		The better class of farm buildings are generally in the form of a square, close all round, and entered on the south side through a large arched door, under the granary.
		Two sides are for the accommodation of cattle, the back walls being built close up to the eaves; but the front is in two stories, supported on strong posts, and open from the ground to the eaves; the lower story occupied by cattle; the upper kept as a store for their provender.
		The houses are generally conveniently situated outside the square; and many of them, on the estates of the Duke of Bedford, and other wealthy and liberal landowners, have lately been rebuilt, or enlarged and improved.

		The general election took place in 646 constituencies across the United Kingdom, for seats in the House of Commons.
		In Northern Ireland, the election was dominated in the unionist community by a battle between the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) and the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) to be the region's largest unionist party in Parliament.
		Other elections in the province have shown both a shift in votes towards the DUP but also a collapse of support for the cross-community Alliance Party which is likely to be more marked in a first past the post election and thus which may work in the UUP's favour.

	Political Forecasting: Forecasting the 2005 Parliamentary Elections in the United Kingdom
		Recently, we proposed an original statistical model for forecasting general elections in the United Kingdom, based on the observation of a few key indicators of the political and economic system.
		To bring the model up to date, 2001 election data were added to the training set and two separate neural networks were trained using the views of our original two experts.
		To generate a forecast for the forthcoming general election, answers to the same questions about the performance of parties during the current parliament, obtained from a further 35 expert respondents, were offered to the neural networks.

		Nearly all political elections in the United States are plurality votes, in which each voter selects a single candidate, and the candidate with the most votes wins.
