motion, while an American balance-wheel moves with the unstoppable momentum of a freight train." This may be in part, due to the finer tolerances Swiss watch manufactures incorporated in their "atelier" style of manufacturing, while American watch manufactures concentrated their efforts on interchangeability and assembly-line construction. One mode of manufacture is not necessarily better than the other as both have their strengths as well as their weaknesses.
But the one thing that was similar with all 0-sized wristwatches was the size of the watches themselves. American 0-size watches of the late-teens were considerably larger than wristwatches made during the early 1920's. When one compares the 0-size to Hamilton's second generation wristwatch, the 6/0-size Cushion, there is little doubt from which "era" the 0-size came. The 6/0-size was a far smaller and more compact offering. In fact, it would not be until the nineteen seventies that wristwatches of the 0-size diameter would come back into vogue.
The Hamilton 0-size wristwatch is exceedingly rare; perhaps the rarest of all production American 0-size wristwatches. Their rarity however, does not negate their importance in American horology, or the importance it played as the forerunner of every Hamilton wristwatch thereafter.
The above prototype is a historic and significant exemplar – its decedents would set the standard for American quality and craftsmanship and establish watch manufacturing processes that would revolutionize the watch trade both here and abroad and proudly earn Hamilton the distinction as "America's Finest Watch."
The 0-Size Family Clockwise starting at twelve - 0-Size Prototype, 0-Size Spring bar 1922, 0-Size Cushion Wire-lug 1920, 0-Size Cushion 14K gold 1919, Center - 983 0-Size Movement in Cushion Wire-lug 1918
A Trio of Classics . . .
Prior to 1928, if one was interested in purchasing a new Hamilton, the choice was pretty simple – the Cushion, the Square, the Oval, the Tonneau or the Barrel. The defining difference in each model was the choice, "engraved" or "plain." There was no choice in movement either – each model was offered with Hamilton's workhorse, the 17-jewel 987 movement. All told, Hamilton's "Geometric" offerings spanned ten years - beginning in 1917 with the 0-sized Cushion and ending in 1927 with the Oval.
But that all changed in 1928. Hamilton was preparing for the release of their new "flagship" movement – the 19-jewel, 979 movement and Hamilton wanted an exciting new model to showcase what Hamilton described as the "model built to meet the demand for a man's wrist watch in the higher priced bracket." Enter the renowned Hamilton Piping Rock!
Few vintage or modern watches have the cache of the Piping Rock. This distinctly American wristwatch was unique in many ways – it was the first to utilize Hamilton's new 979 movement, it was Hamilton's first foray into the "high-priced" market (it sold for $125.00) and contained a dial without numerals as the numerals where raised gold Roman numerals incorporated into an enameled circular bezel, and finally, the Piping Rock utilized a "hand-made" case by S&W (Schwab & Wuischpard), one of the finest watch case makers of the time.
The use of enamel was by no means unique to Hamilton as both Waltham and Elgin released enamel wristwatches that were the Piping Rock's contemporaries as well as competitors. But both company's examples lacked the classic styling that would later establish the Piping Rock as the "quintessential" vintage wristwatch.
The Piping Rock, with its sleek design and handsome looks, would likely be included in almost every "short-list" of "must have" vintage watches – both American and or Swiss. Its classic lines and conservative symmetry make the Piping Rock as striking today as it was when first introduced in 1928.
But the Piping Rock was not alone – in an effort to capitalize on the Piping Rock's success, Hamilton introduced two additional models for what was to become a "Trio of Classics."
In 1929, Hamilton issued the Spur, approximately seven months after the Piping Rock's introduction. The Spur, without question, defines the era in which it came. It can easily be described as small and somewhat feminine for a man's wristwatch but when push comes to shove, few people would argue that the Spur is likely the "greatest vintage watch of all time." It is unique unto itself and the rarest of the three enamel watches that Hamilton produced.
The Coronado was also introduced in 1929, and had significantly more in common with its earlier sibling, the Piping Rock than it did with the Spur. The Coronado utilized the Piping Rock's back and center case pieces but substituted the Piping Rock's circular bezel with a broad bezel that hid the Piping Rock's skeletal center case piece.
These three watches, the Piping Rock, Spur and Coronado stand alone in American horology as some of the most striking and revolutionary designs of the Art Deco era. Fortunately, the Piping Rock, and less so, the Coronado, can still be found at comparably reasonable prices. The Spur however, is a rarity that is not easily found, and as such, sells for considerably more than it earlier siblings.
The Hamilton Cushion – A Variation on a Theme . . .
When Hamilton first introduced the 6/0-size Hamilton "Cushion Round Opening" in 1922, it was not unlike the Cushions introduced by its competitors of the time – Illinois, Waltham and Elgin. Indeed, the "cushion" shape was so popular, Hamilton resurrected the design on three separate occasions and the offering was available almost continually from 1922 until 1949 – No other Hamilton enjoyed so long a "run" as the Cushion. Certainly, there were models that Hamilton sold more of than they did the Cushion, but no other Hamilton enjoyed a twenty-seven year run that the Cushion enjoyed, and subsequently, the Cushion can arguably be described as Hamilton's most successful model.
The earliest version of the Cushion, the Cushion Round Opening was introduced in 1922. The Cushion Round Opening, pictured above is a 14K solid gold version of the classic Hamilton Cushion and the case lug design differs slightly from the silver manufactured Cushions of the same period. Like its later examples, the case was manufactured by Wadsworth and was introduced to the public in "silver only" and contained the 17-jewel 986 movement. It was unquestionably Hamilton's most popular Cushion Round Opening model with 22,507 examples produced in silver, 14K white, green and yellow gold and 14K white, green and yellow gold-filled. Production of this example ran from 1922 until 1926 when it was replaced by the updated "Cushion Form Opening."
The "Cushion Form Opening" was similar to the "Cushion Round Opening" only the dial opening was "cushion shaped" as opposed to "round shaped." This variation ran from 1926 until 1932 and was a very popular model.
But in 1930, the Cushion Round Opening made its second appearance. It was known as the Cushion "B" and was designed to appeal to "sportsmen." As America quickly slipped into the Depression, Hamilton concentrated their marketing efforts by promoting models that were named after famous American explorers, adventures and pilots. The Glenn Curtiss, Byrd and the Captain Rice were three such examples.
Often mistaken for the earlier Cushion Round Opening of 1922, the Cushion "B" utilized a very similar case construction. The dial variations however, offered what Hamilton believed to be a more "sportsman" like style and attempted to appeal to aviators - the Cushion "B" was one of the first Hamilton watches marketed specifically to aviators - an avocation that was very much in its infancy in 1930. The Cushion "B" pictured above utilizes the rare "aviation dial." The aviation dial was made to appeal to pilots while simultaneously promoting Hamilton as the watch of adventures. Even with its similarity to the early Cushion Round Opening and its marketing to aviators, the Cushion "B" was not very popular and production ceased by 1934.
We would not see the Cushion Round Opening again until 1940 only this time, the Cushion Round Opening was known as the War-time Cushion.
During World War II, government restrictions required that Hamilton production concentrate on the war effort and indeed, no "regular" consumer models were manufactured during the war with the exception of the 10K gold-filled Cushion. These war-time Cushions are distinct from the 1922 Cushions and the 1930 Cushion "B" as they were produced in 10K gold-filled and the case manufacture, "Wadsworth" was stamped on the outer back of the case (there are examples of 14K gold-filled variations in white gold-filled but they are very scarce). Also, war-time Cushions utilized obsolete 986 and 986A movements which were out of production for nearly 20 years.
The vast majority of these Cushions were manufactured during war-time and in an effort to conserve war-time essentials such as brass and stainless steel, many were made of vermeil - 10K gold over a sterling silver base.
Bonus Vintage Post from Will Roseman
Joe DiMaggio is as much a part of Americana as Hamilton is - both represent the best of American culture and refinement and both served as the finest examples of American excellence. As such, I find it only befitting that the Hamilton Seneca* below was Joltin' Joe's favorite wristwatch and it was a watch that he wore with great pride (you can see the watch on his wrist in the picture below - I have more pictures if anyone is interested). During his career, Mr. DiMaggio received over fifty wristwatches, some as gifts, many as awards or presentations - but this watch meant something more to him, according to his grand-daughters, it was one of Mr. DiMaggio's favorite watches and he kept this watch in his jewelry box up until the day that he died.
This watch had particular significance for Joe as there were three things that the "Yankee Clipper" was particularly proud of - this Catholic faith, his Italian heritage and his working-class up-bringing. "Giuseppe Paolo DiMaggio" was raised by his Sicilian parents in San Francisco and was named "Giuseppe" after his father and "Paolo" after Saint Paul, his father's favorite saint. Joe's father was a fisherman as were previous DiMaggio's before him though Joe had no liking for the profession. Thankfully, his talent with a ball and bat saved him from a fishing career but Joe never forgot where he came from; so when the St. Raphael's Holy Name Society presented him this 14K gold Hamilton Seneca, he took particular pride in knowing that it came from an Italian congregation from the Italian fishing village of Bridgeport, Conn.
On September 19th 1937 Joe traveled all the way up to Bridgeport Connecticut to meet the congregation of Saint Raphael and the Saint Raphael's boy's baseball team. He took the team back with him to Yankee stadium where they were given the honor of watching Joe at his best. He was heard saying that it was "one of his proudest nights in the stadium" and that "his greatest wish was to live up to these boys expectations." Just prior to the game, the team made a special presentation to Joe in the presence of tens of thousands of fans - the Hamilton Seneca. I had the privilege of interviewing an individual who assisted in the presentation to him and though he was well into his eighties, he remembers it as one of the most exciting times in his life. He told me that the Hamilton was chosen because it was considered the finest watch made at the time and they had it engraved in his honor. The team members contributed to the watch's purchase and this kind gesture struck a note with Joe as it reminded him of himself as a boy and he told them that he "would wear the watch as a reminder of where he came from and the sacrifice of this parents and all Italian immigrants that came to this country for a better life."
* The Seneca was offered as one of a new series of 14K solid gold Hamilton's containing the newly introduced 982 19 jewel movement. This new design series was constructed "curved to fit the wrist" and even included a unique curved dial construction. Of the solid gold "first generation" models to utilize the 982 19-jewel movement, the Seneca holds the longest production record. Originally named "Seneca," Hamilton changed the name of this model to "Sherwood" shortly after release. There are no existing Hamilton records which indicate the reason for the name change.
PS - I am writing an article about the watch and it's presentation for the NAWCC Bulletin and will post the article here once completed (if allowed, I am not sure what the rules are regarding the posting of complete articles here).

