The Gryphonheart dynasty was the Human ruling family of the kingdom of Erathia on the planet of Enroth. The Gryphonheart bloodline stretches as far back as the centuries immediately following the Silence, and its familial crest is the Griffin, which was also emblazoned on Erathia's flag.
Its earliest known ancestor is King Rion Gryphonheart, a Knight who served the Empire of Bracaduun and later founded the Erathian kingdom. The Gryphonheart lineage is also traceable back to Tarnum, whose sister, wholly unbeknownst to the common folk of Antagarich, was Rion's wife. The Gryphonhearts most commonly had red hair, a trait inherited from their maternal ancestor.
With very few exceptions, the Gryphonhearts exclusively ruled Erathia up until its destruction during the Reckoning. It is plausible that Gryphonheart was not originally a surname, but a title given to Rion for his armies' taming of the Griffins following the fall of Bracaduun. The last Gryphonheart ruler of Erathia was Nicolas Gryphonheart, while the last Queen was his daughter, Catherine Ironfist.
The GryphonheartsEdit
Known individuals with Gryphonheart blood include:
- Aaron Gryphonheart IV
- Allison Gryphonheart
- Beatrice Gryphonheart
- Catherine Ironfist, née Gryphonheart
- Nicolai Ironfist
- David Gryphonheart IV
- Mad King Gryphonheart
- Nicolas Gryphonheart
- Niven Gryphonheart
- Rion Gryphonheart (King Gryphonheart the First)
- Terrance Gryphonheart
Niven also had one unnamed brother. Roland Ironfist and Gwenllian were married into the family, and thus did not bear the mark of the bloodline.
Lord Lysander, Waerjak, and Gauldoth were the children of Nicolas Gryphonheart and Iduna, and thus also part of the Gryphonheart lineage. Additionally, Sir Daymarc was a cousin to the family.
Both Sephinroth and Sir Worton made open claims to the public that they were of Gryphonheart blood, but their claims were later refuted as avarice.

Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine announced last week they were ending a surgical training program that used live animals. The Baltimore Sun reveals the four session educational modules were one of two programs in the United States. It utilized anesthetized live animal swine that was said to have been popular among third and fourth semester students.
While Hopkins officials maintained the remaining four-session surgical training course that used anesthetized swine was popular among third and fourth year students, they said it was no longer essential to train "the best doctors in the world."
"The latest task force to examine the pros and the cons and the ethics decided that the bar has to be pretty high to justify doing this," said Audrey Huang, a Hopkins spokeswoman. "While students were huge fans of the course it felt like it wasn't absolutely necessary."
On prior occasions Johns Hopkins was the subject of an intimidation campaign on the part of the animal rights group Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM). The Baltimore Sun reported August of 2014 described some of PRCM's tactics to humiliate and also intimidate Johns Hopkins into giving in:
About two dozen doctors and others held signs outside Johns Hopkins Hospital reading "Baltimore Deserves Better" and "End Animal Labs."
The news article also points out that PCRM also petitioned the Maryland state prosecutors to bring up the school on animal abuse charges. Fortunately, the Maryland State Attorney out of Baltimore rejected the request.
It is morally wrong to treat animals cruelly. But this effort on the part of the so-called Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is another attempt to deny humans the ability to have excellent surgeons who have hands-on experience. PCRM used intimidation and slander tactics in order to force Johns Hopkins to end their live animal surgery program since they knew they could not defend their position rationally. Admittedly there are alternatives to using live animals for surgical trainings but they may not be as effective. The PCRM's campaign is not only grounded in their hatred of human life but is also a means to suppress medical knowledge. Consequently, it results in making it easier to kill people off since surgeons would lack hands-on experience. It is not about saving animals from alleged cruelty.
Meantime, the University of Tennessee Health Science Center's College of Medicine in Chattanooga is the sole medical school in the U.S. and Canada that uses live animals in its surgical training program. It is not a matter if live animals should be used in medical experiments or training doctors but if we as humans have a right to do it. It is this site owner's hope contention that we do, the University of Tennessee coninues to use live animals to train surgeons if they deem it appropriate and resists any attempts to intimidate them into halting the prartice.

Observation Status Infographic. Dr. Mercola Says Annual Physicals May Do More Harm Than Good (Video) By Dr Mercola Mercola.com America spends more per capita on health care than any other developed nation, yet Americans are among the sickest citizens of the developed world, ranking only 50th worldwide for life expectancy.Americans also rank near the bottom for everything from infant mortality to obesity, heart disease, and disability.1 A growing number of studies suggest that part of the problem is actually excessive medical intervention.Americans are receiving — and paying for — an enormous amount of unnecessary and/or ineffective medical tests and treatments.According to a report by the Institute of Medicine, approximately 30 percent of all medical procedures, tests, and medications may be unnecessary, at a cost of more than $750 billion a year.2The worst part is that this overtreatment is making Americans sicker rather than healthier.

