Why do we age? The answer to this question is critical to our ability to prevent and treat highly age-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease that now cause the deaths of most people in the developed world. This short book provides an overview of biological aging theories including history, current status, major scientific controversies, and implications for the future of medicine. Major topics include: human mortality as a function of age, aging mechanisms and processes, the programmed vs. non-programmed aging controversy, empirical evidence on aging, and the feasibility of anti-aging and regenerative medicine. Evolution theory is essential to aging theories. Theorists have been struggling for 150 years to explain how aging, deterioration, and consequent death fit with Darwin’s survival of the fittest concept. This book explains how continuing genetics discoveries have produced changes in the way we think about evolution that in turn lead to new thinking about the nature of aging. [more]

Most gislers seem to understand eternal youth, but not Doelan. He cannot tell his elders apart from many of the children, and yet he knows that like all gislers he will stop ageing at fifteen. That's not the problem. The problem is that when the other gisler children find out they start making fun of him. Doelan is a misfit with only one friend. He can handle that usually, but there is another problem. Doelan has been seeing goblins around the village. He thinks he's imagining things at first, but quickly comes to the conclusion that something is wrong, and that the goblins are real. Trouble is, misfit that Doelan has always been, will anyone believe him? [more]

“Closer Than Breathing” is a full length novel which, among the characters, includes gay men and lesbians leading busy lives. It tells the story of Ben, a young gay man new to the metropolis, who is confronted by a series of odd, eccentric people, including drug dealers, goths, psychics, a veteran author, Loyd Larcher and ageing rock musicians Rick Schwagger and Heath Prityards. He survives the dangers of the world of sex, drugs and rock and roll, engaging all comers with goodwill and good humour. Making use of opportunities along the way to achieve success, he ghost writes a rock star’s autobiography, and finds true love with a level headed and down to earth boyfriend. Together they deal with life’s distractions, enticements and challenges. Whilst the ‘straight’ world around them becomes ever more weird and out of control, the couple are determined to be true to themselves and each other. [more]

Tge book reveals the shocking fraud of our ageing leaders are the billions of currencies loots siphoned to their coffers and the castigation of the YOUTHS as advocates of governments of UTOPIA . They in comparisons abuse their office and pummeled the global polity to endless crises of anarchy, economic sodom and political gomorah, only to wish their so called experiences gathered at higher costs on their people and littered the global economy with their dubious assets. As President and Commander-in-Chief, my war of words are temporary as I am easily consoled by the compromises of stands in tandem with the reasonable conclusions of my revered critics and submissions of my subordinates in the corridors of power. These are no weakness but my attempts to justify all ends via negotiations and to carry ALL along the path of JUSTICE, FAIR DEALS and GOOD GOVERNANCE [more]

It's 2023, the year in which they promised us a better year for everyone, prosperity after the dark days of COVID, recovery of the market and investment in society. What we got was the rich getting richer and the world's governments turning against their populations, economic disaster entwined with natural disasters bringing hardship to the ever increasing disgruntled humans. This is a book of poetry written by the prolific Darren Hobson inspired by 2023 and its numerous tragedies and his personal quest for survival due to personal self inflicted agonies of alcoholism and anxiety, the never ending feeling of worthlessness and his fragile self-esteem. Can the poet rise to the challenge of survival after he thought that everything was lost, as the cold bite of loneliness gnaws at his ageing limbs, as society and right wing mannerisms corrode his wellbeing, when he hits rock bottom can he find the will to climb out of his misery?

Aluminium is the third most abundant element (after oxygen and silicon), and the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust. Aluminium is remarkable for the metal's low density and for its ability to resist corrosion due to the phenomenon of passivation. Structural components made from aluminium and its alloys are vital to the aerospace industry and are important in other areas of transportation and structural materials Welding plays a crucial role or say as a back bone of manufacturing industry to join the components. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a relatively new joining process that has been demonstrated in a variety of metals such as steel, titanium, lead, copper and aluminium. The unique properties of friction stir welds make possible some completely new structural designs with significant impact to ship design and construction. Friction stir welding is especially advantageous for joining aluminium and has been exploited commercially around the world in several industries. In the present work the effects of welding speed have been investigated on the microstructural and mechanical properties of friction stir welded aluminium alloy 6063. FSW was carried out at rotational speed of 1300 rpm (constant) and transverse speeds of 35, 50 and 65 mm/min. Mechanical performance has been investigated in terms of hardness, wear resistance and tensile strength. To study the effect of post welding heat treatment on properties of friction stir welded joint, the artificial ageing was carried out at 1600 C for a soaking period of 20 hours in the muffle furnace. The study revealed that friction stir welded joint prepared at welding speed of 35 mm/min exhibited better tensile strength, hardness and wear resistance. Better mechanical properties of the joint prepared at welding speed of 35 mm/min may be attributed due to fine, homogeneous and equaxed grain structure of stir zone. Post welding heat treatment of friction stir welded joint improved the wear resistance and microhardness of the joint. However tensile properties deteriorated with the post welding heat treatment of joint. [more]
