| SILIGURI IS CHANGING (?): UTTORAYON TOWNSHIP AND  THE PROSPECTS AND PROBLEMS OF URBANISATION IN  NORTH BENGAL | 
| Author : Gopal Sharma | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           One of the most recent and important phenomena observed in India is the           formation of urban agglomeration, which is defined as geographic concentration of           urban population and economic activities. But, there are both positive and negative           impacts of urbanisation. On the one hand urbanisation leads to prosperity and           development on the other hand it creates a big gap in between rural and urban facilities.           The present paper is trying to highlights the prospects and problems of urbanisation with           special reference to Uttorayon Township in Siliguri, district Darjeeling in the state of           West Bengal. The study is based on 50 randomly selected respondents (30 males and 20           females). This is a field based study, with the help of prepared questionnaires and           interview schedules the informations and relevant data were collected. The sampling           methods for choosing the respondents are purposive random sampling. The socioeconomic and psychological status of the respondents before and after rehabilitation           (From Chandmoni Tea Estate to Subalvita) have been analysed thoroughly.          |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           This study aims at analysing Jagmohan Mundra's film Bwander: the sand           storm along with the real story of Bhanwari Devi in the background on a relatively recent           act of violence perpetrated on women in India. Bawander is based on a true incident.           is a potter from the village of Bhateri near Jaipur, Rajasthan; who was           gang-raped by five high-class men of her village in 1992. She is still waiting for justice           after twenty years, as all the accused were acquitted in 1995. Set in a Gurjjar Community           of Rajasthan, the film has depicted a series of events a woman have to suffer physically           and psychologically in the society after the gang-rape. Bawander is something that           provokes thought for a woman who laudably has sought justice despite the horrible           factors testing her faith.          |

| ISLAMIC BANKING & ITS SCOPE IN INDIA | 
| Author : Muteeb Sharique | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Banking is the need of our time. It should be a continuous effort that maximum           people involve themselves in the banking system. In this process, Interest Free Islamic           Banking can play an important role, and recently the Kerala High Court has given an           important judgment regarding this issue and now we may hope that a large number of           people interested in interest free banking in India will involve themselves in the process           of Islamic Banking.           The potential for Islamic Banking in India lies in these two points namely India           could be a significant market for Islamic Banking Institutions due to its large Muslim           population and however, it is still subject to a favorable change in regulatory           environment and increased awareness among Muslims and India.          |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           The development of the embryo and eventually of the adult from the fertilized           ovum is an extremely complicated process. The history of embryology is interesting and           full of nebulous ideas, often tinctured with religious beliefs; nor is this to be wondered at,           for the coming into the world of a new human being is heavily charged with emotional           and theological implications.          |

| SATI SYSTEM: STATUS OF WOMAN IN  ANCIENTKARNATAKA | 
| Author : Balappa Mallappa Kattelegere | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           The research article enlighten on sati system and status of woman in ancient           Karnataka particularly, in Gulbarga and Yadagir. Archaeological department have been           found many Maasti stones in and around Karnataka. When we search in north           Karnataka number of Maasti stones in Raichur, Bellary, Gulbarga and Yadgir. Sati           wasprevalent among certain classes of women, who either took the vow or deemed it a           great honor to die on the funeral pyres of their husbands. Ibn Battuta observed that Sati           was considered praiseworthy by the Hindus, without however being obligatory. The Agni           Purana declares that the woman who commits sahagamana goes to heaven and           Medhatiti pronounced that Sati was like suicide and was against the Shastras. In an age           of such divergent views, women of the Deccan followed a middle path. They were not           coerced, although several wives committed Sati. The majority of the widows did not           undergo Sati. Mahasati stones were erected in memory of brave women who committed           Sati and are periodically worshipped. The number of such stones is a few, indicating a           small number of such women. The status of woman in ancient Karnataka was very poor.           There are no instances of remarriage of widows          |

