The Funny ICICI bank

The Funny ICICI bank This is the experience I had with ICICI bank today morning. Tamperfinder was quite happy when the Distance Education University asked him to remit the tuition fee by DD preferably thro’ ICICI bank, not because he likes private new generation banks, but this bank exempt DD commission for tuition fee for my university. Very good As I tendered my application for DD for a small amount less than 10000, the chocolate boy at counter asked me whether I possess necessary identification documents with me. ‘Identification for this small amount?’ Whispered tamper finder. ‘Yes sir’,This is our rule and have to follow it scrupulously. ‘Bhayya,…I’m an SB account holder of this bank, still want identification for this just 4 figure amount?’ ‘Yes that’s our rule, we have to follow scrupulously’ OK.. Tamperfinder gave the original identity card, a driving license, first scrutinized by Asst manager, then by deputy manager and finally by the Branch Manager himself. Finally he handed it over to the security, who simply disappeared??!!! 5 minuets passed……… no response. ‘Sir……….. we will get u everything within 10 minutes’ one of the ‘boys ‘said…. ‘This is our rule’ we have to follow scrupulously’ ???? 10 minutes passed. One gentle man came to withdraw 500000 rupees. No cross checking…….. Simply arranged the money. Another came for depositing a bunch of 500 notes. No checking, but with a smile they ‘snatched’ the amount and deposited. Tamperfinder is in double trouble. He gets neither the DD nor his identity card. They may get a duplicate of this? Why cant? No? These people are not like this, tamperfinder consoled by him. Again few minutes passed ? ‘Sir, this is our rule we have to follow scrupulously’. Very good Again time passed ??? ‘Sir the system is slow, the printer is not responding’ that’s why the DD getting delayed.’ ‘Yes …the printer may also verify the genuineness and it also has to follow the rule scrupulously,’ the tamper finder said to himself. Tamperfinder had a long relationship with ICICI bank. Once his account was freezed by the authorities Not because any Government orders… Not because any court orders….. But one of the staff, by error has done it Later the Branch manager visited tamperfinder’s house at night with a bunch of orchid and an apology letter. All these things flashed to his mind ‘Sir, here is your DD,the same gentleman standing in front of me, making abrupt end to my memories. He soon left the bank. Ssssssssssssssssiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr……….. One man is running towards him? Why???? tamperfinder also start running as if something caught fire ? Any security problem? ‘Sir, You have to put two signatures on photo copy of ID card and attest the identification card of which we have scanned a copy to keep with us…………” He completes all in single breathe. “And that’s our rule and we…………” …….”Have to follow scrupulously…” this time completed by tamperfinder The only error tamper finder has done is still operating a SB account with them in spite of all these underprivileged dealings and spent unnecessary time for availing the facility of free DD. For saving 25 rupees, he gas to spend 25 minutes .Tamper finder is pennywise and pound foolish. The Funny ICICI bank!!!!!!!!!

OVERLOAD

The Power Sector all over the world is crippled with insufficient generation, pitiable transmission and distribution network, mis use and theft. New consumers are supplemented to the net work day by day making the system further frail. The generation remains almost constant and its gap between demand is diverging. The revenue scenario is also in a disorganized condition since the entire process in controlled by the regulatory regime The fiction 'OVERLOAD' written by Sir Arther Hailey, way back, is a true reflection of the pathetic situation of power sector all over the world. The novel begins with the challenging role of the Public Relations Manager of the utility, ‘Golden State & Power’. It clearly describes the role of managers at load dispatch centre, who usually act as trapezium managers, during peak hours in under developed countries; even after imposing various system restrictions like blackout and brownouts, to avoid total shutdown. Though written years back, its significance is still immense. The book is written in simple language, but knowledge of technical terms of power sector would be an added advantage to digest the ingredients ,appearing through out the book.

Simple steps, big savings

Here are tips to help us in these times of shooting power costs. SIMPLE SOLUTION: One simple way of saving electricity will be to remember to turn the switches off. With power cut and a thermal surcharge in place, electricity consumers are scurrying for tips to save power and optimise energy use. From energy audits to sparing the use of the electric iron, consumers leave nothing unattended to save electricity because family budgets and corporate budgets threaten to go haywire in the middle of the financial year. The most important question now being asked is, Can we enjoy a better lifestyle with much-reduced consumption of electricity? G. Sreenivasan, Public Relations Officer, Kerala State Electricity Board asked this in his blog on World Energy Day (http://meet-tamperfinder. blogspot.com/2007/12/ december14- world-energy-day.html). If sufficient attention is given to the design of the house, use of artificial lighting can be controlled. Windows and ventilators should be placed in such a way to maximise the use of natural light. If the placing of the windows and other openings are right, no artificial lighting will be needed during the daytime. In the same way, use of the right paints can enhance the light effect. Lampshades should be cleaned regularly. Lighting equipment, fans and refrigerators are the key items used in a middle-class family which account for the bulk of the power consumption. The ordinary incandescent bulb is the major culprit in electricity wastage. Only five per cent of the power drawn by an electric bulb is converted into light. The fluorescent lamp is a better source of light and gives 50 times more light than an ordinary bulb of the same wattage can. Using electronic chokes increases its efficiency. Compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) are more energy efficient than fluorescent lamps, but they should be avoided in study rooms and laboratories where the strain on the eyes have to be taken into consideration. In a broad and spacious dining room, one or two CFLs of 12 watts each will be sufficient. The CFLs are recommended for the kitchen where light has to be on for five to six hours, portico, TV room, prayer room and so on. In short, a CFL gives the same light as that of an ordinary bulb with only 15 per cent of the latter’s energy consumption. Use task-lighting rather than whole room lighting when a small amount of light is required. The best way to control power consumption is to switch off the lights when no one is in the room. It is estimated that 10 per cent of the average home expenditure on power can be controlled by switching off lights that are not needed. The myth of the ‘zero-watt’ bulb has to be busted. If a so-called zero-watt bulb is on for 24 hours a day, as in most cases it is, it consumes seven to 10 units of power a month. Using electronic regulators can help reduce power consumption in running fans. Old fans may need attention. Cold facts Refrigerators are the biggest consumers of power in an ordinary home. An ordinary single-door 165-litre refrigerator requires between 30 and 35 units of power a month and a 10-year-old refrigerator will consume one-and-a-half times more power than that. Use of the refrigerator has to be regulated. Open them only when needed. Keep the doors closed properly. Repair them regularly and replace old refrigerators. When moving out of station for more than a day or two, keep the refrigerator off. One straight way is to ensure buying an energy-efficient refrigerator as about 40 per cent of the power consumption in a middle-class family is attributed to the refrigerator. Use of electric irons as and when one requires leads to electricity wastage. Ironing all the clothes at a time can save a lot of power. Turn off the plug switches of television sets and DVD players instead of using only the remote to put off the equipment. Unplug appliances that are not in use. Using the washing machine in a planned manner can save power. For example, load the machines so as to use its optimum capacity. The instructions on maintaining the water level should be followed to optimise power consumption. The computer monitors can be switched off when listening to music on the computer so that power can be saved. Old wirings and leakages are other culprits that cause loss of electricity. These have to be attended to on a regular basis. (Courtesy “The Hindu”)

