Just watched Rajneeti at Pristine Mall. http://rajeevvaid.org/blog/
Very awry movie - and I have a feeling that Prakash Jha - a loser politician - lost the plot and copied Godfather and meshed it up with some Gandhi family facts to serve a flop.
If Prakash Jha’s Gangajal was 10/10 this was 0/10. Do not waste your time and money on this one.

Two Indian companies, Tata and Reliance, figure in the list at 17 and 33 much above BMW and Siemens and many others. US companies come on top as the most innovative.
Before the world shuddered two years ago, U.S. companies dominated our Most Innovative Companies ranking, easily outnumbering corporations based outside of America. But now that the global economy seems to be growing again, senior executives surveyed by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) no longer consider the U.S. the be-all and end-all in innovation. Yes, Apple reigns as No. 1 again, trailed by silver medalist Google. And Microsoft and IBM find themselves back in the top five, based on BCG’s global poll. But for the first time ever, more companies on our Top 50 are based outside the U.S. China’s rise is the fastest. A year ago, its only representative was Lenovo, at 46. This year Greater China is tied with Asia’s postwar powerhouse, Japan, thanks to showings by BYD (8), Haier Electronics (27), Lenovo (29), China Mobile (44), and Taiwan-based HTC (47). To make room for 2010’s freshmen, a half-dozen American giants on 2009’s list got dumped: AT&T, ExxonMobil, 3M, Johnson & Johnson, Southwest Airlines, and Target.

Software Mantra works with PHP when it comes to making database driven dynamic websites. We chose PHP over Microsoft’s ASP.net because it is much more faster, economical and keeps our customers happy.

Excerpt from Pink Bat,
by Michael McMillanPerceived Problem: The amenities were great, but the elevators in my client’s new office building were extremely slow. This became a major problem. Every day, frustrated and often angry crowds stood in the lobby, complaining as they waited for an elevator cab to arrive. The building’s developer and management team hired consultants to assess the problem and even solicited tenants for ideas. Here were some of the suggestions:
* Add a couple more banks of elevators.
* Make the doors open and close faster.
* Stagger business starting and ending times.
* Have visitors come during off-hours.Everyone was so focused on the problem, no one was able to see it as a solution…well, almost no one.
Pink Bat Solution: One morning I arrived to find a crowd (larger than usual), standing in the lobby. But instead of an angry mob, everyone was happily gazing up at the new video monitors that had been installed over the weekend. They were getting stock market information, checking the weather, and reading employee-related news. Amazingly, some people didn’t even board an elevator when it became available.
With Pink Bat thinking, the perceived problem became a solution. People were no longer waiting for elevators. Disney discovered this solution long ago. Waiting can be a big problem…or a great way to entertain and inform guests.

The important thing is this: to be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.
