Thalia (in ancient Greek Θάλεια / Tháleia or Θάλια / Thália, "the joyous, the flourishing", from θάλλειν / thállein, to flourish, to be verdant) was the muse who presided over comedy and idyllic poetry. She was the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the eighth-born of the nine Muses. She was portrayed as a young woman with a joyous air, crowned with ivy, wearing boots and holding a comic mask in her hand.

Parking a truck in nyc
MOTORISTS & PARKING
Parking a Truck or Commercial Vehicle
This page outlines the New York City traffic rules that apply to commercial vehicles. For the purposes of parking, stopping and standing, a truck is considered a commercial vehicle. The full listing of regulations for parking, stopping and standing a vehicle in New York City can be found in Section (pdf) 4-08 of the New York City Traffic Rules.
Definition of a Commercial Vehicle
For the purposes of parking, standing and stopping, a commercial vehicle is defined as a vehicle that
- bears commercial plates, and
- is permanently altered by having all seats and seat fittings, except the front seats, removed to facilitate the transportation of property (for vehicles designed with a passenger cab and a cargo area separated by a partition, the seating capacity within the cab shall not be considered in determining whether the vehicle is properly altered), and
- displays the registrant's name and address permanently affixed in characters at least three inches high on both sides of the vehicle, with such display being in a color contrasting with that of the vehicle and placed approximately midway vertically on doors or side panels.
For the purposes other than parking, stopping and standing rules, a vehicle designed, maintained, or used primarily for the transportation of property or for the provision of commercial services and bearing commercial plates is considered a commercial vehicle.
Vehicles from other states or countries bearing commercial or equivalent registration plates from other states or countries shall not be deemed trucks or commercial vehicles unless they are permanently altered and marked as required in the above bulleted list.
Parking, Standing and Stopping Rules for Commercial Vehicles
Additional restrictions may apply to these rules, especially in midtown Manhattan. See the Additional parking restrictions for more information.
Parking of unaltered commercial vehicles prohibited
No person shall stand or park a vehicle with commercial plates in any location unless it has been permanently altered with all seats and rear seat fittings, except the front seats, removed except that for vehicles designed with a passenger cab and a cargo area separated by a partition, the seating capacity within the cab shall not be considered in determining whether the vehicle is properly altered, and has the name and address of the owner as shown on the registration certificate plainly marked on both sides of the vehicle in letters and numerals not less than three inches in height, in compliance with Section 10-127 of the Administrative Code and is also in compliance with the definition of commercial vehicle .
No standing except trucks loading and unloading
Where a posted sign reads "No Standing Except Trucks Loading and Unloading," no vehicle except a commercial vehicle, or a service vehicle as defined in the Section 4-01(b) (pdf) of the New York City Traffic Rules, may stand or park in that area, for the purpose of expeditiously making pickups, deliveries or service calls, and except that in the area from 35th St. to 41st St., Avenue of the Americas to 8th Avenue, inclusive, in the Borough of Manhattan between the hours of 7 am and 7 pm, no vehicle except a truck as defined in Section 4-13(a) (pdf) may stand or park for the purpose of expeditiously making pickups, deliveries or service calls.
Angle standing or parking of commercial vehicles
Commercial vehicles standing or parking in authorized areas shall not be placed at an angle to the curb unless such positioning is essential for loading or unloading and then only for such period of time actually required for such purposes provided that a sufficient space shall be left clear for the passage of a vehicle between the angle parked vehicle and the center of the street, the opposite curb or a vehicle parked or standing thereat, whichever is closest. In no event shall an angle-parked vehicle occupy more than a parking lane, plus one traffic lane.
Parking of trailers
No person shall park any trailer or semi-trailer on any street or arterial highway, except while loading or unloading at off-street platforms, unless such trailer or semi-trailer is attached to a motor vehicle capable of towing it. Notwithstanding these provisions, where posted signs permit, a trailer or semi-trailer may park while unattached to a motor vehicle capable of towing it on streets in industrial zoned property as defined in the Zoning Resolution . Such trailers or semi-trailers may park for the length of time indicated on the posted signs. An owner of a trailer or semi-trailer parked pursuant to this provision shall protect the streets from damage that may be caused by parking the unattached trailer. All doors located on such trailers or semi-trailers must be locked while the trailers are parked.
Street storage of commercial vehicles prohibited
When parking is not otherwise restricted, no person shall park a commercial vehicle in any area, including a residential area, in excess of three hours.
Nighttime parking of commercial vehicles prohibited
No person shall park a commercial vehicle on a residential street, between the hours of 9 pm and 5 am In the case when a commercial vehicle is parked in violation of this rule, the burden of proof is placed on the person who received the summons, to prove that he or she was actively engaged in business at the time the summons was issued at a premises located within three City blocks of where the summons was issued. This paragraph shall not apply to vehicles owned or operated by gas or oil heat suppliers or gas or oil heat systems maintenance companies, the agents or employees thereof, or any public utility.
Vehicles equipped with platform lifts
Commercial vehicle may not be parked on any City street with a platform lift set in a lowered position while the vehicle is unattended.

