Captain Kırk wants first one. "Set a course for Starbase 27..."

Celalettin Turkar (48), an elementary school teacher in
Şebinkarahisar district of Giresun province, had obtained a
patent by designing a rocket that is powered from above,
contrary to normal practice.  Turkar will introduce his invention,
at the invitation of the Turkish Patent Institute, at the 2016
International Istanbul Invention Fair, between 3 and 6 March
2016.

A graduate of Istanbul University's Maritime Products Faculty,
Turkar could not find work in his field so he became a teacher.
Twenty years ago during an experiment he discovered the "internal
thrust" rule, explaining that "I was doing an experiment in science
class with a tube when all of a sudden the tube flew backwards,
contrary to the laws of physics.  I tried to figure out what had
happened and discovered that because of an internal thrust, the gas
inside made the tube fly at great speed."

Based on this discovery, Turkar worked for two years to get a
patent for his space ship.  He said that "two weeks ago the Patent
Institute approved the invention and said there was no other like
it in the world. I proved that Turks can invent things."

As opposed to other rockets, Turkar's can reach into space without
a great number of fuel tanks and moves thanks to the internal thrust.
Also, it can find its path without the need of wings, speed up in
space and land back on Earth easily and without risk.

Elektriğini kendin üret
         Everyone's personal electric company.

Manoj Bhargava, the CEO of Living Essentials company, says
his company has developed a bicycle that can produce enough
electricity by peddling for one hour to light a house, run a fan
and charge phones and tablets for 24 hours.  The device is called
"Free Electric" and it was developed from normal bicycle parts.
Any bicycle repairman can fix it, too.

Next month 25 of the cycles will be distributed to villages in
Utter Pradeş state of India and the plan is to have 10,000 of
the cycles in use throughout Indıa by the third quarter of this
year.  The price is based on the consumer's ability to pay and
ranges from 250 to 1,200 USD.
