How to safely use an Induction Cooker?

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 02:42 AM PST

Any induction stove users here? Mom is planning to start using it as an alternative because of the scarcity of the cooking gas cylinders in the city. 

 

I have read the manual. I am still confused. I basically got this:

 

I have to use utensils that are designed for induction cooking. 

I have to ensure that the cooker is at a flat surface with nothing hindering the airflow around it. 

I have to place the utensil at the center of the stove ensuring that the circle region is optimally covered. 

I have to place the utensil first and then start the induction cooker. 

 

Can anyone give me a small guide on what else to take care? Would it blast like a microwave if not used properly? :D

How to check if BSNL evdo will give me speeds at my place before i purchase it?

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 02:18 AM PST

I am from ahmedabad, Vatva. I was using local SpidiGo internet from past 2 years. a month back my spidigo guys told me that there is some problem with their local AP and hence i will be refunded my money. I applied for tikona internet provider, the guy from tikona did show up today but told me that connection at my place is not possible since he can not get a LOS to his AP.

Reliance Wimax is to expensive. Airtel/Tata broadband are not available at my place. so now the only players who remain are Dongles and data cards. I have used unlimted broadband plans from past 4 years, and hence would like to continue using unlimted in future as well. but when i did some research for the datacard/dongle plans by various providers and came to know that most of the so called "Unlimted plans" by tata photon, reliance netconnect +, and MTS blaze only provide good speeds untill few GBs a month.

Now the only thing that remain is BSNL evdo Which according to my research actually provides unlimited internet at 750 a month. but since it is BSNL obviously it was hard for me to gather information regarding how to get the connection and things.

Now the only concern i have is that, i know that BSNL evdo provides only 144kbps where it doesnt have the "high speed" signals. I am worried that if i buy a new evdo , in my home i may not get the speed.

So my question is : How do i check bsnl evdo speed in my house, without having an evdo ? I dont have any friends who use evdo. however i do have freinds who have BSNL sims. so can i check BSNL sim signal such as if its HSPA or EDGE ? does that matter?


Thanks for reading

RELIANCE BROADBAND NOT WORKING – STRANGE PROBLEM.

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 02:10 AM PST

Dear All,

For the last 7 days my Reliance Broadband Connection is switched off from 7 PM to 10 AM next day. I have lodged several complains to the Reliance Toll Free Customer Care number and email them, but they fail to solve the problem or at least call and say where the problem is. I am from Central Kolkata, West Bengal.

Interesting part is that the ADSL Link is present in the modem and I get the message "Acquiring network address" but then I get the final message "The connection has limited or no connectivity" in Windows XP Home Edition. The same connection in the same computer will start to work after 10 AM every day and stop working at around 7 PM. It seems someone is switching any ISP equipment ON and OFF every day.

Can anyone say what can be the probable cause of such an issue where the ADSL link is not down but the computer fails to get an IP address and how to get it solved since Reliance customer care cannot help. It seems Reliance has one of the worst customer care at present.

Thanks in advance.

Tikona Broadband User Experiences

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 01:17 AM PST

Thought I would start another thread for people who have actually used this service to describe their experience.

They have started advertising quite heavily in Bombay and their plans seem pretty decent. Their 600kbps UL plan would be excellent for me.

I really like the way they have bill limits for their limited plans as well. That shows they understand consumer concerns about enormous bills and have designed their plans to allay them.

So how good is their service? Any down time? How quickly do they respond to complaints? Really any information from people who have used Tikona would be appreciated.

Call for end to caste base quotas!

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 01:07 AM PST

Congress leader Janardan Dwivedi calls for end to caste-based quotas — timesofindia.indiatimes.com

This guy is looking at a political suicide :tongue:
 

In 1950, the Constitution of India provided for caste-based reservation in government jobs, but only for a decade. The idea was to then observe what social progress it had delivered and re-evaluate what measures were needed for further progress. The idea was never to perpetuate a tyranny of inherited identities. Unfortunately, as caste-based reservation degenerated into a crass tool of electoral instrumentalism, it became anathema for political parties to debate it honestly. Congress general secretary Janardan Dwivedi has made a radical statement in this context, that it is time to dismantle caste-based quotas. Reservation should now be based on people's economic condition.
Dwivedi correctly points out that the prevailing formula does not benefit really needy persons, with all its privileges corralled by a creamy layer instead. Even more boldly, he urges Rahul Gandhi to take the lead in dismantling this dysfunctional system, which may have bolstered the boundaries of caste more than the ramparts of equality. Of course his party politics have hitherto been tied to quota expansionism, including by pushing for caste-based reservations in job promotions. Dwivedi's point is that when UPA-III is being talked about, Rahul should show Congress has the courage to replace failed, illusory policies with future-oriented instruments of justice.

