Growth forecasts for the EMS industry are weak - between 0% and 7.8% for the next three years, primarily due to the issues described above. The article argues that, until there is a new "killer app" (i.e., a new, innovative product), a reduction in capacity or a modified focus on customer interest, Mr. Miscoll doesn't see general growth in the industry.
One of the other criticisms Miscoll has of the industry is their focus on tweaking their value proposition rather than bringing real innovation to their business model. As I have learned from BPO, it isn't clear whether customers want innovation - or are willing to let outsourcing partners profit from innovation - so there may be external constraints here.
In fact, I would suggest that the article be read by all in outsourcing, regardless of industry. While the timing of the underlying issues may differ by industry segment, the issues themselves remain constant - maturity, capacity, customer service and innovation. Outsourcers of all stripes must continue to address these issues to sustain growth in the sector.
In addition to their highly publicized problem with sticking accelerator pedals, Toyota has recently announced a new problem with the 2010 Toyota Prius Model. This new issue is with the model’s anti-lock braking system, which causes the car to have an “inconsistent brake feel” on rough or slippery surfaces.
There have been at least 100 complaints from Prius buyers within the United States, and at least 2 injuries have been reported as a result. The Prius recall expands the number of Toyota vehicles to have been recalled by an additional 437,000 vehicles.
Which Toyota Prius vehicles are affected?
This new Toyota recall will only affect 2010 Prius models manufactured before January 27th. Previous generation models are unaffected because they have different brake system software. Beginning at the end of February, Toyota will send letters out to all affected Prius owners, notifying them of the brake defect. The repair, Toyota said, will involve a simple, 30-minute installation of new anti-lock brake software.
Does this have anything to do with the unexpected acceleration recall?
This Toyota recall issue is completely different from the issue of unexpected acceleration, which affects 2.3 million Toyota cars because of sticking accelerator pedals. The 2010 Prius model is not included in the unexpected acceleration recall. This is only a problem with the anti-lock brakes which, Toyota has claimed, can easily be fixed.
Is my Prius safe to drive?
According to a Toyota spokesman, the 2010 Prius is safe to drive. Of course, it is recommended that you use extreme caution when driving any recalled vehicle. If you do experience a problem with your brakes, do not pump the pedal. Instead, apply steady, firm pressure, pull your car over, and call a local dealership for assistance.
If you have been injured in a car accident that you believe was caused by the Toyota Prius brake issue, you may need to contact a personal injury attorney to discuss your rights to pursue a personal injury claim in connection with an accident caused by manufacturer defect.

Things change as time goes by and the business of wedding photography has not escaped these changes.
Long gone is the huge, one shot at a time, "Speed Graphic", camera, once the only camera considered suitable for the important task of documenting a wedding.
Next came medium format cameras and finally, when their resolution was considered high enough, 35mm took over.
Now it's digital cameras, almost exclusively, for wedding photographers. Their ease of use and the ability to have a darkroom at your fingertips in the form of graphics programs make it easier and quicker to have the photos in the happy couple's hands.
Of course all this has made it easier for amateurs to do a credible job of photographing a wedding even with a modest digital camera. This situation spells trouble for the pro wedding photographer's income.
Well, attendees will always take pictures at weddings, so the smart wedding photographer has to make his or her services more affordable and this article will help you adjust your pricing structure for digital wedding photographs.
Take a camera with you whenever possible, and look around, you'll find a picture somewhere.
