A mechanical Vaccuum.
One of the ideas that i have is that of creating a light hand held and mechanical vaccum cleaner.
Most vaccum cleaners available in the market are electrical.but in India electricity is not a thing you can rely upon.also the major type of thing that needs to be cleaned up
is dust coz we don't have much of paved roads.
I thought about it and googled a bit too.
I found out that vaccum cleaners work on basis of bernouli's principle.In side the cleaner we have a strong current of air,hence less air pressure.
Out side air pressure is more.Hence things are sucked in from outside.
The most common principle of creating a high pressure is using a rotating disc with blades(just like a kiddy picture of sun).The whole disc moves and thus the velocity of air increases.
Replicating it,what we want to create is a system of gears which allows us to rotate the disc at high speed but with minimal effort.
I don't know how to do it.Do you?
Well said it is"in details lie all the miseries".
Keep trying.

Beg to differ
Here's a dose of objectivity :
It is not always technically possible to do all the stuff u said with robots.
A standard moon rover can go at a maximum of around 2km/hr easily outstripped by any fit human.
Secondly assembling stuff requires a lot of precession. On the IST they use a Canada Arm and I assure you, they dont come cheap. Most indegionous robotics would find it hard to remotely hammer a nail.
India as of now only has the capacity to launch Polar sattelites with certainty (2 successive GSLV tests have failed). Polar orbits are a complicated matter and the region is crowded with many sattelites (space traffic if u like). There is no way to launch an enormous survellaince net without causing global tension.
Currently a profitable proposition would be surveying the moon for minerals.
In conclusion sending an Indian to the moon may not be woth the money but sending a robot and producing truly original work, certainly would not be a lot easier.

Suggestions for better democracy.
Every party which is going to run for say minimum of 300 seats out of some 550+ seats in Lok Sabha elections, should before election declare there prime-minister candidate. And those who are in no position to nominate there PM candidate, which means that they are running for less than 300 seats, have to before hand support any of the Prime minister candidate. It would certainly tell us the people a clear picture of future, and thus make it easy to select candidate of our region. It will thus make parties answerable to public beforehand. It must also be made necessary for every candidate to (on there own money) publish their biodata in at least 2 popular local dailies.
I also feel that there must be some legal paper signed just like contracts between two parties before an alliance, which should be made public, and this must be done before election, so that people who vote should have a clear picture of parties and people for whom they are going to vote. This will avoid development of any future crap. And a much stable democratic structure. I think we should make democracy for our need and should break away from a highly borrowed up democratic system. India is a very unique nation, which absorbed democracy like no other nation that too after long autocratic rule. If any person comes up and say that India is failure in terms of a democracy then I would ask him to visit India, a nation of such a magnum opus society, with such a variety of cultures available, and with a very long history.
These are few potpourri views, which will only work better if reviewed by many others. So I will love to read comments on it.

A new addition...
OK, so why am I writing this post? I am not writing this to congratulate ourselves for our new found activeness but to inform you about a major addition or to say a major change in site.
Look towards right...
Yes the Creative Commons logo, so now on our blog is under creative license, you all can read it in detail. But if any one of you want to post some thing under a different agreement they you are free to do so, but please don't forget to mention it in bolds. I with my sincere heart would appreciate if you follow the open source regime, but I also agree that few things just cant be kept open source, so be it.
We Indians from long time have followed the regime of open source, this can be seen from the number of effective patents against over names. Jokes apart, here we are and now looking towards a much brighter future.
_____________________________________________________________________
Another addition to mention, again look towards your right and scroll down. Yes a facility for users to interact with us, its a voice commenting facility. I think its cool.
Looking forward for your comments, oral ones.
Fighting Nothingity.
Nothinity will bring red lines in MS Word, to indicate that there is no such word, but I think I can bring some of crap in already craped up english, to make it according to my taste.
Fighting nothinity.
Fighting the lark of golden light,
Amazing visions blinding me in dark.
Thoughts in flow shall stand tall,
I am being pressed against the wall.
War cry is what i hear every day,
Typhoons and tycoons are looting us away.
I want to fight them out,
Presently I am stalled, stalled till death.
Fight, fight is cry from every corner,
Fight fight, is the music i hear.
Fight, fight is what i shy from.
But still i will fight nothingity.
This state, state of hell,
no money, no kebabs and finding driest well.
Still i will win, is cry from soul.
After fighting i will leave it around the door.
If you like ant single line of the poem then please do mention it. I will certainly love appreciation.

Society (1)
A school of fish -- never blinking, mouths opening and closing all the while, swimming about in tightly-knit groups, trying to not get eaten by bigger fish.
A school --
They teach us --
"Always keep your eyes open and on your target; blink and it'll be gone"
So, they teach us to not blink.
"Speak up! Else, someone else will speak up and usurp your position in Society!"
So, they teach us to open and close our mouths, perpetually.
"One who cannot live in Society is either a SAVAGE BEAST or GOD -- most often the former one"
So, they teach us to despise being alone -- find a group or perish.
Q. I'm a son and a brother; can anyone usurp my positions as these?
A. You speak of your position in Family. Society bears a semblance to Family, yes; but the similarity ends there. The qualities possessed by Family may never be possessed by Society.
Q. Society means a group of individuals living together with mutual understanding -- this definition fits a family too...
A. Mutual understanding? No. Your definition is specific to a certain type of Society -- 'harmonious Society'
When more questions shall be asked, more answers shall be given.
This is not to say that all these answers are 'right' or anything of that sort; this is merely a discussion. You are welcome to join in.

Manned mission on moon.
India is planning for a manned mission on moos for year 2020, China is targeting 2024, Malasiya 2020 and Pakistan 2020. Pretty nice isnt it. Hindi Chini Pakistani bhai bhai on moon. Bull s#!t.
There is one fact that I know, US gained far less things on moon from Neil Armstrong then they are gaining from Mars Roover. Be intelligent, this is no cold war era, there is no need to prove any thing.
I would, as all ways give kattak suggestions.
- Invest money on detective satellites, for global surveillance. Because whole world need proof for you know who…and what…
- Invest money on robotic mission.
- Make a base over there on moon, which can run for a decade.
- Plan for a telescope on moon.
- Plan for a robotic biological lab on moon containing microbes to test for life sustainability under controlled environment.
Let me tell you and all the scientists in ISRO, above options are far more respectful than a manned mission on moon, at least scientific community and future generation will respect our acts. Above options will have far more far reaching effects than a 2 hour walk of man on moon surface.
Another suggestion…
[/pj]Why not make a all religion worship place over there on moon for future generation and aliens who fear to come down on earth.[/pj]
