No Chinese Handsets on Indian Border – Is The Govt. Proposal Acceptab
2009-09-01 07:23:00 The past few years have seen military tension frequently simmer between India and China over border violations, Â suspicions of military spying, etc. And considering the fact that China has a tight control over the home grown corporations, it comes as no surprise the the Indian Government is wary of Chinese equipments used by Indian network providers in the sensitive border areas. Among the new set of diktats issued by the Department of Telecommunication (DoT) is a proposal to ban the use of equipments from Huawei and ZTE along 14-20 circles that share the border with unfriendly countries like Pakistan and China. One cannot find fault with the proposal considering that the threat is genuine, but the network providers are clearly not happy. The main reason is that the opportunity cost to switching equipment providers is huge; firstly because there are several contractual agreements already in place with the Chinese manufacturers and secondly because the European manufacturers are mu...

My 'Proposal': Don't see this movie
2009-06-19 17:12:00 My forgiving colleague Geoff Berkshire didn't seem to mind the lack of laughs or non-existent sexual chemistry in "The Proposal," but, well, I did. My take is below. Read it then tell me if you'll see "The Proposal" just because you like Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, or if you'll avoid it like month-old milk."The Proposal"** (out of five)It's awfully depressing to walk out of a romantic comedy after having felt absolutely nothing, and laughed only once or twice. That's the case with "The Proposal," a painfully formulaic tale of a workaholic grouch (Sandra Bullock) lightening up after she spends time with the family of her assistant (Ryan Reynolds), whom she forced into engagement to prevent her from being deported....

Outrage Over Veterans Health Care Proposal
2009-03-19 07:01:00 A recent Obama administration proposal seeks to save money by cutting health care from veterans whom already have private insurance.  Is this one of the best ways we have to save money?  Democrats on Capital Hill issued a letter to President Obama to express their distaste for the proposal.  As the AIG outrage over shadows most more important and substantial news, issues such as this fall to the waste side.  President Obama is right of course to try and save the government money where he can however it should not come at the expense of those that serve our country.  Veterans relying on their private insurance may not always be an adequate way to cover the needs of service injuries. As we saw in the Walter Reed Army Medical Center case extremely poor treatment was given to some of our veterans.  To allow any veteran to receive such poor treatment after returning from duty is unacceptable and we cannot allow it to happen again.  With increasingly common PTSD cases and lo...

The Importance of Proposal Preparation in Responding to an RFP
2009-01-14 21:02:00 As the government has expanded its uses of Contracting by Negotiation through the issuance of RFPs ("Requests for Proposals"), as opposed to Sealed Bidding and the issuance of IFBs ("Invitations for Bid"), contractors have had to adapt to this new way of doing business. All too often, a perfectly capable contractor is not selected for award, even though its price was the lower than its competitors, because it failed to adequately address the evaluation factors listed in the solicitation. A recent decision by the GAO in the Matter of Capitol Drywall Supply, Inc. ("CDS"), decided on January 12, 2009, highlights the difficulty that a contractor faces when the agency and the GAO conclude that a proposal misses the mark. The proposal by CDS was one of six submitted to the Corps of Engineers, and was the second lowest in price. The problem, however, was that CDS was rated as the lowest on the technical merit evaluation factor due, primarily,...

Fairfax Connector Fare Increase Proposal
2008-10-23 15:24:00 I feel like I?m up on my current events. I read the Express everyday so I can discuss Pearls Before Swine and the Blog Log with everyone on the Metro. (You should hear the deliberations as the entire car solves the Sudoku puzzle together!) I generally watch the first 20 minutes of Good Morning America and read the headlines on both the Washington Post and Pittsburgh Post-Gazette websites. However, I?m in my own little bubble when it comes to local news. I usually have no idea what?s going on in the DC area unless someone tells me. So when my colleague asked me about the proposed fare increase on Fairfax Connector buses, which I ride to and from work everyday, I had no idea what she was talking about. Perhaps it?s that bubble thing, but I haven?t seen or heard anything about this. When Metro fares or Metrobus fares go up, the news seems to be everywhere. While the 20,000 Connector riders a day is much smaller than those who use Metro and Metrobus, this is still a fairly sign...

Let’s End The Housing Crisis Here And Now … A Modest Proposal
2008-10-08 02:12:00 Even us “glass half-full” types have to admit the news these days is bad. Any day Congress passes a $700BN and has to tag on only another couple billion or so of Christmas ornaments to get it passed, well, on that day, you know things were urgent, and they had to act fast. Wooden arrow manufacturers, Caribbean distillers, and certain other recipients of congressional largesse pork may be quite happy now, but hopefully the remaining $700BN will be spend actually trying to solve the problem. And that’s where my modest proposal comes in. Fundamentally, this crisis is about housing values, or more specifically about uncertainty around housing values. Behind most of the bankrupties, the bailouts, the CDO-thing-a-majiggies … lies a portfolio of mortgage loans whose value is … 3 cents on the dollar? A dime? A quarter? 47 cents? Nobody knows, and therein lies the problems. Our fearless leaders have proposed spending the $700BN largely on buying th...

The only other state where gay marriage is legal is Massachusetts.Here's what Pitt said, "Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8."Here, here, Mr. Pitt, and thanks very much for your support.

Tips for the Perfect Wedding Proposal
2008-06-06 04:21:00 Asking a significant other for their hand in marriage is not only a key moment in a relationship, but also has the potential to provide an everlasting memory for both as one of the best moments in the lives of both members of the couple.

Required Vaccination Proposal In N.J. Irks Parents
2008-06-06 00:49:00 Required Vaccination Proposal In N.J. Irks Parents ReportingCindy Hsu TRENTON, N.J. (CBS) ― Children in New Jersey as young as 6 months old may soon be required by law to get a flu shot, making it the first state to require certain vaccinations, but parents aren't so thrilled about the news. Lawmakers are preparing to vote on legislation that would require flu and pneumonia vaccinations for children in daycare or preschool as young as 6 months old, along with meningitis and whooping cough vaccination for children in the sixth grade. Parents rallied against the plan Friday in Trenton. "The government should not be dictating the toxins we have to inject into our children," said Sue Collins, a concerned parent. "I don't think the safety is proven that when you put this many in the pipeline in their bloodstream that it is safe," said Amy Galarowicz of the Holistic Mom's Network. Dr. Steven Stravinski, chief of pediatrics at Holy Name Hospital, disagrees. "The benefits of immunizati...
