Keats’ La Belle Dame Sans Merci (1819) is cast in ballad form and is beautifully arranged in lyrical stanzas. The title of the poem means “The Beautiful Lady Without Mercy’ and points to the poignant tale of love in the poet’s personal life. It is a well-known fact that Keats’ long-cherished desire of getting united in love with his dream girl, Fanny Brawne, could not be realised because of his fatal disease resulting in great despair for him. Speaking of this despair, John Middleton Murry has aptly remarked: “Death and poverty—either of these might deprive him of the possession of his live…. So….. Keats passed through the ecstasy of love to the ecstasy of despair, a despair deeper than any he had felt before, a despair as 1 deep as any that man can feel.” The dreaded disease---consumption—had already taken away the precious life of his brother Thomas in December, 1818, and he was also in its inescapable grip, sensing his imminent death and dissolution. The poem La Belle Dame Sans Merci brings to the fore Keats’ longing for love and life in an indirect manner.

In life we expect one thing and get its exact opposite, and what we get is not only unexpected, it is also the undesired. Life’s little ironies make Narayan’s novels, tragi-comedies of mischance and misdirection, and The Guide is no exception to this general rule. It is also a study of life’s little ironies enacted against the backdrop of Malgudi.

Organisations are today suffering from a malaise of data overflow. The developments in the transaction processing technology has given rise to a situation where the amount and rate of data capture is very high, but the processing of this data into information that can be utilised for decision making, is not developing at the same pace. Data warehousing and data mining (both data & text) provide a technology that enables the decision-maker in the corporate sector/govt. to process this huge amount of data in a reasonable amount of time, to extract intelligence/knowledge in a near real time.

English is one of the most beneficial languages inthe world. It can even be said to be the easiest link language. Other languages are imperative also, but not for same reasons from English are critical. English is imperative since it is the main language that truly interfaces the entire world together as far as education, health, technology and commerce. Notwithstanding English, the entire world may not be as united as it is today. Alternate languages might be critical for their interesting values and culture. English can be used as a language in any part of the world, nonnative speakers of English around the world actually out member the native speakers.

Geminiviruses infect large number of economically important crop plants and cause a devastating yield loss. These are a group of ss-DNA viruses with unique twined icosahedral virus particles. This is the largest genus of plant viruses. Yield losses depend on the growing stage at which infection occurs and ranges from 50-95%. Reduction in exploitable genetic changes for virus resistance in crop germplasm, emergence of disease resistance breaking virus strains, increase in virus vector populations, environmental conditions and emergence of new biotypes in the recent years have made it mandatory to explore alternative means for incorporating virus resistance/tolerance in crop plants. Much progress has been achieved to protect plants against RNA and DNA virus infections using breeding and biotechnological tools.
