Outsourcing Legal Work (to the Midwest)

There was another article in the Washington Times about law firms outsourcing some of the work on their cases to other countries. One firm, Venable LLP, was quoted as saying "Clients are entitled to get these things done in an efficient way." *

This is a phenomenon that needs to be seriously considered. More than 3 million U.S. jobs have been outsourced to other countries in the past four years with a projected 13 million forecast to move offshore in the next 10 years. However, for patent legal work, the potential cost savings are more than a little murky. One article states that legal work that is done in the U.S. only costs one-tenth or one-twelfth the amount in India. I think they need to do their homework.

More to follow.....

Folks this is a good business ideas,if u are really pull in a few good lawyers and contacts together.

US' brain drain is India's brain gain

The tide is turning. A recent US report warned that the challenge for science and technology in America is that even if it does everything right, the world (read India, China) poses unprecedented competitive challenges. Ten years ago, such a report would have been scoffed at. Not any longer.

More and more Indian techies, scientists, doctors are homeward bound, giving up high-paying jobs abroad and joining R&D units, hospitals, government institutions or even their alma mater here. America's brain drain is becoming India's brain gain.

"It's a really exciting time to be here," declares Kunal Bajaj, project consultant with Telecom Regulatory Authority of India. An engineer-MBA from Wharton, Bajaj chucked his tech honcho's job with a New York company and came home to be part of the excitement - India's booming telecom sector.

Then there's Chandra Venkataraman, who's returned to teach at her alma mater, IIT Bombay. "The wide variety of jobs in R&D, management and engineering make it a real option to live and work in India." After doing her post-doctorate from Stanford, Chandra taught in the US for a year. And yet, "I never wanted to live anywhere else but India. There's always a connection with one's country that comes through our parents of the Independence generation - a sense of public service. There's also a feeling that if one works here, one can make a more meaningful contribution."

Is this not a good sign ?

tanjore paintings



Folks,

I have some really cool tanjore authentic vintage antiques...
I have them with me pls do let me know if you are interested to buy them.
These are more than 100 yrs old paintings from the chola kings descedents.
Below here is a quick reference to them.

............................................................................................................
Tanjore paintings
Tanjore Paintings, are a style of art that flourished with the patronage of the Maratha Kings in the 18th century in Southern India. These paintings are in the gilded and gemset technique with rich relief work.Available in Balaji, Lakshmi,Ganesh and Krishna
The process of making Tanjore paintings require dedication and skill from the artist. Each work of art is done stage by stage using semi-precious stones to decorate and takes days to complete. These paintings are done on wooden board on which layering of clay provides a three dimensional embossed effect.
The paintings depict scenes from the ancient scriptures of Hindu religion and are unique and rich in harmony of colors, designs, and traditional techniques blended with meticulous attention to details. The composition is characteristically static and consists generally of one main figure, the diety, centrally placed. The diety is formally housed within an enclosure of a palace or temple pavilion.
