"Asit P" 1. oops, i stand corrected vis a vis Mahindra. Point i was trying to make was companies like Tata, mahindra, a treat their employees fairly, again it comes down to management. 2. At some places workers not have any choice but to continue where they are employed. Unionization of j...

please be mindful of the fact that an increase in the production cost will erode India's competitive advantage, thereby propelling the MNCs to take their production units to some other place. Then we will start crying that there are no jobs in the country and hence people are becoming Commis ! If t...

Eat around 100 gms of protein, sufficient complex carbs and fat. No sugar, no sugar no sugar. Do this for 4 months and assess progress. Progressive loading and periodicity are the key. ManjaM sir, 100g of protein /day, I am curious to know if i can get that much of protein with roti, daal and curd ...

NDTV had a segment, water wars of Andhra (aired 11.1.11, 6AM IST). I would try to summarize the contents 1. River Krishna enters AP through Mehboobnagar dist, yet there is no water for irrigation. 2. Andhra farmers are benefiting for the Krishna river and growing rich, Telangana farmers are sufferin...

Mumbai gets Maaki err Symonds. First team meeting should be interesting. (Bhajji was retained by MI).
Symonds is still sore that CA did not back him enough during the maaki episode.

May be OT, but the paki scenario reminds me of the frog and the scorpion fable. A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back. The frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion says, "Because if I do, I ...

Rahul,
agreed, i was trying to point out how simple running or walking is when compared to other options.

Well,You lose weight, if you burn more calories when compared to the calories you consume. To lose 1 lb you need to burn approx 3500 calories. Combination of exercise and diet should do the trick,. Relying on one type might work for some based on their body type. Coming to exercise, running is the l...

^^^, Sri, now a lot guys are under pressure, but a normal person would not plan for year(s), send wife-kids to safety, come back and go about implementing his murderous plan. Under pressure the inside guy comes out. Some fight it out, others give up. A paki will blame everyone (read India) and plan ...

Vina sir, i think its VW. the original peoples car was the beetle. Bose ji, please clarify.

M&M pushed the launch of its truck in US to December 2010.

Squaring off in US: Preet Bharara vs Pakistani-Americans Gerardji, any other source of Preet Bharara vs pakis squaring off in US? All google shows the is TOI article. Not gungho about TOI seeing smoke where there is no fire. What I gather is Mr Bharara is a competent person and he is doing what he ...

Will do that. One more thing, some people say that to lose weight, it's better to work out in the morning on an empty stomach as I do, rather than in the evening. Then some claim that you should workout in the evening after having a light diet rich in carbs. Which one is true? Chandra sir, try and ...

As much as I hate Chinis, out of neighborly competition and everything we hate about Chinis, I admire their work ethic and how they have brought their country out of nowhere (literally "nowhere") to a state where goras are giving they some serious respect. IT HAS TO BE EARNED, YOU CAN'T D...

Karthik sir,
a correction, its sticking a trunk to the indica vista, this is supposed to be the sedan based on vista platform.

What about those of us who have problem digesting milk?[/quote]

being a SRDE i relie on curd, home made butter milk etc. But that was to placate my mom who never understood why i hated milk. Perhaps i misread your query, but curd, yougurt etc are easy to digest and have the same nutritional value.

According to the local chaiwala, AMW was initially meant for essar's shipping/cargo arm. It worked so well, the power-to-be decided to launch it in general market. Another player gearing up in this segment is Mahindra. Has a joint venture with Navistar group of US.

Suppiah sir, good analysis, hyundai has its share of problem with labor unions in Korea. As far as erratic power supply, usually the industries have separate grid and they have back up options. Corruption is nothing new to them. Case point Daweoo. Nano went to Gujarat and WB govt invited the Chinese...

Wonder what labor problems they are talking about - is non-availability or have the commies taken control of the unions to sabotage the industry to benefit their masters in Beijing? well its related to unions. On April 19th, they announced that they are going on a indefinite strike demanding recogn...

and surprise surprise, still taking in freshers and putting pressure on PMs to somehow make them billable. Phew, been there. We got a pilot project from a reputed company. Since we always wait till last minute it was decided to put a greenhorn on project with no experience. End result, those guys n...

Does anybody have opinion on the front positioning of tata nano's fuel tank. I guess this will be a night mare. In any accident involving frontal collision the fuel tank will rupture easily because of its position. If the occupants could not come out of the car quickly enough any fire that may be c...
