MY NOBLE LORD, THAT I may present my excuse why, being a stranger to your lordship, I offer this poem to your patronage, I plead this warrant: men who never saw the sea, yet desire to behold that regiment of waters, choose some eminent river to guide them thither, and make that, as it were, their conduct or postilion: by the like ingenious means has your fame arrived at my knowledge, receiving it from some of worth, who both in contemplation and practice http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/%7Erbear/webster1.html (2 of 121)4/11/2005 6:23:14 AM The Duchess of Malfi owe to your honour their clearest service.

When I or someone else has made an observation and that species is not already in the book, it may be verified and added. Clearly there are in reality many hundreds or thousands of species likely to be present at Duchess Park but not recorded here. So this book is truly a work in progress. There are many classes of insects and invertebrates not included. The intention is that effort and time will hopefully lead to more. For example, no attempt has yet been made to include worms, slugs, snails or spiders. These are all important food sources for birds, reptiles and amphibians. From an ecological perspective much remains to be done to give the book more scientific rigour.

Practicing Love of God in Medieval Jerusalem, Gaul and Saxony
he collection of essays presented in “Devotional Cross-Roads: Practicing Love of God in Medieval Gaul, Jerusalem, and Saxony” investigates test case witnesses of TChristian devotion and patronage from Late Antiquity to the Late Middle Ages, set in and between the Eastern and Western Mediterranean, as well as Gaul and the regions north of the Alps. Devotional practice and love of God refer to people – mostly from the lay and religious elite –, ideas, copies of texts, images, and material objects, such as relics and reliquaries. The wide geographic borders and time span are used here to illustrate a broad picture composed around questions of worship, identity, reli- gious affiliation and gender. Among the diversity of cases, the studies presented in this volume exemplify recurring themes, which occupied the Christian believer, such as the veneration of the Cross, translation of architecture, pilgrimage and patronage, emergence of iconography and devotional patterns. These essays are representing the research results of the project “Practicing Love of God: Comparing Women’s and Men’s Practice in Medieval Saxony” guided by the art historian Galit Noga-Banai, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the histori- an Hedwig Röckelein, Georg-August-University Göttingen. This project was running from 2013 to 2018 within the Niedersachsen-Israeli Program and financed by the State of Lower Saxony. Devotional Cross-Roads Practicing Love of God in Medieval Jerusalem, Gaul and Saxony Edited by Hedwig Röckelein, Galit Noga-Banai, and Lotem Pinchover Röckelein/Noga-Banai/Pinchover Devotional Cross-Roads ISBN 978-3-86395-372-0 Universitätsverlag Göttingen Universitätsverlag Göttingen Hedwig Röckelein, Galit Noga-Banai, and Lotem Pinchover (Eds.)

General Damages Are Incoherent, Incalculable, Incommensurable, and Inegalitarian (But Otherwise a Great Idea)

GENERAL DAMAGES ARE INCOHERENT, INCALCULABLE, INCOMMENSURABLE, AND INEGALITARIAN (BUT OTHERWISE A GREAT IDEA) Richard Abel Lawyers care deeply about damages. Before taking cases, plaintiffs' lawyers are as concerned about what they are worth as about the diffi- culty of proving liability.1 Defendants and insurers want to know what to offer in settlement or invest in defense. But law professors marginalize damages.2 In the two years between December 2002 and December 2004, just 111 of the 1,100 scholarly articles on torts con- cerned damages (ten percent), of which twenty-one (two percent) dis- cussed punitive damages (because recent Supreme Court decisions had constitutionalized the issue) and fifteen (1.4%) discussed medical malpractice caps (in response to the third wave of liability insurance 3 "crises"). Treatises and texts give equally short shrift to damages, generally less than ten percent of their pages, often none at all (see Table A).

GREAT EXPECTATIONS -- by Charles Dickens Chapter 1 My father's family name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to be called Pip. I give Pirrip as my father's family name, on the authority of his tombstone and my sister - Mrs. Joe Gargery, who married the blacksmith. As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the days of photographs), my first fancies regarding what they were like, were unreasonably derived from their tombstones. The shape of the letters on my father's, gave me an odd idea that he was a square, stout, dark man, with curly black hair. From the character and turn of the inscription, "Also Georgiana Wife of the Above," I drew a childish conclusion that my mother was freckled and sickly. To five little stone lozenges, each about a foot and a half long, which were arranged in a neat row beside their grave, and were sacred to the memory of five little brothers of mine - who gave up trying to get a living, exceedingly early in that universal struggle - I am indebted for a belief I religiously entertained that they had all been born on their backs with their hands in their trousers-pockets, and had never taken them out in this state of existence.
