Right To Left :)

A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns

from his Middle East assignment.

A friend asked, "Why weren't you successful with the Arabs?"

The salesman explained, "When I got posted in the Middle East,

I was very confident that I will makes a good sales pitch

as Cola is virtually unknown there.

But, I had a problem I didn't know to speak Arabic.

So, I planned to convey the message through 3 posters...

First poster, a man crawling through the hot desert sand...

Totally exhausted and panting.

Second poster, the man is drinking our Cola and

Third, our man is now totally refreshed.

Then these posters were pasted all over the place"

"That should have worked," said the friend.

The salesman replied, "Well, not only did I not speak Arabic,

I also didn't realise that Arabs Read from Right to Left..."

DHOBI GHAT(Mumbai diaries)

Director: Kiran Rao

Starring: Aamir Khan, Prateik, Monica Dogra

Rating: 

Some movies knock you out with a punch, others gently lay you down, soothe your fevered brow and lull you into a dream. Movies about Mumbai tend to do the former. But Kiran Rao's deeply personal Dhobi Ghat takes you by the hand, leads you to its doorstep and then leaves you to gawk, with pleasure. At Shai Edulji's (Monica Dogra) unknowingly selfish world, where her little indulgence can be someone else's life-altering experience. At Arun's (Aamir Khan) self-absorbed existence, divided between his art and his brooding. At Yasmin's (Kriti Malhotra) video letters to her brother in Malihabad, full of yearning but edged with sadness.

And of Munna's (Prateik) silent ambition, evident in the glistening worked-upon body he admires in a mirror dotted with Salman Khan cut outs. We know enough from Alejandro Inarritu's works that these separate characters will eventually have overlapping lives, but when they do, it is not with a bang but with the steady shimmer of Mumbai's ever-present rain. Rao's actors are fresh, even Khan, who shocks us mildly by using words like f*** and a******. It's an acutely observed and unhurried film. Munna bathing by the side of the railway tracks under cover of darkness, the colours on Arun's canvas melting into the meat frying in the stalls of Mohammad Ali road, begum Akhtar's voice filling the void of a flat, the domestic's daughter proudly reciting tennyson's brook. Arun's drawing the one he's falling in love with, Shai's photographing the one she's becoming obsessed with. One woman's art is another man's reason for living.

Will Kolkata's Prince be Kochi king?

KOLKATA: Eleven days after the auctioneer brought down his hammer for the last time at IPL players' auction in Bangalore, a ray of hope has emerged for Sourav Ganguly, who was ignored by all the 10 franchises. Team Kochi, which will be making its IPL debut in the ensuing T20 event, have belatedly realised their folly and are keen to take Ganguly on board. The Kochi management, who clearly showed no aptitude for team composition and failed to net a single capped Indian batsman other than VVS Laxman, have approached the Governing Council to allow them to sign the former India captain. However, they can do so only if the other nine franchises raise no objection to this out-of-auction deal. 

The BCCI, on its part, has no objection. "If the franchises have no objection, why should we stand in any player's way to play in the IPL? However, there is no question of bending the rule or making an exception," said a Governing Council member. 

IPL rules state that capped players put up for auction, can only be bought through an open bidding process. Ganguly, along with Mumbai captain Wasim Jaffer and Punjab pacer VRV Singh were the only three Indian players to remain unsold at the end of the two-day auction. 

Spanish alphabet (alfabeto español)

If you know the alphabet in English, French, German or many other languages, you can easily learn it in Spanish.

That is because the Spanish alphabet is very similar to the alphabets of most European languages. According to Real Academia Española, which is considered the arbiter of what's official Spanish, the following letters make up the Spanish alphabet:

a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, ñ, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z

In other words, the Spanish alphabet, with 27 letters, is the same as the English alphabet with the addition of the ñ.

The following chart shows the capital letters along with name of each letter:

What should be done after B.Tech: MBA or M.tech?

B.Tech is a bachelor level course in Technology. Thus, one cannot take it as the last and final qualification degree, especially in the present time when the market is full of competition all around. In the present era, there are more applicants than the number of job available, and hence it is very essential for everyone to be specialized in their respective field. As far as B.Tech degree course is concerned, it does provide specialization, but not of that higher level as provided by MBA or M.Tech.

Thus, it is some sort of invisible compulsion that one needs to do MBA or M.Tech in order to progress more in one’s field. But the question arises, that what should be done MBA or M.Tech?

This decision completely depends on the person and his or her personal interest. Both the course provides ample specialization, but both provide specialization in separate sectors. If one is more interested in engineering line and want to work in their trade line and want to make a career with engineering projects, then without delay one should go for M.Tech. That will help them in getting a better rank and post in the same line in which they were working or wanted to work after the completion of their B.Tech degree.

However, if one is more interested in working in the management aspect of companies rather than engineering line, one should go for the MBA degree. MBA will enable them to work from the management front where they can manage the resources for the benefits of various aspects of the business.
