<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<i><b> "You are what you choose to be" - She: Ekla Cholo Re</b></i><br />
<br />
Who knows what life preserves for us? A pocket novel about a story of a Lonely Heart, Kusum from Kolkata in the 90's. Living in a hypocritical society which has many loops that we need to fill up, remind us, living in the Stone Age. Shame to such society where biological instincts criticized as sin.<br />
<br />
Do not judge a book with it's no. of pages. Writers, Santosh Avvannavar, and Dr. Shayan Haq both worked hard to give a shape to the story. Carefully written, simple language and thought provoking. Read the book within few minutes but it whelms me to think about the plot again and again. Broke me, what a person will do in a realistic situation alike?<br />
<br />
The unspeakable truth that twisted our mind for the centuries. Will India change? Will our society justify things logical rather blinded by old faiths? We are a new generation and if we don't start making changes perhaps the society will never stop its snail walk.<br />
<br />
I suggest, buy and read the book. It worth reading new thoughts to grow up with.<br />
<br />
Always love!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last weekend I was lucky that I read Aryan Sarath's new anthology of six stories that touched my heart. "Encircled and Other Stories" is a book where I got a glimpse of the modern diabolical society. To my utter experience about the time, crimes are committing every minute. Aryan did a careful job by highlighting some of them happening in every city. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The truth is those stories are happening and Sarath able to put them into words and express his mind. When I was reading his stories I felt how deeply he thought about the characters and the plots. I like stories having emotional human touch. I think, it's very hard to express our mind, <i>many writers write but very few can express their emotions. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I respect Sarath's stories, "<i>Bhavna - An Untold Story", "50:50 Love Story", "I just ruined your life" </i>etc. His words are like the phoenix, long-lived with reality. It's a promising work and Sarath is a professional writer there is no doubt about it. </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Everything has an impact in our life. Especially daily work controls our behavior and patience. In December 2014, when I left my job I had two offer letters in my hand but when I resigned and went to join the new companies, in both places accidentally they were suffering from sudden recession and canceled their recruiting lists. I did not have the stomach to digest that disaster. The irony is I became frustrated because I was jobless, friendless and I was unable to tell the same truth to my parents.<br />
<br />
No matter what it was the time I suffered a lot of things that I lost. I initially thought it will not have an impact on my life and soon I will get a new job. Alas! I tried three months given dozens of interviews but I did not get my profile back. I got jobs which were less paid than earlier and not related to the field I belong. At the same time, my parents were come to visit me and came to know that my situation is tight. What should I explain them? I was unable to get into a calculation. After a week, my parents left and they told me that ask if any help I require.<br />
<br />
Six months past I was totally banished into my exile. My bank accounts were almost empty. I had some money left to buy the tickets back to my native. The recession had such a delicate impact in my life that I lost my friends, love, and healthy food habits too. In the tension of survival, I become unfit and literally paralyzed.<br />
<br />
What should I do now? Still I have no job and giving further interviews which become a nightmare of rejection. In between one of my friends asked me to send my CV if possible, he will request a position to the HR at his current company that he is working. I sent my CV and given the telephonic round of interview, the HR told me that he was interested in my profile. I saw a positive hope. But at the end HR had mentioned that recently they recruited content marketing team and there is no vacancy in their company right now. But soon if anyone left the team then he will remember my name. He asked me to keep in touch and contact him after two months. Well, two months after when I called him, first he was unable to recognize my name, that's okay he may have been forgotten in two months, so I reminded him. He told me, he is sorry that nobody left the company in between and he cannot help me.<br />
<br />
So all hope lost. Still I cannot believe that I am jobless!!! Now it's more than a year which does not have any good impact in my life.<br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br />
<br />
Music is a true friend in our life, everyone agrees with this point. No matter what music, in what tune, what language and what instruments... simply everybody loves music. Our tastes and listening behaviour is different but they are music at the end.<br />
<br />
In my family we have the variety of music lovers, one is the true music lover, one is Bengali music lover, one is Hard Rock music lover, one is an instrument music lover and my mother she loves singing herself.<br />
<br />
These are only some varieties but like so many genres of music we are all in like like genres and nodes. Single harmony of rhythm flowing everywhere. Some of my friends are core Bollywood music lover, some of them are Metal music. Sometimes at the classroom, park and playground the debates which genre is best. But is that they truly likes music, I felt no. A true music lover should not be judged by a particular type of genre listener they should listen to all types and find out what is his taste in listening. Who know you will fall in love with an alien music like Arab, Spanish or Nordic but maybe you won't understand it's lyrics.<br />
<br />
You may be surprised to hear that if you don't understand the language then how you can like such music. But I met many music lovers who actually do love music they don't understand it's lyric. Mr. Kulkarni, a librarian listen to Pina Bausch and Rammstein but he is a true-hearted Indian. Mrs. Joti, fashion designer listen to harp instruments and she often plays the piano. Sidhartha Roy, an M.B.A student listen to African witchcraft songs and he finds the truth through it.<br />
