Despise

Take away the negative connotation and despise signifies that a Lawmaker looks down from his perch at the acme of the Triangle of a Law to the conduct flowing from a Source to a Recipient through circumstances at its base. One can imagine how the meaning of despise acquired its negative connotation when one thinks about the arrogance of many Lawmakers who prefer to place burdens on others and not upon themselves.

Direction

Direction is a property of a flow of conduct from Source to Recipient through circumstances. The flow of conduct is one way, i.e., mono-directional. The Source is upstream; the Recipient is downstream.

Duty

A duty is a vehicle that carries a Lawmaker's opinion to the citizenry. it is used when the focus of a Lawmaker is upon a Source. A Lawmaker binds a duty onto a Source. It is synonymous with a command and a right. A duty, command and right are the three vehicles of Regulation. It means that a Lawmaker wants a Source to do either affirmative or negative conduct.

Even though clause of a three part sentence

The even though clause of a three part sentence holds facts that are irrelevant for the main clause of a three part sentence to operate. The other parts of a three part sentence are a main clause and an if clause.

Externalize

Externalization is one of the two stages of the process of making a law. Having formed an opinion with regard to the polarities of a flow of conduct in the first stage of the process of making a law, a Lawmaker externalizes the opinion formed by placing it on a vehicle that carries them to the citizenry. Externalization deals with the vehicles that carry a Lawmaker's opinion to the citizenry. Regulation and Deregulation have their own vehicles and the number of them is three. The vehicles of Regulation are synonymous with each other; the vehicles of Deregulation are also synonymous with each other. There are three because the focus of a Lawmaker is three, that is, there is a vehicle for each of the focuses (foci) of a Lawmaker. Command, duty, right are the vehicles of Regulation. Permission, privilege (no-duty) and no-right are the vehicles of Deregulation.

Extrapolation

Extrapolation occurs when a Lawmaker binds a right, duty, no-right or privilege (no-duty) to someone other than a Source or a Recipient.

Facts

Although the number of facts is infinite, the best way to arrange them is as conduct flowing from a Source to a Recipient through circumstances.

Flow

Conduct flows from a Source to Recipient through circumstances. In other words, conduct is dynamic not static. It is either on or off. When on, conduct is affirmative; When off, conduct is negative.

Focus

Focus is the target of scrutiny of a Lawmaker who despises conduct flowing from a Source to a Recipient through circumstances. From the acme of The Triangle of Law , a Lawmaker focuses upon a Source doing conduct or a Recipient receiving conduct. These focuses (foci) are represented by the legs of The Triangle of Law . The focus of a Lawmaker, however, may not be concentrated on a Source or a Recipient. It may be broader, more amorphous. It may try to take in conduct in its entirety as it flows from a Source to a Recipient through circumstances. In short, the focus of a Lawmaker shifts from Source, to Recipient, to neither Source nor Recipient. Three, therefore, is the number of focuses (foci) of a Lawmaker.
