from previous note “12.13.2014 details” …:
“The Buddha teaches that all conformations are transient, that all conformations are subject to sorrow, that all conformations are lacking a self. How then can there be Nirvana, a state of eternal bliss?”‘

And the Blessed One, this connection, on that occasion, breathed forth this solemn utterance: “There is, O monks, a state where there is neither earth, nor water, nor heat, nor air; neither infinity of space nor infinity of consciousness, nor nothingness, nor perception nor non-perception; neither this world nor that world, neither sun nor moon. It is the uncreate. That O monks, I term neither coming nor going nor standing; neither death nor birth. It is without stability [sic: ?instability?], without change; it is the eternal which never originates and never passes away. There is the end of sorrow.

“It is hard to realize the essential, the truth is not easily perceived; desire is mastered by him who knows, and to him who sees aright all things are naught. There is, O monks, an unborn, unoriginated, uncreated, unformed. Were there not, O monks, this unborn, unoriginated, uncreated, unformed, there would be no escape from the world of the born, originated, created, formed. Since, O monks, there is an unborn, unoriginated, uncreated and unformed, therefore is there an escape from the born, originated, created, formed.”

in previous notes it is suggested that this nibbana formless crutchless thing is sort of a mathematical “average” [note “nyquist revisited”: “average” ~ “mathematical limit”] of real things that might or might not coincide with a real thing [for example, the “average” of 1 and 2 and 3 is (1 + 2 + 3) / 3 = 2 so that “2” is the “average” that happens to coincide with one of the “2” that goes in the sum to find the “average” … in this case mathematical “limit” of some series/sequence happens to exist …

anyway, the Noble Truths say that (1) suffering exists such as Ecclesiastes or Book of Job sufferings (2) wellness exists such as Ecclesiastes conclusion that despite vanities of vanities there is a God who expects goodness or Book of Job God from the cloud reprimanding Job’s friend for wrong “expectations” and remunerating Job for right “expectations”: in other words, the pain/suffering/wrong-expectation is there to steer one toward pleasure/wellness/right-expectation … one is continuously steered via “some are born into it; some earn/learn/achieve/love/will/dream/wish/pray/aim/steer for it; some have it thrust upon” toward “it”, toward the “right” “expectation” … the pain/suffering is like a “wall” whose hardness steers one away from the “wall” … and one learns by trial and error first hand or by pass-down second-hand knowledge from others if one believes in such knowledge where the “walls” are or what the “right” “expectation” is … thus it might or might not convince you the reader [

Nhạc cảnh Chum Vàng cũng giống như nhạc cảnh Thằng Bờm, là một chuyện cổ tích bình dân do tôi phóng tác.

…Có một đôi vợ chồng nghèo, làm nghề nông, suốt đời vất vả, lam lũ. Một hôm, chồng ra ruộng khoai (hay ruộng lúa), đang (cầy sâu hay) cuốc bẫm thì đào được một cái chum. Mở nắp chum ra, thấy chum đựng đầy vàng bạc châu báu. Người chồng bèn đậy nắp chum lại rồi để chum bên bờ ruộng. Về nhà khoe vợ là mình đào được cái chum vàng. Vợ hỏi :
— Của trời cho, sao không khiêng chum vàng về ? Để đó, người ta khiêng đi còn gì ?
Chồng đáp :
— Nếu thật sự là của trời cho, thì tự nhiên chum vàng sẽ về nhà, chẳng đứa nào lấy được !

Đang lúc vợ chồng trò chuyện thì có hai thằng kẻ trộm ngồi rình ở ngoài cửa (hay dưới gầm giường), chúng nó nghe hết cả. Hai thằng chạy ra bờ ruộng thì quả nhiên thấy cái chum nằm đó. Chúng vội vàng khiêng cái chum về nhà và khi mở nắp chum ra thì chẳng thấy vàng bạc đâu cả, chỉ thấy trong chum toàn là rắn, rết ! Chúng sợ quá đem chum giấu ở một nơi.
Sáng hôm sau, người chồng ra ruộng thì thấy mất cái chum. Khi về nhà, vợ hỏi :
— Chum đâu ?
Chồng đáp :
— Trời lấy lại chum vàng rồi !
Hai kẻ trộm lại đã ngồi rình và nghe nói vậy, chúng bực quá, chạy đi khiêng cái chum đặt lại chỗ cũ, cho vợ chồng này sẽ bị rắn cắn.
Hôm sau, chồng ra ruộng lại thấy cái chum, về nhà khoe vợ :
— Trời cho lại cái chum vàng rồi.
Vợ bảo :
–Thế sao không khiêng về ?
Chồng đáp :
— Trời đã cho lại cái chum thì chum sẽ về nhà mình cho mà xem.
Hai thằng kẻ trộm lại cũng ngồi rình và nghe nói vậy, chúng tức quá chạy đi khiêng cái chum đặt ngay trước sân nhà, cho vợ chồng này chết vì rắn cắn. Sáng hôm sau, vừa mở cửa ra sân thấy cái chum vàng nằm chình ình ngay đó, chồng bảo vợ :
— Thấy chưa ? Ta nói có sai đâu ? Trời đã cho thì tự nhiên cái chum vàng sẽ bò về tận nhà mình !

61. THE SNAKE

Grasp the Scriptures aright.
Maj jhima i. 133-134.

“Grasped wrongly,” said the Buddha on a certain occasion, “the Scrip-
tures conduce to hurt and harm.”

It is precisely as if a man, wanting a water-snake, hunting a
water-snake, searching for a water-snake, were to see a big water-
snake and were to grasp it by the body or by the tail, and that
water-snake were to turn on him and were to bite him on the hand
or on the arm or on some other major or minor member of the
body, and as a result of this he were to incur death or mortal pain.
And why .” Because he wrongly grasped the water-snake.

“Precisely so,” said the Buddha, “the Scriptures, wrongly grasped,
conduce to hurt and harm.”

“On the other hand,” said the Buddha, “the Scriptures, rightly
grasped, conduce to weal and welfare.”

