(Because all the best lies are true.) Acknowledgements, Credits, Mumbo-Jumbo, and Hocus Pocus WARPHEIM The Game of Auto-Erotic Defenestration Wherein: The proverbial “Gentlemen's Agreement” Is to break the game As hard as possible. Ladies, gentlemen, boys, girls, hermaphrodites, and genderless sentient crystals of all ages, welcome to Warpheim! بسم ا الرحمن الرحيم THE GOLDEN CITY Amid the eerie flotsam of the immaterial realms, down in the darkest and most primal depths of the warp, there exists a city unlike any other. Yet for all its uniqueness every other city shares its face. It is the shadow of Ancient Uruk’s wall upon the sand. It is the romantic music of Paris and the cuisine of Nova York, the grand displays of Rome, and the acrid, forever remembered stench of the Hyper-Tokyo Underhives. It is the Emerald City, El Dorado and Atlantis. It is the Silver City in the Kingdom of Heaven, and it is the blackened, industrial heart of the Empire of Dis. Known in the old tongues as Dhashamon, it is the fabled “golden” city in the warp, shimmering at the crossroads of all time and the vast majority of space. It is the first village, and its streets are every street. Many among those that dwell forever in the shifting realms dream of one day returning to a more stable consensus reality, like the mythical land of Earth from the folk legends, but all recognize this as folly. The miracles of the Golden City are labyrinthine and infinite: Mazes within mazes such that no one could escape if given a thousand lifetimes. Be careful here, traveller, for the city likes to play with new arrivals like a cat toying with a captive mouse before devouring it. Run fast, little mouse. Run fast, run true, and perhaps you might live. Be hasty and flee: Look out! The City's free! Be quick, we must rout! Be wary, be feisty, but flee! Get out! Get out! For the Sidewalk shan't be nice to thee. The City's broken free. Flee, tiny mice, flee and be hasty! Run away from your house. Rout! Run as fast as can be! For the Pavement thinks you're tasty. The City names meat as its price, little mouse. The slow, greedy mice of base avarice Are oft' the first to be hunted down: Cursed to be diced or drowned or crushed by downtown, Or split open by steel and their neck twisted round? Of course, most of the bodies are simply... never found. With careful selection of tinted reflection Skyscraper geists play optical heists: Bending in mirages of warm, inviting lodges To taunting view of starving few, lured to a fool's demise. Gloom of night hatches haunting tricks of glass and light And so the City catches prey without a daunting fight. The City is cunning. Sometimes it can be cruel, or wise. What soothsayer's bones and dice could dare surmise The gritty, perilous stones the Pavement may yet devise? Be hasty and flee: Look out! The City's free! Be quick, we must rout! Be wary, be feisty, but flee! Get out! Get out! For the Sidewalk shan't be nice to thee. The City's broken free. Flee, tiny mice, flee and be hasty! Run away from your house. Rout! Run as fast as can be! For the Pavement thinks you're tasty. Be Wary if you tarry. A sleeping city's not so scary, But a walking, waking, twisting block Of baking brick and churning rock, Twisting up with car and truck? The pavement's liquid: now you're stuck! Be hasty and flee: Look out! The city's free! Be quick, we must rout! Be wary, be feisty, but flee! Get out! Get out! For the Sidewalk shan't be nice to thee. The City's broken free. Flee, tiny mice, flee and be hasty! Run away from your house. Rout! Run as fast as can be! For the Pavement thinks you're tasty. Power line spine and nervous electrical grid, Traffic cameras leering like eyes without lid There was no place that you could have hid... The Sidewalk is always hungry. The cobblestones click like chittering locusts: Flying swarms of shingle and brick Clear of purpose with deadly focus. So be wary if you tarry, It's a city Atlas couldn't carry! Be hasty and flee: Look out! The City's free! Be quick, we must rout! Be wary, be feisty, but flee! Get out! Get out! For the Sidewalk shan't be nice to thee. The City's broken free. Flee, tiny mice, flee and be hasty! Run away, little mouse. Rout! Run as fast as can be! For the Pavement thinks you're tasty. A METROPOLIS OF WONDERS The greatest wonder in all the Golden City is surely the Library of Lost Civilizations, in which all of history -recorded and unrecorded, from Prometheus’ fire to the very heat death of this universe- is enshrined forever, scrimshawed onto the bones of the conquered. (Though the traffic light orchards in the New Quarter are a sight to behold.) [TRAFFIC LIGHT ORCHARDS WATERCOLOUR] Each sun that has ever given birth to life surrounds the Golden City like the orbital of an electron, forming a shimmering halo of quantum possibility. This is the City-Between-Cities. The murky umbral dreaming- place where all civilizations began and where all fallen cultures come to die: A place where they willingly come to be honoured, and to rest their weary bones.

