The entry-level C1 model is priced at Rs.1,999 and comes with flashlight and FM radio. It will have a ‘call divert' feature to ensure that users do not miss a call from either of the two SIMs. However, the handset can only be used for voice and SMS. Similarly, C2 model, which will be available later this year, will allow users to access services such as Ovi Life Tools and Ovi Mail. It will also have a music player and support micro-SD cards of up to 32 GB capacity. “As per our deep consumer insights, entry-level consumers need dual SIMs for various reasons. To address these consumer requirements, Nokia has launched these two devices that offer multiple SIM capabilities with a balanced feature set and ‘relevant innovations' at affordable price points,” Nokia Executive Vice-President (Mobile Phones) Mary McDowell told journalists here.

Re: [AI] required difference bitwene soft skills and personality development req-reg
Welldone Himanshu, Excellent presentation with full description. Regards Jyotsna On 9/2/10, Himanshu Sahu sahu.himanshu2...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Well, don't have much idea about psychology, but one and half years back I had prepared one presentation During my course in A I C B, pasting it, hope would be of your some help. Soft skill Every human being is made of few qualities and abilities through he live his life and earns livelihood and recognition in the society. There are several degrees and diploma which a person can achieve by indulging into study and continuity of doing hard work. Even a businessman who is running his business needs some abilities to run it successfully. These abilities are called Skill. And Skill can be divided into two domains that is 1. Domain General Skill and 2. Domain Specific skill. General skill includes your time management, team work, articulation, leadership self motivation and others. While specific skill would be the technical knowledge something which is required for a specific kind of job or work? Since the world has become globalize and the opportunities are wide open for everyone whosoever wants to achieve anything to it’s extend. But acquiring such success you need some extraordinary quality which makes a person different from others and that is the soft skill. Soft skill is nothing but to an added feature or quality which provides you an edge through you can make a mark on others. Soft skill is a sociological term for a person’s emotional intelligence, which refers to the cluster of personality trade. Your articulation, friendliness, optimism, modesty, meticulation, social grace can set you apart from others. Soft skill always compliments hard skill. It polishes your technical knowledge to execute in a better manner. In this competitive world every employer wants to have an employ with some added quality in addition of their standard qualification through they can get more business for the company. Specially in those companies which are directly related with customers and dealing them frequently. These companies provides special induction training to their employees that how to enhance and how to use soft skills to earn more success for themselves and company. Working with a team spirit and meticulously can really bring prosperity for the company. Having such employees is a real asset for any company. Example: You all must be knowing about the famous painter Makbool Fida Hussain. Last year he sold one of his collections of painting in Rs. 100 crore .There are several painter and artist also working in same profession but what is the extra ordinary quality he is having to earn such a great amount for his paintings? The answer is his cultivation of thoughts, innovative ideas of experimenting different and untouched aspects of human life and nature. As we know about his fame and profoundness across the globe, and he is able to use all of his soft skills like, promoting his art on and across the world in an impressive and dignified manner. Having a good relationship with world art community and the most importantly his own wisdom and meticulation which make him favorite for the byres. There are several qualities which we can count as the soft skill and here I am going to throw some lights on these five skills and these are- 1. Communication Skill. 2. Interpersonal Skill. 3. Time Management. 4. Networking and socializing. 5. Personal grooming and etiquettes. 1.Can you please tell me which all things can be considered as the communication skill? Communication is the medium through we express our views and opinion to others and simultaneously we come to know about the other’s view and opinion. There are two types of communications- 1. Verbal communication and 2. Written communication. In verbal communication we converse with people face to face or a through telephonic conversation. While in written communication we express our views through letters or e-mail. For becoming a good communicator we must understand few things like having a good control on the language must be prioritize. A hold on certain language will always help you to communicate properly with others. There are thousand of languages exists in this world, but the one language which has become the International language and that is English. So if you are having a good knowledge of English than certainly it is fruitful for you. While communicating with others our articulation of thoughts can really help a listener to make him understand lucidly. Your modest attitude can bring out your real inner charm and notion. Always keep flexibility through you can mold yourself according to situation. There are people who always start blowing their own drum pad and don’t let other speak, we must avoid such habits because listening is also an art and it is often seen that a good listener can be a good speaker. While listening one

