Create a secure alpha-numeric password comprising alphabets, numbers and special characters like #, $ etc. Don’t use your own name or other obvious names or numbers connected with you in creating your password. Change your password every few months.
- ‘Phishing’ can happen, but you can prevent it by checking that your netbanking website is authentic and not a look-alike site created by a phisher to dupe you. Check each letter to see that the URL is correct(http:/www.onlinessbi.com/for Online SBI) and nothing else.
- Watch out for ‘phishing’ e-mails, where a malicious letter targetd at you ask for your account details or passwords.
- Ignore such mails and inform the bank about them. Do not reply to them! Your bank will never ask for such details in any e-mail to you.
- If anybody visits you saying they’re from the bank, or approaches you via telephone and asks for your account details, never reveal anything. Inform the bank, and request a meeting with your branch manager if they need any information.

New Royal Enfield Classic
Feb 11th
The Royal Enfield Classic, the very first all new engine the firm has made for its Bullet in over 54 years! No there is nothing snide about this but rather the fact that just like the bullet wafts its way on the roads in the most pleasurable manner, it is but a reminder that to do an all new pushrod engine with the traditional appeal of a big single took some effort!
R L Ravichandran, the CEO of Royal Enfield said that the very essence that helps sell the Bullet is that it is a throwback to the past and they have nurtured this character so far pretty well. While trying to make it relevent for sale in the present emission-legislated times, they had now here to go for technology for engines of their kind. Thus technology sourcing and development is what took them so much time. The Classic in its 500cc EFI guise is a prety delightful time -machine which surely is the perffect antidote to the hyper-performing, high revving small Indo-Jap buzzbomb pleasure on two wheels a’la the latest Bullet.
Transgenic Brinjal: Good or Bad
Feb 10th
The introduction of Bacillus Thuringiensis Brinjal, popularly known as Bt brinjal in India, is still in the middle of debate. This is a genetically modified strain of the non-transgenic Brinjal promoted by India’s top seeds company Mahyco (Maharashtra Hybrid Seed Company) in collaboration with an US based transnational Monsanto and their aim is to improve the yields by a significant extent and also help the agricultural sector.
French scientist Professor Gilles-Eric Seralini of the Committee for Independent Research and Information on Genetic Engineering (CRIIGEN), carried out the first ever independent assessment of Monsanto-Mahyco’s report on toxicity tests submitted to the Indian regulatory authorities.
Seralini found many heath impact on not only the human and animal life but also on environment.He found :
It involves the insertion of a gene from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis into the DNA or genetic code of the Brinjal to produce pesticidal entotoxins in every cell. This toxin can induce antibiotic resistance in the vegetable cells.
this is a major health problem and is inappropriate for commercial use. Bt brinjal have 15 percent less calories and consists of different kinds of alkaloids compared to non-GM brinjal. It contains 16-17 mg/kg Bt insecticide toxin. When fed to animals, effects were observed on blood with significant differences according to the sex of the animal or period of measurement. Other effects were also found on blood clotting time (prothrombin), total bilirubin (liver health), and alkaline phosphate in goats and rabbits.
Changes in lactating cows were observed in increased weight gain, intake of more dry roughage matter and milk production up by 10-14 percent as if they were treated by a hormone.
Rats fed Bt brinjal had diarrhoea, increased water consumption, decrease in liver weight, and liver to body weight. Feed intake was modified in broiler chickens. But in anyhow, there are arguments in favour of its introduction, and there are strong reasons for refusing the approval of Bt brinjal. If it get approved then the Bt Brinjal would be the first genetically modified food in India.

Joke: True value of doing business with Bank
Feb 7th
Rajiv and Mona are flying to Australia for a two-week vacation to celebrate their 40th anniversary.
Suddenly, over the public address system, the Captain announces, “Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news.
Our engines have ceased functioning and we will attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on the beach. However, the odds are that we may never be rescued and will have to live on the island for the rest of our lives!”
Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the island.
An hour later Rajiv turns to his wife and asks, “Mona, did we pay our Rs 5lakh deposit cheque yet to Bank?”
“No, sweetheart,” she responds.
Rajiv, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, “Mona, did we pay our Bank Master card yet?”
“Oh no! I’m sorry. I forgot to send the cheque,” she says.
“One last thing, Mona. Did you remember to send cheques for the auto loan to them too this month?” he asks.
“Oh, forgive me, Rajiv,” begged Mona. “I didn’t send that one, either.”
Rajiv grabs her and gives her the biggest hug in 40 years. Mona pulls away and asks him, “So, why did you hug me?”
Rajiv answers, “They’ll find us!!!!”