Vintage Spot - The Difference between Scarce and Rare . . .
The Difference between Scarce and Rare . . .
I am often asked if a particular Hamilton is "rare" or "scarce" and surprisingly, that question often gives me reason to ponder - exactly what is the difference between "scarce" and "rare," or for that matter, "rare and "ultra rare?" The question is further complicated by "scarce" Hamilton's that have "rare" dials, or a Hamilton that is "rare" in yellow gold, but "ultra rare" in white gold.
That question will likely never be answered in a clear and concise manner and it brings to mind Supreme Court Justice Potter's colloquial expression when describing the indescribable - "I can't describe it, but I know it when I see it." With watch collectors, a better expression when describing the differences between "scarce" and "rare" would be "I can't describe it, but I know it when I don't see it." Simply put, "rarity" has a direct correlation to "surviving examples." When was the last time you saw a Hamilton Oakley - the fact that few people have ever seen one, or even seen a picture of one is proof positive that it is a "rare" watch - correction, an "ultra rare" watch.
Let's use the Hamilton Coronado as an example to exemplify a point. No one can deny that the Coronado is "scarce" though some might say it's "rare." There were 2,407 made in 14K white gold between 1930 and 1932. But the question is - does the production of 2,407 examples qualify as "rare?" I've certainly seen enough E-Bay titles heralding "Rare Hamilton Coronado for Sale!" But as we all know, just because E-Bay says it is, doesn't mean it's so.
But in this case, I think E-Bay might be right. 2,407 watches is not a lot of watches - especially by today's standards, therefore, the white Coronado, in my opinion, would qualify as "scarce." However, over the course of the last seventy-nine years, a major depression, numerous recessions and gold reaching highs regularly, my guess is that there are significantly less white Coronado's today than there was in 1930. How many less, no one knows for sure, but I would bet it's at least fifty percent less as I am confident that at least that many have been melted down or accidentally destroyed. Subsequently, I would say that the Coronado, though originally "scarce," can now be confirmed as "rare."
But what about "rare" and "ultra rare?" A quick glance of the picture above, one might not immediately notice a difference between the two Coronado's, but let's use this picture as an example defining the differences between "rare" and "ultra rare." We know from our discussion that the white Coronado on the left is "rare." But, the Coronado on the right is one of only twenty-five examples made (If you notice, it has a Roman numeral bezel as opposed to the far more typical Coronado which sported an Arabic numeral bezel (on left)).
The Coronado was the last of the three enamel Hamilton's made between 1928 and 1929 - The Piping Rock was introduced first, followed by the Spur and then, the white Coronado, which was issued in May of 1930 (yellow examples were released late 1929). It's interesting to note that both the earlier Piping Rock and Spur utilized an enamel Roman numeral bezel just like the Coronado on the right. In keeping with conformity, one would naturally think that the Roman Numeral bezel was issued before the Arabic Numeral due to its similarity to its earlier siblings; but that's simply not so. The first Coronado's had Arabic numerals, not Roman numerals. It was not until June 11th 1930 that the Roman numeral example was made – almost a month after the original Arabic numeral variation. Were the Roman numeral versions special orders? Were they issued by mistake? Did Hamilton think that they might offer both examples to their customer base? I think most would agree that the Arabic numeral is the more beautiful Art Deco design, so why would Hamilton make the Roman numeral example and why make so few of them?
These are questions that we'll likely never know the answer to, just like we're likely to continue our discussions defining the differences between terms "scarce," "rare," and "ultra rare." But these Coronado examples do serve one purpose – we can now plainly and without question discern the difference between "rare" and "ultra rare" - at least for this example. :001_smile:

Q: Parts of the Ubuntu 18.04 GUI (nautilus, editor) not updating This is my first topic here so please excuse me if I'm not sticking to the rules 100%.
My current problem is, that I cannot browse through different files or write in my Editor. I don't get any error messages.
Whenever I open nautilus (files), the window pops up correctly, but when I want to browse to a subfolder, the gui is not refreshing even though I get this little loading circle on the cursor. Ctrl+R also does not update the gui correctly. I can open .txt files by doubleclicking them if I know where they are, so the application is not completely crashed. Merely the window is not refreshing correctly.
The same happens when I open the editor, I can open it and type stuff, but I don't see what is written. Browsing through the folders via the terminal works without any issue.
I already tried
sudo apt-get purge nautilus
sudo apt-get install nautilus

and
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-shell

based on this answer but it did not solve the problem.
I also killed all nautilus processes manually without solving the issue. Because it is not only affecting nautilus I expect the error to be somewhere else, but I honestly have no idea where to look at. Since it is a headless machine used for research purposes I can't just restart the server, or better said I don't want to stop the codes of our students if there might be a different fix.
A GTX 1050 is installed with the driver 440.48.02.
Has anybody else experienced this behavior and/or found a solution?