<br />
I respect people and their individual taste in music. I don't judge what they are listening but often people debate our Hindi songs are best, our Bengali songs are great, Our Tamil songs are top. My question is, "what is our and their in music? Music has no boundaries, music is a true love, the true friend of us. We should not mark which one is good and which one is not. Let it leave to the listener and their choice.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
All music are respected and there are good music and bad music too. But a true listener chooses his/her music as per their true taste in music. I love music that helps me wake up in the morning, then give me the energy to start my day. I love music that helps me to reduce city noise and keep in myself during the walk in the street. I love music which I can share with friends and they love them too. I feel music with love, sadness, smile and tears. The ultimate happiness comes in our life when we can feel true nodes of music and relate them. Every music has an enchantment and ecstasy all we need to choose what we do like? <br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Fantastico is a word I highly impressed about today's online Smartphone games. Online games had been developed long back in early 90's. I can remember games like Poker, Casino, Chess, and many more. But there was less virtual space at that time and the real fantastico gaming experience was waiting to take shape.<br />
<br />
In the year 2000, I got games like Anarchy Online, a fantastico roleplay game. Then Rune Scape by Jagex, Dark Age of Camelot, Ultima Online 2 and many notable ones. There was a huge demand PSP devices and hand hold small gaming devices till 2005. Because we did not have Smartphones that time.<br />
<br />
Then I can remember in back to 2002 Final Fantasy XI by Square-Enix was the first fantastico game experience connected to the different platforms using a single set of servers. At the same time, Sony released PlayStation 2 console worldwide which connects through Wifi high-speed internet servers to play real time online game any part of the world.<br />
<br />
My first gaming console was not that great. I had a local gamepad and which does not support most of those games.<br />
<br />
Ubisoft developed many fantastico User interface (UI) designed online games. I can still have in my mind the game called Shadowbane. Then there came XBox360 devices and high graphics UI games.<br />
All those games are more than valuable collection for any game lover. Now one thing in online game lags is when people get a new interesting game they stop playing the old games. Because time does not allow us to play constantly many games at the same time.<br />
<br />
2010, the beginning of the golden age of today's online gaming market. Today I guess no one buys handhold small PSP devices anymore. Smartphones and tablets are today's ultimate online gaming weapons. The day I purchased my first tablet I had no idea that I bought an addictive gaming gadget. When I downloaded games like Angry Bird, Subway Surfers, Temple Run, Candy Crush Saga and more.. Yes, I was under my control.<br />
<br />
<br />
Fantastico Online Smartphone Games:<br />
<br />
Then I found PvP gaming experience like Injustice, Contest of Champions, Future Fights and WWE Immortals. I just cannot say how much these games mean to the players online. Isn't that a fantastico experience of gaming?<br />
<br />
The epic battles, story games are most likely a living comics book reading experience and when there are live quests, alliance gaming features, leadership and help online friends in the game. All these experiences are real time fantastico experience. I really like play contests together with my friends in a game, earn points for them, help them to complete a quest, chat with all team members, invite them for a private meeting, plan game strategy and win the battle realms.<br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
21st June of the last year it was the first International Day of Yoga - IDY. The day our respected Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi announced Yoga classes will be compulsory at every school, colleges and Indian Government offices. So our boss becomes very active on that commencement and we were fortunate to attend peppy Yoga classes for two weeks at our office.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiulRKnG8SrD8-3pUhaNvmO-Sr1LtDkiqTKxNII64nJbr5CtNAp4dAn8frtu6iOPJMSebhj7TkUlaUsjm17bTIDenvRFeuUttU2LPdiqR6gmqY42rpjvvYN8b3rmAS0cjvNXT-yh8wn-yM/s1600/347182-international-yoga-day-logo-square.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiulRKnG8SrD8-3pUhaNvmO-Sr1LtDkiqTKxNII64nJbr5CtNAp4dAn8frtu6iOPJMSebhj7TkUlaUsjm17bTIDenvRFeuUttU2LPdiqR6gmqY42rpjvvYN8b3rmAS0cjvNXT-yh8wn-yM/s320/347182-international-yoga-day-logo-square.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
First two days we had 70 employees who attended the yoga class. In the third day, It was surprisingly decreased and only 41 people were there. When we back to our desk after 1-hour class they said, you are still young and we are older now. They got pains in every limbs and bone joints. I told them I found the similar issue too but I never quite a program that once I start. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
