...several very interesting books on religion and theology just published. "The Religious Thought of the Greeks from Homer to the Triumph of Christianity" takes up the history of Greek religious ideas.

...boats started rowing a 28 stroke, but this was quickly dropped to 24. From the beginning the Juniors pulled into the lead, and at the quarter-mile mark were ahead by a fourth of a length.