Slavery in Korea existed since before the Three Kingdoms of Korea period, approximately 2,000 years ago.[4]
Slavery has been described as "very important in medieval Korea, probably more important than in any other East Asian country, but by the 16th century, population growth was making [it] unnecessary".[5] Slavery went into decline around the 10th century, but came back in the late Goryeo period when Korea also experienced a number of slave rebellions.[4]
In the Joseon period, members of the slave class were known as nobi. The nobi were socially indistinct from freemen (i.e., the middle and common classes) other than the ruling yangban class, and some possessed property rights, legal entities and civil rights. Hence, some scholars argue that it's inappropriate to call them "slaves",[6] while some scholars describe them as serfs.[7][8] Furthermore, the Korean word for an actual slave, in the European and American meaning, is noye, not nobi.[8] Some nobi owned their own nobi.[9]
Household nobi served as personal retainers and domestic servants, and most received a monthly salary that could be supplemented by earnings gained outside regular working hours.[10][11] Out-resident nobi resided at a distance and were little different than tenant farmers or commoners.[10] They were registered officially as independent family units and possessed their own houses, families, land, and fortunes.[11] Out-resident nobi were far more numerous than household nobi.[12] In the chakkae system, nobi were assigned two pieces of agricultural land, with the resulting produce from the first land paid to the master, and the produce from the second land kept by the nobi to consume or sell. In order to gain freedom, nobi could purchase it, earn it through military service, or receive it as a favor from the government.[10] The nobi population could fluctuate up to about one-third of the population, but on average the nobi made up about 10% of the total population.[4]
The hierarchical relationship between yangban master and nobi was believed to be equivalent to the Confucian hierarchical relationship between ruler and subject, or father and son.[13] Nobi were considered an extension of the master's own body, and an ideology based on patronage and mutual obligation developed. The Annals of King Taejong stated: "The nobi is also a human being like us; therefore, it is reasonable to treat him generously" and "In our country, we love our nobis like a part of our body."[14]
In 1426, Sejong the Great enacted a law that granted government nobi women 100 days of maternity leave after childbirth, which, in 1430, was lengthened by one month before childbirth. In 1434, Sejong also granted the husbands 30 days of paternity leave.[15]
The nobi system declined beginning in the 18th century.[16] Since the outset of the Joseon dynasty and especially beginning in the 17th century, there was harsh criticism among prominent thinkers in Korea about the nobi system. Even within the Joseon government, there were indications of a shift in attitude toward the nobi.[17] King Yeongjo implemented a policy of gradual emancipation in 1775,[5] and he and his successor King Jeongjo made many proposals and developments that lessened the burden on nobi, which led to the emancipation of the vast majority of government nobi in 1801.[17] In addition, population growth,[5] numerous escaped slaves,[4] growing commercialization of agriculture, and the rise of the independent small farmer class contributed to the decline in the number of nobi to about 1.5% of the total population by 1858.[9] The hereditary nobi system was officially abolished around 1886–87,[4][9] and the rest of the nobi system was abolished with the Gabo Reform of 1894.[4][18] However, slavery did not completely disappear in Korea until 1930, during Imperial Japanese rule.
During the Imperial Japanese occupation of Korea around World War II, some Koreans were used in forced labor by the Imperial Japanese, in conditions which have been compared to slavery.[4][19] These included women forced into sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army before and during World War II, known as "comfort women".[4][19]
Modern slavery[edit]
South Korea[edit]

In media reports from 2015, the abuse and exploitation of people with disabilities on rural island salt farms in Sinan County has been described as slavery.[20][21]
In terms of people in modern slavery in absolute numbers South Korea ranked 128th in the 2014 Global Slavery Index, with some 93,700 people estimated to be enslaved.[1]
North Korea[edit]

With 1,100,000 people in modern slavery (via forced labor), North Korea is ranked world number one in terms of the percentage of population in modern slavery, 4.373 percent, in The Walk Free Foundation's 2016 Global Slavery Index.[22] North Korea is the only country in the world that has not explicitly criminalized any form of modern slavery.[23] A United Nations report listed slavery among the crimes against humanity occurring in North Korea.[2]

The serfdom thesis is based largely on the work of the North Korean scholar, Kim Sok-hyong, who divided nobis into 'resident' and 'non-resident' groups. The former lived under the same roof as their masters, for whom they performed domestic and the greater part of agricultural labour. The latter dwelt far from their masters' houses, cultivating land for which they paid rent to their masters, and possessed their own personal property. In reality, their situation was similar to that of tenant farmers. Kim therefore considered 'resident' nobis to be slaves, and 'non-resident' nobis to be serfs. As the latter group were far more numerous, he concluded that serfdom characterized Chosun society.

A 17-year-old with cerebral palsy just walked across the finish line at the Las Vegas Great Santa Run.
Mena Hawkins, a junior at Liberty High School in Las Vegas, completed the one-mile course, using her walker, in 38 minutes, her father, Roger Hawkins, told CNN.
Friends and family walked with her, clad in Santa garb, and hoisted signs that said "Go Mena." Her grandmother flew all the way from England to see her walk.
To top it off, a team of cheerleaders lined up at the end of the course to welcome her across the finish line with confetti.
Mena uses a manual wheelchair and cannot walk without help from her reverse walker.
Halloween costumes wouldn't fit his son's wheelchair. Now this dad builds epic outfits himself
But she was determined to push through to her new personal milestone.
She's been training since March
Born nine weeks premature, Mena developed cerebral palsy when she was 16 months old. The condition primarily affected her legs, along with her fine motor skills. Writing, in particular, is very difficult for her.
About 1 in 345 children has some form of cerebral palsy, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
More than half of children with CP can walk independently. About 1 in 10 children with CP walk with a hand-held mobility device, the CDC says.
Mena participated in the Santa Run six years ago, but she was still walking when the event officially ended. She was so far behind that officials opened up the roads to traffic before she was finished.
"We were tucked in on the sidewalk to avoid the cars," Roger Hawkins told CNN.

That experience sparked something in her. "I felt like it was a huge achievement," she said. And she vowed to try again.
She's been training for this year's Santa Run since March, with a regimen walking various routes with hills and inclines. She even trained on 110-degree days during the summer.
She spent time in the gym lifting free weights and focusing on core work, which helps her stand up taller and longer.
Mena said it's been "really rewarding" to get her training time down to 42 minutes.

For Saturday's race, she slashed through that training time, hitting the mile mark in just 38 minutes.
She wants to help inspire others
In the run-up to the event, Mena created a fundraising page to help collect money for Opportunity Village, a non-profit that helps people with disabilities find jobs or pursue their dreams.
Donations poured in from friends and relatives in England and America. They raked in donations "from people we don't even know," her father said.
"Our whole family is inspired," he added. "She's really developed as a person."
From here, Mena says her plan is to "continue practicing walking and get stronger over time."
She hopes her story could help motivate others to overcome adversity in their own lives.
"Be confident in yourself," she says. "Achieve your end goal. And be happy about it."

Daryl Dixon è un personaggio della serie televisiva The Walking Dead, interpretato da Norman Reedus. Insieme a Rick Grimes è il protagonista della serie, seppur sia lui che suo fratello Merle sono tra i pochi personaggi a non avere una controparte nel fumetto da cui la serie è tratta.