| SPIROMETRY: A USEFUL TOOL FOR EARLY DETECTION  OF SMALL AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION IN SMOKERS | 
| Author : Amit Kant Singh,Narsingh Verma,Ramji Singh and Preeti Tyagi | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Background: Cigarette smoking causes small airway obstruction (SAO) and is the           harbinger of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) the prevalence           of SAO varies with amount of smoking. Respiratory symptoms are reported to be not           reliable for determining early airway obstruction Objective: To find out the relationship           of respiratory symptoms and amount of smoking with small airway obstruction (SAO)           detected by using spirometer among the smokers. Materials and Methods: 100 male           adult current smokers performed the spirometry test. Results of Forced Expiratory Flow           rate at 25-75% (FEF25 –75 %), Forced expiratory volume in 1st second (FEV1) and           percentage ratio of FEV1 to forced vital capacity (FVC) i.e., (FEV1/FVC)% were used           for determining SAO. A modified validated questionnaire was used for labeling           respiratory symptoms of obstructive nature. Statistical analysis was done to test           independence of symptom with SAO, and also of amount of smoking (in pack year) with           presence of SAO. Result: 37% of the total study group (n=100) were detected as having           SAO and 49% of the total as having one or more respiratory symptoms. 29.2 % of the           smokers who smoked less than 3 pack years (n= 65) were detected having SAO whereas           51.4 % were observed among those smoking more than 10 pack years ( n= 35). SAO           varies directly with pack year significantly (p<0.05) Association of respiratory           symptoms with SAO were not significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this           study revealed that SAO is common among smokers and can be detected by spirometry a           simple tool for screening at early stage.          |

| Author : Amar Nath , Kumar Shalender and Nripendra Singh | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           This research paper aims to highlight the key role of one of the components of           value chain; service in community development through effective management of waste.           Also this study provides a conceptual model leading to effective management of waste           through the use of 3R approach (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) along with contributing to           community development. For this purpose study draws on extensive literature review           along with various case studies. Secondary data, generated through the in-depth           interviews, is also used to conclude the study. Study found that with the innovative use of           3R approach an organization can effectively meet its both obligations related to profit           and society. This not only helps in projecting the positive image of the organization in the           minds of its target customers but also helps it in contributing towards the overall           development of community.          |

| SELF-EMPLOYED WOMEN IN GULBARGA SLUM  AREA: ISSUES AND CHALLENGES | 
| Author : Shakuntala Ranganagouda and Vijaylaxmi Birdar | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           In the history of human development, woman has been as important as man. In           fact, the status, employment and work performed by women in society is the indicator of a           nation's overall progress. Without the participation of women in national activities, the           social, economical or political progress of a country will be stagnated. The hands that           rock the cradle, may though, as the myth goes have not yet ruled the world. The fact is           that most of the women's domestic role is combined with economic activities and           utilization of their skill and labour to earn the extra income for the family, which makes           the difference between a reasonably decent survival and humiliating poverty.           Women constitute half of the humanity, even contributing two-thirds of world's           work hours. She earns only one-third of the total income and owns less than one-tenth of           the world's resources. This shows that the economic status of women is in pathetic           condition and this is more so in a country like India.           One of the major challenge of the self-employed women in Gulbarga Slum area           is that lack of financial support of the Governmental and Non-Governmental           Organization and issue is that family support, finance, and occupation of mobility. This           paper specially focuses problem facing Self-Employed women failed to support by           Government and Non-governmental Schemes for development of self-employed women           in Gulbarga slum area which is comes in North Karnataka          |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :The rapid expansion of banking facilities is to help the financial sustainability, optimise the indigenous financial resource and promote financial inclusion the effort made by in RRBs branches expansion, deposit mobalisation, rural development, credit disbursement to small and marginalised section of rural areas are appreciable. The RRBs have taken a major step for rural households to come near to banking facilities. This paper attempts to analyses the issues of regional rural banks growth in India and Karnataka. The analysis reveals that credit borrowing, loan advances, branches, credit deposit ratios continue to be unsatisfactory. It appears that the RRBs are still hesitant on various grounds to purvey credit to small and marginalized farmers. The study period covers 1990-2010 and the data has been analysed with the help of Annual Growth and Compound Annual Growth Rate model and some descriptive statistical tools of selected RRBs factors. The overall result shows that RRBs growth was not very healthy position in India and Karnataka. |

