After Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan and Monaco, Taiwan participates in UK youth mobility scheme


After Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan and Monaco, its Taiwan
From 1 January 2012, Taiwan will join the list of countries and territories that participate in the UK's youth mobility scheme, under Tier 5 of the points-based system.
The scheme is for young people from participating countries and territories who want to come and experience life in the UK.
Every year, the UK government allocates a number of places on the youth mobility scheme for each country and territory.
For 2012, Taiwan, Japan and Monaco will each receive an allocation of 1,000 places. This is in line with the number of places offered to UK nationals on their reciprocal schemes.
Australia, Canada and New Zealand's allocations will match the number of UK nationals who were issued visas on their reciprocal schemes in the previous year:
Australia has 32,500 places, Canada 5,000 places and New Zealand 10,000 places
The UK Border Agency said the Immigration Rules will be amended on 1 January 2012 to reflect the addition of Taiwan to the scheme. A statement of changes to the Immigration Rules (HC 1693) was laid before Parliament on 8 December.

Indians in UK at-least have a reason to cheer now?. Indian-origin Seema Malhotra wins London bypoll


Indians in the UK have another reason to cheer. Indian-origin Labour candidate Seema Malhotra has won London bypoll.

Daughter of Indian immigrants, Malhotra grew up in Feltham and went to school in Heston.
Born in 1972, the British Labour Party politician is a former management consultant. She worked for Accenture and PriceWaterhouseCoopers and also founded the Fabian Women's Network.
She was a previous National Chair of the Young Fabians and worked as an adviser for Liam Byrne and Ian Austin, while Labour was in government.
Following Gordon Brown's resignation as Prime Minister in the wake of the 2010 general election, she worked for Harriet Harman during her tenure as Acting Leader of the Labour Party.
She comfortably won a by-election to the House of Commons from the Feltham and Heston constituency with an increased majority over the ruling Conservative party.
Malhotra retained the seat for Labour after a swing of 8.56 per cent points from the Tories.
Malhotra increased Labour's majority from 4,658 to 6,203 when she was declared elected with 12,639 votes. Mark Bowen, the Conservative candidate, came second with 6,436 votes while Roger Crouch, the Liberal Democrat, finished third with 1,364 votes.
The turnout was 28.7 per cent, the lowest in a by-election in 11 years.
The by-election was caused by the death last month of Alan Keen, who held the seat for Labour with a majority of 4,658 at the general election last year.
Celebrating the victory with her husband Sushil Saluja, Malhotra said: "This result is a great victory for Labour which shows the progress we are making under Ed Miliband's leadership, a vote of confidence in the way Labour is changing, listening hard, winning back the trust of the people we seek to serve.
"But this is also a wake-up call for (Prime Minister) David Cameron. This result shows how this Tory led government is totally out of touch.”

Top 3 First Day Collections in Tollywood

The whoofing opening weekend collections of 'Panjaa' have brought the debate on - Which Hero's film holds the record of Highest First Day Collections in Tollywood?

Here are the list of Top 3 First Day Collections in Tollywood:

Oosaravelli First Day Collections - 15.46 Crores.

Panjaa First Day Collections -  13.5 to 14.5 Crores.

Dookudu First Day Collections - 12.56 Crores.

Oosaravelli still holds the First Day record with a margin of Rs 1 crore.  The factors which helped this film are its wide range release (1800 screens - Biggest for any Tollywood film till date) and the combo of Jr NTR-Surender Reddy-Devi Sri Prasad.

Panjaa have taken humongous openings just for one reason - Pawan Kalyan. The film has no big names other than Powerstar himself. It is Director Vishnuvardhan's debut film in Tollywood and also released with less number of prints when compared with the other two biggies. Notably, the film has stood at No 2 position, despite all the negative talk. What will be the numbers if Pawan's film get unanimous hit talk? Unimaginable!!!

Dookudu shattered all existing records with unanimous positive talk and its wide range release. Mahesh Babu's popularity, his stamina in Overseas and the crazy combination of Mahesh Babu and Srinu Vytla has helped in fetching record openings.

Although Oosaravelli holds the First Day record, the First Week record is still with Dookudu. Let's see whether Panjaa crosses it or not!!!

You love their songs, but don’t want the foreigners here(UK)! Why This Kolaveri Di?




20 million viewers in less than one month....
Before saying anything about the song that has transcended so rhythmically social, ethnic, language and even geographical borders, it’s a musical idea to look up the meaning of the two melodic words Kolaveri Di.
alt
Even in India — the land of the rising song — most people do not understand the meaning of the words that have set the foot tapping and people swaying in the UK and other parts of the world.
The inboxes of all those having to do even a little bit with Bollywood have been flooded with queries — what’s the meaning of the two words? After all, everyone in India also does not understand Tamil language.
Composer Anirudh Ravichander, who came out with this song on debut, says: “Why this Kolaveri Di means `why do you have this murderous rage against me’?
It may sound music to your ears, but the entire process was actually over in 20 minutes. The tune came first. Once Ravichander came up with the tune, Dhanush heard and sang the words.
And if you are wondering, why the Kolaveri Di is called the ‘soup song’, Ravichander has an explanation: Soup is a Tamil word used for guys who go through failure in love. Words like these are used by young guys in real life but in a song, they were introduced by them. And, the words have worked well for Kolaveri Di.
What is more important than the basics — which movie is the song from? and other such issues — is the significance behind the success of the song.
Listen with your eyes closed and you realise individual taste may vary, but human beings across the world are so much the same. Good music and soothing lyrics relax their tired nerves; they sway and like to get swayed when something appeals to their senses. And, it’s the same for the blacks, and the whites.   
For once, incomprehensible singing of the somewhat comprehensive words and strangeness of the music is no deterrent. The rhyme and the rhythm binds you; and you sit glued to the small screen, listening and watching the song.
It does not matter whether you are an ardent supporter of the BNP policies, or fighting for the cause of the asylum seekers….
But, when it comes to the people hailing from the land of the hot song, chances are that the attitude of the natives with a stiff upper lip may change.
After all, foreigners are not natives. Their skin colour and tone, their language, and even their ethnicity is different. Why This Kolaveri Di? we ask.
Now about the basics, Lead actor of 3, the lyricist and singer of the Kolaveri song is Dhanush. He recently won the national award for his performance in Aadukalam. 3 is directed by Aishwarya Dhanush, the daughter of superstar Rajnikanth and wife of actor Dhanush. The film stars Shruthi Hassan, Kamaal Hassan’s daughter, and Dhanush in lead roles. It’s expected to be released on 14th January 2012.