It is precisely as if a man, wanting a water-snake, hunting a
water-snake, searching for a water-snake, were to see a big water-
snake, and with a goat’s foot, with a stick, were to hold it down,
were to hold it down firmly; and with the goat’s foot, with the

186 Behold the Fruit of Faith! [Chap. X.

stick, holding it down, holding it down firmly, were to grasp it by
the neck, were to grasp it firmly ; — no matter how much that water-
snake were to wrap its coils about that man’s hand or arm or
other major or minor member of his body, nevertheless, as a re-
sult of that man’s firm grasp, he would incur neither death nor
mortal pain. And why.” Because he rightly grasped the water-
snake.

“Precisely so,” said the Buddha, “the Scriptures, rightly grasped,
conduce to weal and welfare.”

21Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. All that night the LORD pushed back the sea with a strong east wind and turned the sea into dry ground. The water divided, 22and the Israelites went through the middle of the sea on dry ground. The water stood like a wall on their right and on their left. 23The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and cavalry followed them into the sea. 24Just before dawn, the LORD looked down from the column of fire and smoke and threw the Egyptian camp into a panic. 25He made the wheels of their chariots come off so that they could hardly move. Then the Egyptians shouted, “Let’s get out of here! The LORD is fighting for Israel! He’s against us!”

26Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the water will flow back over the Egyptians, their chariots, and their cavalry.” 27Moses stretched his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the water returned to its usual place. The Egyptians tried to escape, but the LORD swept them into the sea. 28The water flowed back and covered Pharaoh’s entire army, as well as the chariots and the cavalry that had followed Israel into the sea. Not one of them survived. 29Meanwhile, the Israelites had gone through the sea on dry ground while the water stood like a wall on their right and on their left.

21 Then Moshe stretched out his yad over the yam; and Hashem caused the yam to go back by a strong east wind all that night, so that the yam was made dry land, and the mayim were divided. 22 And the Bnei Yisroel then went into the middle of the yam upon the yabashah (dry land); and the mayim were a chomah (wall) unto them on their right, and on their left. 23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the middle of the yam, even kol sus Pharaoh, his chariots, and his parash. 24 So it came to pass, that when came the watch of the boker, Hashem looked down on the machaneh Mitzrayim through the ammud eish (pillar of fire) and of the anan, and caused confusion over the machaneh Mitzrayim, 25 And turned awry their chariot wheels, that they drove them with difficulty; so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the presence of Yisroel; because Hashem fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

26 And Hashem said unto Moshe, Stretch out thine yad over the yam, that the mayim may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their parash. 27 And Moshe stretched forth his yad over the yam, and the yam rushed back to its place as dawn of the boker appeared; and the Egyptians tried to flee away from meeting it; but Hashem swept the Egyptians into the middle of the yam. 28 And the mayim rushed back, and covered the chariots, and the parashim, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the yam after them; there remained as survivors not so much as one of them. 29 But the Bnei Yisroel walked upon yabashah through the yam; and the mayim were a chomah unto them on their right, and on their left.
\Tidal range

In general tide ranges between 0.6 m (2.0 ft) in the north, near the mouth of the Gulf of Suez and 0.9 m (3.0 ft) in the south near the Gulf of Aden but it fluctuates between 0.20 m (0.66 ft) and 0.30 m (0.98 ft) away from the nodal point. The central Red Sea (Jeddah area) is therefore almost tideless, and as such the annual water level changes are more significant. Because of the small tidal range the water during high tide inundates the coastal sabkhas as a thin sheet of water up to a few hundred metres rather than inundating the sabkhas through a network of channels. However, south of Jeddah in the Shoiaba area the water from the lagoon may cover the adjoining sabkhas as far as 3 km (2 mi) whereas, north of Jeddah in the Al-kharrar area the sabkhas are covered by a thin sheet of water as far as 2 km (1.2 mi). The prevailing north and northeastern winds influence the movement of water in the coastal inlets to the adjacent sabkhas, especially during storms. Winter mean sea level is 0.5 m (1.6 ft) higher than in summer. Tidal velocities passing through constrictions caused by reefs, sand bars and low islands commonly exceed 1–2 m/s (3–6.5 ft/s). Coral reefs in the Red Sea are near Egypt, Eritrea, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan.
from

Biblical accounts of the Red Sea’s parting are hydrologically plausible, suggest computer simulations of sustained winds in a coastal lagoon where the Nile met the Mediterranean 3,000 years ago.

Under steady 60-mph winds, “the ocean model produces an area of exposed mud flats where the river mouth opens into the lake,” wrote National Center for Atmospheric Research oceanographers Carl Drews and Weiqing Han in an August 30 Public Library of Science One study. “These mud flats represent the area of crossing, and the crossing party would observe water to their left and right.”

In the Book of Exodus, Moses is described as leading Israelite slaves in flight from Egypt, arriving at the Red Sea’s shores just ahead of pursuing armies. At that point, “Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.”

Han and Drews, who hosts a website dedicated to the compatibility of science and Christian faith, don’t consider the Exodus narrative to be literally true, but rather “an interesting and ancient story of uncertain origin.” Others have been similarly intrigued, suggesting that a rare phenomenon called wind setdown could have created dry passage across the Red Sea’s narrow northern tip. A wind setdown is essentially the flip side of a storm surge; when strong, steady winds cause water to rise dramatically in some areas, it necessarily drops in others.

1/1/2014 on the day when san francisco television news reported jim harbough has just landed in ann arbor michigan, the wind was very strong … and subsided immediately soon after … the news weather reporter said “sunshine [but] the wind [was what was causing the cold, so bundle up when you head out to the streets] … very cold …” … : by february around te^’t chinese new year in michigan one could taste spring with the sunshine but the momentum of the cold air mass is such that the cold air lingers until april to beginning of may …

In 1879, theologian Samuel Bartlett proposed a setdown location at a shallow inlet near of Suez, used by Arabs to cross the Red Sea at low tide. More recently, Russian researchers Naum Voltzinger and Alexei Androsov calculated that a 74-mph wind could have exposed an underwater reef near what is now the Suez Canal.

In the new study, Han and Drews determined that the depressions in the reef would have stayed underwater. They propose a different location, 75 miles north of the reef and just south of the Mediterranean, in what is now known as the Kedua Gap. The area is now dry, but historical reconstructions suggest an ancient branch of the Nile once flowed into a lagoon there.

