Style and Discourse by Liz Frazier

Topic of intrest: People also ask: What does decorum mean? noun De*cor"um. Propriety of manner or conduct; grace arising from suitableness of speech and behavior to one's own character, or to the place and occasion; decency of conduct; seemliness; that which is seemly or suitable. Usage: Decorum, in accordance with its etymology, is that which is becoming in outward act or appearance; as, the decorum of a public assembly.
Even epic poetic works should fit in a genre. If Given full authority back to the 15th and 18th century theoreticits Aristotle and Horace. Poetic forms as "labled by our society(1918)" "occupy their proper place in genre by decorum". They are "critically allied for discourse". "Proper behavior is exspected of both lititure and citizens alike." Essentional Quality is left outside the theorist's range of analysis therefore placing each work in its' own genre occupied by theme. Aristotal and Horace seemed to agree from the begining. Having "the stapels of discourse said to be fully defensable" allowed each work to be claimed by their own essentional quality giving style to discouse. (Summary: Liz Frazier Co: Rick Altmon 1999: Film Genre).

Nature's Order: The Model of Concern; Response to Aaron Lester's Problem With Predictions, Harvard Gazette

The Problem With Predictions, Harvard Gazette: “People have always yearned to peer into the future to make sense of what's going to happen”, Said Mathematician-Speaker; David Orell (Aaron Lester, Harvard Correspondent reports) during a Peabody Museum Talk, April 25, 2013. Although Orell’s talk is not recent his subject seems timeless. Turning points can be hard to make and even harder to predict, especially if we aren't looking. Taking the time to do things responsibly is more important everyday. Everybody has been rushing about for such a long time it seems we don't slow down and look. We might notice things do peer back at us. If we take the time to see them. With all the deadlines to meet, bills to pay. What notice did we miss? If we could slow down. Follow the signs. Think about the obstacles, clean up the trip hazards and have the patience and compassion to allow things to fall into place. People may begin to see what will happen. Because of what happens when we do...

A Pound of Prevention

Prevention is worth a pound of cure: Cambridge dictionary: definition of truism. Disease holds an impairing position though. Making up statements to say a lot can sometimes contribute to imposing positions that break an order of activity. The image of the snake biting its own tale gives me the idea of making the same mistakes over and over again. Implementing context for due processes could allow for understanding things in a more responsible manner. Although things can only come around in the order in which they came, we could be hiding from our own compiling tale. If we organize not to, it might be possible not to take the bite so often.   (63) Pinterest Image The pandemic is just another epic tale. Ouch. But let's not pop their balloon.  US News political cartoon display . I know I sound like I am a bit full of hot air myself but I think if we had known how to prevent viruses in the first place we may have also seen a way for a cure. An ounce of prevention is worth a ...

Response to: On the Agenda; Banning Natural Gas from homes By Magan Banta Published Feb 5, Register Guard

Response to: On the Agenda; Banning Natural Gas from homes By Magan Banta Published Feb 5, 6am Register Guard. Liz Frazier Photo Article We have been working with natural gas for soo long. It is popping up out of the ground and breathing it is not safe but is ignoring it, and how it runs safely, safe? What will happen when there is nowhere for the natural gas to go and it is still flowing in a fossil fuled way. Electricity and heat are made to be regulated and cost money. Do disruptive green house gasses come from disrupting conductivity? Electricity and heat is a need. Warmth is necessary for understanding and working with information. The Natural Gas Act, which was administered by the Federal Power Commission (FPC), extended to the transportation and sale of natural gas by natural gas companies. In 1954 the Supreme Court extended regulation to the prices paid by interstate pipelines to independent natural gas producers. It seems there has been a lot of attention paid to how ...
