Apartment Extended Absence Letter: Fill & Download for Free

In India, a month long leave at a stretch is generally classified as privilege leave, including at banks. I have had the opportunity to see appointments letters of banks. As per the terms mentioned in them, employees who are on probation are no entitled to get privilege leave. They only get casual leave at the rate of 1 casual leave for every one month of work. (apart from the one day weekly off).Hence, in the normal course, they would not get holidays of up to one month at a stretch. However, other terms in the appointment letter state that for any absence for more than seven days (not including the weekly offs and earned casual leaves) during the probation period will extend the probation period by those many days. Hence, if the probationary officer so wishes, he / she can take unpaid leaves of up to one month at a stretch, at the cost of getting the probation period extended by those many days and a possible adverse remark when the bank evaluates whether to confirm that officer or not after the probation period.

Before answering, you should know that the word “evolutionist” is generally only used here by creationists who want to telegraph their prejudices.I think the answer you are looking for (unless you are a creationist, in which case you aren’t really looking for an answer) is partly here: Absolute dating - WikipediaJust as there is a Cosmic distance ladder and overlapping techniques are used to establish astronomical distances where no one technique would give us all the answers, the same applies to dating events and items from the past.We can confidently establish recent events through first-person reporting (written reports, art works depicting events, etc). For example, there is no controversy about the dates for World Wars One and Two (except maybe at the fringes of the events behind them).Similarly, events such as the Eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD can be established. That sort of event also resulted in changes to tree-rings (Dendrochronology) and ice cores, so we can confidently match the sequence and the timing of such events between the various techniques.The good news is these dating techniques overlap and can be extended. The next technique can be verified against earlier, known, dates (and other dating methods) and then reach even further back.Is there any objective reason to assume dinosaurs didn't life among us, say, 300 years ago?Apart from avian dinosaurs which are still around (birds), there are actually plenty of objective reasons. My wife's family have a house that has been in the same family that long, there are tapestries showing this house that are nearly that old. None show dinosaurs. Which, you have to admit, would have been pretty newsworthy, even 300 years ago. Benjamin Franklin (or any of these authors: 18th-Century English, Irish, Scottish, and American Authors) would surely have noticed dinosaurs living among us.Now sure, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. So what are the chances that dinosaurs were living among people, including some people who recorded almost every event in their daily lives in letters, without any record at all appearing? In my opinion, slightly better odds than the Noah story being literally true in every respect (that should warm a creationists heart).Q: Besides for carbon dating, how do evolutionists know dinosaur fossils are as old as they say they are? Is there any objective reason to assume they didn't life among us, say, 300 years ago?

