List of Old Doordarshan TV shows and Serials - AbhiSays.com The 80s was the era of Doordarshan with soaps like Hum Log, Buniyaad and comedy shows like Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi which made Doordarshan a household name.

Let’s start with the most popular one: And the one most popular with educators: If you want to start at the end and see a student’s final product before getting to the steps involved in making them, pause and watch an example of one of the final videos below before reading on: This is a unit that was built from the beginning to end with an RSA Animate style video. So let’s start there… 2012 was coming to a close and I still noticed some important things that my kids could not do yet. The other problem was that the words they were reading were just that…words. As I thought about these problems, I decided that making RSA Animate style videos would address all of these. Day 2-Drawings

The Man Who Wanted to Wed 500 Times Holder of world records for the most flags tattooed on his body, most straws stuffed in his mouth and longest non-stop scooter journey ever, Guinness Rishi explains his need to break and set new records In 1980, I was asked by my company to cover the length and breadth of India on a Luna 50 cc moped. I worked for an auto parts company, Novelty Auto Traders, and was asked to promote our products on the journey. Some journalists told me that this was the longest journey undertaken on a moped, possibly in the world. By 1983, however, the calls had stopped. My mind was made up by 1986: I would attempt the record for the longest non-stop scooter ride. This required plenty of preparation. By 1990, we were ready. We completed the task in 42 days and 42 nights—30,965 km in 1,001 hours. I wrote to the Guinness Book of World Records in 1991 and asked permission to use their name. I knew I had to keep setting records to stay in the market. Officially, I have held only five Guinness records.

Columns / Harsh Mander : Barefoot - The other side of life LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE: Matt (left) and Tushar. Photo courtesy: RS100ADAY.COM Can anyone really live on Rs. 26 a day, the income of the officially poor in rural India? Two youngsters try it out. Late last year, two young men decided to live a month of their lives on the income of an average poor Indian. The idea suddenly struck them one day. To begin with, what was the average income of an Indian? The young men moved into the tiny apartment of their domestic help, much to her bemusement. Living on Rs.100 made the circle of their life much smaller. However, the bigger challenge remained. For this, they decided to go to Matt's ancestral village Karucachal in Kerala, and live on Rs. 26. Yet, when their experiment ended with Deepavali, they wrote to their friends: “Wish we could tell you that we are happy to have our ‘normal' lives back. It disturbs us to spend money on most of the things that we now consider excesses. We don't know the answers to these questions.

5 Fundamental Skills Every Artist Should Master As an artist, your job is to immerse your viewers into a world that you have built and guide them safely through it. Artists have much in common with storytellers. Storytellers have several tricks that they use to keep their readers coming back for more. Like storytellers, artists can use similar tricks to help them produce more compelling artwork. The most important aspect of art to me personally is the composition. This is the simplest and most used composition technique, one that I use a lot myself. The main idea behind this is to place your most important element/object on one of the intersections where the lines converge (the +'s), as well as along or near the vertical line of wherever your focal may lie. It is believed that when this is used and your subject/focal sits on one of these spots, it creates more interest in your picture rather than having it centered. You can use these basic guides either as a starting point for more complex compositions or to create an entire piece.

An Open Letter To Prospective Indian Employer « Random Thoughts of a Demented Mind NYTimes India Ink carries a lot of nice things. Sometimes though, it does not. As an example, this hectoring “An Open Letter to India’s Graduate Classes” delivered from a position of moral, ethical and overall-I-am-awesome-and-you-are-not superiority. Here is my response. Dear Prospective Indian employer, This is your prospective/current employee. Life is good—except that it’s not. Today, we regret to inform you that you are spoiled. So why this letter, and why should you read on, seeing that I am making gross generalizations about “Indian employers”, affixing stereotypical labels on a heterogeneous group. Well, because based on collective experience of working for Indian employers, some truths have become apparent. There are five key attributes Indian employees typically seek and, in fact, will value more and more in the future. 1. A rather basic requirement really. 2. Another rather basic requirement isnt it? 3. If you want to have your employees be original, encourage that activity.
