This study sought to establish the influence of principal‟s leadership styles on teachers‟ professional commitment in Kericho Sub-county, Kenya. Specifically the study endeavored to establish the influence of Principals‟ Democratic Leadership style on Teachers‟ Professional Commitment in public secondary schools in Kericho Sub-county. This research was informed by the situational leadership theory and descriptive research design was adopted to guide the study. The sub-county has 31 public secondary schools. In the 31 schools there are a total of 31 principals, 155 Heads of Departments and 400 Teachers. All the 31 principals were selected to participate in the study because the sub county has recorded a decline in KCSE performance in the last two years. Five (5) HODS‟ in charge of academics from each school were purposively selected because of their special complementary roles in the leadership and management of schools. Simple random sampling was used to select five subject teachers in each school, one from each academic department to participate in the study; also 3 sub county quality assurance and standards officers‟ were selected. Therefore a total of 344 respondents comprising of 31 principals, 155 HOD‟s, 155 subject teachers and 3 SCQASOs constituted the total sample size. Data was collected using questionnaires which were administered to principals, HODs and subject teachers while interview schedules were used to guide discussions with the SCQASOs. Validity of the instrument was determined by the supervisors, lecturers in the department of Education Kisii University. For reliability, a test re-test of the findings was calculated and a Pearson‟s correlation coefficient of 0.856 was obtained. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics with aid of Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) computer program while the results from interviews were analyzed qualitatively and thematically. Results revealed that democratic leadership style was the dominant style employed by principals in Kericho Sub-County together with the democratic practices employed point to a leadership that recognizes ideals of democracy in management. Other practices, principals delegate tasks and assignments to staff members (M=1.94, SD = 0.923); Principals ensure that members of staff feel involved and relevant in decision making process (M = 2.10, SD = 1.075); The study recommended that there is need to consider blending the leadership styles since each has some contribution to make indirectly to learner performance.

This study aims to find out the acceptance of early adult women post-divorce. To see the stages of self-acceptance in respondents of this study using the theory of Kubler Roos (1969). The results of the study show that both respondents have the characteristics of individuals who have self-acceptance of having a positive picture of themselves, can manage and tolerate with frustration and anger, can interact with others without hostile criticism, and can regulate emotional state. At the level of acceptance, there is a similarity in the respondent's acceptance process. Although the first respondent was easier and fast-paced in the self-acceptance process compared to the second respondent. This difference is because the first respondent gets good social support from the family, especially from the first respondent, the first respondent's mother always motivated and embraced the first respondents to get out of the problem of first responders divorce, in contrast to the second most dominant respondent receiving social support of the second respondent's friends because the second respondent's family did not give much support to the second respondent to be able to rise from her divorce. This study also relates to the theory of resilience where resiliency is defined as a dynamic process involving positive adaptation to difficult circumstances (Luthar et al, in Naufaliasari 2013).

Natural convection in water inside an enclosure between two concentric cylinders has been investigated experimentally during heating and cooling process. This is made by the flowing of water as heat transfer fluid through the inner tube of the test section. The temperature distribution of water filled in the enclosure is established during heating and cooling process. As the natural convection phenomenon majorly depends on the heat source and orientation of the test section, the effect of mass flow rate and inlet temperature of heat transfer fluid on temperature distribution and heat transfer rate is investigated, first. Afterward, the effect of inclination of the test section on the temperature distribution is also established. The test section is inclined at 45o, 75o and 90o with the horizontal. The results obtained with different angle oriented test section are compared with the horizontal test section. It is found, convection heat transfer is dominant in heating process while in cooling process conduction mode of heat transfer dominated over convection. It is also observed that during the heating process, heat transfer rate is higher for vertical test section as compared with the other inclinations.

