...Hot on the heels of "Far from Heaven," which looked exactly like a 1957 melodrama, here is "The Core," which wants to be a 1957 science fiction movie. Its special effects are a little too good for that (not a lot), but the plot is out of something by Roger Corman, and you can't improve on dialogue like this: "The Earth's core has stopped spinning!" "How could that happen?" Yes, the Earth's core has stopped spinning, and in less than a year the Earth will lose its electromagnetic shield and we'll all be toast--fried by solar microwaves. To make that concept clear to a panel of U.S. military men, Professor Josh Keyes (Aaron Eckhart) of the University of Chicago borrows a can of room freshener, sets the propellant alight with his Bic, and incinerates a peach. To watch Keyes and the generals contemplate that burnt peach is to witness a scene that cries out from its very vitals to be cut from the movie and made into ukulele picks. Such goofiness amuses me. I have such an unreasonable affection for this movie, indeed, that it is only by slapping myself alongside the head and drinking black coffee that I can restrain myself from recommending it. It is only a notch down from "Congo," "Anaconda," "Lara Croft, Tomb Raider" and other films which those with too little taste think they have too much taste to enjoy. To be sure, "The Core" starts out in an unsettling manner, with the crash-landing of the space shuttle. Considering that "Phone Booth," scheduled for release in October...

...What are the core competencies and end products of IKEA? How are they linked with each other? IKEA is capable to design its products in-house; therefore they can reduce their costs because outsourcing their product designing is much cheaper. Despite that they’re designing its product itself, people find it still attractive enough to buy IKEA’s products. Also their furniture and packaging is designed in such a way that it’s easily transportable (‘flat packaging’1) for both customer and IKEA. The assemble-it-yourself furniture, together with the flat packages, reduced space requirements in logistic operations, which lowered the costs either.2 To maintain their low-cost strategy they have to manage an international low-cost supplier network. By 2004, IKEA’s network of international low-cost suppliers had grown to the point where it had 43 trading service offices in 33 countries.3 By well thought allocation of their warehouses and stores they managed to reduce costs even further. So we can conclude IKEA is capable of sustaining its low costs, by managing, establish and designing its supplier network in such a way that IKEA achieves lowest costs in logistics. Even though they’re capable to establish a low-cost supplier network, IKEA is also capable of designing its furniture in such a way that it “fits the IKEA concept of form, function and price”4, “for example the OGLA chair which initially was made of wood but eventually is made out of hollow...

...Growth strategies By the end of 2013, Lululemon owned 171 stores in the United States and 54 stores in Canada, which means the North America market was reaching maturity (Natalie, O.R. 2014); but this company has its own strategies to expand their home market of North America.

...via Supermarkets. While they maintain the largest market share, the market (all customers) is becoming more diverse and restrictive. The Market Analysis report put forth by Brannigan’s Analyst in 2012 highlights the United States trends in soup consumption and sales. The analysis provides no real customer feedback however, it does report extensive sales data for Brannigan as well as the industry. Brannigan has core customers and core products (Ready to Eat (RTE) soups both wet and dry) that have supported their research, development and new growth opportunities for many years. These core products are reported to contribute 86% of the current profits to the division. Brannigan reports declines in sales of 1-2% per year. Despite the decrease in the sales of their core products Brannigan was able to maintain the profitability by increasing the cost to the customer. They are now at the point that competitors private label growth is surpassing their sales for the “same” products. Their core business is at risk. Bert Clark, over the years had built a Core Leadership Team of highly competent operators, leaders and lane owners. In an effort to solve the division’s problems he posed questions to his team alongside the data analysis as a means to provoke thought, solicit ideas and solutions. All four of his leaders proposed very thoughtful solutions with specific suggestions that considered their scope of influence. The best solution...

...one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. It was established two years ago when ValMed and PharmCO merged. PharMed is obligated to keep detailed records of how its drugs perform by relying on sophisticated database such as the Vigilance which will be used by division employees around the globe. The core team responsible for designing and implementing Vigilance has three members in the United States: Frank Lanigan, Carol Reynolds, and Mike Powell; and four members based in France:Didier Amrani, Karine Bareaut, Merline Bucquet and Fabrice Lemaire. In addition to the core team, five subteams were formed. Overall, half of the subteams’ members are located in the United States and half are based in France. Most of the U.S. core and subteam members were previously employees of ValMed. Before the merger, several of them, including all of those on the core team, played key roles in efforts to develop a similar system called Perspective. Several months later, the newly merged organization decided to scrap Perspective in favor of Vigilance. The Perspective team members were disappointed, but understood the rationale for the change in direction. The Vigilance core teams were introduced to each other virtually and had been working with each other via teleconferences. These teleconferences were frequently cancelled by Didier Amrani, the project manager, without notice and without him having sought input from the rest of the team as to whether there were issues they wanted...

Advantedge Financial Services has been operating for over 10 years, and while it has been a relatively small company in the past, its growth in conjunction with National Australia Bank acquiring the entity this has expanded the company and its business to unprecedented levels.

... Each and every reader can relate with each reading in one way or another and both have the same type of core conflict. In this paper we are going to cover the type of core conflicts in these two pomes. After covering the conflicts that are present in each poem we are going to look at the literary techniques that help highlight and defined the conflict in each poem. Finally we will finish up by covering the similarities and the differences in the two poems. Starting with the core conflict in the Poem Ways of Talking, we find ourselves looking at individual verses self. This form of conflict is an internal conflict with one’s self trying to transform a way of thinking or a type of behavior that has been performed in one’s life. In this poem, it tells how two people have been having conversations about grief. The first part of the poem states “we used to like talking about grief our journals and letters were pack with losses, complaints and sorrows” (Jin 1996) indicating the core conflict of individual verses self will be transformed and resolved at the end of the poem. This type of clue given early in literature is called foreshadowing. Foreshadowing is defined in our PDF handout as “A technique a writer uses to hint or suggest what the outcome of an important conflict or situation in a narrative” (Deutsch 2014). In the second poem Bright Copper Kettles The core conflict is as well individual verses self. In this poem the individual his having an internal struggle with...
