ovation -- the New Two-way Play
It takes a lower price or a better mousetrap to win over potential customers. This is especially true in the developed world, but to gain a foothold in rapidly growing economies, successful multinationals increasingly will have to unleash new products and services while paying strict attention to costs. "We need better products, faster, at a lower cost," says Joe Manget, global leader of The Boston Consulting Group's operations practice. In a break with the past, many ideas for these new products and services now originate in developing countries. Watch for more successful global companies to take this approach. http://knowledge.wharton.

弩（英語：crossbow），古曾稱窩弓，現亦稱十字弓（來自英語的Crossbow），是一種射擊兵器。它是一種裝有臂的弓，主要由弩臂（弩身）、弩弓（弩翼）、弓弦和弩機等部分組成。因不需要在拉弦時同時瞄準，所以對使用者的要求也比較低，裝填時間比弓長很多，但是一般來說它比弓的射程更遠、殺傷力更強，而且命中率更高，在古代是一種大威力的遠距離殺傷武器。強弩的射程可達六百公尺，床弩的射程更達一千多公尺。按張弦的方法不同，可分為臂張弩、蹶張弩和腰張弩等，歐洲人更是使用各種拉弦器來上弦。
