NEW DELHI: Indian industry giant Reliance Group is launching its 4G service, Jio for its employees on the occasion of the birth anniversary of its founder chairman Dhirubhai Ambani, according to the sources.

According to inside sources the company is already giving out 4G SIMS to its employees.


The company has also been giving its employees an offer to buy two of Reliance LYF smartphones -- LYF Earth and LYF Water at 25% discount. In the LYF range of smartphones, Earth is their flagship and most premium smartphone, followed by LYF Water.


Industry and company sources said Reliance, which aims to roll out India's first national 4G service in the coming months, has been talking to groups including Gionee, Huawei and Xiaomi, as Chinese firms also seek a platform to build their presence in a lucrative and growing market like India.


The retail arm of Mukesh Ambani-promoted Reliance Industries is also mulling partnership with e-commerce firms such as Amazon, eBay, Flipkart and Snapdeal to push its 'Earth', 'Water', 'Wind' and 'Fire' series of phones, according to people aware of the matter.


Also, if you search for a SIM network on a 4G ready smartphone like the iPhone 6, you will end up finding Reliance Jio network too. This means the network has been laid down and by the looks of it should be available early next year.

Dr Laennec's stethoscope bears little semblance to the modern stethoscope. Unlike those used today, Dr Laennec's stethoscope was not a set of ear pieces connected by a plastic tube to a chest piece. His stethoscopes were simple cylinders made from wood and metal. The doctor using it would simply place it directly over the area in question and listen at the other end. 2. His first stethoscope was a rolled up piece of paper Described in his  1819 treatise  on this device, Dr Laennec invented the stethoscope while treating a young woman suffering from symptoms of heart disease. 3. The stethoscope was not his only contribution to medical science I...

EPA and the regulation of greenhouse gasses

This week, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined private and public sector leaders for a second annual White House roundtable discussion about the progress made and new steps taken to curb emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning.

"EPA is working closely with industry leaders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to climate-friendly refrigerants, and deploy advanced refrigeration technologies,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “The powerful combination of EPA’s regulatory actions and innovations emerging from the private sector have put our country on track to significantly cut HFC use and deliver on the goals of the President’s Climate Action Plan.” Among the actions announced today, EPA proposed a rule that would improve t...