Re: [AI] formula for prime numbers
Divisibility test for 7 Sir, the divisibility test for 7 is as mentioned below: • Take the last digit in a number. • Double and subtract the last digit in your number from the rest of the digits. • Repeat the process for larger numbers. • Example: 357 (Double the 7 to get 14. Subtract 14 from 35 to get 21 which is divisible by 7 and we can now say that 357 is divisible by 7. Further, we cannot simply use these divisibility tests to determine if a No. is prime. For instance, a number might not be divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11. However, the same number might be divisible by some other No. Therefore, it is imparative that we work out all the steps as given in my previous mail.

[AI] Examinations
Most of you know that I have been working on the guidelines for examinations especially the issue of scribes for some time. All of us have realised the need for standard guidelines in the country. After the maharashtra guidelines were issued many of you approached me and have been approaching me regularly for All India guidelines. Therefore it is time to act. I have based my work on the: 1. Guidelines in Maharashtra 2. Minutes of meeting held in2008 3. Judgement in Asif's case 4. University of Bombay's circular on psychology I need to know from each of you as to what you want in the new Rules. What you want to safe guard against,What you want the Examination authority to take care of and what will be the visually challenged's responsibility. Anything that I should take into account especially for any particular exam. Please ask for the moon we just might get it of course be practical. Think of all the variations and combinations and complications that someone somewhere may face. Thats why I am still on this group. I cannot take care of the idiot who denies the rules but I can ensure good rules on paper at least. So lets go for it. Please dont send me a list of what happened in the past I cant rectify it but I can see that it does not happen again. So requesting for some input. The new rules will apply to : 1.

Re: [AI] Examinations
I opine that: the only bar on scribe taken by candidate should be that she/he should not be eligible to appear for exactly the same exam at the time she is so acting. This condition should be sufficient to satisfy the paranoids who devise ever new criteria for scribe eligibility. Besides, Imposition of scribe should be guarded against, at the same time leaving scope open for candidate to request a competent scribe in advance, if candidate so wishes. scope should also be left for eleventh hour changes, provided they satisfy the prescribed eligibility mentioned above. Use of technology be facilitated, in conjunction with human aid, and not necessarily as the sole mode for taking the exam. -Original Message- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Pamnani Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2010 4:29 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: [AI] Examinations Most of you know that I have been working on the guidelines for examinations especially the issue of scribes for some time.

Re: [AI] Examinations
May I add a proviso to the eligibility condition mentioned in my earlier mail to the effect that the scribe should not have appeared in the same exam at any past time, or could have appeared but for upper age limit. Simplified, the eligibility condition for the scribe should be: Anybody who has not appeared for and is not eligible to appear for exactly the same exam as she is acting as scribe at the time,, and such ineligibility should not be merely due to upper age limit for the exam. -Original Message- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Pamnani Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2010 4:29 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: [AI] Examinations Most of you know that I have been working on the guidelines for examinations especially the issue of scribes for some time.

