After a couple of months they reopened the Company but 20,000 of Ford's 70,000 emplyees were not rehired, including the entire Sociological Department. By 1923 car sales had topped 2 million and well over half the cars built in the world were Ford's. In 26th of May 1927 Henry Ford, with his son, drove what was to be the last of 15 million Model Ts off the Highland Park assembly line. Sixty thousand Ford workers in Detroit were left without work for six months until the new Model A was unveiled in December 1927. His anarchic management structure- such as it existed- and lack of experience in developing new model threw the company into chaos. Resolving that chaos cost a fortune, perhaps as much as $250 million in terms of lost sales as well as setting up the costs for new model. Ford was a great engineer and an even better enterpreuner, but he was not a great manager of organisational change. Conclusion
left homeless. 10% of the buildings in Old Town and 40% living spaces were destroyed. There had heavily inyuried Estonia theatre and Harju gate. On September 25, 1944, remains of two Soviet soldiers were buried at the center of the hill. Additional remains were reburied there in April 1945.[5] After the burial of the Red Army soldiers on Tõnismägi the square was named Liberators' Square on June 12, 1945. A memorial monument was ordered from architect Arnold Alas and unveiled on September 22, 1947. Eesti Televisioon (ETV) is the national public television station of Estonia. It made its first broadcast on 19 July 1955 and moved into color television in 1970s. Tallinn's botanygarden created in 01.12.1961, but opened for public in 1970. In 1972 was builded Tallinn first skyscraper ,,Viru Hotel" what is 74m high and located in centre of Tallinn.

History of the Internet 1957:The United States Department of Defense formed a small agency called ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency) to develop military science and technology. 1961-1965:The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) started to research sharing information in small, phone-linked networks. ARPA is one of their main sponsors. 1966: The first ARPANET plan is unveiled by Larry Roberts of MIT. Packet switching technology is getting off the ground, and small university networks are beginning to be developed. # 1969:The Department of Defense commissions the fledgling ARPAnet for network research. The first official network nodes were UCLA, Standford Research Institute,UCSB, and the University of Utah. The first node to node message was sent from UCLA to SRI.
entrance portico and George Washington to the east. The latter statue, a gift from the state of Virginia, stands on soil imported from the United States. This was done in order to honour Washington's declaration he would never again set foot on British soil.[4] In 1888 the statue of General Charles George Gordon was erected. In 1943 the statue was removed and, in 1953, re-sited on the Victoria Embankment. A bust of the Second World War First Sea Lord Admiral Cunningham by Franta Belsky was unveiled in Trafalgar Square on 2 April 1967 by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.[5] The square has become a social and political location for visitors and Londoners alike, developing over its history from "an esplanade peopled with figures of national heroes, into the country's foremost place politique", as historian Rodney Mace has written. Its symbolic importance was demonstrated in 1940 when the Nazi SS developed secret plans to transfer
One of the craters filled with water; King George VI later had it enlarged and turned into a duck pond. Like many villages, towns and communities across Britain, the community of the estate suffered its own wartime tragedy. The Sandringham Company was wiped out in the Battle of Gallipoli in August 1915. Trapped in a field which suddenly burst into flames, possibly due to a stray shell, the entire company was killed. In 1920 King George V, Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary unveiled a cross and tablet on the greensward outside Sandringham Church, bearing the names of the fallen. King George V's reign also saw the birth of a new Christmas tradition at Sandringham. The first Christmas broadcast to the Empire was made live on Christmas Day, 1932, from Sandringham's 'business-room'. History was made again in 1957 when The Queen made her first televised broadcast live on Christmas Day from Sandringham's library.

The Song Festival Dais, built in 1960, is the site of the famous Estonian song festivals. The stage was designed for a choir of more than 30,000. The biggest audience (300,000, which was approximately a third of Estonians in Estonia at the time) gathered in 1988 for the most special of all song festivals, called the Singing Revolution, while Estonia was still a Soviet Republic. There is also a monument to the centenary of the song festival (unveiled in 1969) and a stone wall carrying memorial plaques for all the festivals. Pirita Pirita is a picturesque area situated about seven kilometres away from the centre of Tallinn. There is a beautiful sandy beach stretching for two kilometres. Pirita is also a yachting centre and a place for motor-cycle races. One of its attractions is the ruin of St. Birgitta's Convent. The founder of the convent was the Bridgettine Order whose principal house was at Vadstena in Sweden

had real structural value. On both the Longdon-on-Tern (1796) and the Pontcysyllte (1805) aqueducts, the cast-iron sections that formed the side walls of the trunk were wedge-shaped, behaving like the voussoirs of a stone-arch bridge and bolted through flanges. Telford's most ambitious notion, however, was his proposal of 1800 for a single cast-iron arch of 600ft (183m) span over the Thames to replace Old London Bridge. An earlier proposal was unveiled in France by Montpetit in 1779 for a bridge of 400ft (122m) over the Seine, thought to have been the inspiration for Telford's idea. Even the young United States got into the act when Thomas Paine, the political philosopher, proposed an iron arch of 400ft span over the Schuylkill in Philadelphia. But the next most outstanding achievement after Coalbrookdale was the cast-iron arch over the River Wear at Sunderland (UK), because it actually was built
And it is from inner space, the unconditioned consciousness itself, that true happiness, the joy of Being, emanates. To be aware of little, quiet things, however, you need to be quiet inside. A high degree of alertness is required. Be still. Look. Listen. Be present. Here is anther way of finding inner space: Become conscious of being conscious. Say or think “I Am” and add nothing to it. Be aware of the stillness that follows the I Am. Sense your presence, the naked, unveiled, unclothed beingness. It is untouched by young or old, rich or poor, good or bad, or any other attributes. It is the spacious womb of all creation, all form. CAN YOU HEAR THE MOUNTAIN STREAM? A Zen Master was walking in silence with one of his disciples along a mountain trail. When they came to an ancient cedar tree, they sat down under it for a simple meal of some rice and vegetables. After the meal, the disciple, a young monk who had not yet found the key to the mystery of Zen,
He then put his ham- mers and chisels aside and spent two more years polishing and sanding before the statue was complete. Michelangelo was already famous as a sculptor, and the news that he was working on a major commission for the Medicis spread all over Italy. When the day came for its first public viewing, thou- sands of people came from all over Italy and gathered in the main square. When it was unveiled, the crowd stood gaping in awe. It was breathtakingly beautiful. People cheered. Women fainted. The audi- ence was amazed at the incredible beauty of the enormous statue. Michelangelo was immediately recognized as the greatest sculptor of his age. Afterward, when Michelangelo was asked how he was able to create such a masterpiece, he replied by saying that he saw the David complete and perfect in the marble
6 . RECOGNITION In the ancient world a favorite device for bringing about an emotionally charged reversal was a recognition scene, in which the disguised identity or secret relationship of a character is revealed, and the fortunes of the characters are reversed. These are scenes where long-lost lovers are united, where cruel tyrants realize they are about to execute their own sons, where the masked superheroes are unveiled, where the Prince puts the glass slipper on Cinderella's foot and realizes she's the girl of his dreams. 321 T H E W R I T E R ' S JOURNEY — T H I R D EDITION Christopher Vogler A mainstay of Robin H o o d movies is a scene where King Richard, who has been creeping around England in disguise to see what's been going on in his absence,
