What is Body mass index (BMI)
What is BMI ??
Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on your weight in relation to your height, and applies to most adult men and women aged 20 and over. For children aged 2 and over, BMI percentile is the best assessment of body fat.
- Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of relative size based on the mass and height of an individual.
- The Quetelet Index was devised by Adolphe Quetelet, a Belgian mathematician, astronomer and statistician, in 1832. It was later termed "body mass index" in 1972 by Ancel Keys.
- BMI is a simple, inexpensive and noninvasive surrogate measure of body fat.
- Factors such as age, sex, ethnicity and muscle mass are not accounted for in BMI.
- For adults 20 years and older, BMI is interpreted by using standard weight status categories that are the same for all ages, and for both men and women.
- For children and adolescents between 2-20 years old, BMI is interpreted relative to a child's age and sex.
- BMI is a reasonable indicator of body fat for both adults and children.
- Because BMI does not measure body fat directly, it should not be used as a diagnostic tool.
- BMI should be used as a measure to track weight status in populations and as a screening tool to identify potential weight problems in individuals.
- Other measures of body fat, such as skin-fold thicknesses, bio-electrical impedance, underwater weighing and dual energy X-ray absorption, maybe more accurate than BMI.

IP address Facts
What is IP address ??
Every machine on a network has a unique
identifier. Just as you would address a letter to send in the mail, computers
use the unique identifier to send data to specific computers on a network. Most
networks today, including all computers on the Internet,
use the TCP/IP protocol as the standard for how to communicate on the network.
In the TCP/IP protocol, the unique identifier for a computer is called its IP
address.
An IP address is a fascinating product of modern
computer technology designed to allow one computer (or other digital device) to
communicate with another via the Internet. IP
addresses allow the location of literally billions of digital devices that are
connected to the Internet to be pinpointed and differentiated from other
devices. In the same sense that someone needs your mailing address to send you a letter, a remote
computer needs your IP address to communicate with your computer.
"IP" stands for Internet Protocol, so an IP address is an Internet Protocol address. What does that mean? An
Internet Protocol is a set of rules that govern Internet activity and
facilitate completion of a variety of actions on the World Wide Web. Therefore
an Internet Protocol address is part of the systematically laid out
interconnected grid that governs online communication by identifying both
initiating devices and various Internet destinations, thereby making two-way
communication possible.
There
are two standards for IP addresses: IP Version 4 (IPv4) and IP Version 6
(IPv6). All computers with IP what addresses have an IPv4 address, and many are
starting to use the new IPv6 address system as well. Here's these two address
types mean:
·
IPv4
uses 32 binary bits to create a single unique address on the network. An IPv4
address is expressed by four numbers separated by dots. Each number is the
decimal (base-10) representation for an eight-digit binary (base-2) number,
also called an octet. For example: 216.27.61.137
·
IPv6
uses 128 binary bits to create a single unique address on the network. An IPv6
address is expressed by eight groups of hexadecimal (base-16) numbers separated
by colons, as in 2001:cdba:0000:0000:0000:0000:3257:9652. Groups of numbers
that contain all zeros are often omitted to save space, leaving a colon
separator to mark the gap (as in 2001:cdba::3257:9652).
This innocuous-looking
group of four numbers (IPv4) is the key that empowers you and me to send and
retrieve data over our Internet connections, ensuring that our messages, as
well as our requests for data and the data we've requested, will reach their
correct Internet destinations. Without this numeric protocol, sending and
receiving data over the World Wide Web would be impossible.
IP addresses can be either static or dynamic. Static IP addresses never change. They serve
as a permanent Internet address and provide a simple and reliable way
for remote computers to contact you. Static IP
addresses reveal such information as the continent, country, region, and city
in which a computer is located; the ISP (Internet Service Provider) that
services that particular computer; and such technical information as the
precise latitude and longitude of the country, as well as the locale, of the
computer. Many websites provide IP
address look-up services to their
visitors, free of charge. If you're curious about your own IP address, you can locate these
websites by performing a Google search.
Dynamic IP addresses are
temporary and are assigned each time a computer accesses the Internet. They
are, in effect, borrowed from a pool of IP
addresses that are shared among various computers. Since a limited number of
static IP addresses are
available, many ISPs reserve a portion of their assigned addresses for sharing among their
subscribers in this way. This lowers costs and allows them to service far more
subscribers than they otherwise could.
