Fergie, Michelle Obama top People's best-dressed list
Fergie, Michelle Obama top People's best-dressed list
By Reuters
2 hours, 39 minutes ago
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - She fills two converted bedrooms with clothes -- one for casual and a second for glam -- and staying organized worked for singer Fergie who on Wednesday made People magazine's 2008 list of best dressed women.
"I don't like to throw anything away," Fergie said about the clothes in her "closets" for People's widely-watched Best & Worst Dressed 2008 issue that hits newsstands this Friday.
Joining Fergie, whose hits include "Glamorous," in the top 10 list were actresses Kate Hudson, Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Charlize Theron, Eva Mendes, and Sarah Jessica Parker. Singer Rihanna and supermodel Heidi Klum also made the list.
Rounding out the top 10 -- and making a campaign statement for fashion -- was Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, who was given high marks for a look that was "classic and confident."
"She has a look. She works it with confidence, and she knows what looks good on her," said People's Style Editor Clarissa Cruz.
But Obama played down the notion that her sense of style might be anything close to couture, telling People: "Some of my favorite summer dresses are from Gap and H&M."
"The thing they all have in common is that they all had a great year, stuck to their own personal style and stayed true to that," said Cruz.
The magazine's editors also spent time peering into the fashion choices of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin -- her rimless glasses, step-toe pumps and updo hairstyle.
"People are paying attention to what she's wearing, and we felt that was a news story," Cruz said.
Palin didn't talk to People, but her hairdresser did. She said the candidate would rather not discuss style choices "because she wants people to hear what she has to say."
The makers of the Kazuo Kawasaki eye glasses favored by Palin told People that demand has been "overwhelming" and "mostly from the middle states."
Then there are those fashion moments People would rather forget.
The magazine's editors pick apart red carpet disaster dresses worn by singer and "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul and actress Lucy Liu, as well as the aqua-and-orange boots and fedora favored by Patricia Arquette.
"These were stumbles that were too over the top to ignore," Cruz said.
Other highlights of the double issue include best dressed television show -- "Gossip Girl" -- and most memorable style moments including Lindsay Lohan's mink coat mixup in which she left a party wearing another woman's $11,000 heirloom coat.

infosys firing
infosys firing
Before the evolution of computers in business world, India was considered to be the nation of snake charmers, beggars and
yogis. Today the survey about this country has completely changed. Now India has become center of hi-tech software
development facilities, cutting-edge R & D Center and 24 × 7 busy call centers. Now IT companies in India are biggest
employers. Generally we see on TV channels and newspapers are software companies are hiring thousands of professionals every
week. But you will be surprised to know that some of them are also firing at the same rate. Today I am posting the list of
India’s most hiring and firing IT companies. India’s most companies are hiring TCS, Infosys, Satyam, Cognizant, HCL, Wipro.
But I know you will be more interested in firing most top IT companies, so here comes the list. Now to come Infosys Firing …
Infosys is the most secured company in India. Infosys - Dream job. On a way to achieve the status of a secured, stable Govt.
Company. Satyam - Currently stopped firing. The attrition rate is very high. No firing from 2005 until now when 1000
employees were fired in Hyderabad. Infosys - Hire and Fire Buoyant market conditions and increasing demand for people will
see Infosys Technologies adding a little more than 28000 people during the current fiscal as against its projected number of
25000th Meanwhile, for the first time perhaps, there is’ involuntary attrition ‘, Infosys firing with people who do not
measure up performance wise. For the second quarter of the current fiscal, Infosys made a gross addition of 10795 people,
which is the highest for any quarter in its history, the company said during the announcement of its second-quarter results.
