This is probably due to the fact o f th e that the evolution badge was gradual, and that its importance increased unconsciously . Badges formerly do no t appear to have ever been made the subjects o f grants pure and o f fre simple, though grants standards were quent, and standards Often had badges thereupon . o f Apart from such grants standards, however, the instances which can be referred to as showing o r the control, even the attempted control, by the Crown o f the use o f badges are very rare indeed o f in times past . As a matter fact, the Crown seems almost to have purposely ignored them . B adges are not, as we know them, found in o f the earliest period heraldry, unless we are to l presume their existence from early sea s, many o f which show isolated charges taken from the W arms ; for if, in the cases here such single I I He ra ldic B a dg e s charges appear upon the seals, we are to accept those seals as proofs o f the contemporary exist o f ence those devices as heraldic badges, we should Often be led into strange conclusions . s There is no doubt that these isolated device , which are met with constantly at an early period, o f were not only parts arms, but were in many ori in o f fi nd cases the g arms, which we later in the use Of the descendants Of the same families as those which made use o f the earlier form . Devices possessing a more o r less personal and possessive character occur in many cases before record can be traced o f the arms into which they subsequently developed . This will be o f noticed in relation to the arms Swinton , for example . The earliest Swinton seal shows the ’ o f isolated charge a boar s head, whilst the developed coat o f arms was a chevron between If three such heads . , however, these simple o devices upon seals are badges, then badges g o f back to an earlier date than arms .

  • “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil”
    “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil” English Identity and the Law of Arms in Early Modern England Claire Renée Kennedy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History and Philosophy of Science University of Sydney 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My greatest thanks and appreciation to Ofer Gal, who supervised my PhD with constant interest, insightfulness and support. This thesis owes so much to his helpful conversation and encouraging supervision and guidance. I have benefitted immensely from the suggestions and criticisms of my examiners, John Sutton, Nick Wilding, and Anthony Grafton, to whom I owe a particular debt. Grafton’s suggestion during the very early stages of my candidature that the quarrel between William Camden and Ralph Brooke might provide a promising avenue for research provided much inspiration for the larger project. I am greatly indebted to the staff in the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science: in particular, Hans Pols for his unwavering support and encouragement; Daniela Helbig, for providing some much-needed motivation during the home-stretch; and Debbie Castle, for her encouraging and reassuring presence. I have benefitted immensely from conversations with friends, in and outside the Unit for HPS. This includes, (but is not limited to): Megan Baumhammer, Sahar Tavakoli, Ian Lawson, Nick Bozic, Gemma Lucy Smart, Georg Repnikov, Anson Fehross, Caitrin Donovan, Stefan Gawronski, Angus Cornwell, Brenda Rosales and Carrie Hardie. My particular thanks to Kathryn Ticehurst and Laura Sumrall, for their willingness to read drafts, to listen, and to help me clarify my thoughts and ideas. My thanks also to the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters, University College London, and the History of Science Program, Princeton University, where I benefitted from spending time as a visiting research student.

  • Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing
    The UK Linguistics Olympiad 2018 Round 2 Problem 1 Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing Heraldry is the study of rank and heraldic arms, and there is a part which looks particularly at the way that coats-of-arms and shields are put together. The language for describing arms is known as blazon and derives many of its terms from French. The aim of blazon is to describe heraldic arms unambiguously and as concisely as possible. On the next page are some blazon descriptions that correspond to the shields (escutcheons) A-L. However, the descriptions and the shields are not in the same order. 1. Quarterly 1 & 4 checky vert and argent 2 & 3 argent three gouttes gules two one 2. Azure a bend sinister argent in dexter chief four roundels sable 3. Per pale azure and gules on a chevron sable four roses argent a chief or 4. Per fess checky or and sable and azure overall a roundel counterchanged a bordure gules 5. Per chevron azure and vert overall a lozenge counterchanged in sinister chief a rose or 6. Quarterly azure and gules overall an escutcheon checky sable and argent 7. Vert on a fess sable three lozenges argent 8. Gules three annulets or one two impaling sable on a fess indented azure a rose argent 9. Argent a bend embattled between two lozenges sable 10. Per bend or and argent in sinister chief a cross crosslet sable 11. Gules a cross argent between four cross crosslets or on a chief sable three roses argent 12. Or three chevrons gules impaling or a cross gules on a bordure sable gouttes or On your answer sheet: (a) Match up the escutcheons A-L with their blazon descriptions.

  • Merits of Invention Edition
    Vol. 7, No. 11 MERITS OF INVENTION EDITION In this Issue: • The Last Inventor • Merit Badge Sashes • Earning Them All • Reinventing the Invention Merit Badge • Thomas Edison and Scouting • Thomas Edison Supernova Award “Build a better mousetrap,” goes an old saying, “and the world will beat a pathway to your door.” That’s all good, unless you happen to be a mouse. Inventing things captures the imagination of young people. Find some tools, boards, pipes, wires, and before long they are nailing, pounding, shaping, bolting, gluing, and imagining what to make next. It’s an impulse Scouting has encouraged since the BSA’s earliest days. THE LAST INVENTOR This year marks a tiny Scouting anniversary. A hundred years ago in 1915, exactly one person earned the Invention merit badge. He was also the tenth and last to receive what has become the BSA’s least-earned award and rarest embroidered patch. Invention was one of the original 57 merit badges listed in the 1911 Boy Scout Handbook. It had just two requirements. Inventing something is one thing. Getting it patented is quite another. To protect an invention from use by others without permission, an inventor must file with the United States Office of Patents and Trademarks and then wait to learn if a patent has been granted. Many early BSA emblems show evidence of being patented. A Scout who did earn the Invention merit badge was Graeme Smallwood of Troop 32, Washington, DC. It was his 38th merit badge. He filed for his patent on October 27, 1914, and received it thirteen months later on the last day of November, 1915.

  • Rose Problems
    Page 1 of 7 Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org A Visual Guide: Rose Problems Black spot of rose Black spot is the most important disease of roses and one of the most common diseases found everywhere roses are grown. The disease does not kill the plant outright, but over time, the loss of leaves can weaken the plant making it more susceptible to other stresses and to winter damage. Black spots, one-tenth to one-half inch in diameter, develop first on upper leaf surfaces. Later, areas adjacent to the black spots turn yellow and leaves drop prematurely, usually beginning at the bottom of the plant and progressing upward. Lookalikes: Spot anthracnose (shot-hole disease) is not a major problem unless it is very hot (too hot for black spot). Spots caused by black spot are fuzzy around the edges, then turn yellow and brown. Spots caused by anthracnose are smooth edged and the centers turn grey and drop out. Treatment is the same, but if a pesticide is used, it must be labeled for black spot or anthracnose, whichever disease you are treating. Rose rosette Rose rosette disease, also known as witches'-broom of rose, is a virus or virus-like disease, that is spread by a microscopic eriophyid mite. The main symptom is a tightly grouped, proliferation of distorted, usually bright red foliage (a witches'-broom). Affected canes may be excessively thorny, thicker than unaffected canes and slow to mature. The canes are also soft, as are the prickles, and will break off with little pressure.

  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.
