President Stops Man Committing Suicide

December 27, 2015

A true leader is one who always thinks of public safety and problems. Proving to be a true leader, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stopped a man committing suicide on Christmas Day.

A young man named Vezir Cakras, dressed in jeans and a simple hoody, was thought to be preparing to jump when Recep Erdogan’s convoy was passing over the 211ft-tall structure (Istanbul’s Bosporos Bridge), which links Europe with Asia, after Friday prayers.

The man who appeared to be in his early 30’s had climbed over the railing and was menacing to kill himself, when Erdogan’s bodyguards requested him stop doing so and then told him that the President wanted to speak to him. It took almost two hours for them to talk the man out of committing suicide.

The staff took Vezir Cakras to President’s car. The young man had a little conversation with Erdogan through the window of his car, before kissing hand. He was said to have abandoned his car on the bridge and climbed over the side railing due to long-standing depression. The president promised Carkas to provide appropriate help.

Why Babu Chose Last Day For Chandi Yagam?

December 27, 2015

The Telangana CM KCR’s ambitious Chandi Yagam has entered into its last day. Already, lakhs of people attended this grand religious event, which is being organized by the state government for the well being of the state. KCR flew down to Amaravati and personally invited Chandrababu to the event.

Today, Chandrababu will participate in the Chandi Yagam and will offer traditional pattu vasthralu, bangles, kumkuma, prasadam after performing prayers at the Durgamma temple.

Now, what is striking about Babu attending the Yagam on the last day is that all the invites will be wearing yellow today, including the Ruthviks and sages. On the first day, everyone wore yellow, followed by pink, white, red and finally yellow and finally yellow on the last day.

Call it coincidence but Babu will be smiling all the way to see his party color splashing all-around in a historical event being organized by the pink brigade (TRS).

Even more amusing sight will be Babu, all dressed in yellow, will be performing the special puja along with KCR, who will also be dressed in yellow, the color which gave him a ride in politics until more than a decade ago.

NTR Achieves A Feat on Facebook

December 27, 2015

As we reported earlier, Young Tiger NTR is working day and night for Nannaku Prematho despite high fever as to wrap up the film soon to release it on scheduled date of January 13th. Meanwhile, the actor has achieved a rare feat. NTR’s Facebook page has crossed 2 million likes. Although NTR is not delivering right hits off late, fans are with him always and are hoping Nannaku Prematho to provide him the much needed break.

The number of likes indeed exhibits NTR fans base. But, one thing that worried NTR and Nannaku Prematho production unit is fans incessantly asked for audio launch passes on social platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

Now, after getting known about NTR unhealthy conditions, fans have stopped requesting the actor for passes. The last message NTR posted on his Facebook handle was to request his fans to donate for Chennai floods relief.

“#PrayforChennai it’s time to be humans by helping each other when nature tests our integrity. I request everyone to help the needed in the best ways possible.am gonna do mine,” reads his last post.

Except for a song, currently being shot in Hyderabad, entire production work of Nannaku Prematho is done. Post production works are also in last leg. First copy of the movie is expected on January 8th and efforts are being made to release the movie for Pongal. Hope, it happens!

Amazing new tech

December 27, 2015

It has been a year of bold moves. The planet’s biggest technology firm launched a tiny watch. Manufacturers of electronic gaming consoles are convinced virtual reality headsets are the way forward and a search engine giant has unveiled a motor car that doesn’t need a human behind the wheel. The world’s going wearable, wireless, wondrous — all at warp speed. A certain bearded Briton once suggested that we inhabitants are products of evolution. Species have adapted, changed, adjusted — devices followed a digital Darwinism too.

Machines grew smaller to fit pockets, got faster to suit schedules and more robust to match situations. Hell, your phone’s now water-proof and just in time because, boffins have figured a way to charge phones using urine. We have come far and year 2016, as far as tech is concerned, we’ll be diving into known unknowns. Efficient wearables Year 2015 saw Apple placing big bets on its Watch. The others are catching up. So, expect more efficient, cheaper watches — with better battery life, screens and hopefully, a more attractive price tag. The market for wearables has become so intense Intel’s even unveiling a reality show starring entrepreneurs vying for the $1million grand prize!

