Respite: Look Up!

Yeah. So this vale of tears is a vale of tears.There are more things in heaven and Earth than are dreamt of, revealed by our natural philosophy.
This may be a dreadful time on all kinds of scales, but it remains the greatest era of exploration in human history. We are not simply citizens of a misgoverned republic (and shut up all you jackals who live in better-run places just now). We have become, thanks to extraordinary and driven work by tens of thousands (at least), inhabitants of a cosmos–and some recent results drive that truth home.
For one–our own star is ready for its close up:
That's a Solar Orbiter mission image, depicting what are called "campfires" on the surface of the sun, at a resolution never before achieved. Lots more images and details here.
And, to stretch our legs a little, how about this? The first image ever made of a planetary system around a sun-like star:
And one more, not a new one, but to me, one of the most extraordinary cultural monuments in the history of humankind, the Hubble Ultra Deep Field:
Every time I look at that, my breath catches. From the Hubblesite press release:
This tiny slice of the universe, speckled with galaxies near and far, tells the story of galaxy evolution over cosmic time. Among the 10,000 or so galaxies pictured here are newborns, adolescents, adults, and retirees. Like looking through a vast collection of family photos, astronomers are poring over this comprehensive image to see how galaxies grew up, matured, and aged.
Check out that release, btw. It's a very brief introduction to the multiple layers of inquiry and effort it took to make that image–which takes our eyes, and hence our minds, from the almost-present back 13 billion years, to the time when the universe was, in cosmic time, a toddler.
One picture, constructed by puny, tiny, ever-so finite humans, to hold the sweep of the universe.
Respites come at all angles. Straight up being one of them.

I started the outline for my next book today. Very, very preliminary title is 'Being Adopted By A Superhero Is Awkward.' My beta readers for I'm Late To Alchemy Class were almost unanimous in wanting more of a particular side character, so I'm giving her her own book.
I kinda wanted to write my reverse cosmic horror Younger Things, about a teenage girl who opens a portal to the Outer Darkness, goes through, and wreaks devastation with her 'logic' and 'compassion', but books that weird do not sell. I got to go where the money is right now.
Speaking of stars, this grandma should have become one.
The solar image was taken, I believe by the new very large solar telescopr built on Milokai, on the big Island. Interesting how hot under the collar some here posted about new telescopes being built there. But this is what results when these new instruments are built.
@Cermet: Actually the image is from the Solar Orbiter probe.
Which is apparently different from the Parker Solar Probe? I'm unsure because both articles claim the probe has gotten closer to the sun than any other probe. Parker won't reach its closest orbit until 2025.
Tom Levenson
@Cermet: The solar image was made by a space-based observatory, not a ground based telescope.
The new large solar telescope to which you refer saw first light in January. It is in Hawaii, but is not sited at the Mauna Kea location that is the focus of dispute. It is, rather, one island north, on Maui's Haleakala.

If we could take a picture of all of the electrical activity in a human brain when it is thinking intently — all of the neurons firing, all of the intra- and extra-cellular chemical activity with bonds being made and broken, ions transferred and captured, at every step of the process —
then it might look something like this.
A boiling mass of high-energy activity, whose meaning cannot be understood merely by looking at the surface. Where "I love grandma" and "I hate broccoli" both look like inscrutable frothings of electrical action. Where chaos on the surface belies the order underneath.
The human brain may be the most complex and intricate system in the cosmos. And stars may just be cosmic h-bomb bonfires. But if the stars are actually thinking, then their thoughts might look like this.
OldDave
One of my favorite Berkeley Breathed comics addressed the Hubble Ultra Deep Field image.
The Parker and the Solar Orbiter are indeed two different efforts. The Parker was created at Johns Hopkins APL, the Solar Orbiter from ESA.
ETA: the Parker's mission is a bit more dangerous, as it will get six times closer to the Sun (10 solar radii for the Parker, vs. 60 solar radii for the Solar Orbiter).
@Ken: OK, after reading more carefully I see my confusion. Parker became the closest-ever probe to the Sun in 2018. Solar Orbiter was launched in 2020 and is now in a closer orbit than Parker, but Parker's orbit is still being changed. So they're leapfrogging.
Through whatever convoluted means, what immediately came to mind? If Marlon Brando had a deep Boston accent:
"Stellar!"

That first picture is very sunny.

Thank you for this respite.
James E Powell
From its original total cost estimate of about US$400 million, the telescope cost about US$4.7 billion by the time of its launch. Hubble's cumulative costs were estimated to be about US$10 billion in 2010, twenty years after launch.
Totally worth it. I love looking at Hubble photos, though I'm sure that filling me with awe and amazement was not among the project's objectives.
@Cermet: The cost is shafting the Hawai'ian native population AGAIN about building telescopes on sacred grounds. I understand the scientific community gets great use out of these sites, but every time a telescope is proposed, another chunk of mountain top gets taken for it. There has to be a balance at some point. It's not like there wasn't a concentrated effort to eliminate the Hawai'ian language or anything.
But I can't wait until the James Webb telescope goes up next year (hopefully). Hubble has been a wonderful workhorse, but if the Webb does what it says on the tin…wow won't even cover it.