In the next one week our number became 27 people and in the next week, it was 20 members who successfully completed the 12 days Yoga program. I am thankful to my boss who had this great vision to introduce us with the peppy yoga program. We also lucky that we met Mr. Govind as our yoga guru, who is a mystic and spiritual guide to us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The closing day of the yoga class Mr. Govind invited all the 70 employees for an inspirational speech. Almost all my colleagues were present at that day. Mr. Govind in his notable voice explained the whole truth about his experience with Yoga. He is one of the top contestants in the National Yoga Championship for several times. He never won the medals but he never lost his hope in yoga. Even he mentioned that how yoga helped him winning over his will power. He also told us that body pain in a primary issue in yoga because body pain does not stay for regular practicing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Once we start doing yoga it helps us reducing our mental complexity and focus the spiritual existence. Every yoga includes proper breathing practice and rest before starting a new exercise. The lesson we learned was eye-opening. We went through many issues regularly in our everyday life but the darkness we create to our health is poisonous. We should take care of our health first, the proverb says it quite right "Health is wealth". This is not only a peppy lesson but it's a good habit and we should follow. I promised in my heart, no matter what I will practice yoga every day as a routine. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Seven months past still I am trying to practice yoga regularly. To be honest because of few individual issues, trips, and festivals I cannot able to keep my word. But whenever I get time I make it happen. Even sometimes I think of taking yoga as my primary interest in life and see if I can make a difference in living. </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
I am not a tech smart person, I know how to search google or write my blogs which one of my friends guided me. Navigation apps are one my favourite apps, which help me reach unknown places. It was my driver Somu Pandey, a young man of 22 he was the first person in my knowledge who I saw every time he connects to the Google Maps Navigation app in his smartphone.<br />
<br />
One day I asked, "Somu, what is that? You should not look at your mobile phone while driving!!"<br />
<br />
Somu, said, "Babu, you don't know about Google Maps it's a helpful navigation tool."<br />
<br />
I was surprised and asked him to show me what exactly he is talking about. We almost at home. I asked him to show me the app once reach home. Somu stopped the car at our parking garage and showed his phone to me. He selected 3G data and a Google developed application name "Maps".<br />
<br />
I said, "Ok it's a map of our city. Very good Somu, you are a skilled educated driver. You can read maps as well." I smiled and was just going to leave.<br />
<br />
Somu said, "Wait Babu, let me show you how it works!" He was desperate to show what more he knows about this app.<br />
<br />
I smiled and told him, "I am busy now. I have important works to do. Thanks Somu, you go and take some rest."<br />
<br />
Somu indeed a good driver, he said "Namaste" and left that evening.<br />
<br />
The same night after dinner I was going to bed and thought about that Navigation app. I took my phone and downloaded the app. I wanted to see what else Somu was trying to show me in that app.<br />
<br />
Once the download completed I opened the app and connected internet phone data. I found it showing my phone's position in the map. I said, "Wow". Then I searched some other locations like, Airport, Rail Station, Hospital, Bank and Office. All the places the app was shown exact the same I knew those places.<br />
<br />
Next day when I was in the car, I was looking at my meeting schedules. Suddenly I remember Maps app. I searched the address I was going. To my great surprise, the app started navigating me each and every direction to the address. I was laughing very loud with a big surprising smile in my bald face.<br />
<br />
Somu was driving, "What happened Babu?"<br />
<br />
I said, "Somu you are brilliant, I downloaded the Navigation app you showed me last time and now I understand why you always use this app." Somu was very happy listening to that. Then I reached the place and went for the meeting. It was a good day.<br />
<br />
Evening when I was coming back, I asked Somu, "Somu, what is your education?" Somu said, "Babu, I passed high school." I told him, "Let me see, you deserve better."<br />
<br />
It was an eye-opening to me that maybe I am not seeing how the technology is changing our world. Thanks Somu for the lesson. If I can do something better for you I will be glad.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Finally, I got my hands on the latest novel "The Bestseller She Wrote" by Ravi Subramanian. To my utter surprise, the book is better than I thought. As a self-published writer, I want to say, "Subramanian, you got guts... to write something very honest modern city culture in this novel." </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last Friday evening when I came back to home and found the book at my desk. 'Tis the first look, I found it's heavy and I cut the seal and turned the last page, my god 392 pages!!! "When I'll read this?" I am a slow reader but if I find interest... then I read as fast as a jet. So I started reading the first chapter. Then till night 2:30 AM and today (Sunday) I finished the book. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First of all to the readers who do not know who is Ravi Subramanian? I just want to share you a glance, Ravi was an IIM Bangalore student and he is from Ludhiana, Punjab. He himself a banker and wrote the award-winning trilogy The Incredible Banker, The Bankster and Bankerupt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is my very personal opinion about this novel... no matter what Subramanian could not escape his banking boundary in all his novels. Possibly I am wrong but I found, "Subramanian wrote an erotic fantasy which maybe the food for the thought of his own." </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In short synopsis, Aditya, who is a bestseller writer and a bank employee found interest in Shreya, a young girl with ambition. Aditya is a family guy and he loves his wife Maya. But Aditya found his secret vigorous interest in Shreya. He recruited her in the bank and started date. He came to know Shreya wants to be a bestseller writer like Aditya. He promised to help her in her book. As the story developed further to realize a part of the novel by substance Shreya asked Aditya to have adulterous love with her. And the climax began here when Aditya found his double role hiding the facts in front of his wife Maya and little son Aryan.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The moral of the story, how Shreya played the relationship game, used Aditya's talent and then kicked his ass. 'Tis a selfish love story of disloyalty and betrayal. </div>

