A new local area network attack through IP and MAC address spoofing

A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network that connects computers with each other within a limited area such as a locality, college, office etc. Though Wi-Fi offers mobility, handiness and is cost effective than LAN connections in setting up, still LAN are being used at Library, Home, Offices for its fast transfer speed and higher reliability. Realizing the different threats associated with LAN based networks and hacking them to make them more secure by letting people know about this problem is what this paper is all about. In this paper, we have pointed out the common and existing attacks in LAN and also proposed a new attack of getting access of internet through different IP address and MAC address of same LAN by examining three Internet Service Providers in India. We have made this attack working by using some very useful but little known software's. This paper outlines the way one get access to others internet account and how to deal with it by making people familiar with scanning tool like Advanced IP Scanner and MAC Address Changer.
Phonon attenuation in amorphous solids studied by picosecond ultrasonics.

We have used a picosecond optical technique to measure the attenuation {alpha} of longitudinal-acoustic phonons in several disordered solids. We find a universal {alpha}{approximately}{nu}{sup 2} behavior for frequencies {nu} up to 320 GHz and for temperatures between 80 and 300 K. Within this temperature range the phonon attenuation increases by a factor of between 2 and 3 with increasing temperature for the amorphous polymers poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(styrene), and poly(ethyl methacrylate), and for the metallic glass TiNi. We discuss our results in relation to current theories of high-frequency vibrations in glasses and thermal conduction. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society. }
Logical Theory of the Monoid of Languages over a Non Tally Alphabet

We consider the first-order theory of the monoid PA* of languages over a finite or infinite alphabet A with at least two letters endowed solely with concatenation lifted to sets: no set theoretical predicate or function, no constant. Coding a word u by the submonoid u* it generates, we prove that the operation u*, v* → uv* and the predicate {u*,X | e ∈ X, u ∈ X} are definable in . This allows to interpret the second-order theory of in the first-order theory of and prove the undecidability of the Π8 fragment of this last theory. These results involve technical difficulties witnessed by the logical complexity of the obtained definitions: the above mentioned predicates are respectively Δ5 and Δ7.
Appraising weak and strong sustainability: searching for a middle ground

This paper seeks to address the issue of weak and strong sustainability as well as the search for a middle ground. It discusses the differences between weak and strong sustainability while arguing for the harmonisation of both nature and humankind. Achieving harmony requires a move towards an idealist eco-sociofeminist point of view. Through this, full equality and balance may be attained.
Extension of the measurement range of MOS dosimeters using radiation induced charge neutralization

This work proposes a new biasing technique to extend the dose measurement range of MOS dosimeters. The technique consists on alternating stages of positive oxide charge buildup with stages of radiation induced charge neutralization, maintaining an uniform sensitivity along the whole measurement. The technique was applied with 70 nm MOS dosimeters, extending the dose measurement range from less than a kilogray to more than 675 kGy without showing wear effects. An initial saturation of interface traps creation ensures repeatability in the responses.
Sex differences in plasma cortisol and growth in the bovine.

Tame, pubescent beef calves (six bulls; six heifers) were used to examine the relationship between sex, increase in body weight (BW) and plasma cortisol (C). In bulls (B), plasma testosterone (T) was also examined. The two groups were fed a concentrate to 1.5% BW and Coastal bermudagrass hay ad libitum. From 7 to 12 mo of age, at 28-d intervals, the animals were weighed and jugular vein blood was collected every 15 min for 6 h. Onset of puberty was determined weekly by measuring scrotal circumference in B and assaying for plasma progesterone in the heifers (H). Acceptable growth occurred in both B (.83 kg/d) and H (.67 kg/d). These growth rates were different (P less than .02). Plasma C concentrations were significantly different between the sexes over the time span examined. Whereas C remained between 1.6 and 1.8 ng/ml between 7 and 12 mo of age in B, C rose from 2.9 to 6.0 ng/ml in H. The experiment means for B and H were 2.8 +/- . 3 (mean +/- SE) and 5.7 +/- . 4 (P less than .01). There were significant correlations between plasma C and age or weight in H, but not in B. Mean plasma T in B was greatest at 9 and 10 mo of age (1.4 and 1.3 ng/ml) and lowest at 7 and 12 mo of age (.76 and .74 ng/ml). Plasma T was not correlated with plasma C or age. The lower plasma C concentrations in B compared with H is commensurate with the greater growth that occurred in B. (ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Hypothesis: chromosome separation in Escherichia coli involves autocatalytic gene expression, transertion and membrane‐domain formation

