Slaid 1. Henry Ford Henry Ford in the eyes of of many, the leading figure of modern capitalism: he gave us Fordism- not just the a way of manufacturing but a new form of intustrial organisation. Indeed, according to Henry himself, he 'invented the modern age'. His vision was that all his employees could afford his products. He also invented the modern corporation- yet the Ford Motor Company was almsot wholly driven by the needs of production. Finance, marketing, cost accounting, managerial structure, and all the other accoutrements of modern corporations were of little or no intrest to Henry Ford. Henry Ford also regarded himself as a leader of the American people- as indeed were all business people in his eyes. But his belief that he
When we take a look at the word named „price“, what does it mean? A price usually is seen as a number, as how much something costs. Things can be „overpriced“, but never „overvalued“. An item of high value could have no price, but at the same time an high priced item, could have no value. It’s this way because people see differently, people have different memories and emotions to remember. But as in this world today, price matters. People can’t afford anything, price means something as well, it can show how wealthy you are, how much someone can mean to you. Price is just a number, it shows how much something pays. Price is basically a number that shows how much money you got to pay for a thing. Value is something that depends on a person. For certain kind of people, some things can have value, some not. Value can mean a lot of things for people, for an example, lets take a diamond ring for an example

· The main stage had a large trap door through which actor who played the parts of ghosts and spirits could rise and disappear · At the back of the main stage was a small curtained inner stage used for indoor scenes · Above the inner stage were two galleries · The first level could be used as a balcony · Musicians performed from the second level, and sound effects, such as thunder or the ringing of a bell, came from the hut on top of the stage roof · Those who could afford it watched the plays from seats in the galleries · For a penny, less wealthy spectators, called groundlings, could stand in the yard · The yard was open to the sky, and the stage was lit by daylight · Performances were given in mid-afternoon before an audience of about 2000 · No curtain rose to indicate the start of the play or fell to signal the close of an act · To begin the play, actors entered by one of the two doors at the rear of the stage, and
Owning and renting Homelessness The future Houses, not flats Detached house not only ensures privacy, it is also a status symbol. Even a modest detached house, surrounded by garden, gives the rerequired suggestion of rural life. Most people would be happy to live in a cottage, and if this is a thatched cottage so much the better. Most people try to avoid living in blocks of flats. Flats, they feel, provide the least amount of privacy. The people who live in flats are those who cannot afford to live anywhere else. The dislike of living in flats is very strong despite of that they are very comfortable. People said they felt cut off from the world all those floors up. The new highrise blocks quickly deteriorated. Private property and public property Home as a castle implies a clear demarcation between private property and public domain. Flats involve uncertainties. Uncetainties perhaps explain why the ,,communal" living expected of flatdwellers has been unsuccessful.

mines, crawling through tunnels too narrow and low to take an adult. Some children worked as errand boys, crossing sweepers, shoe blacks, and they sold matches, flowers and other cheap goods. During the Victorian era, the population grew immensely. At the end of 19th century the population had grown three times bigger in Great Britain! That made wages much lower, because more people were looking for jobs. Many people couldn't afford places to live and had to live on the streets. Slums started appearing in bigger towns. Crime rate was also rising because of this: many homeless children lived by stealing and respectable Victorians started seeing poor people as a threat to society. That is one of the reasons why workhouses were made. Workhouses Workhouses were supposed to solve the problem of poverty, because wealthy people believed that poor people were poor only because they were lazy(actual causes were overpopulation,

Although the primary purpose of the mosque is to serve as a place of prayer, it is alsom important to the Muslim community as a place to meet and study. ,,Zakat" is giving a fixed portion of accumulated wealth by those who can afford it to help poor or needy and for those employed to collect Zakat.

It has an element of entertaining display, we expect literature to be in some sense entertaining, or, to afford pleasure. WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES LITERATURE PLEASANT?

During 118 years of Tudor rule, England became richer than ever before. As the country became wealthier, towns grew, beautiful houses were built and schools and colleges were set up. Arts and crafts flourished too. England was home to great painters, writers and musicians. School in tudors time Not many children went to school in Tudor times. Those that did go were mainly the sons of wealthy or working families who could afford to pay the attendance fee. Boys began school at the age of 4 and moved to grammar school when they were 7. Girls were either kept at home by their parents to help with housework or sent out to work to bring money in for the family. Boys were educated for work and the girls for marriage and running a household. The wealthiest families hired a tutor to teach the boys at home. Many Tudor towns and villages had a parish school where the local vicar taught boys to read and write.