After using satellite measurements and archaeological records to create a model of local hydrogeography, the researchers ran simulations that found 12 hours of 60-mph easterly winds would have exposed a dry passage, 2 miles long and 3 miles wide, out of Egypt.

When the winds stopped blowing, the waters would surge back, appearing in the researchers’ words “as an advancing wall of churning water” — or, per Exodus, “the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.”

“If a crossing actually took place here, any debris field of military artifacts should be found to the north of the gap,” wrote Han and Drews.

Magnum’s tradition of spending the Fourth of July alone at sea turns to a life-and-death battle when his surf ski capsizes from a reckless boater and a strong current takes him further and further from land. Forced to tread water for hours in shark-infested waters, Thomas uses his memories of his mom and dad to keep himself alive while Higgins, T.C., and Rick begin a frantic search for him.

1 This episode is sometimes referred to by fans as the “Treading Water” episode, as Magnum is literally treading water in the ocean for virtually the entire episode. This is one of the few episodes that does not feature any villians, or bad guys.

Mickey Mouse Will Pay For Jim Harbaugh’s $48 Million Michigan Contract

Comment Now Follow Comments

Former San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh is about to take the same position at the University of Michigan. ESPN reported yesterday that Harbaugh will sign a record six-year contract with the Wolverines worth at least $48 million.

Expect the usual outcry from those who think that is too much to spend on a football coach. But the reality is that football is a big moneymaker for Michigan that funds academics and other sports that do not make money. And don’t think for a second that Harbaugh won’t have the funds to sign high-priced assistants or to continue to spend more on scholarships than any team in the country.

The Big Ten Conference’s television deals are coming up for renewal soon, which means Michigan will soon have a lot more money to invest in its football program.

The Big Ten has its own national cable network and also has television contracts with Walt Disney's DIS -0.34% ABC/ESPN, BTN, CBS CBS -0.3% and Fox . Disney, which has first-tier rights, is paying $1 billion for 10 years through the 2016-17 season. The Big 10 Network (51% owned by Fox and 49% owned by the conference), which has second-tier rights, is paying $2.8 billion through 2031-32 (excluding profit distributions). Fox is paying $145 million over six seasons for the Football Championship Game through 2016. And CBS is ponying up $72 million over six years for select basketball telecasts. The math works out to a per-year average of $248 million.

But the deals with Mickey Mouse and CBS, signed soon before television rights fees for sports took off, are cheap by today’s standards.

while he was in residence at Jetavana monastery with reference to a
certain lay disciple possessed of faith.

This Noble Disciple, we are told, possessed of faith and serenity
of mind, set out one day for Jetavana monastery. At eventide he
reached the bank of the river Aciravati, after the boatman had
beached his boat and gone to hear the preaching of the Doctrine.

Not seeing a boat, he had recourse to the Practice of Medita-
tion, concentrated his thoughts on the Buddha, attained the
Ecstasy of Joy, and descended into the river. His feet did not
sink in the water. He walked along as though he were walking on
the surface of the land until he came to mid-stream. Then he saw
waves. Then the Ecstasy of Joy, the result of the concentration
of his thoughts on the Buddha, became weak. Then his feet began
to sink. But he concentrated his thoughts anew on the Buddha,
strengthened the Ecstasy of Joy, walked on the surface of the
water as before, entered Jetavana monastery, bowed to the
Teacher, and sat down on one side.

The Teacher exchanged greetings with him, and asked: “Lay
disciple, I trust that as you came hither, you came hither without
weariness.” “Reverend Sir, I had recourse to the Practice of Medi-
tation, concentrated my thoughts on the Buddha, attained the

Par. 62.] Walking on Water 187

Ecstasy of Joy, obtained support on the surface of the water, and
came hither as though I were treading the earth.”

Said the Teacher: “But, lay disciple, you are not the only one
who has obtained support by meditating on the Merits of the
Buddha. In former times also, lay disciples who were shipwrecked
in mid-ocean meditated on the Merits of the Buddha, and thus
obtained support.”

How Did Moses Part the Red Sea?

Ridley Scott’s “Exodus: Gods and Kings,” which opens in movie theaters across the country Dec. 12, will include, of course, the most famous of all biblical miracles: the parting of the Red Sea. But its depiction will look quite different from the one in Cecil B. DeMille’s 1956 classic “The Ten Commandments.” In the earlier movie, Charlton Heston as Moses parted the sea into two huge walls of water, between which the children of Israel crossed on a temporarily dry seabed to the opposite shore. Pharaoh’s army of chariots chased after them only to be drowned when Moses signaled for the waters to return.

Mr. Scott has said that his new version of the story will have a more realistic and natural explanation of what happened and won’t rely on Moses to bring forth God’s miraculous intervention. He has decided to have the waters “part” as the result of a tsunami caused by an earthquake. Before a tsunami strikes, coastal waters often recede, leaving the seabed dry before the giant wave arrives.

But there are problems with this version of the story, too. The period during which coastal waters draw back before a tsunami usually lasts only 10 or 20 minutes, too little time to get all the children of Israel across the temporarily dry seabed. Also, there would have been no way for Moses to know that the earthquake and tsunami were going to happen, unless God told him. That’s fine, but then the story would retain some element of the miraculous.

There is a much better natural explanation for how a temporary path across the Red Sea could have been revealed. It involves the tide, a natural phenomenon that would have fit nicely into a well-thought-out plan by Moses, because Moses would have been able to predict when it would happen.

In certain places in the world, the tide can leave the sea bottom dry for hours and then come roaring back. In fact, in 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte and a small group of soldiers on horseback were crossing the Gulf of Suez, the northern end of the Red Sea, roughly where Moses and the Israelites are said to have crossed. On a mile-long expanse of dry sea bottom exposed at low water, the tide suddenly rushed in, almost drowning them.

In the biblical account, the children of Israel were camped on the western shore of the Gulf of Suez when the dust clouds raised by Pharaoh’s chariots were seen in the distance. The Israelites were now trapped between Pharaoh’s army and the Red Sea. The dust clouds, however, were probably an important sign for Moses; they would have let him calculate how soon Pharaoh’s army would arrive at the coast.