Health Insurance is for Everyone. Health Insurance is for Everyone Posted by Fareed Zakaria on March 19, 2012 · Leave a Comment By Fareed Zakaria Two years ago, Barack Obama signed into law the most comprehensive reform of American health care since Medicare.
Most of its provisions haven't been implemented yet. Woman in debunked Obamacare horror story finally speaks ... to Fox News. The subject of the latest debunked Obamacare horror story is finally talking, and of course it's to Fox News.
Julie Boonstra is a Michigan resident with leukemia, and she appeared in an Americans For Prosperity ad against Democratic Senate candidate Rep. Gary Peters, saying that Obamacare made her cancer treatment unaffordable because of out of pocket spending. Subsequent fact checking, though, found that her monthly premium payments were essentially cut in half, and the limits the law imposes on out of pocket expenses means that at worse, she'd break even between those costs and her premium saving. No, Obamacare Doesn't Deserve Credit for Slowing the Growth of Health Spending. Whitehouse.govFor the fourth year in a row, Medicare's actuaries reported that total national health spending—encompassing public and private payers—grew modestly.
In 2012, total national health spending just 3.7 percent, with the share of the economy devoted to health spending falling slightly from 17.3 percent down to 17.2 percent. National health spending still grew, in other words, but the economy grew faster. The White House spin, as in previous years, is that Obamacare deserves credit for restraining the nation's health spending growth. Why the U.S. should treat health care like a utility, not a market. Reprinted from dailykos.com by Jon Perr (image by see image) On January 1, 2014, the Affordable Care Act went fully into effect.
But for all of the furious fighting over the law these past five years, Obamacare was always an evolutionary reform grafted onto the existing American health care system. The Medicaid public insurance program has been extended to roughly four million lower income Americans so far. No, Obamacare Won't Reduce Emergency Room Usage. Stockvault.netSupporters of Obamacare have long pitched the law as a way to address emergency room crowding caused by lack of health coverage.
Individuals without health coverage, the thinking goes, have no place to turn when they need medical attention, and as a result they head to the emergency room. The Shocking Truth About Who Wrote Obamacare. (Before It's News) Dave Hodges December 2, 2013 The Common Sense Show The Shocking Truth About Who Wrote Obamacare "You know how I define the economic & social classes in this country?
Obama administration knew millions could not keep their health insurance. Larry Downing / Reuters President Barack Obama walks out to deliver remarks about the Affordable Care Act in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington on Oct. 1, 2013. By Lisa Myers and Hannah Rappleye, NBC News President Obama repeatedly assured Americans that after the Affordable Care Act became law, people who liked their health insurance would be able to keep it. But millions of Americans are getting or are about to get cancellation letters for their health insurance under Obamacare, say experts, and the Obama administration has known that for at least three years. Four sources deeply involved in the Affordable Care Act tell NBC News that 50 to 75 percent of the 14 million consumers who buy their insurance individually can expect to receive a "cancellation" letter or the equivalent over the next year because their existing policies don't meet the standards mandated by the new health care law.
None of this should come as a shock to the Obama administration. 12 Facts About The Epic Obamacare Launch Train Wreck That Every American Should Know. Micheal Snyder | Activistpost | Oct 11th 2013.

Multistakeholder Partnerships (MSP) could contribute to addressing some of the complex and multi-dimensional issues related to food security and nutrition. Addressing food insecurity and undernutrition requires cross-sectoral and holistic approaches and collaborations of various state and non-state actors. In recognising this as a key issue related to Sustainable Development Goal 17: Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development, the United Nations Committee on World Food Security (CFS) requested the High-Level Panel of Experts (HLPE) to produce a report on"Multistakeholder Partnerships to Finance and Improve Food Security and Nutrition in the Framework of the 2030 Agenda". The team comprised of 15 internationally recognized experts in a variety of food security and nutrition related fields. The report aims to help states and non-state actors to improve Multi-stakeholder Partnerships (MSP) in realizing the right to adequate food by strengthening inclusiveness, accountability, transparency, reflexivity and efficiency.
While data and evidence is limited on the suitability, benefits and limitations of MSPs' as a mechanism for financing and improving FSN, the report tries to provide clarity on the definitions and also offers some observations on the main challenges facing MSPs, noting that MSPs do not replace the need for public investment. It provides suggestions on how governments and non-state actors can improve the performance of existing MSPs.
FANRPAN is a contributor to the report.