To explain how daughter chromosomes are separated into discrete nucleoids and why chromosomes are partitioned with pole preferences, I propose that differential gene expression occurs during DNA replication in Escherichia coli. This differential gene expression means that the daughter chromosomes have different patterns of gene expression and that cell division is not a simple process of binary fission. Differential gene expression arises from autocatalytic gene expression and creates a separate proteolipid domain around each developing chromosome via the coupled transcription‐translation–insertion of proteins into membranes (transertion). As these domains are immiscible, daughter chromosomes are simultaneously replicated and separated into discrete nucleoids. I also propose that the partitioning relationship between chromosome age and cell age arises because the poles of cells have a proteolipid composition that favours transertion from one nucleoid rather than from the other. This hypothesis forms part of an ensemble of related hypotheses which attempt to explain cell division, differentiation and wall growth in bacteria in terms of the physical properties and interactions of the principal constituents of cells.
Rules extraction in SVM and neural network classifiers of atrial fibrillation patients with matched wavelets as a feature generator

Presented paper describes a system of biomedical signal classifiers with preliminary feature extraction stage based on matched wavelets analysis, where two structures of classifier using Neural Networks (NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are applied. As a pilot study the rules extraction algorithm applied for two of mentioned machine learning approaches (NN & SVM) was used. This was made to extract and transform the representation of knowledge gathered in Black Box parameters during classifier learning phase to be better and natural understandable for human user/expert. Proposed system was tested on the set of ECG signals of 20 atrial fibrillation (AF) and 20 control group (CG) patients, divided into learning and verifying subsets, taken from MIT-BiH database. Obtained results showed, that the ability of generalization of created system, expressed as a measure of sensitivity and specificity increased, due to extracting and selectively choosing only the most representative features for analyzed AF detection problem. Classification results achieved by means of constructed matched wavelet, created for given AF detection features were better than indicators obtained for standard wavelet basic functions used in ECG time-frequency decomposition.
Regulation of leaf and fruit growth in plants growing in drying soil: exploitation of the plants' chemical signalling system and hydraulic architecture to increase the efficiency of water use in agriculture

Novel therapeutic targets in multiple myeloma

Abstract: Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, and a new perspective on the approach to therapy is required. The aim of this review is to focus on a number of key areas where recent advances in the biology of the disease have not only yielded an understanding of the disease pathogenesis but have also suggested novel treatment approaches. Factors mediating myeloma cell growth, survival and the complex interaction of myeloma cells with the bone marrowmicroenvironment have provided a framework for the rational design of therapeutic agents. The development of such biologically based treatments which target both the tumour cell and the microenvironment, in order to achieve more complete and selective eradication of myeloma cells and the maintenance of minimal residual disease states, may ultimately lead to improved disease‐free survivial and potentially a cure.
On adaptive probability hypothesis density filter for multi-target tracking

In order to improve tracking performance of the existing probability hypothesis density (PHD) filters, we present an adaptive filter for multi-target tracking in this paper. At first, both the completed clutter process and the single-target measurement likelihood are improved based on the Bayesian theory. Then, the target cardinality is corrected using the adaptive detection gate. What's more, a novel particle implementation is explored step by step. Numerical study results have been carried out to confirm the promising tracking performance of the proposed PHD filter.
Cathepsin K osteoporosis trials, pycnodysostosis and mouse deficiency models: Commonalities and differences