Re: [AI] Examinations
Hi, I am currently in class X, and am aiming at IIT-JEE and other engineering examinations. What I expect of the examining authorities is: 1. As already mentioned, a scribe who knows about Sciences/any other subjects for that matter, so that he can explain the questions properly to the candidate. Put it across in a different way, in technical subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics which are full of symbols and other pictorial stuff, the scribe should be such who can easily explain the question properly to the candidate. Invigilation can ensure that no malpractice/unfair means on the part of the candidate is taking place. 2. As far as possible, visually impaired students should be exempted from questions involving figure inputs. For instance, in my case, subjects like Physics and Chemistry have complecated diagrams or structures, that cannot be explained to the visually challenged students that easily. Even if they are explained, the candidate have absolutely no prior exposure to such questions, making it extremely difficult for us to answer it. Therefore, reasonable accomodations in terms of exemption from pictorial inputs to the extent possible should be provided. 3. Suitable extra time should be provided. Although most of the examinations have this rule in place, however many of the professional/technical entrace examinations like IIT-JEE, AIEEE, BITS-to name a few, do not have any such rules. 4. Use of technology in taking the examination should be promoted. For instance, the question papers can be provided on the computers (wherever possible), so that the visually challenged candidate can easily and indipendently answer the questions. I hope that you will consider these inputs seriously, so that the talents and capabilities of all blind students are evaluated on an equal basis with other students.

Re: [AI] Exam - writer guidelines
Dear Kanchan Mam, I second Rajesh sir's recommendations and am of an opinion that their incorporation in the guidelines would be of immense benefit. In addition to them, I would like to recommend the following provisions: 1. there should be no restriction on the writer being from the same stream (arts, commerce or science) or taking the same course (CA, MBA, BSC etc.) as the VI. In fact, if some how the guideline acknowledges the benefits of having a writer from the same stream or course and is expressly supportive of the same, the VI would have an important legal document in their arsenal. 2. An expressed provision allowing a writer to be elder to the candidate provided the writer is not eligible to take the same exam at the given time would be helpful. 3. The guidelines may allow the school and colleges to allow an over qualified writer for internal exams only. To avoid a possibility of any malpractice the school and college authorities may be advised to appoint proper supervisors. 4. The examination authorities should be required to provide alternative theory questions for questions like maps, graphs etc requiring use of eyesight. Further, the candidate should have an option to attempt either of the alternatives and should be given full credit for the same. 5. The candidate should have a right to demand the question paper in an accessible format like braille or enlarged font or, soft copy in format of choice like Microsoft word etc. Also the candidate should have a liberty to answer the questions in the way comfortable like self written with the help of a reader, written with the help of a writer, written with the help of compatible computers etc. Where a candidate wishes to use a computer to answer the questions, it must be ensure that the computer is able to host the necessary softwares, is not prone to crashing or hanging and is of good speed. As many of us may have softwares with a single machine license, the candidate should be allowed to use his/her own machine like laptop or desktop. To avoid any malpractice, the authorities should make appropriate arrangements for supervision. 6. It would be great if the guidelines allow at least half of minute of extra time for every 1 minute of the regular exam duration i.e. 50% extra time. At a minimum, this should be implemented for practical subjects like accounts. Very frankly, I think for practical subjects a VI with severe disability should be allowed 2/3rds extra time i.e. 2 hours for a 3 hour paper as many of these exams certainly require the same. Additionally, this would help in cases where the writer and the candidate may for whatever reasons are actually meeting for the first time in an exam hall and have never had an earlier opportunity of practicing. 7. All exam authorities should be required to display the complete writer guidelines. Preferably, the home page of the websites if any should have a direct link with a standard nomenclature to the said guidelines. 8. The permission for allowing a writer may be disclosed on website along with the admission card for major exams like standard 10th, 12th, graduation, CAT etc. 9. The authorities should be required to disclose the procedure for requesting a change in writer along with the required documentation and name and all contact details of the concerned person. Further, in cases of major exams like the boards, graduation, CA MBA etc, there should be at least two centrally designated authorities who may be approached in case of any difficulty like harassment at the examination centre. Their full contact details including mobile number and email id should be disclosed on the websites of the examination authorities and should be replicated in the permission letter. 10. The guidelines should clearly mandate that no authority can impose additional restrictions than those envisaged in the said guidelines. To conclude, I am of an opinion that supervision should be used as a tool for preventing and detecting any malpractice. Needless or avoidable restrictions should not be resorted to as an easy solution for the same. Best Regards, Apoorv Kulkarni Mob: 9833423344 BSR allows reasonable personal use of the e-mail system.