  • ROMAN ARCHITEXTURE: the IDEA of the MONUMENT in the ROMAN IMAGINATION of the AUGUSTAN AGE by Nicholas James Geller a Dissertatio
    ROMAN ARCHITEXTURE: THE IDEA OF THE MONUMENT IN THE ROMAN IMAGINATION OF THE AUGUSTAN AGE by Nicholas James Geller A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Basil J. Dufallo, Chair Associate Professor Ruth Rothaus Caston Professor Bruce W. Frier Associate Professor Achim Timmermann ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of many people both within and outside of academia. I would first of all like to thank all those on my committee for reading drafts of my work and providing constructive feedback, especially Basil Dufallo and Ruth R. Caston, both of who read my chapters at early stages and pushed me to find what I wanted to say – and say it well. I also cannot thank enough all the graduate students in the Department of Classical Studies at the University of Michigan for their support and friendship over the years, without either of which I would have never made it this far. Marin Turk in Slavic Languages and Literature deserves my gratitude, as well, for reading over drafts of my chapters and providing insightful commentary from a non-classicist perspective. And I of course must thank the Department of Classical Studies and Rackham Graduate School for all the financial support that I have received over the years which gave me time and the peace of mind to develop my ideas and write the dissertation that follows. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS………………………………………………………………………ii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS……………………………………………………………………iv ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………………………....v CHAPTER I.

  • Warhammer 40K: Orks by Aehriman
    Warhammer 40K: Orks By Aehriman The Orks are the pinnacle of creation. For them, the great struggle is won. They have evolved a society which knows no stress or angst. Who are we to judge them? We Eldar who have failed, or the Humans, on the road to ruin in their turn? And why? Because we sought answers to questions that an Ork wouldn't even bother to ask! We see a culture that is strong and despise it as crude​. -Ulthan the Perverse, controversial Eldar philosopher "Of all the races I have battled throughout the galaxy, the Ork is the hardest to comprehend. They wage war with machines that should not work, care little for strategic gains, and are just as likely to slaughter each other as the enemy. How does one battle an enemy that defies all logic?" -Captain Varnael Larik, Rogue Trader The Orks plague the galaxy from end to end with their ceaseless warring and strife. They are a race rooted so deeply in war that peace is utterly incomprehensible to them. They cannot be bargained with or bought save with weapons that they will inevitably turn against those who tried to bribe them. I pray with all my faith that some great catastrophe will annihilate them but I fear that ultimately it is they, not we, who shall rule the galaxy. -Xanthius, High Lord of Terra "​Orkses is neva defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fightin' so it don't count. If we runz for it we don't lose eva, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!​" -Common Ork Saying WAAAAAAAAAAAGH! -Every Ork Ever Alright, shut yer gobs an listen up.

Even when multiple studies exploring the potential variety within a 16taphonomic process exist, quantitative methods for comparing these datasets in order to identify 17larger scale patterns have been understudied. This research uses modern bite marks collected 18from 21 of the 23 generally recognized species of extant Crocodylia to explore statistical and 19phylogenetic methods of synthesizing taphonomic datasets. Bite marks were identified, and 20specimens were then coded for presence or absence of different mark morphotypes. Attempts to 21find statistical correlation between trace types, marking animal vital statistics, and sample 22collection protocol were unsuccessful. Mapping bite mark character states on a eusuchian 23phylogeny successfully predicted the presence of known diagnostic, bisected marks in extinct 24taxa. Predictions for clades that may have created multiple subscores, striated marks, and 25extensive crushing were also generated. Inclusion of fossil bite marks which have been positively 26associated with extinct species allow this method to be projected beyond the crown group.
