...2014 “The Shroud of Turin” The shroud of Turin is a length of linen cloth bearing the image of a man who appears to have suffered physical trauma in a manner consistent with crucifixion. Nobody actually knows how this image was crowd. Many people believe it is the burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth although it was placed in the medieval period. Its origins are hardly debated by theologians, historians and researchers. Many theories have been proposed but nobody actually knows for a fact the complete description of the Shroud of the Turin. In 1978, an examination performed by American Scientists, called STURP found literally no evidence of how the image was produced. Even other sample tests didn’t add up. This is truly one of the most puzzling mysteries in history. A reason is because the details of the image on the shroud are extremely hard to see by the naked eye and was first captured by an amateur Secondo Pi a on May 28, 1898. It is best seen in a negative mode because the regular mode is hard to see. The historical records for the shroud can be broken up into two time periods: before 1390 and 1390 to present. Even the periods are debated between historians. There are no historical records concerning the shroud now at Turin Cathedral before the 14th century. The religious perspective is one of the most important things about the shroud. To Roman Catholics, it is proof to non-believers that Jesus of Nazareth...

...Richard Henry November 27, 2012 The Shroud of Turin is Jesus of Nazareth’s Authentic Burial Cloth The Source of the Image Revealed Under the cover of darkness, Jesus of Nazareth was arrested and brought to trial before the Jewish authorities. His captors repeatedly punched him in the face and spit on him, but that was only the beginning of his suffering. Early in the morning they brought him to Pontius Pilate, the Roman installed governor of the Judean Province. Pilate ordered that Jesus be flogged and crucified. Jesus was then beaten with a “Roman instrument called the flagrum” (Oxley 125). The flagrum is a whip that was capable of causing dreadful injuries. In fact, “The injuries caused by the scourging would have resulted in traumatic shock” (Oxley 162). In the interim, the soldiers were allowed to have some cruel fun with him. They created a crown out of a thorn bush and forced it onto his head, piercing his scalp and forehead. As the final stage of his punishment, Jesus was nailed to the cross through his wrists and feet. After he died, a Roman soldier pierced Jesus’ side with a spear in an upward thrust toward his heart. After taking him down from the cross, he was wrapped in a linen sheet and his body placed in a tomb. The linen cloth that enveloped him has graphically recorded the gruesome details of his chastisement. The linen cloth that Jesus was wrapped in is now known as the Shroud of Turin. Even though those who believe it is a medieval fake have challenged its...

...The mystery behind the religious relic, the Shroud of Turin, has cultivated an array of attitudes and views towards it since its existence, making it one of the most debated and controversial topic in the Christian world. Even after extensive scientific research has been conducted on it, the inevitable question of whether the image on the shroud belonged to Jesus Christ remains unresolved. The Shroud itself is an ivory linen cloth with a herringbone weave. Measuring 14 feet 3 inches long by 3 feet seven inches wide, the cloth itself features a faint shadow-like image of the front as well as the back of a man with a beard and long hair with his hands laid in front of him. Blood stains are also apparent in several areas of the shroud and the material is also disfigured by stains and fire damage caused by its exposure to fire in 1953. The Shroud has also been at hazard from fire in at least two other occasion and was sent to the Poor Clare Nuns for repairs. The earliest known origins of the shroud was in 1357, in the town of Lirey, where it was believed to be housed in the local Church. The canons of this church, proclaimed it to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ. Upon hearing these claims, the neighbouring Bishop D’Acris stated in his letters to Pope Clement VII of Avignon how the cloth was, “cunningly painted” and that the canons were, “falsely declaring” and “pretending” that it was Jesus Christs’ Shroud. The rise of fake religious relics as a consequence of the widespread...

...http://hhclassic.com/i-13702734-fan-shroud.html During the second generation of the Chevrolet Chevelle, GM made some design changes that gave it a longer hood and shorter deck for a sleeker body. In 1969, the Chevelle was heralded as the most popular mid-sized car in American. These cars are still as popular now as they were then, and the audience is about the same; it is those who love power who still drive and restore these cars. When you restore your Chevelle, then replace worn out parts like the fan shroud. H&H Classic carries restoration parts for your Chevelle, Malibu or El Camino. The fan shroud protects the fan from flying debris and protects you from whirling fan blades when you have the hood open. This part can become damaged...

