In this article the network security mechanisms used by host layers and the network layer of the OSI model are discussed. Many years ago, the existence of intruders was not established, therefore the security protocols of these layers were designed accordingly. But in present times, these protocols may not hold much significance. Therefore it is needed that we either change them, or enhance them further. There are only few instructions available for secure programming and we have almost negligible resources for secure protocol designing. It is required to study the current solutions available and also for choosing some universally accepted Patterns.

The identification of affective text deals with analysis of the document at the level of feeling appraisals of multi-word terms, with application to the issue of sentence polarity/ semantic introduction discovery. Textual information mining deals with various information extraction methods that can be evolved from the rapid growth of textual information. The problem of emotions from text is concerned with the fast development of web 2.0 documents that are assigned by users with emotion labels namely sadness, surprise, happiness, empathy, anger, warmness, boredom, amusement, etc. Beginning from a various leveled compositional strategy for creating sentence appraisals, we extend the model by including multi-word terms that can catch non-compositional semantics. The emotional appraisals for N-gram terms of distinctive requests are evaluated.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose concentration (hyperglycemia) caused by insulin deficiency often combined with insulin resistance (Rang and Dale, 2008). The Diabetes Mellitus has been rise across the world affecting over 150 million people. Over 20% diabetics are Indians. At present, it is higher in developed than in developing countries. The number of adults with diabetes in the world will rise from 135 million in 1995 to 300 million in the year 2025. The major part of this numerical increase will occur in developing countries. By the year 2025, greater than 75% of people with diabetes will reside in developing countries.

The very purpose of the paper is to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of rural degree colleges of Assam and to identify the various factors to enhance the proper utilization of opportunities.

In this paper, we recommend a framework for Face recognition Structure 3D using segmentation by grouping of district of facial images previously and after fusion of double modalities (intensity and depth images). Earlier, the finding of face region is depending on the localization of the nose tip and integral projection curves. Then, the appearances resulting from Basis Component Analyses (BCA) followed by Expand Fisher Model (EFM) are extracted. Finally, the distribution function is performed with double approach, distance measurement L and Support Vector Appliance (SVA). Experiments are performed on the CASIA 3D face information base which contains 123 persons under varying illumination and expression. We have tried to examine all the variables associated with our technique in order to optimize the ultimate our recognition structure. The promising reaction of the preliminary evaluation appearance that our confirm approach achieves a large recognizance performance.

Financial inclusion entails not just the availability of financial products - credit, deposit, insurance, etc. but also the ability to transfer money around in an affordable manner. As a result of the bank nationalization programme and the government’s efforts to increase bank branches in rural and remote areas, the national distribution of financial has increased. Innovative approaches in financial inclusion like using conventional branches (banks or microfinance institutions), information and communication technologies, non-bank retail agents (post-offices) has helped in the deepening of the financial sector. The nationalization of banks, Lead Bank Scheme, Regional Rural Banks, formation of SHG’s has helped to expand the financial sector across the length and breadth of the country. According to RBI, deepening of the financial sector is essential for a developed and mature economy. Financial deepening is only possible when individuals and households are financially literate to make informed choices about how they should save, borrow, and invest. With this background the present study attempts to study the status of financial inclusion of women in India.

We are human being it is not end of it all. Humanity sometimes feels orphaned. It is forgetfulness of the divine which is in us, which is responsible for so much distress and disappointment which we have in this world.

We as human beings are full of discords and difficulties we are much bigger than mineral, plants, animals etc. The human being has to become something superhuman. He has to become, realize the spark which is there in his nature, we have to raise our present state of imperfection, ignorance, to a state of tranquility of spirit and equanimity of mind where we look upon all human beings or our kindred as member of one family.

But there is no inner unity in mind and spirit. The life of man has become artificial. Man has last the zest-for life. He suffers from sickness of spirit. Hence there is need of renewal of faith a renaissance of spiritual values. Man cannot be simply a helpless victim in the hands of world forces. Man has the determination to go beyond his present life and stay on the truth of his being. The world passes through the different phases of evolution, matter life consciousness. Man is more than matter life or mind or all these put together. Man is aware of the limitations of his physical nature. Man is also spirit.

Policies and programmes should simultaneously seek to increase women’s confidence, awareness, negotiation ability, literacy, health, as well as women’s vocational, entrepreneurial and management skills, to enable micro finance inputs to translate into sustained empowerment. The costs of enabling that empowerment through extensive training inputs and other strategies need to be considered a necessary and direct cost commitment of all micro credit based programmes.

SHG approach is the key element of social mobilization being devoid of bureaucratization and politicization. It provides credit to rural women on easy term with access to several income generating activities.