| DIVEDEND POLICY: A REVIEW OF THEORIES | 
| Author : Renu Gulia | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           The literature on dividend policy has produced a large body of theoretical and           empirical research, especially following the publication of the dividend irrelevance           hypothesis of Miller and Modigliani (1961). No general consensus has yet emerged after           several decades of investigation, and scholars can often disagree even about the same           empirical evidence. This paper aims at providing the reader with a comprehensive           understanding of dividends and dividend policy by reviewing the main theories and           explanations of dividend policy including dividend irrelevance hypothesis of Miller and           Modigliani, bird-in-the-hand, tax-preference, clientele effects, signalling, and agency           costs hypotheses. However, due to the enduring nature and extensive range of the debate           about dividend policy which has spawned a vast amount of literature that grows by the           day, a full review of all debates is not feasible. The paper reaches at a conclusion that the           famous statement of Fisher Black about dividend policy "the harder we look at the           dividends picture, the more it seems like a puzzle, with pieces that just do not fit together"           (Black, 1976, p. 5) is still valid.          |

| Author : Roopshikha , Esther Ngaihte | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :The US housing sector has been at the core of the financial crisis in recent times. It began due to the presence of a housing bubble from 2005-06. The inability to finance aggressive mortgages taken at the height of the bubble meant an increase in foreclosures. This paper tries to model the major determinants of housing sales through econometric model, to see which variables are significant in explaining it. We try to give a (ex-post) forecast of what is to come in the next year. We compare it with the actual values to check the accuracy of our model. |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           To anyone following Dalit history and politics in Uttar Pradesh, the past month           should have presented an extraordinary challenge. Consider three images from this time.           First, of an earnest Rahul Gandhi stopping over for meals at Dalit bastis as part of his           party's strategy to wrest back the Dalit vote from Chief Minister Mayawati. Second, of a           six- year-old Dalit girl being hurled into a fire in Mathura; the latest in a pattern of daily           assaults on the community. And third, of the Bahujan Samaj Party's five of five, punch-           packed performance in the April 2008 by- elections — a dazzling first-anniversary           reiteration of power and strength by Team Maya.          |

| ECOLOGICAL AND ANTI-CAPITALISTIC CONSCIOUSNESS  IN GEORGE ORWELL'S COMING UP FOR AIR | 
| Author : Arun Murlidhar Jadhav | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Ecological consciousness is major concern of ecocriticism that investigates the           relation between literature and environment. It believes that the natural world is a living,           sacred thing in which each individual feels closely attached to a particular place.           George Orwell was brought up in the socio-cultural environment of England. He liked           and loved the traditional English culture. However, when he observed the drastic change           in both agrarian and urban England he felt restless and decided to write on the effects of           industrialization and capitalism on traditional ways of life. Coming Up for Air is the           outcome of these feelings. It is mainly about Orwell's ecological and anti-capitalistic           consciousness. Like ecocriticism, anticapitalism also directs our attention upon the evils           of the rapid urbanization and industrial activity. In fact, the destruction of nature and           culture is the serious social problem of the modern industrialised society and Orwell has           demonstrated this through the difference between the traditional natural England and           modern capitalistic industrialised society. So the presentation of the estrangement of           man from nature and culture is the main subject of the novel and the root cause of this           estrangement is capitalism and industrialization. The main object of the article is to           show the loss of the natural environment and agrarian culture and the evils of the rapid           urbanization and industrial activity as depicted by George Orwell in Coming Up for Air.          |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Poojya Dr. Appaji, believe education is a “Bramhastra” (strong weapon as per           Hindu epics) as solve all kinds of problems and obstacles in individual and social           problems. Education is an only solution for the all problems of the nation.           “The teacher is a Brahma, the creator of the universe, he is God Vishnu protector, and he           is God Maheshwar destroyer. He is entire universe, salutations to him”. – Poojya Dr.           Appaji Believes from the soul.           One of the biggest problems that are faced by India is poverty. India the home of           400 million poor people living even below the poverty life and poverty causes many other           problems as well. Due to poverty the other problem which rose includes child labor,           crime propagation and population explosion as well. To achieve all the goals and to           become a modern state the solution is to reduce the poverty rate by increase the jobs ratio           and another thing which is important to give equal opportunities to every citizen and to           pay attention to increase the literacy rate as well. The other problems are gender           biasness, inflation, illiteracy, employment and .child labor and women harassments.           I feel the major problems India facing is Corruption which results into poverty           and transparency in jobs 2nd major problem is education. There is no doubt about it that           education system of our country is the toughest in the world but still we had archived the           65% of population educated. If the education system of country could have been achieve           even 90% literacy rate, if we would have tried honestly, and our nation also considered in           worlds developed country          |

