Energy Efficiency is the critical need of Mobile Wireless Sensor Network (MWSN) due to the limitation in the size of the device and the disability to replace the battery of the nodes. In this paper, a Grid Based Energy Efficient Clustering Algorithm for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (GEECA) is proposed to select the Cluster Heads (CHs) thereby minimizing the energy consumption. The simulation results are compared with a prevailing clustering algorithm, which reveals that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithm.

Abstract: Introduction: India has a sizeable child population. The 2011 census in the first one in many decades which counted less absolute number of children in the 0-6 years age group compared to 2001 census count of 164 million children, there were 159 million children in 2011. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the rural field practice area of Rama Medical College situated around 10 km away from Hapur. A total of 300 under six children were approached for conducting the present study, of which 296 were interviewed and selected for the study. Results: Out of 296 children 108 (36.4%) children were exclusively breast feed. Further it was observed that majority i.e. 63.43% of the children were normal in whom exclusive breast feeding was practiced. It was observed that out of the 274 fully immunized for age children a maximum i.e. 144 (52.55%) were normal. Maximum i.e. 6 of the unimmunized children were under nutrition. Majority of the children were less than 24 months of age, number of female children were slightly higher than male children. Majority of the children were Muslims followed by Hindus and only one child was Christian. Maximum number of children belonged to class IV followed by class III socio-economic class, according to modified Kuppuswamy classification. Discussion: According to occupation of the father and nutritional status. Majority of the fathers were involved in unskilled occupation or semiskilled occupation i.e. 60.13%. Unemployed fathers had a higher proportion of under nutrition children 58.33%, followed by fathers involved in unskilled /semiskilled work 151.4%. Fathers involved in semi professional/professional occupation had maximum proportion of normal children 77.78%. Conclusion: Majority of the children belonged to nuclear type of family. The literacy percentage was slightly higher in fathers than in mothers. Majority of fathers were labourers followed by clerical work or owned a shop while most of the mothers were housewives and only few of them worked as teachers or lectures. Maximum children were delivered in hospital. Majority of them had normal birth weight. Maximum children belonged to birth order one. Faulty feeding practices were also observed in this area. Primary Immunization was 92.5% in the study area with small percentage of children not being completely immunized.

Spilanthes filicaulis (Compositae or Asteraceae) is a genus comprising of over 60 species that are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, such as Africa, America, Borneo, India, Sri Lanka and Asia. The total phenolic, flavonoid, tannins, b-carotene and lycopene content of the leaf and flower parts of Spilanthes filicaulis were evaluated. UV-Vis spectrophotometric scanning of leaf and flower in ethanol was also carried out. The methanolic extracts of leaf and flower of Spilanthes filicaulis had higher phenolic, flavonoid, tannin and ascorbic acid contents these bioactive compounds contribute to the antioxidant activity of the plant.

Shipbuilding was once a flourishing trade along the coast of Bengal 400 years ago. Countries flocked to her shipyards to get the best wooden commercial and military ships available at the time. However, with the advent of the industrial revolution, the shipbuilders of Bengal lagged behind in the fabrication of the primary new construction material that was sweeping the world, namely steel. As a result of this lack of skill, Bengal rapidly lost her position amongst the great shipbuilders in the world. Today, Bangladesh has resumed the process of inheriting that lost heritage of shipbuilding. Being a young shipbuilding country of only 2 decades, Bangladesh has already started making ripples in the international shipbuilding market by fetching handsome orders from as far away as Europe and Africa. The prospects for future growth, based on industry analysis of the key forecasting variables, can only be labelled as positive. However, a lack of skilled shipbuilding personnel is hindering Bangladesh‟s chances in the global industry. This policy paper has presented numerous recommendations spanning the provision of „specialised training to foster the development of local human resource‟ to „recruitment of foreign skilled personnel‟ as means for supplying the local demand for skills. Additionally, joint industry action in areas such as training centres, university course development and labour supply forecasting has been promoted.

This research paper is an attempt to understand how the cultural and social dimensions which operates in the Indian Cultural Context. The research has coined a term called “Cultural Conscience” in order to get a clearer picture of how the various dimensions interact and its effect on the psyche the term has been introduced. The aim of this research is to see how these mould the psyche of the individual and it is being explored through the perspective of the therapist. The sample size for the study was Clinical and counselling psychologists.10 psychologists were interviewed. The tool used for data collection was semi- structured interviews. The analysis for the data was done using thematic analysis. Four global themes were arrived at. The global themes identified were Identity Crisis, Identity Formation, Self- Sacrifice in Clients and Shame and Guilt in Therapy. The manner in which the cultural factors influence one’s way and nature of relationships that is formed with the external world is also studied in this research.