Great post, Tom, thanks so much. Anything to distract we jackals from the maelstrom we're roiling in here on Earth!!!
Have tried to find a local place to see the recent comet, to no avail. Too many trees and hills. Neighbor said "Look for a pipeline crossing a ridge top road — or a really big strip job with a broken out gate!" Naw, I know where there are both of those, but in the dark you can slip off a ridge top, or sink into a mud pit on a strip job.
STILL have not spotted Comet Neowise #TooLazyToDriveIntoTheSticks but it's reportedly still in viewing range. Its now visible to those in the Southern Hemisphere. Its discovery was from yet another space-based observatory, from which it takes its name.
Has Trump's Space Force given us anything cool yet?
smedley the uncertain
Thanks Tom, thoroughly thought provoking as 'What if…. It interests me that the jackals are more focused on who got the picture and how. There seems little interest in the information and knowledge to be gained from the image content. I can only follow Sagans mantra 'Billions and Billions….'
Yes, I'm sure my use of mantra is incorrect.
@Tom Levenson
Can see it from my house.
Short video includes a close look at ol' Sol.
@smedley the uncertain:
Eh. Language is flexible. And if anything Sagan was understanding the actual universe.
It does depress me a bit that if we actually do make it out beyond our solar system via FTL drive, we'll never get to those far away galaxies. Curse you expansion of the universe.
@trollhattan: Hasn't it moved out of view? (I haven't looked for it in Chicago.)
Has the Kremlin's bitch sold the Moon to the Russkis yet?
ETA – Correction – have the Kremlin's bitches, the traitorous Trump trash mobster crime family sold the Moon to the Russkis yet? Because they've all sucked the Kremlin's asshole for decades.
Honus
Going out at 10:15 to watch the space station pass over. In central Virginia. Here's the link to see when you can see it from your house:
https://spotthestation.nasa.gov
@trolhattan
A dull and derivative logo and crappy motto.
@Honus:
Know people who have photographed it transiting the sun and moon and I was not prepared for how fast that sucker is moving. You either need to videotape it or operate the camera at 50 or 60 fps to get a decent sequence.
Have to remind myself it's the biggest manmade orbiting object ever, by far.
@Frankensteinbeck:
That actually sounds really good!
Never played any tabletop RPGs, but I've heard of of some themed after the Cthulhu mythos.
An idea that's been banging around my head was an Lovecraftian RPG set in the Depression-era United States, specifically the early 1930s. Tentatively called, "Capos and Cthulhu", gangsters would feature prominently as a character type players could choose from. Hoover-era FBI agents as well as maybe Prohibition agents would be another choice. Private detectives working for clients eager to secure the artifact, in addition to some rich British nobility/explorer types. The gangsters, along with several other factions, would be hot on the trail of an otherworldly artifact located in the swamps of Louisiana the capo wants his hands on.
@NotMax: Well it's not on Milokai then is it?
@trollhattan: its just fun for us to watch passing over and think "there's people in there". I always feel like waving to them.
Anotherlurker
I was on the phone with a lifelong friend on the East Coast, this afternoon. A good deal of our conversation centered on his immense pride that his daughter, who is in an Astrophysics PHD program, had her first credit as 3rd author of a published article.
Proud Daddy is very rightfully proud!
Would have to be limited to the early 30s, then, as Prohibition went bye-bye in late '33.
Sunrise from up there. Eight years, shit.
Our respite today was gorging on sun warmed blackberries between swims in the river :-)

Far less spectacular, but much easier to see: tonight Saturn, Jupiter and the Moon are forming a neat triangle. They'll be doing this dance throughout the rest of the year, and on Dec. 21 they'll be coming together in a very tight little packet.
@Goku (aka Amerikan Baka): Both Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu and Pelgrane's Trail of Cthulhu use the 1930s setting. That is after all when Lovecraft was writing.
Both games also suggest gangsters as a possible investigator (character) background. I can't offhand remember Lovecraft using such protagonists. There were thieves in The Terrible Old Man, but they were not portrayed as heroic or even sympathetic.
@raven: Nice. Was that Hawaii? I'm with you on "Eight years, shit." A vacation we took just a couple of years ago turns out to have been in 2014. Shit.
Nice to know there must be something better out there than we puny beings here.
@trollhattan: I usually wait for the 4+ minute transits to set an alarm, but I'm always out there (here in central VA too!) whenever it works, early a.m. or late night. =)
@Honus: and yes, I wave too…never fails to amaze, never fails to give me hope!
Can easily see a mash-up of Doc Savage and Lovecraft working without too much fiddling with either canon.
Another Scott
Neat stuff.
I had visions of being an astronomer when I started college, then discovered that there were only a few dozen jobs in the field, then discovered I really wasn't that good at physics… It's good I discovered that early!
In other news, https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/08/thousands-demand-netanyahu-quit-coronavirus-handling-200802000808674.html
Thousands of demonstrators have gathered outside the official residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and thronged the streets of central Jerusalem, as weeks of protests against the Israeli leader appeared to be gaining steam.
The demonstration in central Jerusalem, along with smaller gatherings in Tel Aviv, near Netanyahu's beach house in central Israel and at dozens of busy intersections nationwide, was one of the largest turnouts in weeks of protests.
Thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets, calling for Netanyahu to resign, protesting his handling of the country's coronavirus crisis and saying he should not remain in office while on trial for corruption charges.
Though Netanyahu has tried to play down the protests, the twice-a-week gatherings show no signs of slowing.
Gradually, and then suddenly.
Scott.
@Honus: Thanks for the reminder! I went out and saw it. Though the long ISS passes are the best, the cool thing about the shorter passes is seeing the station fade out in the middle of the sky as it goes into the Earth's shadow.
Spinoza Is My Co-pilot
So, my respite along the lines suggested by Mr. Levenson here has been to re-read The Order of Time by theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli (fairly new book, just published a couple years back, which is when I first read it). Just finished it today after working on it over the past 4 days (as a respite to my "job" — together with my lovely wife — as full-time pandemic daycare for our two pre-school age granddaughters, sweet but very tiring darlings that they are).
Best book of "science for the layman" I've ever read, on a topic (time, of course) that is endlessly fascinating to me and is, I think, one of the most important "big questions". Goes pretty deep into the science, while also being deeply humanistic (he delves into our consciousness — our very identities — as an intrinsic aspect of our experience of time). Highly recommend to the crowd hereabouts.
The idea driving Younger Things is that all cosmic horror agrees that their reality and ours is incompatible. So, presumably US breaking through into THEIR world would be just as destructive as their breaking through into ours. We would bring order and reason and envelop their world in light.
@trollhattan: There may be something about ISS in "On The Road" next week.
I just returned from a mission to find Moose and Squirrel.
I wish NASA would send another rover to Mars with a microphone. I would love to hear the sounds of Mars.
@different-church-lady:

They are conspiring against us. We should blast them out of the sky.
@SFBayAreaGal: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/nasas-insight-hears-peculiar-sounds-on-mars
HTH!
Unfortunately where I live, summer brings in the fog. Makes it hard to see anything in the night sky.
@Honus: Ah, thank you. I'd been meaning to look that up, and you've saved me the trouble.
I think the last time I saw an ISS viewing chart it was still on monospaced web pages.
but books that weird do not sell
I don't mean to tell you your business, but publishers keep buying books about why the President is great and deserves a second term, so I'm pretty sure what you're describing is not too weird to sell.
@SFBayAreaGal: They just sent one with a helicopter.
@Another Scott
Professor teaching an astronomy class I took liked to use different colors of chalk to sketch out various items cosmic and their properties on the blackboard during the lecture portions of the program. There was one day he all of a sudden stopped mid-sentence, turned his head to one side and to the other several times, then tersely announced, in his heavy German accent, "No more class for today. I cannot find mine blue light!"
Also, speaking of respites…go check out all the #LisaBonet madness on Twitter, y'all. F'n hysterical :)
@Another Scott: "Ulla! Ulla! Ulla!"
@Tom Levenson: That picture is clearly the eye of Sauron over Barad-dur, which is being circled by Nazguls.
@mrmoshpotato:
We should blast them out of the sky.
Well why the hell else would we have a Space Force?
@Tom Levenson: It could also be Brother Eye.
@🐾BillinGlendaleCA:
There may be something about ISS in "On The Road" next week.
Tease!
@Honus: I usually wave, and often call out "hello, astronauts, Привет, cosmonauts!" There's also a tradition among Twitter space fans of the #ISSWave.

I was at a park today sitting alone and reading a book. A couple of young boys came to the playground near me, the older one looked a little old for the equipment, maybe ten or eleven. He climbed up on top of a piece and looked like he was about to jump down. He was a little overweight and I was worried that he might hurt himself with what appeared to be about a five-foot drop. He came to the edge, jumped, did a flip with a half-twist, and landed facing the equipment, turned, and walked away like it was nothing. Life's little surprises.
@Adam L Silverman: Curses!
Found out!
@Tom Levenson: Or it could be the central power battery on Ryut in the Forbidden Sector.
@Adam L Silverman: I believe I am witnessing a replay of a well-spent misspent youth.
@SFBayAreaGal: Hehe, here you go
@BillinGlendaleCA
Additionally the just launched Perseverance includes two microphones, one of which is intended to survive the landing. The other's function is to record the sounds of the descent.
@NotMax: :-)
@Another Scott: He would deliver Israel to Hamas and Iran before he'd step down.
@NotMax: a mash-up of Doc Savage and Lovecraft
I'm kind of surprised Philip Jose Farmer didn't work Lovecraft into his Wold Newton crossovers. Most of Lovecraft's protagonists aren't all that heroic, I suppose.
Crossovers of Sherlock Holmes and Lovecraft are common. James Lovegrove and Lois H. Gresh have both written trilogies, and many authors have done short stories. The collection The Improbable Adventures of Sherlock Holmes has several examples.
It's an endless source of wonder for me that every object in the Hubble Deep Field is a galaxy.
@Adam L Silverman: LOL Well played.
@Frankensteinbeck: This sounds like a neat concept. I would read it.
@Tom Levenson: Actually the whole Blackest Night different colored Lantern Corps is from the early to mid aughts. Basically, bubblegum reading while spending almost all of 2009 on Temporary Duty traveling around the US for meetings, operational planning team meetings, conferences, war-games, did I mention meetings?
@Redshift: If you look very closely at the center-lower-left, you'll see that one is actually a Type III Kardashev civilization. But there's a galaxy inside the shell.
@Ken: Did Kim Newman work any of the Lovecraft stuff into his later novels in the Anno Dracula universe? I've only ever read and re-read Anno Dracula and The Bloody Red Baron. Deity knows he managed to cram just about everything else in there. Not that I'm complaining, I really enjoyed all the call outs to the other genre characters.
We had a couple friends over last evening for an appropriately distanced take-out dinner on the townhouse association pool patio, followed by a swim.
I happened to glance up at the sky right about 10pm here in Minneapolis and saw a very bright object moving towards the ESE (or so) from out of Arcturus (I had to look that up after the fact, so don't be impressed). I pointed it out and guessed it was the ISS.
It was the ISS! I checked heavens-above and indeed we had a pass at a -3.3 brightness between 9:59 and 10:03 last night. It was lovely to see.
@NotMax: He was a fan of Weimar cinema?
@Adam L Silverman: I only read through the third novel, the one set in Rome and full of Italian cinema crossovers. No Lovecraftian crossovers to that point.
EDIT: Wikipedia says that one was Dracula Cha Cha Cha. It also doesn't mention any Lovecraft crossovers.
However it does remind me of one of my favorite Holmes-Lovecraft crossovers, Gaiman's A Study in Emerald. That would be an interesting background for role-playing.
@Adam L. Silverman
G'nort rulez!
(Yes, know he predates the saga you cite by some years. In space no one can hear artistic license.)
A photo of the sun that absolutely enthralled me came out a few years ago. I don't remember how it was taken, but it was quite a closeup of the solar surface. Showed bright glowing gas whirlpools almost hexagonally arranged with darker matter between them, over the entire surface.
I'm not sure why that specific image did it, but I suddenly had an absolute sense of the sun not as a single solid "ball of gas.," but as a chaotic, roiling ball-shaped storm of superheated gas clusters. Well, yes, of course I already knew that – intellectually. This was like getting it viscerally.
Hard to explain; sort of like the first time I saw Saturn in a telescope rather than as an image on a page or computer/TV screen. It was really, really there, live and in person.
ETA: I remember now part of what got to me: the translucency of the surface. The immediacy of realizing those storms and chaos went all the way down.

