Future of e-security industry
Future of e-Security industry
From the normal selling of products to storing important informations about the company, everything is being done online.So, its very important to protect these informations from being hacked for misuse. Therefore the jobs relating to security developing, retrieval of the hacked information and finding the hacker and security maintenance for banks, governments and firms will be in high demand in the fore-coming years. However the work tension would also be very high in these type of jobs.
Strange Modern Medical Treatments
Strange Modern Medical Treatments
1. Maggot Therapy:
A
historically favored treatment stemming from World War One, maggots have
been known to treat gangrene, bone infections and infected gunshot
wounds given its ability to cure bacteria strains faster than most other
alternatives. Today, the common green-bottle fly maggots are used to
eat dead tissues and can help save limbs from amputation.
2. Leeches:
The use of
leeches in medicine was officially approved in 2004 and is known to be
effective in treating abscesses, painful joints, glaucoma, rheumatic
diseases, some venous diseases and thrombosis. Leeches can also be used
to help restore blood circulation to veins or body parts that have been
reattached.
3. Blood Letting:
Bloodletting
is a way of withdrawing large quantities of blood from a patient to
cure or prevent illness and disease. It has been in use since the late
19th century, and is still in use today to rid a patient of excess iron
or red blood cells.
4. Fecal Bateriotherapy:
Fecal
bacteriotherapy is a treatment that comes in the form of a series of
liquid enemas and is used to cure inflammatory bowel disorders. The
bizarre part is the way in which the liquid enema is created – through
the use of a poop donor, who, oddly enough, donates his or her own
feces. The healthy bacterium from the poop donor’s feces helps the
infected patient.

8 Probable Teams to enter into the Quarter finals
8 Probable Teams to enter into the Quarter finals
1. New Zealand:
3. Srilanka:
4. England:
1. India:
2. South Africa:
3. Ireland:
4. West Indies:
Group A:
1. New Zealand:
With four back to back victories, they stand right at the top of the group A table with an impressive net run rate of 3.589 .They would enter into the quarter finals.But the problem for them would be that the their first match away from home would be an eliminator. They have to adapt to the slightly changed conditions (in Australia) in order to get to the finals.(would top the table with 12 points).
2. Australia:
In their 3 games they won:1 lost:1 nr:1. But it was a close match between Australia and New Zealand, which was won by the black caps by 1 wicket in a thrilling manner. Australia would be worried about the their match between Bangladesh which got washed off in which they would have won. Barring the weather issues, if they win all their 3 remaining games they would enter into the qf (ranking 2nd in their group with 9 points).
3. Srilanka:
They are silently gaining the points and creeping up the points table. So far of their 3 matches they have won 2 and are currently ranked 2nd in he group A table. They would be able to defeat England and Scotland in their upcoming matches. The possibilities for their loss against Australia are higher. So they may enter into the qf with 8 points & finishing as 3rd in the group.
4. England:
Their condition is really pathetic. Their bowling has not been good in this world cup. Captain Eoin Morgan should take up the responsibility to take their team safe to the shore countering the tides. England might enter the qf with 6 points and finishing as 4rth in the group.
Group B:
1. India:
They weren't the favorites. But, the team which had faced only the defeats for the past 2 months has come back strongly with 3 great victories against Pakistan, South Africa and UAE. In the form they are in they would enter the qf finishing at the top of the table with 12 points.
2. South Africa:
Entering into the tournament as favorites, the proteas have been doing well in the tournament so far. With a number of potential match winners in their team like AB de villiers, David Miller and Steyn they are definite to enter into the qf with 10 points and finishing as 2nd in the group.
3. Ireland:
You wouldn't have expected this team to do this well in the world cup 2015. They had defeated the WI. They have a better chance to enter the qf of this WC with 8 points and finishing as 3rd in the group.
4. West Indies:
They were defeated by Ireland in their WC opener. But they eventually notched up 2 victories and suffered a humiliating defeat to South Africa by 257 runs. But if they click as a unit they can get a qf berth (with 6 points and finishing as 4rth in the group).
Breathing is the key for weight loss
The lungs are the primary excretory organ in weight loss, according to the researchers.
Prof. Andrew Brown and Ruben Meerman reported widespread misconception regarding how weight is lost, finding physicians, dietitians and personal trainers all equally guilty of not knowing. Most believed that fat is converted to energy or heat, "which violates the law of conservation of mass," they write.
Others believed that fat could be excreted within feces or converted to muscle. These responses may well have provoked gasps from Brown and Meerman, who have now formulated a calculation to illustrate how we actually "lose weight."
Excess dietary carbohydrates and protein are converted to a type of fat called triglyceride. When people attempt to lose weight, they are attempting to metabolize these triglycerides while keeping their fat-free mass intact, explain the authors.
Triglycerides are comprised of three types of atom: carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Triglyceride molecules can be broken down only by unlocking these atoms, through a process known as oxidation.
Tracking the atoms
The researchers chose to follow the path of these atoms when leaving the body. They found that when 10 kg of fat were oxidized, 8.4 kg were converted and excreted as carbon dioxide (CO2) via the lungs, and 1.6 kg became water (H20).In order for 10 kg of human fat to be oxidized, the researchers calculated that 29 kg of oxygen must be inhaled. Oxidation then produces a total of 28 kg of CO2 and 11 kg of H20.
"None of this biochemistry is new," say the authors, "but for unknown reasons it seems nobody has thought of performing these calculations before. The quantities make perfect sense but we were surprised by the numbers that popped out."
The results suggest that the lungs are the main excretory organ for weight loss, with the H20 produced by oxidation departing the body in urine, feces, breath and other bodily fluids.
On average, a person weighing 70 kg will exhale around 200 ml of CO2 in 12 breaths each minute. The authors calculate that each breath contains 33 mg of CO2, with 8.9 mg comprised of carbon. A total of 17,280 breaths during the day will get rid of at least 200 g of carbon, with roughly a third of this weight loss occurring during 8 hours of sleep.
The carbon that is lost through exhalation is only replaced through the consumption of food and beverages such as fruit juice, milk and soft drinks. "Keeping the weight off simply requires that you put less back in by eating than you've exhaled by breathing," state the authors.
'Eat less, move more'
The amount of carbon that is lost can be increased with exercise. By substituting 1 hour of rest for 1 hour of moderate exercise such as jogging, the metabolic rate is increased sevenfold, removing an additional 40 g of carbon from the body, increasing the daily total by around 20% to 240 g.However, this can easily be offset with unhealthy eating. A single 100 g muffin, for example, provides around 20% of an average person's total daily energy requirement. "Physical activity as a weight loss strategy is, therefore, easily foiled by relatively small quantities of excess food," write the authors. The solution is a traditional one - "eat less, move more."
"We recommend these concepts be included in secondary school science curriculums and university biochemistry courses to correct widespread misconceptions about weight loss," they conclude.
Although the findings of the paper may alter how weight loss is understood, strategies for losing weight should remain unchanged. Eating less and moving more is a surefire way to combat the overindulgences of the festive season.
