Prevent stealing of Mobile Phones

Very basic way to keep your cellphones safe is to tie it to a Retractable Key/Card Holder that you lock into belt loop from inside the trouser's pocket. No big deal to stitch safety hook inside the pocket thats strong enough to not tear.

But what if you can still go electronics/tiny area radio signal way?! If your phone moves away 2 feet from your radio signaled detector/bluetooth, hidden somewhere in your body, then the phone beeps loud even if its silent mode! You catch the thief. If the real owner have to pick up the phone, s/he can type in the password to nullify detection for the moment.

OR....There must be some way of the mobile phone detecting a hand by it's pressure, or position or skin print within 10 seconds of anyone lifting it. If its not the true owner that has picked the phone, it's internal security should generate high pitched siren!! 

Or even, if skin or pressure detection is not possible, there must be a way to detect its been picked up and if the true owner doesn't type in the pass code, the siren goes off!! Imagine someone picking your pocket in a bus? Can he really get away without getting caught?! :)

Why shouldn't I be awarded a cash prize for my

Using high space for Emergency services

Maybe we cannot have too many overpass and underpassing roads in Bangalore or such metros. But the space above is not much utilized for transport. The urgent need in such a city is to tackle emergency situations such as accident victims, health emergency or even helping stranded animals. 

The access to such points should be made easy by not having ambulances wade through ungiving traffic but instead use the space above by constructing exclusive tracks across the city, in most efficient, optimising, convenient design. An ambulance that is like a box with all basic emergency serving equipments and fitted with pullys/cranes, must hang from these to pull up victims/patients. 

These tracks must criss cross the city that connects from/through accident prone locations to hospitals. 



Tailpiece:
Ambulances must be fit with a radio and mobile signal jammers! While they move through the traffic, they jam the radios to let their siren be heard! :) Haven't you realized how careless of life we are when we are involved listening to our favourite RJ or music?

Hindus discovered before they did.

Old news!

But its always NEW when its about India's pride :)

Here is what I found while reading about Sir Isaac Newton.

Indians predated Newton 'discovery' by 250 years (link)

"The beginnings of modern maths is usually seen as a European achievement but the discoveries in medieval India between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries have been ignored or forgotten.
"The brilliance of Newton's work at the end of the seventeenth century stands undiminished - especially when it came to the algorithms of calculus.
"But other names from the Kerala School, notably Madhava and Nilakantha, should stand shoulder to shoulder with him as they discovered the other great component of calculus- infinite series.
"There were many reasons why the contribution of the Kerala school has not been acknowledged - a prime reason is neglect of scientific ideas emanating from the Non-European world - a legacy of European colonialism and beyond
