NEW Addition TO FUN WITH WIRES...











FINALLY I HAVE THE PROCEDURE









its very simple

Mobile Shopping



Imagine going to a multiplex and deciding what movie to go for by simply downloading the VIDEO TRAILORS instantaneously on your mobile phone and purchasing the ticket from an electric video poster. You will also able to buy popcorns, soft drinks and even pay your parking tickets by just punching in certain numbers on your mobile phone at specially marked kiosks. Sounds too good to be true or seems like a scene straight out of a sci-fi movie? But hold on - this is no figment of the imagination. The technology for all this is now a reality at the French tourist town of Caen. In an experiment involving companies like Orange and Philips and the town mayor’s office, Caen’s citizen have been using this technology since December 2005 at a number of locations, including an underground car park, the town hall and a bus stop that transmits information on bus schedules. The town also has a cinema poster that enables the users to download video trailers, a supermarket where people can pay for their groceries via a mobile phone, and a tourist information sign outside the historical Abbaye des Hommes.


To avail of this sophisticated service, all one needs is a near field communication (NFC) compatible mobile phone. NFC is a technology that is used for exchanging data from the consumer’s electronic devices (personal computers, mobile phones). The system is based on the phenomenon of inductive coupling, where loosely coupled inductive circuits share power and data over small distances. It operates within a frequency range of 13.56MHz. When NFC-compliant devices are brought close together, they detect the presence of the other device and begin to determine how they can interact to transfer the data. The ability to read and write to tags makes it potentially adaptive as a platform wider than just advertising and ticketing. Visa USA, Philips, Nokia, Cingular, Atlanta Spirit, Chase, and ViVOtech have been working on a major NFC trial that has been underway at the Philips Arena stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, allowing sport fans to buy goods at the concession stands easily. Consumers can also access and download contents like ringtones, wallpapers, screensavers and clippings of their favourite players and artists by holding the NFC-enabled phone in front of a poster embedded with an NFC tag.

Currents Of Education


The plural school was considered as a lever of the renewal teaching which has made vogue at the beginning of the years 1970 . this Program of plural school was introduced for modify radically the organization of school work with the adoption of new school rhythms for the teachers and the pupils. It proposes a rupture with the traditional processes and the techniques of teaching, which are based on the cumulative and transmissible design of knowledge; the elimination of the mechanisms of school reprobation clean of the selective and attesting design of evaluation of teaching, put an end to the one-way practices where only the teacher has the capacity to evaluate, by thus introducing a new educational relation where all the partners of the teaching act take part in a mutual evaluation. The plural action plan proposes to modify the relationship to knowledge, by seeking new significances for the school contents from the point of view of globalization and transdisciplinarity. the pioneers of this concept carry out a series of experiments to reduce the the inequalities of the chances and to fight against the school losses and failures. One thus starts to set up the emergent school, meeting a need political and teaching for reorganization of the school system, without pushing back other currents innovating like the participative school or the school integrated in its environment or the school citizen… It should be noted however that these currents converge towards common objectives to knowing democratization of education and the equal opportunity of success. the action plan comprises several measurements:

- a more radical collective intervention to assure the human formation
- the school becomes a field of cultural actions.
- new social and professional identity of the school.
- To seek practices and actions in the school which develop the diversity of the total formation of learning.
- To consider the experiment of each age of formation, without interruption, by redefining times and spaces of the school organization in order to guarantee the rights of childhood, the adolescence and of the adulthood;
- To rediscover the force of socialization of the school, while maintaining educated nearly their pairs of age and to assure Socialization appropriate to each cycle of formation.
- To recognize the role of the professional of the education as an active partner of the local community.
In this new logical, the training of learning occupies the center of the educational process, whose objective is the formation and the social-cultural experiment clean of each age, putting fine at the traditional education centered on the process of transmission and the assimilation of the contents curricular where the pupil must assimilate a maximum of preset contents whose approval is a condition to admit it with higher cycle. plural school incorporates the design of total formation by admitting the diversity of the rhythms differentiated in the educational process of each learning, in order to gradually carry out towards his autonomy and his own assumption of responsibility

Trough The Poor Lanes


While walking through the small lanes, a paperboard drew my attention. I was scribing on there: REFRIGERATOR to sell. The letters were badly aligned. It was clear that this sign was written, by somebody who usually does not write. But , one can say that it is almost a table painted with much talent. Curiosity pushes me to throw a glance on this refrigerator. I strike what resembles a door of a hut fallen in ruins. A woman exceeding forty, well arranged hairstyle, wearing a dress which does not have any more a color, but which is very clean, a child of approximately five years holding her hand. She invites me with a natural smile to entry in the kitchen which is not with the fact that a small corner of the SINGLE ROOM of the hut. The pieces of furniture are summarized with a bed, a table out of used wooden, a small case with drawers and the refrigerator concerned. Without preamble, she says to want to sell this article, indicating the refrigerator with a sad air as if she tests sorrow to be separated from it. She specifies that she has an urgent need for money. While wanting to prolong the conversation, I pretend to discuss the price, but she avoids any discussion, while answering very briefly the only questions refer to the object of the sign. By opening the refrigerator, I find that in only one farm water carafe contains, which means that the refrigerator does not even function. I present my excuses at the poor lady to decline the buy. She answers me that the business is closed, although it would have wished to have money to pay the two late months rent, or else the owner would make her out in the street without pity. A tear in the eyes, with a voice which becomes suddenly quivering, she replies that her husband was in prison to have slapped his owner who refused to him the two days wages for absence forced to look after our sick child. By leaving the hut, I throw a last glance on his afflicting decoration. I was in a hurry to leave this lane of misery with a feeling of regret to have discovered this sad truth, and to be impotent to be able to come to assistance of this unhappy lady. The glance of the frail and thin child did much sorrow to me. By telling with my friend about this place, he says that unfortunately there are thousands of identical portraits of this woman, if not it had some worse. I answer that the so much praised development, does not benefit everyone. Undeceive your expensive my friend, it profits above all with the rich person who became more richness.

