Elementary, My Dear Readers
NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Elementary, My Dear Readers NCIS (which stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service) is an extremely popular “police procedural” television drama that has spun off as a New Orleans series. NCIS: New Orleans, which airs Tuesday nights on CBS, is set in the Crescent City and it would be highly unusual if you haven’t seen the show filming around town. It premiered on September 23, 2014. The episodes revolve around a fictional team of agents led by Special Agent Dwayne Cassius “King” Pride, Special Agent Christopher LaSalle, and Special Agent Meredith Brody. They handle criminal investigations involving the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. If the NCIS team seems to be everywhere you look these days, allow yourself to travel back in literary time and imagine another famous detective team present all around you. Even if their bailiwick was late Victorian England, I seem to feel their presence all around this historic city. Perhaps you will, too. Arthur Conan Doyle penned his first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study in Scarlet, in novel form in 1886 at the age of 27. In it Holmes expounded: “Criminal cases are continually hinging upon that one point. A man is suspected of a crime months perhaps after it has been committed. His linen or clothes are examined and brownish stains discovered upon them. Are they blood stains, or mud stains, or rust stains, or fruit stains, or what are they? That is a question which has puzzled many an expert, and why? Because there was no reliable test.

The Divinity of Hellenistic Rulers
OriginalverCORE öffentlichung in: A. Erskine (ed.), A Companion to the Hellenistic World,Metadata, Oxford: Blackwell citation 2003, and similar papers at core.ac.uk ProvidedS. 431-445 by Propylaeum-DOK CHAPTKR TWENTY-FIVE The Divinity of Hellenistic Rulers Anßdos Chaniotis 1 Introduction: the Paradox of Mortal Divinity When King Demetrios Poliorketes returned to Athens from Kerkyra in 291, the Athenians welcomed him with a processional song, the text of which has long been recognized as one of the most interesting sources for Hellenistic ruler cult: How the greatest and dearest of the gods have come to the city! For the hour has brought together Demeter and Demetrios; she comes to celebrate the solemn mysteries of the Kore, while he is here füll of joy, as befits the god, fair and laughing. His appearance is majestic, his friends all around him and he in their midst, as though they were stars and he the sun. Hail son of the most powerful god Poseidon and Aphrodite. (Douris FGrH76 Fl3, cf. Demochares FGrH75 F2, both at Athen. 6.253b-f; trans. as Austin 35) Had only the first lines of this ritual song survived, the modern reader would notice the assimilaüon of the adventus of a mortal king with that of a divinity, the etymo- logical association of his name with that of Demeter, the parentage of mighty gods, and the external features of a divine ruler (joy, beauty, majesty). Very often scholars reach their conclusions about aspects of ancient mentality on the basis of a fragment; and very often - unavoidably - they conceive only a fragment of reality.

Executioner by Joshua Lacey the Chapel Was Silent, the Constant Low Hum of the Ships’ Engine Being Heard Far Off in the Sacred Space
Executioner By Joshua Lacey The chapel was silent, the constant low hum of the ships’ engine being heard far off in the sacred space. The Retribution voyaged through the turbulent warp, the ships Gellar field sparking above the domed skylight. How the ship had survived so long was a miracle. It had survived the Tyranids, horrors of the Eye of Terror, traitors from within and without, warp spawn to traitor boarding parties. Yet it remained with a skeleton crew, along with the remains of the outcast 4th company. Kneeling before the relief of the Emperor, before the long flowing standards of the chapter and company, the ruins of pews used as barricades, before the statue of Azariah Vidya himself, knelt a Space Marine. A sergeant who should have died many times, who bore the livery of the Blood Ravens. He knelt where he shouldn’t have, a warrior who should’ve been killed a hundred times over. He should not be here. Not because he should be dead, but because someone else shouldn’t be. From the shadows, Sigmund was watching bare headed. The death had been hard on them all, but the sergeant had felt it the most. He was still young for a space marine, even after the Penance Crusade. And now, when given the opportunity to lead, the sergeant declared himself unworthy. Sigmund knew otherwise. “Do you truly believe yourself lesser brother?” the chaplain spoke, emerging from the shadows to kneel with his brother. “You are as much of a hero of the chapter as he was.” As he got closer, Sigmund saw the dents, the scraps and blackened marks on the red armour of his battle brother.

He is the god of sky and thunder in Greek mythology. Zeus is etymologically cognate with and, under Hellenic influence, became particularly closely identified with Roman Jupiter. Zeus is the child of Cronus and Rhea, and the youngest of his siblings. In most traditions he is married to Hera, although, at the oracle of Dodona, his consort is Dione: according to the Iliad, he is the father of Aphrodite by Dione.[5] He is known for his erotic escapades.

A N T I C H I T À ALBERTO DI CASTRO Late-Mannerist European sculptor Second half 16th century The Three Graces High relief in terracotta, 57.5 x 45.5 x 13.5 cm (22 5/8 x 17 7/8 x 5 3/8 in.) The artistic popularity of the Graces can be traced back to the Charities, minor Ancient Greek goddesses who centuries later in Ancient Rome became known as the Three Graces. Tasked with spreading goodwill, pleasure and mirth, Aglaea, “beauty, splendour or glory”, Euphrosyne, “good cheer or mirth”, and Thalia, “rich banquet or festivity”, were the immortal daughters of Zeus and the sea-nymph Eurynome; they attended banquets and, together with the Muses, danced for the gods. Their principal attributes, an apple, a rose and a sprig of myrtle. Although only Roman copies are to be found today, the earliest portrayals of the three Graces belong to the Hellenistic period.
