Purpose: With growing life expectancies across world, careers are getting prolonged. Midlife as a distinct phase of life brings with itself unique challenges as well as opportunities (Life span theory). Midlife has often been reported as a turbulent and stressful phase by managers. This study explores and crystallises key constituents of midlife stress. The study attempts to place these constructs in a hierarchical model. Research Methodology : In the research study, using literature review, the authors identify a set of constructs of Midlife career stress. Using interpretive structural modelling (ISM) methodology the underlying relations among these constructs are explored. Key Findings : Based on ISM model six levels of hierarchy has been established. The research indicates that there is high interdependence between issues at midlife. Critical life events, personality and organizational culture are the primary sources of stress during midlife. This hierarchy helps the organizations strategize its efforts regarding remedial measures to address the problem. Practical implications : HR managers should adopt a proactive stance. Personality profiling of midlife employees and specific focus on organizational culture may aid in mitigating work related stress. Originality : This paper contributes to HRM literature by presenting a comprehensive view of different stressors at midlife which remain scattered in the extant literature. In doing so, it makes the issues identifiable and actionable for the organizations.

This paper, based on simple examples, aims to show that the gravitational mass of an object is constant and that the distribution of gravitational field is associated with the motion of object. The formula for distribution of gravitational field during the motion of object has been deduced through variation in geometrical relation between gravitational lines. The paper analyzes the difference between gravitational mass and inertial mass of moving object in terms of size and direction and concludes that equivalency principle is false and application scope of general theory of relativity is limited.

Introduction: Several surgical techniques emphasizing sutures on the lower lateral cartilage have been studied by surgeons as instruments to improve nasal tip remodeling. It is already known that the domal divergence angle and its definition angle can be modified by lateral intercrural suture (LIS). Techniques for measuring these structures are not yet standardized. Objectives: Assess the efficacy of LIS using polydioxanone 4.0 absorbable thread by interdomal distance measure on primary rhinoplasty and systematize lateral intercrural suture technique to improve nasal tip definition. Material and methods: Measurement and analyses of interdomal distance measures collected in the pre-operative and trans-operative in comparison with the third and sixth month of post-operative. Prospectivestudy. Results: Lateral intercrural suture (LIS) has proved to be efficient on reducing interdomal distances. Conclusion: LIS is statistically safe, efficient and of low morbidity when utilized in patients with mild to moderate deformities, because it reduces the domal divergence angle, offering effective sustentation to the nasal tip.

A simple, accurate, and economical least time consuming method for losartan method has been developed using Uv spectrophotometer.The assay is based on the UV absorbance maxima at about wavelength of 234nm using distilled water as solvent. Six sample of drug were dissolved in distilled water to produce solutions containing different brands of losartan. The absorbance of these six drugs were measured at 234 nm against the solvent blank and the assay were calculated by using the absorbance of active.This method can be used for the quality control QC quantitation and analysis of losartan in active and tablet formulations.

Background: Diagnostic criteria for acute lung injury(ALI) and ARDS requiring acute onset of disease, chest radiograph demonstrating bilateral pulmonary infiltrates, lack of significant left ventricular dysfunction and 2 2 Fio Pao (PF) ratio ≤ 300 for ALI or ≤ 200 for ARDS. recent criteria is requiring invasive arterial sampling. The pulse oximetric saturation Spo2/Fio2 (SF) ratio may be a reliable non invasive alternative to the PF ratio. Methods : In this cross sectional study , Enrolled 70 patient ALI or ARDS that Admitted in Tabriz children’s hospital PICU. Included in the analysis were corresponding measurement of Spo2,Fio2, Pao2,charted within 5 min of each other And computed SF and PF to determine the relationship between SF and PF ratio. SF threshold values were determined to replacement PF ratio for diagnose ARDS and ALI. Results: The relationship between SF and PF ratio was described by the following regression equation SF=57+0/61PF (P<0/001). SF ratios of 181 and 235 corresponded of PF ratio 300 and 200. The ALI SF cutoff of 235 had 57% sensitivity and 100% specificity, and ARDS, SF cutoff of 181 had 71% sensitivity and 82% specificity. Conclusion: SF ratio is a reliable noninvasive marker for PF ratio to identify children with ALI or ARDS and can be replaced pulse oximetry by arterial blood sampling.

The differential cross-section for the elastic scattering of heavy ion 13C from target nuclei 28Si and 32S at 36 MeV projectile energy has been studied in terms of the Strong Absorption Model of Frahn and Venter[1] using the three parameters version of this model. In this paper we find that a reasonably good description to the angular distribution of the experimental elastic scattering data is possible.