<br />
The first part of the novel I actually enjoyed reading. It was indeed amusing and the way Shreya and Aditya met and found their interest in each other that is truly exceptional. Then Maya's suffering from rare disease, she came to know the secret love between Aditya and Shreya and as a typical Indian wife, her role quite justified. Then the weakness in love affair found in Aditya's character, he found helpless at the end. He was so lost in his world of fantasy. But then the real person behind all this had been found. You need to read the full novel to know who made Aditya's life miserable, this is the suspense. Even the side characters like Sanjay, Diana, Melwinare etc. portrayed very carefully by the writer. A nice novel worth reading.<br />

In 2008, I cleared my CAT exam I was looking for a PGDM degree and I was not sure where to get admission. In Amity, I took my admission.<br />
<br />
In Amity Lucknow campus every candidate got selected based on CAT and Internal exam conducted by Amity itself. After that, the merit list they prepare and accordingly they call candidates for the f2f interview.<br />
<br />
I had Communication Development, Behaviour Science, Research Methodology, and German Language apart from my regular MBA subjects. The course is designed as per the professional standard.<br />
<br />
The faculty was professional. They help in understanding each subject carefully. They help in developing presentation skills, and sometimes they give good reference to get internships. <br />
<br />
I had my internship in Sahara India Pariwar, Corporate Communication Department as a Market Researcher. They paid 7.5K at the end of eight weeks internship with certification.<br />
<br />
I passed out in 2009-10 and it was the time when in the private sector was suffering from financial recession crisis moment which was affected campus placement. But in that time Amity did a wonderful job, they brought 4 industrial giants like Accenture, Wipro, Times Now, Hindustan Times for the placement. <br />
<br />
In every winter season, a cultural festival organised in Amity Lucknow Malhore Campus by the management. The festival name is SAMANVAY meaning "Something which is equally applicable to all."<br />
<br />
This stage gave endless opportunity to showcase cultural activity to all students.<br />
<br />
In my course, there were no labs. I had weekly presentations at the stage in our classroom. Our exam system was semester based. Papers were split into two parts. Internal assessment and external assessment. Each paper 60 marks for external and 40 for internal, both papers to clear to clear a subject and get the score.<br />
<br />
Fee structure in Amity is expensive than government MBA colleges. In my course, I had four semesters and each semester costs 96K. Apart from that, there were other fees like the security deposit and hostel fees. <br />
<br />
Hostel facility was very good. They provided me a shared room with a partner. Each room member gets a table, chair, cupboard, bed, and mattress. 24/7 room cleaning service, purified water, generator back up and separate toilet for every six students.<br />
<br />
Mess food was good and hygienic. Pure 100% veg meals every day. Mess fees are not included in hostel fee. So you need to pay every month to get the mess food.<br />
<br />
I did not have any scholarship availed from Amity University. I am not sure about it.<br />
<br />
Education loan facility offered by most of the banks. I had loans from PNB.<br />
<br />
Friendship starts at Amity. Fun moments in hostel parties every weekend. There were the gym, table tennis, volleyball, cricket tournaments, dance, debate and singing competition too.<br />
<br />
I never got any reference from my alumni network and senior students of Amity. But interaction opportunities are there and many time they helped junior students in getting placed or searching internship.<br />
<br />
Amity Lucknow Campus was in construction at the time when I was there. The main issue I found that between Amity Noida and Lucknow campus there is a sky and earth difference in getting interview opportunities in good companies after the course end. But hope one day Amity Lucknow campus become better.<br />

