What is Origin: Definition and 666 Discussions

Country of origin (COO) represents the country or countries of manufacture, production, design, or brand origin where an article or product comes from. For multinational brands, COO may include multiple countries within the value-creation process.
There are differing rules of origin under various national laws and international treaties. Country of origin labelling (COOL) is also known as place-based branding, the made-in image or the "nationality bias." In some regions or industries, country of origin labelling may adopt unique local terms such as terroir used to describe wine appellations based on the specific region where grapes are grown and wine manufactured.
Place-based branding has a very ancient history. Archaeological evidence points to packaging specifying the place of manufacture dating back to some 4,000 years ago. Over time, informal labels evolved into formal, often regulated labels providing consumers with information about product quality, manufacturer name and place of origin.

    Why logic and reason fail when we try to trace back the origin of universe

    Why logic and reason fail when we try to trace back the origin of universe! When we try to think what might have created the universe,when was it created,how,why,where etc etc, the parameters we are looking at are TIME when we say WHEN and SPACE when we say WHERE,HOW,WHAT,WHO. Out of the ten...

    Can the Uncertainty Principle be Explained by Time and Space Invariance?

    I just had a thought... If the universe supercools before particles form, then there is a potential for particles to form. But this would be in random locations. And this sounds like a quantum field. Does this sound right, quantum fields are created by supercooling of what "spacetime itself"...

    Question concerning the origin on the big bang

    from my understanding,the current understanding of the big bang is a small space packed with immense amounts of particles that " exploded " and in turn created the universe and everything in it.The big question, again from my understanding, is where did all of this material come from in the...

    Can DNA testing reveal a person's ethnic origin?

    Is this possible? If so, must the person being tested have a significant percentage to be identified? I am unsure about one of my great-great grandparents lineage, and would like to know, since census records cannot be found. I have heard about something like this, I believe, something to do...
