| Are more H-1B visas good for India? | |
| By the end of this month, if will be clear if the US Senate Immigration Reform Bill introduced to decide whether H-1B visa limit should be increased from 65,000 to 115,000 has been defeated or allowed to sail through successfully. Everyone says an increase in the H-1B visa limit will help Indians the most. Will it, really? But more on that in just ...

| PETA & the er. . . sandwich! | |
| Hilarity has a mind of its own: it rears its head on the most serious of occasions. For instance, take PETA -- or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. The organisation has been doing some serious work to protect animal rights. But it is not always easy to sell your idea, even though it might be steeped in kindness. So PETA regularly organis...

| Salary not too important? My foot! | |
| A study by Watson Wyatt, a global human capital consulting firm, would have us believe that leadership, job satisfaction, team work, work environment, etc matter more for the Indian work force. More, that is, than the salary they draw. If this is indeed true, it does point towards a new -- and welcome -- trend where the quality of the job matters m...

| What makes Gujjus better at biz? | |
| I have often wondered what is it that makes certain communities better at certain things than others. What, for example, makes Bengalis and Maharashtrians -- as a community -- better at arts or music? Or why is it that Sikhs wield the sword better than others? What is it that makes 'South Indians' better at technology and math? Or what makes Gujara...

True, the finance minister did provide carmakers major relief in the Budget 2006, and Maruti, Hyundai, Honda, Tata Motors promptly passed on the benefit to the consumers announcing attractive price cuts.

| Is buying shares like gambling? | |
| It was just a harmless discussion on the stock market. But it soon turned into a full-blown argument on whether investing in the stock market is the same as gambling. One side insisted stock markets are not casinos. The other was adamant that whoever puts his money into the stock market is a gambler. There are many who feel that investing in stocks...
