tactics used in the battle of the somme

The story shocked me more than usual because I know my friend is a fairly good martial artist. He is often dubbed as 'talented' by his colleagues and superiors. What's wrong with this story? In theory, he may have wasted the thief quickly while he clearly had no weapon with him. According to him, he didn't know what to do. He knew how he could subdue such assault but he just did not know how to handle it at that time. The production of cost in every single trade is increasing with the frequent hikes in the fuels, electricity tariffs, new human friendly norms and new tax structures. No one can take risk to play with quality of product as it directly affects the manufacturer image. Instead every manufacturer is investing over before for making products better in terms of quality and appearance both. It seems a marathon effort to maintain the development cost within control submerging the hikes in the expense of inputs for longer period. Still, hiring business consulting services to get ready or improve existing business model will be seen as great help.