This brief comment is on ONE, the book 文心雕龍 Literary Heart Carving Dragon and TWO, its two English translations, to THREE conclude with their intercultural prospect.ONE: On the 文心雕龍: The classic 文心雕龍 is distinct and unique on at least three counts.One, this book is China’s first major literary criticism, out about 501AD, centuries before medieval era.Two, as poetics is on poetry, so this literary criticism is careful scrutiny of literary writings, and all China’s writings are literary.Three, 文心雕龍 dares to be comprehensive, packed tight in poetic rhythm.Literary Heart Carving Dragon is a dragonish pivot in China, epitomizing Chinese writing and thinking. Born here now, the “dragon” soars far beyond here now in life’s throbbing heartbeat of poetry; poetry is defined as packed rhythm jumping alive, humming tuneless tune, alias dragon self-carving in today’s literary heart.The invisible dragon-beat is carved out 雕龍 into the “literary heart 文心” of China millennia young.Liu Xie 劉勰 cannot help but write out such life-act, intimate infinite, into Literary Heart Carving Dragon 文心雕龍 in 50 gem-chapters, orderly sparkling, compactly poetic, solid soaring.

The practice of continuous extraction of only the main boles from felled trees to meet high demand for timber is one major cause of deforestation in Ghana, but merchantable residues (branchwood and stem off-cuts) left un-extracted can be utilized to increase efficient wood utilization to conserve the forests and the entire ecological system. This study assessed harvesting efficiency, and quantified residues left in the forests after harvesting, to ascertain the extent to which residues utilization can affect forest preservation. Volumes of timber sections of 154 trees from 3 forest ecological sites were quantified using Smalian’s equation, after which harvesting efficiencies were determined. Results indicated merchantable residue quantity of 742.57m3 (24.69%) ranging from 16.34% for C. pentandra to (40.45%) for Khaya ivorensis and overall harvesting efficiency of 75.31% (ranging from 59.54%- mahogany to 83.66% -Ceiba pentandra). ANOVA indicated significant difference (P=0.000) at 95% confidence interval in harvesting efficiencies among species but not sites (P=0.435), and in both branchwoods and off-cuts volumes among species and sites (P=0.000). Strong positive correlation existed between extracted log volume and total merchantable wood (R2=0.866) than extracted log volume and total merchantable residue volume (R2=0.128). Extraction and utilization of merchantable residues were found to have the potential of conserving about 8 hectares of forest land. It was concluded that, extraction and eventual commercialization of merchantable residues can substantially improve efficiency in wood utilization and could conserve the forest vegetation and ecology.

In this Research paper, was experimentally carried out to investigate the effects of introducing the cost between sand used concrete block and sawdust used concrete block. The concrete blocks are using coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, cement, water and sawdust to mix it. Using some percentage of sawdust in place of sand in concrete for example replaces 10%, 15%, 20% of sawdust instead of sand and remaining is same. After the concrete blocks are done I am going to see the difference in weight between the originally concrete block and the sawdust concrete block. The unit density of the concrete block is tested also. Research paper has proved that saw dust Concrete can be used as a Structural Concrete at suitable replacement percentages.

Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of healthcare and communityassociated infections. Its remarkable ability to acquire antimicrobial resistance mechanisms and advantageous pathogenic determinants has contributed to emergence of infections in both nosocomial and community settings. Objective: To determine prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus and antibacterial susceptibility patterns in patients, nasal carriage of health personnel and objects of Dessie Referral Hospital. Methods: Cross sectional study was conducted at Dessie Referral Hospital from February 01 to May 30, 2013. Using a convenient sampling technique, 180 specimens of pus, blood, nasal swab and swab from hospital objects were collected and cultured by standard procedure. Growth identification was based on colony morphology, Gram staining and results of biochemical tests. Antibacterial susceptibility testing was done by disk diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar. Result: Overall prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus was 40.5% and its occurrence in inpatients, health personnel and objects was 57.5%, 40% and 34.3% respectively. Penicillin G (90.4%), nalidixic acid (93.2%), and amoxicillin (82.9%) showed high level of resistance, whereas, gentamicin (84.3%)), tetracycline (62.9%) chloramphenicol (63.6%), ciprofloxacin (61.6%), and kanamycin (64.4%) were relatively effective against Staphylococcus aureus infection. Vancomycin exhibited 100% susceptible in all study subjects. Conclusion: Staphylococcus aureus is still the most common cause of nosocomial infection and multi-resistant was very high and most of the isolates showed high levels of resistance to commonly used antimicrobials. In the absence of diagnostic bacteriologic services, vancomycin and gentamicin are the best therapeutic options to treat S. aureus infections.
