Ernoul's chronicle and the Estoire de Eracles recounted the events ending with Raynald's execution in almost the same language as the Muslim authors.
According to Ernoul, Raynald's head was struck off by Saladin's mamluks and it was brought to Damascus to be "dragged along the ground to show the Saracens, whom the prince had wronged, that vengeance had been exacted".

With the marked decrease in tank to tank actions, the automotive deficiencies of the M26 in the mountainous Korean terrain became more of a liability, and so all M26s were withdrawn from Korea during 1951 and replaced with M4A3 Shermans and M46 Pattons.
The M45 howitzer tank variant was only used by the assault gun platoon of the 6th Medium Tank Battalion, and these six vehicles were withdrawn by January 1951.

Jonathan Edwards (principal from 1686 to 1712) is reported to have spent £1,000 (approximately £ in present-day terms) during his lifetime on the interior of the chapel, including the addition of a screen separating the main part of the chapel from the ante-chapel (at the west end) in 1693.
In 1863, the architect George Edmund Street was appointed to renovate the chapel.
The arch of the chancel was widened, the original Jacobean woodwork was removed (save for the screen donated by Edwards and the pulpit), new seats were installed, new paving was placed in the main part of the chapel and a stone reredos was added behind the altar.

In the next stage, by 1853, hydraulic mining was used on ancient gold-bearing gravel beds on hillsides and bluffs in the goldfields.
The loosened gravel and gold would then pass over sluices, with the gold settling to the bottom where it was collected.
By the mid-1880s, it is estimated that 11 million ounces (340 t) of gold (worth approximately US$15 billion at December 2010 prices) had been recovered by "hydraulicking".

In a multistage design, further electromagnets are then used to repeat this process, progressively accelerating the projectile.
Power is supplied to the electromagnet from some sort of fast discharge storage device, typically a battery, or capacitors (one per electromagnet), designed for fast energy discharge.

In mid-2006, a leaking pipe in the company's Marlbrook factory led to 40 cases of salmonella exposure and a product recall costing the company over £20 million.
To this end, Cadbury ended its ten-year sponsorship of the popular soap Coronation Street.
Public perception of the Cadbury brand had slipped in the 2006-7 period, following a series of public relations blunders and product recalls.
Cadbury's failure to inform the Food Standards Agency for five months led to an additional £1 million fine from the Crown Court in Birmingham,.
In the wake of the scandal, the Food Standards Agency advised the company to improve its "out of date" contamination testing procedures.

pool
In most designs, the radioisotope, contained in stainless steel pencils, is stored in a water-filled storage pool which absorbs the radiation energy when not in use.
Gamma irradiation is widely used due to its high penetration depth and dose uniformity, allowing for large-scale applications with high through puts.
Additionally, gamma irradiation is significantly less expensive than using an X-ray source.
For treatment, the source is lifted out of the storage tank, and product contained in totes is passed around the pencils to achieve required processing.
Treatment costs vary as a function of dose and facility usage.

lake
In October 1971, the lake was contaminated with high levels of mercury.
History In 1916, Quebec Fisheries, established in Senneterre, began the large-scale exploitation of the fishery resources of this water table rich in sturgeon, trout and pike, including lakes Matagami and Olga.
This fishery ended in 1930.
Cree Indians were required to stop fishing in the Lake Waswanipi and eating fish from the lake.
Four members of the Cree Indians had been hospitalized in Montreal with levels of mercury in their body 10 times higher than the national average.

In order to cook eggs, one must first heat the pan, pour the mixture, stir mixture, add pepper, and remove eggs.
For instance, cooking ingredients is broken down into all of the different tasks that need to be done: cook bacon, cook eggs, toast bread, and fry potatoes.
These tasks are then broken down further below.
This is a prime example of how process mapping can be used in any situation/process in order to understand all of the different parts so that we can complete the process with a better understanding for more efficiency.
Although this is just a simple example, many aspects of business, including supply chain, operations, marketing, finance, and accounting, use similar process mapping activities to improve efficiency.

canister
In practice, large volley guns were not particularly more useful than a cannon firing canister shot or grapeshot.
A volley gun is a gun with multiple single-shot barrels that shoot projectiles in volley fire, either simultaneously or in succession.
Although capable of unleashing intense firepower, volley guns differ from modern machine guns in that they lack autoloading and automatic fire mechanisms, and therefore their volume of fire is limited by the number of barrels bundled together.
Since they were still mounted on a carriage, they could be as hard to aim and move around as a cannon, and the many barrels took as long or longer to reload.
They also tended to be relatively expensive since they were more complex than a cannon, due to all the barrels and ignition fuses, and each barrel had to be individually maintained and cleaned.

tank
In reality, the tank usually drains much more slowly.
Ignoring viscosity and other losses, if the nozzles point vertically upward, then each jet will reach the height of the surface of the liquid in the container.
Coefficient of discharge If one compares the theoretical predictions about the discharge process of a tank with a real measurement, very large differences can be found in some cases.
In order to obtain a better approximation to the volumetric flow rate actually measured, a discharge coefficient is used in practice: The coefficient of discharge takes into account both the reduction of the discharge velocity due to the viscous behaviour of the liquid ("coefficient of velocity") and the reduction of the effective outflow cross-section due to the vena contracta ("coefficient of contraction").
For low viscosity liquids (such as water) flowing out of a round hole in a tank, the discharge coefficient is in the order of 0.65.

In some boroughs, the so-called potwallopers, this actually reduced the electorate as they had previously granted the vote to any man with a hearth big enough to boil a cauldron.
The act removed many of the rotten boroughs and granted new seats to the industrial towns and cities.
The franchise was, on the whole, extended being granted to any man who owned property worth £10 or more.
Local government was investigated by the Royal Commission on Municipal Corporations in 1833 and the subsequent Municipal Corporations Act 1835 applied reforms to many, including Bristol.

Traditionally, the spanked woman gives a coloured egg (kraslice) they've prepared by themselves as invitations to eat and drink and as a sign of her thanks to the man.
If the visitor is a small boy, he is usually provided with sweets and a small amount of money.

barrel
In the 21st century, coopers mostly operate barrel-making machinery and assemble casks for the wine and spirits industry.
Prior to the mid-20th century, the cooper's trade flourished in the United States; a dedicated trade journal was published, the National Cooper's Journal, with advertisements from firms that supplied everything from barrel staves to purpose-built machinery.
Plastics, stainless steel, pallets, and corrugated cardboard replaced most wooden containers during the last half of the 20th century, and largely made the cooperage trade obsolete.
Traditionally, the staves were heated to make them easier to bend.
This is still done, but now because the slightly toasted interior of the staves imparts a certain flavour over time to the wine or spirit contents that is much admired by experts.

In the first poster, overseen by the Cooperative Forest Fire Prevention Campaign (CFFP), Smokey was depicted wearing jeans and a campaign hat, pouring a bucket of water on a campfire.
His name was inspired by "Smokey" Joe Martin, a New York City Fire Department hero who suffered burns and blindness during a bold 1922 rescue.
On August 9, 1944, the creation of Smokey Bear was authorized by the Forest Service (this date is considered the character's birthday), and the first poster was delivered on October 10 by artist Albert Staehle.
The message underneath read, "Smokey says – Care will prevent 9 out of 10 forest fires!"
In 1947, the Wartime Advertising Council (later the Ad Council) coined the slogan now associated with Smokey Bear for more than five decades: "Remember ... only YOU can prevent forest fires."
