One simple badminton strategy often used in singles is to serve long and high to your opponent's back court. This will force your opponent to move back to the baseline and open up his forecourt.
Use a short serve when you want your opponent to lift the shuttle. It is commonly used during doubles.

Assuming you're talking about the fuel shut-off mechanism that triggers when your tank is full - the pump nozzle is fitted with a sensor that detects when fuel is 'backing up' rather than flowing properly. The device shuts off the valve delivering the fuel from the nozzle - to prevent it spilling over the car and forecourt.

If you serve low, then the opposing team cannot automatically smash it right back into the court. A smash is a fast downward shot. By hitting it low, you immediately take away their ability to do that, but instead might force them to hit it upward. This then opens up your opportunity to begin smashing/being offensive.

Hydrocarbons are part of fuels such as petrol, diesel and gaseous fuels such as paraffin gas.
They are released in the atmosphere whenever they are 'released' without being burnt! For example, petrol drips on to the forecourt at every refill and evaporates into the atmosphere.
An example from within an engine is when the spark plug ignites the fuel-air mixture, a tiny fraction of the mixture remains unburned and is released in the exhaust emissions.

The open space which lies before the basilica was redesigned by Gian Lorenzo Bernini from 1656 to 1667, under the direction of Pope Alexander VII, as an appropriate forecourt, designed "so that the greatest number of people could see the Pope give his blessing, either from the middle of the façade of the church or from a window in the Vatican Palace" (Norwich 1975 p 175). Bernini had been working on the interior of St. Peter's for decades; now he gave order to the space with his renowned colonnades, using the Tuscan form of Doric, the simplest order in the classical vocabulary, not to compete with the palace-like façade by Carlo Maderno, but he employed it on an unprecedented colossal scale to suit the space and evoke emotions of awe

This temple was finished by king Rameses II (d. 1225 B.C.) how continued it from an existing temple that was there thousand of years earlier. The temple consists mainly of 4 sections: Forecourt, the Great Hypostyle Hall, the Central court; and the Festival Hall. This stone bastion of 134 columns delimits one side of the temple's Great Court and measures 338 feet wide by 170 feet deep. The columns defining the processional aisle are 69 feet high, the others 42 feet, the difference in height filled by a stone grille or clerestory. It was located in Thebes which was the capital of Egypt at that time

Winnie-The-Pooh was translated into Latin. I do not know how they handled the misspelling Gags- Rabbit House ( normal spelling, not Pooh-Ese_ would be Domus Lepus or something like that- House of the Rabbit. Pooh poses serious problems to linguists as the spellilng errors were an integral comedy device- such as Tigger, Rabbit Howse, Hunny, Eeyore ( rather than Hee-Haw) the more usual Bray sound effects. I am positive a Latin language Pooh book- more or less textbook format- NOT a comic book, did exist- I saw one once in Lamonia"s class. She taught both French and Latin. I liked the building plans of a typical Roman house - with Atrium ( like forecourt or front yard on my apartment complex) nothing new under the sun.

Generally speaking, the best resume format to use as someone who has shown consistent growth within a single career, industry or profession is the Chronological Resume.
This format focuses on presenting your work history, starting with the most recent job you held at the top of the page, then working your way down in a (contrary to what the name suggests) reverse-chronological order.
What Sections Can I Include?
Typically, this resume format can begin with a brief career objective, summary of qualifications or a career profile. Your work history section then follows, and after that you can include an education section, with other optional closing sections including certifications and licenses, publications and awards, additional skills, or anything other relevant sections that will support your reasons for being an appropriate candidate to grant an interview.
Why Is This Effective as a Format
Showing a consistent growth within your industry becomes a key marketing factor when searching for a new job - such career paths indicate an in-depth knowledge and understanding of your industry at all levels, while showing that you are a committed and loyal worker; highly sought after employee characteristics.
What to List Under Each Job
The goal of a resume is to earn you an interview. So, for each job you include on your resume, be sure to first list the job specifics (name of employer, dates of employment, job title), and then expound your job role below using bullet points to highlight:
Company overview is important, to help show the scope of your responsibility. For example, if you worked as a salesman on a used car forecourt, you should be sure to include the price range of the cars, the number of cars on the forecourt, and other relevant details. Working on a small used car lot with average car values of less than $1000 and only about 20 cars in total isn't as impressive as working on a large used sports car forecourt with avg. car values of $50,000+. This company overview should be expounded in one bullet point only
Achievements are key; you want to tell the reader not so much what you did but why you were good at it. This means highlighting achievements such as how often you met targets, ways you improved efficiency, etc.
Key responsibilities and skills are a way to show you have experience performing the job being advertised. It's essential you don't just list endless day-to-day responsibilities, and instead focus on listing the more challenging responsibilities and duties that you bore.
My Personal Recommendations
As a certified professional resume writer, I would actually recommend you use a "combination format" for your resume - these begin with a more in-depth career profile at the start, then provide an overview of your key skills before introducing your work history. This helps highlight your specialized knowledge and skills, which is supported by your impressive work history.