| PRICE DISCOVERY AND INFORMATION TRANSMISSION  IN SPOT AND OPTIONS SEGMENTS FOR NSE 50:  AN EMPIRICAL STUDY | 
| Author : Piyush Pandey | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           In the absence of market imperfections or frictions, any new information is           expected to reflect in both spot and derivative market instantaneously but in reality this           hardly exists. The nature of the market microstructure results in a lead/ lag relationship           and one market acts a dominant while other acts a satellite market. In this study, we           examine the information transmission process between spot and options segments of the           NIFTY 50, benchmark index of India. The daily data files stretch from 1 April 2009 to 31           March 2014. Cointegration and related tools were used to examine the price discovery           process and it was found out that spot is the dominant trading platform vis-à-vis options           for NIFTY 50 index and price signals emanating from spot are being factored in by           speculators to hedge their risk in derivatives market. The findings are useful for           investment professionals, traders, regulators and academia.          |

| THE HISTORY OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING | 
| Author : Dipanjan Mukherjee | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Transportation engineering is the application of technology and scientific           principles to the planning, functional design, operation and management of facilities for           any mode of transportation in order to provide for the safe, efficient, rapid, comfortable,           convenient, economical, and environmentally compatible movement of people and           goods (transport). It is a sub-discipline of civil engineering and of industrial.           Transportation engineering is a major component of the civil engineering and           mechanical engineering disciplines, according to specialization of academic courses           and main competences of the involved territory.           The planning aspects of transport engineering relate to urban planning, and           involve technical forecasting decisions and political factors. Technical forecasting of           passenger travel usually involves an urban transportation planning model, requiring the           estimation of trip generation (how many trips for what purpose), trip distribution           (destination choice, where is the traveler going), mode choice (what mode is being           taken), and route assignment (which streets or routes are being used). More           sophisticated forecasting can include other aspects of traveler decisions, including auto           ownership, trip chaining (the decision to link individual trips together in a tour) and the           choice of residential or business location (known as land use forecasting). Passenger           trips are the focus of transport engineering because they often represent the peak of           demand on any transportation system.          |

Most of           them did not have the resources to follow the prescribed Government norms. Majority           companies did not give much priority for it or ethical code of conduct as they were tied           down by various constraints, such as finance, marketing, information technology and           counseling. The study drives that there is a need to popularize the concept of corporate           social responsibility among industries, as the benefits it can bring for them. The present           study has made an attempt to understand the status and progress and initiatives made by           large firms of India in context to CSR policy framing and implementation.

