Find the English in the Latin – “…et ne quis supergrediatur neque circumveniat in negotio fratrem suum: quoniam vindex est Dominus de his omnibus…” “...and that no man overreach, nor deceive his brother in business; because the Lord is the avenger of all these things…” Ne/neque is no/nor. The first qu word, translated as that, is a conjunction; the second qu word, translated as because, is a subordinating conjunction. Excerpt from today’s Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle to the Thessalonians, 1 Thess., 4, 1-7, 1962 Missal, p 265 The SPLC has spent a lot of time investigating various Catholic groups, including the SSPX, and placing them on their hate group list for giving talks and writing books. As far as I could determine, none of the groups investigated are committing crimes.
I checked their website, entered Catholic in the search box, and found what I was looking for. However, I started scanning, which is what I do when accusations are ludicrous. Most had to do with anti-Semitism. Catholics today are not anti-Semitic. That would be a sin, and anyone can go to a priest for confession, even a non-Catholic, even someone from the SPLC. The SPLC is a 501(c)(3), and I question whether its actions are limited to things southern, or poor, or lawful. Update: Thomas Jurgens, 28, a staff attorney at the SPLC, was among the 23 people arrested for what police called a “coordinated attack”. Following the arrest, Jurgens’ LinkedIn page was deleted. See the 3/7/2023 entry in the Crime Blog. Catholic congressional representative from New Jersey Chris Smith, 70, wrote a bill titled Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act of 2023, sanctioning China for its forced organ harvesting practice. The bill goes to the floor. Smith held a hearing last year in which experts explained that political prisoners, particularly Muslims in concentration camps, have been killed so their organs can be sold on the black market. Estimates are 60,000 to 100,000 harvesting deaths every year.
First Holy Communion Day at an FSSP parish, Nantes, by train 2 hours 42 minutes southwest of Paris, nine girls, eight boys. I spot two saints and one James Dean. First Holy Communion is scheduled at St. Stephen Sacramento (FSSP) for May 6 and 13, two Saturdays in a row, a large group.
The video demonstrates that classical mythology almost prefigures Christianity. Two unknown people seek shelter; Mary and Joseph seek shelter. Hospitality is highly honored; miraculously, the wine does not run out; and marriage lasts until death. There is a flood (Noah) and a kind of ascension. A mansion appears and immortality. However, similarities end there. Zeus, king of Olympian gods, supreme deity, and “Father”, who controlled the weather, offered signs and omens, and dispensed justice guaranteeing order, had a father, Cronus, and a mother, Rhea. Aha! There ends Zeus’ similarity to ours, but the story is good, beautifully illustrated, and told well. The Order of Daedalians is a fraternal and professional order of American military pilots. The namesake of the order is Daedalus who according to Greek mythology was the first person to achieve heavier-than-air flight.

“‘If we got into a major war with China, the United States homeland would be at risk as well with both kinetic attacks and non-kinetic attacks – whether it’s cyberattacks on the power grid or on pipelines,’” said Christine Wormuth, army secretary, during an event at the American Enterprise Institute.
“‘They are going to go after the will of the United States public. They’re going to try to erode support for a conflict,’” she said, according to the Washington Examiner. https://www.patriotnewsalerts.com/army-chief-if-major-war-breaks-out-china-will-attack-u-s-homeland/ Kinetic Cyber refers to a class of cyber-attacks that can cause direct or indirect physical damage, injury, or death solely though the exploitation of vulnerable information systems and processes. Kinetic cyber-attacks are a real and growing threat that is generally being ignored as unrealistic or alarmist. -NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCOE), located in Tallinn, Estonia Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. Applying a force requires us to do work. After work has been done, energy has been transferred to the object, and the object will be moving with a new constant speed. -Kahn Academy, located in Mountain View, CA, USA greta and francis - two stage props The recorded voice can sound thinner and higher pitched. There’s a second reason hearing a recording of your voice can be so disconcerting. It really is a new voice – one that exposes a difference between your self-perception and reality. Not so for Greta and Francis. They love the sound of their own voices, and together they have achieved nothing and made nothing. Echo, by Alexandre Cabanel, 1874; Narcissus, by Caravaggio, 1599
Alexander, nine, and I discussed parallax. I thought that parallax was in a stealth fighter jet, but no. Parallax has to do with our perception of a distant object, such as a jet. Try this. Put your finger in front of you and look at an object. I chose a picture on the wall. I closed my left eye and then my right eye, and the finger moved to the right when I closed my right eye. We said we would teach each other about parallax. using the sexagesimal system, not the decimal system

The tools needed are a protractor, compass, and ruler; a mini drafter is recommended. Alternate meaning of involute - involved or intricate. “From the second chapter to the end, the detective novel grew more and more involute.”