There are number of reasons the name Joan Foster rings familiar with many Sault and area residents.
She's a teacher, and actor, a writer, a volunteer, and an avid supporter of the local arts and theatre community.
Through her decades of involvement with the Arts Council of Sault Ste. Marie and District, Foster served as a board member, has chaired numerous fundraising initiatives, and was co-founder of the Over the Rainbow Children's Entertainment Series.
She has been involved – both on stage and behind the scenes – with the Sault Theatre Workshop and the Musical Comedy Guild, co-moderated World Religion Day, helped organize the Business and Professional Women's Club Sault Ste. Marie Homecoming Event, and named the Spirits Rising glass and steel structure that adorns our waterfront boardwalk.
What many may not be aware of is Foster is also a seasoned adventurer who's survived cancer.
At 78 years old, Foster has seen her fair share of the planet, climbing mountains, rafting wild rivers, and trekking through the tundra of the Canadian Arctic.
She's acquired a few endearing nicknames along the way, including 'Saint Joan of the Lost Soles' after her shoes melted climbing Mount Etna (an active volcano) and 'Bootless Joan' after jagged Arctic rocks sliced her boots apart in Northern Canada.
But conquering both lung and breast cancer and the philanthropy that followed may be her greatest achievement.
For the last ten years in an effort to bring comfort to cancer patients and as a means of raising funds for the Sault Area Hospital Foundation (SAHF), Foster has been quietly selling The Cup of Comfort.
At $10 each, the gift package consists of a mug, tea bags, candies, and a poem Foster wrote to inspire those suffering through treatment.
This cup is filled with comfort for days you're feeling blue
It's also full of pride and joy for all the things you do
Many days as life goes by, we think we'll not get through
The sorrows, fears for family, friends, our own afflictions too
We feel alone when an illness strikes, we hide our pain from view
We put on such a happy face, we fool ourselves and you
But friends have ways of listening to voices filled with pain
They sooth our spirits and fill our hearts with hope again
To date, Foster has raised just over $17,000 for the SAHF through sales of her Cup of Comfort.
Health awareness is also crucial to Foster, who admits to missteps as she underwent cancer treatment.
After having half of her left lung removed in 2003, she opted out of radiation treatment, something she feels contributed to her cancer's return a few years later.
"I thought radiation would be the worst part about having any kind of cancer. I didn't want to end up worse off," she said. "I regret that because I think that's one of the reasons I developed breast cancer."
"I think the biggest factor in fighting cancer and conquering it is being aware of your body and changes that occur. If you have a question or are feeling different, go to the doctor."
She also stressed the importance of ensuring your doctors and specialists properly and fully communicate with one another.
Now in retirement, Foster has sold her Queen Street home and is preparing to move into the Finnish Rest home.
All proceeds from the sale of household items and her massive collection of art will contribute to her $20,000 donation goal to the SAHF.
Anyone interested in acquiring a piece from her art collection is welcome to contact Foster at 705-759-8811.
She has donated a number of her antiques to the Sault Theatre Workshop and contributes regularly to the Group Health Centre's Dr. Hui Lee Trust Fund.
And before even moving in, Foster has made arrangements for a special library at the Finnish Rest Home for residents and their grandchildren to enjoy.
During her time as a teacher, Foster found a Pierre Babin quote that she says continues to inspire her:
If you are not living for human freedom; if you are not fighting for justice; if you are not historically involved, you have nothing to say.
"The best prayer to me is helping others or doing something for someone else. That's the best prayer that I find I can offer," Foster said.
"I can kneel down and recite something, but that just becomes recital because your mind wonders. But if you're actually physically doing something to help someone, then that's praying to me. I'm not good on my knees, but I'm good at working."
"I'm not Donald Trump. I don't have millions because I still pay taxes, so I just give what I can," she joked.

Karat spelled with a "K" refers to the breakdown of pure gold into a gold alloy unlike Carat spelled with a "C" that refers to the weight of a gemstone or diamond. Gold jewelry is usually stamped with a # following the "k" in a non-intrusive spot. When determining the karat that you want to get for your engagement or wedding rings the use of the jewelry is very important. For a charm on a necklace or earrings a high karat gold would be beautiful, and damage from daily use would be of very little concern. A ring on the other hand has to deal with a lot of wear and tear. It gets knocked, rubs against your fingers and can even be bent during your daily activities.
10k- would very hard, endure a lot of wear and tear but be a very light gold colour
14k- would be hard, endure more wear and tear then 10k and be a light gold colour
18k-Would be hard, endure wear and tear and be a rich gold colour
24k-Would be soft, not endure a lot of wear and tear(pure gold)
(some other countries use different alloys which produces different karats but these are the most common in Canada)
As some of my school training was as a Goldsmith, I have opinions about the Karat that is best for wedding rings and engagement rings. I recommend that my clients order their wedding rings in 18K gold. Alternatively, 14k gold can be used if you don't mind a lighter colour. This will ensure that your rings have a rich gold colour and are a little harder so that they can endure years of daily wear and tear that rings go through. If either the bride or groom's job involves manual labour with their hands, I would certainly recommend a lower karat as it would be able to withstand even more wear and tear.

Right ventricular and inferior-posterior myocardial infarctions in four patients were complicated by low-output syndrome unresponsive to increasing intravascular volume. Ventricular pacing was started because of bradyarrhythmias, but failed to increase cardiac output; atrial pacing at identical rates resulted in dramatic increases in cardiac output. The importance of atrial contribution to ventricular function, as well as the role of the pericardium in this clinical setting, are discussed. In treating right ventricular myocardial infarction, atrial or atrioventricular sequential cardiac pacing may be preferable to ventricular pacing.

