...Pete Rose has to be in the Hall of Fame Pete Rose is an iconic figure for Cincinnati and Reds Baseball. He has over 4,000 hits and over 3,000 games played, both the most by any player ever. Looking at that he should be in the Hall of Fame right? Well no, he is not. He bet on baseball during his playing career and was forever banned from baseball. However, the Hall of Fame is not full of saints and even other Hall of Famers like Hank Aaron went out and said they would like to see him get in. Therefore, he should be in the Hall of Fame. Since the Hall of Fame is a museum to honor the great players in baseball history, Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame (HOF). Dan Epstein wrote the article “Time Served: Why Pete Rose Should Be in the Hall of Fame” to explain the Hall of Fame is not full of saints. As Epstein states “Roberto Clemente's humanitarian credentials wouldn't have meant squat to the voters if he'd hit like Tito Fuentes. Ultimately, the Hall Of Fame is (and should be) a museum, not a monument to morality”(Epstein). Yes he...

Plata Jodel L. Talabis Monica Cleo C. Panganiban Alyssa Keith M. Panganiban Owen Karl V. Santos Chapter 1 Background Study Introduction The beginning of perfume use can be traced back thousands of years to the early Egyptians. The first perfume we’re part of religious rituals. It was developed together with the first cosmetics, but they weren’t made to attract opposite sex; they were made the good will of the gods. The Egyptians were very spiritual people so they put containers of perfumes even in their tombs. After sometimes perfume use started becoming more personal. People started using perfume in their Baths. The oils helped to protect their skin from drying out in the hot climate. Perfume containers have always been attractive. The Egyptians treated their perfumes with great respect, and believed that only the best containers were good enough to hold them. Perfume making is passed on through the ages.

...ROSE Rosa A rose is a woody perennial of the genus Rosa, within the family Rosaceae. There are over 100 species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing or trailing with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. The name rose comes from French, itself from Latin rosa, which was perhaps borrowed from Oscan, from Greek ρόδον rhódon (Aeolicβρόδον wródon), itself borrowed from Old Persian wrd- (wurdi), related to Avestan varəδa, Sogdian ward, Parthian wâr.

...Case One The Dilemma: Rose Partyware has been working towards creating its own brand of party ware supplies to give it a competitive edge in an industry of generic party supply manufacturers. Recently, Rose Partyware was presented with the opportunity to produce a private-label brand of party goods. This alternative would provide Rose with a stable revenue source as well as opportunities to create private-labels for other retailers. However, pursuing this option would drain Rose’s resources and prevent them from launching their own branded goods. Additionally private-labels would make Rose into a manufacturer-only role and limit its long-term prospects, but having its own brand is very costly to promote and comes with many short-term risks. Possible Solutions: 1. Proceed with Rose Partyware branded party supplies. * Retain loyalty of small independent retailers (35% of sales) * Brand advantage in party supplies versus other generic suppliers * Positive long-term returns * Control over pricing, branding, and distribution of goods * Short-term technological advantage 2. Pursue manufacturing private-label goods for retailers. * Retain largest Rose customer (20% of sales) * Supplier of choice in private-label manufacturing * Lowest short-term risk * Cheapest option in terms of change to company structure & spending The Decision: If I were in Tom Roses’ position I would choose to proceed with Rose Partyware branded party supplies...

...The blooming business To Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day every second rose that is produced in Kenya, will be exported to Germany. But the journey until the roses end up in a discounter or in a flower shop is very hard and long. In the last few years, the flower industry has extremely increased and it actually got bigger than the music industry. The world’s largest exporter of roses is called Sai Ramakrishna Karuturi and is from India. He owns land eight times the size of Mumbai. Four years ago he additionally bought the biggest rose farm of the world with 4500 workers, 160 ha land and 650 million roses, that leave the farm every year. He has a huge power in the flower trade and plays actually a big role in it. He makes a turnover of 25 Million euros every year and he managed to get a 9 percent market share in Europe in the last few years. Customers that are very important for him are Edeka and Aldi. Discounters want goods that are cheap, fast and durable at once. To fulfill the discounter’s requirements, the African workers ship only the rose buds and not the blooming flower abroad. That makes sure that the roses are durable for a longer time. Mr. Karuturi sells 55 % of the output through the auction in the Netherlands and the rest through wholesalers and retailers. Also 100 % of the African rose production is exported to Europe. Even though Africa and Latin America export huge amounts of cut flowers, the Netherlands is the biggest export country.