[AI] NGO offers helpline for disabled
Date:03/09/2010 URL: http://www.thehindu.com/2010/09/03/stories/2010090351120100.htm Front Page NGO offers helpline for disabled Karthik Madhavan COIMBATORE: Finally, there is one place where all persons with disabilities (PWDs) can turn to - if not for all their needs, at least for most. U and Disabled (UDIS) Forum, an NGO working for PWDs, has set up a helpline offering a host of services. It will be a one stop shop for PWDs, says M.N.G. Mani of UDIS. By dialling 0422 2405551 or 0422 2648006 or 99445 56168 one can learn about the schemes devised by Central and State governments for PWDs, the schemes available for education or service organisation that wish to assist PWDs, how to access disability-related facilities from various sources, about assistive devices and their availability, referral centres for education and rehabilitation, disability components in public and private sector enterprises and employment opportunities in industries. They can also access information related to disabled people's organisations and parents' groups, important national and international developments on disability and database on disabled persons. Mr. Mani, who is also the Secretary General of the International Council for Education of People With Visual Impairment, says that the helpline is also open for those who want to assist PWDs. Say, an organisation might want to recruit such people and it might be interested in knowing if any of the governments provide grant or not. Even such information is available at the helpline. The challenged people can access the helpline to gather information about whom to contact for their needs, what documents to be submitted, if they are availing of a scheme, and where to look for a job. He further says: In effect the helpline aims at involving all stakeholders, optimising their efforts and bridging the gap between PWDs and others. Information Information will be available between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the helpline. Assistance will also be available to those who visit the UDIS Forum in person. They can get forms for various schemes, aside from information. As for the database on PWDs, he says the details will be gathered with assistance from the District Disabled Welfare Office. And the UDIS advisory committee for helpline will meet periodically and update information.

Re: [AI] Exam - writer guidelines
I will write my opinions later today. But I just want to share a view from Apoorv's email. He said authorities should provide alternate questions instead graphs, maps etc. Why should we need that? Instead, why can't we ask them to provide the same in accessible formats like Tactile? In today's technology era, is it not possible? Of course, same must be taught at school level itself. On 9/2/10, Kulkarni, Apoorv apoorvkulka...@kpmg.com wrote: Dear Kanchan Mam, I second Rajesh sir's recommendations and am of an opinion that their incorporation in the guidelines would be of immense benefit. In addition to them, I would like to recommend the following provisions: 1. there should be no restriction on the writer being from the same stream (arts, commerce or science) or taking the same course (CA, MBA, BSC etc.) as the VI. In fact, if some how the guideline acknowledges the benefits of having a writer from the same stream or course and is expressly supportive of the same, the VI would have an important legal document in their arsenal. 2. An expressed provision allowing a writer to be elder to the candidate provided the writer is not eligible to take the same exam at the given time would be helpful. 3. The guidelines may allow the school and colleges to allow an over qualified writer for internal exams only. To avoid a possibility of any malpractice the school and college authorities may be advised to appoint proper supervisors. 4. The examination authorities should be required to provide alternative theory questions for questions like maps, graphs etc requiring use of eyesight. Further, the candidate should have an option to attempt either of the alternatives and should be given full credit for the same. 5. The candidate should have a right to demand the question paper in an accessible format like braille or enlarged font or, soft copy in format of choice like Microsoft word etc. Also the candidate should have a liberty to answer the questions in the way comfortable like self written with the help of a reader, written with the help of a writer, written with the help of compatible computers etc. Where a candidate wishes to use a computer to answer the questions, it must be ensure that the computer is able to host the necessary softwares, is not prone to crashing or hanging and is of good speed. As many of us may have softwares with a single machine license, the candidate should be allowed to use his/her own machine like laptop or desktop. To avoid any malpractice, the authorities should make appropriate arrangements for supervision. 6. It would be great if the guidelines allow at least half of minute of extra time for every 1 minute of the regular exam duration i.e. 50% extra time. At a minimum, this should be implemented for practical subjects like accounts. Very frankly, I think for practical subjects a VI with severe disability should be allowed 2/3rds extra time i.e. 2 hours for a 3 hour paper as many of these exams certainly require the same. Additionally, this would help in cases where the writer and the candidate may for whatever reasons are actually meeting for the first time in an exam hall and have never had an earlier opportunity of practicing. 7. All exam authorities should be required to display the complete writer guidelines. Preferably, the home page of the websites if any should have a direct link with a standard nomenclature to the said guidelines. 8. The permission for allowing a writer may be disclosed on website along with the admission card for major exams like standard 10th, 12th, graduation, CAT etc. 9. The authorities should be required to disclose the procedure for requesting a change in writer along with the required documentation and name and all contact details of the concerned person. Further, in cases of major exams like the boards, graduation, CA MBA etc, there should be at least two centrally designated authorities who may be approached in case of any difficulty like harassment at the examination centre. Their full contact details including mobile number and email id should be disclosed on the websites of the examination authorities and should be replicated in the permission letter. 10. The guidelines should clearly mandate that no authority can impose additional restrictions than those envisaged in the said guidelines. To conclude, I am of an opinion that supervision should be used as a tool for preventing and detecting any malpractice. Needless or avoidable restrictions should not be resorted to as an easy solution for the same. Best Regards, Apoorv Kulkarni Mob: 9833423344 BSR allows reasonable personal use of the e-mail system.