Guy's first name was Wulff. Can't get much more Germanic than that.
@mrmoshpotato: Lol, I love Marvin
@different-church-lady: Exactly! 🤣
@Another Scott: Thank you. Hearing the wind was so cool
Doc Savage, boy, I read a ton of those back when Bantam was issuing the paperbacks. Don't remember much, but I went through a lot of them.
@Ken: I really need to read beyond the second one. I just re-read the first one as an e-book and it has all sorts of supplementary material at the back. It has the alternate final chapter from the novella Red Reign that he expanded into Anno Dracula, it has the script treatment he wrote from when it was being pitched to the movie studios, and two more items which I haven't read yet as the dogs wanted to be walked. And he's annotated them to explain why he made certain changes.
@mrmoshpotato: I found Moose and Squirrel.
@Tom Levenson: Please Natasha, this is kiddie show.
@🐾BillinGlendaleCA: I found Moose and Squirrel.
If you're expecting one of us to reply "The falcon flies at midnight" and hand you a self-destructing tape with your next mission, you're posting in the wrong blog.
Your next mission, should you choose to accept it, is to track down Ponsonby Britt.
@NotMax: Don't forget Ch'p!
@NotMax: Too obscure of a reference?
@SFBayAreaGal: Everyone loves Marvin – except Bugs and Daffy.
Not at all. Assumed you were working in The Blue Angel.

@Redshift:
There are a few Milky Way stars in there. For example, look near the upper left, just below and left of the reddish galaxy.
@Spinoza Is My Co-pilot: Thank you for that recommendation! I've put in a hold request at my local library.
@NotMax: No. The Blue Light – https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0022694/
@NotMax: Very nice. I've added that to my liked videos.
Cubs win! Good night.
@Redshift: Almost everything is a galaxy. As a point of clarification, HST has taken a few different "deep field" images: Hubble Deep Field North, Hubble Deep Field South, Hubble Ultra Deep Field, Hubble Deep Field Infrared, Hubble eXtreme Deep Field, and the Hubble Ultra Deep Field Ultraviolet.
In the original Hubble Deep Field N (actually a composite created from four different images taken with two different cameras), there are three or four Milky Way stars characterized by the diffraction spikes they exhibit.
That said, these images are amazing as much as for how far back in time they look as for how many galaxies they reveal.
Science is good.

@Sure Lurkalot:
I can recommend "The Age of Entanglement" by Louisa Gilder. Takes license but is very engaging.
I would say "takes license" is a pretty big understatement. The subject is really interesting, but the author tries way too hard to turn it into a "brave mavericks fight the closed minds" story.
@Sure Lurkalot: I will be sure to check it out. I went into engineering for my career, but minored in physics (which I loved, though couldn't pursue further since I knew the math was beyond me).
First two image links appear bad.
The first takes me back to the post, the second to 404 land.

Don't know how anyone can look at that last photo and still believe we humans are alone in the universe.

If your site got fewer visitors some of them comments on your website and some of them do Not. Then WordPress default comment system is fine. but if you got a large website, a lot of people comments on your website?
Then I will really recommend you to use the disqus comment system. It will handle all of your comments. If you haven't installed it. You should do it now.
It will replace all of your default WordPress commenting system without losing your existing comments.
Disqus commenting system is really helpful with large website commenting platform. And also work against Automatic anti-spammers.

