Decorators SYMBOLS EMBLEMS & DEVICES Rare Art Design Book For Collectors BY GUY CADOGAN ROTHERY, AUTHOR OF “Practical Notes on Heraldry,” “Civic Armorials," etc. With Original Designs BY E.

Important as is a close adherence to style and period in decorative design, perhaps even more important is a strict correctness when symbols or emblems form part of the scheme. And while great latitude can often be allowed to designers in portraying these devices there are yet, usually, well defined limits—historical, or otherwise—within which it is most desirable to keep. For it is safe to assert that many a piece of decoration has been greatly marred by inaccuracies in its symbolic details which have greatly detracted from the artistic value of the whole. This little book will, it is hoped, both in text and illustrations, prove of practical assistance to designers and decorators when emblematic work is included in their schemes. To students it should be of help in gaining a general knowledge of the elements of a very extensive subject. Mr. Rothery, the author, is an acknowledged authority on the subject on which he writes so agreeably, while Mr. E. Fletcher Clayton’s talent as an illustrator gives a freshness and original touch to many time-worn details. PREFACE. Much as there is to admire in the recent revival of decoration, it must be confessed that too often the schemes one secs carried out on a more or less elaborate scale are not as appropriate as they might be. Curious mistakes are made as regards symbolism, either by the use of unsuitable motives, or in inattention to detail. Therefore, there would appear to be room for an unpretentious practical treatise on symbolism and heraldry for the use of decorators. In writing this little book two main objects have been kept in view : to supply a guide for the busy man who may be instructed to carry out a scheme involving the use of certain classes of symbols, and, secondly, to enable a decorator to devise schemes of his own for the appropriate embellishment of special rooms or buildings. The book has been kept strictly within these narrow limits, and does not pretend to an exhaustive survey of what is an immense and most interesting subject. Guy Cadogan Rothery. Kensington, 1907.

