The typhoonic Sensex gives clear indications that India is finally taking a global bow!

IIPM Publication
At 3.06 p.m. on a balmy afternoon on February 6, 2006, the Sensex crossed the historic milestone of 10,000 for the first time and it was time for the bulls to taste sweet revenge and say, “To hell with Marxist obduracy!” In the controversy surrounding the airport privatisation drive, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made it pretty clear that enough was enough with Left ’s blackmail….

Value of Technology - Publication and research, IIPM

This service makes Cardinal Health more competitive, generates data about inventory flows that Cardinal Health uses to refine the service and develop new ones, and increases revenues for both itself and the hospitals it serves. Extending the supply chain can become an organic part of the growth of customer relationships. Such was the approach taken by Mansfield, Mass. based Helix Technology Corporation.

The company supplies vacuum technology used, for example, to create the environments needed by semiconductor manufacturers to make computer chips. To extend its value to customers, Helix has become an expert in semiconductor manufacturing processes and an important member of a major customer’s product development team. Helix is also developing ways to help manufacturers increase productivity of capital-intensive plants. This is a departure from the company’s vacuum technology business, but the genesis is the same: to develop creative solutions that extend the supply chain and push Helix ever closer to the heart of the customer’s business...

This alarming illness is named after the Ebola River of the Congo region, which was the initial site of the outbreak in 1976 and has killed about 1000 people since then. Previously containment was possible, however now it has spread at a startling rate and in May 2005 for the first time ever it was reported in the Republic of Congo’s Odzala National Park.

This prospect is highly distressing as the Park contains the primary concentration of Western lowland gorillas and the epidemic has taken its toll on them. Thankfully not all is lost, for conservationists are up in arms and have managed successfully to gain $30 million in order to save this species in five African countries so far….

About Bollywood Movie - IIPM Knowledge Centre

She also would accept live-in relationships without branding the heroine as ‘immoral’. As the middle class Indian embraces globalisation, her mindsets and attitudes are changing, offering film makers an opportunity to delve into contemporary themes that go beyond the ‘formula’.

As mentioned earlier, there is nothing that is taboo as far as the formula is concerned. Bollywood movies no longer need to clearly demarcate the line between the white and the black. They have started showing grey shades and succeeding. In the old years when Amitabh turned to crime, there always had to be a justification for that. Now, Bunty and Babli happily go about conning people without any value judgements attached. It all boils down to success – doesn’t matter how it has been achieved….

Disney should necessarily buy out Jobs’ stake in Pixar : IIPM PRESS

Therefore, the need of the hour for European nations is to ensure a common regulatory platform that goes beyond the EU limitations of member nations, to ensure that individual banks do not duplicate investments to achieve redundant regulatory norms. Otherwise, it won’t be long before Europe has no profitable banks.

The Disney-Pixar alliance is coming to an end. For years, the Disney honchos have held on dearly to their cash making studio, but after the latest Pixar offering, Cars, is released in January 2006, the current contract will expire. Hence, the big question is, whether the alliance would continue beyond the current period?...

Democracy? Yeah right, here it is (IIPM Publication)

But really, even if General Maung Aye has assumed power, there is little hope that Myanmar will change its policies, either domestic or external. On the external front, the Myanmar ruling junta is expected to continue playing off India and China, cooperating militarily with the former to check drug trafficking and offering naval cooperation with the latter to allow it to keep an eye on the Indian naval facilities in the Andamans – Myanmar has leased out Coco Island to China for this purpose. As much as the world might like it, General Maung Aye is unlikely to release Nobel Peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi from house arrest. The only concession to democracy that the military seems to willing to concede is to press ahead with finalising a new constitution. But if democracy were in reality an objective strived for, then for nearly two decades, the military junta of Myanmar would not have aggressively resisted enormous international pressure to restore democracy. Let the world not get too excited, one constitution does not a democracy make.