Descrizione
Daryl Dixon è uno scontroso uomo sulla trentina (cinquantina nelle ultime stagioni), abile cacciatore ed esperto segugio. Ha avuto un'infanzia complicata, segnata da un padre spesso ubriaco. È stato cresciuto dal fratello, duro nei suoi confronti, anche se spesso era assente perché finiva in riformatorio. Si è unito, insieme a suo fratello maggiore Merle, a dei superstiti dopo la diffusione del virus che ha trasformato in zombie le persone. Dapprima schivo, dopo la scomparsa del fratello comincerà a legare con Rick e il resto del gruppo.
Nonostante il suo carattere duro, Daryl ha un forte senso del gruppo, non mira a capeggiare ed è sempre pronto ad aiutare gli altri membri, senza chiedere aiuto o supporto. Nessuno s'impegnerà più di lui nella ricerca della piccola Sophia, quando questa si perderà nei boschi, e rischierà la sua stessa vita nella ricerca e per riportare alla madre la sua bambina. Ricopre un ruolo fondamentale perché diventa il braccio destro di Rick Grimes.

Biografia del personaggio

Prima stagione
Daryl rimane sconvolto quando scopre che Rick, assieme ad altri sopravvissuti, ha abbandonato il fratello Merle. Ritorna in città per liberarlo assieme a Rick, Glenn e T-Dog, però non lo ritrovano. Trovano invece soltanto la mano di Merle che lui stesso doveva essersi tagliato per fuggire, dato che l'avevano ammanettato sul tetto e avevano maldestramente perso la chiave. L'uomo avrebbe avuto pochissime probabilità di vivere da solo e ferito. Daryl per un po' resterà in disparte ma poi inizierà un legame sempre più stretto con il gruppo e con Rick che l'appoggerà nelle sue decisioni più difficili.

Seconda stagione
Non appena scopre che Sophia è scomparsa, Daryl cerca di trovarla ad ogni costo; Difatti lui è uno dei pochi del gruppo a pensare che esista ancora una speranza di ritrovarla sana e salva. Purtroppo, ciò che Daryl riuscirà a trovare sarà solamente la bambola di Sophia e, per recuperarla, dovrà rischiare la vita. La speranza però muore quando si scopre che la piccola Sophia si trova all'interno del fienile della fattoria dove il gruppo era rifugiato. Dentro quel fienile venivano tenuti alcuni zombie, perché il proprietario, Hershel Greene, riteneva che un metodo di cura per la loro situazione fosse ancora possibile. Rick è costretto ad abbattere una Sophia ormai zombificata e, dopo questi eventi, Daryl si allontana quasi completamente dal gruppo, persino dalla stessa Carol (madre di Sophia) alla quale lui era molto legato. Quando Dale viene ferito mortalmente da un errante, Daryl si vede inoltre costretto a porre fine alle sue sofferenze, anche a causa dell'esitazione mostrata da Rick nel dargli il colpo di grazia. Dopo questo episodio vi è un graduale avvicinamento al resto del gruppo e, nel finale di stagione, Daryl salva Carol dall'attacco degli erranti alla fattoria di Hershel; si schiera infine dalla parte di Rick quando invece, dopo la fuga dalla fattoria, il gruppo gli si rivolta contro per essersi ritrovati in quella situazione.

Terza stagione
Dopo l'intero inverno trascorso insieme, Daryl diventa a tutti gli effetti il braccio destro di Rick, insieme al quale scopre dell'esistenza della prigione e aiuta a conquistarla eliminando gran parte degli erranti che la infestavano. Daryl subisce una crescita di maturazione davvero impressionante, in quanto si sostituisce spesso a Rick come leader del gruppo mentre lo sceriffo è in preda alla disperazione per aver perso la moglie Lori, tanto da riuscire nel ritrovare Carol nei meandri più bui della prigione, dopo che questa era stata data ormai per morta in seguito all'attacco di un'orda di erranti.

Durante la missione di salvataggio di Glenn e Maggie, prigionieri a Woodbury, Daryl viene catturato dagli uomini di Philip Blake, il Governatore di Woodbury, e posto di fronte a suo fratello Merle, divenuto anche lui uno dei suoi tirapiedi dopo essere scappato da Atlanta tagliandosi una mano. Soltanto l'intervento del gruppo di Rick salverà i due fratelli Dixon da morte certa, ma quando gli viene fatto presente che Merle (ritenuto un traditore dalla gente di Woodbury) non sarebbe stato accolto con loro alla prigione, Daryl decide di restare con il fratello e di abbandonare il gruppo.
Decisione che Daryl cambierà di lì a poco, conscio del fatto che ormai la sua casa era con Rick e gli altri. Merle e Daryl fanno il loro ritorno durante l'attacco del Governatore alla prigione, salvando Rick, il quale era rimasto senza munizioni e messo alle strette dagli erranti. Da lì in avanti, Daryl farà di tutto per far accettare suo fratello Merle dagli altri membri della prigione, cosa non facile in quanto era stato lo stesso Merle, come tirapiedi del Governatore in precedenza, a catturare Glenn e Maggie e portarli a Woodbury come ostaggi.

Quando viene informato del piano di Rick per consegnare Michonne al Governatore in cambio di una tregua, rimane contrariato, ribadendo di voler cercare un altro modo. Merle però decide di portare da solo Michonne a Woodbury, dopo aver capito che Rick e il fratello non l'avrebbero mai fatto davvero, e Daryl si lancia al suo inseguimento. Sulla strada incontra Michonne, liberata da Merle in quanto quest'ultimo aveva deciso alla fine di uccidere il Governatore per conto suo, e la spadaccina lo informa della decisione che il fratello aveva preso. Daryl si precipita sul luogo indicatogli, trovandosi di fronte agli innumerevoli corpi degli uomini del Governatore che Merle era riuscito ad uccidere; tra i molti erranti a divorare i cadaveri, Daryl trova anche Merle, ucciso per mano del Governatore e risvegliatosi come zombie. Distrutto dal dolore, Daryl si ritrova costretto ad abbattere il fratello, perdendolo di nuovo, ma questa volta definitivamente. Aiuterà successivamente Rick e il resto del gruppo durante l'imboscata all'esercito del Governatore per vendicare Merle, e sarà lui, insieme allo stesso Rick e Michonne, a trovare Andrea nella sala delle torture di Philip, morsa alla spalla e ormai condannata. Infine, dà una mano per il trasporto dei civili di Woodbury alla prigione, per salvarli dalla furia del Governatore dopo il tentativo fallito nell'eliminare il gruppo di Rick durante l'ultimo assalto.

Quarta stagione
All'inizio della quarta stagione, Daryl è ormai un membro importante della comunità formatasi all'interno della prigione, ed è, in effetti, la figura di riferimento per tutti, dal momento che Rick ha "abbandonato le armi" per dedicarsi a mansioni quali coltivare la terra e allevare il bestiame.

Daryl va a caccia, portando prelibatezze come carne di cervo alla comunità, e - in un periodo tra la fine della terza e l'inizio della quarta serie - ha portato molte persone alla prigione. Nell'episodio pilota della quarta serie, Daryl si reca in un giro di routine per cercare rifornimenti, assieme a lui ci sono Glenn, Bob, Michonne - appena tornata alla prigione (la donna è ancora alla ricerca del Governatore) - Tyreese e sua sorella Sasha, e Zack (nuovo fidanzato di Beth), il quale ha iniziato una sorta di scommessa con Daryl, per riuscire ad indovinare - senza mai riuscirci - che cosa faceva Daryl prima della "fine del mondo". Purtroppo durante il raid Zack perde la vita, ed è proprio Daryl a dover informare Beth, la quale dapprima rimane impassibile, e si limita a riazzerare una sorta di calendario che segnava i giorni trascorsi senza subire perdite (il calendario segnava 30 giorni, come il titolo in lingua originale dell'episodio).

