There was a time when the Internet was a much simpler place. But in recent times, the need has risen to pay more attention to your online privacy. Anyone who has looked up online privacy has come across VPN or Virtual Private Networks that serve to encrypt your connections and mask your IP addresses.
While searching for VPN providers for desktops and laptops are very popular, knowledge about Android VPN devices are not so widespread. If you want to tap into the benefits of downloading torrents anonymously on your Android devices, then this information will be of great help to you.
The Two Types of Torrent Downloaders
For Android, there are two types of torrent downloaders.
The torrent standalone apps
These are basically the Android version of their desktop counterparts. They provide all the functions that their clients do on the desktop, and they use your internet connection to download torrents directly to your Android device.
Remote Control Apps
In this case, you do not actually download the Torrent apps, but you use them to control your desktop torrent clients through your Android device.
If you’re using the first option, you need to use a VPN for your Android internet connection. But if you are using the second one, the torrent isn’t downloaded to your android device, and you will need to secure your desktop connection instead.
Android VPN apps
While you get quite a lot of VPN apps from Google Play, recent researches have shown that quite a significant number of them are suspicious. In fact, there were third-party trackers on 67% of them, while 38% of them contained some kind of malware. This study was conducted by CSIRO’s Data 61, University of New South Wales, and UC Berkley researchers.
What was more concerning was that many had a 4-star and above rating and others showed over five hundred thousand downloads. While there were very few negative reviews in these apps, most users seem to trust these apps enough to confidently download them on their Android phones.
Some of the detected VPN apps were SuperVpn, OkVpn, EasyVpn, Betternet, ArchieVpn, CrossVpn, HatVpn, sFly Network Booster, Fast Secure Payment and One Click VPN. 82% of such apps request permission to access sensitive and personal information which poses a serious security and privacy concern for Android VPN app users.
There were also observations of IPv6 leaks and DNS leaks. Thus, it is best to avoid such apps. Here is a list of some recommended VPN apps for safe and secure use of your Android torrents.
- IPVanish
- TorGuard
- Private Internet Access
These VPN providers are reputed both for desktop torrents as well as for Android torrent users. You just need to download these apps, open them and enter your login information, choose a server and click “connect”.

Depending on the nature of the preparation of raw mix the following methods of Portland cement production are distinguished: wet, dry and combinative one. Each of these methods has its own features, strengths and weak points. In mid-developed economies cement plants focus on wet method, while more developed companies that either produce or closely cooperate with manufacturers, like a UK-based Telling Company, actively utilising hydraulic lime, lime mortar and Portland concrete solutions, are restructuring the technology to more economical fuel consumption – dry and combinative methods.
In the wet process the raw material mixture is ground in a ball mill in the presence of large amounts of water (up to 36-42% by weight solids) to give a flowable mass, which is called sludge. From sludge basin-7 mass is directed to firing in the rotary kiln wet method is useful when used as components of chalk, clay crude that reduces power consumption for grinding the raw material mixture.
In this method the transportation of raw materials and stirring the mixture is facilitated, but the fuel consumption on firing it in a furnace is 1.5-2 times more resource-intensive than in the dry process. In the dry method, dry powder is prepared through mixing raw material (the so-called raw meal), which is calcined in a rotary kiln.

At present there are two fundamentally different methods of conversion of high-frequency electric oscillations in mechanical ones. The processed is carried out either with piezoceramic or magnetostrictive transducers (emitters).
Piezoceramic transducers are based on the properties of the piezoelectric crystals which change their shape under the influence of an electrical voltage.
The operating principle of magnetostrictive transducers are based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. These devices represent an induction coil within which the moving core is formed. Both types of radiators have their advantages and disadvantages. Hilsonic experts, the company concentrating its effort on ultrasonic cleaner equipment production have worked hard to assess both technologies… and this is why they chose the piezoceramic devices.
Energy efficiency
Piezoelectric transducers demonstrate unsurpassed effectiveness due to the mechanism of action: electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy directly. The energy loss percentage in the ceramic typically doesn’t exceed 5%. This means that 95% of the electrical energy supplied by the transducer, is to perform a useful function (cleaning). Contemporary ultrasound generators used in conjunction with piezoceramic radiators have an efficiency of at least 70%. Magnetostrictive systems operate on the basis of dual-energy conversion, which inevitably leads to a decrease in efficiency. Electric effect converted into a magnetic field and then to mechanical energy. Energy losses due to the effectiveness of magnetostrictive emitters do not exceed 50%. Generators designed to supply magnetostrictive transducers with power, even with a good tune, basically have an efficiency greater than 70%. (more…)

