Chivalry

An idea developed first by Queen Eleanor of England. Basically, it encouraged gentelmenly behavior between knights, and proposed a system of courting ladies to gain their hearts instead of dragging them home by their hair (sarcasm).

The White Knight very politely sliced his opponents head off and carried it back to his lady. He slept on the couch that night.

civil-service

To civil-service. Verb form of "civil service", used by co-workers at an unnamed government agency. It is means to affably but vaguely agree to aggressive demands for work by those outside your chain of command, and then go back to whatever you were (or were not) doing, secure in the knowledge that there will be no consequences. What anyone would do without fear of the lash.

That consultant babe from the Commissioner's office came by asking for a detailed report on our project status, so I civil-serviced her and then went to the retirement party on the fifth floor.

civil life movement

Greatly accelerating movement for a more civil society. The movement is for democratic solutions that involve the public at large and not through special interest groups solutions that have only perpetuated violence. They are for providing more public health to assure mental fitness. And they are against increasing the more violent types of methods and technologies that have only accentuated the problem of violence. While the issue of violence has always been debated and discussed through democratic means it has not always gotten very far with regards to effective public policy. After repeated police killings, street violence, massacres in schools and public places the youth have taken charge and started to effectively lead on this issue of a more civil life democracy free of violence.

The Civil Life Movement has lingered through the ages, making incremental progress on major issues, such as human rights, civil rights, and minority rights. However, it has also neglected some of the most fundamental issues, such as the right to be free of violence and violent methods of dispute resolution. After repeated failures to keep massacres and even domestic violence under control, the youth have organized Enough Rallies to focus on effective and human policies to reduce violence, and to solve problems democratically as a people instead of leaving it to special interest groups.

Civil World War

A history term, which includes a civil war, where other countries from around the world help out. The Vietnam war was a civil world war, since it was a civil war, that also included a lot of countries in the rest of the world.

"Do you think the American Revolution was a worse Civil World War than the Vietnam war?"

Civil supervisor

A special kind of a person who deals with irreplaceable (in thier own minds) operators, leading hands, engineers, projects managers and clients on the daily. Keeps everyone from life in prison sentences because of thier eccentric ideas that are the engineers/project managers only way to solving the simplest problems to get the project completed on time and normally to some diet of standard.

If that engineer makes the civil supervisor build that to the drawings he has another thing coming. That engineer/project manager is dreaming if he thinks he is going to win this argument with the civil supervisor. Did you hear that engineer tried to tell the surveyor and civil Supervisor what to do... he's in trouble now.
