session layer

The fifth layer of the OSI Reference Model is the session layer. The session layer is
responsible for initiating the setup and teardown of connections. To perform these
functions, the session layer must determine whether data stays local to a computer
alternatively, must be obtained or sent to a remote networking component. In the latter case,
the session layer initiates the connection.
The session layer is also responsible for differentiating among multiple network connections, ensuring that data is sent across the correct connection as well as taking data from a connection and forwarding it to the correct local application. The actual mechanics of this process, however, are implemented at the transport layer. To set up connections or tear down connections,
the session layer communicates with the transport layer. Remote Procedure Calls
(RPCs) are an example of a TCP/IP session protocol; the Network File System
(NFS), which uses RPCs, is another example of a protocol at this layer. The
session layer is also responsible for error reporting of any issues at the application,
presentation, and session layers and for implementing any type of class of service
(CoS) to give preference to some types of traffic or connections over others.

FILTER UNWANTED CONTENT IN ORKUT

Google’s social networking site Orkut has introduced what it describes as a “safety filter” that automatically filters out adult content such as sexually suggestive phrases or images. The filter has been introduced in India, and is turned on by default for users in the country. Google plans to introduce it in other countries in the next few weeks, said Rahul Kulkarni, product manager at Google India, on Thursday. The new filter screens for content that may not violate Orkut’s community standards for objectionable content, but which users may not want to see, Kulkarni said.
Orkut is offering the filter as there is always a gray area as to what is considered as unacceptable adult content, which will likely vary from country to country or from one household to another, Kulkarni said. Users have the option to turn off the filter, Kulkarni added. With the “Safety Filter” on, if users come across content such as photos or text that they may find unacceptable, they will receive a warning and the specific content will be replaced by special icons, according to a post on Wednesday on the Orkut blog (http://en.blog.orkut.com/) . No filter is fully accurate, so if users see a page that they think should be blocked, they have to flag it as usual and let Orkut know, according to the blog.
Orkut has been criticized and even sued in court in India not so much for sexually explicit content, but for political content, including communities on the site that criticize the country or some of its politicians. The filter in Orkut is however oriented to filtering out sexual content and not political content. Filtering political content is far more difficult as there is always a gray area as to when the filter would come in the way of freedom of speech, Kulkarni said..

STRESSFUL LIFE CAUSE HEART PROBLEMS

There is a stressful life in each and everyones life which is cause by the bosses in the company. they become very moody in homes which causes problem.

Experts said that feeling undervalued and unsupported at work can cause stress, which often fosters unhealthy behaviours, such as smoking, that can lead to heart disease.

Previous work has shown that unfair bosses can drive up their employees’ blood pressure, and persistent high blood pressure can increase heart disease risk.

For the latest study, researchers from the Karolinska Institute and Stockholm University tracked the heart health of the male employees, aged between 19 and 70 and working in the Stockholm area, over a period of nearly a decade.

During this time 74 cases of fatal and non-fatal heart attack or acute angina, or death from ischaemic heart disease, occurred.

All the participants were asked to rate the leadership style of their senior managers on competencies such as how clearly they set out goals for their staff and how good they were at communicating and giving feedback.

The staff who deemed their senior managers to be the least competent had a 25% higher risk of a serious heart problem.

And those working for what was classed as a long time - four years or more - had a 64% higher risk.

The findings held true, regardless of educational attainment, social class, income, workload, lifestyle factors, such as smoking and exercise, and other risk factors for heart disease, such as high BLOOD PRESURE.
