Description
Skeletal animation is a technique in computer animation in which a character
is represented in two parts: a surface representation used to draw the character
(called skin or mesh) and a hierarchical set of interconnected bones (called
the skeleton or rig) used to animate (pose and keyframe) the mesh. While
this technique is often used to animate humans or more generally for organic
modeling, it only serves to make the animation process more intuitive and the
same technique can be used to control the deformation of any object — a door,
a spoon, a building, or a galaxy.
This technique is used in virtually all animation systems where simplified
user interfaces allows animators to control often complex algorithms and a huge
amount of geometry; most notably through inverse kinematics and other "goaloriented" techniques. In principle, however, the intention of the technique is never to imitate real anatomy or physical processes, but only to control the deformation of the mesh data.

The term law has no assigned meaning. It is used in a variety of senses. Although different writers
have attempted to explain the term Law, no generally accepted explanation has emerged.
The study of the nature of law is known as Jurisprudence. Persons who explained the term law
from the same point of view form a school of jurisprudence/thought.
The word jurisprudence derives from the Latin term jurisprudentia, which means “the study,
knowledge, or science of law.” In the United States jurisprudence commonly means the philosophy
of law. Legal philosophy has many aspects, but four of them are the most common.
The first and the most prevalent form of jurisprudence seek to analyze, explain, classify, and
criticize entire bodies of law. Law school textbooks and legal encyclopaedias represent this type
of scholarship.
The second type of jurisprudence compares and contrasts law with other fields of knowledge
such as literature, economics, religion and the social sciences.
The third type of jurisprudence seeks to reveal the historical, moral, and cultural basis of a
particular legal concept.
The fourth body of jurisprudence focuses on finding the answer to such abstract questions
as “What is law?” and “How do judges (properly) decide cases?

Taxation is the part of public finance that deals with the means by which the government raises revenue from the public by imposing taxes which revenue is used by the government to provide goods and services to the public or its citizens (to carry out government functions). Taxation may be referred to as the revenue raising activity of the government. Public Finance is the department of economic theory that deals with public expenditure and revenue. Economics deals with resource allocation and seeks to answer the three questions of: who to produce, how to produce and for whom to produce. We will start by exploring the government expenditure, which is characterized by the expected activities of a government. We will then look at the taxation as source of revenue to finance the government expenditure
