How Does The Stuff Works...

Mayor with his son get arrested

2012-05-31T08:44:00.001-07:00

Recently the mayor of a New Jersey town was arrested, together with his son. The police arrested the family after it was claimed they had shut down an online service advocating his recall.

According to press reports, Felix Roque, 55, the mayor of West New York (NJ), and his son, Joseph Roque, 22, have been arrested by the Feds. The prosecutors found out that the pair worked out how to shut down the website www.recallroque.com – they gained access to the GoDaddy account which was used to control the domain. The family managed to obtain e-mails and messages that have been sent among opponents.

The prosecutors explained that Felix and Joseph Roque wanted to discover who exactly was behind the recall website. 22-years-old Joseph Roque’s searches in Google included “hacking a Go Daddy site”, “recallroque log-in”, and “html hacking tutorial”. As a result, the young man worked out how to reset the e-mail account which was used to register their opponents’ domain with GoDaddy and obtain control of the GoDaddy account.

After the shutdown of the service, Felix Roque went further and used the messages retrieved from the compromised accounts in order to identify people who used to run and support the website and called them. Felix Roque claimed that he had friends in high levels of government and it was them who had shut www.recallroque.com down. He also promised that now everyone would pay for getting involved against the Mayor.

At the moment, both the mayor and his son are charged with three counts of hacking. Felix Roque has been elected after leading a successful recall against the former mayor, Sal Vega.

Hypnosis | Method of Making People Focused

2011-06-10T06:34:00.000-07:00

The word hypnosis is derived from greek word 'hypnos' which means sleep.It is a method which brings the person in a state of consiousness but having low surrounding awareness and has strictly focused attention. The name hypnosis is given by James Braid which means a "nervous sleep". From this statement you may think that hypnosis means making a subject sleep. But actually hypnosis is not sleep. It is totally different than sleeping.For example the sleeping person cannot hear but a hypnotized person can. This is defined in term of Alpha brain waves. It is measured high during hypnosis but low during sleep.

From modern research it is found that person are born with certain level of "hypnotizability".A person with a higher level of hypnotizability is can be easily hypnotized so he/she is termed as"good subject" and a person with a low level of hypnotizability is termed as"poor subject". This ability of entering into hypnotized state is termed as"trance" state,which cannot be increased or enhanced.
Hypnosis shouldnot be thought as sleep, meditation or relaxation.Although it may seem to be similar as these other states of consciousness.Let me clear the difference between meditation and hypnosis.Meditation emphasizes an inward focus,within the subject himself/herself but hypnosis emphasizes the subject focus on something else than own.People who are imaginative can be easily hypnotized compared to the people who are malleable and submissive.Opposite to the common thinking person who are intelligent,creative and highly independent are the"best subject" to hypnotism.
Hypnosis is described by what happens to the subject during this trance state. The hypnotized person is able to project him or herself in another place while staying in a particular place. So, hypnosis is a method of making people focused in any other matter or thing. Hypnosis is being widely used all over the world as a therapy to control bedwetting, to enhance weight loss, to reduce addiction and in hypnosurgery.

Stun Gun

2011-06-06T06:46:00.000-07:00

Have you ever seen in movies that a person with a gadget,when he touch his opponent with that gadget. His opponent gets a massive electric shock and falls down infront of him.That gadget is not other than a 'Stun Gun'.This device has an advantage over other weapons is that rather killing a person it takes them down by making them unconsious.

           We are still a way far from this futuristic weapon but many people from different field are using them.Not only a security official,but an ordinary citizen do carry this weapon to protect themselves from personal attack.This device can be useful because it is designed to temporarily incapcitate a person without doing any long term damage.
   We may think that electricity is harmful for our bodies.But in smaller doses,electricity is harmless.In fact,it is the essential element element in our body. Everything we do in our daily life is done with the help of elecctric pulse send by your brain through nerve cells to the muscles or other body part.
   By knowing the fact our body works on the electirc pulse.The stun gun is made.It generates a high-voltage, low-amperage electrical charge which disrupts the communication system of our body.If you press the stun gun against the attacker and holds the trigger,the charge passes into the attacker's body and creates a lot of confusing information into the attacker's nervous system.The electric charge passed is mixed with electrical signal from the attacker's brain which creates a random noise of signal and the attacker has a very hard time to tell his muscles to move,which makes him partially paralyzed.

