History Lessons from NCIS: Hawaii

Since NCIS Hawaii is on hiatus until January, I decided to rewatch the first season of NCIS: Hawaii and I noticed that the characters in the TV show talked about pearls from the South China Sea. As someone who is a fashion and jewelry enthusiast, I thought it was interesting that Maggie Shaw (who was Jane’s mentor and friend) gave her daughter (Julie) a necklace of “Wishing Pearls” from the South China Sea.

The region of the South China Sea is known for the pearls. They “are generally much larger than other pearl types and have a unique luster quality – a soft reflection due to the large aragonite platelets that make up the pearl. They also have the thickest average nacre of all cultured pearls. These factors make South Seas both distinctive and valuable.”

One of the most famous pearl distributors is named “Mikimoto”. “Kokichi Mikimoto decided to try culturing pearls that are loved by people all over the world. He was a dreamer, and he did not let his dream die. He became the first in the world to successfully culture a semi-spherical pearl in 1893. He continued his attempt to culture many different types of pearls, including black and white South Sea cultured pearls.”

For the Miss Universe 2007 pageant, Vanessa Lachey hosted the event with Mario Lopez. It was the last time that the winner (Riyo Mori of Japan) would wear the Mikimoto Miss Universe Crown until 2017 where Demi Leigh Tebow of South Africa won. The crown commemorated the fifth anniversary and the official jewel sponsor of the Miss Universe Organization. It is one of the most popular crowns.

New Title Tuesday: Historical Fiction

Deep as the Sky, Red as the Sea by Rita Chang-Eppig

When Shek Yeung sees a Portuguese sailor slay her husband, a feared pirate, she knows she must act swiftly or die. Instead of mourning, Shek Yeung launches a new plan: immediately marrying her husband’s second-in-command, and agreeing to bear him a son and heir, in order to retain power over her half of the fleet.

But as Shek Yeung vies for control over the army she knows she was born to lead, larger threats loom. The Chinese Emperor has charged a brutal, crafty nobleman with ridding the South China Seas of pirates, and the Europeans—tired of losing ships, men, and money to Shek Yeung’s alliance—have new plans for the area. Even worse, Shek Yeung’s cutthroat retributions create problems all their own. As Shek Yeung navigates new motherhood and the crises of leadership, she must decide how long she is willing to fight, and at what price, or risk losing her fleet, her new family, and even her life.

A book of salt and grit, blood and sweat, Deep as the Sky, Red as the Sea is an unmissable portrait of a woman who leads with the courage and ruthlessness of our darkest and most beloved heroes.

The Long March Home by Marcus Brotherton and Tosca Lee

Jimmy Propfield joined the army for two reasons: to get out of Mobile, Alabama, with his best friends Hank and Billy and to forget his high school sweetheart, Claire.

Life in the Philippines seems like paradise--until the morning of December 8, 1941, when news comes from Manila: Imperial Japan has bombed Pearl Harbor. Within hours, the teenage friends are plunged into war as enemy warplanes attack Luzon, beginning a battle for control of the Pacific Theater that will culminate with a last stand on the Bataan Peninsula and end with the largest surrender of American troops in history.

What follows will become known as one of the worst atrocities in modern warfare: the Bataan Death March. With no hope of rescue, the three friends vow to make it back home together. But the ordeal is only the beginning of their nearly four-year fight to survive.

Inspired by true stories, The Long March Home is a gripping coming-of-age tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the power of unrelenting hope.

Loot by Tania James

Abbas is just seventeen years old when his gifts as a woodcarver come to the attention of Tipu Sultan, and he is drawn into service at the palace in order to build a giant tiger automaton for Tipu’s sons, a gift to commemorate their return from British captivity. His fate—and the fate of the wooden tiger he helps create—will mirror the vicissitudes of nations and dynasties ravaged by war across India and Europe.