Dear Santa, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br />I am now 28 and can't stop believing in you. The year I come to know you for the first time... which year I don't remember! My family lives in the east part of India. I grew up in a very small city where we were not knowing what is Christmas until I grew up young and lived in the big city. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There were many years we do not celebrate Christmas, but we use to read newspapers and see the picture of you in the cherry red outfit. You look nice like a grandfather figure. We never received any gifts in hands from you, but your's sweet smile inside your long white beard and moustache made us smile for the Christmas day. In some of the Christmas, we put ourselves some effort to dress like you. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, what I did this year? I went to a primary school and buy five rupees cakes to every pupil. I also have Whatsapp application in my phone. I wished all my contacts and got almost 30 wish in return. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What can be more happiness than that?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Always love!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Christmas morning my father found this beautiful plantain flower at our garden. Food for thought, my father brought it at home to show us. He said, “I found this small plantain flower with six raw bananas.” Raw bananas will grow, so he cut the flower and brought it to show me and my mother. We were surprised to see the beauty of the small plantain flower.<br />
<br />
“What a nice geometrical shape?” My mother said. “A perfect cone.” She asked me to take a picture.<br />
<br />
The lesson is how nature creates beautiful artistic shapes? The true art sometimes we can see, if we try to find them differently.<br />
<br />
Wish all a happy and wonderful Christmas and a brightest new year ahead!<br />

