Armed & ScentedThe Policemen in Gujarat, India sure have been working lately, working on their delectable side that is. No longer will you find the haggard, gruff, sweaty cop patrolling about becasue more than 8000 of  these uniformed guys are out to beat the heat in their new snazzy ‘scented’ uniforms.. The ingenious, au courant creations are specially designed by India’s National Institute of Design (NID) and are expected to be put to use by the end of the year(not really summer time then)

So the next time you get stopped for speeding, don’t be surprised if your senses are tickled with fresh whiffs of rose or lemon or maybe jasmine…well, look on the bright side, atleast now being asked to pull over or getting a ticket will become a more pleasant experience!! :)   



{April 14, 2007}   “I Spy” with a Fly?!?!

images1.jpg Even James Bond would be thrilled to know that a new beagle bug (literally!) has been created that actually has miniscule cameras fitted into teeny weeny machine bugs (courtesy Pentagon).

These little babies weigh just up to 10 gms and sport wings measuring just 7.5 cms! With proportions like that, there’s  no nook or corner that can’t accomodate this mini spy.  Amusingly, it is programmed to mimic a fly (minus the bugging buzzz sound) but the designers think that modeling it like a bee would give it a faster wing stroke of 275 beats per second. Its trial flight is scheduled sometime mid 2008, where? that’s not disclosed, atleast not yet..it wouldn’t be much of a spy then would it? ;)

Are we safe anymore,? It was bad enough being wary about suspicious folks, now it’s time to be on the look out for suspicious bugs as well!

Whoa!! watch out people, no pest control is gonna stop this ‘bug’ ger!!
