"Glover performed in many plays, TV shows and movies,
including portraying Duffy in the 1974 drama "Chinatown,”
the villain Mr. Wint in the 1971 James Bond movie
“Diamonds Are Forever” and Feldman in the 2001 drama
“Ghost World.”
Better Duffy and Walsh than Wint and Kidd.

You lift into the air."

"And the pink pony goes up and down"
— Adapted "Circle Game" song lyric
And now … the cringe version!
That title was suggested by an artist wielding her art like a shield
in this morning's post "Art Process," and by the four squares and
four diamonds of yesterday's post "A Combinatorial Configuration."

From "Self-Dual Configurations and Regular Graphs" by H. S. M. Coxeter,
Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, Vol. 56 (1950), pp. 413-455
For a related combinatorial configuration, take Oxbury's "16 lines"
to be the the 16 dots above and take the "8 points of intersection"
to be the four squares
234, 1234, 124, 24
23, 123, 12, 2
3, 13, 1, 0
34, 134, 14, 4
along with the four diamonds
234, 23, 3, 34
1234, 123, 13, 134
124, 12, 1, 14
24, 2, 0, 4.
Then each "line" is on two "points" and each "point" on
four "lines."
Note that these eight "points" — the four squares and the four diamonds
of Coxeter's figure — form the rows and columns of the following matrix:
| 234 | 1234 | 124 | 24 |
| 23 | 123 | 12 | 2 |
| 3 | 13 | 1 | 0 |
| 34 | 134 | 14 | 4 |