For the quarter, it made a net addition of 7741 and takes its total headcount to 66150 as against 58409 people in the first
quarter. The distribution of its headcount was also spread across its different business units, while software added services
7900 followed by its BPO operations at the 2628th The rest were among its various subsidiaries like Australia, China and
business consulting. Mr TV Mohandas Pai, managing director, human resources, said they would be adding 9500 people in the
next two quarters of the current fiscal has already made offers for freshers and 13000 for the coming tax law. The fresh
hirings will see bulk of them coming from Bangalore Karnataka as has already reached the saturation, he said. However, in
line with its increased hiring, the rate of attrition Infosys also showed a 1 pct from 11.9 pct increase in the first quarter
to 12.9 pct in the second quarter. Satyam firing people is 500% true Satyam gives just like that offers original target 3
months to 2 years or complete till u 3 yeras is no guarantee they…… any time you want to chuck out if people… not a pink slip
.. u put down the papers or we will terminate u… .. Very funny company with out ETHICS……. Genuine For many people, this
company has done too bad. Played with careers and have all the bad luck to the future of this company. I wish all associates
from satyam please push of before the new polocies etc. come in one picture to fine DAY. If you talk more .. HR will issue a
termination under integrity issue. Ways any GUY .. try Company for any other like IBM, HP, etc. CTS, TCS .. but not SATYAM….
SATYAM is too bad for that matter. They feel proud of themselves because no body to praise. Employees fired, i have seen this
month, just for 1 month diff also they want to see all the bank statements since year 2002, etc. I understand but you know
satyam is number one company is catching people. In the induction, etc. only they take Bonds etc. so that they can come back
and catch any one. SATYAM is also going under losses .. 200 to 300 are on each bench.in center. This company also has some
many people who are unfit to work in HR management. just imagine they recruit us, feel shamed to know. HR also does boss’ism
in SATYAM. especially if they feel as they are giving the projects from their pocket. However my guess is down the line in
future this company will have a major set back. i pray that god doller should fall and First comapn to be affected is very
badly satyam. Please find my real case: they follow a very stragic way to fire people when they ever want to fire the
employees. The most risky company in INDIA. Every month atleast 100 to 500 people are thrown out with a single day notice.
Imagine If you dont have a project or dipping doller .. SATYAM states have to close if the dollar becomes 32 are however they
try to expand the bussiness in other areas as well very fast to catch up the task. They will ask the bank staements
possession of complete starting the day u join the company lets take last five years or 7 years to pull out some body of
company if not required for the project is saying your BG RED and please justify. So the day they check every thing u started
the employment to some how to catch a person. Satyam fired from 560 this month hyderabad giving BG RED. genuine experience
real people were also fired saying BG RED and people are literally suffereing. My sincere proposal is better secured find a
company rather purely per customer revenue and rather. serching jobs rather start, or you will also be one like me who lost
job even after having 5 years of real time. The most unsecure Company. against the U.S. dollar if… please get out of the
places like satyam… .. .. i can say you people will learn a lesson for playing with employees.
Before the development of computers in the business world, India was considered the nation your charm snakes, beggars and
yogis. Today is the idea that in this country has radically changed. Now, India has become a mid Hello technology for the
development of software, avant-garde centres of R & D and 24 x 7 call centers. Now IT companies in India’s largest employer.
In general we see on the newspapers and television stations are software companies that recruit thousands of experts every
week. But you will be surprised to know that some of them are also opened fire on the same rhythm. Today, I am the list of
India, the recruitment and dismissal of IT companies.
India most companies are location TCS, Infosys, Satyam, awareness, HCL, Wipro, etc. But I know that you are more interested
in shooting most of the top IT companies, as is the list.
Come now Infosys cooking fields …
Infosys is the safest company in India.
Infosys - Dream job. On a means to achieve the status of an insured, stable Govt. Business.
Satyam - is no longer shoot. The attrition is very high. No shot from 2005 until now, that 1000 employees were dismissed in
Hyderabad.
Infosys - rental and for the prevention of fires
The dynamics of market conditions and rising demand for people to see, Infosys Technologies for adding a little more than
28000 people in the course of this fiscal year compared to their number of 25000th During this time for the first time
perhaps, it is “random attrition”, with Infosys shot people who do not measure the performance, not clever. For the second
quarter of the current fiscal year, Infosys has a gross more than 10795 people, which is the highest for a quarter of its
history, society, said at the announcement of its second quarter results. For the quarter, it has a net addition of 7741 and
takes its total workforce 66150 to 58409 persons in the first quarter. The allocation of staff was also distributed among the
various business units, while the added software services, 7900, followed by its outsourcing operations in the 2628th The
rest took place between various subsidiaries such as Australia, China and the consultation of the company. Mr TV Mohandas
Pai, Managing Director, Human Resources, said they would need to add 9500 people in the next two quarters of the current
fiscal year and has already 13000 offers for freshers for the next financial year. The new settings to see majority of them
from Bangalore, Karnataka, has already reached the point, saturation, he said. However, online with the increase in its
attitude, the rate of attrition Infosys also showed an increase of 1 pct from 11.9 pct in first quarter to 12.9 pct in the
second quarter.