Moses had lived in the nearby wilderness in his early years, and he knew where caravans crossed the Red Sea at low tide. He knew the night sky and the ancient methods of predicting the tide, based on where the moon was overhead and how full it was. Pharaoh and his advisers, by contrast, lived along the Nile River, which is connected to the almost tideless Mediterranean Sea. They probably had little knowledge of the tides of the Red Sea and how dangerous they could be.

Knowing when low tide would occur, how long the sea bottom would remain dry and when the waters would rush back in, Moses could plan the Israelites’ escape. Choosing a full moon for their flight would have given them a larger tidal range—that is, the low tide would have been much lower and the sea bottom would have stayed dry longer, giving the Israelites more time to cross. The high tide also would have been higher and thus better for submerging Pharaoh’s pursuing army.

Timing would have been crucial. The last of the Israelites had to cross the dry sea bottom just before the tide returned, enticing Pharaoh’s army of chariots onto the exposed sea bottom, where they would drown as the returning tidal waters overwhelmed them. If the chariots were expected to arrive before the tide came back in, Moses might have planned some type of delaying tactic. If the chariots were expected to arrive after the tide came back in, he could have gotten the Israelites across and then, at the next low tide, sent a few of his best people back onto the temporarily dry sea bed to entice Pharaoh’s chariots to chase them.

The Bible mentions a strong east wind that blew all night and pushed back the waters. Ocean physics tells us that wind blowing over a shallow waterway pushes back more water than a wind blowing over a deep waterway. If a wind did by chance fortuitously blow before the Israelites crossed the Red Sea, it would have had more effect at low tide than at any other time, uncovering even more sea bottom.

Such a wind would surely have been assigned to divine intervention, and over the centuries, as the story of the Exodus was retold, that aspect would have overshadowed Moses’ careful planning to take advantage of the low tide. But Moses couldn’t have predicted the suddenly beneficial wind, so he couldn’t have based his plan on it. His timing had to be based on a tide prediction.

When Napoleon and his forces almost drowned in 1798 at the northern end of the Gulf of Suez, the water typically rose 5 or 6 feet at high tide (and up to 9 or 10 feet with the wind blowing in the right direction). But there is evidence that the sea level was higher in Moses’ time. As a result, the Gulf of Suez would have extended farther north and had a larger tidal range. If that was indeed the case, the real story of the Israelites’ crossing wouldn’t have needed much exaggeration to include walls of water crashing down on the pursuing Egyptians.

One more piece of evidence is worth citing. As it turns out, my suggestion that Moses could have planned to cross the Red Sea at low tide isn’t entirely new. The ancient author Eusebius of Caesarea (263–339 A.D.) cites two versions of the story of the crossing of the Red Sea as related by the Hellenistic historian Artapanus (80–40 B.C.). One version, told by the people of Heliopolis, is similar to the account in the Bible. But in the second version, told by the people of Memphis, “Moses, being acquainted with the country, waited for the ebb and took the people across the sea when dry.”

If the tide was indeed involved in Moses’ “parting” of the Red Sea, it has to qualify as the most dramatic and consequential tide prediction in history.

Đây là một lối chơi chữ:
Chữ “bì bạch” theo tiếng Việt là tĩnh từ kép chỉ tượng thanh, nghĩa là âm thanh (tí tách, lạch bạch, đì đùng, v.v); còn nói theo chiết tự Hán ngữ thì không ai dùng. Vì thế cái khó ở đây là phải đối âm, nghĩa, luật bằng trắc, chủ từ, động từ và tính từ tượng thanh.
Bì = da; bạch = trắng kèm theo động từ Vỗ (vỗ nghe bì bạch). Như vậy phải đối thế nào cho chuẩn (có tính từ âm thanh bằng Hán ngữ cho đúng với chủ từ bằng Việt ngữ) để có một câu cho trọn nghĩa?
Mình cũng có một câu họa: GẤU VÀNG ĂN HÙNG HOÀNG nhưng vẫn chưa chuẩn (hùng=gấu, hoàng= vàng) nhưng “hùng hoàng” không phải là tĩnh từ âm thanh mà là một danh từ chỉ tên một vị thuốc đứng làm tĩnh từ. Tiếng kêu của con gấu không phải là âm thanh này.

Bợm đồng ý với bạn Dang, ở đây ta nên để ý đến từ “Vỗ”, như một động từ tạo âm thanh, nên mới nghe tiếng “Bì bạch”, như vậy câu đối sẽ hiểu nôm na là “Tiếng nước vỗ vào da trắng (Tạo nên âm thanh) nghe bì bạch, bì bạch. Khó là ở chỗ đó. Trước đây cũng nghe câu:”Rừng sâu mưa lâm thâm”, “Suốt đỏ khoan thông hồng” hay “Trời xanh màu thiên thanh”…nhưng chưa câu nào chuẩn cả.

Thật ra thì “da trắng” không đồng nghĩa với “bì bạch”. Là do trong tiếng Hán thì tiếng chính đứng sau, ví dụ như “bạch mã” nghĩa là “ngựa trắng”. Vì thế “da trắng” phải là “bạch bì” chứ không phải “bì bạch”.

Bạn đây đố cả nhà. Mà “đố” khác với “hỏi” ở chỗ “đố” là người đó biết câu trả lời. Thế thì dám chắc bạn có đáp án rồi nhỉ ?? Tôi thử đối chơi nhé:

The Bride of Christ or bride, the Lamb’s wife is a term used in reference to a group of related verses in the Bible—in the Gospels, Revelation, the Epistles and related verses in the Old Testament. Sometimes the Bride is implied through calling Jesus a Bridegroom. For over fifteen hundred years the Church was identified as the bride betrothed to Christ. However, there are instances where the interpretation of the usage of bride varies from Church to Church. The majority believe it always refers to the Church.