Alaska is separated from the continental US by Canada. The history of the USA began when England started creating colonies in the North America in the 1600s. The colonies became independent States and joined to form the "United States" in the 1700s. The USA expanded westward in the 1800s and reached the Pacific Ocean. As it grew, it became the greatest industrial power in the world. It wanted to stay out of European problems, but in the two World Wars, it decided that it could not afford to let Germany win. In the 1940s it became the leader of the West and organized an alliance of the democracies. Today it is the only superpower left in the world. Tensions between American colonials and the British during the revolutionary period of the 1760s and early 1770s led to the American Revolutionary War. On June 14, 1775, the Continental Congress, convening in Philadelphia, established a Continental Army under the command of George Washington. Proclaiming that "all
When the MPs address each other they don't say the names directly but they address them as "my right honourable friend from Winchester" etc. This was created to take off the heat of a debate. An MP's life The informality of the Commons may result from the fact that in history the members were supposed to be ordinary people just representing people. This way the MPs were not even paid until the 20th century. This way only rich people were able to afford being a member of the Parliament. Even now they don't get paid very much one MP has to share an office and a secretary with two other MPs. Most MPs are full-time politicians. But the old tradition where the MPs have other jobs reflects from the working hours of today. The Parliament doesn't sit in the morning. Work time is "gentlemen's hours" and they start their work later. They have a lot of holidays too. But it isn't as easy as it seems. Actually an MPs spends more
The fast is to encourage a feeling of nearness to God, and during it Muslims should express their gratitude for and dependence on him, atone for their past sins, and think of the needy. Sawm is not obligatory for several groups for whom it would constitute an undue burden. For others, flexibility is allowed depending on circumstances, but missed fasts usually must be made up quickly. 3) Alms-Giving "Zakt" is giving a fixed portion of accumulated wealth by those who can afford it to help the poor or needy, and also to assist the spread of Islam. It is considered a religious obligation (as opposed to voluntary charity) that the well-off owe to the needy because their wealth is seen as a "trust from God's bounty". The Qur'an and the hadith also suggest a Muslim give even more as an act of voluntary alms-giving . 4) Pilgrimage The pilgrimage, called the Hajj during the Islamic month of Dhu al-Hijjah in the city of Mecca

British have idealized vision of the countryside and nature. To them, To them the countryside means peace and quiet, beauty, good health and no crime. Even if they can't afford buying a cottage in the countryside the British spend a lot of their time with nature. They grow plants gardening is one of the most popular hobbies in the country.

Topic Libraries Tallinn English College 8b form 2007 1. Introduction A library is a collection of books. Libraries are maintained by a public body such as an institution or an individual. These collections are used by people who choose not to (or cannot afford) purchase an extensive collection themselves or who need professional assistance with their research. However, with the collection of media other than books, many libraries are now also access points for maps, prints or other documents and artworks such as microfilm, audio tapes, CDs, cassettes and DVDs. So, modern libraries are being redifined as places to get access to information in many formats and from many sources. In addition to providing materials, they also provide the services of specialists who are experts in matters related to finding and organizing inf...

The Grand Tour as the main source of inspiration and part of education The Grand Tour was a pilgrimage. Young men (later women also) got to know the history, especially the Renaissance. During that trip, they also learned different skills that prepared them for a leadership position at home. Only the wealthy could afford that because it lasted several years. It started from Dover, passed Paris (learned dancing, riding), Florence, Pisa (studying Renaissance), Rome (study Classical ruins), Greece and ended in Dover. It also passed many other places, but these were the most important. Greece was important because ancient Greece gave inspiration and it started the Greek revival. 6. Characteristics of romantic nature poetry and main representatives Characteristics of romantic nature poetry:
Advantages ✔ One of the major advantages of this farming technique is that the crop yield is high. ✔ It helps the farmer to easily supervise and monitor the land and protect his livestock from being hurt or hounded by dangerous wild animals. ✔ With the introduction of intensive farming, farm produce, such as vegetables, fruits, and poultry products have become less expensive. It also aids in solving the worldwide hunger problems to a great extent. This means that common people can now afford a balanced and nutritious diet. ✔ Many opine that organic food can be afforded only by the elite strata of the society. Apart from that, large farming spaces are required to cultivate organic crops using natural manure. However, with the introduction of intensive farming, the space, equipment, and other requirements for farming are less and more economical. ✔ The EPA (Environment Protection Agency) has set certain rules and regulations on how