When I was in first grade I told on a boy for saying the "f" word (Sorry, Cole, wherever you are now). The teacher kept him after class and told him how that was a very bad word to say, and he was perplexed. He had said "fart". These days, I feel like the "F' word is "feminist." Prior to learning about feminist theory or opening my eyes to the sexism that is alive even in 2012, I assumed a feminist was a woman with hairy armpits who was angry at the world. "Feminist" is usually used as a way to dismiss a woman from sharing her point of view. "Oh, she's just a feminist," or "Well she IS a feminist," as if that makes her point less valid. The truth is, any person who thinks men and women should be treated equally IS a feminist...he or she just might not know it yet. Rush Limbaugh has (rightfully so) received a lot of heat from his comments made this week about Sandra Fluke, graduate student from Georgetown University, in a political debate about birth control and insurance. Since calling this woman a "slut" and "prostitute," AND requesting that her sex tapes be put up online for free, since his tax dollars are paying for her birth control, thus paying for her sex...seven companies have withdrawn advertising for his show. These include Quicken Loans, Sleep Train, Sleep Number, Citrix Systems Inc., Carbonite, LegalZoom, and ProFlowers. He also said that women up in arms about this issue were "Feminazis," a common term used to degrade women who support women's rights. How that term can be perceived as remotely acceptable, I have no idea...Regardless, Rush apologized yesterday, but now that this has become a mainstream issue, it is time for some serious discussion on the sexism that is alive today. I really hope that women, especially women MY age, open their eyes and realize that we HAVE to make this better. (Source: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/rush-limbaugh-democrats-demonizing-sex-comments/story?id=15834374#.T1QhYJimLBQ) Vote. For YOUR best interest. Everybody has a right to their own opinion. Rush Limbaugh has a right to his opinion. But calling a woman a "slut" and a "prostitute" is NOT an opinion; it is defamation of character. In all fairness, asking for insurance coverage on birth control pills is a sexist issue. When insurance companies cover Viagra (which they currently do!), there is NO excuse. Viagra is used for one reason and one reason only. It helps men in the sexual arena. Birth control has many purposes. My dermatologist prescribed me birth control for my face when I was fourteen and abstinent. I have friends with polycystic ovarian syndrome and other menstrual disorders that require this prescription for HEALTH reasons completely unrelated to SEXUAL reasons. It is obvious that the majority of our legislation is dictated by men, and it shows when you look at the law. If more women have more babies, more women will stay home with those babies (even if only for 8 weeks or so, though other women might have the option to stay home for a longer span of time), and as a result, there is less competition for men in the business world. When women went to work in the 60s, it was a threat to men. Most women played the secretarial role, and over the years, we have advanced to take on more powerful and more traditionally 'male' roles. There's a lot of work to be done...there are still more doctors that are male and nurses that are female, for instance (though I believe now in medical schools, there are slightly more females than males, so that is promising). But even when males and females have the SAME job, women still make 76 cents for every dollar a man makes. Most male nurses make more money than female nurses. I expect the surgeon I work for to make WAY more money than me, that is logical. However, if a male nurse and a female nurse are equally qualified and have the same amount of experience, there is no reason for the male to make more money. At the GOP hearing on birth control for women, there were five men present to discuss the issue. Where were the women? Only 17% of Congress is female. Isn't it obvious that this is not a left/right or conservative/liberal issue? It is a female issue, and all women, regardless of party, need to unite and get help from our government. Our government is run by men making decisions that are best for men. I would be more understanding if these men were open to discussing abortion, natural birth, or welfare. Even gay rights. Because what if a woman does become pregnant and has an abortion? The same people against contraceptive coverage will do their best to prevent her from having an abortion. Okay, let's say the woman herself is against abortion and has the baby. If she wants a natural birth (the way women birthed babies for the past tens of thousands of years), they will block insurance coverage. If she even has a medical birth in the hospital, but couldn't afford that baby in the first place, they are the first to complain about her welfare status. What if the woman CAN afford a baby, HAS the baby "the right way" (in the hospital, covered by her own insurance), and raises a contributing member of society...but that baby turns out to be gay? They don't want equal rights for that baby anymore. I have a hard time standing back and hearing this debate, when there is no support for the woman at any point in the process. Thanks, Ryan. I'll go on, then. Men don't have this problem. Sure they might get it handed to them at court for child support, but that's about the extent that the government mingles. Just in men's pocketbooks. Our government literally rapes women by requiring the insertion of dopplers trans-vaginally to show a woman the fetus prior to an abortion, even if she asks not to have this done. It's not an option in Texas. Jean Kilbourne thinks that sexism is even worse now than in the earlier days, because of the subconscious messages women receive now through media. We are exposed to so many more advertisements, be it online, billboards, magazines, or television...and the messages are all the same. Beauty is expected of women, and beauty is limited to a certain 'look' that few have. Women constantly feel a need to look different and better, and most women stop at nothing to attain that beauty. You would not believe the ads that use to run in magazines. The sexism was in your face. Now, it's more subliminal. When you flip through a magazine, you're exposed to hundreds of images, and those images stick in your head whether you're aware of it or not. Ever look in the mirror and think there's something you want to change? You weren't BORN THAT WAY. Society MADE YOU THAT WAY. Nothing is wrong with you. The images we see on TV and in magazines aren't even real...the models have gobs of make up and have been airbrushed. But our minds tell us that the images are real, and we are failing at attaining that image. Constant exposure to such images is detrimental to our self esteem. Plastic surgery continues to increase, despite the poor economy. I know this first-hand as a plastic surgery RN in the operating room! We are constantly busy. Today in our meeting, I shared with the women, I feel there are 3 categories we can place our patients. (a) People who want to look different (ie: rhinoplasty patients, young females without children seeking breast augmentation, liposuction patients, etc...) (b) Mothers who want to look how they once did before having/nursing their children (ie: breast lifts, tummy tucks) (c) Reconstructive patients (burn victims/dog bites/breast cancer patients) Overall, I think a woman has the right to modify her body, and do with her body, whatever she wants. I feel conflicted at times, feeling the way I do about women's issues, but I remind myself that my job as a nurse is to get that woman through her surgery safely, and to help her feel supported before and after. I am interested from a sociological standpoint, however, why our patient population is 90% female. Why is it that men do not feel the need to go under the knife like women do? Is it because they don't birth children, so there's nothing to "fix" back to pre-baby? What about the women we work on who never had children? It's a complex topic, and I'm sure I'll blog about it again in the future...

We will be at Marcus High School on March 19th and 20th presenting "Finding Kind" and couldn't be more excited! We had a turnout of about 1200 girls at Flower Mound High School at the end of last year, and hope to make a similar impact this month at MHS. This program is not political in nature; the message is universal, and teaches girls the importance of kindness. We have to start treating eachother better (as women!) if we hope to be treated better by men or society. This program focuses on kindness, and is a great antidote for the bullying that we have seen in schools today. The film and discussion are specifically for girls, and the way that girls tend to bully one another (less physical violence and more rumors/gossiping/back-stabbing). It's a fantastic program and I hope we have another great turn out! I'm including a few more pictures that motivate and inspire me, and I hope to make that impact on others as well.
