Senate 992.sen.006 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

That same year two remarkable crimes were committed at Rome, one by a senator, the other by the daring of a slave. Domitius Balbus, an ex-praetor, from his prolonged old age, his childlessness and his wealth, was exposed to many a plot. His kinsman, Valerius Fabianus, who was marked out for a career of promotion, forged a will in his name with Vinicius Rufinus and Terentius Lentinus, Roman knights, for his accomplices. These men had associated with them Antonius Primus and Asinius Marcellus. Antonius was a man of ready audacity; Marcellus had the glory of being the great-grandson of Asinius Pollio, and bore a character far from contemptible, except that he thought poverty the greatest of all evils. So Fabianus, with the persons whom I have named and some others less distinguished, executed the will. The crime was proved against them before the Senate, and Fabianus and Antonius with Rufinus and Terentius were condemned under the Cornelian law. Marcellus was saved from punishment rather than from disgrace by the memory of his ancestors and the intercessions of the emperor.

That same day was fatal also to Pompeius Aelianus, a young ex-quaestor, suspected of complicity in the villanies of Fabianus. He was outlawed from Italy, and from Spain, where he was born. Valerius Pontius suffered the same degradation for having indicted the defendants before the praetor to save them from being prosecuted in the court of the city-prefect, purposing meanwhile to defeat justice on some legal pretext and subsequently by collusion. A clause was added to the Senate's decree, that whoever bought or sold such a service was to be just as liable to punishment as if he had been publicly convicted of false accusation.

And he rose up from the judgement-seat and sought to go forth. And the Jews cried out, saying: We know our king, even Caesar and not Jesus. For indeed the wise men brought gifts from the east unto him as unto a king, and when Herod heard from the wise men that a king was born, he sought to slay him, and when his father Joseph knew that, he took him and his mother and they fled into Egypt. And when Herod heard it he destroyed the children of the Hebrews that were born in Bethlehem.

interested 20.int.002 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Here is a passage from Bulgakov's Diary from 1925 (it was confiscated by the secret police in a raid on Bulgakov's apartment):

5 Jan, 1925

Today I went specially to the editorial office of Bezbozhnik [Godless]. It is located in Kozmodemyanovsky Lane, not far from the Mossovet building. I was with MS and he charmed me from the outset.

'Don't your windows get smashed?' he asked the first young lady sitting at a desk.

'What do you mean?' (Perplexed).

'No, they don't' (Hostile).

'What a pity.'

I wanted to kiss him on his Jewish nose. They did not have a full set of the journal for 1923. With pride they announced that they were all sold out. I managed to get 11 issues for 1924. The twelfth has not come out yet. The young lady (if she can so be called) who gave me them, did so reluctantly when she discoverd that I was a private individual.

'I'd rather give them to library.'

It turns out that 70,000 copies of each number are printed, and that all copies are sold . Some indescribable dregs work there, and more come in and go out; there is a small stage with curtains and sets. a holy book of some sort, maybe a Bible lies on a table on the stage. Two heads were bent over this book.

'Like in the synagogue,' said M as we left.

'I'd be interested to know how far this was said specially for me. Of course one ought not to exaggerate, but I have the impression that several people who have read The White Guard now talk to me differently, with a kind of timid, oblique respect.

[...]

In the evening when I leafed through the issues of Bezbozhnik I was shaken. Not by the blasphemy, of course it knows no limits, but it is only an external feature. The heart of the matter lies in the idea, which can be proved with reference to actual documents: Jesus Christ is depicted as a swindler and a scoundrel: the attack is directed at him. It is not hard to see whose work this is. This is a crime like no other.

impressed 33.imp.003 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

1. Most impressed with: As you have repeatedly mentioned in your writings, Mr. Good has a great depth of knowledge. To date, he has more knowledge of UFOolgy than anyone else I’ve heard speak. From more details about Aztec than I was aware to his awareness of a Hawaiian crash in 1944 to the “Mussolini X-File” he is incredibly knowledgeable.