We have seen Besharam. We have seen Mental. We have seen Gunday. Now we have Bewakoofiyaan. Cannot wait for G****/C****** now. 
 

Release Date: 14th March 2014
Starring: Rishi Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana & Sonam Kapoor
Directed by: Nupur Asthana
Produced by: Aditya Chopra
Written by: Habib Faisal
Music by: Raghu Dixit
Lyrics by: Anvita Dutt

 

Love mein thhoda stupid!
Mohit is a marketing whiz kid vying for a step up the career ladder...
Mayera - a financial brain with a penchant for shoes...
They're a young middle-class corporate couple that's ambitious and likes the good life too.
They work hard, they party hard.
They're also passionately in love with each other.
Their belief: You can live on love and fresh air...
Their obstacle: Mayera's wilful bureaucratic father V.K Sehgal.
The obstinate old man believes that only a rich man can bring Mayera happiness and a mid-level executive like Mohit simply isn't good enough!
Exactly how fragile are relationships in these times where consumer lifestyles dictate their very nature and intensity? Who gets the last laugh when recession strikes and the lack of money tests love... credit-card-junkies private-sector Mohit-Mayera; or safe-playing sarkari, V.K. Sehgal?
BEWAKOOFIYAAN, a contemporary slice of life story which turns set notions about relationships on their head is directed by Nupur Asthana and has been written by the versatile writer/director Habib Faisal. The film is produced by Aditya Chopra. This is Nupur's second film for the Studio, after her successful directorial debut last year with Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge, under the Y-Films banner.
The film stars Rishi Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana and Sonam Kapoor in lead roles.

Arvind Kejriwal to reopen Commonwealth Games scam files-India News - IBNLive Mobile

 

 

 

Kejriwal has said that he would be investigating the 2010 Commonwealth Games scam, which is one amongst the many scams that took place under the Congress regime.
Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP government is ruling Delhi with the outside support of eight Congress MLAs. Kejriwal, however, said that he would go ahead with the investigation unfazed by the fact that the Congress could pull out of the government, thus landing AAP in a minority.

The Tomorrow People

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 12:24 AM PST

Stephen Jameson stands at the crossroads between the world we know and the shifting world of the future. Up until a year ago, Stephen was a "normal" teenager — until he began hearing voices and teleporting in his sleep, never knowing where he might wake up. Now, Stephen's issues have gone far beyond the usual teenage angst, and he is beginning to question his sanity. In desperation, Stephen decides to listen to one of the voices in his head, and it leads him to his first encounter with the Tomorrow People — John, Cara and Russell — a genetically advanced race with the abilities of telekinesis, teleportation and telepathic communication.

The Tomorrow People are being hunted down by a paramilitary group of scientists known as Ultra. Led by Dr. Jedikiah Price, Ultra sees the Tomorrow People as a very real existential threat from a rival species, and the outcast group has been forced to hide out in an abandoned subway station just beneath the surface of the human world. Trading in secrets, Jedikiah offers Stephen the chance for a normal life with his family and best friend, Astrid, if he will help in the struggle to isolate and eradicate the Tomorrow People. On the other hand, Cara, John and Russell offer Stephen a different type of family and a home where he truly belongs. Unwilling to turn his back on humanity or the world of the Tomorrow People, Stephen sets out on his own path — a journey that could take him into the shadowy past to uncover the truth about his father's mysterious disappearance, or into an unknown future with THE TOMORROW PEOPLE.

TATA DOCOMO postpaid net connection with rs 350 plan not working

Posted: 06 Feb 2014 12:05 AM PST

This is complaint..
Its been a month since I started using TATAT DOCOMO postpaid connection with rs 350 plan, which promises me 1GB 3G internet + 2G unlimited internet. But as soon I took the connection I realised that TATA DOCOMO internet connets once, stays on for 30 minutes and after that disconnects. It doesnt connect back for the entire day(How many ever times you try). The next day I either have to switch off/on or Remove/Reinsert my SIM to connect the internet back again. I have raised several complaints with Tata Docmo Customer Care regarding this. so Keep turning off/on the data to reconnect back and occasionally try switch off/on also". I am tired of turning off/on my data connection on my Samsung Galaxy Mobile. My question is when TATA DOCOMO can't provide the service promised, why should I pay their postpaid bill? I feel cheated by this geasture of TATA DOCOMO. Please provide me valuable suggestion to file a Consumer Complaint regarding the same.

But no any improvement..
