    Extractions: Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2 CANADA As a preliminary to showing its relevance to our Platonic dialogue I offer the following brief description of cicadine metamorphosis which I have put together as a sort of cento from the accounts of several modern observers. Although Aristotle's description of the emergence and final moulting of the cicada is rather brief, it conforms quite closely to those of modern observers. This is enough to tell us at the very least, that some Greeks of Plato's time could, as Aristotle or his informants did, observe the relevant phenomena as here described. As souls, and souls with wings at that, the Platonic cicadas have much in common with certain winged souls described in the Phaedrus, though not in the passage about the cicada-men. It must, in any case, be difficult for anyone with a knowledge of the emergence, ecdysis, and wing deployment of cicadas to read a dialogue with repeated and prominent explicit references to cicadas and not to see allusions to the same insects in other parts of the dialogue as well. What I see as some of Plato's references to the life-cycle of the cicada-soul are presented in a diffuse, lyrical and almost mystical manner in a long speech of Eros and the soul of the lover-philosopher-dialectician. Socrates has just finished delivering this speech before the "interlude" on the cicada-men. The Cicada to the Cricket O cricket, you who soothe my passion and provide the consolation of sleep;

    Extractions: Remove We are so accustomed to live in places full of linguistic visual and audio clues that give us constant feedback and instructions as we go about our day to day routines. We don't really think about them until they become absent. Being in a place where such aids are incomprehensible could be very stressful for a traveler. At best it can be a nuisance (as when one gets lost), and at worst it can be dangerous (if a warning sign cannot be read). On the other hand, a traveler might feel liberated in the absence of familiar clues and instructions about how to behave, and how to live every single moment. If you think about it, traveling and vacationing is usually such an enjoyable experience because we are "forced" to unlock new ways of communicating, and in the process we get to re-define our own selves. If you plan a trip to Greece, there is no reason to be too worried about the language. The country and its people are so accustomed to visitors that it has adopted to accommodate their comfortable experience.

    Extractions: OF THE FUTURE SPACE SOCIETIES By Michael D. Rellos (Paper to the 5th Congress "COSMIC SPACE AND PHILOSOPHY" in Delphi, Greece, October 22-25, 1993) The modern world is based on the universality of trade and communications. The usual method of communication, in all times, consists in some human language. There exist more than 2.000 languages in the world. This is a great problem for all humanity and, and as far it concerns History, there are two solutions: Translation and Predominance of only one language. Fortunately, almost every man is able to learn and speak more than one language. In modern countries millions of people study foreign languages and especially those of the most influential states. Political and cultural influence has always been the main causes for the existence of a predominant language. Translation is the necessary procedure for the harmonization of the communication among people of different origins. This has been so for many centuries. Communication problems are always provoked by the need of many people to exchange ideas and specific information for various reasons and about many things. Then, if the means of communication, i.e. the languages, are not compatible and if there exists a luck of knowledge of the "foreign" language, communication becomes uncertain. Especially in now-a-days, the universal trade and the speed of information transfer through satellites, TV stations, radio stations, telephones, the Internet and other sources, magnify the problem of modern Babel...

    Extractions: Frequently Asked Questions Home Site Map Search Q: Why are there two blocks of Greek characters in the Unicode Standard? A: The layout of the Greek script in the Unicode Standard is an artifact of the history of Unicode and of ISO/IEC 10646. The Unicode Standard started out with just the Greek block (U+0370..U+03FF), with Greek characters laid out in compatibility with the modern Greek monotonic standard, ISO/IEC 8859-7, and with additions for some Coptic, ancient Greek, and Greek symbol letters. When the Unicode Standard had the repertoire from drafts of ISO/IEC 10646 merged in, as part of the standards compromise which resulted in the synchronization of the Unicode Standard and 10646, the Unicode Standard acquired another collection of pre-composed Greek characters which were intended for polytonic Greek usage. Those had to be placed somewhere, and a "compatibility" block was created at U+1F00..U+1FFF to accommodate them.

God named the light "day", and the darkness he named "night". There was evening, then morning, the first day. Then God said, "Let there be a horizon in the middle of the water in order to separate the water". So God made the horizon and separated the water above and below the horizon. And so it was.