Is Modi not ashamed to visit Andhra Pradesh with 'empty hands', asks CM Chandrababu Naidu
Is Modi not ashamed to visit Andhra Pradesh with 'empty hands', asks CM Chandrababu Naidu
In a letter to the Prime Minister on the eve of his scheduled visit to the port city of Visakhapatnam on Friday, the Chief Minister said the Reorganisation Act came into being 59 months ago while Modi assumed the high office 57 months ago.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu Thursday asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi if he was not ashamed to visit the state with 'empty hands' and said he owed an explanation to 'five crore people' over unfulfilled promises, vis-a-vis the AP Reorganisation Act,2014.
About five years had elapsed, but no promise made to Andhra Pradesh has been fulfilled, he said. "I personally visited New Delhi 29 times and made numerous pleas to you, but to no avail," the Chief Minister noted.
Chandrababu Naidu said the people of Andhra Pradesh were seething over 'your betrayal, injustice and cheating' in the last five years.
Though the entire country responded to the 'dharma poratam' (just fight) of Andhra Pradesh seeking its rights, neither the Prime Minister nor the BJP reacted, he added. "On the eve of your visit to Visakhapatnam, I would like to remind you how angry people of Andhra Pradesh are.
As a representative of five crore people, I am questioning you on your betrayal and reminding you of our responsibility as public representatives to understand the sentiments of people," the Chief Minister said.
In the letter, a copy of which was released to the media, the Chief Minister raised issues like Special Category Status, funds for the Polavaram project, Amaravati city, bridging of revenue deficit, metro rail for Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada cities and increasing number of seats in the Legislative Assembly
"Are you not ashamed to visit Andhra Pradesh with empty hands, by not implementing the promises made by the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and also those enlisted in the Reorganisation Act? As a person holding a high office, you owe an explanation on all these issues.
I am demanding that you answer the five crore people of the state on these," the Chief Minister said.
Referring to the Railways' announcement of establishment of a new South Coast Railway zone at Visakhapatnam, he said the Centre once again 'cheated' the state by giving away the Rs 6,500 crore revenue earning KK Line to Raigada Division, leaving only the 'paltry income earning region' to the state.
Meanwhile, addressing a meeting of senior TDP leaders, the chief minister directed them to stage protests state-wide on Friday against the Prime Ministers visit.
"I will wear a black shirt. Everyone should wear a black shirt and protest with black flags," he said.