An attempt was made to validate Sterility Assurance level (SAL) of two Industrial Autoclaves up to 106 Log Reduction by using both gram negative and gram positive bacteria. For gram negative bacteria, a suspension of E. coli was prepared at 108 cfu/ml which was sterilized individually through two autoclaves at 1210C for 20 minutes at three consecutive cycles. Bacterial load was then determined and found 8 log reductions of bacterial growth. For Gram positive bacteria, 12 ampoules of Geobacillus stearothermophilus containing 106 cfu were placed in two Autoclaves. After sterilization, no growth of Geobacillus stearothermophilus was found which also proving the 106 Log Reductions of that sterilization parameters

The role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of various diseases has been established. Maintaining the steady balance between reactive oxygen species and natural antioxidants is a crucial factor, and could probably serve as a major mechanism in preventing damage by oxidative stress induced by toxic substances. A comparative study and correlation analysis of malondialdehyde (MDA), serum vitamins (A, E and C) and the redox active metals (Cu, Fe and Zn) in CCl4 induced oxidative stress in albino rats with various doses of CCl4 were determined. The serum levels of oxidative stress markers were compared between the normal and test groups. The result showed a significant increase in the serum vitamins A and E in the CCl4 induced oxidative stress rats compared to control rats (P<0.05). However, the serum level of vitamin C was not statistically different compared to control rats (P>0.05). MDA correlated strongly and positively with vitamin C (r=0.94), Vitamin A(r=0.87), Vitamin E and Fe(r= 0.90 and 0.87 respectively) while the serum MDA showed a weak positive relationships with Zn(r=0.02) and Cu(r=0.47).Thus, the increased serum levels of some antioxidant vitamins and the redox metals in the experimental rats as observed in this study could be a compensatory regulation in response to induced oxidative stress by CCl4.The evidence from this study lends credence to the ability of endogenous antioxidants to counter the effects of free radicals generated by hepatotoxic substances and maintain the steady-state of prooxidant-antioxidant balance in the system.

Bangladeshi shipbuilding is a growing industry. The last decade and half of shipbuilding in Bangladesh have experienced a good growth, and the next two decades promise even greater growth as 50% of the world's seafaring ships are more than 20 years old. Additionally, the fact that older shipbuilding countries such as Japan, China, South Korea, and European countries are only interested in building commercial ships above 25, 000 DWT means that countries such as Bangladesh have a greater scope for increasing market share. Bangladesh has ample manpower, however, lacks skilled shipbuilding technicians and machinists, as well as advanced shipbuilding designing technology and personnel. The industry is working hard to address these challenges to their businesses through increasing training and development programmes. Employee turnover, however, threatens to lead to loss of knowledge and financial loss from losing trained employees. The study has presented statistical results from experience survey of industry experts to reveal that HRM malpractice, in areas such as compensation, worker safety, and job security is a potential contributor to employee turnover in the Bangladeshi shipbuilding industry.

Filariasis (Philariasis) is a parasitic and infectious tropical disease that is caused by thread-like filarial nematode worms and their larvae. Filariasis is rarely fatal and it is the second leading cause of permanent and long-term disability in the world. The larvae transmit the disease to humans through a mosquito bite. Considering the Tubulin protein as drug target, which is the principle component of the Microtubular system in the filarial nematodes, the drugs were found by using the Drug Bank and their analogs by using NCI Enhanced Database Browser. Benzimidazole carbamates, a class of microtubule depolymerizing drugs was found to act by disrupting the assembly of tubulin dimers into microtubules. Thus the filarial nematode muscular system gets severely affected. The Filariasis can be prevented and eradicated by administrating one of the drugs belonging to benzimidazole carbamates class. Using Discovery Studio Visualisation tool, the analogs of this class of drugs were docked with the tubulin protein and novel drug was identified for an effective treatment against Filaria.