ABSTRACT Introduction: The osteoporosis market reached a value of more than $11 billion in 2015. Current treatments remain mostly antiresorptive and comprise of bisphosphonates, the anti-RANKL antibody, denusomab, and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). The most promising novel antiresorptives are cathepsin K inhibitors, which selectively target the bone matrix, degrading protease without interfering with osteoclast viability or formation as all other antiresorptives do. Areas covered: This review analyses the current status of cathepsin K inhibitor development, its side effects, and compares the phenotypes of mouse and human cathepsin K deficiencies with drug treatment outcomes. Expert opinion: Several selective cathepsin K inhibitors have been developed and evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies. Although all compounds were effective in reducing bone resorption markers, the development of some compounds was terminated either due to side effects or market competition. The most advanced compound is odanacatib, which significantly reduced bone fracture rates in a 5-year trial but still exhibits safety concerns. The analysis of mouse and human catK deficiencies sheds some light on the consequences of a cathepsin K inhibitor treatment. How predictive the knockout phenotypes are regarding long-term cathepsin K treatment remains unclear. Clearly, more studies are needed to understand the mechanism of the observed side effects and novel approaches are needed to make CatK inhibitors either osteoclast-specific or selective for the inhibition of the collagen matrix without affecting the other activities of the protease.

etection of Coronary rtery Disease in Asymptomatic atients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

OBJECTIVES We sought to verify the effectiveness of current American Diabetes Association screening guidelines in identifying asymptomatic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). BACKGROUND In DM2 patients, CAD generally is detected in an advanced stage with an extensive atherosclerosis and poor outcome, whereas CAD in an asymptomatic stage is commonly missed. METHODS This study included 1,899 asymptomatic DM2 patients (age 60 years). Of these, 1,121 had 2 associated risk factors (RFs), group A, and the remaining 778 had 1 RF, group B, for CAD. All patients underwent dipyridamole myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE), and in those with myocardial perfusion defects, the anatomy of coronary vessels was analyzed by selective coronary angiography. RESULTS In the two study groups, the prevalence of abnormal MCE (59.4% vs. 60%, p 0.96) and of a significant CAD (64.6% vs. 65.5%, p 0.92) was similar, irrespective of RF profile. But coronary anatomy differed: group B had a lower prevalence of three-vessel disease (7.6% vs. 33.3%, p 0.001), of diffuse disease (18.0% vs. 54.9%, p 0.001), and of vessel occlusion (3.8% vs. 31.2%, p 0.001), whereas one-vessel disease was more frequent (70.6% vs. 46.3%, p 0.001). Coronary anatomy did not allow any revascularization procedure in 45% of group A patients. CONCLUSIONS An “aggressive” diagnostic approach, requiring coronary angiography in asymptomatic DM2 patients with 1 associated RF for CAD and abnormal MCE, identified patients with a subclinical CAD characterized by a more favorable angiographic anatomy. The criterion of 2 RFs did not help to identify asymptomatic patients with a higher prevalence of CAD and is only related to a more severe CAD with unfavorable coronary anatomy.

Rationalizing the approach to children with fever in neutropenia

Purpose of review Fever in neutropenia is the most frequent potentially life-threatening complication of chemotherapy in children and adolescents with cancer. This review summarizes recent studies that refine our knowledge of how to manage pediatric fever in neutropenia, and their implications for clinical practice and research. Recent findings Many studies have focused on improving risk stratification based on clinical and laboratory characteristics, and on stepping-down treatment in low-risk episodes. New diagnostic strategies are in their infancy, including use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods and cross-sectional imaging. Increasing use of systematic review and meta-analysis has helped to consolidate research and to reduce or identify uncertainties in many areas. Summary Our understanding of the cause of fever in neutropenia has been improved by PCR-based diagnostics, but the clinical implications remain unclear. Many risk-prediction models have been developed, but none is useful for clinical practice as yet. First-day outpatient management, with oral or intravenous antibiotics, is now known to be efficacious and cost-effective for pediatric low-risk fever in neutropenia. Before implementing this regimen as new standard of care, its safety should be assessed. Internationally supported evidence-based guidelines for pediatric fever in neutropenia are being developed. They have the potential to rationalize everyday practice, and stimulate further research.
Evaluation of problem based learning course at college of medicine, qassim university, saudi arabia.

