Prevent stealing of Mobile Phones

Image
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.  Courtesy link: SNAPDEAL.COM 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, th...

Using high space for Emergency services

Image
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...

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 Read more a...

Seeing it all the way....

Old history could not be recorded properly and so cannot be considered valid. We just have to believe certain history just because someone recorded it by writing, in those times. And then came the revolution of print media, video, audio and biometric recording etc. Now you CAN make a hard proof of events. The facts of today, is a valid History of tomorrow. But looking at it from a philosophical and spiritual view, it could also be true that the mankind learns from experience s. And so, the transformation of human beings from discovery of fire, to discovery of ways to set satellites on a planet, the maturity process was a destiny pre-defined for us humans. If seen holistically, this is how the growth would be. This is the only way the progress can happen and so, the pattern that evolves in years to come, also has a specific direction, that is Destiny. Some can already see it, many may never !    (image: link )

Missionaries' Mission...

Graham Staines was in India, 'helping lepers', to serve his God. He got married, bore three children and the family were all missionaries. His children were studying, not in a government school, but in the best of schools in Ooty. Obviously he earned enough to put them in such a school. After he was murdered by tribals in Orissa, his wife apparently excused the murderers! And after 14 years, she is not even able to recognize the murderers who she had seen and forgiven. Whether this is noble or not, is not easy to judge. But the root cause of this crime was their own making. Staines was a missionary from Australia. He came to India to serve lepers. He should have! He did. But he did not just serve lepers, he also converted them to Christianity. As always, a missionary will never serve without returns. Their aim is to convert by 'helping' by being 'compassionate.' They cannot disprove this. If God wanted Staines to serve lepers and cure them, God would not ask...

My first Maha Kumbh Mela - 2013

Image
Panoramic view of Triveni Sangam (meeting of rivers Ganga and Yamuna) The sheer volume of people from all over the nation, descending at Allahabad for a spiritual dip in Ganga mixed with Yamuna river at Sangam, was something to be experienced being right there. Watching it over the TV or videos on websites would not have given us the same feel of actually looking at the mammoth assembly of people.  I stayed with Chandra Mouli, my long time buddy, in Hyderabad for two days. Enjoyed hospitality of his mother and sister who packed us 4 zip locked Puliyogares for our journey. Our first hurdle was to get the confirmed tickets to Allahabad on train. Having booked online, we were put on waiting list that was around 200 initially and was down to 20 something previous night. Next morning it was WL7! and charts closed! Mouli wanted to know if we should go or drop out since no ticket means we need to go unreserved, with no hopes of getting a seat for the next 36 hours! But I thoug...
