Heinrich Heine (letters):
Alas, the irony of God weighs heavily upon me. the great Author of the universe, the Aristophanes of heaven, wished to show me –the little, earthly, so-called German Aristophanes– as glaringly as possible what feeble little jests my most bitter sarcasms were in comparison with His own, and how inferior I was to Him in humor and in giant wit.

kepi ; The Singer Building:
Demolition commenced in August 1967 and was completed the following year. At the time, it was the tallest building ever to be destroyed. This record has been surpassed twice since: once when the Avala TV Tower in Serbia was destroyed during a NATO bombing raid in 1999 and again by the September 11, 2001 collapse of the nearby World Trade Center. It is still the tallest building ever peacefully demolished.

James 1:17:
πασα δοσις αγαθη και παν δωρημα τελειον ανωθεν εστιν καταβαινον απο του πατρος των φωτων, παρ’ ω ουκ ενι παραλλαγη η τροπης αποσκιασμα
παραλλαγη -ης, variation, change.τροπη -ης, change, turning, variation. αποσκιασμα -ατος, shadow, darkness
KJV: “Euery good gift, and euery perfect gift is from aboue, and commeth downe from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”
*
[?] all good giving and every perfect gift has descended from above from the father of lights, from whom there is no change, nor any hint of a change.

“When I saw a snake trailing through the grass, and darting out the fire-fork from its mouth, I said to myself, That thing is not human, but I am human. When the lightning flashed, and split some beautiful tree, and left it to rot from all its greenness, I said, That lightning is not human, but I am human. And so with all other things. I cannot speak coherently here; but somehow I felt that all good, harmless men and women were human things, placed at cross-purposes, in a world of snakes and lightnings, in a world of horrible and inscrutable inhumanities.”

63.πᾶς. a. In classical Greek the rule for πᾶς in the singular is that with the article it is collective, without the article it is distributive–
……………..πᾶςα ἡ πόλις = all the city.
……………..πᾶςα πόλις = the whole city.
πᾶς differs from ordinary adjectives in taking the predicative position in an attributive sense. Thus while ἀγαθὴ ἡ πόλις means ‘the city is good,’ πᾶςα ἡ πόλις means ‘all the city.’ πᾶς may however also take the attributive position, like any other adjective. When it does so, the collective force is intensified —
……………..πᾶςα ἡ πόλις = all the city.
…………….. ἡ πᾶςα πόλις = the whole city.
[…]
…Meanwhile, words and phrases unrepeatable in God’s sunlight,
…andwhose very existence was utterly unknown and dreamed of
..by tens of thousands of the decent people of the city; syllables
…obscene and accursed were shouted forth in tones plainly ev-
…incing that they were the common household breath of their
… utterers.

In 1961, two hydrogen bombs were dropped accidentally on the village of Faro, 12 miles north of Goldsboro after a B-52 aircraft broke up in mid air. The two Mark39 weapons were released after the crew abandoned a B-52 bomber which had suffered mid-flight structural failure. Both bombs went through several steps in the arming sequence, but neither one detonated.

“The long-running puzzlement about the appearance of the Cambrian fauna, seemingly abruptly and from nowhere, centers on three key points: whether there really was a mass diversification of complex organisms over a relatively short period of time during the early Cambrian; what might have caused such rapid change; and what it would imply about the origin and evolution of animals…” cambrian explosion
Anabasis, 2.6.6:
“Now such conduct as this, in my opinion, reveals a man fond of war. When he may enjoy peace without dishonour or harm, he chooses war; when he may live in idleness, he prefers toil, provided it be the toil of war; when he may keep his money without risk, he elects to diminish it by carrying on war. As for Clearchus, just as one spends upon a loved one or upon any other pleasure, so he wanted to spend upon war.”