Satyam shot persons is 500% accurate
Satyam offer, however, there are just as from 3 months to 2 years to complete, or up to 3 years, it guarantees you at any
time……… people terminal if it is not a circular letter from ROSE .. and the documents submitted, unless we quit and… .. Very
funny society without ETHICS…….
For many real people, the society has become bad. Played with the quarries and wishes all disaster for the future of this
society. I wish all associated satyam please press before the new polocies etc. are in the picture a nice day. if you know,
more .. HR issue of stopping the use on the question of integrity. All possibilities, GUY .. try, for all other companies
such as IBM, HP, etc. RTC, SDC .. … But not SATYAM.
SATYAM is too poor to settle the issue. They feel proud of himself, because no organ of praise. The employees went, I saw
this month, for 1 month diff also want all log Bank since 2002, etc., I do not understand, but you know satyam is the number
one thing is the inclusion of persons. In the induction, etc. they only obligations, etc., so that it again, and a whole
collection. SATYAM currently also in the context of losses .. 200 to 300 are in any bench.in center. The company also has
some of the many people who are not likely to work in the management of human resources. imagine that we recruit to feel to
know shame. RH not even in boss’ism SATYAM. In particular, they feel as if projects from their own pocket. However, I
appreciate the line in the future, the company has a set back. I ask God that dollar and the First comapn affected, is very
bad satyam.
Please find my real case:
they follow a very strategic way to fire if they want people ever to fire employees. The risk ventures in India. Every month
at least 100 to 500 persons cast, with one day notice. Make If you do not project or a soaking States dollar .. SATYAM must
be closed if the dollar is 32, they will try, however, the expansion of the business in other areas very quickly catch up to
the task. They will ask to the bank staements full mandate from the date of the company is allowed, on the last five years or
7 years to get out of some body of the company, if it is not necessary to say your project, BG is red and explain why. it
will also mean any thing, the day and began work in a certain demand, as a person. Satyam from 560 this month from Hyderabad,
BG RED. actual experience with real people were also out, he said BG RED and people are literally suffereing. My proposal is
better, honest, a company and guaranteed not only in relation to the customers and revenue. Serching top jobs and not, or

Sixth Pay Commission: DRDO seeks foreign help in attracting, retaining talent
Sixth Pay Commission: DRDO seeks foreign help in attracting, retaining talent
Bleeding from an exodus of talent, India's premier military research body Defence Research and Development Organisation
(DRDO) is seeking tips from other countries in attracting and retaining the best scientific brains.
“We have organised an international workshop on 'Future roadmap for Science and Technology Network', where experts from the
US, Britain, Australia, Germany and Israel will deliberate upon the issue,” said Arun Kumar, director of the DRDO's
Recruitment and Assessment Centre.
"Our main objective is to gain from their experience in highly specialised areas like scientists' recruitment and retention,"
Kumar added.
Former president A.P.J. Kalam, who once headed DRDO, will inaugurate the four-day workshop that will also see participation
by scientists and other stakeholders from the public and private sectors, as also the government.
DRDO, which celebrates its golden jubilee this year, loses a scientist every second day to a plum post in the private sector.
According to the defence ministry, 1,107 scientists - mostly young entrants - have resigned from DRDO between 2003 and 2007.
DRDO has a strength of 7,000 scientists, and the attrition rate is about 6.3 percent. The DRDO anually recruits 900
scientists. The private sector has been lapping up the young scientists, who get a comparatively lesser packages in the DRDO.
Created in 1958 to be the country's premier organisation in defence research and to enhance the country's self-reliance in
military requirements, the DRDO today is reeling under a major manpower crunch. It is able to fill up only 60-70 percent of
the vacancies for scientists that arise in the organisation.
