"Henry Emlyn (1729–1815) was an English architect. Life Emlyn resided at Windsor. He was elected a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London 25 June 1795. He died at Windsor 10 December 1815, in his 87th year, and was buried on the 19th in St. George's Chapel. A tablet was erected to his memory in the Bray chantry. Works Emlyn published A Proposition for a new Order in Architecture, with rules for drawing the several parts, London, 1781 (2nd and 3rd editions, 1784); this consisted ‘of a shaft that at one-third of its height divided itself into two, the capitals having oak leaves for foliage, with the star of the order of the garter between the volutes.’ He introduced this order (the point of division being covered by an escutcheon, and the foliage being replaced by ostrich plumes) in the porch of his own house, and in the tetrastyle portico at Beaumont Lodge, near Windsor, which (except part of the west wing) was erected by him for Henry Griffiths in 1790. George III assigned to Emlyn some alterations in St. George's Chapel, Windsor, which were executed (1787–90) entirely after his designs, and preserved a due harmony with the original work. The restoration included "the screen to the choir, executed in Coade stone, with the organ case, the altar, and the king's and additional stalls".

"Sylvia was a comic strip by American cartoonist Nicole Hollander that offered commentary on political, social and cultural topics--and on cats--primarily in the voice of its title character, Sylvia. The strip was introduced on March 21, 1980. Distributed to newspapers nationally by Tribune Media Services, Sylvia appeared online at Hollander’s blog, Bad Girl Chats, but that domain now redirects to a commercial site. On March 26, 2012, Hollander announced "Sylvia's retirement from the newspaper business."Gardner, Alan. "Nicole Hollander Retires Sylvia After 33 Years" The Daily Cartoonist (March 28, 2012). Publication history Sylvia began as a continuation of Hollander’s cartoons for a feminist magazine, The Spokeswoman, collected in Hollander's 1979 book of cartoons, I’m in Training to Be Tall and Blonde. The book's success led Tribune Media Services to distribute Sylvia to newspapers as a daily comic strip beginning in 1980.Power, Amy.
