New MRI Contrast Agent for Cancer Detection
2011-12-22 15:34:00 A tumor, indicated by the white arrow, is darkened by a glycol chitosan contrast agent. New research from University of Pennsylvania engineers shows a way to coat an iron-based contrast agent so that it only interacts with the acidic environment of tumors, making it safer, cheaper and more effective than existing alternatives. The research was conducted by associate professor Andrew Tsourkas and graduate student Samuel H. Crayton of the department of bioengineering in Penn’s School of Engineering and Applied Science. It was published in the journal ACS Nano. http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.-1021/nn202863x?prevSearch=Tsour-kas&searchHistoryKey= By using glycol chitosan — a sugar-based polymer that reacts to acids — the engineers allowed the nanocarriers to remain neutral when near healthy tissue, but to become ionized in low pH. The change in charge that occurs in the vicinity of acidic tumors causes the nanocarriers to be attracted to and retained at those sites....
Free Motion Detection Video Surveillance Software
2011-12-16 09:00:00 Those who know me personally know that I'm a huge James Bond fan. One of the most memorable seens in a James Bond film for me comes from Dr. No where James is getting ready to leave his hotel room, but wants to know if someone breaks in. He does stuff like spreads some talcum powder on his brief case latches, and pulls out a single hair and places it over the crack in his closet doors. When he comes back there are finger prints in the talcum powder, and his hair on the closet door has been removed. Obviously someone was there.Imagine it the Sean Connery Bond had access to today's technology. Too bad he doesn't, but you certainly do. Imagine you are on a business trip like 007 and you are getting ready to go out for a night of Baccarat, and wooing the ladies, and you want to know if someone has been in your room. All you need is your trusty laptop, a webcam and this really cool free software that will activate your webcam if it detects motion in the room.Not only that the software...

Playing God and taking 'Crap Detection 101' at the same time
2011-11-20 17:09:00 I’m taking a wild guess here…. Waking up with a headache or a backache is all too common, right? Two more reasons Americans last year filled 254 million prescriptions for pain killing drugs like OxyContin and Percoset. That’s enough to medicate every American adult around the clock for an entire month. Lot of pain out... Read more »
Screening Mandate Will Be Boon to Early Mental Illness Detection
2010-12-21 14:53:00 Private insurers and many Medicaid plans will be required to cover the cost of screening beneficiaries for psychiatric illness, which is expected to decrease the number of individuals whose mental illness goes undetected. Screening for psychiatric illness in adults and children nationwide is expected to increase as coverage mandates in the new health care law for both private and public insurance programs go into effect over the next few years. And that increase could help cut the rates of untreated mental illness, said mental health advocates. Supporters of increased access to mental health care gathered for a Capitol Hill briefing in November to hail the expected benefits of the health care reform law. Those benefits came via provisions that include a requirement that all health insurance plans participating in the new state health insurance exchanges?planned for launch by 2014 - cover services recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), the Advisory Commi...
Microsoft Research Working On New Malware Detection Tool ‘Zozzle&rsqu
2010-12-03 11:15:00 In the last several years, we have seen a tremendous increase in JavaScript malware-based attacks owing to the memory vulnerabilities of the system. These kind of attacks are hard to locate and can be easily mounted against an unsuspecting user visiting a seemingly innocent website. While several techniques have been proposed to tackle it but none are light enough to be integrated into a commercial browser. But now, people at Microsoft Research are working on a new tool called “Zozzle” that can be deployed in the browser and can detect JavaScript-based malware at a very high effectiveness rate. Zozzle is mostly a static detector that can examine a page and determine if it contains a malicious code for an exploit (better known as heap spray object). The runtime component of Zozzle takes care of the malicious JavaScript segment. Zozzle is integrated with browser’s JavaScript engine to collect and process JavaScript code that is created at runtime. However in order t...

Radar Speed Detection Device in China
2009-08-12 09:09:00 It looks like a PC case with a car battery attached to it.Radar Speed Detection Device in ChinaA speed detector, sometimes called a fuzz buster, is a passive electronic device used by motorists to determine if their speed is being monitored by law enforcement agencies via a radar unit, thereby potentially avoiding prosecution for speeding. Only doppler radar-based devices can be detected ? other speed measuring devices including those using ANPR, piezo sensors and VASCAR technology cannot be detected, while LIDAR devices require a different type of sensor. Most of today's speed detectors detect signals across a variety of wavelength bandsOne of the technologies that law enforcement agencies can use to measure the speed of a moving vehicle uses doppler radar to beam a radio wave at the vehicle, and then infer the vehicle's speed by measuring the Doppler effect-moderated change in the reflected wave's frequency. Radar guns can be hand-held, vehicle mounted or strategically mounted....

Google’s New ‘Ah..huh’ Feature - Face Detection In Orkut
2009-07-21 07:55:00 Everybody loves photographs. It reminds them of the precious moments they had spent with their loved ones. Most of the users on Orkut, Facebook use album features where they can share their priceless moments with their friends. With the evolution and huge adoption of digital cameras number of photos clicked by individuals have increased exponentially. With this huge number of photographs comes the headache of organizing them. I have a collection of more than 5 GB of snaps which are still unorganized and scares me when I think of organizing them. Google seems to have come up with a solution to this problem. Soon it is going to launch automated photo tagging feature with the help of its revolutionary face detection technique. This face detection feature will be applied on all new snaps uploaded on Orkut Albums. With this feature Orkut will be able to detect the faces in the photograph and tag them accordingly. They try to detect the faces based on various unique features like eyes, n...

Protection and Detection
2008-11-05 09:33:00 As per US Go0ernment study, ?even the best filters could only filter / block 91% of adult websites, leaving 9% or more unfiltered.? The fact is that even those 9% websites (that make up to millions on the world wide web) are enough danger to society in general and to young generation in particular. Wiser is to use pornography-detection tool like SurfRecon ? software that allows you to scan a computer system and see what the filter have missed. This software will work where internet filters fail and you will have a peace of mind. It is recommended that every one protects and detects pornography with SurfRecon pornography detection tools.

The High Cost of Being Wrong: Why Data Detection Matters
2008-10-20 10:00:00 Imagine you see a car stopped on some train tracks, and you hear a train coming. How do you react? Do you ignore the sound of the train, thinking it won’t hit the car? In that same vein, not having an accurate data loss prevention (DLP) solution in place within your organization is akin to standing by and watching that train wreck about to happen – all while pretending you can’t see what’s going on even though the train’s horn is blaring. In my ten years of experience in the search and categorization space, I can tell you that the risk of a DLP software policy allowing false negatives, when sensitive documents are missed by the policy and considered safe, is potentially extremely costly to a company...