The dragonfly is an insect scientific name <i>pantala flavescent</i>, the globe skimmer or wandering glider of <i>Libellulidae</i> family. The most widespread and old dragonfly on the planet. It's German name wanderlibelle, Hong Kong name typhoon fly, Japanese name Usubaki Tombo and Bengali name Jheejhee. Captured in my Nokia Lumia 630 Smartphone. This is one of my best insect photography.<br />

This is my nightmare experience in Micromax Mobiles Check Point. Last July 2015 I purchased a Micromax X070 handset for Rs. 1099 and after a month suddenly the mobile screen becomes white. It was under warranty so I took the handset to Micromax Check Point at Basirhat for check up they took the phone and given me a receipt.</div>

They took the handset and given me a receipt for repair. First they told, within 2 weeks they will fix the issue. After two weeks I visited the service center when they said from Micromax main service hub the parts not given to them.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Gave me Micromax Customer service toll-free no: 1860 500 8286</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Then I called the number and ask for help. Some executive took my complaint and said within 10 days they will fix the issue.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
To my worst experience and the beginning of my nightmare. After 10 days I visited Micromax Service Point the set was not ready. Then I told them I had complained in the toll-free no and they said 10 days my set will ready. Then the service point asked me what was the complaint no? I was surprised to hear that, the customer support executive did not mention any such thing to me.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Then I came back and tweet on twitter and copied <a href="http://www.mouthshut.com/micromax_mobile/timeline" style="color: #1c4c9c; cursor: pointer; outline: none; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">@micromax_mobile</a> "I registered a complaint at your given site.

Then a lady from Micromax customer center called me and told:</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Mr. Vikram we are looking at this matter. We cannot repair your phone. We will give another handset, but it will not be a sealed product. Give us one week you can receive the changed set at Micromax Basirhat service point. We will call from our side and confirm you once the handset will reach there.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Wel,l they made a false promise. 26th Nov 2015 the lady from Micromax care promised over the call. Today it's 25th Dec 2015. Shame they did not have any responsibility. Still the handset is at Micromax Basirhat Service Check Point. Now 90 days past my Micromax handset under warranty is still not fixed.<br />

<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
I had a bad nightmare after I bought Karbonn SMART TAB 1 for my uncle. I had a budget of Rs. 7000 - 7500 when I saw this tab is coming in Rs. 6800. My uncle who is a Gram Panchayat clerk and is not very much technology person.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
He asked me to buy a tab for his limited purpose of checking emails, take photos, generate MS excel reports.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
This tab comes with specification:</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">

512MB RAM</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
It was totally out of knowledge that internal memory less means even it supports 32GB microSD card the device is useless. You need at least 8GB inbuilt memory in any of the smartphone or tablet. Unless update installed apps taking more than the internal space and because of that, you can't connect the device to the internet.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
Then it started hang every time when play store is open. In this tab the memory is the biggest pain. My uncle was calling me on every next hour and asking what device I bought? It is like a toy tab of Rs. 6800.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
Then it starts with the battery backup problem. In September, I went to Basirhat service center and they told it will not give more than 4-5 hours backup. But the battery is 3700 mAH.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
To be frank, I purchased this tablet from my friend's shop and he told me this is the best budget tab in the market. I trusted my friend and didn't even saw the details. But from next time, I will obviously see the specifications carefully before buying any such device.</div>

This was my one of the best purchase in my life. I purchased my Ipod Classic in 2009. The product seemed very new in the market at that time.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
The best thing is still the iPod is working and I never able to fulfill the space it has. Hardly the songs I listen occupied 30GB space and rest of space remained unused for the lifetime.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
So that makes no sense to me after six months of crazy use.</div>
<br style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" />
<div style="color: #0e2233; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">
Battery backup is extremely good. Once charged the standby time still 30days. Play time 20 hours nonstop.</div>

The device cost for apple is always high. As my view on that, the product is made of steel is a collectors piece so not a big deal. But the technology has a gap.

