Godis för alla eller ingen!
Personalen på min skola har möjlighet och tillåtelse att äta godis på sina raster medan eleverna inte ens får ta med sig eget godis. Jag tycker för alla eller för ingen. Förbjud det helt eller tillåt det helt. Samma regler för godis ska gälla för alla på skolan.

Uttolkningen och omtolkningarna av den grekiska mytologin är betydligt äldre än mytologin i dess idag vanliga form. Redan grekerna själva fann dessa myter anstötliga och för disparata för att kunna tas på allvar. Deras försök att systematisera myterna gjorde att de relativiserades redan under antiken - de tolkades som allegorier för naturfenomen och äldre historiska skeenden. Till exempel eftersträvade Platon en abstrahering av tron, och enligt honom var berättelsen om Orfeus ett uttryck för själens odödlighet, och Aristoteles uppfattade berättelserna om kentaurerna som en omskrivning av de beridna jägare i Thessalien som befriade landskapet från vilda tjurar.
Därefter har kristna uttolkare betraktat berättelserna som hedniska förvrängningar av den kristna läran. Med nyplatonismen som teoretiskt ramverk har antikens mytologi och dess gestalter kunnat ses som allegorier för det kristna budskapet och som sådana kunnat tjäna sedelärande syften. Den grekiska mytologin utgjorde en självklar kulturell referensram i den kristna världen fram till den så kallade "mörka tiden" då det klassiska bildningsidealet föll i glömska.
Myternas ursprung var redan på Hesiodos tid förlorat i ett dunkelt förflutet. Dess mångfacetterade värld och gestalterna i den kan sägas återspegla dels det faktum att den grekiska religionen saknade sådant som heliga skrifter (i modern mening) och trosartiklar, men också graden av litterär bearbetning och ett inhomogent geografiskt område som gränsade till många andra kulturer. Det finns en risk att samlade framställningar av den grekiska mytologin kommer att inkludera många berättelser och versioner som utformats av berömda författare i klassisk tid (5-400-t. f.Kr.) eller senare, men som aldrig egentligen fanns som myter i religiös mening. Berättelsen om Antigone och hennes trotsande av övermakten byggde t ex på antydningar i de gamla sagorna men den tillspetsade utforminingen i Sofokles drama är rimligen skapad av Sofokles själv.
Den grekiska religionen saknade förkunnare och profeter, istället var det diktarna och oraklen som återgav detaljerna i den mytologiska världen och deras konsekvenser för människorna. Det är alltså förmodligen inte så att den grekiska mytologin entydigt återspeglar ett religiöst system som existerat vid någon specifik tidpunkt. Eftersom våra kunskaper om grekisk kult är ofullständiga, i synnerhet för äldre tid, är det också osäkert i vilken mån myterna någonsin har varit nära knutna till kulten och förklarat särskilda kultiska bruk.
One of the Discworld's most implacable gods, and very difficult to understand. He looks like a pleasant, middle-aged man, but his eyes are starry voids. It is possible (although difficult) to bargain with him, but proverbially impossible to cheat him, although this has been done at least once. (When Cohen the Barbarian rolled a 7 on a six-sided die by cleaving it in half in midair.) He is known to play games against The Lady using mortals as pawns, and always plays to win. His Temple is situated in the Gods' Quarter of Ankh-Morpork. It's a small, heavy, leaden temple, where hollow-eyed and gaunt worshippers meet on dark nights for predestined and fairly pointless rites. He is said to come from a world other than the Disc.
He appears in The Colour of Magic, Mort, Interesting Times and The Last Hero.
The Order first appears in Small Gods where they are described as having the responsibility of observing significant events so that they become 'history', instead of just things that happen. However, there is a slight reference to the Order in "Guards! Guards!", where at the end of the novel there are many bright orange robed men loading barrels and one specifically mentions the name Lobsang. They also have responsibility to see history follows the right track, as set out in the huge lead-bound History Books – 20,000 of them, ten feet high, with printing small enough to need a magnifying glass to read. "When people say it is written – it is written here." According to Small Gods, three people go at a time to access the books because once in the past one person used to go in alone, learn about the future, and won a large sum in bets before he was found out.
In Thief of Time we find that this is a simplification, and the main role of the monastery is to ensure anything happens at all. To do this, they have a number of methods for moving and storing time, for example by means of spinning cylinders called procrastinators (possibly an analogy with capacitors, a reservoir of electric charge). Procrastinators look like Tibetan prayer wheels, and are evocative of the Tipler Cylinder theory. (It having been established as early as  Mort,