Background: The size of the kidney can be considered as an important indication for Congenital anomalies and in many clinical signs. Aim: to study the morphological and morphometric parameters of human kidneys in Andhra Pradesh. Materials and Methods: Fifty formalin fixed kidney specimens (Right-25; Left-25) obtained from cadavers with age range 55-60 years were utilized from the Department of Anatomy, Santhiram Medical College, Nandyal to study the morphological and morphometric parameters of human kidney specimens. The morphometric parameters like length, width, thickness and weight of the kidneys were measured and recorded. Results: The means of length, width, and thickness of the right kidneys were7.63+1.039, 3.93+0.431, 2.62+0.373 whereas left kidneys were 7.68+1.004, 3.96+0.426, 2.58+0.396 in the present study. The mean weight of the right kidney was 126.92+24.923 whereas the mean of left kidney weight was131+24.363 in the present study. The morphometric parameters like length, width, thickness, and weight were more in left kidney compared to right kidneys. The higher morphometric values were noted in the male kidney specimens when compared to female kidney specimens in the present study Conclusion: Morphometric parameters have a significant role in size, vascular diseases and congenital anomalies of human kidneys and possess greater clinical importance.

The aims of the research are to investigate the effect of gable orientation on the artificial ventilation used, and the intensity of artificial ventilation used which is effected by orientation gable. To achieve the aims of the research, mix research method was used in which both qualitative and quantitative research method was used to obtain the more valid, comprehensice and objective findings of the research.

After the data found, this research showed that the number of orientation of the roof will affect the ability of roof itself to withstand the heat in order not to increase the consumption of artificial artificial excessively based on both the orientation of both ideal and unideal direction at houses laid in Jasari Park Residence Medan. Then, based on a questionnaire using Likert scale, the roof orientation in residential areas shows that North-South and East-West has completely greater intensity in using the artificial ventilation than the roof orientation towards Southeast-Northwest and Southwest- Northeast. This condition occured because this orientation of the roof surface of the building and the sides of the wall are not only higher, and it absolutely reinforce the roofs that are facing in front of the orientation of the sun.

Background: Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a major health concern worldwide with a significant morbidity and mortality in addition to the economic burden. Oxidative stress, induced from exposure to various pollutants, with the resultant inflammation contributed to the pathogenesis of HE. This study was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of rosemary ethanolic extract on thioacetamide (TAA) induced HE. Methods: Rats used in this study were divided into three groups: control group, TAA group received intraperitoneal (i.p) injection of TAA twice weekly for 12 weeks, rosemary treated group received i.p injection of TAA twice weekly and oral daily dose of rosemary ethanolic extract for 12 weeks. Results: The results revealed an obvious state of oxidative stress in liver and brain as evidenced by elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) levels and lowered reduced glutathione (GSH) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Additionally, the concentration and gene expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) indicating a significant inflammatory response. On the other hand, co-treatment with rosemary extract exhibited a significant improvement antioxidant capacities and inflammatory status of liver and brain. Moreover, the matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) as fibrotic markers were analyzed proposing a possible anti-fibrotic activity of rosemary. Conclusion: it can be concluded that rosemary extract provide a powerful ameliorating effect against TAA induced HE owing to the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and possible anti-fibrotic activities of its constituents.

In recent times, a number of countries faced major cracks and divisions (religious, ethnical and geographical) with less than a decade war/instability but with regards to over four decades of wars and instabilities, the united and indivisible Afghanistan face researchers and social scientists with valid questions that what is the reason behind this unity and where to seek the roots of Afghan national unity, despite some minor problems and ethnic cracks cannot be ignored?. Most of the available studies on nation building process or Afghan nationalism have covered the nation building efforts from early 20th century and very limited works are available (mostly local narratives) had touched upon the nation building efforts prior to the 20th. This study goes beyond and examine major struggles aimed nation building along with the modernization of state in Afghanistan starting from late 19th century. Reforms predominantly the language (Afghani/Pashtu) and role of shared medium of communication will be deliberated. In addition, we will talk how the formation of strong centralized government empowered the state to initiate social harmony though the demographic and geographic oriented (north-south) resettlement programs in 1880s and how does it contributed to the nation building process.
