(row-ZAY): A pale pink wine, ranging from dry to sweet and traditionally made by removing the skins from red grapes early on in the fermentation process, before they have the time to impart too much colour. Less traditionally, rosés are made by the blending of red and white wines.
Run of Station. Commercial announcements which can be scheduled at the station's discretion anytime during the period specified by the advertiser. For example, ROS 20 spots 6 AM-Midnight, Monday through Friday.
A wine with very little red color and usually some slight carbonation. The light color results from minimal contact between the juice and the skins.
an advertisement that runs throughout SuperPages YP search results, reaching a wider audience than a targeted banner. No targeting criteria is included in a ROS advertisement.

Recreation Opportunity Spectrum. ROS was developed in the late 1970s by the U.S. Forest Service in dealing with increasing demands for recreation and the need to provide for a variety of recreation opportunities on national forest lands. ROS establishes a system for designating areas based upon the factors that comprise the "recreation opportunity" and provides a method for classifying areas and identifying the desired resource, social and managerial conditions for each area. ROS classifications could be compared to management zoning as prescribed in the Merced River Plan.
Return on Sales. The profit divided by sales revenues is the return on sales. This indicates profitability and the operational efficiency of the business. A decline in ROS indicates higher levels of expenses or a decline in sales price. The ratio is calculated using the following formula: ROS = Net Profit / Sales Volume
A champagne or sparkling wine whose slight pink tint often comes from the addition of a small portion of red wine to the cuvée before tirage. (See Blanc de Noirs.)
(Roe-zay) - Pink wine, traditionally made not by blending red and white juice (although some inexpensive wines do this), but by using red grapes and removing the skins from the fermenter before they have had time to impart much color. Also sometimes labeled "Vin Gris" ("VaN Gree," literally "gray wine") and, among popular, low-cost American pink wines, "blush." Although the blush fad included many forgettable wines, a good, dry, crisp rosé or vin gris can be a refreshing treat on a hot summer day.
Rosé is a much-misunderstood wine style. It should be the classic summer red of Australia. Light, fresh and fruity wine made from red grapes, either sweet, medium or dry - but best as a dry, yet flavoursome, young wine.
Pronounced Rose-ay, a great summer drink. Light red, fresh and flavoursome.
Reduced Operating Status. Ships in ROS have a small crew onboard to assure the readiness of propulsion and other primary systems if the need arises to activate the ship.
A light pink wine, dry to sweet, made by removing the skins of red grapes early in the fermentation process or sometimes by mixing red and white wines. Also called "blush" wine.
Provides the advertiser with the opportunity to reach a broad audience by running ads throughout a Web site. ROS provides greater targeting by reaching many members interested in specific services but without specific targeting criteria.
A pink wine, usually made by allowing a small amount of pigment to bleed from the skins of dark grapes into the clear grape juice. Rosé wines otherwise are treated as white wines in the cellar. In the Champagne region of France the Rosé is made by blending red and white together, but still Rosé wines are traditionally made of dark grapes.
Reactive oxygen species. Chemicals like hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide (O2-), and the hydroxyl radical (OH.). Produced naturally by the human body, they contribute to the anti-microbial activity of white blood cells and control some cell signalling processes. At higher levels they can cause DNA and RNA damage.
Reactive Oxygen Species. Oxygen free radicals. High levels of ROS generation are linked a reduced ability of sperm to bind to the zona pellucida. Vitamin E may significantly improve this aspect of sperm function.

A way to buy advertising space across an entire site, with minimal or no targeting. Since the ad can potentially appear anywhere on the site, ROS campaigns are generally offered at a lower CPM than a campaign targeted to a particular section or area.
Pink; neither red nor white; a term of abuse for red wine
Run of Schedule. 3/4– An advertising term that refers to a commercial scheduled at the discretion of a station or cable system to run anywhere in the schedule.
Reactive oxygen species. Highly reactive oxygen–containing free radicals that are generated during oxidative metabolism. ROS can react with and damage lipids, proteins, and DNA in cells, causing oxidative stress. Common ROS include hydrogen peroxide, superoxide radicals, and hydroxyl radicals.
Reactive Oxygen Species. An unstable molecule, which may do biological damage unless stabilized by another molecule. Antioxidants can act by scavenging reactive oxygen species, by preventing their formation, or by repairing the damage that they do.
The pink overtone of a pearl.
Run of Schedule. Commercials scheduled to run across multiple dayparts and multiple days. Usually Monday-Friday, 6AM-12AM
ROS stands for run of site. When you advertise "run of site" your advertisements are placed throughout the website, not on specific pages. Your ads may be placed in rotation with other ads. You need to make sure you know exactly what you're buying.
Rosé is French for pink wine.
Run of site. ROS describes a media placement that covers the whole site, not a targeted page, channel or section. As a result a banner that is served on a ROS basis can appear on any part of the site that carries banners.
Reactive oxygen species. Highly reactive chemicals, containing oxygen, that react easily with other molecules, resulting in potentially damaging modifications.
wine obtained from red grapes with colourless juice.
Reactive Oxygen Species. highly reactive oxygen molecules that have unpaired electrons in their outer shell, thus called "reactive oxygen species." ROS cause cellular damage by taking electrons from proteins, lipids and DNA by altering their chemical structure. Also referred to as free radicals. ROS can react with and damage lipids, proteins, and DNA in cells. (see free radicals)
Pink champagne or wine, usually made from black grapes with little skin contact, or from a blend of red and white wines and often fruitier than white champagne or wine.
Reactive oxygen species. any of a number of highly reactive forms of oxygen that are potential sources of damage.
REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES. Molecules including free radicals and other oxygen species.
A red wine made with the skins and stems removed almost immediately. This gives it its light pink (rose) color. It is light-bodied, slightly sweet, and served cold. In the U.S., the term "blush wine" is replacing the term "rosé."
Reactive Oxygen Species. A relatively new interest area in male infertility, ROS refers to small molecules present in many bodily fluids, such as seminal white blood and sperm cells. When in appropriate concentrations, ROS can help prepare the sperm for fertilization. However, if in excess, ROS can be harmful to other cells.Because of their already high polyunsaturated fatty acid content, human sperm membranes are particularly sensitive to ROS-related damage. Recent studies have demonstrated an increase in presence of these molecules in the semen of infertile men. Several compounds have been used to detoxify or "scavenge" ROS. The most effective of these, vitamin E (400 IU twice daily) is a very effective antioxidant.Pentoxifylline, a medication employed occasionally to decrease the thickness of blood, has also been shown to decrease sperm oxidant production, but is used much less frequently than vitamin E.
A kind of wine made from black grapes, fermented without the grape skins, which produces a lighter color.
Ros (its badge was only in Greek, the brand spelled 'ΡΩΣ') was the trade name of vehicles produced by the Greek company 'Stavros Konstantinides O.E.', based in Athens. The Ros three-wheeler trucks were the most successful of its kind in Greece, having been produced by the thousands. Ros surpassed in sales even "Greek classics" like Alta and Styl Kar, and the characteristic shape of its trucks could be seen for several years in every corner of the country.
