SMART HEART

Image
SMART HEART : : Definitions : ·           H igh cholesterol is excess levels of fats in blood. Cholesterol in your blood consists of three main components: ·          Low density lipoproteins [LDL] : it involved in depositing chlestrol and other fast throught the body. High levels of LDL put you at risk of heart diseases. ·          High density lipoproteins [HDL]: it involved in eliminating cholesterol and other fats from the body. High levels of HDL are protective against heart diseases. ·          Triglycerides : a common form of fats in the  body. ·          High blood pressure is blood pressure consistently above 149/90 mm Hg which if uncontrolled can affect other organs suchas eyes,brain,kidneys in addition to your heart. ·          Body mass index is a measure of your weight in relations to your height. High BMI indicates obesity which can pt you at risk of heart diseases. ·          Ankle beachial index determines the presence of disease in your blood vessles of y

How healthy are you ? Blood pressure Body mass index[BMI] Ankle brachial index[ABI] Pulse wave velocity[PWV] <120/80 mm Hg-you are normal Less than 19 – your are normal >0.9 – your are normal Upto 36% - you are normal 3 to 60% - you require lifestyle modifications Between 140 to 159 mm Hg Systolic and 90 to 99 mm Hg Diiastolic – you have mild Hypertension 25-30 – you are over weight 0.5-0.9 – indicates less blood supply due to rick factors*** 61 to 90% - you are at moderate rick >160/100 mm Hg – you have severe Hypertension More than 30 – you are obese <0.5 – severe disease of the extremities >90% - you are at high risk *Body mass index is determined by dividing your weight  in Kg by the square of your height in metres. Eg: If your weight is 70 Kg and height is 156 cm then, your BMI = 70/[1.56]2 = 28.76 which means your are overweight. **Ankle Brachial Index and pulse wave velocity are determined by a sim

Letter to Hapgood

Letter to Hapgood November 24, 1952 Mr Charles H. Hapgood 2 Allenton Street Provincetown, Mass. Dear Sir: I have read already some years ago in a popular article about the idea that excentric masses of ice, accumulated near a pole, could produce from time to time considerable dislocations of the floating rigid crust of the earth. I have never occupied myself with this problem but my impression is that a careful study of this hypothesis is really desirable. I think that our factual knowledge of the underlying facts is at present not precise enough for a reliable answer based exclusively on calculations. Knowledge of geological and paleontological facts may be of decisive importance in the matter. In any case, it would not be justified to discard the idea a priori as adventurous. The question whether high pressure may not be able to produce fusion of nuclei is also quite justified. It is not known to me if a quantitative theory has been worked out by astrophysicists.  The action

PC’S RUN WITH THEIR OWN HEAT RATHER THAN ELECTRICITY

PC’S RUN WITH THEIR OWN HEAT RATHER THAN ELECTRICITY Computers may soon be able to recycle parts of their own waste heat, using a material being studied by researchers. The material is a semiconductor called gallium manganese arsenide. Researchers at the Ohio state university describe the detection of an effect that converts heat into quantum mechanical phenomenon known as spin in a semiconductor. Once developed, the effect could enable integrated circuits that run on heat rather than electricity. This research merges two cutting edges technologies: thermo electricity and spintronics, explained team leaders joseph heremans, Ohio eminent scholar in nanotechnology, and Roberts Myers of the Ohio state university. Image via Wikipedia  Myers and Heremans have been trying to combine spintronices with thermo-electronics that is, devices that convert heat to electricity.”Spintronics is considered as a possible basis for new computer in part because the technology is claimed to produce no h

Bio Mass generator

Bio Mass generator – Better burner Bio mass fuelled equipment manufacturer Talbotts has launched what it claims is one of the most efficient wood – fuelled bio mass generators on the market. The BG25 CHP unit believed by TALBOTTS TO BE A WORLD FIRST BECAUSE OF AN INNOVATIONS THAT INCORPORATES AUTOMOTIVE technology to ensure continuous operation on a self-sustaining generating cycle. The system works by burning waste wood in the form of pellets in a combustor waste that generates hot air through a mile and half of piping – packed into a compact heat exchanger. The hot air powers a turbo charger more usually found in Scania trucks. While much of it this heat energy is cycled back through the compressor to charge fresh incoming air and continues to drive the turbocharger, excess energy is captured by a substantial alternator via a specially designed gearbox. The self- contained system generators 25kw of power, and recycles excess energy within it, achieving what Talbotts said, are “un

Indian scientists

Indian scientists have played a stellar role in the development of India. In the short span of its post-independence history India has achieved several great scientific achievements. Indian scientists have proved their mettle in the face of international sanctions and have made India one of the scientific powerhouses of the world. Here is a brief profile of famous Indian scientists. C.V. Raman C.V. Raman is one of the most renowned scientists produced by India. His full name was Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman. For his pioneering work on scattering of light, C.V. Raman won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1930.  Homi Bhabha Homi Bhabha, whose full name was Homi Jehnagir Bhabha, was a famous Indian atomic scientist. In Independent India, Homi Jehnagir Bhabha, with the support of Jawaharlal Nehru, laid the foundation of a scientific establishment and was responsible for the creation of two premier institutions, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and Bhabha Atomic Research Centre.

He invented wireless telegraphy a year before Marconi patented his invention. Jagdish Chandra Bose was an eminent Indian scientist. He was the first to prove that plants and metals too have feelings. Jagdish Chandra Bose was born on November 30, 1858 in Mymensingh (now in Bangladesh). His father Bhagabanchandra Bose was a Deputy Magistrate. Jagadish Chandra Bose had his early education in village school in Bengal medium. In 1869, Jagadish Chandra Bose was sent to Calcutta to learn English and was educated at St.Xavier's School and College. He was a brilliant student. He passed the B.A. in physical sciences in 1879. In 1880, Jagdishchandra Bose went to England. He studied medicine at London University, England, for a year but gave it up because of his own ill health. Within a year he moved to Cambridge to take up a scholarship to stud

C.V. Raman

Born:  November 7, 1888 Died:  November 21, 1970 Achievements:  He was the first Indian scholar who studied wholly in India received the Nobel Prize. C.V. Raman is one of the most renowned scientists produced by India. His full name was Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman. For his pioneering work on scattering of light, C.V. Raman won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1930. Chandrashekhara Venkata Raman was born on November 7, 1888 in Tiruchinapalli, Tamil Nadu. He was the second child of Chandrasekhar Iyer and Parvathi Amma. His father was a lecturer in mathematics and physics, so he had an academic atmosphere at home. He entered Presidency College, Madras, in 1902, and in 1904 passed his B.A. examination, winning the first place and the gold medal in physics. In 1907, C.V. Raman passed his M.A. obtaining the highest distinctions. During those times there were not many opportunities for scientists in India. Therefore, Raman joined the Indian Finance Department in 1907.