| IMPACT OF CELEBRITY ENDORSMENT ON CONSUMER BUYING BEHAVIOUR AND ON BRAND IMAGE | 
| Author : Sumita Jain | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Everyday consumers are exposed to thousands of voices and images in           magazines, newspapers, billboards, websites, radio and television, etc. Every brand           attempts to steal at least fraction of a person's time to inform him/her of the amazing and           different attributes of the product at hand. The challenge of the marketer is to find a hook           that will hold the subject's attention. In helping to achieve this, use of celebrity for           endorsement of a brand is widely used marketing strategy. In this modern age, people           tend to ignore all commercials and advertisements while flipping through the magazines           and newspapers or viewing TV. But even then, the glamour of a celebrity seldom goes           unnoticed. Thus, celebrity endorsement in advertisement and its impact on the overall           brand is of great significance. In this process, the companies hire celebrities from a           particular field to feature in its advertisement campaigns. The promotional features and           images of the product are matched with the celebrity image, which tends to persuade a           consumer to fix-up his choice from a variety of brands. Although this sounds pretty           simple, but the design of such campaigns and the subsequent success in achieving the           desired result calls for an in-depth understanding of the product, the brand objective,           choice of a celebrity, associating the celebrity with the brand, and a framework for           measuring the effectiveness.          |

We should           become happy, all should emancipate from the anxiety and agony, all should see the           prosperity and progress of others and none should suffer any pain. These are only           utopian sayings. Because of the graded inequality, the one section of Hindu society was           always remained unexploited and neglected, and even that was not considered as           touchable creature.          |

| GENDER BUDGETING INITIATIVES IN INDIA: A REVIEW | 
| Author : Madan Lal Singla | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Since long there was no specific allocation for women in the government           policies and programmes, therefore, it has not led to a noticeable empowerment of           women. Recently countries have realised that to remove gender gaps, persisting in all           societies, and to achieve empowerment of women, there is a need to look at government           budgets through gender lens. Gender budgeting is now recognised worldwide as a           powerful tool to achieve socio-economic empowerment of women. Gender responsive           budgeting actively addresses gender gaps in budget allocations, particularly in key           areas such as education, health, employment, access to resources, etc., and ensures that           government resources are allocated where they are most essential for the benefit of all.           The present paper is an attempt to study the gender budgeting initiatives taken in India          |

| STUDY OF NOISE POLLUTION FOR THREE  CONSECUTIVE YEARS DURING FESTIVAL SEASONS  IN VISAKHAPATNAM CITY, ANDHRA PRADESH (INDIA | 
| Author : D. Vijaya Kumar and A. Chaitanya Prabu | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           The Present paper deals with monitoring of noise pollution at different places of           Visakhapatnam City (India) on the night of Deepawali & Dec 24th night (Christmas),           Dec 31st night (New Year) festivals. Visakhapatnam is an industrial and sea port city           located on the east coast of India. A hospital (RCD hospital), residential area (Lawson's           Bay colony), traffic zone (Jagadamba junction, Andhra pradesh State Road Transport           Corporation Complex junction and Seethammadhara junction) and Industrial Zone           (Sea port) were chosen to monitor the noise levels. During the present study the noise           levels were measured with the help of sound meter. The noise pollution is decreasing           considerably for the last three years and it is recorded minimum in 2010 as compared to           2011 and 2012. The main reason of this decrement is the growing environment awareness           in the people of Visakhapatnam City. Needless to say, students of most of the school in           Visakhapatnam city now prefer to celebrate above mention festivals of lights without           sound and smoke. The campaign for eco-friendly Deepawali is expected to catch on with           people in Visakhapatnam city which has already demonstrated its commitment towards           environment conservation. Mainly fire crackers are used during festivals. The present           paper is an attempt to create awareness among the people of Visakhapatnam city about           the bitter truth of fire crackers.          |

| A ROLE OF WOMEN IN CHANGING SOCIETY | 
| Author : Bharati Revadkar | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           In most of the underdeveloped countries the girl child is discriminated against           and Indian is no exception. The causes are economical, social and religious. To find a           solution to the prevailing deplorable condition of girl children, the UNICEF has           declared 1990 as “The year of The Girl Child.” The intention is to focus the attention of           Governments and social institutions on the plight of the girls and to work towards the end           of discrimination among children on the basis of sex. However, most of the efforts of the           Government of India and social instituions doing surveys etc. Not much has been done to           change the situation at the ground level for the girl child. A real change in thecondition           of the girl child can be brought about only when the economic situation and social           outlook of the family are radically changed and enough money to send all children to           school, there will not be any question of discrimination against the girl child. And the           spread of education will dispel superstition & religious orthodoxy that bind women in           general & restrict the development of girl child.          |