The Devil is in the detail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Look up devil is in the details in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

The idiom “the devil is in the detail” refers to a catch or mysterious element hidden in the details,[1] and derives from the earlier phrase “God is in the detail” expressing the idea that whatever one does should be done thoroughly; i.e. details are important.[1]

Origin[edit]

The idiom “God is in the detail;” has been attributed to a number of different individuals, most notably to German-born architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969) by The New York Times in Mies’ 1969 obituary; however, it is generally accepted not to have originated with him. The expression also appears to have been a favorite of German art historian Aby Warburg (1866–1929), though Warburg’s biographer, E.M. Gombrich, is likewise uncertain if it originated with Warburg. An earlier form “Le bon Dieu est dans le détail” (the good God is in the detail) is generally attributed to Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880).[1] Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations lists the saying’s author as anonymous.[2] Google Ngram Viewer reveals that the phrase “the devil is in the details” does not appear in print before ca. 1975.

Variants[edit]

Due to common use, the phrase itself has a number of forms: (The / A) Devil (is) in the Detail(s). The original expression of “God is in the detail” most likely had the expression ending with “detail” (without an s), colloquial usage often ends the idiom as “details”; detail, without an s, can be used as both a singular and collective noun.[3]

More recently, the expressions “Governing (is) in the Detail(s)” and “(The) Truth (is) in the Detail(s)” have appeared.[1]

Enfamil (a play on words of ‘infant meal’) is a brand of infant formula made by Mead Johnson. From 1972 through 2011, Mead Johnson used Beatrix Potter’s Peter Rabbit on its U.S. packaging. However, in 2012, the company transitioned to its signature duck across its U.S. Enfamil product line. Enfamil is a product name associated with formulas for babies. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enfamil

“Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” is a popular English lullaby. The lyrics are from an early 19th-century English poem, “The Star” by Jane Taylor. The poem, which is in couplet form, was first published in 1806 in Rhymes for the Nursery, a collection of poems by Taylor and her sister Ann. It is sung to the tune of the French melody “Ah! vous dirais-je, Maman”, which was published in 1761 and later arranged by Mozart [pbs tv showed amadeus when we returned home] for a famous set of variations.[1] The English lyrics have six stanzas, although only the first is widely known. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 7666.

the ear and because of sounds arises the sense of sound; because of

THE THREE CHARACTERISTICS AND THE UNCREATED

WHEN the Buddha was staying at the Veluvana, the bamboo grove at Rajagaha, he addressed the brethren thus: “Whether Buddhas arise, O priests, or whether Buddhas do not arise, it remains a fact and the fixed and necessary constitution of being that all conformations are transitory. This fact a Buddha discovers and masters, and when he has discovered and mastered it, he announces, publishes, proclaims, discloses, minutely explains and makes it clear that all conformations are transitory.

“Whether Buddhas arise, O priests, or whether Buddhas do not arise, it remains a fact and a fixed and necessary constitution of being, that all conformations are suffering. This fact a Buddha discovers and masters, and when he has discovered and mastered it, he announces, publishes, proclaims, discloses, minutely explains and makes it clear that all conformations are suffering.

“Whether Buddhas arise, O priests, or whether Buddhas do not arise, it remains a fact and a fixed and necessary constitution of being, that all conformations are lacking a self. This fact a Buddha discovers and masters, and when he has discovered and mastered it, he announces, teaches, publishes, proclaims, discloses, minutely explains and makes it clear that all conformations are lacking a self.”

And on another occasion the Blessed One dwelt at Savatthi in the Jetavana, the garden of Anathapindika. At that time the Blessed One edified, aroused, quickened and gladdened the monks with a religious discourse on the subject of Nirvana. And these monks grasping the meaning, thinking it out, and accepting with their hearts the whole doctrine, listened attentively. But there was one brother who had some doubt left in his heart. He arose and clasping his hands made the request: “May I be permitted to ask a question?” When permission was granted he spoke as follows:

“The Buddha teaches that all conformations are transient, that all conformations are subject to sorrow, that all conformations are lacking a self. How then can there be Nirvana, a state of eternal bliss?”‘

And the Blessed One, this connection, on that occasion, breathed forth this solemn utterance: “There is, O monks, a state where there is neither earth, nor water, nor heat, nor air; neither infinity of space nor infinity of consciousness, nor nothingness, nor perception nor non-perception; neither this world nor that world, neither sun nor moon. It is the uncreate. That O monks, I term neither coming nor going nor standing; neither death nor birth. It is without stability [sic: ?instability?], without change; it is the eternal which never originates and never passes away. There is the end of sorrow.

“It is hard to realize the essential, the truth is not easily perceived; desire is mastered by him who knows, and to him who sees aright all things are naught. There is, O monks, an unborn, unoriginated, uncreated, unformed. Were there not, O monks, this unborn, unoriginated, uncreated, unformed, there would be no escape from the world of the born, originated, created, formed. Since, O monks, there is an unborn, unoriginated, uncreated and unformed, therefore is there an escape from the born, originated, created, formed.”

The Master said, “At fifteen, I had my mind bent on learning.

“At seventy, I could follow what my heart desired, without transgressing what was right.” analect, part 2
from http://classics.mit.edu/Confucius/analects.1.1.html

– Giai đoạn 1: “Thập hữu ngũ nhi chí vu học” – nghĩa là 15 tuổi thì để hết tâm trí vào việc học; nói cách khác, thiếu thời cần tập trung vào việc tu dưỡng, xác định chí hướng và tích lũy kiến thức.

– Giai đoạn 2: “Tam thập nhi lập” – 30 tuổi lập thân, lập nghiệp – đã trụ vững, có nghề nghiệp, việc làm, có khả năng nuôi sống bản thân và gia đình, đã xác định vị trí của mình trong xã hội.

– Giai đoạn 3: “Tứ thập nhi bất hoặc” – 40 tuổi không còn mê hoặc, đến tuổi này thì đã chín chắn, lịch duyệt; có kiến thức và kinh nghiệm phong phú, nên đối với những việc diễn ra trong xã hội có chính kiến rõ ràng, kiên định, không còn nghi ngờ (bất hoặc).

– Giai đoạn 4: “Ngũ thập nhi tri thiên mệnh” – 50 tuổi thì biết rõ sứ mệnh của mình; đã nắm vững quy luật tự nhiên và xã hội, biết được xu thế của thời cuộc, nên công việc thường thuận lợi và dễ dàng đi đến thành công.