Disparate cultures

All over the world, gadgets make people behave in different ways. And sometimes, these ways are curious insights into the minds of disparate cultures. For instance, though the mobile phone arrived in the US long before it did in India, Americans took very long to warm up to text messages(SMS).
For reasons that are not fully explained it is South Korea and not the West or even Japan that has the fastest internet connectivity. Pakistan has the most recognisable organised hacking groups.
In India too, electronics is ushering in some unique behavioural patterns
Cellphones have solely increased the business in the slums, by two-fold, found a recent study by IITB. The uneducated young, they discovered, were more comfortable with technology than the educated old. With some more technological aid, the Indian poor would benefit more. There is an effort in this country to make phone navigation possible through voice than through buttons. Even existing Nokia phones can be easily altered to aid them with the help of software and by adding extra buttons, which do not cost much.
Considering an Indian's compulsions to do something in a flight, LG ,NOKIA and SONYERICSSON has recently introduced the in-flight mode in their cell phones, where passengers can play games and listen to MP3s while on the plane without going into communication mode. But what most cell companies truly love is the tendency among Indians, to carry two cell phones. Two billion phones is an alluring prospect.

NOKIA SYMBIAN TIPS AND TRICKS (PART -2)


Tip 1 : Do u know how to use the edit button (abc or pencil button)?
Heres how... in the inbox for example; u wanna delete multiple sms, simply hold the edit button, scroll down, and then, press c to delete the marked sms.
The edit button can also b used to copy and past text in sms, simply hold it and scroll across, choose copy. pretty good for placing song names in ngages

Tip 2 : Shit happens, on a smartphone, its inevitable u do something wrong, and this calls for a format of fone.
to format the fone, press *#7370#, then enter the lock code, which is the sec code of the fone.

NOTE : batt must b full, else if format is disrupted by low batt, consequences will b disatrous I heard the code *#7780# works too, pretty much the same i tink.for 6600 users,
to format the fone, theres an alternative way. Press and hold <3>, <*>, and the buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen.
tis method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code wun be reset to default 12345.
There are two kinds of formatting: hard formatting and soft formatting


SOFT formatting: This does not realy format your phone (c-drive). It restores ini files from rom but preserves user data (photos, 3rd party apps etc). This is just a normal reset!!HOW? There are two ways to do a normal reset:1) *#7780# (this seems to work only on S60 v6.1 and 7.0)2) Go to Settings, General and scroll down to factorysettings (works on all S60 phones)

HARD formatting: This reformats completely the C-drive. All applications and files stored on this drive will be lost and clean but default files will be rewritten. This is a deep reset.HOW? Again there are two ways:1) *#7370#2) When unable to startup your phone: press and hold the green (talk) key on the left + number 3 on the keypad + the * key and then turn the phone on. This trick works on every S60 v7.0 and it works fine on my 6630 too but without formatting screen...

Tip 3 : TO NGAGE USERS; Did u know u can install .sis files simply using the cable given? Juz plug it in, place the .sis file anywhere on e: (the mmc), not in any folders, root of e:, disconnect, then look for it in manager.

Tip 4: Save on battery and system memory being used by regulary checking the task manager which can be accessed by holding down the menu button!!

Tip 5: Type *#06# to display your IMEI serial number, very valuable for the unlocking your phone to other sim cards...

Tip 6: Save memory when installing apps, by installing over bluetooth. This can be done using the nokia phone suite and a bluetooth serial connection. Only works with .SIS files, so java still has to be sent to the phone, but will save space when using .SIS files.

Tip 7: Operator logosUse a filemanager like FExplorer or SeleQ to add the folders: "c:/system/Apps/phone/oplogo". Add a .bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart your phone! The .bmp picture size needs to be: 97 x 25 pixels

Tip 8: BlueJackingFirst up, you need to know what Bluetooth is.
There are lots of types of modern devices that incorporate Bluetooth as one of their many features. PDAs, mobile phones and laptops are a few of these modern devices.
Bluetooth means that Bluetooth enabled devices can send things like phonebook/address book contacts, pictures & notes to other Bluetooth enabled devices wirelessly over a range of about 10 metres.
So, we've got past the boring part.
Now, using a phone with Bluetooth, you can create a phonebook contact and write a message, eg. 'Hello, you've been bluejacked', in the 'Name' field.
Then you can search for other phones with Bluetooth and send that phonebook contact to them.
On their phone, a message will popup saying "'Hello, you've been bluejacked' has just been received by Bluetooth" or something along those lines.
For most 'victims' they will have no idea as to how the message appeared on their phone.

Tip 9: While you are viewing a picture in your phone's gallery, press one of these shortcut keys (definitely works on 6600, not sure about other symbians)
1 - turn image anticlockwise
3 - turn image clockwise
*- toggle on/off of full screen
5- zoom in
0 - zoom out

Tip 10: Operator logosUse a filemanager like FExplorer or SeleQ to add the folders: "c:/system/Apps/phone/oplogo".
Add a .bmp picture to folder "oplogo" and restart your phone! The .bmp picture size needs to be: 97 x 25 pixels

Tip 11: Check if the recepients phone is onDelivery reportsor Type *0# your message in the message composer window space then write your message, the recipient will not see the star zero hash bit - just the message When they read it it will relay a message back to your fone showing the time they recieved it.
