...LINUX: Rute User’s Tutorial and Exposition Paul Sheer August 14, 2001 Pages up to and including this page are not included by Prentice Hall. 2 “The reason we don’t sell billions and billions of Guides,” continued Harl, after wiping his mouth, “is the expense. What we do is we sell one Guide billions and billions of times. We exploit the multidimensional nature of the Universe to cut down on manufacturing costs. And we don’t sell to penniless hitchhikers. What a stupid notion that was! Find the one section of the market that, more or less by definition, doesn’t have any money, and try to sell to it. No. We sell to the affluent business traveler and his vacationing wife in a billion, billion different futures. This is the most radical, dynamic and thrusting business venture in the entire multidimensional infinity of space-time-probability ever.” ... Ford was completely at a loss for what to do next. “Look,” he said in a stern voice. But he wasn’t certain how far saying things like “Look” in a stern voice was necessarily going to get him, and time was not on his side. What the hell, he thought, you’re only young once, and threw himself out of the window. That would at least keep the element of surprise on his side. ... In a spirit of scientific inquiry he hurled himself out of the window again. Douglas Adams Mostly Harmless Strangely, the thing that least intrigued me was how they’d managed to get it all done. I suppose I sort of knew. If I’d learned...

...Unit 1: Brand Made in Europe Almost every fashion label outside the top luxury brands is either already manufacturing in Asia or thinking of it. Coach, the US leather goods maker, is a classic example. Over the past five years, it has lifted gross margins1 from 55 per cent to 71 per cent by manufacturing solely in low-cost markets. In March 2002 it closed its factory in Lares, Puerto Rico, its last company-owned plant, and now outsources all its products. Burberry has many Asian licensing arrangements2. In 2000 it decided to renew Sanyo's Japanese licence for 10 years.This means that almost half of Burberry's sales at retail value will continue to be produced under licence in Asia. At the same time, however, Japanese consumers prefer the group's European-made products. Sanyo is now reacting to this demand for a snob3 (a) thích làm sang alternative to the Burberry products made in its factories across Asia by opening a flagship store4 in Tokyo's Ginza, where it sells Buberry imported from Europe. In interviews with the FT, many executives say the top luxury brands will continue to be seen, particularly in Asia, as European .Domenico De Sole, who is to step down next year from chief executive of Gucci, the Florentine fashion and leather goods group, says: "The Asian consumer really does believe - whether it's true or not - that luxury comes from Europe and must be made there to be the best. Serge Weinberg, chief executive of Pinault Printemps Redoute, which controls Gucci...

Rashedul 09-14203-2 Role of local Government ministry In Bangladesh economy Bangladesh is a poor country. Most of the people live below the poverty line. Our GDP depends on Agriculture and industry. As a newly independent (1971) country Bangladesh is struggling with huge population, low per capita income, mass poverty, unemployment and underemployment, illiteracy, child labor, malnutrition, corruption, and related social problems.

The Government of Bangladesh and a significant number of non-government organizations (NGOs) are working to improve the socioeconomic conditions of rural poor people of the country. To improve the economic development of the country the local Government ministry should work for it. Bangladesh economy depends on some several sectors...