7 Amazing Glimpses into the Ancient Lives of ChildrenIt hangs in the hall and is the first thing we see in the morning and the last at night. It is the greatest and most cherished piece of artwork I own or have even seen, more priceless than a Rembrandt, Monet or Picasso. Not one of the thousands of museum-grade artifacts that have passed through my trowel and hands could compare in worth. It is perhaps the only item which I might consider dashing back into a burning house to save- the first portrait my son made of Daddy at 14 months.Jarrett 2010Children of the Middle Ages were not too different from the children of today – they enjoyed playing and learning and expressing their imagination through drawings and scribbles. This is highlighted in a remarkable 14th-century book from a Franciscan convent in Naples, which contains child ‘doodles’ in the margins.[1] It was only by chance that the illustrations were discovered.LJS 361, Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts, University of Pennsylvania Libraries folio 22r. (Child Doodles Discovered in 14th Century Manuscript )LSJ 361 is a book of astronomical and astrological tables and Dominican sermons dated to 1327, written in Latin.[2] A badly damaged inscription in the front pastedown reveals that it was produced in Naples in 1327 by a brother at the Dominican convent in Naples whilst he was a university student. The contents include tables for calculating the day of the week for any day from 1204 to 1512; commentaries on the gospel and epistle readings for the temporal cycle; and tables and lists for “Biblical, classical, and Mideastern dates”.[3] But the drawings are the work of mischievous little kids - very similar to what children do nowadays (You have no idea how many times I have opened up a book on lithics or Paleolithic art to find tell tale blue and green scribbles dated to 2011–2012).Child psychologists confirmed they were probably drawn by children aged four to six years old, establishing a set of criteria that indicates they were the work of children, for example the elongated shapes, the really long legs and the lack of a torso, the focus on the head.[4] These features are the most important to children. Comparison with doodles made today demonstrates similarities. The medieval sketches depict a human, cow or horse, and some kind of demon or devil.[5]LJS 361, Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts, University of Pennsylvania Libraries folio 23r (Young hands, old books: Drawings by children in a fourteenth-century manuscript, LJS MS. 361)In the absence of definitive provenance information, it is not clear exactly how this specialised religious manuscript passed out of the medieval convent into a context in which young children could gain access to it. How would this medieval book, surviving into the late-medieval period and beyond, come to be marked by children? Richard de Bury (1287-1345) wrote in Philobiblon:You may happen to see some headstrong youth lazily lounging over his studies, and when the winter’s frost is sharp, his nose running from the nipping cold drips down, nor does he think of wiping it with his pocket-handkerchief until he has bedewed the book before him with the ugly moisture. Would that he had before him no book, but a cobbler’s apron! (De Bury, ch. 17)[6]To pre-modern book collectors, the users of manuscripts were the most dangerous—and least controllable—element of their long-term care.[7] The abbot Johannes Trithemius in De Laude Scriptorum (1492–1494) expressed some confidence that subsequent owners of his books would treasure them:“why do we dwell on the care of books with many words? Those who love books doubtlessly treasure them and keep them even without a word from us”.[8]However, others were less optimistic about the long-term care of books, especially if they passed into the wrong hands. The author of Hoemen alle boucken bewaren sal om eewelic te duerene [How one shall preserve all books to last eternally], (1527), compiled a collection of rules on book “access, handling and storage”, aimed at ensuring that books lasted “many years …, yes, at least two hundred years”.[9] This text, probably aimed at children, indicates that the author had learned that these young people, themselves, were the book’s worst enemy. The last rule, added by the same scribe after the text’s completion, reads: “eighth, one should not let children learn from any books that one wants to preserve. Because whatever comes into their hands, as we see, it either stays there or it is ruined”.[10] There was evidently a precedent for books being ruined by children.Onfim's homework exercises and “I am a wild beast.”~ The label of Onfim’s self-portrait (ca. 1220 CE) (Onfim - Wikipedia)This is not the only child’s drawing that has been found in medieval manuscripts. In June 2014, a child’s drawings were unearthed on ancient birch-bark texts in the historical city of Vekliky Novgorod in north-western Russia.[11] Novgorod originated as a trading station for the Varangians, who traveled from the Baltic region to Constantinople by (possibly) late 10th century AD. Beresty was used as a substitute for paper, fabricated from birch bark. The bark was boiled to soften it, and then it was written on with a sharp stylus, pressing the letters into the paper.[12] The paper mostly comes, as you would expect, from privies. These were not valuable, carefully preserved documents, but bits of daily business, read and then discarded.Approximately 1,100 personal ‘tomes’ or pieces of beresty were buried in a type of clay that preserved hard objects made of metal and soft ones made of leather, or in this case, birch bark. Historians hypothesize that there are 20,000 similar specimens still waiting to be salvaged from the conducive anaerobic clay soil layers of the city environs.[13] The matrix preserved in near perfect condition, the spelling lessons, drawings and doodles,, made by a 7- year old boy named Onfim, who lived in Novgorod during the mid-13th century.Medieval Doodles Of A 7-Year Old Boy Preserved From NovgorodDaydreaming and knight-filled fantasies interrupted Onfim's spelling lessons, so much so that he went on to draw himself as an imposing warrior with a sword and spear, after just writing the first eleven letters of his alphabet in the upper-right corner.[14] And on closer inspection, one could also discern the horse upon which the ‘hero’ is mounted, along with the extended spear slaying his adversary – while the label of ‘Onfim’ makes the artist’s name clear.But of course, the imagination of 7-year old Onfim was not just limited to portraying himself as a hero. At times he took the fantastical route to depict himself as a ‘wild beast’ (as made clear by another label proclaiming – ‘I am a wild beast’).[15] The beast also seems to have a friendly attitude, as it carries a sign saying ‘Greetings from Onfim to Danilo’ – with Danilo possibly being Onfim’s schoolmate.[16]Drawings Made 700 Years Ago By a 7-Year-Old Russian Boy Named OnfimThe last specimen alludes to the quintessential scope of how a child loves his/her mother and father. Onfim sketched both his parents, thus mirroring a striking resemblance of how kids nowadays regularly draw their parents on preliminary school sketching projects.[17] Apart from the learning exercises and drawings he made on the bark as shown below, he also wrote texts from the Book of Psalms that were familiar to him. These texts include phrases like “Lord, help your servant, Onfim” and other partial texts from Psalms 6:2 and 27:3.[18]Now lastly, there is obviously more to these bark-inscribed medieval documents, beyond the adorable ambit of the daydreaming escapades of a 7-year old boy. To that end, some of the ‘adult’ letters conform to daily activities and responsibilities. For example, one of them lays a curse because of some monetary debt issue, while another talks about how a wife has suffered due to her rigorous husband.[19] Some of these documents also tread the poignant route, with one letter describing one brother’s plight with poverty to another brother.Letters from Old RussiaMost of the documents are written in the local dialect of old Russian, with a few in Finnish, Norse, or Old Church Slavonic (the liturgical language of the Slavic churches). Their authors are quite ordinary people: small merchants, the bailiffs of estates, a blacksmith, a cobbler, a turner of wooden bowls.[20] Styluses for writing are among the most common iron artifacts found in the digs.Those wishing to explore the beresty document in greater detail can click on the following link. Древнерусские берестяные грамотыColleen 1971My son's sketch is eerily reminiscent of one I drew 48 years ago of my father. I cannot remember a time that the framed and faded sketch of my dad looking like Mr. Potato Head on rollerskates was not proudly hung on his office wall behind his left shoulder. Each promotion up the corporate ladder, provided a newer, larger wall for display, and fancier lighting. On the day he retired after 45 years of service, it was the last item he took with him. Awards, certificates,diplomas meant nothing in comparison to his most prized possession- a portrait of himself signed by the artist before she could write.Footnotes[1] Child Doodles Discovered in 14th Century Manuscript[2] Young hands, old books: Drawings by children in a fourteenth-century manuscript, LJS MS. 361[3] Young hands, old books: Drawings by children in a fourteenth-century manuscript, LJS MS. 361[4] The Pictorial World of the Child[5] Children will be children – the doodles unearthed in a medieval manuscript[6] “Do not give your books to children!” and other medieval tips for taking care of books[7] The Manuscript Culture of the Middle Ages[8] http://Porck, M.
