.... along the top of the walls so guards could keep watch. Some castle walls had spaces at the top called embrassures, which allowed archers to shoot with the protection of the wall. These openings also permitted stones or boiling water to be thrown down on the enemy. (Encyclopedia Americana, p.790). Towers were built along castle walls at regular intervals to strengthen them and provide area for castle workers or visitors. Moats often surrounded castles for protection. Some people built castles on banks of lakes or rivers and channeled water to the moat. A drawbridge laid across the moat a .....

.... just and the unjust alike; a thing which would not happened if I were superintending the rains affairs. No, I would rain softly and sweetly on the just, but if I caught a sample of the unjust outdoors I would drown him” (World Literature 3721). In the novel The Prince and the Pauper, Clemens was able to underscore some of the social follies and injustices of his own time without actually having to attack them directly in the novel. Clemens did this by satirically treating the social and legal conventions of Tudor England. Clemens then assumed his readers would recognize for .....

.... Hofstede (1993) defines culture as ‘the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes one group or category of people from another’. Hofstedes research of different organisations and countries allowed him to make predictions on the way different societies operate, including their management processes and the theories that would be used in management. Morgan (1996) refers to culture as ‘the pattern of development reflected in a society’s system of knowledge, ideology, values, laws, and day-to-day ritual’. In subsequent writings he expands on organisat .....

.... there was no high artillery. They were stopped being used because the information was not that reliable to trust. Rifles and Sniping Gun's The Rifle Musket is the number two most used weapon. It's a muzzle loading Musket with one shot. The Musket was fifty-seven inches and it was long. It was weighed at ten pounds. The Enfield rifle was british and the Confederate's imported 900,000.

For example, designing a vehicle, a helicopter, etc., anything you want and then using the various pieces to bring it off into as most high technology and most fashionable as possible. It allows you to minimize the structure for maximum function. It is an abstract, structured toy. It allows a child to construct, within certain limits, what that child see in his or her mind, and then to attach his or her own creation, exploration, and imagination to the construction. It is good for parents to join in the game, but they must not take over and encourage the children to play and lea .....

Careful and attentive raising is non existent. The leaves are quickly dried and thrown into boxes for shipment to the rolling factory. Fine cigars are hand rolled, whereas all cigarettes are machine rolled. Including the type and quality of the leaf, rolling is the ultimate judge of whether a cigar is good or bad.

.... much like Porsche. And also the Honda NSX. The basic Boxter model did amazingly well on the market; at first having a waiting list, mainly due to the fully customisable interior and exterior. 78 different metallic paints and 48 different leathers brought about the main available choices to customers. The Porsche Boxter S, at $6000 greater expense, still has a 2-year waiting list. Despite the great profile the Boxter was building, Porsche decided not to invest into international advertising, and instead adopted a direct mail system in each of its countries of sale. Thus the only people re .....

.... but everyone thinks in a different way. For example, in order to speak to a non-English speaking person and clearly convey a message, both people need to know the basics of the same language. Associating this concept with the arts, it would be as difficult to communicate a concept of the arts with someone who is not educated in the arts. Another example would be that many foreigners sing American songs using their interpretation of our language. The arts are a language of their own. People understand the English language because they are educated for many years about the gra .....

.... Hempel to the point that there are rules and general laws that can be followed, but a historian's explanation is adequate if all he can provide is a sketch. The second group states that the general laws are not necessary and as long as the explanation provides an understandable narrative, it is complete. The final group believes that only one condition is necessary, and if more information is needed, one only needs to elaborate on that one condition. The Hempelians and the anti-Hempelians both have common ground. They are both engaged in the philosophy of history, but this is where the ag .....