Monday, Feb. 6 – Funny how everything appears really bleak at home when you've been spending your days in a literal bubble decorated with exotic plants, waterfalls, and strings upon strings of Christmas lights. A sad side effect of vacation. (Luckily, the Drab at Home effect has no effect on people. The boys and the dog look as good to me as ever. :))
Keeping on with the Month of Roses project at Chemist in the Bottle, SOTD was L'Arte di Gucci. The CEO did laundry all day yesterday, but there is STILL a large pile of dirty clothes in the laundry room.
Gaze came home by himself after track practice. "Where's your brother?" I asked him, confused.
"He's at a MACC [academic challenge] match. Auburn HS. Should be home by 8 or so."
"Wait, there was MACC and you didn't go?" Gaze is captain of the Social Studies team.
"Needed to go to track because we have the conference meet on Wednesday. Besides, I wanted to see how they would do without me."
As it turned out, they LOST. Boo. Taz is going to have to step up his MACC game next year.
Tuesday, Feb. 7 – Like yesterday, it's warmer than it should be for February, in the upper 50sF. This is wrong in all kindsa ways. The CEO can cheer about warmer weather all he likes, but I want my winter! Testing Neela Vermeire Rahele this morning, roses later. (Rahele review later, too.) SOTE was Caron Parfum Sacre. So good.
My dad has been in the hospital with breathing difficulties. As it turns out, it's just bronchitis, but he needed some breathing treatments and heavy-duty meds before they let him go home. Now Mom is sick too. Boo.
Wednesday, Feb. 8 – Warm again. Bleah. At least the kids can go outside to warm up before their races at the track meet today (yeah, they CALL it Indoor Track, but there isn't enough room to warm up inside, so you just hope it's not snowing). SOTD was Iris Poudre.
The CEO went to the meet to cheer on the boys. Our teams did unexpectedly well, the girls' team finishing third by only six points (two points behind the runner-up) and the boys' team coming in second by one point. ONE. Gaze finished 5th in the 3200M, right behind teammates finishing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th; he'll go on to the regional meet. Taz finished 8th, not high enough to advance, but he cut his time from last week almost nine seconds, so we're super proud of that. He barely qualified for conference with a time of 11 minutes 22.77 seconds. His new PR is 11:13.88, go Taz!
They didn't get home until late, after 1 a.m., poor guys.
Thursday, Feb. 9 – The rain that started last night dried up, but the wind has not abated and it is COLD. This really stinks, because if we'd gotten the cold front before the precipitation, it would have been snow. Grr. Annnnnyway, SOTD is Lolita Lempicka Eau de Minuit, from that bottle I got in Nashville last week. Nice.
SOTE wound up being a dab or two of Tauer Une Rose Chypree, from a sample I've had, like… at least seven years. I think it's going off; it smells a bit like used cooking oil. I never needed any more than a sample of URC because it's such a powerhouse and I don't, after all, love it. I just like it. But I think this particular sample, which I've used and enjoyed probably a dozen or more times already, should probably be jettisoned.
Friday, Feb. 10 – Had conferences with the boys' teachers for this semester, except Taz' drama teacher. It's okay, I'll catch up with Mr. McCoy later – he was holding rehearsals for the "Love the Bus" bus-safety presentation that the drama class puts on for the elementary school students in the county. The script changes every year, but it's meant to be a fun and funny reminder of how to be safe on and around school buses, and what to do in emergencies. Gaze is doing well. So is Taz, except that nobody can read his handwriting. This is a perennial issue. I think his brain works faster than his hand can write. SOTD was the pleasant, pretty Cuir de Lancome.
Bookworm did not get rain in New Haven. Bookworm got snow. Here is a picture of her, at left in the turquoise and gray jacket, in the middle of a friendly snowball fight.
Saturday, Feb. 11 – Went to a gathering of church ladies (nice ones!) for a cupcake-decorating event. That was fun. We didn't even eat the cupcakes until we were all finished. 🙂 SOTD was again Lolita Lempicka Eau de Minuit, probably too much of it, but it was okay with all the sugar in the air. It's warm again. Taz is sick: stuffy nose, headache, fever. He's staying in his room and reading.
My refurbished wind chimes (Grace Notes Earthsong Medium, tuned to a mellow pentatonic scale – click here to listen) came home yesterday, all shined up and repaired! The CEO gave them to me twelve years ago, and they had needed repair. I'm glad to have them back. When Gaze and I took them out of the box and they rang out in the house, Hunter started singing with them. He's so funny!
Sunday, Feb. 12 – Taz is better today. The bottle of Le Temps d'une Fete was calling to me, and it's still warm, so I got a good three spritzes in. I'm going to be so sad when it's all gone.

Year of the Rooster
The 10th Chinese Zodiac Sign
People born in a year of the Rooster are very observant. Hardworking, resourceful, courageous, and talented, Roosters are very confident in themselves.
Roosters are always active, amusing, and popular within a crowd. Roosters are talkative, outspoken, frank, open, honest, and loyal individuals. They like to be the center of attention and always appear attractive and beautiful.
Roosters are happiest when they are surrounded by others, whether at a party or just a social gathering. They enjoy the spotlight and will exhibit their charm on any occasion.
Roosters expect others to listen to them while they speak, and can become agitated if they don't. Vain and boastful, Roosters like to brag about themselves and their accomplishments.
Their behavior of continually seeking the unwavering attention of others annoys people around them at times.
Roosters are loyal and they make devoted friends. They always keep their promises and are always true to their word. Sensitive individuals may find it hard to get along well with Roosters, because they always brag about themselves and their accomplishments, which may make others uncomfortable.
The Rooster's bossiness and honest "tell it like it is" approach doesn't work well with sensitive individuals. Roosters need to partner with those who are tough-skinned. They're the individuals most capable of realizing that beneath the tough exteriors are huge, caring hearts overflowing with love.
The following are deemed lucky for those born in a Rooster year:

Enjoyed this with friends at Issac Newton's in Newtown, PA. On tap, served a chilled (sigh) shaker. Deep golden, brilliant, clear and delicious. Nice white head dissipates fairly quickly. Some lacing. All about the hops — delicious flowery aroma and bitter finish that is a little bit sour and sweet. Would be delicious with a Szechuan stir fry or with Vietnamese chile dumplings. Dark flavor, roasty, and an exemplar of the style. I really really want to try some of the bigger brews by RR.