Re: [AI] Examinations
1. How is it possible to prove that someone did not give the exam in the past? If the writer is younger than the candidate it may be possible but if my mom wrote an exam eg. a exam for recruiting to SBI for you then how will you prove that she didnt sit for the same exam 30 years ago? 2 . Also there are many exams like M. A. which does not have an upper age limit for the candidate so any person who is about 22 years or more even 100 will be eligible to give the exam. Can such a person be a writer? I dont know lets analyse these situations more in depth. I had started drafting but I put it aside because I knew there were many complications. I have read Apoorva, Kartik,Rakesh and Vasu's views. Waiting for others. This affects each of us and at various times in our lives. I also understand that there is a feeling that there should be tactile questions and that all visual questions should have alternatives. This is a great leap forward. However the young visually challenged have to be taught this from school. Are our organisations either special schools or supplementary facilities ready for this? I can tell you that one of the turning points in the latest physiotherapy case was when I handed over tactile diagrams of the foot to the judges. how many organisations have these machines, how many will do it on time, how many readily teach their kids to read and understand these?Sorry for going off on a tangent.

Re: [AI] Examinations
1. I said should not have appeared in the past, primarily to satisfy paranoids. However, it is better dropped. Or at least, a reasonable time limit, say past three years, may be prescribed. However, it also will lay the onus of proving the non-appearance on the candidate or scribe which is difficult. 2. Upper age limit I mentioned to mean that scribe should not be ineligible merely due to upper age limit for taking the exam. So, this condition does not apply to exams where there is no age limit. Hence, anybody, say who cannot appear for M.A. part 2 in English, because she does not have M.A. part 1 pass certificate in English, will be able to be a scribe. So will be anybody who has done PG in say, physics, or PH.D. in anything but English, for that matter. Upper age limit will come into play when, say, I take a scribe for SBI exam where upper age limit is 28 years, and minimum qualification for applying is graduation. So, a person who is 35, but who is a graduate cannot be a scribe, for she could herself have taken the exam, but for her being overage. Here, anybody who does not have a graduation degree will be a scribe I know this condition will deviate a little from strictly having one year junior scribe, but I propose it to be a short eligibility criteria for all exams. -Original Message- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Kanchan Pamnani Sent: Friday, September 03, 2010 9:13 AM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] Examinations 1.

I can tell you that one of the turning points in the latest physiotherapy case was when I handed over tactile diagrams of the foot to the judges. how many organisations have these machines, how many will do it on time, how many readily teach their kids to read and understand these?Sorry for going off on a tangent.