Quando un'epidemia scoppia all'interno della prigione, Daryl deve di nuovo partire alla ricerca di antibiotici e medicinali vari (cosa che fa senza esitazione), lì viene a conoscenza del problema con l'alchool di Bob, che quasi mette in pericolo la sua vita per recuperare una bottiglia di vino. Nonostante questo, Daryl è disposto a lasciar correre, intimando però a Bob di non toccarne neanche un goccio fino a dopo la fine della crisi.

Superato anche questo ostacolo, Daryl scopre che in sua assenza Rick ha esiliato Carol dalla prigione, per aver ucciso e bruciato i corpi di Karen (la donna amata da Tyreese) e David, entrambi ammalati, senza mostrare alcun rimorso. Sebbene sia furioso, Daryl accetta di accompagnare Rick per dare a Tyreese la notizia, ma in quel momento il Governatore attacca la prigione con la sua nuova comunità riformata; mentre il Governatore discute con Rick i termini per la resa della prigione, Daryl riesce a passare delle armi a tutto il gruppo della prigione senza essere visto; quando il Governatore, infine, decapita Hershel a sangue freddo scoppia un conflitto a fuoco vero e proprio, nel quale Daryl riesce a difendersi da orde di vaganti (attirati dagli spari) e dagli uomini del governatore, distruggendo addirittura un Carro Armato. Nonostante la sconfitta del Governatore (e la sua morte), la prigione è ormai perduta, il gruppo è disperso e Daryl, come gli altri, abbandona la sua "casa" riuscendo a portare Beth con sé.

Dopo questo episodio, Daryl sembra aver perso ogni speranza, si è nuovamente chiuso in se stesso, e a malapena parla con Beth, nonostante si prenda comunque cura di lei e la assecondi anche quando la ragazza ha richieste eccessivamente infantili, come voler trovare dell'alchool e ubriacarsi. Proprio durante questa ricerca, Daryl porta Beth in un vecchio capanno dove lui e Michonne avevano trovato del Whiskey "di contrabbando" (Moonshine), lì iniziano a bere e a giocare a "questo non l'ho mai fatto"; le domande di Beth però ben presto irritano Daryl il quale litiga con la ragazza, rinfacciandole tutte le cose stupide che ha fatto da quando si sono incontrati alla fattoria. Nella lite, però, Daryl confessa di sentirsi responsabile per la morte di Hershel, in quanto lui stesso ha dissuaso Michonne dal cercare il governatore e ucciderlo prima che questi potesse riorganizzarsi.

Dopo la sfuriata, i due si riappacificano, Daryl racconta del suo passato a Beth e spiega che il motivo per cui Zack non riuscisse mai ad indovinare chi e cose fosse Daryl prima, è perché di fatto Daryl non faceva nulla, se non bighellonare con suo fratello Merle buttando via i suoi giorni. Alla fine i due decidono di bruciare quel capanno (che ricordava quello in cui Daryl è cresciuto con il padre alcolizzato e violento), simbolicamente per chiudere definitivamente con quella parte della sua vita e ricominciare.

A un certo punto, Beth viene rapita da una misteriosa auto nera recante delle croci; Daryl la segue per un po' ma poi ne perde le tracce, e finisce per aggregarsi ad un gruppo di sopravvissuti capeggiati da un uomo di nome Joe. Il gruppo di Joe è alla ricerca di alcune persone che hanno ucciso uno di loro, per fare vendetta. Queste persone altri non sono che Rick, Carl e Michonne. Daryl chiede a Joe di risparmarli, assicurando che sono brave persone, ma Joe non ne vuole sapere e ordina a due dei suoi di uccidere Daryl.

Alla fine Daryl riesce a sopraffarli, mentre Rick e Michonne uccidono Joe e il resto della banda. Una volta riunitosi con Rick e gli altri, i quattro viaggiano seguendo dei binari verso Terminus (il capolinea dei treni), seguendo alcuni segnali che parlano di un rifugio sicuro dall'infezione. Ben presto però si renderanno conto che era solo un'esca per attirare viaggiatori in trappola, e dopo una rocambolesca fuga il gruppo viene fatto prigioniero e rinchiuso in un vagone abbandonato, dove si riuniscono con Maggie, Glenn, Sasha e Bob, che sono stati catturati assieme ad Abraham, Rosita, Eugene e Tara.

Quinta stagione

All'inizio della quinta stagione Daryl racconta a Maggie quello che è successo mentre era con Beth, mentre il gruppo - ancora prigioniero all'interno del vagone - improvvisa delle armi per sopraffarre i loro "carcerieri", ma lo stratagemma si rivela inutile in quanto gli abitanti di Terminus (che si rivelano essere cannibali) utilizzano dei fumogeni per stordirli prima di tirarli fuori. Daryl, assieme a Rick, Bob, Glenn e altri sopravvissuti, detenuti in un altro vagone, vengono portati in un edificio adibito a mo' di mattatoio, dal quale però riescono a fuggire a seguito di una non precisata esplosione (che più tardi si scopre essere stata causata da Carol) che causa panico tra gli abitanti di Terminus.

Approfittando del caos creatosi, il gruppo libera anche gli altri e tutti fuggono via dalla stazione, ormai sopraffatta dai vaganti; finalmente Daryl può riabbracciare Carol, ma nota subito che qualcosa è cambiato nella sua amica. Il gruppo viaggia nuovamente unito e, per un po', fa base in una piccola chiesa di proprietà di Padre Gabriel, fino a che Daryl e Carol trovano l'auto che ha rapito Beth e si lanciano al suo inseguimento. Nonostante ne perdano le tracce, i due riescono a dedurre che la loro base sia nel Grady Memorial Hospital ad Atlanta. Mentre tornano indietro vengono sorpresi da un ragazzo di colore che prende le loro armi e li lascia ad affrontare alcuni vaganti per guadagnare tempo, ma Daryl e Carol riescono comunque a raggiungerlo e, dopo averlo immobilizzato e aver recuperato le loro armi, decidono comunque di risparmiargli la vita. Il ragazzo, di nome Noah, gli conferma che la base di questi uomini in divisa è nell'ospedale e che Beth si trovi lì con loro, mentre Noah è riuscito a fuggire proprio grazie all'aiuto della ragazza.
Mentre attraversano la strada Carol viene investita da una delle loro auto e portata via prima, e che Daryl possa fare altro Noah lo ferma, avvisandolo che gli uomini all'ospedale hanno armi e uomini, per cui Daryl decide di chiedere aiuto a Rick e gli altri.

Daryl, Rick, Sasha e Tyreese, usando proprio Noah come esca, riescono a catturare tre dei poliziotti, che pensano di usare come merce di scambio per riavere Beth e Carol. Nonostante uno dei tre ostaggi venga ucciso dall'ex sceriffo mentre tentava di fuggire, l'agente Dawn (che di fatto è il capo della comunità nell'ospedale) accetta lo scambio, ma proprio quando tutto sembra filare liscio, la richiesta della poliziotta di riavere Noah inalbera Beth che la colpisce con delle forbici, causando la reazione di Dawn che le spara, apparentemente senza volerlo, uccidendola sul colpo.

La prima metà della quinta stagione termina con Daryl, affranto, che spara in testa in Dawn prima di portare in braccio il corpo senza vita di Beth, proprio nel momento in cui Maggie stava arrivando sul posto carica di speranze.

Per onorare la memoria di Beth, il gruppo decide di esaudire il suo ultimo desiderio e accompagnare Noah a casa, ma la città è ormai presa dai non-morti, Tyreese perde la vita e il gruppo, devastato si rimette in marcia con ormai sempre meno speranze; Daryl (assieme a Maggie e Sasha) prende molto male le recenti morti e ricerca sempre di più la solitudine, arrivando anche ad infliggersi lesioni da solo.