– Giai đoạn 5: “Lục thập nhi nhĩ thuận” – 60 tuổi thì không còn chướng tai gai mắt; do lý giải đúng căn nguyên của mọi việc diễn ra xung quanh và thấu hiểu nhân tình thế thái, nên dễ thông cảm và có thái độ khoan dung hơn – nhìn sự việc không còn thấy chướng tai gai mắt (thuận nhĩ); không như tuổi trẻ hiểu biết còn nông cạn, nên trước nhiều sự việc thường cảm thấy khó chịu, bực mình.

– Giai đoạn 6: “Thất thập nhi tòng tâm sử dục, bất du cửu” – Tới tuổi 70, cổ lai hy thì đạt đến cảnh giới đắc đạo tâm tính và đạo đã hợp nhất, mọi thứ đã thành bản năng nên nghĩ gì hay làm gì cũng đều hợp đạo, chẳng vi phạm phép tắc (bất du cửu = không vượt ra ngoài quy tắc).

Sáu giai đoạn cuộc đời do Khổng Tử đặt ra đã khái quát đầy đủ sự phát triển của con người theo thời gian – trên tất cả phương diện. Có thể nói, đó là một mô hình lý tưởng về sự phát triển đồng bộ – hài hòa – toàn diện của con người cùng với thời gian. Có lẽ chính vì vậy, cho dù hiện tại trong khoa học đã xuất hiện nhiều loại tuổi, mà chúng ta vẫn thích sử dụng đến loại tuổi này.

Thiên là một trong những từ Trung Quốc cổ xưa nhất về vũ trụ và là một khái niệm quan trọng trong thần thoại, triết học và tôn giáo Trung Hoa. Thời nhà Thương (thế kỷ 17-11 TCN) người Trung Quốc gọi vua của mình là thượng đế (上帝) hoặc đế; vào thời nhà Chu, khái niệm thiên (trời) bắt đầu được gắn với các vị vua. Trước thế kỷ 20, thờ cúng trời từng là quốc giáo của Trung Quốc.

Trong Đạo giáo và Nho giáo, thiên thường đi cùng với khái niệm địa (地) (đất). Hai mặt này của vũ trụ học là đại diện cho thuyết nhị nguyên trong Đạo giáo. Chúng được coi là hai trong Tam Giới (三界) của thực thể, với giới ở giữa là nhân (人, người).

Michael Whitlow Biography

Picture

Michael J. Whitlow

Picture

Born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1946, Michael Whitlow now resides in both the Northern California countryside and the Mexican Riviera. Initially headed for a career in business administration, Whitlow was drawn to art when upon graduating from San Jose State University he spent nearly a year touring Europe and some of its greatest museums. The vast wealth of art that he discovered was a revelation to him, being particularly drawn to the realism of the old masters. “I remember feeling moved by the exacting detail and the beautiful interplay of light and dark present in works by the likes of Vermeer, Rembrandt and Rubens” Whitlow stated.

Upon his return to America, the aspiration to paint came suddenly to Whitlow. “I was entering a new phase in my life and felt a deep yearning for more spiritual insight. My desire to paint was awakened during this transformative time and I intuitively knew this is what I wanted to do and could do successfully”. Embarking on a journey of intense research, Whitlow tapped into his artistic talent hitherto unknown to him. Concerning his education and development as an artist, Whitlow declares, “I was totally self-taught and a realist from the beginning. Starting out very traditional in my painting, I developed certain techniques which I later discovered to be similar to those used by old masters. I was like a seventeenth century painter living in the twenty first century and it seemed as though the more understanding I perceived within myself, the more realistic my paintings would become”. In 1971, Whitlow launched his career as an artist.

After 39 years as a professional gallery artist exhibiting in Hawaii, Australia and California, Whitlow has evolved into an award winning artist with numerous Best In Still Life and Best In Show honors. Working in the realist genre, he aims to convey the beauty and tranquility he finds in nature to his audience and is constantly seeking to expand his mastery of painting. Whitlow states, “Painting makes me feel happy and serene. If someone can feel the sense of joy and peacefulness I feel when I paint, then we have communicated something very intimate and beautiful. This touches upon the greatest art of all, the art of our humanness”.

Shiva and Vishnu are regarded as Mahādevas (“great gods” ) due to their central positions in worship and scriptures.[3] These two along with Brahma are considered the Trimurti—the three aspects of the universal supreme God. These three aspects symbolize the entire circle of samsara in Hinduism: Brahma as creator, Vishnu as preserver or protector, and Shiva as destroyer or judge. The Hindu trinity consisted of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, the followers of the last two formed two major sects.

The Tridevi or triplet goddesses of Hinduism have equal importance as the Trimurti and function as their consorts. Brahma is creator, so he needs knowledge or goddess Saraswati (Vaak) to create. Vishnu is preserver, so he needs the goddess of wealth and prosperity, goddess Lakshmi (Shri). Finally, Shiva is destroyer and re-creator, so he needs goddess Parvati, Durga, or Kali for power. They are the various manifestations of Goddess, Shakti.

  Classic Hollywood: Musicals Featuring some of the most iconic images ever recorded on film, these 5 classic Hollywood musicals – The Wizard of Oz, Yankee Doodle Dandy, Singin’ in the Rain, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and Viva Las Vegas – will take you on a journey across the Golden Age of movie musicals, spanning the days from the Great Depression all the way to the Civil Rights Movement.
  With foot-stomping dance numbers, technicolor fantasy worlds, and soaring ballads sung by some of the world’s most beloved stars, these movies still inspire audiences to laugh, love and dream – even when times are tough. But bringing a Hollywood classic to life is never easy. The Wizard of Oz director, Victor Fleming once said, “Obstacles make for a better picture,” and if he’s right, then it’s no wonder these movies became great.
  Discover how these films overcame ballooning budgets, life-threatening injuries, inexperienced actors, dueling egos, and a declaration of war – that literally brought production to a halt – to become some of the most treasured movies in history. These films capitalized on established stars, like James Cagney showing off his song and dance skills as Broadway legend George M. Cohan in Yankee Doodle Dandy; Gene Kelly dancing in the rain at the zenith of his career; and Elvis Presley teaming up with Ann-Margret to set off romantic sparks like the big screen hasn’t seen before or since.
  New stars were born, too: Singin’ in the Rain launched the career of 19-year old newcomer Debbie Reynolds, and The Wizard of Oz took 16-year old Judy Garland down a yellow brick road to the pinnacle of movie stardom. Perhaps most importantly, these films gave the world truly inspiring musical moments: Gene Kelly singin’ and dancin’ in the rain, despite a fever; a barn-raising dance number with 7 times the romance; a theme song for Las Vegas; patriotic tunes that inspired generations of young soldiers marching into war; and one little girl singing – and dreaming – of somewhere over the rainbow. Join Nick Clooney as he takes you on a journey – alongside some of our greatest movie stars – of laughter and inspiration.duration 57:19   STEREO TVG

