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).

Comparative exergo-economic analysis of a simple and modified cycle gas turbine power plants was carried out in this
work, using a GE MS5001 gas turbine located at Trans Amadi in Rivers state, Nigeria as a case study. The simple cycle
plant was modified to have an intercooler, regenerator and a reheater with one additional compressor and one additional
turbine. Energy, exergy and exergo-economic analyses were carried out on both plants. The net output of the GE
MS5001 gas turbine is 26.90MW, and its fuel is natural gas with heating value of 50MJ/kg. The simple gas turbine cycle
has an efficiency of 30.4% while the modified gas turbine cycle has an output power and efficiency of 44.67MW and
48.0% respectively. The exergy efficiency of the simple cycle is 22.6% while that of the modified cycle is 43.0%. The
highest exergy destruction rate was in the combustion chamber in both cycles and accounted for 90% of exergy destroyed
in the simple gas turbine cycle and 43% and 36% in the combustion chamber and reheater of the modified cycle plant.
The economic analysis carried out showed that the total purchase equipment cost was higher in the simple cycle plant
because of the high pressure ratios the compressor and the turbine operate in the simple cycle compared to the modified
cycle. The cost of producing electricity for the simple gas turbine cycle was 10.18$/GJ while that for the modified gas
turbine cycle was between 7.3339$/GJ and 7.7969$/GJ. The cost of electricity from the modified cycle is thus cheaper.
All the exergo-economic parameters favour the operation of the modified cycle.

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.

Nowadays, Engineers are superheroes as such, must be ready for anything in an increasingly technology-dependent
world. Throughout the work of engineers, we are able to have smart-phones, computers, HD video, satellites TV,
airplanes, electric cars, robots, and air conditioners. The list goes on and on. Engineers have enabled us to explore the
galaxy, break the sound barrier in a car, replace the broken parts, and instantly connect with anyone all over the world
and so much more. This report focuses on engineering job preferences. The Egyptian engineering graduates are said to be
more likely to apply for or wait for public sector jobs. Certainly, this seems to be the same in other Arabic countries. The
past government supported practice of expanding youth employment in the public sector is no longer sustainable. More
and better economic opportunities for professional engineers need to be generated in the private sector by encouraging
youth entrepreneurship and the development of micro and small enterprises (MSEs) [1].
