Shari`ah is the foundation of Islamic banking and also any other form of Islamic organization. The ultimate goal of the Islamic organization is to achieve the Shari`ah objectives, that is, Maqasid-al-Shari’ah. A comprehensive and careful examination of the Shari`ah rulings entails an understanding that Shari`ah aims at protecting and preserving public interests (i. e., Maslahah) in all aspects and segments of life. This study is a noble effort of evaluating the products of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited (IBBL) to justify how far these products are achieving the Maqasid-al-Shari’ah. The study found that the bank has been achieving the main and upmost (macro) Maqasid-al-Shari`ah, that is, public interest and the prohibition of riba over the last two decades. These two objectives have been achieving from the inception of the bank. However, the minor Maqasid-al-Shari`ah such as freeing from any kinds of debt and other benefits that related to macro-economics of the country is yet to be achieved in Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited.

The objective of this paper is to identify the main syntactic characteristics examined in a corpus of 100 baseball headlines from the sports section, more specifically the Major League Baseball (MLB) section, of the daily newspaper The Guardian USA in its electronic version. Newspaper headlines are distinctive because they are brief texts that summarize the content of the article they precede. Baseball headlines in The Guardian USA respect these characteristics. Furthermore, they display specific syntactic features that are analyzed in this article. The main results of the study were firstly that this newspaper favors the use of verbal constructions in its headlines rather than non-verbal constructions. On the one hand, the present tense third person was the verbal construction most commonly used. On the other hand, in the non-verbal constructions, the most common headline was the one constituted by two noun phrases which were linked by a colon.

It is the fact of human existence and evident throughout history that human beings are attracted to opportunities that would provide them with a secured life and national boundaries do not matter in pursuit of these opportunities.1 In recent decades, due to shrinking national economies and increased depletion of limited natural resources there has been evidence of mass migration across international boundaries in search of subsistence and sources of livelihood.2 Another factor responsible for these observed mass migration across international boundaries as acknowledged by the United Nations Refugee Commission, the African Union Refugee Commission and other international peace corps, such as the Red Cross is the problem of war and national insecurity which has ravaged various sub-continents and in particular, the West-Africa Sub-continent

The drivers of community structure, diversity and distribution, has generated a lot of interest among many scientists, giving the complex environmental and biological interaction, at different scales. This prompted the application of multivariate techniques to explain the factors influencing variations in wetland plant community structure, diversity and distribution, in Northern Region of Ghana. A total of 40 species were sampled and separated into four community structure(swamp forest community; shrub land community; grassland community and herbaceous community), using DCA. Herbs, grasses and trees/shrubs constituted 72.72%, 27.27% and 0.01% respectively. Change in plant community distribution was marginal, as the first two axes only explained 1.18% of the variance along a longitudinal profile of environmental gradient. Species turnover was low, indicating a far more unimodal responses of some species to a gradient of disturbances than others. Plant diversity was moderate(H′ = 1.86 - 2.66).

The Rajbangsi’s constituted the most predominant section of the local Hindu population in the Northern districts of colonial Bengal. A large section of them possessed a substantial amount of land commonly known as Jotedars, Zamindars. Unfortunately, a very small section belonged to this landlord class showed much interest in the field of tea plantation industry in spite of having land on a large degree. Interesting to say, other Indians had to set up a large number of tea estates on the land owned by the Rajbangsi landlord once. Instead of assuming initiative in this economic field the Rajbangsi jotedars and other affluent personalities of the same community remained aloof them from the tea plantation industry. This factor actually drew me to make a study in this field of the economic history of colonial Bengal.

In Ethiopia more than 60% of the pregnancies in adolescents are unwanted and most of these pregnancies end up with unsafe abortion which is the most common cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Unwanted pregnancy can occur due to missed pills, forced sex, method failures, and condom breakage. To prevent such problem, emergency Contraceptives (EC) is the only method that can be used after unprotected sex

Summary Arterial hypertension is a mass, non contagious disease influenced bynumerous risk factors anditself presents a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebra vasculardisease, kidney disease and peripheral blood vessel disease. (1) Therefore, primary preventiontoday contains cardiovascular risk assessment, based on SCORE (Systematic Coronary RiskEva luation) charts which are used to assess ten years risk for initial (first) fatal arterioscleroticevent. Our research covered 39 subjects with arterial hypertension, both genders, aged between40 and 54, who were motivated for decisive implementation of p rimary prevention measures inaccordance with recommendations for cardiovascular diseases prevention and which arepromoting healthy life style.

There is continued demand for new varieties to satisfy the needs of farmers in Uganda for different production regions or agro ecological zones. Despite release of several improved high yielding varieties by National Agriculture Research Organization, farmers in South Western Agro-Ecological Zone have continued to rely on landraces whose production adversely is affected by both biotic and abiotic stresses. Besides, most landraces grown are white fleshed with traces of Beta-carotene. Mbarara Zonal Agriculture Research and Development Institute identified eleven sweet potato varieties, some of which orange-fleshed rich in beta carotene, to evaluate the in the zone and subsequent promotion. All the improved varieties evaluated were high yielding (11-20 t/ha) and their palatability and sensory tastes were not different from the farmer preferred local check Nderera.

We have considered 4-point correlations of dusty fluid MHD turbulent flow in a first order chemical reaction. Here three and four-point correlations between fluctuating quantities have been considered and the quintuple correlations are neglected in comparison to the third and fourth order correlations. For the convention of calculation, the correlation equations are converted to the spectral form by taking their Fourier transforms. Finally, integrating the energy spectrum over all wave numbers, the energy decay of 4-point correlations of dusty fluid MHD turbulent flow in a first order chemical reaction is obtained and the result discussed graphically in the test.

As a component of MICE industry, Exhibition and Tradeshow industry yields both economic and social benefits to Thailand in forms of direct foreign income, improved destination image, wealth distribution, and employment. Albeit its success in hosting endless list of world renowned tradeshows and exhibitions, the country is still considered less productive as compared to other leading MICE destinations in the region. Among other factors, human resource is one of the competitiveness components that need an urgent intervention not only to make the industry competitive vis-à-vis other rival destinations but also to keep pace with directionless and unpredictable changes. Competency based human resource management is now replacing its task-based counterparts for its adaptability and versatility to changes in industrial practices and market demands