GRC stands for governance, risk management, compliance. GRC software allows companies subject to regulations to automate and manage their internal operations by integrating all the components into a singular platform. The GRC software unit then preforms internal audits and issues regulatory compliance notifications to govern over the participating entity.
There's a hushed undercurrent sweeping through the compliance and risk management landscape, challenging our IT infrastructure and dismantling the silos we thought kept initial investments low.
As it turns out, our new data access came with a duality: greater breadth of information, greater number of security challenges. When you introduce modular platforms to accurately and consistently measure compliance channels, you begin thinking of GRC as a neighborhood, rather than a single factory.
The technological web keeps growing, and there is a tendency for governance, risk assessment, and compliance projects to pivot on a case-by-case basis, layering tools rather than integrating them.
Integrated Risk Management (IRM), a Misnomer for Salvaged GRC
What was the worst thing to ever happen to GRC? Segmenting out its moving parts, and letting them fend for themselves. We mistakenly began looking at governance, risk, and compliance as three, different schools of thought.
We needed a scapegoat for infrastructural failures, and this is why we've abandoned conventional GRC solutions for Integrated Risk Management (IRM). While much of the industry considers this a paradigm shift, it is more of a revitalization.
IRM is wrongfully identified as a new discipline. In reality, GRC is simply going through a rebranding after a period of bad press. Yes, vendors are leveling their GRC neighborhoods, but they are collecting all the structural elements from the rubble to build their IRM powerhouses.
You should think of IRM as a derivative of GRC, rather than a novelty.
A custom, integrated platform rules against modular GRC investments. One-off, need-driven strategies are facing extinction. We think of IRM as a call to action, a call for more strategic and holistic GRC platforms.
Demystifying Your Decision-Making Process
What does this mean for you? Your strategy may be nearsighted. IRM encourages companies to zoom out, thinking beyond current needs to address the governance, compliance, and risk of tomorrow.
Whether you are just now allocating the resources to build a GRC platform or redirecting a legacy system to reflect the IRM ideology, contextualize the solutions using your stack of business objectives—what status do you hope to achieve and what is the status now?
GRC platforms bring together many moving parts, implementing an integrated framework to monitor and coordinate data from an array of sources.
If you truly want to demystify the decision-making process, demystify your GRC strategy.
Let's restore interlinkage. Risk dictates governance, and governance dictates compliance, and so on. If security is your number one concern, and you take the steps to engineer a one-dimensional capability to address those needs, you disadvantage yourself on the compliance front and create a software monologue no other data channel can draw from.
You know this:
You need a solution to identify and mitigate risk
Failure to comply attracts litigation
Security is a constant pain point
Governance uses auditing as a crutch
IT silos plague ROI
IRM covers all fronts, building bridges between GRC subcultures to covert monologues to dialogue. There is no value in isolated systems, especially if we consider how frenetic our data needs are and how next-generation technologies will impact those data needs.
An open circuit automates the processes you know you need, and issues powerful analytics to circumvent vulnerabilities. Through IRM, you build an all-seeing, all-knowing dashboard where no dimension of the GRC umbrella goes neglected.
Understanding the Organization
Don't let your takeaway be that you need to implement a GRC technology platform as soon as possible. Let your takeaway be to contextualize integrated GRC. Custom GRC software is most effective when it is built to conquer a specific set of pain points.
What we mean by that-evaluate your current costs to justify your investment. The cost of building a GRC platform is an serious undertaking, factoring in the hardware, the software development, and the implementation services.
The payoff is tenfold your investment; you automate data aggregation and access reporting modules, you decrease your auditing budget, and inevitably you encounter a drop in incidents and fines.
The acuter your preexisting challenges are, the quicker you will turn a favorable ROI. Articulating those challenges prior to development helps you form a business case for implementation.
We believe there is a nagging and unprecedented imperative for custom, integrated GRC software platforms, and the sooner you realize that everything connects to everything else, the sooner you can conquer software silos once and for all.

Authorized Idea
As someone who has been a critic of Obamacare since its early days as a campaign proposal, I'd obviously love for the law to be totally repealed. In anybody year, the precise matters to be studied in Authorized Theory will be drawn from jurisprudence; law, society and culture; authority, politics and rule of regulation; or legislation, morality and ethics. Essential questions are also included in every chapter, to encourage students to think analytically in regards to the regulation and authorized principle, and the quite a few debates that it generates.
Some philosophers used to contend that positivism was the theory that held that there was "no obligatory connection" between regulation and morality; but influential modern positivists—including Joseph Raz, John Gardner, and Leslie Green—reject that view.
Thus, conceptual theories of legislation have historically been divided into two most important classes: these like pure regulation authorized principle that affirm there is a conceptual relation between regulation and morality and people like legal positivism that deny such a relation.
In fact, as Brian Bix (1999) factors out, the argument does little work for Austin as a result of it's always attainable for a court docket to enforce a regulation against an individual that does not fulfill Austin's personal principle of legal validity.