Reconstructing the Greek Lyre
The story of Hermes and the first lyre is quite descriptive, and lends itself well to the imagination. According to the myth, Hermes used a grey iron scoop to hollow out the shell of a mountain tortoise, fastened cut stalks of reed across the back, and stretched ox hide across the front (the shell is providing the back here, if you needed a reference). He then plucked the intestine-strings (I simply can't get over that) with a plectrum, or a pick. (Homeric Hymn to Hermes, 31-53) I should mention, too, that I may have been incorrect in my earlier presumption that both the strings and the hide came from the same animal, as sources are in disagreement of whether the intestines were taken from a sheep or a cow.
Knowing this, it's now apparent why we no longer have any actual Greek lyres constructed in this way - considering it was made of mostly organic matter, it's unlikely that any of them would have avoided decomposition (which is a word I love to use in reference to music).
And while that's a bit of a disappointment, I've encountered many artists' depictions of the original lyre. Some, even, attempted to construct what they believed to be an accurate recreation seven-string tortoise-shell lyre using available materials, such as local tortoise-shells (which have been, in almost all cases, either North American or British) and various strings instead of intestine.
However, according to some scholars, these reproductions aren't necessarily accurate. There is a debate on whether the arms of the lute are, as these pictures have shown, flat. Essentially, most lyre enthusiasts believed the lyre to be able to be accurately represented in a 2-d diagram, when it is shown in a few rare 4th and 3rd Century B.C.E. Athenian vases (wherein the lyre is represented in its 3-d form) to have forward-curving arms.

Now, there is some speculation as to whether or not these curved-arm depictions are errors of perspective on the Greek Artists' part (exemplified by my final source, one of the editors of the American Journal of Archaeology).. But I wonder. The Greeks are certainly not notorious for inaccurate depictions. And (I'm so sorry you don't have access to the photographs yet - I'll update this entry when I get them!) looking at the other pictures, it seems that if it is a matter of perspective, it doesn't carry into the forms of the people or the other instruments.
I think that the curved-arm theory has merit; it would be much more beneficial for a musician to have a curved-armed lyre. Providing the size of the instrument stayed the same, this would alter the distance and tension on the strings, changing the pitch to a lower, more vibrant sound (allowing the string to vibrate in the third dimension uninhibited by the boundaries of the stretcher bars), and it would later lend itself much better to the later Byzantine method of bowing the strings (again, getting the arms out of the way of the strings has its clear advantages!).
I stumbled upon one such recreation, which may help you understand the shape I'm trying to convey:
Oddly, this build did not match the adjacent pictures in the article in regards to the curvature, but if I may be so bold, it seems to me that this is a more insightful design.
To find out the truth, one needs only to look at the artistic recreations.. In a 2-d representation (a vase, for example), a traditionally accepted lyre turned on its side would appear to be a turtle shell with a long, thick line coming out of the side. I haven't scoured every publication on the matter, but I have yet to see anyone playing something that looks like that. Another angle to take into account is that if the lyre were flat when placed on its side, it wouldn't lend itself well to a beautiful composition and would be rather confusing as a flat shape - perhaps Ancient Greek artists skewed the perspective for the sake of the greater composition. After all, according to Edith Hamilton, Greek poets held meter and rhythm in the same (if not greater) esteem than the content of their writings.