Working alongside the legendary French clockmaker Lucien du Leze, Abbas hones his craft, learns French, and meets Jehanne, the daughter of a French expatriate. When Du Leze is finally permitted to return home to Rouen, he invites Abbas to come along as his apprentice. But by the time Abbas travels to Europe, Tipu’s palace has been looted by British forces, and the tiger automaton has disappeared. To prove himself, Abbas must retrieve the tiger from an estate in the English countryside, where it is displayed in a collection of plundered art.

The Lost Journals of Sacajewea by Debra Magpie Earling

Among the most memorialized women in American history, Sacajewea served as interpreter and guide for Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery. In this visionary novel, acclaimed Indigenous author Debra Magpie Earling brings this mythologized figure vividly to life, casting unsparing light on the men who brutalized her and re-centering Sacajewea as the arbiter of her own history.

Raised among the Lemhi Shoshone, in this telling the young Sacajewea is bright and bold, growing strong from the hard work of "learning all ways to survive" gathering berries, water, roots, and wood; butchering buffalo, antelope, and deer; catching salmon and snaring rabbits; weaving baskets and listening to the stories of her elders. When her village is raided and her beloved Appe and Bia are killed, Sacajewea is kidnapped and then gambled away to Charbonneau, a French Canadian trapper.

Heavy with grief, Sacajewea learns how to survive at the edge of a strange new world teeming with fur trappers and traders. When Lewis and Clark's expedition party arrives, Sacajewea knows she must cross a vast and brutal terrain with her newborn son, the white man who owns her, and a company of men who wish to conquer and commodify the world she loves.

Written in lyrical, dreamlike prose, The Lost Journals of Sacajewea is an astonishing work of art and a powerful tale of perseverance--the Indigenous woman's story that hasn't been told.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #237a

Brought to you by a marine biologist and the regular bivalves...

CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!

We know what bivalves are by now, right? A soft squishy creature that filter feeds in one spot its whole life (if it were up to the bivalve), protecting itself by growing two shells that are controlled by a muscle working a hinge in the back. It's a simple design. Sometimes, if you're lucky, these animals also produce some of the most beautiful biologically-made materials in the world. So, let's get into it.

______________________________________________________________

Hard Clam

The Hard Clam (Mercenaria mercenaria), also called the Northern Quahog, is friend from my neck of the oceans. Native to the Northeastern shores of North America, this guy has been a staple part of the human diet in this area for centuries - it is the clam in clam chowder here. But the Hard Clam also meant something more to the native populations of this area - inside the hard clam's shell, it grows this beautiful violet pigment. The native tribes called it "wampum" and made beautiful beads out of them. Finding a clam shell with wampum that was thick enough to make these beads was rare, and so very valuable, even to the Europeans that eventually settled here.

______________________________________________________________

Grand Oyster

It pisses me off how long it took me to find out what this was supposed to be (there is no "grand oyster") and then ACPC just did a terrible job adapting it tbh. For all intent and purposes, the icon looks like a clam (granted, our common bivalve names don't really align with specific families or anything, by I digress). Luckily, I found out it is called "shirocho" in the Japanese version, so all I had to do was work backwards and find out what shirocho's English or at least its scientific name, was. But all I kept coming up with were shirocho pearls, which, I expected. Long story short, this is the Silver- or Gold-lipped Oyster (Pinctada maxima), an absolutely massive oyster whose shell can be up to a foot (0.3 m) in diameter. This giant oyster not only makes giant pearls, but it also makes its pearls in silver or gold, called South Sea Pearls. A fine quality South Sea Pearl in gold is worth about as much as I paid for my house. Needless to say, these guys are farmed for pearls. More wholesomely, their pearls are the national gems of The Philippines where it is native and the oyster itself appears on the country's 1,000-peso bill.

And there you have it. Gorgeous, aren't they?

Characterized by lush, palm trees, vast yet breathtaking caves, cerulean beaches, and salty breeze paired with tropical essence, this can only be seen nowhere but in Palawan. Located southwest of the Philippines, Palawan is a long and narrow group of islands near the South China and Sulu seas. It is the largest province in the country in terms of total area of jurisdiction.

