Busy bee Raashi Khanna has moved into new home. Apparently, Raashi searched for over month for the perfect space and finally she found one that she love. She recently moved into this new house and still sorting out her new house.

Raashi is now preparing to do customary house warming puja followed by a party to her friends, family. What’s more? Raashi’s family who are currently staying in Delhi are going to shift their base and stay with Raashi in this new house in Hyderabad.

Raashi Khanna might have made a splashy presence alongside John Abraham in Madras Cafe. But it’s Telugu movies which embraced her with open hands and changed her fate. Now Raashi wants to return back and decided to make Hyderabad as her permanent home.

The Jil actress says, “It’s been one-and-a-half year now I’m shooting and staying in Hyderabad. I’m tired of staying at hotels, living out of suitcases.” While her Bengal Tiger is due for release, Raashi signed another film Supreme with Sai Dharam Tej.

High on the stupendous success of Kumari 21F, Tollywood’s hotshot music director Devi Sri Prasad claims that he’s being approached by all the leading producers in the Telugu and Tamil film industries. However, this sudden rush from producers is not rope in DSP to score music for their films but to launch him as a hero.

During his latest promotional interview following Kumari 21F success, DSP revealed that he has been getting more offers to launch his debut from Tamil producers than the Telugu biggies. DSP said star producers like Dil Raju, Allu Aravind, Ashwini Dutt in Tollywood and Kalaipuli S Thanu and Gnanavel Raja are the prominent producers who are willing to launch him as a hero.

However, DSP lamented that even though he has been listening to many stories he is not satisfied as those stories didn’t suit his body language. DSP reiterated that he will make his acting debut only when he finds the right script. The rockstar also said he would compose music for his own films as a hero.

Where does Islamic State get money from?

Even as the United Nations has authorised member countries to do more to combat the Islamic State (IS), one of the key challenges the world powers would face in the war would be to choke the funding of the jihadist group. The group, which has established a proto-state in the self-proclaimed ‘Caliphate’ that stretches from the suburbs of Damascus to the outskirts of Baghdad comprising 8 to 10 million people, is one of the best funded terror outfits in the world. It has a religious police in the ‘Caliphate’ and is also running schools, food points and other administrative centres. Besides, it is fighting a protracted war on its borders against several enemies — the Iraqi and Syrian national armies, rebel forces and other jihadist groups such as Jabbat al-Nusra. According to The Economist, IS fighters are paid around $400 a month, better than an average Iraqi soldier. Where does the money come from for all these operations? Donors’ money Usually terror organisations are run on money they receive from international donors. The IS is also getting money through this channel.

According to a Washington Post report, the IS received up to $40 million in 2013-14 from businessmen, wealthy families and other donors in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and the UAE. Last week, Kuwaiti authorities had arrested six men who were allegedly belonging to an IS cell in the Gulf country. The authorities say they were involved in recruiting, providing logistics and funding for the terror group, which, if proved true, would substantiate the theory that cash is flowing from the Gulf into the coffers of the IS. But unlike other terror groups, the IS is not only dependent on international donors for revenues. Ever since it captured the eastern Syrian city of Raqqa in 2013, the IS has expanded its financial muscles along with its military capabilities. According to the Rand Corporation, the IS’s total revenue rose from a little less than $1 million a month in 2008-2009 (when it was called the Islamic State in Iraq) to perhaps $1 million to $3 million a day in 2014.One of the means of revenues was tax collection in the ‘Caliphate’. According to some estimates, the group charges retail stores about $2 a month in taxes. A report by Thomson Reuters estimates that extortion and taxation by the IS could fetch the group around $360 million a year.

The group has also made millions from kidnappings. According to some estimates, the jihadist group has made at least 20 million in 2014 through kidnapping for ransom alone. The IS has also looted banks in Iraqi cities that fell to its hands. Mosul was a case in point. When it captured Iraq’s second largest city in June 2014, jihadists ran over the city’s central bank looting $429 million, Nineveh governor Atheel al-Nujaifi had said then. The IS has also set up a Ministry of Antiquities whose main job is to sell precious and historical artefacts in black market and generate cash, according to Al Monitor. Single largest source But the group’s single largest source of income is oil trade. The group controls six of Syria’s 10 oil fields, including the big Omar facility, and at least four small fields in Iraq, including those at Ajeel and Hamreen, according to Maplecroft, a risk management firm. A recent Financial Times report stated that the group has established a network of oil trade starting from the production fields to the end user in and around the ‘Caliphate.’ The report puts the IS’s daily revenue from oil trade at $1.5 million. They sell oil to independent traders at the oil fields who will get it refined in the mobile or local rudimentary refineries established in Iraq and Syria and then the refined product would be taken either to the IS-controlled or private oil markets or to the neighbouring countries such as Turkey where traders would buy it.

