Warning Over Mobile Use In Storms

Warning over mobile use in storms Experts are warning people not to use their mobile phones in bad storms as they may make lightning more dangerous. If lightning hits a person their skin normally spreads the current it carries across their body, but using a mobile can focus it on one part of the body. In one case in the UK a 15-year-old girl was left in a wheelchair after chatting on her phone during a storm. It's very rare to be hurt in this way, but doctors are concerned enough to want people to be aware of the risk. Click here for advice on what to do when there is lightning The chance of being hit by lightning is about one in three million. In China, Korea and Malaysia there have been reports of three people being killed after similar incidents. In Australia people are warned not to use mobiles or cordless phones outside during storms. UK doctors want similar warnings here too. Taken from newsround website. WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH

  I purchased my Gutka Sahib from the bookshop adjacent to Gurdwara Dukh Niwaran Sahib Patiala… You could try the UK Gurdwara shops, or other UK Gurbani stores…

  @ipledgeblue starched turbans are fine. Gurus also gave strict orders never to criticise or belittle a dastaar (of any style). If somebody prefers a solid pagg, which doesn’t move or lose shape, then this is fine. It’s better to have a starched turban that you feel comfortable in than one that you tie that makes you feel bad. For example, ppl I know tend to get quite frustrated if they can’t get their pagg right before a function, which makes them angry. Having a starched pagg is easier for them and saves them the stress, makes them nicer ppl in general

  @JassuObviously, it’s not rlly your business so don’t worry, but I’ll educate you. Someone who is 50% Rajput and 50% jatt is called “Rajput Jatt”. And btw, nobody is saying that one caste is better than the other, I’m just clarifying that Tarkhans aren’t the only ones who starch paggs (and that it happens on the Indian style as well as the Kenyan, maybe js not as commonly). Stop worrying about nuances and stick on topic or just don’t say anything.