  dave lowe said he liked the local common people appearing in commercial for kqed: qed is Q.E.D. is an initialism of the Latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum, originating from the Greek analogous hóper édei deîxai (ὅπερ ἔδει δεῖξαι), meaning “which had to be demonstrated”. The phrase is traditionally placed in its abbreviated form at the end of a mathematical proof or philosophical argument when what was specified in the enunciation — and in the setting-out—has been exactly restated as the conclusion of the demonstration.[1] The abbreviation thus signals the completion of the proof. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q.E.D.

In the 1920s and 1930s, jazz musicians said keep on truckin’. You can see an example of it near the end of the 1940s cartoon Dumbo, where one of the crows says “I even saw a vegetable truck,” and all the crows assume the Keep on Truckin’ position.

Lời con đường quê

Tế Hanh

Tôi, con đường quê nhỏ chạy lang thang,
Kéo nỗi buồn không dạo khắp làng.
Đến cuối thôn kia hơi cỏ vướng
Hương đồng quyến rũ hát lên vang.

Từ đấy mình tôi cỏ mọc đầy,
Giọc lòng hoa dại ngát hương lây.
Tôi ôm đám lúa, quanh nương sắn,
Bao cái ao rêu nước đục lầy…

Những buổi mai tươi nắng chói xa
Hồn tôi lóng lánh ánh dương sa,
Những chiều êm ả tôi thư thái
Như kẻ nông phu trở lại nhà.

Tôi đã từng đau với nắng hè:
Da rôi rạn nứt bởi khô se,
Đã từng điêu đứng khi mưa lụt:
Tôi lở, thân tôi rã bốn bề.

San sẻ cùng người nỗi ấm no
Khi mùa màng được, nỗi buồn lo
Khi mùa màng mất, tôi ngây cả
Với những tình quê buổi hẹn hò.

Và thế đời tôi hết cái buồn
Trong làng. Cực khổ đắm say luôn,
Tôi thâu tê tái trong da thịt
Hương đất, hương đồng chẳng ngớt tuôn.

UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE ARE THE GODS WITHOUT

FORM

Abe there, great king, among the gods, gods that are called the
Formless Gods.f” — ^Yes, Reverend Sir, according to sacred lore,
there are, among the gods, gods that are called the Formless Gods.

Now, great king, in the case of these Formless Gods, is it pos-
sible to make clear their form or figure or age or dimensions,
either by an illustration or by a reason or by a cause or by a
method.” — No indeed. Reverend Sir.

Well then. Reverend Sir, there are no Formless Gods !

Reverend Sir, there are Formless Gods ! But it is not possible
to make clear their form or figure or age or dimensions, either
by an illustration or by a reason or by a cause or by a method.

“Great king, just as, although the Formless Gods are beings that
really exist, it is not possible to make clear their form or figure or
age or dimensions, either by an illustration or by a reason or by a cause
or by a method, precisely so, great king, although Nibbana really exists.

Par. 100.] Water 221

it is not possible to make clear its form or figure or age or dimensions,
either by an illustration or by a reason or by a cause or by a method.”

Nibbdna, however, has certain qualities.

“Reverend Nagasena^ granted that Nibbana is unalloyed bliss, and
that it is impossible to make clear its form or figure or age or dimen-
sions, either by an illustration or by a reason or by a cause or by a
method. But, Reverend Sir, has Nibbana any qualities in common with
other things, — something that might serve as an illustration or
example ?”

“In the matter of form, great king, it has not. But in the matter of
qualities, there are some illustrations and examples which might be
employed.”

“Good, Reverend Nagasena ! And that I may receive, even with
reference to the qualities of Nibbana, some little light on a single point,
speak quickly ! Quench the fever in my heart ! Subdue it with the cool,
sweet breezes of your words !”

Great king, Nibbana has one quality in common with the lotus.

Two qualities of water.

Three qualities of medicine.

Four qualities of the great ocean.

Five qualities of food.

Ten qualities of space.

Three qualities of the wishing- jewel.

Three qualities of red-sandalwood.

Three qualities of the cream of ghee.

Nibbana has five qualities in common with a mountain-peak.

99. ONE QUALITY OF THE LOTUS

Just as the lotus is not polluted by water, so also Nibbana is not
polluted by any of the Depravities.

100. TWO QUALITIES OF WATER

Just as water is cool and quenches fever, so also Nibbana is cool
and quenches every one of the Depravities.

But again further, — ^water subdues the thirst of the races of
men and animals when they are tired and weary and thirsty and
overcome with the heat. Precisely so Nibbana subdues the thirst
of Craving for the Pleasures of Sense, of Craving for Existence,
of Craving for Power and Wealth.

222 Qualities of Nibbana [Chap. XI.

101. THREE QUALITIES OF MEDICINE

Just as medicine is the refuge of living beings oppressed by
poison, so also Nibbana is the refuge of living beings oppressed by
the poison of the Depravities.

But again further, — medicine puts an end to bodily ills. Pre-
cisely so Nibbana puts an end to all sufferings.

But again further, — medicine is life. Precisely so Nibbana
is the Life Everlasting.

The Rev. Carlton Lee, Michael Brown Sr.’s pastor, said the last three months have been extremely tough for Brown’s parents. “Right now he still wants peace but at the same time he’s full of pain, full of hurt. You lost your namesake, your namesake was stanched away from you for whatever reason,” Lee said minutes after the family, Rev. Sharpton, their attorneys and a gaggle of supporters held a press conference in which they decried the prosecutor’s handling of the case and denounced the violence in its wake. “It was several slaps in the face to the Brown family … they are still getting slapped in the face.”

