Mon, 03 May 2010 04:33:54 +0000

Prahlad Jani – A man who is claiming not to have any food or drink since last 70 years is being held in a hospital in Ahmedabad, Gurjarat, where he is being closely monitored by India’s defence research organization, who believe he may have a genuine quality which could help save lives.

Can you imagine a person who is living without any food for last 70 yrs? Think again…

He has now spent more than 7 days without food or water under strict observation and doctors say his body has not yet shown any adverse effects from hunger or dehydration.

This man claims to have left home aged seven and lived as a wandering sadhu or holy man in Rajasthan, is regarded as a ‘breatharian‘ who can live on a ‘spiritual life-force‘ alone. He believes he is sustained by a goddess who pours an ‘elixir’ through a hole in his palate. His claims have been supported by an Indian doctor who specializes in studies of people who claim supernatural abilities, but he has also been dismissed by others as a “village fraud.”

India’s Defence Research Development Organisation, whose scientists develop drone aircraft, intercontinental ballistic missiles and new types of bombs. They believe Mr. Prahlad could teach them to help soldiers survive longer without food, or disaster victims to hang on until help arrives.

“If his claims are verified, it will be a breakthrough in medical science,” said Dr. G Ilavazhagan, director of the Defence Institute of Physiology & Allied Sciences.

“We will be able to help save human lives during natural disasters, high altitude, sea journeys and other natural and human extremities. We can educate people about the survival techniques in adverse conditions with little food and water or nothing at all.”

So far, Mr. Prahlad has not eaten or drunk any fluids in six days and similarly has not passed urine or a stool in that time. He remains fit and healthy and shows no sign of lethargy. Doctors will continue observing him for 15 days in which time they would expect to see some muscle wastage, serious dehydration, weight loss,and fatigue followed by organ failure.

Most humans cannot survive without food for 50 days. The longest hunger strike recorded is 74 days.

Let’s see till when Mr. Prahlad keep his spirit up, BTW, hope for the best. It’ll be a new record for India.

Another Tata Nano Fire Accident

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 17:36:16 +0000

See the picture and you can actually imagine the fact a new Tata Nano caught in fire.

Silver color Tata Nano No. = MH03-AW 913, with A/C and a power steering features, probably one of the top Nano model of worth 2.4 Lakh rupees burst on Express Express Highway at 3:45 pm on Monday, 22nd March’10.

Mr. Satish Sawant, an insurance agent, collected his brand new Nano car from Prabhadevi showroom and only after 45 mins, he saved himself from this accident when a motorcyclist told him about fire. Satish & his driver both jumped out the car.

This is not the 1st time, Nano is burning. Already 2-3 Nano cars have been burst. There are no comments from Ratan Tata yet but we hope to hear very soon from him or his team.

Now the questions arises:

What about people safety?
Is money less important than human’s life?

No doubt, we all are happy with cheapest car model produce in India but these types of accidents creating big questions on the reliability of Nano. What do you think people, share your views.

Bing Mobile vs Google Mobile?

Sun, 01 Nov 2009 09:43:44 +0000

: Bing vs Google Mobile

Mobile devices that need info fast without all the glamour of the standard Google site. Bing has been rising in the charts but needs to find a way to continue to grow; that’s mobile Bing.

For reminding this is a Microsoft product because the Bing team keeps present something new for users. For example, in making Bing mobile, they added some mobile-specific features that will perk interest. The first is flight information, simply go to Bing and enter in flight number and you’ll be given gate info, departure and arrival info. That is super handy for mobile users that actually are mobile as they rush across the airport.

The NFL Feature is another new feature. Simply enter the name of your team or player and you’ll receive info on schedule, standings, and while the game is on you’ll get real-time stats. Super handy for data freaks and desire.

Not a big list but the Bing team will be adding support for more devices in the near future. Bing has added a special version for mobile touchscreen devices such as iPhone, T-Mobile G1 or Samsung Omnia.

Bing Mobile might even look good on a Windows Mobile device. Used the touchscreen version of Bing mobile to search for movies and compared to the same search on Google, the Bing Mobile search was much better looking, more complete and offered trailers without any extra work. It is worth checking out and with clear, short data you may find you don’t need a full featured browser on your mobile device. You will like it.

Relation between Cell Phone and Brain Tumor – Latest Study

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 06:33:38 +0000

Relation between CellPhone and Brain Tumor

A new bit of data has emerged about the idea of cell phones and the brain tumors.

Seems that Environmental Working Group released data just recently that detailed just how much radiation you’re sucking up when you’re on the phone actually and then Los Angeles Times followed that with a strange study. Check this out:

when the data from 23 studies was pooled together, there was no conclusive link between brain tumors and cell phone usages. This by itself would be interesting if not necessarily newsworthy, but when the Times jiggered the evidence a bit, comparing data from the “eight strongest studies”, they found out that cell phone users had between a 10 to 30 percent higher chance of getting brain tumors, with the more time spent on the phone being higher risk than those who spent less.