The judgment day to the first major test of Telangana CM KCR’s popularity among his people is here. A total number of 23 candidates are trying their luck in the Warangal by-election, but TRS is leading the pack with the Congress, BJP and YSRCP failing to even give a modest competition.

The  counting for the Warangal by-election is on since 8 am this morning and the counting will be carried out in 20 rounds which will seal the mandate of 15 lakh voters. At the end of 5 rounds, the TRS candidate Pasunoori Dayakar (122157 votes) is leading over Congress’ Survey Satyanarayana (15853 votes) with a huge majority of more than 1,06,304 votes. While the BJP candidate Pagidipati Devaiah gained 12,739 votes and YSRCP’s Nalla Suryaprakash earned just 2155 votes.

In all the 7 Assembly segments, TRS’ candidate P. Dayakar is racing ahead  and the party’s might is especially evident in the Warangal West, Warangal East, Palakurthi, Parakala, Vardhannapeta constituencies, where the party gained votes more than the Congress, BJP and YSRCP together.

Latest results until the 15th round:

At the end of the counting of 15 rounds, TRS candidate Pasunoori Dayakar is leading the race with 5,20,754 votes registering a record majority of nearly 3.7 lakhs. This majority much higher than Kadiam Srihari’s record in the last year’s elections.

While Congress secured a distant second spot with 1,32,497 votes, BJP  lost deposit with 1,09,044 votes. On the other hand, YSRCP’s situation is worse as the party is competing with the NOTA votes.

Power devices wirelessly from your existing Wi-Fi router

Seattle: Research work on using a Wi-Fi router as a source of untapped energy — anchored by an Indian doctoral student in the University of Washington — has been judged to be one of the most innovative and game-changing technologies of 2015, by Popular Science magazine. It has been included in the magazine’s annual “Best of What’s New 2015” awards announced two days ago. The University team led by electrical engineering doctoral student Vamsi Talla used ambient signals from a Wi-Fi router to power sensors in a low-resolution camera and other devices. Talla is an alumnus of Delhi Public, Panipat Refinery and IIT Guwahati. The technology made headlines earlier this year when researchers published an online paper showing how they harvested energy from Wi-Fi signals to power a simple temperature sensor, a low-resolution grayscale camera and a charger for a Jawbone activity tracking bracelet. (See IndiaTechOnline story) The final paper will be presented in December at the Association for Computing Machinery’s CoNEXT 2015 conference in Heidelberg, Germany, on emerging networking experiments and technologies. “For the first time we’ve shown that you can use Wi-Fi devices to power the sensors in cameras and other devices,” says Talla, “We also made a system that can co-exist as a Wi-Fi router and a power source — it doesn’t degrade the quality of your Wi-Fi signals while it’s powering devices.”

PoWi-Fi could help enable development of the Internet of Things, where small computing sensors are embedded in everyday objects like cell phones, coffee makers, washing machines, air conditioners, mobile devices, allowing those devices to “talk” to each other. But one major challenge is how to energize those low-power sensors and actuators without needing to plug them into a power source as they become smaller and more numerous. The team of UW computer science and electrical engineers found that the peak energy contained in untapped, ambient Wi-Fi signals often came close to meeting the operating requirements for some low-power devices. But because the signals are sent intermittently, energy “leaked” out of the system during silent periods. The team fixed that problem by optimizing a router to send out superfluous “power packets” on Wi-Fi channels not currently in use — essentially beefing up the Wi-Fi signal for power delivery — without affecting the quality and speed of data transmission. The team also developed sensors that can be integrated in devices to harvest the power. In their proof-of-concept experiments, the team demonstrated that the PoWi-Fi system could wirelessly power a grayscale, low-power Omnivision VGA camera from 17 feet away, allowing it to store enough energy to capture an image every 35 minutes. It also re-charged the battery of a Jawbone Up24 wearable fitness tracker from zero to 41 percent in 2.5 hours.

