Prime Minister Stephen Harper, together with Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India, today announced the conclusion of negotiations for the Administrative Arrangement between Canada and India that will allow the implementation of the Nuclear Cooperation Agreement (NCA), signed between the two countries in June 2010. The announcement was made during the Prime Ministers six-day visit to India from November 3-9, 2012. Our Government is committed to promoting greater trade and investment with India, said the Prime Minister. The conclusion of the Administrative Arrangement with India will facilitate opportunities for Canadian companies to play a greater role in meeting Indias growing energy needs. It is expected to generate millions of dollars in new business contacts between our countries and to create high-quality new jobs here at home. The Nuclear Cooperation Agreement together with the Administrative Arrangement through which it will be implemented will allow Canadian firms to export and import controlled nuclear materials, equipment and technology to and from India to facilities under safeguards applied by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). NCAs provide international treaty level assurances that nuclear material, equipment and technology originating in Canada will only be used only for civilian and peaceful

direction for how Ontario selects, welcomes and assists immigrants to the province. It emphasizes the critical role skilled immigrants play in Ontarios economic development, as workers and job creators, in addressing labour market gaps due to the provinces aging population and low birth rate. The strategy also highlights how to better support immigrants and their families so they can succeed and contribute fully to Ontarios prosperity. Recommendations from Ontarios Expert Roundtable on Immigration and consultations across the province helped shape the strategy. With this new direction for immigration, the McGuinty government is focused on attracting highly skilled workers and their families, supporting diverse communities and growing a globally connected economy.

Paris Hilton in the House?

After giving the show a familyoriented twist this season, the makers of Bigg Boss are now gearing up to add one international name to the mix. The channel, Colors, has approached seven global celebrities, one of whom will appear on the show for a few days. An insider reveals, There are seven celebrities who have been approached, including Paris Hilton and actor Julia Roberts. The other names are actor Jackie Chan, boxer Mike Tyson, television host Padma Lakshmi, retired Australian cricketer Shane Warne and his fiancee, actor Liz Hurley. Apparently, some Pakistani celebrities were approached too. But the channel wants to play it safe. Also, two other Indian personalities will also enter the house in early November. One of the international names will be finalised as per their availability and fee. The production house and channel hope to lock the name in two weeks and bring the celebrity to India by the end of November, says the insider. In the previous two seasons, Baywatch actor

BIGG BOSS 6: Sapna Bhavnani abuses Salman Khan!

Celebrity hairstylist Sapna Bhavnani locked horns with Bigg Boss 6 host Salman Khan by calling him a serial womanbeater and admonishing him with cuss words. However, the producers decided to edit the portion from the episode. How it started In response to Bhavnanis claim that she was not on the show for money, the Dabangg Khan had said: If you are not here to play the game, are you on a picnic at a resort? But Sapna is surely not the one to accept digs lying down. Koi haq nahi banta har hafte sabki bezzati karte rahe. Kyunki aap mujhe paisa dete ho mai aapki bullshit sunti rahoongi har Friday, Mumbai Mirror quoted the hairdresser as saying. Sapna dared Salman to kick her out of the show, saying she was not someone the star could bully into submission. And to drive home her point, she called him a serial womanbeater before letting off a volley of cuss words, reported the tabloid.

Pamela Anderson, former Australian cricketer Andrew Symonds and sumo wrestler Yamamotoyama have appeared on the show. They stayed in the house for three and seven

days and one day respectively. Earlier, in season two, late Jade Goody - infamous for her racial slurs against Shilpa Shetty on the UKs Big Brother show - had stayed on.

She also took pot shots at Salman, the painter. If I win the show, I shall buy his painting and gift it to him, the tabloid quoted her as saying. Sapna Bhavnanis clientele includes Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif, John Abraham, MS Dhoni. In the introductory episode, she had teased Salman

asking if he knew Katrina Kaif. Double eviction Unlike each week, two contestants will be eliminated this Friday. Gulab Gang leader Sampat Lal, controversial cartoonist Aseem Trivedi, model Karishma Kotak and hairstylist Sapna Bhavnani are nominated.