BACKGROUND The PBL approach to learning in medical education can be considered as the most significant educational innovation in the past four decades. PBL is by now a well established method of learning and instruction. Evaluating the success of PBL as compared to more traditional Lecture Based Learning requires more complex techniques. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to examine the conceptualization, design, implementation and usefulness of the PBL programme, and to determine its effectiveness. METHODS This study was conducted at a premier problem-based leaning medical school of Saudi Arabia. The Course Experience Questionnaire [CEQ], designed to measure the quality of learning experience, and the Student Course Experience Questionnaire (SCEQ) have been used in this study. The survey included the four aspects of learning environments known to relate to the quality of student learning. RESULTS The study reveals that the PBL system helps developing student skills particularly problem solving skills and help sharpening analytic skills However, majority of the students are not satisfied with the evaluation system in the college as they think that it is not student-centered as it does not reflect the improvement made by the student with the passage of time. Students are satisfied with many objectives of the Problem Based Learning. The majority of respondents agreed that PBL is better than the traditional system and consider it superior to the traditional Lecture-Based System in Medical Education. CONCLUSION The growing popularity and increased application of PBL presents significant challenges. Results indicate that after 18 months students become bored with the repetitious routine of working through problems and the problems and the approach used in the tutorial groups cease to be challenging and motivating. The authors conclude that PBL is having an impact on the performance of students, their perspective on learning and teaching methods. Our strategy for evaluating the success of PBL is ongoing and the results represent only an initial stage in analysis as we are still in the process of standardizing the process of collecting the outcome data particularly from those who are pass outs from the college.
Earliest direct evidence for broomcorn millet and wheat in the central Eurasian steppe region

Before 3000 BC, societies of western Asia were cultivating wheat and societies of China were cultivating broomcorn millet; these are early nodes of the world's agriculture. The authors are searching for early cereals in the vast lands that separate the two, and report a breakthrough at Begash in south-east Kazakhstan. Here, high precision recovery and dating have revealed the presence of both wheat and millet in the later third millennium BC. Moreover the context, a cremation burial, raises the suggestion that these grains might signal a ritual rather than a subsistence commodity.
Sclerally directed processes of dopaminergic interplexiform cells reach the outer nuclear layer in rat and monkey retina

Abstract Tyrosine hydroxylase-immunolabeled wholemounts and sections of rat and monkey retina were observed at both the light- and electron-microscopic level. Small processes derived from sclerally directed processes of dopaminergic interplexiform cells were observed ascending to the outer nuclear layer where they were distributed between photoreceptor cells. A role in the regulation of disc shedding and/or melatonin biosynthesis is proposed for dopamine released at this level.
A Study on the Construction of Virtual Enterprise Capability System Oriented to Project Management

The concept of virtual enterprise capability is proposed based on the theory of virtual enterprise and enterprise capability. Virtual enterprise capability depends on project, so it is temporary, integrated and complex capability. The system of virtual enterprise capability is presented which is composed of project, organization, communication, process and environment. Virtual enterprise capability has three stratums: standard capability, systematic capability and complex capability. Virtual enterprise capability is dynamic in quantity and quality.
Parathyroid function in paget's disease of bone

In order to determine the prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with Paget's disease of bone, we measured serum parathyroid hormone levels (N‐terminal assay) in 39 patients with a wide range of pagetic activity. All patients had normal serum calcium levels. A total of 30 patients were either untreated or had received no treatment for 6 months or longer when studied; the other 9 were receiving either salmon calcitonin (3) or EHDP (6). The results showed that in 7 of the 39 patients (18%) parathyroid hormone levels were increased above normal. These were among the most severely affected cases, as manifested by the degree of elevation of three pagetic biochemical indices: serum alkaline phosphatase, plasma bone Gla protein, and 24 h urinary hydroxyproline‐creatinine ratios. Levels of 25‐hydroxyvitamin D3 and 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D3 were normal.
