ON THIS DAY: In 627 at the Battle of Nineveh, a Byzantine army under Emperor Heraclius defeated Emperor Khosrau II's Persian forces, commanded by General Rhahzadh. In 1858 the Province of Canada releases its First decimal 1¢, 5¢, 10¢ and 20¢ coins; only 421,000 cents, struck at the Royal Mint in England, are ready for circulation. In 1897 Belo Horizonte, the first planned city in Brazil, was founded. In 1901 Guglielmo Marconi received the first transatlantic radio signal (the letter "S" [***] in Morse Code), at Signal Hill in St John's, Newfoundland. In 1925 the first motel, the Motel Inn, opened, in San Luis Obispo, California. In 2012 North Korea successfully launched its first satellite, Kwangmyŏngsŏng-3 Unit 2, using an Unha-3 carrier rocket.
Today is the 5th day of my staycation. It was nice to have a Sunday night that wasn’t taken up by getting ready for the morning. Missed watching Once Upon a Time though – the ballyhooed “winter season finale” was most unsatisfying. What is it with shows taking months off in the middle of the year anyway?

It’s not funny when it is this close to the deadline….