2. What information was I not aware of: Atypically, many of the cases he discusses were new to me. From Sir Peter Hawkley to the Hawaiian crash to the Mussolini X-File to Eugenia Siragusa to underwater bases (in the Mediterranean, the Pacific, and elsewhere) to human-looking aliens to as many as 50 races visiting Earth to the notion that the abductions/hybridizations are more for them than us to there exists a “bad guy” in our Galactic neighborhood.

swimming 229.swi.003 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The late Florence Chadwick, a native San Diegan, was born to the water. At the age of ten, after six years of swimming defeats, she won spectacularly! Competing against senior swimmers in a two-and-a-half-mile night "rough water swim", she finished in fourth place. At eleven she won her first race in a six mile rough water swim in San Diego. Victory was all she needed. She continued to race for nineteen years throughout the United States.

Turning professional in 1945, she joined former teammate, Esther Williams and appeared in the movie, "Bathing Beauty".

In 1948 she began her training to swim the English Channel. Two years later she became the first woman to swim that body of water both ways.

While working as a stockbroker in San Diego, she was the only woman on the Board of the San Diego "Hall of Champions" Board. Her devotion to youth groups and encouragement to young people to fulfill their dreams, heralds her as a true champion.

cease-fires 443.cea.002 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

No, no, we did not feel betrayed, because after all the Americans did help us, and we also knew that they were constantly in a struggle with the Russians regarding cease-fires and giving us the space for us to fight and to turn the situation around to our benefit. But we were angry that, unlike the Russians [to the Arabs], they were not sending immediately large amounts of weapons and ammunition.

narrower mass 9919.nar.002 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

The first such observation was made by an international collaboration working at the DORIS e+e-storage ring at the DESY laboratory in Ham- burg [13]. This state was named PC, and its mass was found to be about 3500 MeV. This same group [14] in collaboration with another group working at DESY later found some evidence for another possible state, which they called X, at about 1800 MeV [15]. At SPEAR, the SLAC-LBL group has identified states with masses of about 3415, 3450 and 3550 MeV, and has also confirmed the existence of the DESY 3500-MeV state. We have used the name x to distinguish the state intermediate in mass between the ψ(3095) and the ~‘(3684). To summarize these new states :
5.2. Three Methods of Search
The three methods we have used at SPEAR to search for these intermediate states are indicated schematically in Fig. 10. To begin with, the storage ring is operated at the center-of-mass energy of 3684 MeV that is required for resonant production of the y’. In the first search method, Fig. 10(a), ~1’ decays to the intermediate state then decays to the ψ through ;+ray emission; and finally the ψ decays, for example, into /‘-/(c. The muon-pair is detected along with one or both of the y-ray photons. This was the method used at DESY to find the 3500-MeV state and also by our group at SLAC to confirm this state [16]. In our apparatus at SPEAR, it will occasionally happen that one of the two ;I-ray photons converts into an e+e- pair before entering the tracking region of the detector. This allows the energy of the converting ;J-ray to be

measured very accurately, and this information can be combined with the measured momenta of the final μ+μ-pair to make a two-fold ambiguous determination of the mass of the intermediate state. The ambiguity arises from the uncertainty in knowing whether the first or the second gamma-rays in the decay cascade have been detected. It can be resolved by accumulating enough events; to determine which assumption results in the narrower mass peak. The peak associated with the second ;J-rays will be Doppler broadened because these photons are emitted from moving sources.) Figure 11 shows the alternate low- and high-mass solutions for a sample of our data [17]. There appears to be clear evidence for states at about 3.45, 3.5 and 3.55 GeV.
The second search method we have used, Fig. 10(b), involves measuring the momenta of the final-state hadrons and reconstructing the mass of the intermediate state [18]. Figure 12 shows two cases in which the effective mass of the final-state hadrons recoils against a missing mass of zero (that is, a :,-ray). In the case where 4 pions are detected, peaks are seen at about 3.4, 3.5 and 3.55 GeV. In contrast, the 2-pion or 2-kaon case shows only one clear peak at 3.4 GeV, with perhaps a hint of something at 3.55 GeV. The appearance of the 2-pion or 2-kaon decay modes indicates that the quantum numbers of the states in question must be either 0++ or 2++.
