Offer and acceptance - Test of acceptance. Acceptance is a final and unqualified expression of assent to the terms of an offer [G.H. Treitel, The Law of Contract, 10th edn, p.16]. It is no defense to an action based on a contract for the defendant to claim that he never intended to be bound by the agreement if under all the circumstances it is shown at trial that his conduct was such that it communicated to the other party or parties that the defendant had in fact agreed. Signing of a contract is on ...

The Musical Offering - The theme from the king. The collection has its roots in a meeting between Bach and Frederick II on May 7, 1747. The meeting, taking place in the king's residence in Potsdam, resulted from Bach's son Carl Philipp Emanuel being employed there as court musician. Frederick wanted to show a novelty to Bach: the pianoforte had been invented a few years earlier, and the king owned such experimental instrument, allegedly the first Bach ever saw. Bach, who was well known for his skill at improvising, was given the following theme by Frederick to improvise a fugue upon the ...

On Yom Kippur, the day of atonement, a sin-offering was made with special solemnity (Lev. 16:5, 11, 15).

Sin-offerings were also presented at the five annual Biblical festivals (Num. 28, 29), and on the occasion of the consecration of the Kohanim (priests) (Ex. 29:10-14, 36). ...

In the United States, during the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s, many venture capital driven companies were started, and seeking to cash in on the bull market, quickly offered IPOs. Usually, stock price spiraled upwards as soon as a company went public, as investors sought to get in at the ground-level of the next potential Microsoft. Initial founders could often become overnight millionaires, and due to generous stock options, employees could make a great deal of money as well. The majority of IPOs could be found on the Nasdaq stock exchange, which is laden with ...

Some professional activities, by the nature of being high-paid, highly exposed, and difficult to get into, automatically confer celebrity. For example, movie stars and television actors are almost invariably celebrities. High-ranking politicians, television reporters, television show hosts, supermodels, astronauts, and major-league athletes are also celebrities. Some film and theatre directors, producers, artists, musicians, authors, trial lawyers and journalists are celebrities, but the vast majority are not, or much less than their real importance in the business.

In Europe votive deposits date to the Neolithic with polished axe hoards, reaching a peak in the late Bronze Age. High status artefacts such as swords and spearheads were apparently buried or more commonly cast into bodies of water or peat bogs, from whence they could not possibly have been recovered. Often all the objects in a ritual hoard are broken, 'killing' the objects to put them even further beyond utilitarian use before deposition. The purposeful discarding of valuable items such as swords and spearheads is thought to have therefore ...

Tithe - England. The right to receive tithes was granted to the English churches by King Ethelwulf in 855. The Saladin tithe was a royal tax, but assessed using ecclesiastical boundaries, in 1188. Tithes were given legal force by the Statute of Westminster of 1285. Adam Smith criticised the system in The Wealth of Nations (1776), arguing that a fixed rent would encourage peasants to farm more efficiently. The Dissolution of the Monasteries led to the transfer of many tithe rights from the Church to secular ...
