Which is why we¡¯re offering ours for free.¡± Old¡¯s Cool Academy Back-to-Basics Summer Camp starts July 1st. Learn more. From: Anu Garg (words at wordsmith.org) Subject: Eponyms derived from fiction In this week¡¯s A.Word.A.Day I asked our readers what fictional character they would like to turn into an eponym. Here¡¯s a selection from the responses. My candidate for eponym is (Kenneth) Widmerpool, the main character in Anthony Powell¡¯s 3,000-page, 12-novel cycle, A Dance to the Music of Time. He is a spectacularly, wonderfully, exuberantly loathsome character who reinvents himself so many times, so many ways, that it staggers the imagination. Nobody much likes him, with good reason, but by sheer force of will, he achieves great success -- for a while. I once had a Solomon Islands eclectus parrot baby I named Widmerpool, but he escaped the house. So, a Widmerpool would be a laughable, ridiculous figure who surprises you. A little, but only a little, like Trump. -Ben Silverman, Playas de Rosarito, Mexico (bajabensilverman gmail.com) Spock: Logical, not emotional. After Mr. Spock of Star Trek. -Oberon Zell, Asheville, North Carolina (oberon mcn.org) Tom Parsons: Someone who consistently works against their own best interests; a happy conformist who is making it clear to everyone that he¡¯s happily conforming, to keep himself safe from the judgement of other conformists. Everybody who reads 1984 thinks they would be Winston Smith and not Tom Parsons. Until the cage of rats. ¡°He loved Big Brother¡± is the most soul-crushing final line in literature. -Bill Young, Vernon, Connecticut (billsplut gmail.com) Yossarian: A person who seems paranoid but isn¡¯t, because people really are out to get him. After Capt. John Yossarian in Joseph Heller¡¯s novel, Catch-22. -Jim Distelhorst, Edmonds, Washington (jim.distelhorst gmail.com) Marlowe: To investigate someone or something of dubious character. After my favorite character in fiction, the down-at-the-heels private detective Philip Marlowe. -Tom Furgas, Youngstown, Ohio (tofu4879 gmail.com) Leibowitz: To study diligently. After the monks in Walter M. Miller Jr¡¯s classic sci-fi novel A Canticle for Leibowitz who spend centuries preserving the work of Isaac Edward Leibowitz, the patron of their order. -David Santangelo, Stevens Point, Wisconsin (dcsantangelo2005 comcast.net) Rick Blaine: to do the right thing in a difficult situation -- despite great personal cost. After Rick Blaine, owner of Rick¡¯s American Caf¨¦ in the film Casablanca, who did the right thing in giving up Ilsa to support the work of Laszlo fighting the Naz¦És. Example: President Biden rick blained when he withdrew his candidacy in the 2020 election, and threw his weight behind Kamala Harris, hoping to achieve a Democratic victory over Donald Trump. -Brenda J. Gannam, Brooklyn, New York (gannamconsulting earthlink.net) Snopes: A person lacking either conscience or ethics who achieves power and riches for his own needs. In his book The Hamlet William Faulkner creates the quietly cunning Flem Snopes, who quietly but effectively gains control of the riches and property of an entire community. Gradually but surely squeezing out more ethical competitors, he smothers what is good and traditional in the local culture. (All three volumes of the Snopes Trilogy are challenging reading in any decade, but perhaps very well-suited for the present!). -Dave Campbell, Dayton, Washington (museumofdave gmail.com) Scout: An extremely good-hearted, empathetic, thoughtful, confident, and highly int

Fw: Peace, Hope and Healing From A Wounded Place
From: Gregory Fry Today's Scripture: On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, ¡°Peace be with you.¡± When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, ¡°Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, so I send you.¡± And when He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, ¡°Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.¡± Thomas, called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples said to him, ¡°We have seen the Lord.¡± But he said to them, ¡°Unless I see the mark of the nails in His hands and put my finger into the nail marks and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.¡± Now a week later His disciples were again inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood in their midst and said, ¡°Peace be with you.¡± Then he said to Thomas, ¡°Put your finger here and see My hands, and bring your hand and put it into My side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe.¡± Thomas answered and said to Him, ¡°My Lord and my God!¡± Jesus said to him, ¡°Have you come to believe because you have seen Me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.¡± Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written that you may come to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that through this belief you may have life in His name. --John 20:19-31 Jesus ¡°showed them His hands and His side.¡± There is an obvious context to today's Gospel pericope: Jesus is willing to go "the extra mile" to satisfy the apostles' doubts about His resurrection. Recall that up to this point all the apostles have had to go on regarding Jesus's resurrection was the empty tomb--and the testimony of others. If one accepts the canonicity of the longer ending of Mark (16:9-20)--or even if one doesn't--it would seem that the conclusion noting their skepticism regarding the testimony of Mary Magdalene (16:11) and of the disciples from Emmaus (16:13) makes sense: why would Jesus have felt the need to directly reveal Himself to them in the way that He did? Why would He make a point of showing His wounds to them otherwise? When calling the absent apostle "Doubting Thomas"--since he was absent at that first appearance of Jesus to them--are we not stigmatizing him unfairly? Had any of the other apostles been absent, would they have demonstrated any greater faith? Thomas's statement--¡°Unless I see the mark of the nails in His hands and put my finger into the nail marks and put my hand into His side, I will not believe¡±--is not that of someone who would have believed testimonial evidence of Jesus's resurrection up to that point. By extension, the same would apply to the other apostles, or they would have confronted Thomas on that basis as well as through their own eyewitness testimony. At the same time, I wonder if there is another meaning/message in the way He revealed Himself to them. Is there something else that He wanted them ¨C and wants us ¨C to see? I think there¡¯s more to be seen than just the mark of the nails and the piercing of the spear. I think it¡¯s about more than simply being able to identify Jesus as the one who was crucified. I think that in showing us His wounds Jesus is identifying with every person who has ever been or is wounded. I think the open wounds of Jesus hold the pain of the world. And as the poet Warsan Shire writes in her poem, ¡°what they did yesterday afternoon,¡± that pain is everywhere: later that night i held an atlas in my lap ran my fingers across the whole world and whispered where does it hurt? it answered everywhere everywhere everywhere. The wounded body of Jesus is an emblem of our wounded world. To look at Jesus¡¯s hands and His side is to see the wounds we¡¯ve received and the ones we¡¯ve inflicted on others. And I w

Fw: Astronomy Picture of the Day (4/26/2025): Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 5335
Astronomy Picture of the Day Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2025 April 26 Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 5335 Image Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI Explanation: This stunning portrait of NGC 5335 was captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. Some 170,000 light-years across and over 200 million light-years away toward the constellation Virgo, the magnificent spiral galaxy is seen face-on in Hubble's view. Within the galactic disk, loose streamers of star forming regions lie along the galaxy's flocculent spiral arms. But the most striking feature of NGC 5335 is its prominent central bar. Seen in about 30 percent of galaxies, including our Milky Way, bar structures are understood to channel material inward toward the galactic center, fueling star formation. Of course, distant background galaxies are easy to spot, scattered around the sharp Hubble image. Launched in 1990, Hubble is now celebrating its 35th year exploring the cosmos from orbit around planet Earth.