Stress is a major problem eventually faced by the students during their studies period. There is an imbalance between environmental conditions and ability of individuals to adapt. When it is concerned with medical students, it has been recognized as the major factor responsible for the negative effect on physical and psychological health. To evaluate stress and perception of physical problem with obesity in medical students. The present descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital, Duwakot from May 2015 to July 2015. This study encompassed 435 medical students- including both sexes aged 17-27 years. A predesigned and structured questionnaire was used as data collection tool and height and weight were measured and Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated. In this present study 38.4% (167) were female and 61.6% (268) were male participants. The level of stress was significantly higher in female students when it was compared with male students and various stress associated precipitation factor were also present which was statistically significant as p=<0.05. In this study there was no significant association found between level of stress and perception of physical problem with obesity. Incidence of stress was significantly higher in medical students contributing a leading role in physical and psychological problems. Due to stress students are under the negative effect to perform various activities. The effect of stress and its associated precipitating factor influencing medical student needs to be minimized. The students must practice proper eating behaviors and encourage physical activity to prevent obesity. So, an essential step has to be taken as a first line of detection and defense for better health and wellbeing.

As a new source of natural antioxidants, there is now an expansion of interest in phytochemicals to be used in foods and pharmaceutical preparations to substitute synthetic antioxidants, which are being restricted due to their potential health risks and toxicity. The present investigation deals with the in vitro antioxidant activity of different solvent extracts of whole plant of Naregamia alata using various antioxidants model systems viz., DPPH, Hydroxyl, superoxide and ABTS+ radical cation scavenging activities. The ethanol extract of N. alata whole plant showed strong superoxide radical scavenging activity. The reducing power of the extracts were determined and compared with standard ascorbic acid. The reducing power increased with increase in concentration. Among the solvent tested, methanol extract of N. alata possessed strong reducing activity. The antioxidants that are present in the whole plant of N. alata studied in this investigation could be used to inhibit or prevent the harmful consequences of oxidative stress. The antioxidant effect could be related to the free radical scavengers like flavonoids and phenolic compounds.

The study is on the rate of Unemployment in Nigeria as a result of the failure of Public Enterprises. The objective of the study therefore is to identify the impact Public Enterprises failure had on Unemployment rate in Nigeria. This was achieved through the analysis of secondary sources of data and other documentary evidences on the issues. The study discovered that the failure of Public Enterprises in Nigeria had contributed immensely to the Unemployment rate. Conclusively, the Privatization of Public Enterprises in Nigeria had led to massive loss of jobs due to lack of stable trade unions that will negotiate workers disengagement or exit in accordance with the law. The study therefore recommended that in order to provide employment to the unemployed in Nigeria, Public Enterprises should be revamped and managed in the spirits of State Capitalism or purely on full commercialization basis.

Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disease which consists Joint pain, inflammation, synovial proliferation and damage of articular cartilage. Morning stiffness along with joints pain is a primary diagnosis. If not treated it can lead deformity of the wrist, fingers, toes. NSAIDs are the first line treatment. Now a days DMARDs are frequently used as soon as RA is confirmed along with some corticosteroids. The present study reveals that use of prednisolone has a miraculous pain relieving effect over deflazacort even for short term regime.

Performance of employees in any organization is one of the major determinants of profitability and sustainability. In any organization employees are major assets, they play a major role towards the organizations' success. There is the need for research to focus on the determinants of productivity and performance of employees in organizations. Career Advancement is many at times used to narrow the gap between the current performance and future expected performance. Empirical studies reveal that there is little research carried out on the link between career Advancement and employee performance in educational institutions. After the initial training many employees in Catholic Church managed schools have undertaken other trainings but have not moved up the ladder; rather they have stagnated at the same position with no or little to show in terms of career advancement. Catholic Church managed schools require employees who perform their duties well yet there is little to show in terms of promotions, students‟ results and advancement in these schools; lack of career advancement in these schools is still a problem. This paper presents a study on the effect of career advancement on employee performance in Catholic Church managed secondary schools in Meru Diocese Kenya. It adopts a descriptive research design since the researcher gathered both qualitative and quantitative data that describes the effect of career advancement in Catholic Church managed high schools in Meru Diocese. The target population includes all the 481 employees of all the Catholic Church managed high schools in Meru Diocese; this includes both the teaching and non-teaching staff.

In order to evaluate the impact of plant population on stressed soybean clycine max (L.), a field experiment with 3 different plant populations (at three different irrigation regimes was carried out. Plants were grown under frequent irrigation (W1), moderate and severe drought stress (W2 and W3). The different plant population designated as D1, D2 and D3, corresponding to spacing between plants of 5, 10 and 15 cm. Seed yield components(number of fruiting branches, pods, seeds weight per plant , seed yield per unit area and measured related characters decreased from normal irrigation regime to water deficit stress in both seasons. Also, the same trend was observed due to increasing spacing between plants particularly under stress conditions. Based on results, soybean yield and yield components decreased when that drought stress occurred. Withholding irrigation reduced seed yield by more than 50% in stressed soybean plants compared with normal irrigated plants.
