Burj al Arab

Burj al-Arab Hotel - The tourist magnet of Dubai The Burj Al Arab : literally, Tower of the Arabs is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Construction Construction of Burj Al Arab began in 1994. In 1999 the tower that resembles the sail of a dhow, became the world's tallest hotel with the height of 321 m. The architect Tom Wright has said that the client wanted a building that would become an iconic or symbolic statement for Dubai. This is very similar to Sydney with its Opera House, or Paris with the Eiffel Tower. It had to be a building that would become synonymous with the name of the country. The world's tallest hotel is also popularly described as the world's only 7-Star hotel - although its formal rating is 5 Star Deluxe, the highest the international rating system offers. They say, this building was the dream of a sultan, (Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al Nahyan) which turned out to be a reality years later in Dubai.

The Most Important Buildings in Lai Street in Tallinn

The office buiding by architect Nikolai Kusmin (one of the first professional architects trained in Estonia) was finished in 1947. The common yard of houses 25 and 27 Lai Street is one of the most beautiful although it was made very sparingly. 29 Lai Street Lai 29, is a diele-dornse type merchant`s house built in 1412. There is a unique 15th century well in front of the building. Today the building is known in Tallinn as "Hueck House", because it belonged to that family for almost 250 years. Later the building has been extended several times and it has had a number of eminent residents. From 1683 to 1939 the house belonged to the Huecks, a family that gave the city two burgomasters and six town councillors. Also some famous guests have stayed in the house, such as the 15th century artist Bernt Notke from Lübeck and later the Russian Czar Peter I. Legend has it that the czar planted the two lime trees growing in front of the house. 8

The Government is primarily responsible to the House of Commons; the prime minister stays in office only as long as he or she retains its support. Almost all government ministers are drawn from the House of Commons. General elections occur whenever Parliament is dissolved by the Sovereign.

Introduction of SCM

INTRODUCTION OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT (SCM) A supply chain is a network of facilities and distribution options that performs the functions of procurement of materials, transformation of these materials into intermediate and finished products, and the distribution of these finished products to customers. Supply chains exist in both service and manufacturing organizations, although the complexity of the chain may vary greatly from industry to industry and firm to firm. Supply chain management is typically viewed to lie between fully vertically integrated firms, where the entire material flow is owned by a single firm and those where each channel member operates independently. Therefore coordination between the various players in the chain is key in its effective management. Cooper and Ellram [1993] compare supply chain management to a well-balanced and well-practiced relay team. Such a team is more competitive when each player knows how to