[AI] Ash in tears!
Ash in tears! PRITHWISH GANGULY, TNN, Sep 2, 2010, 12.00am IST http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-interviews/Ash-in-tears/articleshow/6473610.cms Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is rooting for the cause of the visually impaired as well as against cruelty to animals. She has been roped in by the Sahachari Foundation, a charitable trust established by 11 women of Mumbai that stands for uplift and empowerment of the needy. The foundation has constantly strived to help deserving NGOs in the field of education, healthcare, social welfare and promotion of culture. This year, the foundation is providing financial support to the Victoria Memorial School for the Blind and Bombay Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Aishwarya, who has pledged her own eyes to the noble cause, applauded the initiative. It is absolutely wonderful the kind of work and effort that these ladies have come together to do in such a subtle yet unconditional and sincere manner, Ash told BT. Ash also spent quality time with the children of the school, which was established in 1902. They sang for her in their passionate voices, making the eyes of the Most Beautiful Woman in the World turn moist. The principal of the school then acquainted the actress with the proposed projects that will be undertaken with the help of the funds raised. From the Foundation's annual calendar of fund-raising initiatives, the 'Design One' shopping fiesta is the most widely publicized and high-profile event. Scheduled to be held on September 8 and 9 at World Trade Centre, Design One provides a pre-festival exhibition platform on which designers showcase their creativity and do client-building. The range of merchandise includes fashion wear, accessories, jewellery, home and lifestyle products, silverware, gift items, packaging and food. This year, eight NGOs will be given complimentary stall space at the exhibition. Sahachari Foundation is thus encouraging entrepreneurship and promoting creativity while remaining committed to a philanthropic objective. Talking about why she chose to support this cause, Ash says, It's our own little steps to try and make a difference. It doesn't make all the difference but believe you me one step in itself quantifies as plenty. I have always believed that.

[AI] NGO offers helpline for disabled
COIMBATORE: Finally, there is one place where all persons with disabilities (PWDs) can turn to – if not for all their needs, at least for most. U and Disabled (UDIS) Forum, an NGO working for PWDs, has set up a helpline offering a host of services. “It will be a one stop shop for PWDs,” says M.N.G. Mani of UDIS. By dialling 0422 2405551 or 0422 2648006 or 99445 56168 one can learn about the schemes devised by Central and State governments for PWDs, the schemes available for education or service organisation that wish to assist PWDs, how to access disability-related facilities from various sources, about assistive devices and their availability, referral centres for education and rehabilitation, disability components in public and private sector enterprises and employment opportunities in industries. They can also access information related to disabled people's organisations and parents' groups, important national and international developments on disability and database on disabled persons. Mr. Mani, who is also the Secretary General of the International Council for Education of People With Visual Impairment, says that the helpline is also open for those who want to assist PWDs. “Say, an organisation might want to recruit such people and it might be interested in knowing if any of the governments provide grant or not. Even such information is available at the helpline.” “The challenged people can access the helpline to gather information about whom to contact for their needs, what documents to be submitted, if they are availing of a scheme, and where to look for a job.” He further says: “In effect the helpline aims at involving all stakeholders, optimising their efforts and bridging the gap between PWDs and others.” Information Information will be available between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the helpline. Assistance will also be available to those who visit the UDIS Forum in person. They can get forms for various schemes, aside from information. As for the database on PWDs, he says the details will be gathered with assistance from the District Disabled Welfare Office. And the UDIS advisory committee for helpline will meet periodically and update information. -- Thanks Regards, Raghavendra g, (Help ever and hurt never) Mobile: 99,16,444,272 Landline: 08155-317507 E-mail: raghavendra.hellore...@gmail rrg.hellore...@gmail rrg.hellore...@rediffmail skype: rrg.helloreddy Voice your thoughts in the blog to discuss the Rights of persons with disability bill at: http://www.accessindia.org.in/harish/blog.htm To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