Appendix 8: Browning and "Rabbi ben Ezra".
The story as it is usually told (eg Garrard, as note 1f, p.81) – and to which we will return later – is as follows. Robert Browning was given a copy of FitzGerald's Rubaiyat by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in 1861. In 1864, Browning published a collection of poems called Dramatis Personae. In this collection was the poem entitled "Rabbi ben Ezra" (= Abraham ibn Ezra, a 12th century poet, scholar and mathematician) which, basically, rejects the hedonistic sentiments of FitzGerald's Khayyam in favour of higher things. Indeed, "Rabbi ben Ezra" might be described as Browning's reply to FitzGerald's Rubaiyat, Browning's Rabbi being the opposite number to FitzGerald's Omar. Instead of a nihilistic "live for today" approach to life, Browning's Rabbi ben Ezra sees life's trials and tribulations as a road to spiritual development and maturity of soul. Rather than holding onto today and prolonging our youth, with all its follies, we should welcome the wisdom and understanding of God's Plan which we gain as we progress through life's troubles to old age and, ultimately, to death. The first two lines of Browning's poem are in direct opposition to FitzGerald's regret "that Youth's sweet-scented Manuscript should close!" (verse 72) The whole first verse reads as follows:
Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made:
Our times are in his hand
Who saith, "A whole I planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!"
In other words, old age is the best part of life, for which youth is a preparation. We must trust God, and not be afraid. In verse 2, the Rabbi decries the follies of youth, whilst at the same time (verse 3) valuing the doubts of youth as part of our development. In verse 4 The Rabbi again directly opposes Omar's "eat, drink and be merry" philosophy:
Poor vaunt of life indeed,
Were man but formed to feed
On joy, to solely seek and find and feast;
Such feasting ended, then
As sure an end to men;
Irks care the crop full bird? Frets doubt the maw-crammed beast?
In other words, life is more than just joy and feasting! (This last line is a good example of the obscurity of Browning as opposed to the directness of FitzGerald – the line means that the sated bird or beast feels nothing beyond its fullness.)
Verses 6 and 7 are again in direct opposition to Omar and his "sorry scheme of things", for here the Rabbi places value on life's problems, because they are part of our developmental process. Paradoxically, they are not problems but valuable lessons:
Then, welcome each rebuff
That turns earth's smoothness rough,
Each sting that bids nor sit nor stand but go!
Be our joys three-parts pain!
Strive, and hold cheap the strain;
Learn, nor account the pang; dare, never grudge the throe!
For thence, – a paradox
Which comforts while it mocks, –
Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:
What I aspired to be,
And was not, comforts me:
A brute I might have been, but would not sink i'the scale.
As the Rabbi says in verse 9, "How good to live and learn!" In verse 10, the Rabbi praises God's plan, which he now realises is perfect. He then thanks God that he is a human being, and expresses his trust in God's purposes. Verses 11 &12 are rather obscure references to life as a mutually supportive mixture of body and soul, and to getting the balance right in meeting the needs of both: "Life may err as gravely by being over-spiritual as over-worldly." (Edward Berdoe, Browning's Message to his Time: his Religion, Philosophy, and Science (1890), p.205.) In verse 13, we return to spiritual development through ageing:
Therefore I summon age
To grant youth's heritage,
Life's struggle having so far reached its term:
Thence shall I pass, approved
A man, for aye removed
From the developed brute; a God though in the germ.
In other words, spiritual development is what distinguishes Man from Beast. Verses 14 to 18 further extol the virtues of the ageing process, to the point where death is seen as the natural culmination of that process: "Thou waitedst age: wait death nor be afraid!" (verse 19) Verses 20 to 25 debate the relative worth of the events in one's life (the virtue of work, for example), arriving at the conclusion (verse 25) that the sum total of those events – both good and bad – measures one's worth in the eyes of God. It is at this point that the Rabbi begins his rebuttal to Omar's Potter, referring to "God, whose wheel the pitcher shaped." Verse 26 reads thus:
Ay, note that Potter's wheel,
That metaphor! and feel
Why time spins fast, why passive lies our clay, –
Thou, to whom fools propound,
When the wine makes its round,
"Since life fleets, all is change; the Past gone, seize to-day."
The last three lines of this verse, of course, are directly opposed to Omar's "drink, and live for today" philosophy. Verses 27 & 28 read:
Fool! All that is, at all,
Lasts ever, past recall;
Earth changes, but thy soul and God stand sure:
What entered into thee,
That was, is, and shall be:
Time's wheel runs back or stops: Potter and clay endure.
He fixed thee 'mid this dance
Of plastic circumstance,
This Present, thou, forsooth, would fain arrest:
Machinery just meant
To give thy soul its bent,
Try thee and turn thee forth, sufficiently impressed.
Verse 27 tells us that our souls and God endure through Time and Change; verse 28 that Time and Change are the mechanism by which our souls are given chance to develop. These ideas are expanded in subsequent verses, the final verse – verse 32 – ending with the notable line: "Let age approve of youth, and death complete the same!"
Rabbi ben Ezra is not easy to follow in a lot of places and so, as stated earlier, it lacks the immediacy and impact of FitzGerald's verses. Obscurity was a common complaint levelled against Browning's poetry generally. For example, the art historian Anna Jameson summed things up nicely when she wrote that whilst she admired "the wondrous wisdom and subtlety of thought" of Browning's poetry, she did not admire his "obscurity in the expression of the thought"! (Clara Thomas, Love and Work Enough: the Life of Anna Jameson (1967), p.211.) Frederick Tennyson was more abrupt – for him Browning posed a series of "Chinese puzzles, trackless labyrinths, unapproachable nebulosities." (Quoted in Tennyson: a Memoir by his Son, vol.1, p.382.) The work by Berdoe, cited above, is useful for understanding the poem, as is the little book Rabbi ben Ezra by Robert Browning, published by George Bell and Sons in 1901, and which contains a short essay about the Rabbi, with a verse by verse explanation of the poem by "E.B." For some useful background on Browning religious beliefs and their emergence in his poetry, see F.E. Halliday, Robert Browning: his Life and Work (1975): eg. for his poem "A Death in the Desert" as a reply to Renan's Life of Jesus, as well as "Rabbi ben Ezra" as a reply to FitzGerald, see p.137-8; for "La Saiziaz" and the issues of life after death, see p.175; and for the Epilogue of "Ferishtah's Fancies" and its chilling line, "What if all be error?", see p.183. As a guide to these poems, Mrs Sutherland Orr's book A Handbook to the Works of Robert Browning (5th edn, 1890) is useful. Also of interest is Hugh Martin's little book, The Faith of Robert Browning (1963), though it is written from a Christian's viewpoint. Browning is also the subject of chapter 3 of Lionel Stevenson's fascinating study Darwin among the Poets (1932).
FitzGerald himself seems not to have read Rabbi ben Ezra, for there is no reference to the poem in his surviving letters. However, he was certainly no fan of Browning. Towards the end of 1868, he wrote to his friend W.F.Pollock:
"I don't suppose I shall see Browning's new Poem (The Ring and the Book); I never could read one of his old ones." (III.114)
Subsequently he did read some extracts of the poem published in The Athenaeum, but found them "dull as well as disagreeable" (III.137). Other descriptors are: "an impudent piece of Cockneyism" (III.139 & 145 for his definition of "Cockneyism" as an "affected and overstrained style"); "another ugly poem" (III.424); and last but not least, "Cockney Rot" (IV.390). In November 1869, FitzGerald wrote to Alfred Tennyson saying that it wasn't just him who couldn't read Browning, but the Cowells, the Thompsons and the Donnes couldn't read him either; that Pollock, who was a great friend of Browning, couldn't read him either, but pretended to have read him just to keep him happy; and that Carlyle thought Browning's "The Ring and the Book" to be "among the absurdest Books ever written by a gifted Man." (III.163) Again, writing to Tennyson in December 1875, FitzGerald wrote:
"I see Browning has another of his uncouth Poems out (The Inn Album): I call him the great Prophet of The Gurgoyle School – in England: in France they have a much greater man, but equally disagreeable to me – Victor Hugo." (III.628)
In fairness, though, in a letter to Cowell written in November 1876, FitzGerald said of Tennyson:
"He still admires Browning, for a great, though unshapen Spirit; and acknowledges Morris, Swinburne and Co., though not displeased, I think, that I do not." (III.724)
See note 54 of the main essay for Morris, Swinburne and Co.
For Browning's part, he appears to have made no reference in his extant letters either to being given a copy of The Rubaiyat by Rossetti in 1861, or to writing Rabbi ben Ezra as a direct response to it.
As regards the former, though there appears to be no documentary evidence that Rossetti gave Browning a copy in that year, it is certainly plausible that he did so. In July 1861 Rossetti and Swinburne had both bought copies specifically to give away to friends (see note 8). Also, following the death of his wife in Florence on June 29th 1861, Browning had left there – about the end of July – and after spending two months in France, had returned to London – so, probably in about October. Browning had certainly known Rossetti socially since the 1850s – in a letter to William Allingham, postmarked December 18th 1856, Rossetti describes the Brownings' London home as "one of my delights – an evening resort where I never felt unhappy" – so there is nothing at all improbable in the idea of Rossetti giving Browning a copy of The Rubaiyat later in 1861, in the first rush of Pre-Raphaelite interest in it.
Not only that, but Browning was profoundly affected by his wife's death, and had beliefs in – or at least hopes of – some sort of afterlife for her. Omar's nihilism, therefore, would have touched a raw nerve in him. "God took her to himself", he wrote in a letter to Miss Haworth dated July 20th 1861 (while he was still in Florence), adding later, "I shall grow, still, I hope." This optimism in the face of grief is entirely in keeping with "Rabbi ben Ezra" as his reply to Omar.
Though Browning himself never stated that "Rabbi ben Ezra" was his direct reply to FitzGerald's Omar, as William Irvine and Park Honan write, in The Book, the Ring and the Poet (1974):
"One feels that the atheism, pessimism, and rampant hedonism of FitzGerald's Omar Khayyam are being countered, if not directly answered, by the religious feeling, optimism, and somewhat abstemious habits of Ben Ezra's Robert Browning; and also that Browning fully intended his poem as a reply to the Persian-Victorian one. The elaborated metaphor of the biblical potter's wheel seems to link the two poems circumstantially." (p.398-9)
More than this, the fact that F. LeRoy Sargent (note 59) was able to interweave the verses of Browning's poem with those of FitzGerald's, so as to create a dialogue in which the optimism of the first replied directly to the nihilism of the second, does seem to imply that Browning was indeed replying to FitzGerald. (The view that Browning was replying directly to FitzGerald did not originate with Irvine and Honan, but goes back to William C. DeVane's book A Browning Handbook (1935), p.260, and earlier still to William Lyon Phelps's book Robert Browning – How to Know Him (1916), p.342. For a good discussion of the issues, see "The Protean Precursor: Browning and Edward FitzGerald" by John Woolford, in Victorian Literature and Culture (1996; vol.24, p.313-332); also "'Ay, note that Potter's Wheel' – Browning and that Metaphor" by S. Viswanathan, in Victorian Poetry (1969; vol.7, p.349-352), which shows that Browning used the Potter Metaphor in his poem "In a Balcony", written in 1853/4, and thus before the publication of FitzGerald's Rubaiyat.)
The only direct reference to FitzGerald in Browning's letters, that I know of, refers not to the writing of Rabbi ben Ezra as a response to The Rubaiyat, but to what Browning called "a repulsive incident" involving FitzGerald. The incident occurred in July 1889, long after FitzGerald's death, when Browning happened to be reading William Aldis Wright's Letters and Literary Remains of Edward FitzGerald (1889), and chanced upon the following paragraph in one of FitzGerald's letters. The letter had been written to W.H.Thompson in July 1861, and referred to Mrs Browning's death and her poem Aurora Leigh:
"Mrs Browning's death is rather a relief to me, I must say. no more Aurora Leighs, thank God! A woman of real Genius, I know; but what is the upshot of it all? She and her Sex had better mind the Kitchen and their Children; and perhaps the Poor; except in such things as little Novels, they only devote themselves to what Men do much better, leaving that which Men do worse or not at all." (Wright, vol.1, p.280-1; Terhune & Terhune II.407.)
As Irvine and Honan write:
"Never having met the misogynist who scribbled the Rubaiyat, Browning confronted in white heat a faceless ghost. He composed a poem Monday, sent it off to The Athenaeum Tuesday, tried to retract it by telegram Wednesday or Thursday, and saw it again – now in irrevocable print – on Saturday, July 13th, 1889." (op.cit. p.513-4)
The poem, "To Edward FitzGerald", reads as follows, and is for once free of Browning's usual obscurities:
I chanced upon a new book yesterday:
I opened it, and, where my finger lay
'Twixt page and uncut page, these words I read –
Some six or seven at most – and learned thereby
That you, FitzGerald, whom by ear and eye
She never knew, "thanked God my wife was dead."
Aye, dead! and were yourself alive, good Fitz,
How to return you thanks would task my wits:
Kicking you seems the common lot of curs –
While more appropriate greeting lends you grace:
Surely to spit there glorifies your face –
Spitting – from lips once sanctified by hers.
Irvine and Honan go on:
"'Like all impulsive actions,' Robert explained to Furnival early the next week, 'I believe I might preferably have left the thing to its proper contempt.' Yet there the poem was. Aldis Wright's apology in the Athenaeum – and some louder cacophony elsewhere – underlined the fact that Browning had called attention to a slight insult by most violently compounding it. With tactful, dignified, and sometimes excruciating letters of apology and self-defence, he managed to console almost everyone mortally offended by his savagery except himself. He had shown to the public a raw, brutal reaction, he had humiliated himself, and probably he knew that in doing so he had humiliated Elizabeth in a way FitzGerald never could." (ib. p.514)
In addition to referring to this incident in the above cited letter to F.J.Furnival, written on July 16th 1889 (which can be seen in full in Thurman L. Hood, The Letters of Robert Browning (1933), p.312-3), Browning also wrote in some detail about it to his brother-in-law George Barrett. In a letter dated October 22nd 1889, he wrote:
"Mere literary criticism, however inept and even malicious, I should have left alone: 'The wild ass o'er her head/stamps with his foot and nought disturbs her sleep:' but to couple that with any satisfaction at the greatest calamity of my life, – no indeed!" (Letters of the Brownings to George Barrett, edited by Paul Landis, with the assistance of Ronald E. Freeman (1958), p.331.)
The "wild ass" is, of course, FitzGerald, in a parody of verse 17 of his first edition of The Rubaiyat.