Sport apparel manufacturers such as Adidas are pouring millions just on the wrist to show cardiac capacity, performance limits etc. “Consumers don’t care what type of sensors is embedded in their wearables, but what they can learn from those sensors,” says Stacey Burr VP of wearable sports electronics at Adidas. Bear in mind, companies hope to strike gold from a market that’s expected to hit $31.27 billion by 2020 — and is all from that immediate space between your hand and the elbow. Fantastic! Virtual reality Sometime early 2016, the Oculus Rift will launch after having spent over five years and a few millions in development. So ambitious is its scope that it could well be electronic gaming’s Moon landing. The Rift will allow gamers to be ‘inside’ the game and rumours claim the landmark device will be available this year for just about $500.

But VR is not limited to unkempt gamers. Stanford University employs a surgery simulator which includes haptic feedback for those in training — one wrong move and it’s just a vibration instead of instant death. VR is also helping rehabilitate patients with cognitive damage. Thing is, the Rift’s development DNA is free for developers. Once the machine hits the mainstream, we are only limited by our imagination. Better batteries We spoke of urine being used to charge phones. Thankfully, science will not bring us to a point where we’ll need to unzip pants to continue a conversation. In 2016, expect “long-lasting” performance, “stiffer” power reserves and slower drain. Before we sound like a condom ad, consider these breakthroughs. Next year will see the release of the Alfa battery — with 40 times the capacity of lithium-ion and powered by water. Creators Fuji Pigment say a charge will last 14 days and all it needs is water. Experts are also fine-tuning traditional sources of electricity. For example, scientists have figured out a way to harness power from skin friction.

Quantum dot displays HD is long dead. The future will be all about packing as many colours as we can into a single inch of display. Quantum Dots produce a wider range of colours when hit with a special blue LED backlight. They output much more than usual LCDs. There’s already a laptop on sale that has this tech and it costs just under Rs 2 lakh. But early adopters are pricey and with a competition thrown in, we should see prices drop. And quantum dots are so flexible scientists believe these little drops of nano magic can be used in light bulbs to the imaging of cancer cells or even in the design of solar cells. The best part? Quantum dots can generate the same amount of light as LCDs using 30 per cent less power! What to watch out for in 2016 Oceans will power our homes: Blue Energy Canada says it’s close to “commercialising” turbine technologies that’ll capture energy from ocean currents and has started paperwork in countries such as India, Indonesia, and New Zealand.

The Omniprocessor: Drinking water from faeces? Backed by Bill Gates, the tech could solve our planet-sized problem of waste disposal. The machine will handle waste “from 1,00,000 people, producing up to 86,000 litres of potable water a day.” Wait for the sunscreen pill: It’s the ultimate in healthcare. The pill will take care of the eyes and the skin. The tech is based on how coral shields itself against UV rays. Scientists are closer to producing a synthetic compound which can mimic this ability. Mammoths reborn: Yup, we’ll be doing a real-life Jurassic Park. Japan’s Riken Center for Developmental Biology are of the belief that they can actually bring back the animal by using ancient DNA.

Red flags over Turkey-China weapons deal

December 27, 2015

As tensions in West Asia and Ukraine rose in recent years, Turkey moved to jointly manufacture a sophisticated missile defence system. The $3.4 billion plan would have given Turkey’s military more firepower and laid the foundation to start exporting missiles. But Turkey abruptly abandoned the plan just weeks ago in the face of strong opposition from its allies in NATO. Concerns in NATO Their main objection: Turkey’s partner, a state-backed Chinese company. Western countries feared a loss of military secrets if Chinese technology were incorporated into Turkey’s air defences.

As one of its highest economic and foreign policy goals, China has laid out an extensive vision for close relations with Turkey and dozens of countries that were loosely connected along the Silk Road more than 1,000 years ago by land and seaborne trade. But Beijing’s effort to revive ancient trade routes, a plan known as the Belt and Road Initiative, is causing geopolitical strains, with countries increasingly worried about becoming too dependent on China.

