Validating Form Input in JavaScript
This time we'll make a form that collects information about the visitor at your site. You must have filled-in copious registration forms or survey forms where you had to enter your name, your email, your address, etc. Sometimes users, intentionally or unintentionally, enter wrong information that can either spoil your database scheme or give you lots of useless data and hence, waste your precious server space.
To avoid such problems, as much as it can be managed, we programmatically try to make sure, that data is entered in an orderly fashion, and no unusable fie ...

Which is Harder: To Know the Past or To Predict the Future
Miscellaneous Idea and Concept. Something to think about, not relating to any particular topic, event or person. I would like to begin this quarter review of thoughts on both the past and the future. First it appears to be easier to predict the future than to guesstimate the past. For instance predicting the future seems to be much easier than that of the work of archeologists trying to piece together what happened based on clues and forensics. And to this point I wish to bring to point a few recent works. One is the work done by Stephen Wolfram where he shows how simple programs develop ex ...

Genetic, Household and Spatial Clustering of Leprosy on an Island in Indonesia: A Population-Based Study
It is generally accepted that genetic factors play a role in susceptibility to both leprosy per se and leprosy type, but only few studies have tempted to quantify this. Estimating the contribution of genetic factors to clustering of leprosy within families is difficult since these persons often share the same environment. The first aim of this study was to test which correlation structure (genetic, household or spatial) gives the best explanation for the distribution of leprosy patients and seropositive persons and second to quantify the role of genetic factors in the occurrence of leprosy and seropositivity.

Ultram Story: Keeping Pain Control Under Control
When Aspirin Isn’t Enough It’s surprising how clearly we can recall getting hurt. Years later, we can recount our first fall from a too-tempting tree, a bee-sting, the birth of a child. We can even tell humorous stories about those events because the pain was transient – it passed. But many illnesses and conditions can make pain a daily visitor, interfering with our jobs, family lives, even sleep. Even ancient people tried to relieve the devastation of chronic pain using surgeries and medicinal herbs. By the 1800s, people started using narcotics (drugs like opium) to redu ...

MADE OF ATOMIC SIZE STARS IN A CLUMPY FIREWORK UNIVERSE
The discoveries of normal galaxies, strings of galaxies and heavy elements in the far distant universe [1-7] suggest that these space objects have to be older than what the big bang universe can allow for their creation. In this way the big bang universe enters its current age crisis [8], which will require some new assumptions to mend the edifice of this complex theory. The basic principle of parsimony, known as Occam's razor, says not to do with more, e.g. with more assumptions, what can be done with less [9]. The advance of science shows that nature prefers simplicity and the simple explana ...