Some simple ideas to amuse your toddlers with things that you can find at home. Get away from paying too much money for toys.
Have you ever really sat and thought about the money that you have invested in toys to keep your ever-energetic toddler amused only to have them thrown in the corner of the cupboard after a few hours of play? Toddlers may need constant stimulation, but they don't always need exorbitantly priced toys.
Quite often you can find things around the home that will amuse them for endless hours, and if they don't, well you haven't wasted a lot of money and you have spent some quality time with your child. And after all, what's more important anyway?
Try these easy to make toddler toys!
Everyone knows about the appeal of empty cardboard boxes! Take it a step further and let the box evolve into a great toddler car. Sit the box down, cut out the top and bottom so that all you have is the four sides. Punch holes on either side of the front and rear and attach some thick string front to back. This will form your shoulder straps. You may need to adjust the straps depending on the height of your child.
Next, pull out some paper plates or construction paper cut into circles and attach them to the sides as wheels and one more for the steering wheel. Now let the kids get to work decorating it with racing stripes, wipers and horns. See what you can find around the house to accessorize. When you are done you have a fantastic homemade toy car that will sure to provide lots of laughs! The best thing is, when they outgrow it - get a bigger box!
There is a big market out there today for personalizing just about anything. You have no doubt seen the various books out there that add your child's name into the story. Great idea, but you can just as easily do it yourself. Why not make the book from scratch. Sit down with your toddler and tell a story together. Record the silly story and draw some pictures together. Bind it together using a hole punch and string and their you have it! If the story included your child, then add a photo. Make sure you read it often, it's sure to be a hit.
Toddlers love to be involved in dramatic play. See what it is that interests them and set about making some themed boxes for the appropriate time. Find a cardboard box or an old hat box and decorate it with what will be found inside.
For instance, your child could be into hairdressing so fill the box with an old hairdryer (cord removed), brushes, rollers, caps and more. If they like to play kitchen then fill it with cooking utensils, bowls and plates etc. For a tool kit you could find some little tools at your local dollar shop. The possibilities are endless and when the mood strikes it is great to pull down a box with all the relevant props!
You can find lots of little things to make a dolls house. Shoeboxes are great little houses for peg people and larger boxes are great for bigger dolls. Stand the box on its side and rest it against a wall. Here you have a great little house. Paint the outside a nice appealing color and attach some little fabric swatches as curtains to the cut out windows. In a larger box, a shoebox will suffice as a little bed and lots of items around the kitchen can be used. Use your imagination!
Fill your little house with peg people. You can find little pegs at your local craft store and also little furniture than you can paint yourself.
Everyone loves a good cubby house, especially toddlers who love to find a little space to get away from it all. Be your own engineer and bring out the sheets, boxes, parachutes, towels or whatever else you can find that will provide a little shelter.
Next, construct your cubby and fill it with stuffed toys or books. Often simply changing the environment provides the best amusement!
Remember, just look around your house for things that you can use to amuse your toddler. They love to do grown up things in a childlike way.

Woody Endless Straight - 3 Units
by Jason Miller
Jason Miller's Endless collection takes its inspiration from 1970s Super-graphics. After the reductionist intentions of modernism faded, some architects began to use large-scale graphic elements to define space. Graphic design became architecture; Endless was designed in the same spirit. Cylindrical sections and corner units allow Endless to be custom-configured as an architectural element.