THE CROWN’S IN CORON

Not only that, the island also has stunning Palawan beaches, limestone karst landscapes, pure freshwater lakes, and coral reefs in shallow water.

SMITH POINT

A little more relaxed and ideal for family vacations and diving excursions is Smith Point Beach-Coron. Near Banol Beach on the northwest shore of Coron Island, Smith Point Beach is tucked away in a tiny, nearly circular inlet. The beach is fewer than 100 meters long, and the bay's stunning limestone karst structures are scattered across its glistening waters. Smith Point Beach is a fantastic place for swimming and snorkeling since the bay is home to vibrant coral reefs that are home to a vast marine life, including a lot of starfish.

The island is ideal for diving excursions since it is a little more laid-back and has a lot to offer tourists. Lakes, lagoons, and lovely white-sand beaches may be found on the island. You may unwind, and get away from the daily grind in this tropical location. No other Kayangan Lake is one of the top sights on Coron Island hopping trips. Take advantage of the opportunity to visit Coron's tourist attractions, which include island-hopping to multiple beaches and lagoons.

PUERTO PRINCESA

Puerto Princesa is a seaside city on the western Philippine Island of Palawan. The biodiverse Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park serves as a starting point for boat tours into the enormous limestone caves and underground river. Around Puerto Princesa Bay, which is home to long-nosed dolphins, turtles, and rays, are numerous dive spots. The 19th-century Immaculate Concepcion Cathedral is located close to the port.

Subterranean River National Park in Palawan encompasses one of the world's most awe-inspiring cave systems, featuring spectacular limestone karst landscapes, pristine natural beauty, intact old-growth mangroves, and distinctive wildlife.

EL NIDO

El Nido in Palawan houses the most beautiful locations in the world. Obscure lagoons, limestone formations, sandbanks, stunning islands, and pearl-white beaches with blue water are just the tip of what the 7,641 islands in the Philippines have in store for you. The El Nido island hopping tours are the most popular reason to visit this little town, but there is more!

One of the most well-known tropical havens on Palawan Island is El Nido. There are several magnificent white sand beaches and amazing lagoons in this coastal town, which is situated on the northernmost tip of Palawan. Everyone will have the incredible opportunity to see the most breathtaking rock formations and learn about the underwater environment if plan to traverse El Nido. You may chill, enjoy yourself, unwind, and get closer to nature at this covert paradise.

At this moment, you are now prepared to seek a worthwhile experience. Book your flights and fasten your seatbelts as we are about to make memories that will leave prints not just on beaches but most importantly, in our minds. Heal your cravings and claim that peaceful rest, everyone.

USAF is keeping an eye on the MQ-28 Ghost Bat for the NGAD program

Australian Ghost Bat Drone will be able to pair with the U.S. NGAD system.

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 08/28/2022 - 10:36 AM Military

Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall indicated that the U.S. Air Force could incorporate the Australian-made Boeing MQ-28 Ghost Bat drone into the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) family of systems, according to media reports.

Citing China's technological superiority and aggressive acts in the region, Kendall also said that the U.S. may be willing to cooperate with Australia in long-range attack capacity.

"I'm talking to my Australian colleagues in general about the NGAD family of systems and how they can participate," Kendall said about the Ghost Bat drone, formerly called "Loyal Wingman," the first aircraft to be manufactured in Australia in half a century.

The RAAF wants to put the drone into operation in 2024-25. The plan is to unite the MQ-28 with existing manned combat aircraft, such as the F-35A, F/A-18F Super Hornet poaching and EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft, and air combat, reconnaissance and surveillance missions. It could also serve as a 'protective' role for high-value air assets, such as KC-30 tankers and E-7 Wedgetail early warning aircraft.

Kendall told Breaking Defense that the United States and Australia are "having preliminary discussions" about the purchase of the MQ-28 Ghost Bat "as a risk reduction mechanism" for NGAD's drone capacity.

