Sainiks beat up Big Boss guards

Armed with their party's self-proclaimed badge of moral police keepers, a group of 30 Shiv Sainiks descended on the Bigg Boss bungalow in Lonavala today and beat up security guards stationed there. Party chief Bal Thackeray had made his intentions perfectly clear in a statement issued in Mumbai. "Come what may, we will not allow the show. Don't issue law and order (disruption) threats to us. Shiv Sena will disrupt the TV show." The party wants the two Pakistanis among the 14 participants on the show to be expelled immediately. The fourth season of the show, based on the international Big Brother, is hosted by Salman Khan. Guests from across the border are Begum Nawazish Ali, a transvestite talk show host from Karachi, and actor Veena Malik, who is Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Asif's ex-girlfriend. "To bring people from Pakistan just to titillate audiences is terrible. Till our relations with Pakistan improve, these people should not be broug

WOMEN use their GENDER like a WEAPON

"Because I'm a woman." That's the standard refrain when women want to avoid doing something they don't like! Illustration: Uttam Ghosh Scientists have proven that women frequently use their sex as a get-out clause for everything from crying to their failure to take the bins out. A survey found that 88 per cent of respondents had used their sex as an excuse at some point, while more than half admitted they did so regularly. Driving was the most common scenario, with 67 per cent blaming their poor parking on being a woman, reports the Daily Mail. More than half of women blamed their gender on their inability to catch spiders in the bath -- while slightly fewer than half used it to avoid carrying heavy items. The news follows Katie Price's [ Images ] admission in court last week that she had swerved while driving her pink horsebox because she was a 'typical woman driver'. The top ten situations in which women are likely to use their gender as an

India, Russia to ink $25bn contract for 250 jets

India, Russia to ink $25bn contract for 250 5th-gen stealth fighters New Delhi: India and Russia are set to sign a preliminary agreement for a co-development and manufacturing programme for a fifth generation fighter aircraft that is slated to become this country's biggest-ever defence project. The programme will eventually see outlays in excess of $25 billion for the induction of 250 advanced stealth fifth-generation fighter aircraft (FGFA). Based on a Russian design, from the Sukhoi design bureau, the FGFA (Indian designation) will be a very potent super-manoeuvrable, supersonic cruise, long-range strike and high-endurance air defence capable aircraft that will cost upwards of $100 million (Rs450 crore) per unit. This would, however, be almost half the price of the comparable American fifth generation F-22 Raptor, which, at last count, was costing the US exchequer about $185 million per unit. The Russians are also confident that not only would the aircraft cos

Aussie Wrestler showed middle finger to opponent

Australian wrestler Hassene Fkiri was disqualified Tuesday for making an obscene gesture to the judges in the Commonwealth Games 96kg Greco-Roman final, his coach said. Fkiri, who would have picked up a silver medal, refused to shake hands with Anil Kumar after losing to his Indian opponent, and moments earlier had shown his middle finger to the judges. Australian coach Kuldi Bassi said: "I didn't actually see anything myself but someone else told me he saw it. "He's a very nice person normally. He's very good, win or lose. He wasn't unhappy at all (before the fight) -- he was happy to be representing his country. "The Indian (Kumar) upset him a bit and was pulling his neck. I told him that was what was going to happen and I think he just lost control. It's very sad and it's bad for the country." Organisers of the competition were not immediately available for comment.

4,000-year-old Aryan city discovered in Russia

The remains of the ancient city were explored for the first time around 20 years ago Russian archaeologists have unearthed some ancient and virtually unknown settlements, which they believe were built by the original Aryan race about 4,000 years ago. According to the team which has discovered 20 spiral-shaped settlements in remote Russia steppe in southern Siberia bordering Kazakhstan, the buildings date back to the beginning of the Western civilisation in Europe. The Bronze Age settlements, experts said, could have been built shortly after the Great Pyramid, some 4,000 years ago, by the original Aryan race whose swastika symbol was later adopted by the Nazis in the 1930s. TV historian Bettany Hughes, who explored the desolate part of the steppe for BBC programme ‘Tracking The Aryans,' said, “Potentially, this could rival ancient Greece in the Age of the Heroes.” Unknown till now The remains of the ancient city were explored for the first time around 20 years a

