My wife gave me this icon some years ago. It clearly uses Bede's description of Paulinus as "a man tall of stature, a little stooping, with black hair and a thin face, a hooked and thin nose, his aspect both venerable and awe-inspiring."
Bede describes the Italian-born Paulinus personally as "a man tall of stature, a little stooping, with black hair and a thin face, a hooked and thin nose, his aspect both venerable and awe-inspiring."
Bede writes that when Paulinus met King Edwin of Northumbria the region was so peaceful that "a woman could carry her new-born babe across the island from sea to sea without any fear of harm." Would that it were always so everywhere.
Today's the feast of St Paulinus, C7 Roman missionary to England. 4th from the left in glass by Leonard Evetts, 1969, at Monkwearmouth, Sunderland, with St Aidan, St Bede, St Peter and St Cuthbert. He would have been the first Archbishop of York, but the pallium did not reach him from Rome in time.
#DilexiTe "A Church that sets no limits to love, that knows no enemies to fight but only men and women to love, is the Church that the world needs today."
#DilexitTe "The Church, like a mother, accompanies those who are walking. Where the world sees threats, she sees children; where walls are built, she builds bridges. She knows that her proclamation of the Gospel is credible only when it is translated into gestures of closeness and welcome. . . .
My classmate and Ketterle were in the Guinness Book of World Records for a while for having achieved the "lowest manmade temperature" in their research on Bose–Einstein condensates.
I went to elementary through high school with a guy who was a grad student of Wolfgang Ketterle at MIT when Ketterle won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2001 and then was a postdoc with Eric Cornell, with whom Ketterle shared that Prize.
‼️ When I started as a grad student at Michigan Chemistry in 1999 the Yaghi group had just arrived from Arizona State. Their lab was right down the hall from mine. Omar was one of the young faculty in my concentration, inorganic chemistry. My apartment-mate joined the Yaghi group. ❤️
I've been spinning this album continually through the day. Currently in the third complete play-through, not counting a track or two (or three) at other times!
By "program" above I meant the album but I'm a big fan of the show as well. I actually sometimes listen twice! My two favorite stations carry it at 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. and I often switch between them at seven to catch the show again if it's particularly good. 🙂
I heard part of this album last evening on Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin. I already had a favorite recording of the Missa Ego flos campi but I realized I'd underestimated this one. I like the program as a whole quite a lot too.