Love Legends of Punjab
Since long, Punjab has faced and had war with people trying to invade. Hence, life's truth became well established as a reality as is the blood inside the veins. Such visions of life ingrained inside the lovers of the state, a feeling of beauty and periscopic view, along with the ability to lay down life. Such a feeling gave way for two dimensional actions. One side had love which was mortal and was like god's worship. The other side of such love, gave strength to fight and overcome religious prejudices. From such ethos, emerged the beautiful love stories since centuries, which went to gain the status of folk stories and the memories of Sahiban, Sohni, Sassi, Heer and few others were immortalized and were listened and heard from one generation to the next. Memories of such lovers are still fresh among people, as these people died for the sake of love and not that the lovers gave up their lives because of love. These ladies had gone against the social and conventional norms and at the end, never tried to protect their soul or the body and for love, they sacrificed everything.
Such philosophies of love are rooted in Waris Shah's poems, according to whom; love was quintessential of world's existence.
According to him, one needs to thank God for creating love as the worlds root. He was the first one to love and sent prophets as his messengers of love. This was the belief system, which was inherent in the hearts of Punjab women, who had a soul of romanticism, giving them a conviction of righteousness and courage to express. It is because of this reason that there is no story, where a woman is depicted to be silent about her love and ready to die or simply keeping her thoughts within her. Most of the stories of love have the women with volatile nature with characters which are dynamic.
Legends of love from Punjab are filled with contradictions, which existed in the society related to social status, religion, caste and honor, which have acted in keeping lovers at a distance since many centuries. The study of different love stories is to bring into mind the developments across centuries through descriptions of these legends and how these had affected the social and political scenarios of those times. The descriptions were meant to use legends of love as a base of the poetry in Sufism in Punjabi culture. Most of these poems of legends of love have been the centre on which Punjabi poetries have been spun.
Two important points have been put forth by the poets of Sufism of Punjabi love legends by using these characters and various situations. These were the stress on going against social norms, which were established without any basis and the love for God and mankind. In most of his work, the 16th century Sufi poet, Shah Hussain has given examples of Heer Ranjha, such as in a Kafi.
Heer Ranjha
Heer Ranjha story, in the poetic composition form, is a love story of epic prominence and significant place in Punjab's qissa literature by Waris Shah. A young man and woman are the leads of this story.
Sassi Punnu
Sassi, King Adamkhan's daughter belonged to Bhambour, was the protagonist of another romantic story. When she was born, it was predicted by the astrologers that she would prove to be a curse for the prestige of the royal family and therefore there was an order from the king that she be thrown into the Chenab River by tying a taweez on her neck by putting her inside a chest made of wood.
Sohni had another love story, in which she was Tula potter's daughter, living along the River Chenab's banks in Punjab. She had beautiful creativity as she created artistic masterpieces by floral designs on the mugs and Surahis, which were built from the rotating wheels.
Mirza Sahiban
Mirza Sahiban is one of the love stories, which is considered a Punjabi literature treasure. Sahiban was one more soul who was love lord.