Infine il gruppo giunge ad Alexandria, una comunità di sopravvissuti con poca, quasi nessuna, esperienza su come combattere le minacce esterne, i quali hanno espressamente voluto la presenza di Rick e gli altri perché li aiutino a difendersi. Nella nuova comunità Daryl fatica ad ambientarsi, mentre gli altri accettano incarichi di prestigio(Rick e Michonne svolgono una mansione simile a quella di poliziotto, Abraham diventa sovraintendente delle costruzioni, Maggie diventa consigliera di Deanna - la donna a capo di Alexandria) e si adeguano alle regole della comunità, così come alle comodità offerte (elettricità e acqua corrente), Daryl tiene con sé la sua balestra, nonostante il divieto di portare armi dentro le mura, non utilizza la doccia e non mangia il cibo offertogli, ma passa molto tempo fuori le mura, cacciando, e, assieme a Rick e Carol, si organizza per tenere da parte alcune armi personali nel caso le cose ad Alexandria vadano male.

Infine, però, inizia a legare con Aaron e il compagno Erik, i due "reclutatori" di Alexandria, i quali, anche se chiaramente per motivi diversi da Daryl, comprendono la sua sensazione di sentirsi sempre un "Outsider".

Poiché Erik non può uscire per via di una caviglia rotta, Daryl accetta di prendere il suo posto come reclutatore, e, dopo aver ricostruito una motocicletta che i due avevano in garage, su base di una Honda cb 750, parte con Aaron alla ricerca di superstiti da - eventualmente, se ritenuti validi - introdurre ad Alexandria per rafforzare la comunità.

Nel finale di stagione, Daryl e Aaron cadono in una sorta di trappola escogitata da un misterioso gruppo chiamato "I Lupi", ma vengono soccorsi da Morgan Jones, che è alla ricerca di Rick. Daryl e Aaron lo conducono ad Alexandria e i tre arrivano in tempo per assistere all'esecuzione, proprio per mano dell'ex sceriffo, di Pete colpevole di aver ucciso il marito di Deanna.

Sesta stagione
La sesta stagione inizia con il gruppo di sopravvissuti intento a discutere un piano per deviare una gigantesca orda di vaganti, attualmente intrappolata in uno scavo abbandonato, la quale, nel caso si liberasse, si riverserebbe inesorabilmente su Alexandria.
L'orda si libera prima del previsto, obbligando il gruppo ad affrettare il piano, e Daryl, assieme ad Abrahm e Sasha, attira parte dell'orda attraverso un percorso precedentemente creato issando delle rudimentali palizzate ai lati di una strada. Dopo aver allontanato l'orda, i tre vengono attaccati da alcuni uomini armati, e Daryl viene separato da Abrahm e Sasha. Dopo aver nascosto sommariamente la sua moto, Daryl viene colpito alle spalle e stordito da un uomo chiamato semplicemente "D", in compagnia di due donne. Durante la marcia, attraverso una foresta bruciata, Daryl si libera approfittando di una distrazione, e scappa via con le loro cose, tuttavia quando trova un contenitore con dell'insulina, appartenente ad una delle due donne, ritorna sui suoi passi per riconsegnargliela; in quel momento sopraggiunge un altro gruppo che è alla ricerca di D e le due donne (i quali credevano che Daryl fosse con loro), con l'aiuto di Daryl i tre si mettono in salvo, e decidono di fidarsi di lui, rivelandogli che stavano cercando una certa "Patty".

Mentre si fermano a riposare in prossimità di un capanno bruciato, un vagante uccide una delle due donne. Non essendoci più traccia di Patty, Daryl pone ai due superstiti le "tre domande" (un sistema ideato da Rick alla prigione, per decidere se una persona è meritevole o meno di entrare nel gruppo) e, soddisfatto delle risposte, decide di portarli ad Alexandria, tuttavia quando arrivano alla moto, D e la donna, rubano la balestra di Daryl, e la moto stessa, lasciando lì nella foresta con solo poche scorte mediche.

Poco lontano da lì, Daryl trova un furgone porta gasolio, targato PATTY, con il quale si riunisce con Abraham e Sasha che lo stavano aspettando in un edificio, certi che li avrebbe ritrovati, e tornano verso Alexandria.

Lungo la via vengono bloccati da una banda di motociclisti che li obbliga a disarmarsi e gli intima di consegnare tutto ciò che hanno a "Negan". Proprio quando l'uomo alla guida sta per sparare ad Abraham e Sasha, Daryl li fa saltare in aria con un lanciamissili precedentemente recuperato da Abraham; i tre ritornano ad Alexandria in tempo per vedere Rick e gli altri combattere i resti dell'orda di vaganti che, in parte, aveva comunque raggiunto Alexandria; utilizzando il gasolio del furgone e il lanciamissili, creano un'esplosione abbastanza grande da attirare a sé i vaganti, la maggior parte dei quali finiscono finalmente carbonizzati.

Ristabilito l'ordine, Daryl e Rick partono per una missione di rifornimento, durante la quale trovano un furgone pieno di provviste, che però gli viene rubato, con uno stratagemma, da un altro sopravvissuto di nome Paul Rovia, detto Jesus. Dopo un rocambolesco inseguimento che vede il furgone, con tutte le provviste, sprofondare in mezzo ad un lago, Daryl e Rick catturano Jesus e lo portano ad Alexandria. Una volta ripresosi, Jesus spiega di non aver mai avuto intenzioni ostili verso di loro, ma anche lui era in cerca di rifornimenti per la sua comunità, Hilltop. Incuriosito, il gruppo visita Hilltop, una piccola comunità difesa solo da una rudimentale palizzata, e armati di lance e bastoni; Lì incontrano Gregory, il capo della comunità, e propongono di aprire un rapporto commerciale, ma l'uomo sostiene che il gruppo di Alexandria non abbia nulla da offrire. Quando tutto sembra concludersi con un niente di fatto, alcuni scout di Hilltop fanno ritorno, e uno di loro, Ethan, tenta di assassinare Gregory, ma viene fermato da Rick, Daryl e Abraham. Gli altri due che erano con Ethan spiegano che era stato Negan ad aver intimato ad Ethan di uccidere il suo stesso leader, oppure lui avrebbe ucciso Craig, il fratello di Ethan.

Dopo questo episodio, il gruppo di Alexandria "riapre i negoziati", con Daryl stesso che propone di uccidere questo Negan (leader dei "Salvatori", una banda che estorce provviste ai villaggi circostanti) sapendo che presto o tardi sarebbe giunto anche a casa loro.

Dopo essersi fatti indicare la base dei salvatori, Daryl, Rick, Glenn, Michonne, Heat, Abraham, Gabriel, Andy (uno scout di Hilltop) e Jesus organizzano un raid notturno all'accampamento dei Salvatori, utilizzando la testa mozzata di un vagante che somigli approssimativamente a Gregory, come stratagemma per farsi aprire dalle guardie. Una volta dentro il gruppo uccide nel sonno gran parte dei Salvatori, prima di venire individuati; Nella sparatoria che ne segue, il gruppo ha la meglio, e Daryl recupera la sua moto con la quale l'unico Salvatore sopravvissuto stava inutilmente tentando la fuga. Purtroppo durante lo scontro, Carol e Maggie che erano rimaste indietro, vengono rapite e tenute come ostaggio per la liberazione del membro della banda catturato da Rick e gli altri; Daryl e gli altri raggiungono i tre rapitori in tempo per scoprire che Carol e Maggie si erano già liberate da sole. L'uomo che dovevano barattare con le due donne dice di essere lui Negan in persona, e viene giustiziato immediatamente da Rick.