lead to tyranny. Locke's theory of limited government is more progressive, as opposed to Hobbes account, as it is the majority will that is the supreme power, but it is important to ask who the majority is as this remains a valid question. Around the time of Locke's major works only certain groups within British society were allowed to take part in the democratic process, these were male landowners and men who could afford to rent property over a certain rateable value. During the 18th century, the House of Commons did not come close to representing the actual distribution of the population and wealth across the country. The system was synonymous with corruption and bribery and according to Thompson (1963, pp. 888 - 901) the "rotten boroughs" such as Gatton in Surrey had only seven voters and returned two members of parliament. The franchise was only available to an elite
grounds include alcohol-consumption (prohibition), abortion and stem cell research. In various historical and present-day societies institutionalized religions have established systems of earthly justice which punish crimes against the divine will and specific devotional, organizational and other rules under specific codes, such as Islamic sharia or Roman Catholic canon law. Homelessness Homelessness is the condition and social category of people who lack housing, because they cannot afford, or are otherwise unable to maintain, regular, safe, and adequate shelter. The term "homelessness" may also include people whose primary nighttime residence is in a homeless shelter, in an institution that provides a temporary residence for individuals intended to be institutionalized, or in a public or private place not designed for use as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings. A small number of people choose to
bacteria, but no the patient. The most important antibiotic is penicillin. Doctors can now also transplant organs such as the heart and the kidneys. 3. The National Health Service The National Health Service was established in Britain after World War II. The government funds it. All taxpayers contribute to its support through insurance payment. NHS made it possible that the benefits once available only for insured persons, or those who could afford it or as a form of charity, became available to everyone. The patient is free to choose his doctor, and change to another if he wishes to do so. The doctor may accept private patients while taking part in the service. About 97% of the whole population of Great Britain is using the service. Only persons whose names are on the medial register can parties as doctors in the NHS. The minimum qualification for registration requires, for a doctor 5 to 7 years' training
She tries to win over substitute teacher Scott Delacorte (Justin Timberlake), who is also wealthy. Amy Squirrel (Lucy Punch), a dedicated teacher and colleague of Elizabeth, also pursues Scott while the school's gym teacher, Russell Gettis (Jason Segel), makes advances on Elizabeth which she rejects.[3] Elizabeth plans to get surgery to enlarge her breasts, believing she is being overlooked for women with larger chests. However, she cannot afford the $10,000 procedure. To make matters worse, Scott admits that he has a crush on Amy, only viewing Elizabeth as a friend. Elizabeth attempts to raise money for the surgery by participating in her 7th grade class car wash in provocative clothing and by manipulating parents to give her money for more school supplies and tutoring, but her efforts are not enough. Amy, acting on the growing resentment between them due to her pursuit of Scott and ignoring of school rules, attempts to warn the

We passed some beautiful houses on our way to the beach. There were some people at the station. There was some sand on the building site. In extraordinary situations or when we want to emphasize something no article is used. Poor people cannot afford to live in beautiful houses. There were people inside the house on fire! There was sand on my plate! The Indefinite Article is used when referring to an indefinite object (just any of the kind). Could you lend me a pen?

problems to stop and may never be stopped. It will take a long period of time to begin the process to bring it to an end, but it will be nice to maybe some day have a true free market without the problem of a free rider. 7 Freeriding Problem on Public Transport Freeriding insurance United we stand strong! "P-kassan" the freeriding insurance is a cooperation between people in similar situations. We do not afford the fare or do not want to pay it. You pay a small amount to the fund and if you get caught freeriding your bill is payed. The idea of this insurance is not new. It has been tried before and for quite some time, especially by students in the university cities, and has worked well even though in a small scale. The difference is that we have a greater goal than just helping each other to freeride. We want free public transportation, owned by us together and controlled by the workers in it.