“I think there is a lot of mutual interest in working together. And we will sort out the details in the coming weeks," Kendall said after meeting with the newly appointed head of the Royal Australian Air Force, Robert Chipman, on August 22.

Australia and the United States, along with the United Kingdom, deepened their defense relationship in 2021, when President Joe Biden announced the "AUKUS" partnership to share military technology, starting with nuclear-powered submarines.

In public comments in Canberra, Kendall and Chipman described China's air superiority and aggressive actions, including a dangerous interception of Chinese J-16 fighters that damaged an Australian surveillance P-8 over the South China Sea. During the meeting, the Chinese aircraft released a chaff cargo that entered the engines of the P-8 and damaged its exterior.

“They are as formidable a strategic opponent as I've ever seen. We are in what I consider a race for military technological superiority with the Chinese," Kendall said, according to local media.

Chipman said that China's aggression would not prevent the RAAF from flying over international airspace.

In an interview on June 9, the commander of the U.S. Pacific Air Forces, General Kenneth S. Wilsbach said that the Chinese meeting with the Australian P-8 and a similar meeting with Canadian aircraft were dangerous.

Artistic design of the U.S. NGAD.

"This is not just unprofessional. It is definitely dangerous and unsafe," Wilsbach said at PACAF headquarters at the Pearl Harbor-Hickam Joint Base, Hawaii.

"I ask the Chinese Air Force to intensify and be professional," he added. “Australians and Canadians, as well as the U.S., have been, are and fly in international airspace. They have every right to do so in accordance with international law. And the Chinese do not have the right to damage an aircraft that is operating under international law."

But China doesn't see it that way.

China believes that the airspace over the Taiwan Strait is its sovereign territory, as well as airspace strips over the South and East China seas, where it claims waters in territorial disputes with the Philippines and Vietnam.

Kendall's trip echoes a two-week August trip through Pacific air bases and meetings with allies and partners made by the Chief of Staff of the Air Force Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr. Kendall's visit will not include visits to new partners, but includes stops at U.S. air bases in Guam and Alaska and air bases in Australia and Japan.

Kendall said that the militarization of China in the South China Sea has implications for Australian national security. China has also signed a grassroots agreement with the Solomon Islands, east of Sydney, creating a new strategic dilemma for the U.S. ally.

At a September 2021 "2 + 2 meeting" between U.S. Secretaries of State and Defense and their Australian colleagues in Washington, D.C., Australian Defense Minister Peter Dutton answered a question saying that the U.S. and Australian air forces would have "greater and more frequent engagement".

In July, the B-2s were sent to Royal Australian Air Force Base in Amberley for a bomber task force mission. In Canberra, Kendall signaled that the United States would be willing to cooperate with Australia if it required an indigent long-range attack capability.

"If I saw that you had a requirement for long-range [attack capacity], then we would be willing to talk to [Australia] about it," Kendall said, according to local media. The comments extended to the potential joint development of the long-range B-21 stealth bomber.

"I don't think there is any fundamental limitation in the areas in which we can cooperate," Kendall added.

I'm really, really enjoying the Philippines! The weather could be cooler and less humid but the people are so kind, especially my in-laws, food that meets my level of kashrut is much easier to find than I'd expected, and there are so many cool things to do/see.

We're only staying in one city this trip because the important thing is for my fiancée to be with her family, not for her to show me tourist sites. But we've done a lot of sightseeing here with her family!

I bought some beautiful souvenirs for myself and my friends/family too. My favourite is definitely this beautiful wood chest with mother of pearl inlay. There's a big one in my hotel that I walk by going to my hotel room every day and I admire it every time I go by, so when I saw mini ones (jewelry box sized) at a market I had to get one. I'd love to get a big one someday but they're expensive and getting it to Canada would cost even more!

My fiancée bought me beautiful South Sea pearl earrings which I'm scared to wear because they're so pretty.

Next week we're going to buy some wall art for our apartment. We leave Thursday morning.

This weekend we're going to the beach!!!!!