| SARCOPHAGID AND CALLIPHORID FLIES OF FORENSIC  IMPORTANCE WITH REFERENCE TO THE DETERMINATION  OF POST MORTEM INTERVAL | 
| Author : Hanumant G. Sadafule and S. P. Zambare | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           It is very often that forensic investigator has to tell the time since death in case           where unknown dead bodies are found indoor as well as outdoor and in some cases           various types of container a wrapped in a variety of materials. These dead bodies           provide favorable site to different types of insect and flies for their growth. The adult           female flies began to lay egg within hour after the death of an individual, so it helps in           determining probable time of death since it shows a definite cycle. However exact time           depends on the species and the temperature humidity condition in the surrounding.           So a sound knowledge about life history of insect of an area is required before           this entomological information is put into practice for criminal investigation.          |

| TOWARDS ARCHITECTURAL MODEL TO  EXECUTABLE MODEL | 
| Author : R. Dhanalakshmi and A.Vidhya | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Representing structure, key properties, software systems and behavior needs a           high level abstraction for the software architectures. There are so many languages           present for describing the architectures that are under research, needs to get a maturity.           But there are only fewer amounts of techniques present for converting architecture to a           running system. It is not an easy way to convert the architecture's core element into a           system implementation perfectly. A solution that can be done is we can create an           architectural framework, which supports implementing, executing, evolving and           deploying. This paper supports in creating a framework, where we have some hands on           experience with the family of frameworks, which supports in implementation. These           frameworks that we have used are with different hard ware platforms, which include the           resources and the devices. Frameworks have the property of lightweight and also have           the property of extensibility, which helps in monitoring and analyzing the system at           runtime. The framework which we have used will resolve all the issues that are faced in           software architect for its implementation.          |

| Author : Remmin Jose and Babu D | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Background of the study:The nursing handover is a communication that occurs           between shifts of nurses. The specific purpose is to communicate information about           patients under the care of nurses. The handover directly or indirectly improves patient           care, increases safety, decreases patient questioning and increases the overall           satisfaction of the patient. It attempts to reduce errors and decreases morbidity and           mortality, with every staff caring for a patient, beginning from where the last staff left off           and being adequately informed to do so. The written guidelines or pre-prepared           handover sheets will help the nurses to handover the patient details in a structured and           informative way. The structured communication SBAR helps the nurses to give handover           in a clear and concise format.           Statement of the problem:Effectiveness of structured teaching programme on           knowledge regarding situation, background, assessment and recommendation (SBAR)           handover among staff nurses working in a selected hospital, Mangalore, Dakshina           kannada          |

| A CORRELATION STUDY OF TOTAL SALIVARY COUNTS  AND VIRULENT MARKERS OF STREPTOCOCCUS  MUTANS WITH CARIES EXPERIENCE | 
| Author : Gandhimathi C and Michael A | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           The aim of the study was to evaluate an impending relationship between           salivary Streptococcus mutans count, sucrose dependent glass adherence, and water           insoluble glucan synthesis of isolated strains of Streptococcus mutans with caries           experience among young adults between the age group of 20 to 23 years which may           enable future planning of caries prevention in adults. A total of 70 dental students           undergoing compulsory rotary internship were selected for the study based on certain           inclusion and exclusion criteria. After assessing DMFT and DMFS of the subjects,           stimulated saliva was collected for the above mentioned analysis. Statistical analysis           was done using student t test for comparing the means of the results of the two groups.           Before applying t test the variances of both the groups was tested using Levene's test.           Dental caries experience was correlated with sucrose dependent adherence insoluble           glucan production and salivary Streptococcus mutans count using Pearson Correlation.           Out of 70 adults only 10 were caries free, with DMFT = 0 and 60 adults presented with           caries experience who had DMFT of 3 to 8 with the mean value of 5.58 and DMFS of 13           to 24 with the mean value of 17.3. A strong correlation was found between DMFS and           water insoluble glucan synthesis and a positive correlation was also found between           DMFS and salivary Streptococcus mutans count. There was a highly significant           correlation between DMFT and adherence to glass and also water insoluble glucan           synthesis,          |