Convinti della disfatta dei Salvatori, e tornati ad Alexandria, Daryl riparte per l'ennesima missione di rifornimento; trattandosi di medicinali, Denise (il medico della comunità) insiste nell'andare con lui, pur non avendo esperienza "sul campo", e chiede a Rosita di seguirli. Sulla via del ritorno, Denise rischia la vita per recuperare una lattina di soda (la preferita di Tara, di cui è innamorata), e viene sonoramente rimproverata da Daryl e Rosita. Denise li rimprovera a sua volta dicendo che il motivo per cui ha insistito per partecipare alla missione con loro, è perché Daryl le ricorda il fratello gemello Dennis, che la faceva sempre sentire al sicuro, e Rosita perché sente che è sola. Proprio in quel momento Denise viene uccisa da una freccia, scagliata proprio dalla balestra che "D" aveva rubato a Daryl; D in persona, il cui vero nome è Dwight, esce dal bosco circostante assieme ad altri membri dei Salvatori, che hanno preso Eugene come ostaggio, ma ignorano la presenza di Abraham nelle vicinanze. Dopo aver rivelato la presenza di Abrahm con lo scopo di distrarli, Eugene morde i testicoli di Dwight costringendolo a mollare la balestra, mentre Daryl uccide uno dei Salvatori con il coltello e prende dal suo cadavere un fucile d'assalto. Nella sparatoria che ne segue, Eugene rimane lievemente ferito, mentre gran parte dei Salvatori vengono uccisi, ma Dwight scappa e Daryl recupera finalmente la sua Balestra.

Dopo aver seppellito Denise, Daryl riparte da solo in moto per cercare e uccidere Dwight una volta per tutte; viene però visto da Glenn, Rosita e Michonne che lo inseguono cercando di dissuaderlo. Daryl però è irremovibile, gli altri decidono allora di aiutarlo e si dividono in due gruppi: Glenn e Michonne vengono però catturati da alcuni Salvatori, e usati come esca per Daryl e Rosita. Dopo avergli teso un'imboscata, Dwight appare alle spalle di Daryl e gli spara.

Ferito, Daryl viene portato, assieme a Glenn, Michonne e Rosita, in un bosco dove sono accampati altri Salvatori, i quali hanno catturato anche Rick, Carl, Maggie, Abraham, Sasha, Aaron e Eugene. Come gli altri, viene fatto inginocchiare davanti a Negan in persona, il quale afferma che da ora in poi il gruppo dovrà lavorare per lui, per tanto non li ucciderà tutti, e per risarcirlo degli uomini uccisi, dovranno dargli la metà di tutto ciò che hanno.

Il leader dei salvatori, infine, ucciderà uno di loro come monito, con la sua "Lucille", una mazza da baseball avvolta di filo spinato.

La sesta stagione termina con la morte di uno di loro, senza però rivelare di chi si tratta.

Settima stagione

Nella prima puntata si scopre che la vittima di Negan è Abraham. Dopo aver eliminato l'uomo, Negan si prende gioco di lui con Rosita, facendo infuriare Daryl, il quale aggredisce l'uomo. Il capo dei Salvatori, non potendo accettare questo affronto, decide di massacrare un secondo componente del gruppo, ossia Glenn. La mattina seguente Daryl viene fatto prigioniero da Negan, dove viene nutrito solo con cibo per cani. Dopo giorni di cella, Daryl approfitta di un Salvatore che non ha chiuso la porta della cella e scappa, con l'intenzione di prendere la sua moto. Verrà subito circondato da dei Salvatori e Negan, che lo pesteranno per aver tentato di scappare. Una volta scortato da Dwight nell'"ufficio" di Negan, lui gli dà due possibilità: La prima è lavorare per lui da "morto"; la seconda è lavorare per lui da vivo, ovvero godere di tutti i privilegi che un Salvatore come Dwight ha; Daryl rifiuta le due offerte e Dwight lo imprigiona, dove Daryl dice a quest'ultimo che non potrà mai essere fedele a Negan, dato che si preoccupa di qualcun altro. Nell'episodio I cuori battono ancora, mentre cerca di scappare, incontra Joey il grasso, che promette di non dire niente a nessuno e prega Daryl di non ucciderlo. Daryl uccide comunque l'uomo e, dal camion, esce Jesus, che lo porta in salvo ad Hilltop da Rick e il gruppo. Dopo la sua fuga, si rifugia al Regno, dove parte alla ricerca di Carol. Una volta trovata, i due si abbracciano e cenano insieme. Annuncia poi a Morgan che il giorno seguente sarebbe tornato ad Hiltop. Durante la visita di Simon, per prelevare il Dott. Carson,  si nasconde assieme a Maggie in uno scantinato e qui è sul punto.di uccidere un salvatore.  I due hanno poi una breve discussione in cui Maggie dice a Daryl che non lo ritiene responsabile per la morte di Glenn e che non deve sentirsi in colpa; dice inoltre che anche lei avrebbe quasi voluto uccidere quel salvatore. Si reca insieme a Rick e gli altri a Oceanside per prelevare le loro armi e tornati ad Alexandria è sul punto di uccidere Dwight (anche incoraggiato da Tara) ma desiste in quanto l'uomo dichiara di voler uccidere Negan. Nel finale di stagione insieme ad Aaron e Rosita innesca degli esplosivi, per far fuori i salvatori, che però sono disinnescati dal gruppo della discarica che li ha traditi. Viene reclamato nuovamente da Negan, che non riesce nel suo intento a causa dell'arrivo di Hiltop e del Regno. Durante lo scontro finale uccide parecchi salvatori.

Ottava stagione
Mentre Rick e gli altri si recano al santuario dai salvatori, Daryl insieme a Morgan abbatte le guardie che si trovavano nei pressi degli avamposti. Conduce la mandria di zombie verso il santuario e dopo aver intrappolato i nemici, si reca insieme a Rick ad un altro degli avamposti, in cui si trovano le armi che altro servono. Daryl inizia a mostrare un lato più freddo e spietato, uccidendo Morales con una freccia (anche se per salvare Rick), senza mostrare alcun rimorso essendo pur stati compagni durante primi giorni dell' "apocalisse". Insieme allo sceriffo, elimina poi i salvatori rimanenti, allertati proprio da Morales. Abbatterá inoltre Todd, nonostante quest'ultimo si fosse arreso e avesse rivelato loro che le armi sono all' avamposto di Gavin. Durante un inseguimento uccide un compagno di Yago, che poi verrá abbattuto da Rick, ed ntrano così in possesso delle armi, tra cui diversi esplosivi che Daryl vorrebbe usare subito per far esplodere il santurario.
Litiga quindi con Rick, che è preoccupato per questo suo cambiamento, e i due arrivano anche alle mani, ma nella lite l'auto esplode a causa di una perdita di benzina e i due si riappacificano. Rick si dirige poi dagli scavarifiuti, mentre lui si reca al santuario con Tara. Lungo la strada incontrano Rosita e Michonne che avrebbero voluto vedere il santuario. Qui Daryl uccide una salvatrice che era in procinto di portare uno stereo al santuario, così da allontanare i vaganti. Aiutato da Tara e Morgan, insieme schiantano un furgone verso il santuario facendo entrare i vaganti.

Nel mid-season seguirá il piano di Carl e abbatterá alcuni salvatori per strada, aiutato da Tara, Michonne e Rosita. Qui si riunirá a loro Dwight che è stato scoperto da Laura e non può tornare dai salvatori. Nonostante tutto, Daryl lo accoglie con loro nelle fogne, dove si rifugiano dopo che Alexandria viene assediata. Calmate le acque, ringrazia Carl (che è stato morso da un vagante e sta per morire) dicendogli che è merito suo se sono tutti vivi.