...Canadian aircraft manufacturer, must reduce the cost of the materials for the Dash 8 airplane which comprises 65% of de Havilland’s total manufacturing cost as a result of a company directive to reduce parts pricing by 25%. The flap shrouds and equipment bay door supplier arrangements have come up for consideration and the opportunity to satisfy the new strategic sourcing policy of fewer suppliers with long term, fixed contracts, along with reductions in cost of materials, has presented itself by going out to tender. Kim Tomar, Financial Analyst (material) is evaluating 9 RFP submissions for suppliers of flap shrouds and equipment bay doors in order to make a recommendation to de Havilland’s Source Selection Board (“SSB”). Tomar’s evaluation must include a financial evaluation as well as an assessment of the supplier’s viability as a long term supplier. Marton Enterprises (“Marton”) proposes the lowest cost bid and the opportunity to reduce the bill of materials of the Dash 8 although they have not submitted their financial information. Tomar’s recommendations to the SSB include negotiating a contract with Marton and accepting the current bid pricing. Immediate savings to the bill of materials can be realized as the costs of the flap shrouds and equipment bay doors are 25% of the current supplier. Once the recommendation has been approved contract negotiations can begin with Marton. A negotiation plan and timeline will be used, with constant monitoring, to ensure...

...On page 296, Athena discusses “weaving a scheme” to get back at the suitors. Athena is the goddess of both weaving and wisdom. Here, Homer emphasizes that the characters must have wisdom to put, or “weave," together an intricate plan. On page 111, Nestor tells Telemachus how for “nine years we wove a web of disaster for those Trojans.” Nestor illustrates smart military tactics by comparing it to weaving and fine details of a well woven piece to a strong plan in war. On page 96, Penelope deceived the suitors with her weaving trick. She told the suitors that she would select one to marry when she finished weaving Laertes’ shroud. To avoid having to make a decision Penelope unraveled her progress each night so she would never finish the shroud. Here, Penelope used her trickery and wisdom to deceive the suitors using something she knew how to do best,...

... 9 Monitor and Control 10 Executive Summary The current inventory of parts, flaps shrouds and equipment bay doors, to produce the Dash 8 airplane will run out in approximately 18 months. In keeping with the companies’ goals of reducing costs, we have asked our suppliers to accept a 25% reduction in prices. When it came to the actual, they were not willing to budge. For that reason, we issued an RFQ. We obtained 9 bids. The lowest bidder was Morton Enterprises. After evaluating the bids, we identified two options, the first one to enter into negotiation with Morton so they can become the preferred supplier of flap shrouds and equipment bay doors. The negotiation must also include transportation, supply, support, etc. The second option is to also negotiate, at the same time as Morton, with the next 2 lowest bidders, Das Components and Lakeshore Industries. Our recommendation is to start negotiation with Morton as soon as possible. Morton’s price will permit us to reduce our manufacturer costs and enter into a long term relationship. A bid clarification meeting must be held quickly to make sure that Morton’s bid corresponds with our needs. Each company will identify a product manager and meet monthly to monitor and control every part of the agreement. Issue Identification A supplier needs to be chosen for the manufacturing and supplying of flap shrouds and equipment bay doors for the Dash 8 airplane. The current inventory of parts available for production...

...De Havilland is a very successful and well known name in the aviation industry. The company has been procuring Flap Shrouds and Equipment Bay doors from two of its major vendors. However Dollard Plastics, the Flap shroud vendor refused any renegotiations with de Havilland. Kim Tomar, the Financial Analyst at De Havilland had realized that issue and therefore started the process of finding a new business partner who is capable of meeting a set of standards that De Havilland had developed earlier for their procurement department, had started the process about year and half earlier than the expiry date with the incumbent supplier. After careful analysis of the nine bids received by de Havilland, I recommended Morton to De Havilland’s Source Selection Board (SSB) as prospective vendor. Based on the initial information from the normalized bids from all nine bidders, the lowest bid was Morton Enterprises. Their bid was 18% lower than their nearest competitor, and when I compared prices of the needed components to the prices supplied by current providers they were between 54% and 74% less expensive. However, beyond parts cost reduction we are also interested in establishing long-term co-operative contracts with the vendor. So, apart from determining who had the best price offer, I need to determine whether Morton is sufficiently stable to be relied upon in the long run. So my strategic intention here is to negotiate an agreement with Morton that will be of the greatest value possible...

...disagreed and didn’t provide any counter offer. De Havilland was hesitant to switch to Marton as the company did not provide financial information, and was in question as to whether they would be able to support all of De Havilland’s inventory needs. Furthermore, the wide range of low pricing from suppliers was in question as there could have been misinterpretation of the terms and agreement for the bid. De Havilland will need to clarify that Marton is able to perform the duties on a long-term basis and is able to provide and perform up to the service levels to meet standards. To mitigate risk, it would be recommended that De Havilland acquire Dollard Plastics for one year while awarding Marton the majority of the production of the flap shrouds and bay doors. De Havilland will monitor Marton using KPI’s on a quarterly basis and discuss any changes if required. Issues Identification Bought by Boeing in 1986 and sold in 1992 to Bombardier Inc. and the Ontario government, De Havilland has established itself as a major player in the Canadian aircraft manufacturing industry. To continue growth and success, De...
