MLM and Social Networks

Good Morning, all readers !!!
And a nice Hello to everyone

Having plenty of free time, so just thought of blogging something.
Here's one of the storiesnexperience post about MLM and Social Networks.

I was in Japan when I got introduced to this HealthCare company.
People said that they got reach in no time after joining this company.

I attended one of their brain washing sessions. The concept was simple,
   “Introduce someone and you get benefits. 
      And on every purchase made by him get more benefits in terms of percentage of the purchase”
Mathematically, it’s unstable model, so you need to control the limits of earnings, or the maximum  number of purchasers connected under you in the graph.
They rely on mouth to mouth advertising for expansion of this graph. The more it expands, the more profit will the people on the top of the graph get. The graph is filled with lot of hopes of big digit dreams. Many people back out after some struggling. There are ways to go to the top, some of which are fishy. There are plans which say “Spend More Get More”

A lot of negative opinions are present when this kind of MLM model is implemented physically with mouth to mouth advertising.
Only if we can trap the potential of this model with the social networks, 
carefully enough that the users at least get something rather than negative profits.

Simple implementations are Invitation Code systems.
In this one, you introduce your friend by using Introduction Code, and then when he registers using your code, you get the benefits. This is MLM of first order. 
In general, this could be used for any action with an action_code and action_benefits.

When we expand it to multiple levels, we need to build a strong graph.
One of the reasons why many of us quit while taking sessions from the the MLM companies, is due to the amount of effort required build a strong graph. You need to talk with many people and convince them to enrol in this scheme. You got to have free time to do this. 
What if we can use the social networks to do our job. 
It could be anyone, twitter’s followers/following network, facebook’s friend of friend network, and so on. On this network, you can clearly calculate which node gets the benefits from other nodes.
Integrating with social networks has lot of potential to generate profits.

This system can also be used for audience gathering for events.
You can have a facebook party event. People invite their friends to this party and get discounted fee. In no time, your event will be overbooked.

In case of buying/selling markets, this system will be similar to using people as salesman. You put any item for sale on some e-commerce site, and you generate a Selling Code for each registered user on that site. Then if someone buys that item with your Selling Code, then you get the benefits.
The seller does not have to put extra effort in pushing the product, while the idle users (just the free-surfing users) can get benefit for acting like salesman.

Mentioning the positives, there are negatives of this integration too !!! 
SPAMMING !!! 
Sending too many mails, or posting multiple times wont just do good until it is good quality content.
So that requires some good brain storming to build better relationships.

So let’s explore and share this new domain.
Please let me know your opinions on this topic!!!

SimpleChickenRecipe



Hi all,
This is my second blog on Indian food.
The first blog which I wrote was in last year, around November. It was in Japanese.
I didn't create english version, so I will just summarise it for you.

--------------------------
It was a criticising type of blog targeting SOME of the Indian Restaurants in Japan.
A strong criticism on Indian restaurants for making the OnlyCurryNNan Image of Indian food.
A general response you will get when you ask someone in Japan about Indian food is that people just eat Nan and Curry everyday.  This is ridiculous. 

One more special feature of Nan in Japan is that,  a Nan as big as normal dining plate, no no, its actually bigger than the plate. A SUPER Nan (a habit to put SUPER before anything!!!). It was quite surprising to me as it would be for any fellow Indian. 

Then comes the Curry base (masala). They have the list of different curries (chicken curry, chicken tikka, ...etc) but the base masala used is same for all curries.

Due to this people are still unaware of the rich variety of Indian culinary delights.
So one of my goal, which had I set out for myself, is to search out for unique Indian restaurants which serve dishes other than Nan&Curry and introduce them to the Japanese foodies.

------ INTERVENTION -------

Just complaining about the Indian restaurants failing to educate the Japanese foodies about Indian food, won't improve the present. Updating them with the reality is the need of the hour. Someone has to take some kind of initiative or else the OnlyCurryNNan image won't change till years to come.

Generally I don't cook at home, so I am kind just a rookie. So whenever there is any food party at friend's home, I am in charge of cutting vegetables and cleaning (mostly the later one).

But that doesn't mean that I can't cook. Actually it all depends on the mood. So this Saturday, decided to make a chicken dish as simple as it could be and at the same time delicious too !!!.

Here's the recipe for the SimpleChicken dish. A textual recipe is so boring and takes quite time to write and read as well. So decided to post a #visualRecipe that can be a quick read.

Simple Ingredients:
Capsicum, Chicken 
Onion, Garlic

Clean the chicken properly.


I generally prefer to throw away the skin of chicken.
But some people don't mind eating it, 
so if you think it's wastage then you can use it as well.

We will add 3 basic spices only
Chilly powder, Turmeric, Salt

Add the above three spices and mix it properly with the chicken.




Once it gets mixed properly, the colour of the chicken changes to yellowish red.
This will give a typical masala taste to the chicken.
Just taste a bit to confirm the amount of salt and chilly powder.

I guess 2 onions will be sufficient.

Also 2 capsicums will be more than enough, 
or else it will lead to bitter taste.

Get one piece of garlic and remove its shell cover.

The things to be cut look like this.

This is a nice pic to indicate cutting!

Chop the onion into thin slices.
Here any shape cutting will do because at last, 
the onion gets converted into gravy.



Chop the capsicum into long think stick shapes.

Chopping the garlic is quite difficult step.
chop it into fine pieces.
First slice it horizontally, then vertically and then
slice it off on from the front side to back end.
This will result into small fine pieces of garlic.

Collect all the chopped stuff into one plate.

