Clean the Grime Between Your Oven's Window with a Hanger  Originally Posted By : http://www.lifehacker.co.in/life/Clean-the-Grime-Between-Your-Ovens-Window-with-a-Hanger/articleshow/29171652.cms   Melanie Pinola, Gawker Media Jan 21, 2014, 11.00 PM IST When you clean your oven, chances are one area will still be neglected and dirty: the oven window glass. That's because stains can get caught between the glass window. Anna Moseley shows us how to finally clean it, using a hanger and a glass cleaning wipe. Essentially, you wrap the cleaning wipe around a straightened hanger and secure it with a rubber band. Then, slide the cleaning "contraption" through the slot between the door and the glass (found on the bottom of the oven door). Anna lay on the floor to do this, but you should be able to take the door off the oven instead. (Try lifting the door up when it's opened slightly or checking your oven manual.) After this, you'll have a pri

Deal Tactfully With Your Moody Boss Manisha Goel Jan 14, 2014, 10.45 AM IST In today's high pressure work environment, mood swings are quite common. People display frequent and unpredictable changes in mood , which make it difficult for others to work with them. If your boss is one of them, then you must be feeling like the victim of his/ her mood swings. People facing mood swings feel one minute up and next minute down. They are not willing to engage with others, or they have a bad attitude and appear confrontational or snappy towards others. Compared to a boss that tends to be in a good mood all the time, a moody boss does not see the impact of his bad mood has on others, no matter what the reason is for their disturbed minds. They overlook the opportunity to reflect mature behavior and a self-correct negative attitude. So, here are some tips you can follow to manage with your moody boss: 1. Watch for pattern: Spiking your boss's coffee with mo

How to Disable Gmail's New Feature that Let Google+ Users Email You Alan Henry, Gawker Media Jan 13, 2014, 07.00 PM IST Last week, Google announced that Gmail users can email their Google+ connections without knowing their email address first. For some, it's an easy way to stay in touch. For others, it's a ticket to unwanted email. However you feel, here's how to turn the feature off, or set it so only the people you want can use it. Now that the new feature has rolled out to Gmail users (although it hasn't gotten to Google Apps users, as far as we can see), controlling who can email you is pretty simple: Click here to open the General tab in your Gmail Settings. Scroll down to Email via Google+ . Click the drop-down and select your preferred option. "Circles" (which was the default for me) only allows people in your circles-not those who have circled you-to contact you. "Extended circles" allows friends of your friends

And this year will indeed be the turning point of my life" I may still have not achieved this all (at least not to the extent that I had wished for anyway) but that has not stopped me from dreaming and day dreaming about the same as yet!
