Chinese Farmer Builds Robot Army

July 21, 2011 Leave a comment

Hi,
Yesterday I saw a progrm on Discovery about the Chinese farmer who builds robot army.I found his work amazing.
A Chinese farmer with very little education has built 26 robots over the past 30 years. His love and obvious talent for technology has inspired him to design these robots and build them literally from scrap materials.

Wu Yulu, 46, has been thinking about building robots from the time he was eleven years of age. While sitting on his doorstep watching villagers pass by, he came up with the idea of building a machine that walks like a man.

After suffering a series of life changing set backs such as a burnt down home,
spraying himself with battery acid, and experiencing great financial debt – all in the name of art,
chinese farmer wu yulu is finally gaining some recognition for his inventions of homemade
robots.
Robot
I found the above Robot pretty amazing.It drive the Discovery panel person,Paul.

High Bone Fever caused by Cauliflower – A FALSE RUMOR!

July 13, 2011 10 comments

Hi,
Never before did Cauliflower grab our attention so much as it did in the past few days! An SMS about it made it the talk of the talk of the town for quiet some time now(I got the SMS yesterday,so for sake of curiosity I googled, I got the result as yet another flasr rumor). Recently there was an SMS circulated which stated that the consumption of this particular vegetable may cause a rare disease known as High Bone Fever [HBF]. No one knew of this before nor did any one hear of such a thing. It was said that this message is being spread by the doctors of AIIMS, Delhi. But soon we were relieved by the AIIMS doctors themselves that there’s no such disease as High Bone Fever known to the medical science and that a false rumor was being spread.
Earlier too 7Up Nimbooz, a product of Pepsico was called the cause of HBF. Even at that time it was the AIIMS doctors got us out from the ignorance and proved it wrong.
So I would like to tell everybody that, don’t send such SMS without verification,as poor Cauliflower is not going to tell everybody its important & innocence :)