1. Financial Prosperity. After the Black Death, the population decreased so drastically that the income per person in Italy increased, allowing expenditure on art and literature.
Besides, the emergence of weathy merchant banking families such as the Medici who value arts very much had powerful influence upon the development of Renaissance ideas.
2. The active patronage in Florence, especially by the Medici. Their direct participation in the artist' forecourt made it a distinct characteristics of Early Renaissance Art.
3. The switch from the church as the major patron of art into private patron (the Medici family)
4. The use of arts as visual statement for the patron's wealth or political power. Throughout the Dark Age, art was used for religous purpose but now, it has financial and political purpose, which elevated the status of visual art and the artists.
5. The emergence of Humanism and Neo-platonistic thoughts, led by wealthy class (the Medici). Unline the Byzantine art, individual expression were valued and thus artiist were encouraged to express themselves in an origninal way.

Preparation is key. A Motor Vehicle is the 2nd biggest purchase that we make after property, and as such is an important decision for the buyer, whether the vehicle is new or used.
This brings a whole load of emotions to the table for the buyer, including fear, doubt, excitement and financial commitments.
It is therefore paramount that an individual within the Dealership takes control , and full responsibility , for both the customer and the vehicle that they have purchased from start to finish.
Once a customer walks onto a forecourt, problems can be made just as easily as they can be solved from the moment contact is made with them.
Realisation that effectively the delivery process can begin even before a sale is agreed, is an important factor in delivering customer service and satisfaction as well as the car.
(1) THE SALES PROCESS
Qualification;
If somebody comes onto the forecourt looking for a black diesel 5 door estate, and you have none in stock, qualify why they feel that this is their requirement.
A hard sell on a green diesel mini instead may be achievable ,but are you kidding yourself as well as the customer?
They might only want a diesel because they perceive a saving in running costs, whereas in truth they are only covering 8000miles a year so a petrol model would actually save them money altogether, and you have a black petrol 5 door estate in stock to show them!
Spending time qualifying the customer at this stage , getting to know them and their requirements will eliminate potential attempts to cancel the sale later down the line on the route to delivery.
Vehicle condition;
False promises are all too often made, and needlessly so, in order to secure a sale in the first place.
Eg : (a)Agreeing to paint a small scratch on a 12 month old car is fine, if you intend to do it, do it well, and do it IN TIME for the agreed collection date.
Quite often, an element of transparency goes a lot further , and allows the process to run more smoothly by minimising 3rd party ( paint repair technician) requirements.
Ie:(b) there is a small scratch on the car yes, but it is 12 months old and $6000 cheaper than a new one don't forget, and we wouldn't recommend aftermarket paint for such a small cosmetical mark.
Both can result in a sale, the 2nd method eliminates potential problems on the path to handover / delivery by not being accountable for the reliability and work quality of a 3rd party contractor.
The same theory can be applied across the board to other condition and maintenance issues, but clarity is the
The sale;
Whoop! You've sold a car , taken a deposit and put a sold sticker on it!
Don't let them go yet though!!
Close as many doors as you can whilst the customer is still in front of you and the iron is still hot.
(a) agree a delivery date
The sooner the better, but if you have agreed to paint the scratch, 2pm tomorrow is no good if the paint technician can't come until 1.30pm. Is the car taxed? Do you need any proof of insurance from the customer before delivery? Do you need to call a finance company for details of outstanding finance on their current car? A.O.B. ? Make the calls now , or get the customer to make the calls now, chasing red tape later will create friction, problems and delivery delays.
(b) get a contact number for work and home, and give them your direct line also.
Ongoing communications are essential, if these break down, the receptionist forgets to pass you a message or you cannot contact your customer, friction will again be created before a smooth delivery has been completed.
(2) the delivery process
If you have handled the sales process correctly, this should now be a formality.
Keep a track on the vehicles progress throughout any workshop preparations , valeting requirements and taxation requirements WELL IN ADVANCE of the customer due to collect the vehicle.
If you do have to call to delay collection, (let's say it's that scratch AGAIN! and the paint technician is Unwell) end the call on a positive point eg I forgot to ask what your favourite radio stations are so I can programme them in ready for you.....
Finally, have the vehicle clean and ready in a prominant position for collection. Your customer will have been excited all day at the thought of collecting their new pride and joy, make it the first thing they see when they pull up to the forecourt, and if you have taken control of all the other points in advance.....wave off another HAPPY CUSTOMER!

It is made by taking vegetable oil and mixing it with an alcohol eg. methanol, and a catalyst, usually potassium hydroxide [cuastic soda] at a temperature of 140F or 55 deg C to cause a chain reaction known as transerification, whereby the free fatty acids are made into esters. The byproduct is a crude form of glycerine that can be cleaned up and made into soap etc, or composted. The process can can also be done using waste veg oil and therefor helps with waste recycling. The resulting biofuel gives off far less emissions than mineral fuel and is classed as Co2 neutral, as it only gives off the same amount of Co2 as the plant took in while in growth. The fuel can be used in most diesel vehicles without modification, and mixes readily with conventional fuel. Power and mileage are little different, but its lubricity is far greater than low sulpher diesel, and it is used by many countries at a level of about 5% in forecourt fuel to help with lubrication and the environment. UK will have 2.5% in2008 and 5% added in 2009. Production costs mean it is only slightly cheaper than mineral diesel at the pumps, but with care and understanding it can be produced in your workshop for private use. the cost of this is considerably less. In the UK you can currently produce up to 2500 litres a year for your own use without having to pay road fuel duty. There is a Yahoo group that dry washes that makes it a lot easier. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/biodieselhouston
