Claves Regni Caelorum
Or: Night of Lunacy
From 9 PM Monday —
Note that the last line, together with the page number, forms
a sort of key—
The rest of the story—
For one reinterpretation of the page number 304, see a link—
Sermon— from Tuesday's post Diamond Speech.
The linked-to sermon itself has a link, based on a rereading
of 304 as 3/04, to a post of March 4, 2004, with…
WW and ZZ
as rendered by figures from the Kaleidoscope Puzzle—
.
Yesterday morning the same letter-combinations occurred
in a presentation at CERN of a newly discovered particle—
(Click for context.)
Since the particle under discussion may turn out to be the
God particle, it seems fitting to interpret WW and ZZ as part
of an imagined requiem High Mass.
Ron Howard, director of a film about CERN and the God particle,
may regard this imaginary Mass as performed for the late
Andy Griffith, who played Howard's father in a television series.
Others may prefer to regard the imaginary Mass as performed
for the late John E. Brooks, S. J., who served as president of
The College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, Mass., for 24 years.
Griffith died Tuesday. Brooks died Monday.
For some background on the Holy Cross, see posts of
Sept. 14 (Holy Cross Day) and Sept. 15, 2010—

IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED …
By JULIE RAWE
"Nervous kids and obscure words are not the stuff of big-time TV, but this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee was an improbable nail-biter. One of the 13 finalists got reinstated after judges made a spelling error, a Canadian came in second–who knew foreign kids could compete?–and KATHARINE CLOSE, 13, prevailed in her fifth year. The eighth-grader from Spring Lake, N.J., won with ursprache. It means protolanguage. Now try to use it in conversation."
John T. Lysaker (pdf)

Heaven and Earth in Heidegger
Cuando imaginamos algo en la tierra, este algo también se encuentra bajo el cielo, ante los divinos y junto a los mortales. Esta unidad de ellos designamos la Cuaternidad….
…Heiddeger nos presenta un ejemplo para aplicar la reflexión: un puente….
El puente coliga según su manera cabe sí tierra y cielo, los divinos y los mortales; es una cosa y lo es en tanto que la coligación de la Cuaternidad que hemos caracterizado antes. El puente coliga la Cuaternidad de tal modo que hace sitio a una plaza. Pero sólo aquello que en sí mismo es un lugar puede abrir espacio a una plaza. Antes del puente, hay muchos sitios que pueden ser ocupados por algo. De entre ellos uno se da como un lugar, y esto ocurre por la propia presencia del puente. Luego, el lugar se da por el puente. El puente es una cosa, coliga la Cuaternidad, pero coliga en el modo de otorgar (hacer sitio a) a la Cuaternidad una plaza.
