  1. In Texas authority is derived from the State constitution that gets it’s Authority from the U. S. Constitution.  County Sheriffs who are elected by the citizens of the county hold police powers and the ability to grant same to police departments in their county.  In the 1970s all peace officers where given state wide authority none of this stop at the line stuff.

    It also empowers the State police, (Department of Public Safety) which regulates for example private investigators; who have to have liability insurance and collect sales tax and regulate security companies under the authority of the occupational code of Texas.

     

    California has some intresting laws, in San Fransico there is private police.   whact this movie.  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104647/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_87

  2. As recorded in Herodotus, The Histories.   An Athenian at the battle of Marthon with out spear or sword, just decide to edge punch the Persian in line against him, it broke the fellow's arm through his wicker shield.   He quickly informed those around him and the Persian line broke because the Greeks had figure out a weakness and punch their way to victory.

     

     

    The Greek's had schools that taught the battle and the "fencing".

    Under ideal conditions, the sound can be understood at 3 to 7 miles,[1] but interesting messages usually get relayed on by the next village. "The talking drums" or "jungle drums" is also a euphemism for gossip – similar to "the grapevine".

     

     

    AfricaNew Guinea and the tropical America, people have used drum telegraphy to communicate with each other from far away for centuries. When European expeditions came into the jungles to explore the primeval forest, they were surprised to find that the message of their coming and their intention was carried through the woods a step in advance of their arrival. An African message can be transmitted at the speed of 100 miles in an hour.

  5. Dear Sirs,

     

                This is a Fifth Edition question.  I have a Mage who cast a spell invisibility.  Can you make a perception roll against him with magesight.  Is he just a glowing ball of magic to someone with magesight?  Sounds stupid but we had a discussion and one stated he would rule that yes with magesight would spot the spell as the power is defined as magic.  Help with this please.