God's Own Utility

God’s own utility. August 13 It was 11.30pm. Philips TV in On. It is pitch dark outside. Tamperfinder is penning few words, referring books here and there. The nation is going to celebrate its 62nd independence day within two days, but Tamperfinder has lost all freedom and moving restlessly. He cursed all, even the adored scientists who invented electricity. He is burning midnight oil to present a case, of power theft, detected few years back. He is referring few technical and law books. Nothing emerged to his mind……. Nothing is remaining there………….. He earnestly hoped that, had he been provided with some more brain, he could have remembered all these figures and presented effectively before any forum. That’s why he decided to buy some more brain to store additional data for next day’s case. He soon moved to the city market where everything except the original mother is available for sale. Found few street vendors trading brains of various types. “How much does it cost for engineer’s brain?” The brainless tamperfinder asked. “It’s Rs100/gram”.,the shopkeeper replied without raising his head, as he knew, now a days no body turn up for purchasing this item as it’s available plenty in God’s own country. “Ok, How much you charge for a lawyer’s brain?” for that only tamperfinder made this journey. “It’s is Rs 1000/gram”. “Why it’s so much? Any reduction?” “Do you know how many lawyers we had to kill to get a gram of brain?” ??? August 14 Tamperfinder reached the lawyer’s office sufficiently early to discuss the case. “No parking near roadside” go……… goggo……… go……A police constable shouted against tamper finder’s driver, muttering something else, that might have escaped from the hands of Sir Herman Gundert,while he compiled the Dictionary. The office remained closed till 10.30AM. And finally the lawyer arrived. A beautiful, stylish elegant lady of mid thirties. He forgot all the hardship for waiting. (Hardship never goes uncredited !!!) She preferred to discuss another case first, of a woman client, who came from a village far away. Ok…Ladies first? Tamperfinder waited patiently beside them, hearing their discussion. Her client is preparing for her 4th marriage, as understood from their discussion. “What happened to your previous husbands? “Asked the lawyer lady. “Madam, my first husband ate poisonous cutlet and died. Oh… How tragic !! the lady lawyer felt very sad. There are times when one cannot suppress feelings and emotions, especially the women. “What happened to your second husband?” the innocent lady continued the enquiry. “He ate poisonous cutlet, too and died” “Oh… how terrible and tragic”……..”I’m almost afraid to ask you about your 3rd husband………..” “He died of a broken neck” she said innocently. “Broken neck…?” “Yes, he wouldn’t ate the cutlet” ******************************************************************************** “GLEGLEGLE……” The tongue tied tamperfinder mumbled, not because cutlet is his favorite dish, but the further enquiry of the lawyer to ascertain what actually happened. Moral Street vendors and village woman always speak truth. .

Why women R so special.......?

Why Women R so Special..... ......... .

Mum and Dad were watching TV when Mum said, "I'm tired, and it's getting late. I think I'll go to bed."

She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's lunches. Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the freezer for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the table and started the coffee pot for rewing the next morning. She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of clothes into the washer, ironed a shirt and
secured a loose button.
She picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back on the charger and put the telephone book into the drawer. She watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung up a towel to dry. She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom. She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the
teacher, counted out some cash for the excursion and pulled a text book out from hiding under the chair. She signed a birthday card for a friend, addressed and stamped
the envelope and wrote a quick note for the grocery store. She put both near
her bag Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her Night
Solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her teeth and filed
her nails.



Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed."
"I'm on my way," she said. She put some water into the dog's dish and put
the cat outside, then made sure the doors were locked and the patio light
was on. She looked in on each of the kids and turned out their bedside lamps
and radios, hung up a shirt, threw some dirty socks into the hamper, and had a brief conversation with the one up still doing homework.


In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the next day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added three things to her 6 most important things to do list. She said her prayers, and visualized the accomplishment of her goals.

About that time, Dad turned off the TV and announced to no one in particular. "I'm going to bed." And he did...without another thought.

Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live longer...?

'CAUSE WE ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL...... (and we can't die
sooner, we still have things to do!!!!)

Send this to five phenomenal women today...they' ll love you for it! Then: GO TO BED!

Forward this to as many men as you can so that they know why women are so
special :)
