The 487th Anniversary of the Confessio Augustana will be celebrated in the 10-43 Room of the Hotel California. The Loyal Order of Un-reconstructed Freaks will distribute the annual dividend of the Breitenfeld Battle Bond and apply the proceeds to the Summer Tour. The itinerary can be cybernetically accessed from the Feather River placers which have been rejuvenated by the massive winter rains and snows. Orate pro nobis. ★

Ad Border

Two solid black borders with the following inscriptions:

The center of the ad is a large grid, laid out in a similar fashion to a sudoku grid. There are nine squares of nine cells each.

The numbers 6 and 9 are placed to the left and right of the grid. 6 and 9 have rotational (radial) symmetry of 180°. The grid itself also has several elements of rotational symmetry.

The shapes formed by the numbers are horizontally, vertically, and rotationally symmetrical.

At first glance, the numbers in the grid do not display any symmetry in value, but the relationships between the numbers do display rotational symmetry.

When rotated 180°, the value differences between adjacent cells remain the same.