services – many people with legal problems don’t get any advice at all. To remedy these shortcomings there are many publicly funded institutions that offer advice for free. These institutions often deal with housing, employment, immigration and consumer problems. For a fair legal system it is important that no one is denied legal services because he cannot afford to pay for them. For that the state provides funding which provides access to legal services to people who could not afford it otherwise. These services are categorized as legal advice and assistance, which provides funding for legal matters short of appearance in court and legal aid, which includes court appearance. There are also many people with legal problem who don’t seek any legal advice at all. Often because the person doesn’t realize that the problem is a legal one, is unaware of the appropriate legal service, is afraid of expenses or cannot find any legal service available.
Secular art came in to its own during this period with the rise of cities, foundation of universities, increase in trade, the establishment of a money-based economy and the creation of a bourgeois class who could afford to patronize the arts and commission works resulting in a proliferation of paintings and illuminated manuscripts.

ManOS Overview Everything below is rooted in my core value of creating selfesteem. My actions today focus on work, girls, travel & having fun. My career is the ultimate leverage point as this creates the money, selfesteem and confidence.

soil characteristics, Developing the distribution and transportation mechanism of the compost from the biogas facilities, The calculation of contribution that biogas will have on environmental health The researching of social economical effects on biogas production technology on rural areas. Especially in the last years, the increasing of fuel costs in Turkey has been affecting the poor section of the public economically. Because the poor section can not afford these fuels, they prefer to use wood so this causes to reduce the forestall areas which are already insufficient. This is why proper Works and investments should be done on new alternative energy sources. Conclusion Every day more and more carbon dioxide is added to atmosphere. Biogas can prevent the further increase of carbon dioxide in atmosphere. I feel that by using biogas we can stop the increase of global warming but we can't reduce already
of the Mini's strengths, because of that it is easier to drive in the city and also easier to find a parking space. Although Mini may look small outside it is still commodious inside. Besides that Mini has a good resale value; consumers can get high percentage of their money when they decide to resell their Mini. Weaknesses Mini is a premium car brand and because of that it has a higher price compared with the volume car brands. Because of the hard financial times, consumers cannot afford themselves a premium car brands and might switch over to the volume car brands. Volume car brands have been very innovative in the last years and are not so much behind from the premium car brands in qualities anymore. Therefore in the car market the biggest sufferer would probably be premium car brand manufacturers like Mini. Their demand has decreased already notably during the credit crunch and redundancies have been made in the plants. Mini is only focusing
When data gets accumulated at such a rapid pace and in such huge volumes, the first concern is its storage. Traditional data storage methods and technology are just not enough to store big data and retain it well. Enterprises today need a shift to cloud-based data storage solutions to store, archive and access big data effectively. [21] Storing high quantities of data doesn't come cheap. Small and medium-sized businesses are struggling to afford the initial set up, migration, but when the overhauling cost is taken care of, then big data acts as an incredible revenue generator for digital enterprises [21]. But when the big data is successfully set up, maintaining it becomes a big issue, as big data is highly versatile. Data must be organized by its origin and structured, as data can come from an offline or online source, and it can be either structured and unstructured. [21]
In many Muslim countries, reminders called Adhan (call to prayer) are broadcast publicly from local mosques at the appropriate times. The prayers are recited in the Arabic language, and consist of verses from the Qur'an. 5|Page · Zakat, or almsgiving. This is the practice of giving based on accumulated wealth, and is obligatory for all Muslims who can afford it. A fixed portion is spent to help the poor or needy, and also to assist the spread of Islam. The zakat is considered a religious obligation (as opposed to voluntary charity) that the welloff owe to the needy because their wealth is seen as a "trust from God's bounty". The Qur'an and the hadith also suggest a Muslim give even more as an act of voluntary almsgiving (sadaqah). Many Shi'ites are expected to pay an additional amount in the form of a
Next to the gentlemen were ordinary freemen of the towns. By the end of the Middle Ages it was possible for a serf to become a freeman if he worked for 7 years in a town craft guild. Town offered to poor men to become rich & successful. At the same time many successful merchant families were obtaining farmland. In the beginning the guilds protected the production or trade of a whole town, later they protected only those already enjoying membership or who could afford to buy it. The poorer skilled workers tried to join together, these were the first efforts to form a trade union. ,,Factories" in different places in Europe. Wages rose faster than the prices, but signs of future social & econimic crisis (more sheep, less foof crops, fences). In the 15th cent. A new middle class in towns was developing.