FIRST PAGES OF MY NOVEL "MURDER UNMASKED" please give me some feedback.
MURDER UNMASKED L TAYLOR Copyright L Taylor2018
She arrived on the coach in good time and soon found her way to the B and B booked over a year ago. Whitby was popular all year round now and it was getting even harder to book anywhere during the Gothic Week festival.
It didn't take long to unpack her small valise and the landlady had offered an iron and ironing board for her outfit which naturally had creased during the journey from Sussex. She had smiled knowingly at her offer.
She hung the black hooded cloak on the first available hanger, then her black chiffon dress with sequins and red ribbons sewn so strategically at shoulders, elbow and hemline. Maybe the creases would drop out a little as this October was a mild one and the room small and stuffy.
Sitting at the 40's style dressing table, with its wooden back to the window, she gazed out onto the narrow streets. This upper room overlooked the red roofed houses that snuggled, shoulder to shoulder, winding their bodies down along the narrow lanes.
First she applied the face cream, then the white powder. Next she took out her kohl crayons and with a steady, experienced hand drew boldly around her eyes, letting drawn eyelashes wander elongated down both cheek bones, and then drew upper lashes to touch her chalk white brow.
She smiled to herself as she added orange from her paint box to cover her real eyebrows to create comically curved new ones. Next she put on the long, wavy black wig. The soft velvet hat would be pinned on top.
Scarlet red lip paint enlarged her pale thin lips six fold. She sat back and stared at this new image. She would blend easily in the crowd and follow them to the chosen pub that evening. He would be there, downing a pint or so after his performance.
Taking her silver neck chains and jangling bracelets out of her hold-all, she placed them neatly on the dresser and tried the effect of the chains over the hanging dress. She had brought an enormous crucifix with a chain long enough to cover the red bodice and that would go on last thing. It was looking good.
Now she was almost ready. Almost ready to join the crowd, her cunning plan buzzing in her head. She smiled at her image in the mirror and taking out those talon-like plastic nails, checked that the black varnish had not chipped. They would fix last thing.
She had arrived. It would work. She could not fail. She slipped the special sheathed knife down the side of her laced leather boot.
She edged her way forcibly to the front of the crowd and watched him up on the platform as he gyrated to his own music like one possessed. She could not see his contorted face as he lowered his head to sing, his voice still deep and husky. His ginger hair hung darkened at the tips with perspiration, his washed out blue jeans hung from his narrow hips and small, flat buttocks. He had not changed a bit. His sort didn't, couldn't and for that reason she was even surer of what had to be done.
She watched the crowd swaying, sitting down, lying on the dampening grass; observed how the drug pushers brushed their tightly clutched hands against an open, eager hand, recognising this scene only too well. Glastonbury was just the same.
As he bowed to their applause, she crept behind the platform No one noticed her particularly, she looked as grotesque as all the rest and wasn't she just another admirer of his, another groupie keen for a 'quickie' if he wanted it. But he had moved off as she anticipated, heading for the pub.
She drew the thin, surgical knife wrapped in leather and tested it against a fallen branch. It was sharper than any razor and would quicken the deed: a wonderful find from a set for sale on the Portobello Road.
She smiled at the drummer as he started to clear away some of the kit, unplugging speakers and detaching endless wires.
The night sky was clear with a touch of pink. It would be another fine day tomorrow. Stars twinkled teasingly down. What bliss it would be, to dispatch him on a night like this!
She waited until the crowd had also moved on; some towards the pub, impatient others to the trees to lie under them or copulate against them. Later others would make their way to the grave yard clutching beer bottles and hoping they would not be moved on or barred by the local constabulary watch. She knew he would not venture there of his own accord. She smiled at the thought of his being laid there for good soon enough!
The pub was heaving with people and some revelers who had come to make mocking comments on the Goths but the landlord would keep control. He knew what to expect at each festival. The Goths would merely laugh back at the scoffing set, dismissing their ignorance. Luck was on her side; she edged her way past a vacated table that had two beer glasses left behind. There was enough beer left in both for her to quickly top up one glass and clutch it as her own. She blended in so well. It was all going so smoothly.
Cigarette smoke drifted in from the people standing about outside and she recognised the aroma as not nicotine alone.
He was making his way towards the Gents. She left the glass on another table, weaved her way through the pressing crowd and headed towards the Ladies. There were but two doors and a young girl Goth dressed totally in blood red came out as she approached. She saw he had merely closed his door to and she could see his back through the gap as he started to pee into the bowl. Silent as the grave, she slipped in behind him, then shut the door gently to. His zip still open, his hand holding his member, he turned his head a little, sensing someone behind him and opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't cry out, merely made a gurgling sound in his throat. She hardly needed to plunge the knife as it slipped in so easily like cutting into butter. She drove it in knowing exactly the quickest fatal spot. She had practiced so often on discarded models when she worked cleaning in theatre at the hospital, making out she wanted to train as a nurse and maybe become a surgeon herself one day.
There was a look of startled horror in his bulging eyes as Red Tommy Guitar fell forward against the white tiles. His body thudded as he tumbled down beside the stained bowl. He made a final gurgling sound, his neck and head bent under him. She stood still and listened.
Not a sound outside the door but a flush from the Ladies toilet next to her. She waited. The door leading back into the back of the saloon creaked as it was opened and closed. Her heart galloped in her breast with elation. Job done! She wiped the knife against the toilet roll hanging on a holder. It was too fine to hold much blood. She slipped the leather cover that was tucked into her bodice back over it and blew it a kiss as she returned it to her boot. Wonderful! Alone again, she slipped the indicator to read 'Engaged' before pulling the lavatory door to behind her.
Back at the B and B she sat at the dressing table, she took out the cold cream and cleansed her face until it shone. She grinned and giggled back at her own reflection. It had been so easy!
She removed the jewelry, folded away the dress, wig, and then took off her nails. Damn, she had lost one of them! A small valise was ample for all the Goth gear and the hold-all would take anything else. Tomorrow she would be dressed back into jeans and jumper and another short, page boy styled wig.
She could hardly sleep with anticipation. Tomorrow first light, which wasn't so far off, she would go for a long walk up over the cliffs and toss the small valise to join the raging sea. She listened to the sweet sound of sirens whining their way to more sorrow and pain. His pain this time and hers, whoever she was… and soon that replica, that boy of his. She'd read about them in some music magazine. She looked through the small, latch window of her room as their lights flashed frantically down the road towards the pub and someone else's shocking discovery there.
Paul_Lulu AdminOverall I really liked this. I actually think you could be even a more mysterious with some of the details to keep me guessing a bit more.
As to the writing, there are some stilted sentences - "She had practiced so often on discarded models when she worked cleaning in theatre at the hospital, making out she wanted to train as a nurse and maybe become a surgeon herself one day." - for example. These contrast with some very good sentences, so I would focus initially on redesigning some of those sentences to maintain the quick pace of the piece.
Another far too long to read, I'm afraid to say. But I will read some.
She arrived on the coach in good time
Is this the very start?
and soon found her way to the B and B booked over a year ago.
I would want more detail in regard to what she sees between the coach and the B&B.
Whitby was popular all year round now
Should "was" not be "Is"? Whitby has always been popular, but also in Winter?
and it was getting even harder to book anywhere during the Gothic Week festival.
I know what that is, and why there is one, but how many readers would? Some explanation may be due.
It didn't take long to unpack her small valise
Why use that word? It sounds a tad pretentious. Why not just say it's a small bag?
and the landlady had offered an iron and ironing board for her outfit which naturally had creased during the journey from Sussex.
You need far more fill-in. Detail. What's her name? did she show her to her room? What's she look like? Did she see her take out her clothing in order to make the offer? Did they not converse? Build the scene.
She had smiled knowingly at her offer.
Why "knowingly"?
She hung the black hooded cloak on the first available hanger, then her black chiffon dress with sequins and red ribbons sewn so strategically at shoulders, elbow and hemline. Maybe the creases would drop out a little as this October was a mild one and the room small and stuffy.
Gosh, perhaps she should have used a decent suitcase? Is there some reason she did not?
Sitting at the 40's style dressing table, with its wooden back to the window,
Is it a low window or a very tall dressing table?
she gazed out onto the narrow streets. This upper room overlooked the red roofed houses that snuggled, shoulder to shoulder, winding their bodies down along the narrow lanes.
You could describe more. People who have been there, like myself, often welcome the mention of familiar places. If you are not actually looking out while you write this, then use Google Maps and Streetview. Both excellent tools for looking at places you are not actually at.
Kevin, for once I find that I agree with some of your points.
First let me say this: It goes well once it begins. It needs some work -- those stilted sentences that Paul mentioned, and the point about the coach and the B & B, that Kevin mentioned...
On those, my standard advice is to slow down. There's no restriction on words, and if it takes two sentences, or ten, or thirty to say that she arrived from the coach in good time and stepped lively towards the B&B, then so be it.
But I'd ask you to compare the description of Tommy Bloody Guitar on stage... the writhing, the sweat sticking his ginger hair to his brow... See how you've given us a great visual scene there? Compare it with the Goth Girl (Goth Lady, Goth Hag, Goth Noun-of-Preference) getting to the B&B. One makes us see the scene, even imagine the details that aren't described, and the other just shoves information at us.
What if you had said, instead of "She arrived on the coach in good time and soon found her way to the B and B booked over a year ago" you had said something more like:
"She stepped down from the coach and cast her eyes along the narrow street, smirking as she chose the most likely path to her B&B. This would be the night; the reason she had booked her room over a year in advance."
Understand here, I'm not talking about the difference between the right way and the wrong way, or good and bad, but between pretty good and a bit better. Of course, we always want a bit better. You've got a good basic story, and a couple of good scenes, but slow down and tell them with a bit more reference.
Also, in passing, I object to the line "She had smiled knowingly at her offer" because it is unclear whether the Goth is smiling at the landlady's offer, or the landlady is smiling at her own offer. Do Goth's never use irons? Were we expected to know this? But of course, that is a minor, almost trivial point.
In all, a good tale. A stylistic comment to follow.
Now, on style: There are, in broad strokes, two kinds of crime drama: Those in which the drama is driven by the mystery, and the suspense hangs from discovering the killer, or those in which we know who is the killer, and the suspense comes from finding out if he or she will be caught.
Your story at this point could go either way, though you've taken big steps down the second path. Neither style is right or wrong, but each has its advantages. In the Who-Dun-It? style, there's a built-in outline, and the plot drives itself. The righter-of-wrongs naturally snoops around and ferrets out the killer.
In the Why-Do-It/Will-They-Catchem? style, the "outline" is much looser but the author needs to give us considerable insight into the killer's thinking. And you've given us a bit of that already, with the Goth imagining what trees and graveyards will be used for later, or what the publican's attitude towards drunken Goths will be. Or when she hopes to put the guitarist into the graveyard and not in a fun way, we're in her mind to some degree.
The WillTheyCatchem? style doesn't let us directly have that same insight directly into the righter-of-wrongs, so there have to be some interactions to give us clues about what the righter is thinking. If you remember the old Columbo series, you'll see what I mean... Um, just one more thing, Ma'am... Oh, yes. right you are...
So that's just food for thought. Best of luck with the story. Hope it goes very well. I can't wait to see more.
Kevin, for once I find that I agree with some of your points.
They are the same type of points I usually make. :-)
Thanks to all for taking the time and effort to read my extract. I shall take comments on board. Yes, I DO rush... I lost a handwritten first novel and it has made me rather nervous of losing any writing I do! I also had a stroke and this made me very aware of time running out! CHEERS!2 · Share on Twitter
I understand the concerns. Yes, mortality is one of the great obstacles to creativity. We recently lost Sue Grafton, who will never give us "Y is for ..." or "Z is for ..."
And the goal of a first draft is to get the plot onto paper where it can be worked on, so no worries there either. You will have plenty of time in the second draft to work on points of style and scenery.
As I said above, once it gets going it goes well.
Papi_Soñoliento Southern Escarpment Hill Country TeacherTime is what you make of it, none of us have time as much as we'd like to think so it behooves us to make the most of however much we have.