NOW With Alex Wagner, 11/25/14, 4:52 PM ET

Eric Holder provides update on Ferguson investigation

Brown Sr. said that he feels his son’s character was assaulted during the months leading up to the grand jury’s decision, and Wilson’s testimony before the grand jury, released as part of an evidence dump following the decision, unfairly vilified his son. “The only person that can really talk for him is me and his mom and at this point you’re right, he can’t defend himself. He’s buried,” Brown Sr. said. “They crucified his character. For people that don’t even know my son … the things that they are saying it’s just terrible. It’s terrible.”

His son was a good guy, a quiet guy, Brown Sr. said.

“The things that’s going on that’s not my son,” he said of the violence. “So in his name I want to keep it on a positive note. I guess those are the issues that I want to keep pushing forward so the world will know that we’re going to stay positive through all of this.

“What A Wonderful World”

I see trees of green,
red roses too.
I see them bloom,
for me and you.
And I think to myself,
what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue,
And clouds of white.
The bright blessed day,
The dark sacred night.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow,
So pretty in the sky.
Are also on the faces,
Of people going by,
I see friends shaking hands.
Saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying,
“I love you”.

I hear babies cry,
I watch them grow,
They’ll learn much more,
Than I’ll ever know.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

Yes, I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

Oh yeah.

[1914]” from http://www.sacred-texts.com/aus/ntna/index.htm; thus, as noted in note “what’s your hunger”, “deep down” the hunger/desire that drives all hungers/desires is the hunger/desire for “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” so that the walls or ca’ch that creates hungers/desires such as clothing, housing, ideology, starships, re-invention/re-surrection/re-incarnation, etc. are in the end mere means and not end which end is “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” … and by cha’nh nie^.m wishing for “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” one could be “contented” an pha^.n with whatever one has and thereby be able to withstood whatever one is exposed to … thus … see previous note on “God is yielding” … pbs documentary sacred journey with bruce feiler in jerusalem woman was about to pass out in the throes of passion in garden of gethesemane on bench with boyfriend when she checks herself while others are using iphone to youtube the western wall wailings “jesus ‘talitha cumi’ ‘little girl arise ta tha cho nha` ngu+o+i’ and ‘let the dead bury the dead we the living must follow me and go on living’ would not have allowed her to pass out thus” … in the midst of the winter cold if one cha’nh nie^.m “yield” to “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” one could come to “accept” and thereby to “withstand” the winter cold much better than if one did not accept the way of nature/god to men if one did not accept cha’nh nie^.m “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long”… of course you might pass away or pass out temporarily while “withstanding” the winter cold thus even if your passing will be infinitely amiable agreeable to you because you have “accepted” things “accepted” “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” though of course the way things work is that before you pass out due to hunger if God is “able” God will will deliver you the heat or the food you need first before allowing you to pass out agreeably for God is “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” … ] including the purpose of stabilizing the woman … at first this might seem contrary to previous note saying that out of the three “some are born into it; some earn/learn/achieve/will/love/aim/desire/pray/wish/dream it; some have it thrust upon” the passive first and last tends to be associated with acts of god leaving only the second active must then tend to be associated with man contrary to “yielding” being passive … yet previous notes also mentioned per dave lowe “she dahlia die^~m thi knows that she can get to where she wants to go merely by aiming for it instead of paying attention to the details of steering the baby walker” thus “the purpose of active steering/driving is passive resignation/yielding” in particular steering/driving/resignation/yielding to the purpose/aim of “you’re ok/well; i’m ok/well” “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” … which is the most “stable” of “stabilities” since even though the parts might change [be unstable or are instabilities] the whole “muo^n loa`i ddu+o+.c bi`nh thu+o+`ng so^’ng la^u; everyone live well and long” does not change [is stable is a stability] …

12/21/2014 co^ be^ and david lowe returned from paris, france to visit us and dave lowe is wearing a stripe shirt … half of a tartan …

u’ ly` and u’ linh tried to dress up sophistatedly while odi and giuseppe tried to dress down in plaid though everyone dressings include cool retro specs and all dressings were crisply civil [u’ ly’ asked what’s the translation of li.ch su+. …] …

anyway the plaids [plaid = what you see is all that there is down below high above and everywhere in between …: the knitting or weave pattern of the cloth is propagated to the level of the design/pattern of the clothing itself

plaid: spirulina structure is propagated to farm level …

] would remind to^nan of previous year’s thanksgiving notes on gummy worm genetic circle/world …

this year thanksgiving would remind to^nan of the “plaid” origin of the idea of that gummy worm genetic circle/world:

crabs at 99 ranch store: ngang nhu+ cua … c.f. ca`ng cua orchid in previous notes …: female is sort of the pendulum wave whereas male is sort of a single pendulum among the pendula that make up the pendulum wave … you sort of have to look sideway like a crab walking sideway to see the pendulum wave which is sort of the fourier transform of the the individual pendula motions … gives new twisty meaning to the bible

and anyway, here are a few of dahlia die^~m thi toys for teething among other things that her grandmother to^nan’s mother bought for her …

since dahlia has another walker this might suggest tham nhu~ng or greed for similarity which is what the tartan or plaid patterns are greed for similarity of all levels … yet the levels are different are unique … because the universe has size/shape instead of a point singularity … so that it’s not really tham nhu~ng … 12/12/2014 window glass truck reminding to^n an that cadilac sts car windshield wiper blade should be replaced as it is not doing its job today a rainy day …. it has been raining practically continuously everyday since thanksgiving with a couple of dry days interspersed yesterday at rate of about 1 inch per hour as judged by a cup left out in the rain … “why you see the smote in your brother’s eyes and not the plank in your own eyes” … anyway, the yoyo contraption buying was the occasion for to^n ddi.nh to went to work perhaps to help out substitute for another sick doctor or some such or else to briefly go to work for a few hours to repair a hernia or some such and was the occasion for boo boo dahlia die^~m thi to cry profusely as though to say to her father that she would rather not have the contraption if only her father could instead stay home …
