Narendra Modi basically calls Arvind Kejriwal a Pakistani Agent

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 02:31 AM PDT

"Lal Bahadur Shastri said 'Jai Jawan Jai Kisan', but Congress' slogan today is 'Mar Jawan, Mar Kisan'."
He did not spare Kejriwal, who on Tuesday challenged him to a political debate in Varanasi after announcing he will fight against him in the holy town.
"There are three people who are being praised in Pakistan - they are three AKs - AK 47, AK Antony and AK 49."
"This AK-49 in his website shows Kashmir as a part of Pakistan. And his close aide wants referendum in Kashmir," he added.
Modi also targetted Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi over his comment Congress is a thought saying the Congress itself is under pondering.
"Dear Shehzada, this country has reached the state it is in because of your thoughts," Modi hit out at Rahul.

ACT Broadband Bangalore Reviews

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 12:52 AM PDT

Hello Readers,

My name is Vivek Sinha Anurag and i am going to post some "great" work shown by Act Broadband.

I applied for ACT Broadband 5 Mbps plan [its having cap value of 35GB after that speed will reduce to 256 kbps] by calling their customer care on 16th Aug 2011. I was surprised to see their lightening fast response as the representative came to my doorstep the very next day and on 17th Aug 2011 Mr Ashitt O.S. collected the money and documents and told me that withing 5 days i will get my connection and i even got sms confirmation that my request no is 142263.

Now the real story started. Even after 6 days no one ever bothered to check my request so i called customer care [ 080-42840000] to remind them and i was told that i will get it withing next 2 days. I waited for next 2 days and called them again.

I was surprised to learn a new technical term from them that they are "Uploading network" hence its taking time and soon i will get my connection. Since my work was getting affected because of their delay i applied for a BSNL connection too. Now today is 5th September and i am still waiting for the connection and to my surprise i got the BSNL broadband last week.

I tried escalating this matter and asked the customer care for any high level contact and they said that i need to mail helpdesk@acttv.in. I emailed them but i got no response.

Please note some points regarding ACT broadband before applying ACT broadband
1. They dont have nodal officer/appellate authority [against TRAI rules and i have already escalated this matter to TRAI officials with the help of pgportal.gov.in]
2. They have a customer base of 2500 users in bangalore and they are not able to manage even this small number.
3. They DO NOT PROVIDE STATIC IP [even if they claim to do so]
4. Their customer care service is useless. All you will losse is your balance by talking to them
5. They can "Upload network" [You can imagine the understanding capability of their technicians]
6. They are fast in collecting money but lazy in delivering service

Final conclusion: To be on safe side stay away from them else you will suffer like me. Morning shows the day and even before using their service i am suffering. Don't know what will happen when i get the connection and i face any problem that time.

Using portable CD/DVD players during travel

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 12:43 AM PDT

Hi,

 

I have heard of portable DVD/CD players, but never used one. Right now I have got one at home, but it is not portable. I have to plug in the white, red and yellow cables into the back of my TV to watch CD/DVD on my TV. Is there any portable DVD/CD player that can play both audio CD/DVD and video CD/DVD as well. I want to use this portable player to watch movies on CD/DVD and listen to music on CD/DVD. I guess they run on batteries. Thanks.

Lok Sabha 2014 Elections in Gurgaon

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 12:31 AM PDT

AAP has already confirmed that Yogendra Yadav would be their candidate from Gurgaon. 

Current MP is Rao Inderjit Singh who won on a Congress seat but moved to BJP few months ago. 

 

And there are now reports that Congress might field Sharmila Tagore as their candidate from Gurgaon. 

 

Congress may field Sharmila Tagore from Gurgaon — www.financialexpress.com (Pataudi is actually part of Gurgaon so she is not really an outsider)

 

I am guessing AAP has a good shot in Gurgaon if this is what the situation looks like. Though dad says that Rao has a very good reputation in the rural parts of Gurgaon. Hopefully the urban Gurgaon would vote for a smarter choice this time around!

Transcendence

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 11:42 PM PDT

 

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can...but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will's thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.

Strange. I thought I had started a thread for this.

Hannibal is an American thriller television series developed by Bryan Fuller for NBC. The series is based on characters and elements appearing in the novel Red Dragon by Thomas Harris and focuses on the budding relationship between FBI special investigator Will Graham and Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a forensic psychiatrist destined to become Graham's most cunning enemy. The series received a 13 episode order for its first season and, unlike most U.S. network shows, any future seasons will also feature 13 episodes. David Slade executive produced and directed the pilot. The series premiered on NBC on April 4, 2013. In response to the Boston Marathon bombings and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, NBC has pulled the fourth episode from its lineup at Fuller's request, going straight to the fifth episode, moving the season finale from June 27, 2013 to June 20, 2013.

X Men: Days of Future Past

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 11:17 PM PDT

Deadline reports that Fox made quick work of replacing their vacant director's chair and will likely be able to keep their July 18th, 2014 release date as a result. Fans should be familiar with Singer's work as he wrote and directed both 2000′s X-Men and 2003′s follow-up, X2. He also turned in the script for Vaughn's X-Men: First Class along with an ensemble of other writers, including Vaughn. We also got confirmation of the title from Singer recently. It follows the 1980s' comic storyline written by Chris Claremont that alternates between a present day battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline where an assassination of a government official has led to Sentinels roaming the land and mutants held prisoner in internment camps.
The cast from the original film is expected to return, including Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.

Samrat & Co.

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 10:32 PM PDT


 

A young, beautiful and rich girl, Dimpy Singh (Madalsa Sharma), approaches Samrat Tilakdhari (Rajeev Khandelwal), a private investigator, with a strange case. Their garden got ruined for reasons that appear natural but are not known; leading horticulturists have examined the fading plants but they have not been able to identify the probable reason. Further, her father's favorite horse died; once again the reason for the pre-mature death remains a mystery. That's not the end; Dimpy's father Mahendra Pratap Singh (Girish Karnad), otherwise a very strong and balanced man, has been experiencing deteriorating health. All these aspects when combined makes the case sound weird and that grabs the attention of Samrat.

Samrat along with his assistant friend, Chakradhar Pandey (Gopal Datt), visits the huge estate of Mahendra Pratap Singh. As he starts investigating, he discovers lots of mysterious facts. The story progresses when a murder takes place in the house, which leads to a series of events, complicating things for Samrat. Every character around seems to be hiding something. How will Samrat unfold the mysteries? Will there be more mysteries while he is investigating? Will the case be solved?