Thud!,s that people's perception of time affects its flow on the Disc, the Monks must ensure this does not become a problem, by, as an example, taking some time from the middle of the ocean ('how much time does a codfish need?') and putting it in a busy Ankh-Morpork workshop with a deadline to meet.)
They also frequently need to enter the world, to take a more direct hand in events. It is for this reason that a number of monks have been trained as ninjas. Many of them have since been retrained by Lu-Tze, who believes most problems can be sorted out without resorting to martial arts.
Because of the Order's control of Time, the valley is permanently reliving a perfect day, with the cherry blossom beginning to fall (which is too bad if you actually want cherries.) Fortunately for Lu-Tze, at the end of Thief of Time, Lobsang Ludd, the new personification of Time, makes a slight adjustment to some of the valley's trees so as to give his tutor his own "perfect moment".

Skivvärlden volym 1

Agnes Nitt, alias Perdita. En ung kvinna som först skymtas i Herrskap och Häxor. I Masker söker hon lyckan vid Operan och är en av huvudkaraktärerna. Senare efterträder hon Viväcka Vitlöök i Lankers trio av häxor.
Albert, eller Alberto Malich. En gång känd som Skivans störste trollkarl och grundare av Osynliga Universitetet, numera Dödens betjänt. Albert finns med i många böcker, men ägnas kanske mest uppmärksamhet i Mort.
Angua, eller Delphine Angua von Überwald är varulv, kvinna och medlem i Ankh-Morporks stadsvakt. Hon dyker först upp i En man på sin vakt, där hon efter hand utvecklar ett vänskapligt, men något komplicerat förhållande med Morot.
Bagaget, en koffert med hundratals små ben tillverkat av intelligent päronträ. Tillhörde först Tvåblomster i Magins färg som sedermera gav bort det till Rensvind. Bagaget är ganska vresigt och våldsamt, men har en fantastisk förmåga att följa sin ägare oavsett tid och rum och det är med i flera böcker.
Bibliotekarien, orangutang och överbibliotekarie på Osynliga Universitetets bibliotek. Bibliotekarien var ursprungligen en människa, men råkade ut för en magisk olycka i Magins färg och har sedan dess motsatt sig alla välmenade försök att förvandla honom tillbaka, eftersom han fann sin nya skepnad rätt fördelaktig och trivs med att få sin lön i bananer.
Binky, en stolt vit springare, Dödens trogna häst, och därför avsevärt mycket intelligentare än andra hästar. Förekommer tillsammans med sin herre i flera böcker och i några, bland annat i Levande Musik, även tillsammans med Susan

As well as the 'ordinary' rooms, maintained for appearance and the benefit of Albert, the Domain contains the life-timer room, where the sands drain away. Off of the life-timer room, there is another room in which the life-timers of the gods rest (as seen in Hogfather). And there is the Library, everyone's "autobiography" is being written by itself. Both of these rooms are even more conceptual and arbitrary in dimension than the rest of clearest example of its status as a refined metaphor.

Pratchett has stated on numerous occasions that the presence of the City Watch makes Ankh-Morpork stories 'problematic', as stories set in the city that do not directly involve Vimes and the Watch often require a Watch presence to maintain the story—at which point, it becomes a Watch story by default.