DRDO scientists are in great demand in the private sector as they have considerable expertise in areas like aeronautics,
armaments, combat vehicles, electronics, instrumentation engineering systems, missiles, naval systems, advance computing,
simulation and life sciences.
It is not only the pay package that is affecting the morale of the scientists but also the lack of facilities, bureaucratic
red tape and the slow and frustrating pace of research.
DRDO had sent a comprehensive proposal to the Sixth Pay Commission on incentives for scientists, including reimbursement of
telephone and Internet expenses, entitling all scientists to air travel on official duty - perks that most private sector
executives take for granted.
However, the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission have not gone down well with DRDO scientists.

scientists. The private sector has been lapping up the young scientists, who get a comparatively lesser packages in the DRDO.
Created in 1958 to be the country's premier organisation in defence research and to enhance the country's self-reliance in
military requirements, the DRDO today is reeling under a major manpower crunch. It is able to fill up only 60-70 percent of
the vacancies for scientists that arise in the organisation.
DRDO scientists are in great demand in the private sector as they have considerable expertise in areas like aeronautics,
armaments, combat vehicles, electronics, instrumentation engineering systems, missiles, naval systems, advance computing,
simulation and life sciences.
It is not only the pay package that is affecting the morale of the scientists but also the lack of facilities, bureaucratic
red tape and the slow and frustrating pace of research.
DRDO had sent a comprehensive proposal to the Sixth Pay Commission on incentives for scientists, including reimbursement of
telephone and Internet expenses, entitling all scientists to air travel on official duty - perks that most private sector
executives take for granted.
However, the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission have not gone down well with DRDO scientists.

6th Pay Commission: Government clears doubt on tax on pay arrears
6th Pay Commission: Government clears doubt on tax on pay arrears
17 Sep, 2008, 0108 hrs IST, ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: The lack of clarity over taxation of arrears that government employees will receive following the implementation
of the 6th Pay Commission recommendations has finally cleared. The tax on first installment will be deducted in the current
fiscal and that on the second installment will be deducted next year when they receive the actual payment.
Confusion had arisen about the tax treatment of the pay arrears that central government employees are about to get as part of
their latest wage revision. According to finance ministry sources, only the first installment of the arrears would be taxed
this fiscal. The taxation, they would be akin to the tax treatment in 1997 when the fifth pay commission recommendation was
implemented wherein the tax was deducted at the time of payment.
If the tax is deducted, employees who do not fall in the slab of 30% rate of income tax, would have to bear a surcharge, as
their total income, including both installments would have been higher. As per the current income tax slab, income over Rs
2,50,000 attracts a tax rate of 30% and income above Rs 10,00,000 attracts a rate of 30% as also 10% surcharge.
The government had last month announced an average increase of 21% in the wages of its employees. It had decided to pay 40%
arrears of their increased salaries this year and the rest next year to reduce the burden on the exchequer.

Sixth Pay Commission: States want Centre to bear 50 pc burden of pay revision
Sixth Pay Commission: States want Centre to bear 50 pc burden of pay revision
New Delhi, Sep 16 (PTI) The VAT panel wants the Union Government to bear at least half of the financial burden that the
states will have to bear following the implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission recommendations.
"At least 50 per cent of the additional financial burden of the states as a result of the Centre's decision on the Sixth
Central Pay Commission should be shared by the Central Government," Chairman of Empowered Committee of State Finance
Ministers on VAT Asim Dasgupta told reporters here today.
The pay panel's recommendation on pay revision of the Central Government employees is to be implemented from the current
month itself.
Many states like Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Chhattisgarh and Tamil Nadu have also decided to go for pay revision of their
employees.
However, in case of special category and north-eastern states, the VAT panel asked the Centre to bear the entire additional
burden of the pay revision.
Dasgupta said another option was that financial burden was fully accommodated by the Thirteenth Finance Commission, while
assessing expenditure needs of the states.
He stressed the Commission should work on modalities, which would provide a more justified relief to the states.
Referring to the royalty on coal and other minerals, the VAT panel asked the Thirteenth Pay Commission to revise it
frequently and wanted that the states were not denied their legitimate share on royalties on oil and power. PTI
