GM’s diesel way to trucks!

General Motors Corp. has announced that the company plans to spend $100 million in its engine plant in Tonawanda, New York, for making a new diesel engine for light duty trucks, to enhance fuel efficiency by 25% and reduce carbon-dioxide emissions by 13%. The auto giant said it will make the 4.5L V8 engines for North American pickup trucks and the Hummer H2 built after 2009.

A new outsourcing wave has hit the telecom sector in India and all eyes are now on IBM

Meanwhile, Reliance Communications, the third largest telecom operator in the country, has short listed three frontrunners amongst the contenders, namely: IBM, Tsystems and EDS for this outsourcing deal. It would be similar to the Idea deal, wherein Reliance would sign a pact for 10 years, but the size of the deal in this case is expected to be about $1.5 billion.

However, if the entire cellular service provider industry ends up outsourcing to IBM, would cellular operators be able to get the cutting edge competitive advantage that they are desirous of achieving? After all, a common vendor would impart virtually similar services with negligible differentiation.

Be that as it may, bagging contract after contract, life is beginning to resemble a bed of roses for Big Blue in India. And if they walk away with the Reliance or Vodafone deal (or both), that would be the yummy icing on the cake!

The United States could learn a thing or two from Cuba when it comes to health care for citizens

The reason is simple. Most of the American citizens do not earn enough to shell out for the costly premiums of healthcare insurance. In most cases, the premiums for most of the insurance products have worked out to be more than the average annual income for majority of the Americans! Even for the fortunate ones who are insured, things aren’t so bright. Insurance companies, on some or the other pretext, have been denying insurance claims even after charging heft y premiums. The most obvious result of this greed and avarice-driven healthcare system has been the breathtaking profits for American healthcare companies. United Health Group & Well Point, the Fortune 500 companies in 2006, earned whopping profit increase in 2006 by 28% & 157%, respectively, over the previous year.
