# Pig in a poke

A pig in a poke is a thing that is bought without first being inspected, and thus of unknown authenticity or quality. The idiom is attested in 1555:
A "poke" is a sack, so the image is of a concealed item being sold.
Starting in the 19th century, this idiom was explained as a confidence trick where a farmer would substitute a cat for a suckling pig when bringing it to market. When the buyer discovered the deception, he was said to "let the cat out of the bag", that is, to learn of something unfortunate prematurely, hence the expression "letting the cat out of the bag", meaning to reveal that which is secret. The French idiom acheter (un) chat en poche and the Dutch een kat in de zak kopen and also the German die Katze im Sack kaufen (all: to buy a cat in a bag) refer to an actual scam of this nature, as do many other European equivalents, while the English expression refers to the appearance of the trick. The English idiom "sold a pup" refers to a similar con. Other variations include "buy a fish in water" (Arabic), "buy a cow on another mountain" (Chinese), "buy in a closed box" (Italian) and "buy a cat instead of a hare" (Iberian languages).
In common law, buyers have the right to inspect goods before purchase.

## Etymology

A poke is a sack or bag, from French poque, which is also the etymon of "pocket", "pouch", and "poach". Poke is still in regional use. Pigs were formerly brought to market for sale in a cloth bag, a poke.

## Use in popular culture

In the April 1929 edition of the literary magazine The London Aphrodite, a story by Rhys Davies, titled "A Pig in a Poke", was published, in which a Welsh coal miner takes a woman from London for his wife and regrets it.
In the 1985 film National Lampoon's European Vacation, the Griswold family wins the vacation on a game show called "Pig in a Poke".

# Hope Island railway station

Hope Island railway station is an under construction railway station on the Gold Coast Line in Queensland, Australia. It will serve the Gold Coast suburbs of Helensvale, Hope Island and Oxenford, and will be located between Coomera and Helensvale stations.

## History

The Gold Coast railway line opened in stages from 1996 - 2009. During its construction, provisions were made for a future station at Hope Island however due to low development in the area, the station was never built. In November 2017, the Queensland Government committed to building three new in-fill stations on the Gold Coast Line as part of the AU$5.4 billion Cross River Rail project – Pimpama, Hope Island and Merrimac. In August 2021, Helensvale North station was renamed Hope Island as the result of community feedback.
It is currently anticipated that approximately 2,800 passengers will use Hope Island station per day when it becomes operational. The station is expected to cost up to $40 million to construct, and is planned to be open by 2024, in time for the commencement of services on the new Cross River Rail line.
The planned location for the station is off Hope Island Road, near Mangrove Jack Park and just south of the Coomera River. The station will be integrated with other modes of public transport, and is planned to feature connections with pedestrian and bicycle paths. The station concept design currently includes space for 174 car park bays.

# Submechanophobia

Submechanophobia (from Latin sub 'under'; and from Ancient Greek μηχανή (mechané) 'machine' and φόβος (phóbos) 'fear') is a fear of submerged human-made objects, either partially or entirely underwater. These objects could be shipwrecks, statues, sea mines, animatronics as seen in theme parks, or old buildings, but also more mundane items such as buoys, chains, and miscellaneous debris.

## Causes

While a fear of water (aquaphobia) or a fear of sharks (galeophobia) are rational fears (hence, "phobia") that can be linked to understandable reasons, submechanophobia can be triggered by harmless objects which cannot reasonably cause harm to the sufferer. Many submechanophobics do not attribute the development of their phobia to any specific experience or traumatic memory—in fact, most claim that their symptoms arose after a lifetime of contact with their triggers. There are several proposed causes of submechanophobia, though none are proven. Submechanophobia could be caused by a fear of the unknown, and the common terror of not knowing what lies beneath the waterline. Objects could be visually distorted by water and its movement, which could make them seem alive, and thus, possibly harmful. However, submechanophobia, by definition, only concerns artificial, human-made creations—not living creatures. A suggested explanation is that the human mind instinctively detects a foreign object in an otherwise natural environment, and this triggers a fight-or-flight response, as humans respond negatively to that which is outside of the norm.

## Criteria

To qualify for a diagnosis of a specific phobia such as submechanophobia, subjects must display several symptoms and fulfill a list of requirements.
* Unreasonable and excessive fear
* Immediate anxiety response
* Avoidance/extreme distress
* Life-limiting
* 6+ month duration of fear
* Not attributable to another disorder

## Symptoms

Many individuals afflicted with submechanophobia exhibit some symptoms in common.
* Severe anxiety associated with the thought of submerged human-made objects
* Muscle tension, body aches
* Breathlessness, sensations of choking
* Increased blood pressure
* Sweating, nausea
* Dizziness, feeling faint
* Inability to concentrate
* Avoidance of locations where contact is likely to be made with triggers

## Treatment

Treatment of a fear of artificial submerged objects generally involves identifying and eliminating the underlying fears. A patient can undergo therapy should they believe that their condition is out of control, and interfering with their everyday life. Treatment plans may include cognitive behavioral therapy, virtual reality therapy, exposure therapy, or a combination of these. A sufferer's needs will be unique to themselves, as well as to the nature of their affliction.
# Artemic Khalatov

Artemic (Artashes) Bagratovich Khalatov (Russian: Артемий Багратович Халатов; 15 (27) April 1894 – 26 September 1937 or 27 October 1938)(sources differ) was a Bolshevik revolutionary and Soviet politician who was the director of the Soviet Union's State Publishing House, from 1927 to 1932. He was executed during the Great Purge.

## Biography

Khalatov was born Artashes Khalatiants in Baku. Although official biographies described him as coming from a working-class background, more recent research has shown that he was born into the family of a wealthy Armenian merchant. He was a student in the Moscow Commercial Institute and joined a Marxist circle while studying. After meeting Anastas Mikoyan he became involved in revolutionary activities.
After the February Revolution of March 1917, Khalatov became deputy chairman of the Moscow City Food Committee. From October 26, 1917 he served as Deputy Extraordinary Commissioner, from the beginning of 1918, as Moscow Extraordinary Commissioner for Food and Transport. During the Civil War of 1917-1923 he was in leading positions in the People's Commissariat of Food and the Main Directorate for the supply of the army. He was sent to Ukraine in order to negotiate with Pavlo Skoropadskyi (Hetman of Ukraine in 1918) for food supplies, but was arrested and then returned to the RSFSR. He became a member of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee and a permanent member of the Moscow City Council.
From to 1928 he was Chairman of the Commission for the Improvement of the Life of Scientists [ru] (Tsentral'naya komissiya po uluchsheniyu byta uchyonikh - TSEKUBU) under the Councils of People's Commissars of the RSFSR and the USSR and resolved issues relating to the supply of scientists. From 1922 he served as a member of the board of the People's Commissariat of Railways, and in 1927, he became a member of the board of the People's Commissariat of Education, chairman of the board of the State Publishing House and of its successor, the OGIZ. He played a significant role in the development of censorship and the ideologization of Soviet literature.
From 1935 to 1937 Khalatov was head of the Central Committee of the All Union Society of Inventors [ru]. He actively participated in the Great Purge of 1936-1938 by publishing defamatory articles about various groups of people who were already the focus of the Soviet state security (NKVD). During this period he wrote and published works on political economy as well. However, his loyalty to the party line did not prevent him from falling victim to the purge. In 1937 Khalatov was expelled from the Communist Party. Arrested in 1938, he was executed on October 27, 1938. Artemic Khalatov was posthumously rehabilitated in 1956.
His body is buried at the Donskoye cemetery in Moscow.
