Cats with Wings
WINGED CATS And yet — in fact you need only draw a single thread at any point you choose out of the fabric of life and the run will make a pathway across the whole, and down that wider pathway each of the other threads will become successively visible, one by one. — Heimito von Doderer, DIE DÂIMONEN HDT WHAT? INDEX WINGED CATS WINGED CATS 1299 There is a tale of a winged predatory cat known as the Cat-a-Mountain in the accounts of Marco Polo (1254- 1324). This beast supposedly had the body of a leopard but a strange skin that stretched out when it hunted, enabling it to fly in the pursuit of its prey. This Cat-a-Mountain is most likely an imagined hybrid — a predatory feline imagined as a large bat or a predatory feline imagined as a large flying squirrel with flaps of skin enabling it to glide. Winged cats of myth and legend were often demonic creatures with “feathered” wings and were liable to swoop down on humans, who were liable to be terrified. Later authors would use Polo’s term to describe a wildcat and by the 17th Century it would have been abbreviated to Catamount and would be being used as a synonym for the American Mountain Lion, Cougar, or Puma. CATS WITH WINGS ESSENCE IS BLUR. SPECIFICITY, THE OPPOSITE OF ESSENCE, IS OF THE NATURE OF TRUTH. Winged Cats “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project HDT WHAT? INDEX WINGED CATS WINGED CATS 1657 Job van Meekren, a Dutch physician, described a Spaniard, Georgius Albes, who was able to draw the skin of the left pectoral region to the left ear, or the skin under the face over the chin to the vertex. -

JOURNAL OF THE Bombay Natural History Society FEBRUARY, 1927 VOL. XXXI No. 4 THE MOGHUL EMPERORS OF INDIA AS NATURALISTS AND SPORTtlMEN BY SALIM A. ALl PART I (With 3 plates) The title of this paper is somewhat misleading, hence it may be advisable at the outset to indicate its scope. The term 'Moghul Emperors' here represents only the Big tlix, from Babnr the illustrious founder of the dynasty to Aurangzebe, with whose death the great empire launched on a career of steady and rapid decline. The' Naturalists' of the title also needs qualification. It ~tands here only in respect of animal life, though it is well known that the Moghuls were great lovers of Nature in all its other aspects as well. The wonderful gardens' built by them all over Northern India remain to this day to bear testimony to theIr love for flowers and trees, and the genuine delight which Babur and his great-grandson Jehangir felt in the natural objects they saw around them cannot help impressing anyone who wades through the inimitable memoirs left us by these two sovereigns. To avoid repitition of lengthy titles of works which I have most frequently quoted, I propose to use the following abbreviations :_ Babur Memoirs of ZaMruddin Mohonztd Babur, translated from the Chagatai Turki by John Leyden, M.D. -

Trade Mark Ex-Parte Decision O/631/20
O-631-20 TRADE MARK ACT 1994 IN THE MATTER OF APPLICATION NUMBER: 3459060 BY MICHAEL MACKENZIE TO REGISTER THE FOLLOWING TRADE MARK IN CLASS 33: INBHIR NIS Background 1. On 17 January 2020, Mr Michael MacKenzie (‘the applicant’) applied to register the above trade mark for the following goods: Class 33 :Whisky; Malt whisky; Scotch whisky; Whiskey [whisky]. 2. On 22 January 2020, the Intellectual Property Office (‘IPO’) issued an examination report in response to the application. The examination report contained objections under Section 3(1)(b) and 3(3) (b) of the Trade Marks Act 1994 (‘the Act’). The letter read as follows: “Absolute grounds for refusal Section 3(1)(b) and (c) The application is not acceptable in Class 33. There is an objection under Section 3(1)(b) and (c) of the Act. This is because the mark consists exclusively of a sign which may serve in trade to designate the geographical origin of the goods e.g. Inbhir Nis is the Scottish Gaelic name for Inverness. Absent any unique or distinctive element the average consumer is only going to perceive the sign as an indication that the whisky emanates from Inbhir Nis/Inverness rather than a badge of trade origin capable of distinguishing your whisky from those provided by other undertakings. Section 3(3)(b) The application is not acceptable in Class 33 as there is an objection under Section 3(3)(b) of the Act. This is because Inbhir Nis is the Scottish Gaelic name for Inverness and so the mark indicates that the whisky is from Scotland. -

Argent, a dragon displayed sable and on a chief triangular azure a decrescent argent. There is a step from period practice for the use of a dragon displayed. Aleidis Lanen. Name and device. Purpure, in saltire a two-tined fork and a goblet, on a chief Or a dragon passant vert. Amalie Jäger von Holstein. Device. Argent, a horse rampant and on a chief rayonny enarched purpure two bears sejant erect respectant argent. Please instruct the submitter to draw the chief slightly higher on the field so it is unmistakably a chief. Angus mac Duibh. Name. Submitted as Angus Mac Dubh, the name was changed by kingdom to Áengus mac Duibh. The changes to the byname were necessary because the grammar of Gaelic requires that the patronymic be put in the genitive case. The changes to the given name were not required; we have therefore restored the submitted given name. This name mixes a Scots given name and a Gaelic byname, which is a step from period practice. The fully (Early Modern) Gaelic form is Aonghus mac Duibh; the earlier Middle Gaelic byname form that goes with Áengus is mac Duib. Caniodricca verch Elidir. Device.

Appearing on the Letter of Intent as Jean Hope, a timely correction noted that the submitted form is Jean Hope of Hartstone. Hartstone is the registered name of an SCA branch. This name combines a French given name and English byname. This is an acceptable lingual mix under Appendix C of SENA. We note that Jean is also found as an English given name used by both men and woman in the late 16th century (FamilySearch Historical Records), making this an entirely English name. -

It is not simply enough to (for example) state that a name is in Withycombe. Even "Withycombe, page (page #)" is not enough. Different editions of Withycombe have the headers on different pages. Even the 3rd edition hardback has entries on different pages than the 3rd edition paperback.
