The Pattern. The pattern of this discipline procedure is progressive - from oral warning(s); written reprimand(s); and suspension(s); demotions; to the ultimate penalty of discharge. However, there are cases where the action is of such a serious nature that suspension or discharge is justifiable even on a first offense. Progressive discipline is a program in which the penalties become progressively more severe in accordance with progressive seriousness of the infraction(s). Suspension may be with or without pay.
The Pattern prefixal agreement • The Kipsigis complementizer consists of the root of the lexical verb le ‘say’ and a person/number agreement prefix.5
The Pattern suffixal agreement • Xxxxxxx and Xxx (2019) report a pattern of what they call object agreement, where the complementizer (optionally) agrees with the indirect object of the matrix verb (the examples are all from speech verbs).
The Pattern. It is much easier if you can find a board that you can use for a pattern to take measurements from. I had considered ordering one, and I would have paid the $100.00 for one on Amazon. However, one of my grade 8 students had a board that I liked the shape of and arranged to have the board in my office to use for a month or so. It did not take me month make the pattern, but I did this in my spare time so it took a while. (Thanks to Xxxx, one of my grade 8 students, I did not have to purchase a board to use as a pattern. What I was looking for was the correct amount of drop. The second photo illustrates this. I liked this amount of curvature and so do my students.) I started by finding the centre of the pattern board. I used masking tape and taped a line down the centre of the board. I then divided the length of the board into 2-inch divisions. Once the board was marked out, I used a Xxx Valley profile tool to find the shape of the board at the desired location. (Xxxx’s board laid out with my tape grid.) I decided to change the direction of the ribs in what I refer to as the hip area. I wanted to make sure that this feature looked the way it should on the board and I felt that changing the direction of these ribs was the way to go. In hindsight, it seemed to work well. (My Xxx Valley profile gauge allowed me to somewhat accurately copy the profile of the pattern board.) (For the cross ribs, I simply cut the line that I made with the profile gauge. This was a test piece.) Material: Since I make and pay for the material used to make all the jigs that I use in the shop, I try to keep the cost of materials to a minimum. I tried to limit the pieces of the jig to one sheet of ¾- inch MDF. I ripped two 12-inch strips from the sheet. I doubled up two 12-inch x 48-inch pieces to make up the main support for the top and bottom forms. From the remainder of the sheet, I ripped enough 4 1/2-inch strips to make all the rib pieces. I had about a 5-inch strip left over at the end. One of the 4 1/2-inch strips was cut into a 48-inch length and used to create the top and bottom of the main centre rib or spar. The remainder of the 4 1/2-inch strips were cut into 1-foot lengths. With the upper and lower forms cut from one piece, the bottom and top were always a perfect match.
The Pattern. 5. The Lord of the universe hath never raised up a prophet nor hath He sent down a Book unless He hath established His covenant with all men, calling for their acceptance of the next Revelation and of the next Book; inasmuch as the outpourings of His bounty are ceaseless and without limit.