Which of the following protein holds two sister chromatids together in metaphase stage?
What happens interphase?
centromeres. … that holds together the two chromatids (the daughter strands of a replicated chromosome). The centromere is the point of attachment of the kinetochore, a structure to which the microtubules of the mitotic spindle become anchored.
The centromere holds the chromatids together. Chromatin is collectively the DNA and proteins. The chromosomes are the structures that assist in the transmission of genetic material from one generation to the next. A karyotype is the display of the chromosomes.
A chromatid is one of two identical halves of a replicated chromosome. … Following DNA replication, the chromosome consists of two identical structures called sister chromatids, which are joined at the centromere.
IT IS SURPRISING: How are chromosomes and plasmids similar and how do they differ?
During prophase, the parent cell chromosomes — which were duplicated during S phase — condense and become thousands of times more compact than they were during interphase. … Cohesin forms rings that hold the sister chromatids together, whereas condensin forms rings that coil the chromosomes into highly compact forms.
During DNA duplication in the S phase, each chromosome is replicated to produce two identical copies, called sister chromatids, that are held together at the centromere by cohesin proteins. Cohesin holds the chromatids together until anaphase II.
Answer b is correct. This is one of the events that occur during anaphase. During anaphase, the cohesin proteins binding the sister chromatids together also break down, and the non-kinetochore spindle fibers lengthen, elongating the cell. Answer a occurs during metaphase, which happens before anaphase.
A centrosome is a cellular structure involved in the process of cell division. … Proteins called microtubules assemble into a spindle between the two centrosomes and help separate the replicated chromosomes into the daughter cells.
Centrosomes are made up of two, barrel-shaped clusters of microtubules called "centrioles" and a complex of proteins that help additional microtubules to form. This complex is also known as the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC), since it helps organize the spindle fibers during mitosis.
IT IS SURPRISING: Are cells produced during meiosis genetically identical or not identical?
The sister chromatids are held together by a structure called the centromere.
Prophase is the first phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells. During prophase, the complex of DNA and proteins contained in the nucleus, known as chromatin, condenses.
A sister chromatid refers to the identical copies (chromatids) formed by the DNA replication of a chromosome, with both copies joined together by a common centromere. … A full set of sister chromatids is created during the synthesis (S) phase of interphase, when all the chromosomes in a cell are replicated.
Cohesin holds sister chromatids together after DNA replication until anaphase when removal of cohesin leads to separation of sister chromatids. The complex forms a ring-like structure and it is believed that sister chromatids are held together by entrapment inside the cohesin ring.
Interphase includes the G1, S, and G2 phases of the cell cycle. During interphase, the cell grows; replicates chromosomes, organelles, and centrioles; and synthesizes components needed for mitosis, including tubulin. Cohesin proteins hold chromatids together at the centromere of each chromosome.
Sister chromatid cohesion depends on cohesin, a tripartite complex that forms ring structures to hold sister chromatids together in mitosis and meiosis.
IT IS SURPRISING: What would be the result of fertilization if egg and sperm were produced by mitosis rather than meiosis?
During interphase, the cell grows and makes a copy of its DNA. During the mitotic (M) phase, the cell separates its DNA into two sets and divides its cytoplasm, forming two new cells.
