My comment:
(a) For the "bann" in the title, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banns_of_marriage
(public announcement in a Christian parish church that a marriage is going
to take place between two specified persons. It is commonly associated with
the Church of England)
Until today I have not seen this word in American publications or
conversations. Such a word does nto exist in www.m-w.com.
(b) This report uses "civil partnership." Apparently it is a British legal
term. In US, the same notion is represented by either domestic partnership
or civil union (particularly the latter as separate but equal form to
substitute for same-sex "marriage").

rapidly increasing spending power to impel changes in the way companies
operate. Time, Nov. 22, 2010 (title in the print; cover date).

My comment: Unfortunately Time does not allow non-subscribers to read this
article. Otherwise, I will recommend the illustrations--but not necessarily
the test.
But one may see it here.