Static IP addresses are
generally preferable for such uses as VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), online
gaming, or any other purpose where users need to make it easy for other
computers to locate and connect to them. Easy access can also be facilitated
when using a dynamic IP address through the use of a dynamic DNS
service, which enables other computers to find you even though you may be using
a temporary, one-time IP address.
This often entails an extra charge, however, so check with your ISP.
Static IP addresses
are considered somewhat less secure than dynamic IP addresses, since they are easier to
track for data mining purposes. However, following safe Internet practices can
help mitigate this potential problem and keep your computer secure no matter
what type of IP address you use.

O Positive Blood
O pOsitive blOOd facts
O Positive Blood Type (O+)
1.
Most Common Blood Type
The O positive blood type is the most common and
incredibly an important donor in maintaining adequate blood supply. It is
present in 1 out of 3 individuals. This means approximately 37.4% of the
population has O positive blood. However, not all of the ethnic groups
share the same proportions of blood types. O positive blood type is about 37%
in Caucasians, 47% in African American, 53% in Hispanic, and 39% in Asian.
2. Inheritance Patterns
The ABO
gene found on chromosome 9 determines the ABO blood group system. O genes (or
alleles) do not produce antigens A or B, thereby are called silent
alleles. Blood Group O has neither A or B antigen on red cells
but with both the A and B antibody in the plasma.
How is O Positive blood type inherited?
·
If
parental blood groups consist of O and O, the child’s blood group will be O.
·
If
parental blood groups consist of O and A, the child’s blood group will either
be O or A.
·
If
parental blood groups consist of O and B, the child’s blood group will either
be O or B.
·
If
parental blood groups consist of A and A, the child’s blood group will either
be O or A.
·
If
parental blood groups consist of A and B, the child’s blood group will either
be one of O, A, B, or AB.
·
If parental blood groups
consist of B and B, the child’s blood group will either be O or B.
3. Blood Type Compatibility: O+ Can Receive
Both O+ and O-
Being
the most common blood type, it is transfused most often. O Positive individuals
can only receive both O+ and O- because they have antibodies to both A and B
antigens in their blood. If A and B is introduced, it will cause an immune
response.
4. Blood Type Compatibility: O+ Can Be Given
To O+, A+, B+ and AB+
Being an
O+ donor makes the person the type of individual to hold being the most ideal
red blood benefactor. Individuals with an O+ blood type can be a red blood cell
donor to blood types O+, A+, B+, and AB+.
5. Plasma Type Compatibility: O Can Receive
O, A, B and AB
Blood
Type O carries both antibodies, making blood type O group compatible to receive
plasma from groups O, A, B and AB. However, blood type O plasma can only be
given to type O recipients. The individuals who are compatible
in receiving platelets from an O+ donor are O+ recipients.
6. Has an Rh Factor
Rh
Factor is an additional marker in the blood. This can be classified as either
Rh positive or Rh negative. This marker is only used for genetic differences. O
Positive blood type is Rh positive.
7. Tendency Towards Higher Levels of Stomach
Acids
Individuals
with blood type O may be predisposed to certain medical conditions like ulcers.
This can happen because of higher levels of stomach acids. However, they have
well-built ability to digest protein and fat-rich meals. The two chemicals
intestinal alkaline phosphatase enzyme and ApoB48 lipoprotein used by the
digestive tract are secreted at much higher levels. It improves the ability of
blood type O individuals to metabolize animal sourced cholesterol more
efficiently. However, simple carbohydrates such as those sourced from grains,
are easily converted into triglycerides and fats.
8. Immediate “Fight or Flight” Response
This can
cause episodes of excessive anger, hyperactivity, temper tantrums, and chemical
imbalance bringing about manic experiences. Blood Type O individuals are also
vulnerable to destructive behaviors when exceedingly bored, tired or depressed,
due to the synergistic relationship between feelings of reward and release of
dopamine.
9. Diet Recommendations
It is
recommended for blood type O individuals to focus their diet on organic meats,
fruits and vegetables to avoid being overstressed. Moreover, dairy and wheat
products should be avoided because they may initiate digestive and health
concerns. Intake of caffeine and alcohol should also be avoided. They can be
harmful with their potential to increase adrenaline and noradrenaline which are
already in high levels in blood type O individuals.
10. Exercise Recommendations
Brisk
regular exercise that promotes the musculoskeletal and cardiovascular system
can be beneficial. Physical exercise releases a crowd of neurotransmitter
activity to tone the whole system. It also helps uphold a physical health and
emotional balance due to a well regulated and efficient chemical transport
system. Aaerobic physical exercise should be done 3 to 4 times a week for at
least 30 minutes each.