Today, Diwali is truly a national Canadian celebration. People have travelled from all across the country to be a part of this national celebration. We had a guest list of over 800 people registered to attend the event. I had to request our community organizations to prune their lists, because this hall cannot accommodate all the people. Deepak thanked

Why this book? This story? I first read Midnights Children in the winter of 1982 in Delhi. I distinctly remember talkingabout the wonder of it all with a friend while we walked around Lodhi Gardens. It had anenormous impact on me. It uncannily echoed my own upbringing, and for a novice filmmaker inthe early 80s the book seemed to read like a movie - full of cinematic language and rooted inpopular Indian cinema. The novels fearless dark humour combined with its affection for allhuman foibles stayed with me. Salman and I often talked about working together. One night, over dinner, I asked him who had the rights to Midnights Children. He said he did. I asked to buy them and he sold the option to me for one dollar. It was not premeditated; it was just gut instinct. What is the movie about? It is a coming-of-age story, full of the trials and tribulations of growing up, and of the terrible weight of expectations. What separates it from other similar thematic films is that this coming of age story is not only about a boy but also about his country, both of whom are born at the very same time at a pivotal point in Indian history. Saleems journey as our vulnerable, misguided hero is always intertwined with the struggles of the newly independent India, as it finds its own voice in the world.Art by its very nature is political and I believe that Midnights Children says something important and universal about survival, freedom and hope. Why this movie now, for you? There is a saying luck favours the prepared. The choices that I have embraced in life and the movies that I have made previously have certainly given me the technical and emotional confidence to tackle an epic about my homeland, but in many ways, I felt that I was learning the filmmaking craft all over again. My desire to make this film came from a gut instinct. I knew I wanted to do it but it required a huge amount of chutzpah to then wrap my head around actually filming it. I think that my producing partner David Hamiltons dedication and leadership really did make it possible. Some of the most meaningful decisions in life are based on that indiscernible feeling of just knowing its time. And it was. My core team: design, camera, wardrobe, editing were all available and wildly keen to work on Midnights Children, as was the wonderful ensemble cast. But I think the most vital factor of all is the pure delight and fun of working with Salman, and how profoundly in synch we are about the heart of the story. Salman and I have both made our homes in the Indian Diaspora; I in Canada, he in Britain and America, and we have similar complicated intertwined roots in India. Those shared perspectives and memories, plus his creative generosity and wit, kept me, and the movie, going. Salman once said, about Indian born artists who have emigrated, Our identity is at once plural and partial. Sometimes we feel that we straddle two cultures; at other times, that we fall between two stools. But however ambiguous and shifting the ground may be, it is not an infertile territory for a writer to occupy. Is this film a love letter to India from you? Salman has often said that the book is his love letter to India. I hope the film reflects the same sentiment. The last lines are, The truth has been less glorious than the dream. But we have survived and made our way. And our lives have been, in spite of everything, acts of love. The story, in its detail, becomes universal in its message of love and redemption. How did you and Salman work on the adaptation, and what are the key changes from the book? After Salman sold us the option to the book, he agreed, reluctantly, to write the screenplay. The book is inherently visceral and cinematic; the problem is length. The novel is 533 pages long and first drafts of the script were 260 pages. Early on, at our most important script meeting, Salman and I both brought handwritten lists of the dramatic moments which absolutely had to be preserved. One might spot some karma or magic at work here - our lists matched, in almost every way. The ruthless surgical decisions about cutting had to be Salmans alone: whole swathes of story and characters gone. And then the intricate balance of what to shape, change, or add was our shared task.

MIDNIGHTS CHILDREN - INTERVIEW WITH DIRECTOR DEEPA MEHTA OF TORONTO

most essential of all. This film, more than most, because of its sheer scope was going to need not just my focus but also my stamina. The wisest decision I made. Preparation with the cast is a given. A month before shooting there was an intensive workshop in Mumbai with the actors and me, led by my friend Neelam Choudhry, a theatre director from Chandigarh. This was not a rehearsal of the script; it was work based on the Natya Shastra, a treatise written in India in the 4th century AD about the art of drama, which includes a rasabox or grid of nine essential mental states and emotions: love, repulsion, bravery, cowardice, humour, eroticism, wonderment, compassion, and peace. This intensive work knitted us together as a group and grounded us in the emotional arcs of the film. I dont use shot lists or storyboards; the actor motivates my camera. From the actors I know what the emotional centre of the scene will be and then we shoot it. By now my long time DOP Giles Nuttgens and I have a finely honed shorthand. But the most important preparation (except perhaps for the gym!) was meticulously planning the world of the movie. In Midnights Children we meet four generations over five very distinct time periods; there are three wars, 64 locations, and 127 speaking parts, plus animals, babies, snakes, cockroaches [Well, that didnt really work out. Our cockroach wrangler failed]. And everything in the world of the film had to be shipped or found or designed or built in Sri Lanka. My closest ally and second brain/eyes is always my brother Dilip, who is responsible for the entire look of this film. He fought for authenticity in every aspect of the movie: visuals, historical period, class, accents, religious backgroundsno detail too large (wars, helicopters, parades) or too small (ants, lizards) to escape his scrutiny. There is no one else whom I fully trust who knows the historical landscape and the real India, and who could create all of this flawlessly and with such a passion for accuracy and for beauty.

