Unity Descends From Above

You can see the trailer for the official "Maria-sama ga miteru" releases now. I am looking forward to seeing how RightStuf handles the translating compared to the fansub.

Aelia Laelia Crispis - This name begins an allegorical inscription (supposedly discovered inBologna) that confounded 16th and 17th century alchemists. Translation from "MysteriumConiunctionis" by Carl Jung:

D.M.
Aelia Laelia Crispis,
Neither man nor woman, nor mongrel, nor maid,
nor boy, nor crone, nor chaste,
nor whore, nor virtuous, but all.
Carried away neither by hunger, nor by sword,
nor by poison, but by all.
Neither in heaven, nor in earth, nor in water,
but everywhere is her resting place.

Lucius Agatho Priscius,
Neither husband, nor lover, nor kinsman,
neither mourning, nor rejoicing, nor weeping,
[raised up] neither mound, nor pyramid, nor tomb, but all.
He knows and knows not [what] he raised up to whom.

This is a tomb that has no body in it.
This is a body that has no tomb round it.
But body and tomb are the same.

Perhaps coincidentally, there are two species of orchid named laelia crispa ("a popular summer flower whose white and purple blooms are large and fragrant, with ruffled petals and lips") and laeliacrispi labia ("purple or pale magenta flowers").

I love songs that need footnotes.

Page 67: "First Errand"
In Japanese the show was called "Hajimete no Otsukai" and it would air once or twice a year. The show involved little kids being sent to do things on their own (ride a train, do the shopping) with a whole crew of cameramen and secret protectors watching over them. Proving their independence at a very young age is an important moment for Japanese kids.

You may remember excerpts from an interview with the good Baron which I posted a while back. Evidently, they are all available in a PDF. Enjoy.

I know this person -- or rather her parents.

As you may know, plutherus is staying with me due to having picked up a contract in Portland. Let the corruption begin. So far he has enjoyed the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS, Azumanga Diaoh & Revolutionary Girl Utena animes. As preperatory work for the Nana series, we are also watching 'Sid & Nancy.' He now knows that 'Anarchy in the UK' and several other anthemic punk songs were sung by the Sex Pistols.

On other news fronts, I had my drill weekend. The first day was 'family day' which meant I took my kids to the reserve cented and they got to run around with other children for the morning and early afternoon. I will neigher confirm or deny when I left & whether it was earlier than I was supposed to leave. One of the activities was a face painting booth. J (once again) had himself painted into a visage of death. He had 36 painted on one arm (like a tatoo). I asked him why, and he told me that it was because the numbers 1-36, when added together equal 666. The face paint lady looked uncomfortable. He then had the 'pi' symbol painted onto the other arm. Pictures should follow later. I fully expect him to be hitting the clubs by the time he is 15.

The next day I spent with the muster reports and securing a waiver from medical for this rounds Physical Readiness Training. My doctor doesn't want me to be doing a bunch of sit-ups, push-ups, etc with my shoulder messed up. Anyway
