Why did they stop making the Canadian Made Avro Arrow?
An American minister of Air defense told John Diefenbaker that planes are old and missiles are the new thing, so JD listened to him and canceled the Avro Arrow and laid off all the people who were working on the world's fastest plane...little did he know over 250 of those people went to the United States and joined a group which is now known today as NASA.
According to the movie "The Arrow," the above is true, and the implication is made that the Canadian interceptors were discarded in favor of US missiles to defend North America. According to The History Channel, the Avro-Canada factory was thoroughly infiltrated by the KGB, and it was considered a security leak. Curiously, the General Dynamics F102 Delta Dagger and F106 Delta Dart bore an amazing resemblance to the Arrow. The difference was that the Arrow was a genuine two-place strategic interceptor. The F102 and F106 were flown from the ground, with pilot as a backup.

How can you fix corsage to silk material?
There is a new magnetic floral corsage base that uses two magnets, one in the corsage and one on the other side of the fabric. Speak to your florist for details, but it is strong enough to hold a corsage to shoes and gentle enough for the silk. If one must pin a corsage to silk, it is best to put a tissue into the dress for the pin to go through so the fabric will have stability and not tear. The pin marks can be carefully "scratched" back together with the point of the pin when the corsage is removed. Are you sure you don't want a wrist corsage?
What is the role of purchasing manager in Make or Buy decision Explain in detail with Examples?
Determination whether to produce a component part internally or to buy it from an outside supplier.
This decision involves both qualitative and quantitative factors.
Qualitative considerations include product quality and the necessity for long-run business relationships with subcontractors. Quantitative factors deal with cost. The quantitative effects of the make-or-buy decision are best seen through the relevant cost approach. For example, assume a firm has prepared the following cost estimates for the manufacture of a subassembly component based on an annual production of 8000 units:
The supplier has offered the subassembly at a price of $16 each. Twothirds of fixed factory overhead, which represents executive salaries, rent, depreciation, and taxes, continue regardless of the decision.
Should the company buy or make the product? The key to the decision lies in the investigation of those relevant costs that change between the make or buy alternatives. Assuming that the productive capacity will be idle if not used to produce the subassembly, we can make the following analysis:
The make-or-buy decision must be investigated in the broader perspective of available facilities. The alternatives are: (1) leaving facilities idle; (2) buying the parts and renting out idle facilities; or (3) buying the parts and using unused facilities for other products.
