 Infosys CFO Rajiv Bansal resigns, Ranganath D Mavinakere new CFO

Describing the Emergency imposed from 1975-77 as the “biggest blow” to democracy in India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Sunday that it gave birth to a new generation of political leadership that was ready to “live and die for the country”, and not just “for TV screens”.
“Leadership born during Emergency was not one for TV screens. It was a leadership to live and die for the nation,” said Modi while paying tributes to socialist leader Jayaprakash Narayan on his 113th birth anniversary.
Modi’s comments came a day before the first phase of polling in the Bihar assembly elections where many of those who fought together against the Emergency imposed by the Congress government of Indira Gandhi are in opposing camps now — from JD(U)’s Nitish Kumar and RJD’s Lalu Yadav to BJP’s Sushil Kumar Modi.

The first stethoscope

By
René Laennec, a French doctor and inventor was born 235 years ago today, and Google has marked his birthday with a Doodle. Dr Laennec's importance to modern medicine was guaranteed by his invention of the very first stethoscope in 1816. Here are five things you (probably) didn't know about him : 1. Dr Laennec's stethoscope bears little semblance to the modern stethoscope. Unlike those used today, Dr Laennec's stethoscope was not a set of ear pieces connected by a plastic tube to a chest piece. His stethoscopes were simple cylinders made from wood and metal. The doctor using it would simply place it directly over the area in question and listen at the other end. 2. His first stethoscope was a rolled up piece of paper Described in his  1819 treatise  on this device, Dr Laennec invented the stethoscope while treating a young woman suffering from symptoms of heart disease. 3. The stethoscope was not his only contribution to medical science I...

While we are not sure if this has anything to do with the rumours that Lenovo may discontinue its Vibe range to prevent cannibalisation of Motorola sales, Sharma yet again asserted "Vibe" range is not going anywhere . Lenovo at the Delhi launch event on Tuesday also showed some statistics to show how popular the Lenovo K3 Note really is in the country. The handset was the third most searched phone in 2015, based on Google's release data for India , and the company had sold around 1.2 million units. W...
