Here's one to solve some environ'mental' issue!

MANAGEMENT GURU

GM hopes to begin selling the first car, a plug-in hybrid version of the Saturn Vue sport utility, as soon as 2009. The second, the Chevrolet Volt, which exists only as a concept-model prototype, is a startling departure from traditional automotive design. The Volt's internal combustion engine is not attached to the drive train as current hybrids are. In case of the Volt, it is used only to recharge the vehicle's batteries. In short, the Volt would function as a true electric car, with the insurance of an internal combustion engine, for five, and a drive over hundreds of kilometers.

"The real breakthrough is with the new batteries, which offered us energy density – which in turn provided us with a reliable, high-powered package in a relatively small space," Zelenski said.

Oscar Dreams In Tricolor

MANAGEMENT GURU

This year’s official entry from India, Rang De Basanti (or Paint it Yellow/Saffron, as it was translated for the phoren populace), didn’t go well with the Academy’s jury members and was out of the race even before it could start. Shocking? Not really, after all where in the world would you not find angry, anarchic, confused youth?! If Oscar’s foreign film award winners of bygone times were listed, the psyche of the Academy’s committee can be considerably demystified – the movies that are truly and typically representative of the country and that cannot be relocated in any other part of the globe, generally go well with the Oscar gatekeepers. There’s Deepa Mehta’s oh-so-Indian movie, Water, with typical Indian settings – an ashram swarming with young widows with shaven heads, portraits of sati, child marriage and tales of tyranny – together showcasing a living, breathing sample of the nation. And while the film may have the necessary elements needed to claim ownership of the golden statuette, it has gone in as a Canadian entry, thanks to some of our own fundamentalist countrymen who could not tolerate a consequential work of creativity. Again, Mira Nair’s Salaam Bombay, a triumphant tale of existence for destiny’s (street) children like Krishna and Chaipau, shot on location, was uniquely Indian – so was the treatment of Mehboob’s Mother India and Ashutosh Gowarikar’s Lagaan.
