some excerpts from man is the extension of woman by Dr. Makarand Fulzele........

..External genitalia - labia fuse to scrotum and the clitoris extends to become a penis. The ovaries and testicles are basically same. But one is exposed to certain temperature for a particular period to grow into ovaries. Whereas testicles are cooled within time to maintain their integrity. To put it into scientific language, all humans are females to start with. Some develop further to become male. Man or woman is born. At puberty fully grown man or woman develops libido. At menopause, both female and male) estrogen or testosterone resources are finished and physical changes towards opposite gender start appearing. `So our life also runs in circle. We start at birth and then from infancy, become young. Then a full-grown woman or man is developed. One lifetime is consumed. The menopause is reached towards the end of the life. At this juncture man or woman is getting converted into the opposite sex. Before the changes are too prominent to be ignored, the man or woman is dead. They go to the grave with the secret!'

To BSNL Department, I Had BSNL Fibro 16LTD (6999 RS/Month) Plan, in which BSNL commit 16 MBPS but funny thing is they were unable to provide even 1.6 MBPS Speed... Stop offering this FTTH service... BSNL can't handle this..... and finally now i am discontinuing my FTTH Plan.. 

Guys... don't waste your money with BSNL FTTH...

I got myself an internet connection not too long ago. They allot 5GB, and then the speed reduces (Unlimited). I just wanted to know whether it's in the realm of possibilities to switch to slow version now and start using my 5GB later on, in the month?

On 14 Feb there was special offer of Internet. 1.5 GB 2G data for 30 days for Rs. 99 only. So I recharge with the same. but cheater IDea given me only 450 MB 2G data for 15 days.

So  I have lodged complaint about data benefit which was not given.

But today I got sms mentioning that my complaint is cancelled.

Idea  cancel the complaint without providing any solution. I have talked to customer care executive, he said system is slow and he can't give reason why complaint is cancelled blah blah blah.

Please suggest me the future course of action for the matter.

Hi Guys

              Checkout the MTS 3G PLUS speedtest in Bangalore. The connection seems to be extremely reliable and Stable.

In my opinion, MTS is performing much better than AirTel 4G in Bengaluru. 

850 Mhz penetration inside buildings is brilliant. EVDO REV.B UPGRADE (A.K.A 3G PLUS IN INDIA) 

MTS should add 1 more carrier of 1.25Mhz to achieve 14 Mbps, instead of just 9 Mbps.

I'm waiting for Support from DFS CDMA Team to Flash my Ipad Air sprint CDMA (without using a SIM card) Reliance RCOM has taken the wrong path in opting for HSPA+ technology with CA (carrier aggregation) They could have upgraded the existing CDMA network to EVDO rev.B by adding carriers.  

[*]Wireless connectivity.
[*]HP Ink Advantage cartridges (HP 678 Black and Color)
[*]HP ePrint support.
[*]Apple Airprint support.
[*]HP Wireless Direct support.
[*]Automatic print on both sides support.
[*]Scan through web portal.
[/list]Took a couple of prints and all were good enough.  The automatic print on both sides amazed me as I have seen this only on high end laser printers.  Scanned some old photos and it looks great too.  Printouts fired from my mobile/tablet works fine using the native print support in android 4.4 but the print comes comparatively slower which is probably because it prints on 'Normal' or 'Best' mode and in mobile I couldn't find an option to toggle this.
 
Overall a pretty solid printer for the price.

government on Thursday suspended the ambitious scheme to pay LPG subsidy in cash to consumers directly

Announcing the decision taken by the Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs, Oil Minister M Veerappa Moily said raising the quota of subsidised LPG to 12 cylinders from nine at present, will cost Rs 5,000 crore in additional subsidy annually."

There were certain issues on implementation on the ground because at places the seeding between Aadhaar number and bank account was not completed. Therefore to ensure that customers are not at inconvenience in the interim it has been decided that a committee will be constituted which will review only the implementation of DBTL. Pending the review, consumer will get subsidised cylinders as he was getting earlier," he said.

