Violence exposure in real-life, video games, television, movies,
and the internet: is there desensitization?
Abstract
It is believed that repeated exposure to real-life and to entertainment violence may alter cognitive, affective, and behavioral processes, possibly leading to desensitization. The goal of the present study was to determine if there are relationships between real-life and media violence exposure and desensitization as reflected in related characteristics. Desensitization means the attenuation or elimination of cognitive, emotional, and, ultimately, behavioral responses to a stimulus (Rule &
Ferguson, 1986). The process of desensitization can be directly and purposefully manipulated. For example, systematic desensitization is a commonly used technique in behavior therapy whose aim is to reduce or eliminate certain emotional responses through graded and supervised exposure to anxiety-inducing stimuli (Wolpe, 1973). Systematic desensitization is a key component of therapeutic interventions for children, with documented effectiveness in changing feelings, emotions, and behaviors
Removal Of Fluoride From Ground Water By Using Adsorbent
Bhagyashree M Mamilwar *, A.G.Bhole **, A.M.Sudame***
Presence of Fluoride in water is safe and effective when used as directed, but it can be harmful at high doses and at low concentration. In the present paper bark of babool as a adsorbent is used for removal of fluoride from groundwater. Defluoridation
of groundwater using bark of babool as an adsorbent was studied in batch process.

Information operations (IO), as a concept, are as old as man’s quest for warfare and his dependence on information. However, its role has increased tremendously due to the exceptional growth in technology over the past few decades. Indian mythologyis replete with examples of the innovative and effective use of information warfare as a war winning effort. The announcement of the death of Ashwathama amidst the beating of drums (jamming), and various other tactics of Lord Krishna to gain information superiority, are just a few of the numerous epic examples.

Method and system for processing of a liquid (“contaminant liquid”) containing water and containing urine and/or other contaminants in a two step process. Urine, or a contaminated liquid similar to and/or containing urine and thus having a relatively high salt and urea content is passed through an activated carbon filter to provide a resulting liquid, to remove most of the organic molecules. The resulting liquid is passed through a semipermeable membrane from a membrane first side to a membrane second side, where a fortified drink having a lower water concentration (higher osmotic potential) than the resulting liquid is positioned. Osmotic pressure differential causes the water, but not most of the remaining inorganic (salts) contaminant(s) to pass through the membrane to the fortified drink. Optionally, the resulting liquid is allowed to precipitate additional organic molecules before passage through the membrane.