In seguito conduce il gruppo ad Hiltop ed ha una discussione con Tara per aver dubitato di Dwight che li ha salvati evitando che fossero scoperti nel bosco dagli uomini di Negan. Combatterà egregiamente durante la battaglia ad Hiltop. Poi insieme a Rosita catturerá Eugene, per togliere ai salvatori il loro fabbricante di proiettili e per servirsi delle sue abilitá. Tuttavia l'uomo riuscirá a fuggire vomitamdo addosso a Rosita.

Nell'ultima puntata della stagione, al termine della guerra con Negan, Daryl conduce Dwight in un bosco, inizialmente con l'intenzione di ucciderlo, ma vedendo il sincero pentimento dell'uomo decide di lasciarlo andare, a patto che non ritorni mai più, e gli concede persino un veicolo, per andare a cercare Sherry. Nell'ultima scena, lui, Maggie e Jesus discutono l'avvenuto, concordando sul fatto che Rick abbia sbagliato a risparmiare Negan, e decidono che - a tempo debito - avrebbero mostrato a Rick i suoi errori.

Nona stagione
18 mesi dopo la fine della guerra contro i salvatori, Daryl è stato messo a capo di quest'ultimi. Tuttavia nonostante sia stato capace di mettere in riga gli ex uomini di Negan, Daryl non vuole più esserne a capo anche a causa dei ricordi di quando fu imprigionato al Santuario. Inoltre essendo quel luogo una fabbrica, le coltivazioni finiscono per marcire e alcuni salvatori iniziano pian piano a ribellarsi. Daryl esprime a Rick il suo desiderio di andarsene a Hilltop per controllare Maggie e il piccolo Hershel, ma in realtà è una scusa per non voler tornare ad Alexandria visto che vi è imprigionato Negan. Carol deciderà di assecondare Daryl assumendosi il ruolo da leader al posto suo. Per volere di Maggie, Daryl impiccherà Gregory a causa del suo tentato omicidio nei confronti della donna. Dopo che l'alleanza tra le comunità si spezza a causa degli scontri tra Oceanside e i salvatori, Daryl inizierà ad appoggiare Maggie e le donne di Oceanside per eliminare Negan e i salvatori andando infine a scontrarsi con Rick con cui però si riappacifica quasi subito. Tuttavia lo sceriffo viene coinvolto in un incidente al ponte che doveva collegare le comunità e che a causa di una mandria di zombie è stato costretto a farlo saltare. Avendo dato Rick per morto, poiché il corpo non fu mai stato ritrovato, Daryl decide di isolarsi nei boschi dove trova e addestra un cane. Carol lo incontra diversi anni dopo e insieme a lui ed Henry si recano ad Hilltop. Qui viene mandato subito in missione per cercare Eugene, rimasto indietro e ferito per sfuggire ad una strana orda di zombie parlanti. Nella missione Jesus perde la vita e Daryl scopre che gli zombie parlanti sono solo sopravvissuti travestiti. Durante il ritorno a Hilltop, Daryl e il gruppo catturano Lydia, una ragazzina del gruppo di sopravvissuti che hanno ucciso Jesus e la portano alla colonia per interrogarla circa le azioni dei suoi compagni.

Abilità e equipaggiamento
Essendo cresciuto quasi completamente da solo, Daryl è un esperto in sopravvivenza e presenta anche ottime abilità come segugio, cacciatore e tiratore.

La sua arma preferita è la balestra: nelle prime due stagioni e nella prima metà della terza utilizza una Horton Scout HD 125, mentre nella terza serie Michonne recupera una Bowtech Stryker Strykezone 380 dalla casa di Morgan che Daryl utilizzerà di lì in poi. Sporadicamente utilizza anche armi da fuoco quali pistole, fucili a pompa, fucili d'assalto AKM e RPG.

Nelle prime stagioni é inoltre discretamente abile nel combattimento corpo a corpo,seppur non ai livelli di Rick Grimes, utilizzando uno stile selvaggio e aggressivo
spesso con l'uso di coltelli e ha dato prova di conoscere alcune leve articolari. Col proseguire della serie affina maggiormente tali abilità, tanto da affrontare Rick tenendogli testa ben due volte ma anche personaggi molto più forti e letali, come il sussuratore Beta.

This is a translation of 52 open vensters, a collection of sermons based on the Heidelberg Catechism. The translation was done by the late Ralph Winkel of Edmonton, Alberta. In a note at the beginning, the translator acknowledged that his work tended to the wooden and stilted side. The typewritten manuscript (graciously scanned and provided by Burt Winkel, Hamilton, ON) also has many typos. Nevertheless, it does provide a fairly accurate representation of the original work of Dr. Bremmer. I've often used Bremmer's book in Dutch and have found it helpful.


How do you design a library?
Go behind the mind of the architect in this episode of COOL SPACES as architect and teacher Stephen Chung presents how the most innovative libraries were designed, featuring the spaces of James B. Hunt Jr. Library (Raleigh, NC), South Mountain Community Library (Phoenix, AZ), and Seattle Central Library (Seattle, WA).


The Local Government Commission has received a proposal for the transfer of responsibility for the Hauraki Gulf Islands (except for Rangitoto Island and Browns Island) from Auckland City Council and Auckland Region to Thames-Coromandel District and Waikato Region.
The proposal was initiated by a petition signed by over 700 electors living within the area. In November 2008, the Auckland City Council, Thames-Coromandel District Council, Auckland Regional Council and Waikato Regional Council decided that the proposal should be referred to the Commission for consideration and decision rather than being dealt with by the Councils.
Following the appointment of a representative, the Commission will call for public submissions. Members of the public will have 60 days in which to make a submission. The Commission will also consult with the affected and adjoining local authorities, relevant government agencies, and iwi.
Further information on the process may be found on the Commission's website by clicking the 'Guidelines' button.


Nabbing a starring role with Pikachu is no easy feat, but that's just what Eevee did in the upcoming pair of Pokemon: Let's Go games. According to director Junichi Masuda by way of a recent Nintendo Minute presentation, it was a no-brainer.
Masuda goes all the way back to Pokemon Yellow, explaining that because your rival uses Eevee, he wanted it featured. But the reasoning didn't stop there, as he also noted how the fans really took to the character over time and he received years of fan art and comments asking to prop it up. With two decades of history behind it and years of fan-demand, Eevee was propelled into the coveted second spot.
All of the Eevee-lutions, which cater to pretty much every aesthetic on the planet from edgy to cute, definitely helped cement its spot in Pokemon history.


Amanda, from Phoenix, Arizona had contacted us after she adopted Zoey, her heeler mix from the shelter. Zoey had all the "normal" bad behaviors like jumping, barking and pulling on the leash, but she also had some serious concerns with biting. Amanda couldn't even get close to touch Zoey's rear end and tail without her thrashing and biting down with pressure. She would also use her paws to claw at Amanda and anyone who touched her. Amanda was nervous around Zoey when this happened and felt uncomfortable doing even the simplest of things like clipping her nails and brushing her. She was looking for a trainer that could help her not only with general training, but with getting Zoey comfortable being touched and handled and that's when she found Kona's Dog Training.
Amanda signed Zoey up for our Unlimited Dog Training Program so she could practice the touching techniques I showed her slowly and comfortably. She made tremendous progress in only the first week to the point that she was able to get Zoey to calm down while Amanda pet her down to the tip of her tail. Amanda can now grab each paw and is slowly able to clip each toenail. She can get near Zoey's rear end and even clean it when dirty. Zoey is also doing great with walking on a leash and listening well inside the home. Zoey and Amanda are growing their trust in each other every single day.
