Indian origin boy wins 'Young Scientist' award May 18, 2015 16:08

18-year-old Indian origin boy is being awarded the prestigious Intel Foundation ‘Young Scientist’ Award for inventing a device that can quickly shut down undersea oil spills. Karan Jerath of Friendswood, Texas, won USD 50,000 top prize on Friday at this year's Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (IISEF). He was one of the five students selected for the Intel and Indo-US Science and Technology Forum Visit to India Award. Jerath has won the prize for designing a sturdy device that can collect the oil, gas and water spewing from a broken well on the sea floor. “Sensors inside the 350-ton device would measure the temperature, pressure and density of the mix of gases and fluids erupting from a well.” “A computer would then calculate how valves in the gadget should be adjusted so that the gas and oil can be collected. That should stop a spill in its tracks. The device could help prevent an ecological catastrophe. It also would reduce cleanup costs,” Jerath said. Maya Ajmera, head of the Society for Science and the Public that conducts the IISEF, congratulated the winners and said, “These talented young students are the problem solvers and innovators of their generation.” By Premji

On her way to praise the people who supported her party to dominate the elections, she fired on the CPM, BJP and their ideology of bandh culture. She said, “During CPM rule 78 lakh mandays were lost due to bandhs. We brought it down to zero. We appeal to people to defeat the bandh culture” in her twiier handler. She encouraged the party workers by saying, “Trinamool is a family. We are a joint family. People are our assets” and she also advocated for state funded elections to curb the over expenditures. She has dedicated the victory to Rabindra Nath Tagore and tweeted, “People have the final say in democracy”. -kannamsai

Viswanathan now has his name among the stars. Literally! April 03, 2015 14:18

A planet discovered in 1988 was unnamed all these days, until Micahel Rudenko, a minor planet committee member and chess buff, decided to finally give it a name. It is now called ‘Vishyanand’. Rudenko said, "My two passions in life are astronomy and chess. I thought it might be appropriate to name a minor planet in honor of a chess grandmaster. My thoughts at once turned to Viswanathan Anand who, in addition to being the fifteenth world chess champion, is also an astronomy buff.” The privellege of naming the plant generally goes to the discoverer, but if it remains unnamed for 10 years, then the final call is in the hands of the Minor Planet’s Association.Vishyanand is located between Mars and Jupiter. Minor Planet 4538, as it was called before being named Vishyanand, was discovered by Kenzo Suzuki in Toyota, Japan. Anand now joins a select club of chess players to have a planet named after them. Only two players – Alexander Alekhine and Anatoly Karpov – have been bestowed with this honour. Among other sporting heroes, Anand joins the likes of Donald Bradman, Jesse Owens, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal to have this unique privilege. - Manohar. M