<br />
1. According to 2015 World Literacy Report, India is a country where 72.1% of the population are educated. Still we are ashamed when we come to know out of 100 women 99 suffered from sexual violence in our society. This is also understandable the educated men and women are the major culprits in sexual harassment cases hiding inside the society. Which is the cause mostly women who feel insecure and powerless to speak and stand against such people in power and position.<br />
<br />
But before that, there is a lack of knowledge about Basic Human Rights in women and such ignorance is another unpleasant condition. Amnesty International India's <a href="http://amnesty.ketto.org/KYR" target="_blank">#KnowYourRights</a> is an e-learning platform where women can learn their basic human rights by spending half an hour. They can teach the same to others in the society. Knowledge is a basic weapon which can help them in occasions just by standing against the barbaric sexual cruelty.<br />

2. We born of a mother and many of us have sisters at home. A person should understand that they are just not like a dog or cat to fulfil their sexual desire by forcing any women in the society. Understanding the meaning of the word "LOVE" which makes us being human that is not forcing our physical desires but involved equal respect.<br />
<br />
3. A woman is respectful and she has the same rights to live freely in the society anytime, anywhere. She has rights to get the education, walk safely in the street. Many highly powerful, educated, doctors, lawyers, journalists, executives and women celebrities also become victims but they fear about the higher society values and their popularity in concern which causing damage. The leadership among the high educated women in this country is missing which is very harmful for the common women to understand their rights. Most sexual harassment cases silenced by either life threats or giving money or other such opportunities.<br />
<br />
<b>What are your rights to report against sexual violence?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> <i>● Sexual violence does not only include physical harm. The law was changed in 2013 to</i><br />
<i>cover a broader range of offences, including sexual harassment, voyeurism and stalking</i><br />
<i>● One can file an FIR against sexual violence in any police station, not necessarily the one</i><br />
<i>nearest to the incident.</i><br />
<i>● One can register a complaint either over phone or e-mail. But to complete the FIR</i><br />
<i>registration one must visit a police station</i><br />
<i>● An FIR can be filed by a friend, witness or a family member too. But they must have the</i><br />
<i>full consent of the survivor and the survivor must be willing to be part of the investigations</i><br />
<i>later.</i><br />
<i>● If a survivor of sexual violence is physically or mentally disabled, a police officer must visit</i><br />
<i>the survivor to register the FIR</i><br />
<i>● Police cannot refuse to file an FIR. If refused, the police officer can be punished under the law</i><br />
<i>and you can register a complaint with higher authorities.</i><br />
<i>● A woman police officer must be present when you file an FIR against sexual violence</i><br />
<i>● After registering an FIR, one is entitled to a court-appointed lawyer. But it is good to</i><br />
<i>consult your own lawyer.</i><br />

