...Thoroughbred Mating Plan Introduction With £200,000 I would purchase 2 mares and pay for the covering of one of these mares from a reputable stallion. The progeny of which I intend to sell at Tattersall sales FINISH THIS SECTION Task 1 (750) The carefully selected mares for the mating programme are ‘Falcon in Flight’ (Falcon) and ‘Palomita’, both mares sold at the December Tattersalls mare sales. Falcon was lot 43 and sold for £3,000, she was consigned by Darley and property of Rabbah Bloodstock Limited and before sales she was covered by Arabian Gleam and believed in foal. She has won 1 race of her total 4, it is however her breeding lines that are desirable and the reasoning for her selection. Progeny of Shamardal and Marine City means she is genetically more desirable than other mares, with Carnegie as her Dam Sire who won 7 of his 13 races and placed in 2 others. Shamardal is a very successful stallion currently 8th in the table of leading flat race sires (in accordance to wins) on the Racing Post website, he also possesses a 2.23 average earnings index (AEI) score. Falcon is inbred 4x5 by Northern Dancer, 4x5 by Riverman and 5x5 by Petingo, inbreeding increases the chance of a desired trait being expressed therefore the racing performance success of these stallions will be inherited by Falcon. If she does not race as hoped she still possessed the desired genetics to be crossed with another equally genetically strong stallion. On the purchase of Falcon...

...States economic history are actually the three centuries before England settled in America. There were four changes happening in Western Europe that have greatly influenced America. Those changes were economic, political, religious, and intellectual (Fite 15). So why were these changes so important? They were the reasons that England decided to explore and expand in the western part of the world. The decision to expand trade and commerce was the most important advancement in the history of economics (Fite 15). From the time that the Virginia colonies were settled in 1609 up until 1890, farming was the most important aspect of the United States economy (Fite 30). Although manufactured products were worth more than products produced on a farm for the first time in 1889, farming was how the majority of Americans made a living (Fite 30). Despite the fact that agriculture dominated in these early years and the industrialization of the colonies was well under developed, “there was a high degree of specialization in the colonial economy” (Fite 63). For example, there were tobacco crops in the southern colonies which were crops that produced money, and in the northern colonies there was international trade with other continents (Fite 63). All of this called for a well-organized and planned distribution system (Fite 63). America had a significant increase in its economy during the beginning of the 18thcentury (Fite 102). After the Revolutionary War was over, so was the control that...

Scholars and practitioners alike suggest that the problems existing in subsistence marketplaces demand the attention and involvement of responsible businesses and that doing business with consumers in such marketplaces can be both socially responsible and profitable.

...Statutory Interpretation (not examinable) • Literal Rule There are three (3) principles of law that can be applied to interpret the law, where the Literal rule can be applied and if absurdity exist either the Golden or the Mischief rule can be used. The Literal rule considers the law as what it says where the natural meaning of the words are used for interpretation; this can be depicted in the case Regina v Barrymore where the defendant was charged with the offence of wounding with the intent to murder, however the learned magistrate of St John’s Magistrate’s court committed the defendant to stand trial on a charge of wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm. The court however had no power to commit the defendant for any offence other than the offence with which he had been charged. • Golden Rule The Golden rule is an extension of the literal rule, giving either narrow or wide meaning to the law; the Narrow meaning can be exemplified in the case of Marilyn Spenser v the Attorney General (AG), where the appellants, members of the Executive of the Committee of the Hallelujah Square Tabernacle church submitted to the Attorney General (AG) articles of incorporation of the church as a religious non- profit organization. However, the AG rejected the request stating that a nonprofit company must be a commercial enterprise which is to be carried out without financial gain to its members. Wide Meaning on the other hand is used to give law a wider meaning...

...“Bring Back the Sun”: The Historical Significance of the Castrati Chuck Harris Music 425 Dr. HM Lewis December 15, 2009 The Castrato has long been a subject shrouded in controversy and mystery. Castration has been used in many cultures and religions since the dawn of time (Eunuchs). We don’t know exactly when castration started to be used specifically for the voice but we have records dating back to the 16th century. These documents hint towards it being done because of Christianity. This paper will look at one Castrato in particular, Carlo Broschi more commonly known as, Farinelli. I will use the film Farinelli and other historical and educational articles and books to help discuss this paper. One of the final scenes of Farinelli, Il Castrato, dir. Gerard Corbiau (Sony Pictures Classics, 1994), shows a solar eclipse witnessed, eighteenth-century style, by members of the court of Philip V of Spain around 1740. Restless spectators squint through pieces of tinted glass prepared in the smoke of a small fire. It is a precious visual detail, a jolt of history in this sumptuously though often inaccurately detailed film that offsets the melodrama to follow. Without warning, a wind, helped along by corny, time-lapse photography, ushers in a sea of Goya-like clouds. A murmur passes through the entourage; eerie blackness falls on the court. The King is shrouded in another kind of darkness: his famous, chronic melancholy (we would call it 'clinical depression'). He pronounces...