What is a Microprocessor?

2011-06-05T03:06:00.000-07:00

The term microprocessor itself tells its meanning 'micro' means small and 'processor' means which processes,it may be data or instruction.The microprocessor is the most important part of the computer or we can say brain of the computer.The computer you are using to read this page uses a microprocessor to do its work . The microprocessor may be of pentium,a k6,a spark,a power pc or many other brands.You may be using any one of them but all of them do approximately same thing in same way.
The formal defination of microprocessor is"A multipurpose, programmable,clock driven register based electronic device that reads binary instruction from some storage device called memory,accepts binary data as inputs processes data according to instructions and finally generates result as output."A microproceessor is also known as a CPU or central processing unit which is the complete computational engine that is fabricated on a single chip.
Intel 4004 was the first microprocessor,introduced in 1971. It is a 4-bit microprocessor.It could only perform addition and substration.Although it was nat very powerful , but it was the great achievement because everything was in one chip.Before 4004,computers are built either from collection of chip or from discrete component like transistor wired one at a time.It was the first portable electronic calculator.
The microprocessor is futher divided into three units namely: ALU(Arithmetic and Logic Unit), CU(Control Unit), RA(Register Array).

How does the gun silencer works..?

2011-05-29T07:41:00.000-07:00

You may have seen in different movies or in real life,the use of silencer in a gun.You may be surprised or you may have thought that how we can silence a gun,you may think there is a complicated concept beyond making a gun silent.But you should not worrry,because it works on a very simple principle.
       Let us take an example of a balloon filled with air.If you pop that balloon with a sharp things like pin ,it will brust making a loud sound.But if you let the air pass slowly from the end of the balloon it makes a very little noise.This is the basic concept behind a gun silencer.
             Now let us see the firing mechanism of a gun.When we press the trigger,the gunpowder behind the bullet is ignited.It creates a pulse of high pressure hot gases.This pressure forces the bullet to eject through the barrel of the gun.When the bullet exist the end of the barrel,the pressurized gas behind the bullet suddenly get expanded,which makes an extremly loud sound.
         Now when a silencer having the huge volume compared to the barrel is screwed at the end of the barrel,the high pressure gas behind the bullet will get a big space to expand.Which result in fall in pressure significantly.Finally,when the bullet exit through the hole of silencer the final pressure of the gas is much more decreased compared to the original.Therefore it produces much softer sound.

How does an Airplane flies..?

2011-05-29T07:01:00.000-07:00

We see may aeroplane flying over us in our daily life and most of us have thought how an object with tons of mass can easily fly over the sky.The mystery reveals here.
An airplanes has got powerful engines which creates a thrust on backward direction and pushes the planes in forward direction.The basic concept of flying of airplane is due to the structure of their wings.It is made such that the air flowing over it moves faster creating a low pressure above the wings and the pressure below the wings is at high state which produces a lift.This concept is based on Bernoulli's Principle.It states that"Any fluid,including air possessing speed must lose pressure".This lose in pressure creates the pressure difference above the wings and below the wings.And as we know that air moves from high pressure area to low pressure area ,the air exerts the force on the bottom of the wings.This force is called 'lift' and it is the necessary thing of flight.
The another thing to be noticed is as we have seen most of the heavy airplanes have their wings bended upward at the end.This is so because as we move towards the end of the wings,the direction of the air pressure inverts i.e. it acts downward which may be harmful for the airplanes.So to overcome this problem,engineers brings the concept of bending the wings at the end.An intresting fact about that is this concept is taken from the flying of the eagle.They conclude how the eagle bend its wings to get maximum lift which inspired us to design a big jets with short wings.
