A:Over the course of his reign, the higher taxes, fruitless wars, and conflicts with the Pope that made King John unpopular with the common folk nonetheless strengthened the support he received from the barons. Regardless, in 1215, some of the most important barons rebelled against him. He met their leaders along with their French and Scot allies at Runnymede, near London on 15 June 1215 to seal the Great Charter ("Magna Carta" in Latin), which imposed legal limits on the king's personal powers. But as soon as hostilities ceased, John received approval from the Pope to break his word because he had made it under duress. This provoked the First Barons' War and a French invasion by Prince Louis of France invited by a majority of the English barons to replace John as king in London in May 1216. John travelled around the country to oppose the rebel forces, directing, among other operations, a two-month siege of the rebel-held Rochester Castle. B:Does it sound like long military campaigns, even if they were essentially stalemates or failed conquests, were a chance for personal glory for the Barons and other nobility, regardless of how the rest of the population may have felt? Answer: k
A:Over the course of his reign, higher taxes to pay for successful military campaigns were tolerated by the commoners and supported by the nobility, and John's own conflicts with the Pope led most of the barons to support him even more than in the past. However, in 1215, some of the most important barons rebelled against him. He met their leaders along with their French and Scot allies at Runnymede, near London on 15 June 1215 to seal the Great Charter ("Magna Carta" in Latin), which imposed legal limits on the king's personal powers.

John travelled around the country to oppose the rebel forces, directing, among other operations, a two-month siege of the rebel-held Rochester Castle. B:From the way that this passage is written, does the signing of the Magna Carta likely represented the wishes of a real majority (at least, of the noble classes) rather than a coup by a small minority of barons or nobles?

A:In swing dances, tension and compression may be maintained for a significant period of time. In other dances, such as Latin, tension and compression may be used as indications of upcoming movement. However, in both styles, tension and compression do not signal immediate movement: the follow must be careful not to move prior to actual movement by the lead. Until then, the dancers must match pressures without moving their hands. In some styles of Lindy Hop, the tension may become quite high without initiating movement. B:Does someone have good form if they only move their hands while trying to match pressure? Answer: mobiles
