What is an Addiction(R) - We are addicted to a substance or an activity when we repeatedly crave for it and would go to great lengths (often even detrimental to our well being) to obtain or experience it. Addictions can be to substances such as alcohol and drugs or even to activities such as gambling and sex. When the consequences for indulging in an activity are significant and the substantial price paid for continuing it is not worth the reward, that activity is termed as an addiction. The range of negative addictions is wide - for some, the consequences are very minor, while for others the consequences can even be life threatening. It may astonish you to know that addictions can also be positive in nature. Reasons to Quit Smoking - Reduced risk of cancer Smoking causes cancer. We've all heard that. Everyone knows that lung cancer is one of the most devastating side effects of smoking. However, what is less known is that it puts smokers at risk of many other types of cancers as well, for example, mouth cancer, cancer of the larynx (voice box), bladder, pancreas and cervix among several others. Physical Effects of Withdrawal From Tobacco - The most commonly felt effects of physical withdrawal from tobacco smoking are feelings of anger, depression, anxiety and restlessness. A chain smoker's body experiences sharply rising and falling levels of nicotine on a daily basis. In the withdrawal stage, these cycles are coming to an end. Over years, the nicotine literally takes control of about 200 neurochemicals in the brain. The brain is slowly regaining control of these. This causes the intense emotional effects mentioned above. Within the first 72 hours of withdrawal, if a user abstains totally from nicotine, they will begin to feel the gradual effects of recovery. The brain is now getting used to being lavished with nicotine-free oxygen. During the early stages of withdrawal, time seems to drag endlessly. The first few weeks are interminable. Hydrocodone Addiction - Do you feel anxious about getting your prescription filled before it runs out? Do you need to take more pills than before to achieve the effect you desire? Do you get your prescriptions from many doctors? Perhaps you are, like many others, a sufferer of a drug addiction. One of the most common addictions in the American society today is a relatively unheard of drug called hydrocodone. So, why haven't you heard of it before? Because, pure hydrocodone is seldom sold on its own. Why is hydrocodone addiction so common? Evidence shows that hydrocodone addiction is increasing amongst habitual users in the United States. Hydrocodone Addiction - A Rising Crisis - Commonly prescribed for its effectiveness as an analgesic or pain reliever, addiction to hydrocodone is today being viewed as a mounting crisis. While addiction to illicit drugs, like cocaine, marijuana and heroin that claim national headlines ever so often, is widely talked about, we scarcely know about hydrocodone abuse and addiction. Heroin Addiction - The Basics - Heroin is a highly addictive, illegal drug. It among the most abused and fastest acting of the opiates (opiates, also called narcotics, are a family of drugs which are used in the medical profession to relieve pain, but are also highly abused due to this very property). It induces a feeling of intense ecstasy and brings on this effect with rapidity, making it the drug of choice among recreational users seeking a quick 'rush'. It is more often than not injected. Alternatively, it can also be sniffed, snorted or smoked. Effects of Cocaine - Cocaine has enormously devastating side effects which can eventually be fatal. It acts extremely rapidly and its short term side effects can even be experienced by a person who has used it just once. Its long term side effects gradually show up after repeated use, and their intensity depends upon the duration and quantity of use. The short term side effects of cocaine, although not always harmful, have occasionally been known to cause grave harm. Some of these are: · Increase in blood pressure · Contracted blood vessels · Dilated pupils · Heightened mental alertness · Boosted energy levels · Increase in heart rate · Reduced appetite · Increase in body temperature The feeling of increased energy is what hooks first time cocaine users to the drug. It gives them a quick 'rush', more energy, less need for sleep and heightened physical endurance. Coping With An Addiction - It is most important to stay motivated during the process of recovery. It helps to make a list of benefits, or advantages of quitting the addictive behavior. These should be benefits that are very valuable to you - valuable enough to turn your back on the addiction. Setbacks will occur and should be viewed as opportunities to learn. Coping with the intense urges and cravings is perhaps the greatest challenge for most individuals. In the case of substance abuse in particular, the drug radically alters the brain by literally taking control of certain neuro chemicals. It is important to understand the temporary nature of the urges. Background of Password Cracking - Passwords to access computer systems are usually stored, in some form, in a database in order for the system to perform password verification. To enhance the privacy of passwords, the stored password verification data is generally produced by applying a one-way function to the password, possibly in combination with other available data. For simplicity of this discussion, when the one-way function does not incorporate a secret key, other than the password, we refer to the one way function employed as a hash and its output as a hashed password. Even though functions that create hashed passwords may be cryptographically secure, possession of a hashed password provides a quick way to verify guesses for the password by applying the function to each guess, and comparing the result to the verification data.