Kind words…
"At the end of 2018, I pivoted my business to offer a more done-with-you / supportive content marketing service. Changing my offering was quite daunting and combining that with new branding was a big step for me.
I tried to do my own rebrand initially but it took up so much time and I'm not a trained graphic designer either. I wish I'd just taken the plunge and worked with Hollie sooner!
I was nervous to begin with, as I'd never worked with a graphic designer before but Hollie instantly put my mind at ease. She's so calming and friendly, she offers advice freely and her whole process makes everything clear. Going through it all in stages made it seem much more manageable and less overwhelming.
Hollie really takes a lot of time to get to know you, your business and your goals, to make sure what she designs for you will be exactly what you need.
I love my new logo and gorgeous brand colours. Having her design social media templates for me has also saved me a tonne of time and makes being consistent on social media so much easier.
A few months after my rebrand, I contacted Hollie again to design a lead magnet download for me and that was a really smooth process too. She's so efficient and communication is always a breeze." – Erin Spurling

Ad filmmaker Vinil Mathew feels his experience in the advertising world and acquaintance with the camera helped him a lot while making his debut feature movie 'Hasee Toh Phasee'.
Vinil feels an ad filmmaker has the advantage over assistant directors as they have the experience of having called the shots and leading a team.
"Being an ad filmmaker gives you an edge while making a film. One has the sensibility to get the audiences attention as they tell a story in merely 30 seconds. People around you- be it the producers or the actors- are a lot more comfortable and confident working with you as I have previously worked in the same medium," Vinil told PTI in an interview.
"Unlike an assistant director or someone else, I know my camera, I know my angles. As an ad filmmaker one minute I am making a chocolate commercial, in the the other I am making a car advert. It makes you versatile. I am aware of the new technologies," he said.
With his debut in Bollywood as a director, Vinil has joined a long list of people, who have made a successful transition from the world of advertising to tinseltown, which includes Satyajit Ray, Shyam Benegal, Pradeep Sarkar, Dibakar Banerjee, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Shoojit Sircar, Rajkumar Hirani and many others.
Vinil says although there are definite advantages, it is not a guarantee that a good ad filmmaker will go on to make nice films.
"I don't think it is generic. All ad filmmakers don't end up making good films. It all depends on how you decide to tell your story."
Vinil says 'Hasee Toh Phasee' is one of the few scripts that he was toying with a year back and the only one that was liked by Phantom Films, the producers. The film stars Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra and will hit theatres on February 7.