Since late last year, rumors began firing off about a potential "Transformers" sequel or sequels, and they ran the gamut. Paramount might film two sequels back to back. Michael Bay might return for both. Jason Statham may be the new star. Rumors came and went, but perhaps the biggest question lingered: Will Bay return to direct?

Goodbye BSNL! I finally have an viable option and can consign my BSNL broadband connection to the garbage. To be honest the service was not too bad - I had the 8 GB @ 2Mbps plan and by and large connectivity was okay. But the speed was never up to the mark. And on the few times I had problems, their customer service was so bad I felt like ripping the phone lines out of th wall. Firstly, they only work from around 10 AM to 5 PM. So what happens if there is a problem outside thosehours and urgent work is held up? And if you do call during working hours, it takes ages for anyone to answer - the average is the phone rings for about 10 minutes. And once you get an asnwer the oeprator is least interested in hearing about the problem - she is in a rush to give you a complaint number and go off.

But what made me decide to finally give BSNL the kick was a couple of weeks ago when the connection kept going on and off every few minutes. After the usual headaches I was able to maek a complaint in the morning. When nothing was done till late afternoon I spent another half an hour tryign to call them again. When I got through and said that nothing had been done about my complaint, the operator said that there is nothing she can do and gave me the number of the local telephoen exchange and said I should phone them. That number was, of course, always busy.

Another ongoing issue with BSL is that at fixed times everyday - aroud 5 PM and 10 AM in my case, the bandwidth dropped considerably. Other sers tell me that this is because BSNL allows public sector clients to use excess bandwidth - its a government to government thing and the hell with private users.

There are other service providers who offer up to 40 GB downlaod (upload not taken into account for calculating usage) at speeds of up to 15 Mbps. There is no reason why anyone should use BSNL. I am happy I got rid of this third rate organization.

Hello,

Just got a evdo prepaid card and SIM. I paid 1199 and they gave free 399 rs amount in the account. I asked them about the unlimited plan and they told me to recharge another 400 rs and it will become unlimited. So I went to paytm website and recharged 400 rs and now the balance is approx 915 rs. But still when I browse, I get SMS like "your balance is deducted so and so"..

If I'm on unlimited plan, why do I receive such sms?

Also how to confirm that I'm in unlimited plan.

when I went to register http://genext.bsnl.co.in/cdmaprepaid , it sent me a PIN number to my CDMA number, but I didn't receive it still, so cant use that site at the moment.

Please help.

Airtel website shows Fibernet plans in chennai. 8 to 100 Mpbs speed and 15 to 100 GB limit in the Fibernet category.

Just like its predecessors, the L Series II will come in a variety of sizes, with a 3.2-inch L3II, 4.0-inch L5II and 4.3-inch L7II on the way. According to LG, the second coming of the L Style adds Seamless Layout, Laser Cut Contour, Radiant Rear Design and Smart LED Lighting (the button at the bottom has a lighted edge) design elements to the beauty of the original phones. Other than screen size, the different versions will also feature different batteries, ranging from 2,460mAh in the largest to 1,540mAh in the smallest.

I recently got Beetel 450TC2 wifi-modem with my Airtel internet connection. I can connect to internet via lan wire but they have implemented enterprise wifi security for wireless connectivity. Basically, one has to register his/her devices via their website and only then he/she shall be able to connect to internet. Also it has a limit of only 4 devices via wifi as websites registers MAC of each device. If one has to add a new device he has to de-register previous device. In short it is "crap worthy". I tried to change the wifi authentication mode by login into the modem via 192.168.1.1 but it is locked (uneditable). Is there a custom firmware/ open source firmware/ other tricks that can be used to remove this bullshit authentication mode? Only in India can a company (Read Airtel) sell you broadband at a high cost as well as restrict it usage.