Single component polyurethanes are more technological in comparison with two-component epoxies and polyurethane compounds. Cured due to moisture in the substrate and the surrounding atmosphere, single component polyurethanes solve the problem of corrosion protection way more effectively, eliminating the underlying cause of corrosion under the coating film through using the moisture adsorbed on the surfaces for its polymerisation.
Epoxy resins and alkyd paints retain or block the moisture under the cover and in the pores of the substrate. This moisture will expand during freezing, causing a loss of adhesion of the epoxy resin or an alkyd varnish and blistering and peeling of the old paint layer with subsequent complete loss of its function. As for moisture-curing polyurethane materials, the fact should be underlined that they capture and remove moisture from the layer of rust and absorb atmospheric moisture to cure and create a holistic anti-corrosion coating with high adhesion to the surface. Thus, there is no integrity destruction danger during freezing and thawing of the anti-corrosive coating because of absence of moisture under the cover.
Single polyurethane coatings: spheres of application
Due to the impressive lifecycle of anticorrosion coatings, from 5 to 15 years and above, the materials are used for corrosion protection in a sweeping variety of industries, including:
- Oil (tanks, pipelines, pumping stations, machinery and equipment)
- Roof waterproofing, reinforcing, roof coating
- Shipbuilding (underwater parts of ships and superstructure, port facilities, offshore platforms)
- Chemical (reactors, tanks, equipment)
- Mountain ( tunnels , sewers , machinery and equipment)
- Construction and repairing (bridges , highways, buildings)
- Water management and wastewater treatment
- Ferrous and nonferrous metallurgy; mechanical engineering
Polyshield coating under the microscope
Polyshield is produced in a good number of variants with various properties of the resulting coating and its waterproofing capabilities in particular. The materials are used in laying new or repairing old roofing and metal coatings for protection from UV exposure and mechanical destruction of polyurethane thermal insulation coatings on walls and roofs of buildings and structures. As stated by Britannia Paints, a seasoned roof waterproofing business players with 10+ years of successful track record, polyshield is an ideal roof coating material, oftentimes applied to the screed, pool, septic tank and reservoir systems.
With impressive strength characteristics and abrasion resistance finds its application in waterproofing the components designed to sustain heavy loads (bridge structures and overpasses) and subjected to extreme conditions (that’s why Polyshield is implemented in roof waterproofing projects). The material is also utilised in building water treatment plants, tunnels, underground garages, parking lots and sumps.

Flanged connections require special attention because of the exposure to corrosion. Therefore, a regular maintenance will prevent the destruction of fasteners and flanges themselves that have a positive impact on the durability of the entire pipeline as a whole. Of course, apart from basic requirement of making use of reliable, solidly-crafted stainless steel flanges and tube plates by a decent vendor (e.g. AlexanderComley with facilities located in the United Kingdom), the engineers should keep in mind the natural long-term processes.
Most often, the pipeline begins to break down at the molecular level after welding, but there are ways to ensure the safety flange connections: it can be done using the inhibitors, the use of corrosion-resistant materials, cathodic protection and protective coatings.

St. John’s wort, perhaps, the crown of the herbal remedies for depression, contains a range of components with proven biological activity. The scientists believe that the unparalleled action is achieved due to a synergy of components, rather than a particular substance. These components are hypericin, pseudohypericin, quercetin, hyperin and xanthones. Unfortunately, long-term studies are needed to identify the components that guarantee the action and to standardize preparations that include this plant.
By analogy with Natural Health care hub, being skeptical on a range of items pointed out in the article, let us shares its own version of herbal remedies for depression pantheon.

An individual sustained an injury as a result of an accident is eligible to submit a claim, if an injury is suffered through the fault of a 3rd party. Actually, a mostly transparent mechanism is oftentimes underestimated by the potential consumers, which is nothing but a result of a lack of competence on the principles of its function. Thus, in aspiration to protect the budget from additional expenses, people tend to give up the idea of submitting accident claims. Today with solicitors.guru website we prepared an explanation of how no win no fee solicitors work.
A no win no fee system has been brought to effect to protect an individual from upfront payments and increase the chances for receiving compensation. Therefore, a person can hire a solicitor and proceed to filing the claim with practically no risks for their financial condition.
No Win No Fee true meaning
Nowadays, despite the introduction of major changes in regulation, finding a solicitor working on ‘no win no fee’ basis is almost a no-brainer. So what does it look like? Visit Solicitors Guru, the platform gathering legal companies accross the UK under one roof and filter results by ‘no win no fee’ parameter. Find the lawyer that offers the most suitable terms and proceed with your claim – no fees are required to be paid in overwhelming majority of cases: if a solicitor fails to win the case, you will not have to cover legal expenses. In the words of one syllable, the agency or an individual is ready take on all the risks of your case. In return, if a claim is approved, you will have to pay a ‘success fee’.
So how it works?
A true to type ‘no win no fee agreement’ implies rewarding a solicitor only if the case is won; in this scenario a part of the compensation is transferred to the lawyer. Starting from April, 2013, a solicitor is allowed to establish a percentage of the damage a customer recovers, which is called a ‘success fee’. The fee may equal up to 25% of the compensation provided to recover the injury suffered.
Before proceeding to the case, the agency requests signing an arrangement, also called Conditional Fee Agreement. The arrangement represents a formal, legal document describing the terms of agreement between both parties. Check the payment terms section before signing a document and request comprehensive information on all the surcharges and extra fees applicable.