India Inc’s Small Speedsters

How we did it? For compiling the list of companies, we included companies with net sales below Rs 1,000 crore during FY10. With a view to exclude small companies with possibly dubious credentials, we eliminated from the list companies with a market capitalisation of less than Rs 50 crore. To make sure that the list was populated only with companies showing healthy financials, we added further criteria, such as return on capital employed (RoCE), debt-equity ratio (DER) and interest coverage ratio (ICR), cash flows from operations and dividends paid. India Inc’s Small Speedsters As a result, the final list comprised companies, which consistently maintained their RoCE over 15% during the past three years, DER below 1.5 in the past three years and an ICR above 5. Companies which had missing or skipped dividends more than once during the last three years or companies with more than one year of negative operating cashflows, too, were weeded out. This left us with nearly 140 companies w

The new heroes

Zydus Wellness leads the ETIG’s 2010 list of 100 Fastest Growing Small Companies. It zoomed to the top from fourth position last year. The scrip has benefited immensely due to the merger of Cadila Healthcare’s consumer healthcare business and continues to remain debt-free and cash-rich. The recently listed Technofab Engineering occupies the second spot, thanks to its impressive profit growth over the last three years. But it is Hawkins Cookers, which stole the show in the top five. It made it to the top three after figuring down in the list at the 19th position last year. A superior profit growth in FY10 helped the company cruise past the likes of Man Infraconstruction, Vinati Organics and VST Tillers Tractors. Vinati Organics shot up from last year’s 14th rank to 8th this year and VST Tillers from 27th to 12th position. A few seem to have lost their ground compared to last year. Tata Sponge Iron, which stood tall at the third position in 2009 list, has slipped to 20th this year. S

The showstoppers on bourses

A robust financial performance goes a long way in winning investor confidence. To put it in perspective, 77 companies that featured in our 2009 list of 100 Fastest Growing Small Companies outperformed the benchmark indices in the year gone by. Moreover, the stock prices of 27 companies more than doubled during the period. A portfolio, which includes the top 10 companies from the list, would have enriched an investor by 59%, as against a market gain of 21%. A portfolio of top 25 companies would have earned 61%. And a portfolio with equal weightage of all these 100 companies would be valued higher today by 73%. Indeed an impressive feat.

Small Companies That Hold Potential To Make It Big

 Success, be it small or big, needs to be celebrated. In keeping with this belief, ET Intelligence Group unveils a list of India Inc’s 100 Fastest Growing Small Companies annually. It is the fastest-growing small companies of today that hold the promise to emerge as tomorrow’s giants. But this comes with a caveat. It is difficult to say, for sure, which of these smaller speedsters of India Inc would make it to the Grand Prix in the future. As they say, past performance is no guarantee of excellence in the future. But what we can state from historical trends is the kind of companies which have the potential to make it big. Given their consistent past performance, the companies in the latest list of ETIG’s 100 Fastest Growing Small Companies hold the potential to emerge as likely winners. Investors should cherry-pick stocks from the list based on further research or build a portfolio based on our selection to stay ahead of the markets.

Does he/she loves me? : Part 1

Most of the people are interested in knowing whether their partner is seriously interested in them or just he or she is with them to just spare some time. And I also found this that instead of asking this question from the people around their partner or his/her good friends, or the common friends, most of the people ask this question from strangers. People do you really feel that a stranger is good enough to be trusted upon. Most of the people are confused about their partners. I am amused about this, that what makes so much confused about their own partners. Why people ask others, whether he/she loves him/her or not? After thing a bit, I come to the conclusion of this : 1.        These people are very much confused about their partner. 2.        Someone told them something about their partner, and they don’t have guts to ask their partner about the thing told by someone. 3.        They might have noticed something and took that incidence in another way. 4.        They don’t have tru