The researchers also tested the PoWi-Fi system in six homes. Users typically didn’t notice deterioration in web page loading or video streaming experiences, showing the technology could successfully deliver power via Wi-Fi in real-world conditions without degrading network performance. Although initial experiments harvested relatively small amounts of power, the UW team believes there’s opportunity for make the PoWi-Fi system more efficient and robust. “In the future, PoWi-Fi could leverage technology power scaling to further improve the efficiency of the system to enable operation at larger distances and power numerous more sensors and applications,” said co-author Shyam Gollakota, assistant professor of computer science and engineering. The research is funded by the National Science Foundation, Qualcomm and the UW. Co-authors include UW electrical engineering doctoral students Bryce Kellogg and Saman Naderiparizi, research associate Benjamin Ransford and associate professor of computer science & engineering and of electrical engineering Joshua Smith.

Logic Is Definitely Not Her Forte

Kavitha_T-Jagruthi

One family that can be credited with driving a permanent wedge between the Telugus is the ‘Kalavakuntla’ family. And they will probably stoke the fire of hatred against the Andhras as long as they exist in politics because that is the only way they know to come to power and retain it. Water issues, power sharing, fee reimbursement etc are issues between AP and Telangana and one can understand it if Telangana complains against AP or vice-versa. But crying foul against AP over central allotment is nothing short of ridiculous. TRS MP Kavitha, the great leader says that the Centre is discriminating against Telangana and showing favoritism towards AP.

She says that AP has got an obscene number of houses allotted under the urban development scheme compared to Telangana. The MP would do well to remember that Rajasthan which is a BJP ruled state has also been allotted lesser number of houses than AP. And did KCR himself the other day not make a public statement saying that the houses being built under the Central government scheme were of inferior and substandard quality compared to his 2BHK palaces? Why cry over it then? And here comes the biggest joke of all! She is angry that the Center has not announced either a special status or a special package to Telangana even 16 months after coming to power. One the one hand, her dad says that Telangana is the only revenue surplus state in the country after Gujarat and here she is crying for special status.

Special status, my dear lady, is given to needy states, states with a revenue crunch. And further, she says that the NDA has not sanctioned even a single higher educational institute to Telangana while AP has been given many. How many top educational institutes are located in Hyderabad and has AP not lost out on them all? Does AP have even 1/10th of the super-specialty hospitals located in Hyderabad? Where is the logic to her comments? But then, how can one expect logic from a person who despite being a Member of Parliament says that Telangana and Kashmir were independent states forcibly inducted into the Indian Union and that the travails of both states started since then?

Director Sukumar who was down and out with the failure of 1-Nenokkadine seems to have hit back with Kumari 21F. Thanks to Kumari 21F, the director-writer is back in reckoning with both the audiences and industry people. He received calls from all the big stars in the industry on his success and NTR even threw a special party for him. Sukumar was worrying the image of ‘flop director’ all these days though he was busy shooting NTR’s Nannaku Prematho.

He desperately wanted this movie to be successful or his creative ideas would be questioned by one and all. Thanks to this success, he is now set to commence the new schedule of Nannaku Prematho with renewed energy. On the other hand, he is also planning to announce another movie on his banner introducing one of his close friends as director.

Aamir Joins ‘Intolerance’ Debate

NEW DELHI: Actor Aamir Khan today joined the debate on the growing ‘intolerance’ and said he has been “alarmed” by a number of incidents, and that his wife Kiran Rao even suggested that they should probably leave the country. “As an individual, as part of this country as a citizen, we read in the papers what is happening, we see it on the news and certainly, I have been alarmed. I can’t deny. I have been alarmed by a number of incidents,” Mr Khan said while speaking at the Ramnath Goenka Excellence in Journalism Awards. The 50-year-old actor said he also feels that the sense of fear and insecurity has been growing.

“When I chat with Kiran at home, she says, ‘Should we move out of India?’ That’s a disastrous and big statement for Kiran to make. She fears for her child. She fears what the atmosphere around us will be. She feels scared to open the newspapers every day,” he said. “That does indicate that there is this sense of growing disquiet, there is growing despondency apart from alarm.” Underscoring the importance of the stance taken by political leaders, Mr Khan said, “People who are our elected representatives, state or centre… we look upon these people to take a strong stance, to make a strong statement, speed up the legal process”. The sense of insecurity grows “when we don’t see that happening,” he added.

Mr Khan endorsed the move by scientists, writers and filmmakers, who had come under fire from a section for returning their awards to register their protest. For creative people, it is important to voice what they feel, he said. Asked if he endorsed the protests by the people, Mr Khan said he would as long as it was non-violent, as “all individuals have a right to protest and they can protest in any manner that they feel is right as long as they are not taking the law into their hands.”