Since now, the preparations are finished,
Lets begin with the cooking part.

Before we start cooking, just put a small amount 
(approx half of the chopped garlic)
with chicken, so that we can get a small taste 
blended with chicken, while cooking.


Any available pan or cooking vessel will do.

There is hardly any oil required for cooking, 
because on heating the chicken will release some oil.
So just put 1-2 small drops of oil for lubrication, just to make sure that 
the chicken pieces doesn't get stick to pan.

Maintain a medium flame.

Put the mixture into the pan, and stir it 1-2 times.
Make sure that the chicken is half cooked.
It takes about a few minutes, when the colour of chicken 
changes from red to yellowish brown.

Note that we have put the chicken first and then the onions.
Normally onions are fried in oil and then the other ingredients(onions..) are added.
But what I wanted is to maintain the taste of onions and capsicum.
And tried to maintain its crispiness too.
Basically to avoid overcooking the onions and capsicums.

So once the chicken is half cooked, 
add the chopped onions and capsicums and the rest of the garlic into the mixture.



Mix it properly.

We can increase the flame at this point.

Cover the lid, so that the half cooked chicken gets cooked under the steam.



It will take about 15-20 minutes.
Adjust the heating time and heating flame till you get the desired thickening.

There are different ways in which you can serve this dish.
Take some freshly chopped cabbage, 
and arrange it as a base layer in a dish.

Put chicken on top of this cabbage layer.
Masala of chicken will drain off and will add special taste to cabbage.

You can add small finely chopped onion on the top of chicken.
This gives a delicious taste while eating chicken pieces.




And ya , the most boring thing to do after cooking is cleaning.

----------
Cooking once in a while,
Was a fun after so long time,
To get the feeling, that you cannot simply die,
With always this recipe to make, without a cry.

インド料理:簡単なチキンレシピ

こんにちは皆さん、お元気ですか!
久しぶりにインド料理ブログを書いている。
去年の11月に書いてたインド料理のブログは結構ヒットになった。
皆さんのいいコメントと「いいね」&フェースブックシェアありがとう!
これからも盛り上がっていきましょう

前回のブログ

前回は日本にあるインド料理レストランに文句を言った。
今回はそれの改善方法を考え中だ。
一つは自分でいろいろ料理を初回しようと思ってたが、やっぱり無理だな。
自分の力だけでなんともならないんで、友達と勉強会みたいな何かやろうかなって思ってる。
詳細は決まったら共有するので、楽しみにしていてくださいませ。

さて、今日の料理は簡単なチキンレシピだ。
レシピを簡単にしたかったから、複雑なスパイスとかは使えません。っていうか、実はね、そもそも俺はスパイスがそんな詳しくわからないよ〜。問題はそれだ。
まぁでもスパイスがわからなくてもおいしいインド料理食べれればいいでしょう。

料理のレシピを書く必要ないと思うほどびっくりぐらい簡単!!!
なので、主に画像で説明する。

材料:
ピーマン(capsicum), 鶏肉(chicken) 
玉ねぎ(onion), にんにく(garlic)

鶏肉をよく洗って下さい。


これ人によるんだけど、
私鶏肉の皮がそんなに好きじゃないから捨てています。

基本的なスパイスだけ入れる:
チリパウダー(chilly powder), 
ターメリック(turmeric), 
塩(salt)

上の三つを洗った鶏肉に入れてください




こんな感じで混ぜてください。このプロセスは多分 marination と読んでいます。実際にはプレーンヨーグルトとガーリック・ジンジャーペーストも混ぜるとチキンカレー用なmarinationになると思います。さっき言った通り、ベシックのところしかわからない。。。

次は 【人斬り抜刀斎】を読んでくださいwww, 
切るスキルをテストしよう。
2つの玉ねぎの皮をむいて、洗ってください。

ピーマン2つも洗ってください。

にんにくも皮をむいて、洗ってください。

一皿にまとめるとこんな感じ

よしゃ、切ろう

好きな切り方で構わないですが、
私は今回は薄切りにしました。



次ピーマン、
これも今回は細切りにしました。

次はニンニク、これは難しい
ニンニクはみじん切りにする。

全部切った後のまとめ
るろうに剣心バーイバーイ!

準備終わり、これからクッキングだ

いったんちょっとだけガーリック(半分ぐらい)
チキンと一緒に混ぜてください。
そうするとチキン焼けるとき
ニンニクの味が少しつくので美味しくなると思う。


蓋付きのソテーパン(sauté pan)が一番ベスト。
まぁ、蓋できるならなんでも大丈夫。

肉から油が出てきますので、油は薄く引いて下さい、
鶏肉がいきなりくっつくないように。

中火にして下さい。

チキンをソテーパンに入れてください。

チキンを数分焼いてください。
鶏肉を先に入れるのには理由があります。
玉葱とピーマンを先に入れると焦げるので、
鶏肉を先に半分くらい焼いておきます。

切ったタマネギ、ピーマンと残りのニンニクを入れてください。




この後火を少し強くしてもかまわない。




多分15分〜20分ぐらいでこんな感じになります。
これもどのぐらいまでドロドロにしたいかによって
火加減と時間を調整して下さい。

千切りしたキャベツをお皿に盛りつけてください。

盛りつけたキャベツの上にチキンを盛りつけて下さい。

後はいろいろDecorationは考えれば考えるほど出来るけど
とてもシンプルなのは玉ねぎをみじん切りにして上に乗せるとおいしいし、
見た目もキレイです。




後最後だ、片付け!!!