Paris Climate Conference in the month of November 2015 was a successful conference in the world history in the past 100 years. Prime Minister Narendra Modi who made all the Indian proud by his leadership, where India played a "critical role" at the climate change summit in Paris which ensured the event was a "historic success." The world leaders gave a big hand to Prime Minister Modi's speech and many of them want to invest in India to produce more Green Energy. Now the time has started ticking to act.<br />
<br />
In India, we are not utilizing Green Energy like Solar, Wind, Hydro energy at its best level. Wind power is the conversion of wind speed using the wind turbines into useful electricity or mechanical energy. India needs a large number of wind farms typically connected to the rural areas. A wind energy firm is capable of powering any large appliances to entire houses depending on the size. Wind farms installed on agricultural land have the lowest environmental impacts of all energy sources. The wind energy is truly and 100% #GreenEnergy source.<br />
<br />
In several countries it has achieved relatively high levels of penetration, accounting for approximately 19% of electricity production in Denmark, 11% in Spain and Portugal, and 7% in Germany and 1.8% in India in 2008.<br />
<br />
According to the Cambridge <b>Union of Concerned Scientists</b>, <i>harnessing the wind is one of the cleanest, most sustainable ways to generate electricity. Wind power produces no toxic emissions and none of the heat-trapping emissions that contribute to global warming. This is the fact that wind power is one of the most abundant and increasingly cost-competitive energy resources makes it a viable alternative to the fossil fuels that harm our health and threaten the environment.</i><br />

Windergy India is a fastest-growing unique digital platform to create awareness about the Wind Energy sector in India. Rural areas in India are electrified non-uniformly, where progressive states being able to provide a majority of the villages with Green Energy while other states still struggling to do so. <b>The Rural Electrification Corporation Limited</b> was formed to specifically address the issue of providing electricity in all the villages across the country. Poverty, lack of resources, lack of political will, poor planning and electricity theft are some of the major causes which have left many villages in India without electricity, while urban areas have enjoyed growth in electricity consumption and capacity. According to the <b>Pradhan Mantri Gram Vidyut Yojana</b> is increasingly trying to improve the dire conditions by investing heavily in biogas, solar and <b>wind energy.</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The work is also on-going for reducing wastage, providing better equipment and improving the overall infrastructure for electrical transmissions in villages. Currently, more than 85% of villages in India have been electrified with a further goal of providing complete electrification by 2020. According to the "Installed capacity of wind power projects in India" report published on 31 March 2015 Tamil Nadu generating a capacity of 7455.2 MW energy from the Wind. Then Gujarat 3645.4 MW, Maharashtra 4450.8MW followed by Rajasthan 3307.2MW, Karnataka 2638.4MW, Andhra Pradesh 1031.4MW and Madhya Pradesh 879.7MW.</div>

<b>Windergy India:</b><br />
<br />
Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association has launched Windergy India – is slated to be the voice of the Wind Energy industry.<br />
<br />
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has set ambitious targets for the Wind Energy sector. As the sector aims to reach 60,000 MW capacities, it needs the support of the government.<br />
<br />
Windergy India aims to create wider public awareness on the benefits of wind energy, and the sectors efforts in India. Its mission to develop recommendation for Wind Energy among the general public.<br />
<br />
Towards this, they have set up their presence on social media platforms. They are also developing a website, and working on a series of campaigns to help spread awareness about the benefits of wind energy as a viable solution to India's energy crisis and its impact on global warming and climate change.<br />

Here I used WeiKFiELD vanilla custard powder 2 tbsp (20 gms.) mixed well with 3 tbsp of milk in a cup. Boiled remaining milk in a pan and added Sugarfree Natura and stir till it dissolves. Added custard milk mixture, stirred continuously and boiled the mixture for two to three minutes. Put it in a bowl and put some dry fruits in it. Let it cool for 15 mins and enjoy with the slices of apples.</div>

Xiaomi, Chinese smartphone manufacturer has new surprises. Xiaomi developers working day and night to surprise us with MIUI 8 soon. Hope it will come with "Android M" updates too. Sources said Google announced a list of Smartphones going to get "Android M" where in that list Xiaomi Prime 2 is listed. Though Xiaomi does not officially announced any such update is going to release in near future.<br />

<br />
Still there is no update happened for Lollipop 5.1 in Redmi Prime 2 in India. Inbuilt Kitkat 4.4 latest version which is quite similar to Lollipop. So still customers do not need to worry about the OS update. But there is a huge expectation for Google's newly lunched "Android M" update in Redmi Prime 2. Which we think will going to happen in the next MIUI 8 version and will soon update all Redmi Prime 2 smart phones. </div>