With the missile deal, Turkey was turning toward China partly to reduce its reliance on NATO. “Our national interest and NATO’s may not be the same for some actions,” said Ismail Demir, Turkey’s undersecretary for national defence. But the deal immediately raised red flags in the West. Besides the technology issues, the Chinese supplier, the China Precision Machinery Import Export Corp., was the target of Western sanctions for providing ballistic missile technology to Iran, North Korea, Pakistan and Syria. So Turkish exports based on a partnership with China Precision could have also been subject to sanctions.

Complicating matters, China and Russia are close allies on many issues. Russia is especially distrusted in Turkey because of its military intervention in Syria and its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. And Turkey had been a close U.S. ally ever since it sent a large contingent of troops to fight North Korea and China during the Korean War. Ethnic issues have further complicated China’s relations. Many countries in the region are Muslim, and versions of Turkish are spoken in more than a dozen countries, partly a legacy of the Ottoman Empire. That history has fanned regional tensions over Beijing’s stringent policies toward the Uighurs, Muslims in China’s Xinjiang region who speak a Turkic language. Beijing has blamed Uighurs for a series of attacks on Han Chinese from eastern China.

When China suppressed Uighur protests in 2009, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Turkish Prime Minister at the time, condemned the actions as “a kind of genocide.” Last July, Turks and Uighurs held two rounds of protests in Istanbul and Ankara. Technology sharing Now the President of Turkey, Mr. Erdogan is prioritising ties with China. He calmed the anti-Chinese protests last summer by urging his countrymen to be wary of rumours on social media about China’s treatment of the Uighurs. Turkish military analysts compared a long list of variables, like missile range and the willingness to share technology and manufacturing. The analysis was approved by a committee including the Defence Minister, generals and Mr. Erdogan, Mr. Demir said.

Within days of the announcement about China’s leading bid, NATO member countries organised a campaign to overturn the decision. President Barack Obama, Western European heads of state and top NATO commanders contacted Turkish leaders. NATO officials have been cautious, saying any country has a right to choose its own equipment. But they have publicly expressed concern that Chinese missiles might not be compatible with NATO equipment — and privately that they were loath to share technical details to make compatibility possible.

KCR to fulfill Ramoji’ costly dream

December 27, 2015

It’s a dream come true for media mogul Ramoji Rao, as Telangana government has decided to assign 505 acres for his dream project- Om City which is estimated to cost around Rs 3,000 crore. The Ranga Reddy district administration has already sent proposals to the revenue department for final approval to allot the land spread over Abdullapur, Koheda and Surmaiguda villages in Hayatnagar mandal.

The government will fix value for the land being allotted when approving the proposal. Om City has been planned as a spiritual city in about 2,000 acres land near Ramoji Film City in Hayatnagar mandal that will include replicas of 108 famous temples of the country, a theme park, film theatres that screen only spiritual movies, hotels and functions halls.

It may be recalled that, Ramoji Rao met KCR this April and presented a book containing the project details. The chief minister assured all help for the spiritual city. Ramoji Rao had also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and presented the album on the proposed city. Once completed, it is expected to attract about Rs 2 lakh visitors every day.

Director Of the Year

December 27, 2015

There is only one name that comes to the mind when we speak about the director of the year. Hands down it is Rajamouli that has changed the dynamics of Telugu cinema with his grand vision. Rajamouli’s Baahubali not only won the hearts of Telugu audience it has become a rage across the nation and overseas too.

Bollywood media and Northies who generally look down on South cinema were amazed to see such visual splendor in a regional cinema. Baahubali has pushed the boundaries of Indian cinema standards by a mile. No one in the Indian cinema history has envisioned such a spectacle until Baahubali.

Movie lovers were awestruck with those grand visuals that they made it one of the biggest hits in the history of Indian cinema. Rajamouli has set higher benchmarks for himself and Baahubali 2 as Baahubali exceeded everybody’s expectations.

Rajamouli has done it before and there are no doubts on his capabilities of making the second part a much bigger hit. Rajamouli is now considered as the biggest superstar of Telugu cinema. Even Mahesh Babu admitted it saying Rajamouli is the current number one in Tollywood.