And then, here’s the weirdest point: seven out of eight of those “strongest studies” were all conducted by the SAME GUY IN SWEDEN.

No comparison in Palm Pre, Nokia N97 & iPhone

Sat, 13 Jun 2009 09:09:20 +0000

June is really a big month for smartphones, in the past 1 week three decades biggest smartpones have launched. The Palm Pre, Apple iPhone 3GS and the Nokia N97! The Pre promises to revive Palm and put new life into the once very innovative maker, Apple unveil its fastest iTouch device ever with a major OS update and Nokia looks to create that punch in the touch screen segment with its N97.

Each one of them appeals to a different consumer and has its own strong points and ready buyers. N97, Pre and the iPhone all three have a different structure, different OS and a different market. So which one of these are you buying? Waiting for reviews comparing them? Have a look at each of them individually:

About Palm Pre: Palm ‘Pre’ is good attempt at the smartphones market, than the original iPhone or the iPhone 3G. iPhone has its own charm , it attracts people, gets usual attention and is wonderful gizmo. But the iPhone fails in some common things and that make a switch for some Blackberry user. The Pre packs in a physical QWERTY, brings in Multitasking and a great UI with multitouch. It’s the best of both worlds. Touch devices are buzzing and its a wonderful way to use any technology. Pre gets the best of touch and physical with an amazing OS/UI. , Pre is like Superman Returns.

About Nokia N97: Nokia N97 though a N-series, reminds as the communicator. An attempt made by Nokia to hit the touch market and indeed make it a iPhone killer. N97 packs in extreme features with 32GB+16GB storage, 5MP camera with DVD quality video recording and live widgets on the homescreen to present better web experience. At the similar time a sideways sliding QWERTY resembles the E90 design once open (though the mechanism is as seen in SE Xperia). Features alone did make a good gadget. Not a very little phone, bulky, studded with features and a sideways opening keyboard that is much more inconvenient to use (on the go) than a Blackberry, Palm Pre, E71 or even an iPhone. N97is a business phone made for media lovers. Mainly trying to stop the touch devices from robbery Nokia users on their side. Although the 5800 did extremely well on the price point, the N97 is Nokia’s attempt to serve the power users. All in all, the N97 retains the Nokia users … giving little competition to the iPhone.

N97: However this doesn’t fit here, as mention that Nokia makes the same error it made with the N7710. It was a full featured device in its time with FM, Touchscreen, handy design, nice camera etc. Though the processor was so slow that the usability was terrible. With 128MB ram and 434Mhz processor on a king size smartphone like the N97 makes wonder of the Symbian OS will handle the power users efficiently?

About iPhone 3GS: The 2 things redefined by Apple in the smartphones 1) Multitouch / full touch interface 2) The App Store. These were 2 masterstrokes in 2 years. Super hit, no doubt! We love the iPhone – amazing audio/video, mobile internet like never before, again a great swift OS+UI and the Apple touch in every turn. With Jail breaking and App Store apps its haven. Apple manage to present a unique powerphone feel with the iPhone, its own charm, own followers! Regular smartphone users would find it mighty difficult to adapt to Apple’s style. No Bluetooth transfer, no USB mass storage, no physical keypad/qwerty, no camera flash, proprietary chargers, cables etc. Though with an amazing OS v3.0, superb games, hardware bump, video recording and even stronger web integration with wireless goodies, Apple manages to attract its media lovers. iPhone is a beautiful and fast phone.

In a funny way, Business users would feel the iPhone as their girlfriend whereas the Blackberry as their wife! What do you guys feel about that……

MSIE 8 was released few days before and users have already busy for sending complaints to Microsoft. Although many problems were supposed to be resolved during the beta testing phase, however it seems that there are multiple issues affecting the web browser.

Lenovo’s ThinkPad W700ds Reviews

Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds: Reviews

Some of the guys have already wrapped their foot around Lenovo’s completely unorthodox W700ds, the dual-screened machine has yet to undergo a proper review… until now, however below mentioned are the reviews till today:

Laptop Mag found the fit to be expectedly dominant in all the right areas, with a silly graphics performance and a stunning display. The main 17-inch panel was nothing short of stupendous, though the pull-out 10.6-inch LCD was said to be “significantly duller and dimmer.”

Additionally, the vertical orientation wasn’t well suited for much of anything outside of sidebar applications like chat boxes, Photoshop toolbars, etc. All told, the W700ds wasn’t believed the best value in the world with an anticipated price point of around $5,000, but those with highly specialized needs might just pay the premium to make their dreams come true.