Painful cuts continued to be made right up to shooting and also in the cutting room. We preserved and protected the central thread of the story and tied it always to Saleem. The biggest changes from the book are that Saleem and Shiva are now inextricably linked throughout and Shiva is given greater prominence; the story builds towards the SaleemParvatiShiva triangle. Recalibrating and reshaping the last scenes during the Emergency and afterwards are important shifts, but it would ruin the ending to say anything further about those specific changes. We also deleted the overall narrator (from the novel), and in its place Salman wrote a spare, precise, evocative voiceover, which he performs wonderfully. How did you prepare for Midnights Children? I have the terrible reputation of spending my down time not moving unless I have to. Devyani, my daughter, has often said that her moms favourite exercise is turning the page of a book! Well, a slight exaggeration but somewhat true. All that changed about six months after Midnights Children was green lit. I found an empathic, encouraging trainer and went to the gym every day (reluctantly!) before production. I felt I needed every bit of stamina and awareness, and this physical preparation was perhaps the

Jab Tak Hai Jaan Movie Preview Aiyyaa directors next a teenage love story
Though Marathi director Sachin Kundalkars Bollywood debut Aiyyaa (2012) didnt live up to the hype, he is still motivated to try his luck in Hindi cinema. After making a bold woman-centric film, the final stage of scripting, he says. Aiyyaa had Rani Mukerji as the protagonist, paired with south Indian actor Prithviraj Sukumaran. The film, which showed a man as an object of desire, created a lot of buzz among the audience and critics before it hit the theatres. However, it did not live up to that buzz and lost steam at the box-office. But the director is still keen on doing films with Rani in the future. There is no denying that Rani is a great actor, so I really want to work with her again. We have just finished working together so I need a couple of months to decide on the next film with her, he says.

I dont know, responded the other. Ill ask him. So he climbed out of the hole and went to his boss. Why are we digging in the hot sun and youre standing in the shade? Intelligence, the boss said. What do you mean, intelligence? The boss said, Well, Ill show you. Ill put my hand on this tree and I want you to hit it with your fist as hard as you can. The ditch digger took a mighty swing and tried to hit the boss hand. The boss removed his hand and the ditch digger hit the tree. The boss said, Thats intelligence! The ditch digger went back to his hole. His friend asked, What did he say? He said we are down here because of intelligence. Whats intelligence? said the friend.

An engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician are trying to set up a fenced-in area for some sheep, but they have a limited amount of building material. The engineer gets up first and makes a square fence with the material, reasoning that its a pretty good working solution. No no, says the physicist, theres a better way. He takes the fence and makes a circular pen, showing how

it encompasses the maximum possible space with the given material. Then the mathematician speaks up: No, no, theres an even better way. To the others amusement he proceeds to construct a little tiny fence around himself, then declares: I define myself to be on the outside. A very large mathematical convention was held in Las Vegas. The conventioneers filled two hotels, each with an infinite number of rooms. The hotels were across the street from each other and were owned by brothers. One evening, while everyone was out at a bar-b-que, one of the hotels burned to the ground. The brothers got together and worked out a plan. In the remaining hotel, they moved all guests to twice their room number -- room 101 moved to 202, room 1234 moved to room 2468, etc. Then all the odd number rooms were empty, and there were an infinite number of odd rooms. So the guests from the other hotel moved into them. Hello, this is probably 4389012, yes, the house of the famous statistician.

About an hour into the flight, the pilot announced that they had lost an engine, but dont worry, there are three left. However, instead of 5 hours it would take 7 hours to get to New York. A little later, he announced that a second engine failed, and they still had two left, but it would take 10 hours to get to New York. Somewhat later, the pilot again came on the intercom and announced that a third engine had died. Never fear, he announced, because the plane could fly on a single engine. However, it would now take 18 hours to get to new York. At this point, one statistician turned to the other and said, Gee, I hope we dont lose that last engine, or well be up here forever! A mathematician and a nonmathematician are sitting in an airport hall waiting for their flight to go. The non has terrible flight panic.

Why was dropped ?

Rana was a highly anticipated project which was launched with Superstar Rajinikanth before he fell ill. The project was later dropped much to the disappointment of crores of Rajini fans. Deepika Padukone was also looking for the dream launch into the Tamil industry with Rana. Director K.S.Ravikumar who was supposed to direct this film, states that the reason for Rana being dropped was purely out of circumstances due to Rajinis health scare. He doesnt feel sad about this and maintains that he enjoys a healthy friendship with the Superstar. The two meet regularly as always.