| MALE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF A BRACHYURAN  CRAB, SARMATIUM PUNCTATUM   (A. MILNE EDWARDS, 1875) | 
| Author : I. Sakunthala and A. Shyla Suganthi | 
| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           This paper envisages the morphology and function of the male reproductive           system in a brachyuran crab, Sarmatium punctatum using histological and           histochemical studies. The male reproductive system of S. punctatum comprises paired           symmetrical structures of testis, coiled vas deferens, sac-like tubular accessory glands           and narrow ejaculatory duct which open out as intromittent organ. Seminiferous tubules           of the testis display two zones: germinal zone (GZ) and transformation zone (TZ).           Spermatogenesis and spermatozoan maturation occurrs within the testes and           subsequently reaches the vas deferens via collecting duct. Structurally and functionally           the vas deferens is categorized into anterior vas deferens (AVD), middle vas deferens           (MVD), and posterior vas deferens (PVD). AVD secretes glycoproteinaceous and           mucoproteinaceous products which assist in sperm grouping and spermatiophore           formation. MVD and PVD secrete mucoproteinaceous secretion akin to AVD and act as           storage centers. The exact role of accessory glands is enigmatic. The copious amount of           acidic materials secreted by these ductal glands possibly supports easy transport of           spermatophores during copulation.          |

| Abstract :           This paper examines the growing concern over the past couple of years both at           the national as well as the international level: this concern is about           protecting/preserving environment. The environment is not merely seen as protecting the           surrounding areas, rather protecting the globe. The issues of environment are now           expanded to include such issues as livelihood, surrounding, air, water, green house           effect, nuclear free world, etc. More than that it is now linked to the larger issues of           identity, culture, development including social categories.          |

| Abstract :           Agricultural mechanization is the application of machinery, technology and           increased power to agriculture, largely as a means to enhance the productivity of human           labour and often to achieve results well beyond the capacity of human labour. There are           three sources of farm power utilized for these tools, machines and equipment, manual           and animal draft, and motorized power. Mechanization also includes irrigation system,           food processing and related technologies and equipment. The main problems of Indian           agricultural system are lack of mechanisation, small land holding, small and marginal           farmers which results in huge wastage of human labour and in low yields per capita           labour force. So, Implementation and action needed to increase the availability of           mechanization inputs and identification of the components of a programme to increase           investments in mechanization and make plan for sustainable agricultural development.           However, the full benefit achieved through the use of many advanced crop husbandry           inputs such as improved seed, fertilizer, and pesticides, as well as increased use of           irrigation, use of improved tools and machines. Only under certain conditions, where           production increases achieved through the use of other improved inputs has come to its           limits, can improved tools and equipment by themselves lead to production increases,           cost reductions or improvements in the environmental sustainability of farming.          |

| Abstract  |  Full Text | 
| Abstract :           Initially my studied in depth about what is stress and stress management, we           visited different colleges and approached different teachers to find out what are the           various questions that can be put in our questionnaire.           Now our next job was to pen down the questions we could ask teachers which           should not be too harsh and direct that makes teachers uncomfortable to cooperate. After           making questionnaire the next hurdle that came was what if teachers didn't knew whether           they were stressed or what if they refused even though they were stressed.           So we prepared different sets of questionnaire depending upon the answer of the           initial question which our team asked verbally:           ARE YOU STRESSED?           After I was prepared with questionnaire we personally went to different           colleges to get them filled.           After we reached our target of getting filled around 350 questionnaires we           soughed out the best 300 upon which we did our further analysis which you will get to           know further as our team carries on the presentation.          |