Distinctive consumption becomes a life project wherein ‘the particularity of the assemblage of goods, clothes, practices, experiences, appearance and bodily dispositions’ are designed together into a lifestyle (Featherstone, 1987, p. 59). Lifestyle practices such as habits of dressing, what to eat, how to spend leisure time and even ‘favoured milieux’ become ‘decisions not only about how to act but who to be’ (Giddens, 1991, p. 81). As increased consumer choice may afford a dizzying array of life options (Gergen, 1991), the stylising of a distinctive mode of living also promises the opportunity to anchor one’s self amidst the cacophony of liquid modernity (Bauman, 2000). Featherstone (1987) does question, however, whether lifestyles actually cut across structures such as class and culture, as the politics of consumption are still mired in economic asymmetries. Nonetheless, Giddens
publication of The Whitsun Weddings was “The captivating accuracy with which there am catches the physical feel of life in England in our Time” (1975, 13). One of the mechanisms that Larkin uses to catch the reader is the presence of daily objects, is which Larkin denominates “the furniture of our lives” (1983, 211) 102. Bruce K. Martin affects this rooting of the poetry of Larkin in his time when affirming: “Taken together, his poems afford a remarkable panorama of British life at mid-century, particularly as it has been lived in the towns of the North and Midlands”. (1989, 144). Between the famous works: “Awful Foot” (T315, 22) of “Dockery and is”; “That bases” (119, 10) of “Home is Under Sad”; or those telephones that “crouch” (T333, 45) in “Aubade”. That is to say, that for Larkin, if the poetry must be originated in the experience, nothing can be left outside

The beginning of modern public library begins around 15th century when individuals started to donate books to towns. The growth of a public library system in the United States started in the late 19th century and was much helped by donations from Andrew Carnegie. This reflected classes in a society: The poor or the middle class had to access most books through a public library or by other means while the rich could afford to have a private library built in their homes. The advent of paperback books in the 20th century led to an explosion of popular publishing. Paperback books made owning books affordable for many people. Paperback books often included works from genres that had previously been published mostly in pulp magazines. As a result of the low cost of such books and the spread of bookstores filled with them (in addition to the creation of a

They found that they were not ropey and that they can afford same things men did. It found its way into fashion in 1920. boyish style. In 1930. their style changed to more feminine and sexiness was in fashion. Hair was grown longer, they wore shoes with higher heels and their dresses were shorter. The progress ended with World War II, when materials had strict regulations and women had to do men's work again. Therefore, women dressed more practical, but still feminine.
Naturally, NPM is more than a fashion; as already stated, it is a genuine ideology, or based on one, the neo-liberal creed, in the sense that ideologies are reduced perspectives of reality, reified by their believers because they cannot handle the complexity of the latter. But the power of fashion in itself should never be underestimated, and as has been rightly said, Public sector reform is in fashion and no self-respecting government can afford to ignore it. How a fashion is established is one of the most intriguing questions of public policy. Part of the answer lies in policy diffusion brought about by the activities of international officials (whose zeal for administrative reform mysteriously stops short at the door of their own organizations), by meetings of public administrators, academics, and the so-called policy entrepreneurs. (Wright 1997: 8) Indeed,
With those who cherish higher ambitions, the desire for wealth is entertained with a view to power and influence and the means of bestowing favours; Marcus Crassus, for example, not long since declared that no amount of wealth was enough for the man who aspired to be the foremost citizen of the state, unless with the income from it he could maintain an army. Fine establishments and the comforts of life in elegance and abundance also afford pleasure, and the desire to secure it gives rise to the insatiable thirst for wealth. Still, I do not mean to find fault with the accumulation of property, provided it hurts nobody, but unjust acquisition of it is always to be avoided. The great majority of people, however, when they fall a prey to ambition for either military or civil authority, are carried away by it so completely that they quite lose sight of the claims of justice
