The comparison of the contribution of agricultural sector and industrial sector towards the development/growths in the Nigerian economy between 2005-2014 were determined using Hoteling T-distribution procedure. The data were collected from National Population Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and two populations were studied, namely agricultural sector and industrial sector. Under these two populations, four samples were selected from each population. For agricultural sector, the samples selected were crop production, livestock, forestry and fishing. For industrial sector, the samples selected were quarrying and other minerals, oil refining, cement and other manufacturing. The analysis shows that both sectors contribute to the development/growth of the Nigerian economy and the hypothesis were tested to know their level of contribution towards the growth/development of the Nigerian economy, which also shows that agricultural sector, contributes more to the economy than the industrial sector.

Decisions on a considerable number of mining projects in Canada are being affected by issues related to First Nations communities. This paper will review First Nations issues with respect to resource development. The historical nature of these issues is requiring mining companies to rethink how they approach mine projects especially with respect to community engagement, partnership and value-sharing. Examples of successful engagement and unsuccessful efforts will be presented.

Indian higher education has undergone a metamorphosis in the last several years. The right to education is a fundamental right in India. Education falls under the Concurrent list of the Indian Constitution. In 1997 the Indian Government, in its proposals for subsidies, accorded higher education the status of a ‘non - merit’ good while elementary education remained a ‘merit good’. The Ministry of Finance, Government of India thus reclassified higher education as a ‘merit-2-good’ which need not be subsidized by the state as a ‘merit good’. One of the major hurdles confronting our system is that of scarcity of finance. Beginning with the Kothari Commission all the succeeding Committees have emphasized the need for increasing the budgetary allocation for higher education. However, in the light of increasing demand and competitiveness more specifically after 1991, public funding is becoming difficult and this has led to growing privatization in the education sector. The spurt in Privatization is more clearly reflected in the Professional sector, where India has witnessed the growth of Professional Colleges, (namely engineering, medicine and management.). They have their own merits and demerits. While India boasts of a few high quality institutions some are very backward. They have to be regulated if India has to make her mark as a knowledge hub in the near future.

This paper presents a research that was carried out in autumn 2015 about the unconventional political demonstration of secondary education pupils. The sample consisted of 960 questionnaires that were collected from schools of central Macedonia. The purpose of this research was to examine the factors that influence pupils to occupy schools every autumn and to describe the profile of the pupils that act in this way. At first a brief introduction in the notion of political socialization is attempted putting forward the factors that determine the degree of pupils’ politicization such as the family, the peer group, the school and the mass media. Secondly, a link between political socialization and political demonstration is attempted commenting on the habit of occupying schools every autumn. The results of the research show that the majority of students do not participate in such actions as well as a tendency of male pupils to participate more than the female. Also, pupils from vocational schools show a tendency to take part in occupations as well as in provocations in relation to pupils from gymnasia and normal high schools (lyceums).

The thrust of this study was to evaluate the design and construction as a housing acceptability factor of nine public housing estates in Awka and five others in Onitsha towns in Anambra State using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. The universe of the study consisted of 2,805 housing units in Awka and Onitsha by house type and 2,955 occupants including 50 persons each from Anambra State Housing Development Corporation/Anambra Homeownership Company Limited (ASHDC/ AHOCOL), Non Estate Occupiers (NEOs) and Private Estate Developers (PEDs) involved. The sample size for the study was 899 which represented 30% of the total population which were drawn using proportionate cluster sampling technique, while 887 were complete responses. One research question and one hypothesis were formulated for the study. An 18-item structured questionnaire (QAHPH) was developed; face and content validated and reliability test was done using Cronbach Alpha Technique index value of 0.90 and pre-tested on a sample of 30 respondents/residents of another housing estate. T-test, Correlation Matrix and Principal Component analysis were used in answering research questions, while t-test were used to test hypotheses at 0. 05 level of significance. The major findings of the study was (1), there is a significant difference between the mean perception of the occupants and the staff of ASHDC/AHOCOL on the design and construction of public housing. It was concluded that (1).That the design and construction of public housing in Awka and Onitsha met the expectations and preferences of the end-users. The adoption of flexibility in design which increased densities encouraged mix uses and changed urban land use form based on different interpretations given to blueprints for developments and targeting of different income groups made for improvement of public housing estate delivery.

The prevalence rate of asymptomatic UTI among students of a community tertiary institution based in Evbuobanosa near Benin City, Nigeria was the focus of this work. A total of 390 freshly voided midstream urine samples collected into sterile plastic screw capped universal containers containing boric acid as preservative from students aged between 15 – 30 years were used for the study. Samples were screened for significant bacteriuria and puscells (neutrophil) counts. All positive samples with pyuria were aseptically cultured by standard methods on sterile Cystine Lactose Electrolyte Deficient (CLED) agar, MacConkey agar and Sabouraud Dextrose agar plates and incubated appropriately. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was done on isolated and identified uropathogens by Kirby – Bauer agar diffusion disc method. While 231(59.2%) samples yielded bacterial growth, 159(40.8%) yielded no growth.

In this era of individualism almost everyone is concerned about maintaining the privacy, but it becomes too confusing as the core concept of public and private can no more be described in a straight and easy way. Both of these issues get different dimensions which actually transgress the characteristics of being “Public” or being “Private”. Even the concerns of people about privacy and concealing or sharing their private matters or experiences are also changed. This paper deals with present ideas regarding these complicated issues of public and private, how these changes are occurred, which trend works behind this change and also the existing psychology of the modern people regarding the conception of privacy and public matters. Earlier, while people kept diary to reflect their dreams, pain and pleasure, but now the technocrat people share almost every thinking firstly in the “What’s on your mind” box in Face book. It becomes so normal to share the mind with lots of people. In this capitalist and corporate world human being are no more treated as human being rather they are treated as commodity. Privacy and livelihood of individuals become victims of dominant corporate culture. Their experience, life style, emotion everything become the products for selling.

Spelethems are good proxy to understand the environmental condition above the cave where they form. I have studied three speleothems from the Campanian region (Matese Mts, Sorrentina peninsula and Cilento area). The splethems should suggest the climatic condition some time in the past in Campanian region. I present data on the petrography, SEM, and Carbon and Oxygen isotopes. The data present a scenario sapropelic some time in the past in Campanin region.
