strategically placed on the wall. A shot from a Parliamentary
cannon succeeded in damaging the wall beneath X which caused
the cannon to tumble to the ground. The Royalists, or Cavaliers
attempted to raise X on to another part of the wall, but because
the cannon was so heavy that they couldn‟t place it back.
What is X ?
10. X is a supernatural being in Norse mythology and Scandinavian
folklore. In Old Norse sources, beings described as X dwell in
isolated rocks, mountains, or caves, live together in small family
units, and are rarely helpful to human beings. In some sources, X
can't stand sunlight also. X is now-a-days commonly used in a
separate domain altogether. Identify X.
12. X are advertisement characters promoted by Y since IPL 2.
Although these characters look animated, they are actually
humans in X costumes. The ads were created by Ogilvy &
Mather, the agency handling Y advertisements. According to Rajiv
Rao, National Creative Director of Ogilvy & Mather, they “wanted
to make real people look as animated as possible”.
Give X.

people most associate the capirote with?

United States copyright will not expire until 2030, and that
unauthorized public performances of the song are technically
illegal unless royalties are paid to Warner. In the European Union,

the Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrovna of Russia to the Duke of
Edinburgh. It is also a symbol of Spain‟s economic recovery after
the Spanish Civil War.
26. We cannot under-estimate the massive effect the
_______ has had on the game. It has changed the
equation between bat and ball more than pitches have
done, for it took away from the fast bowler his greatest
weapon -the ability to induce fear. Ian Chappell related
to me how he and Ian Healy once sat down to debate
which was the better Australian side -Chappell's or
Waugh's -by discussing a hypothetical match between
the two. "Is this match going to be played with
_______or without_______?" was the first question
Healy raised, because he felt it would have a great
bearing on the contest.
