The main purpose of this research is to develop and validate an instrument to measure consumers’ perceptions regarding the other-oriented value (ethics, status, esteem, and spirituality) of online retailers. This can be considered as an attempt to give a full presentation to the experiential value as conceptualized by Holbrook (1996). This is, to our knowledge, an attempt in the literature to specifically measure the experiential value construct as composed by all of the self-oriented and the other-oriented dimensions. Such effort is particularly relevant since online retailers must understand how consumers perceive and evaluate the ethics (Anderson and Srinivasan, 2003), spirituality, esteem, and status of their websites in the face of severe competition and continually rising consumer expectations. Results offer a support of all of convergent, discriminant, and nomological validities.

The Complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II)), Zn(II), Cd(II), Sn(II), Co(II), Sb(III) and Fe(III) with Methyl 3-[(E,E)-3-phenylprop-2- enylidene]dithiocarbazate have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, FT-IR, UV-Visible spectroscopy. The Schiff bases in every case behaved as bidentate, uninegative ligands. The complexes of Cu(II), Co(II) and Fe(III) are paramagnetic while all other complexes are diamagnetic. The complexes [Cu(C11H11N2S2)2] and [Ni(C11H11N2S2)2] had, square planar structures with two ligands satisfying the four steriochemical sites, where the complexes [Zn(C11H11N2S2)2] and [Cd(C11H11N2S2)2] were tetrahedral and the complexes [Sn(C11H11N2S2)2(H2O)2], [Co(C11H11N2S2)2(H2O)2], [Sb(C11H11N2S2)2(NO3) (H2O)] and [Fe(C11H11N2S2)2(NO3)(H2O)] were octahedral in geometry. The metal complexes have been screened for their antibacterial activity.

In present paper we examined the connection between height of tropopause and the light-trap catch two moth species. The data of European Corn-borer come from the Hungarian national light-trap network between 1959 and 1973, and the Setaceous Hebrew Character come from the forestry light-trap network between 1961-1970. Groups were made for data of the height of tropopause. The relative catch values of the examined species were categorised according to the characteristics of tropopause on each day, after it these values were summarised, averaged and depicted. We defined the parameters of the regression equations. We have found a close positive correlation between the height of the tropopause and relative catch of Setaceous Hebrew Character, but only the lowest and highest values of the tropopause reduce or rather increase of the light trap catch of the European Corn-borer.

Bangladesh is a land of beauty. The natural beauty of Bangladesh is very charming and marvelous. All around the Bangladesh it is full of beauty. But lack of Management and proper maintenance are the two biggest problems in getting benefits to enjoy the wonderful scenarios of Bangladesh. In the age of information superhighway, the tourists and mass people are able to connect any part of the world. Now-a-days tourism has become a very effective and dynamic sector both in the world economy and particular in the developing countries. As such tourism sector can play positive contribution towards enhancing Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of a country. Here we have verified the probable outcome of the various tourist spots of Bandarban by comparing with the data set of past, presents and future. After collection data set as well opinions of the local people and then applied the methodology as Multiple Regression and Chi Square test. Here we have noticed that it is very much possible to make improvements on the national revenue using the proper managements of the tourism projects. Besides we also check the results using the methods of the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to make the loss of the current stages of the managements and mismanagements

The paper examines the socio economic attributes of residents (SEC); building and environmental features (BEF), residential crime magnitude, fear of crime events, fear of neighbourhood and households’ safety measures in Ibadan, Zaria and Owerri with a view to establish a relationship between them. Four indices were developed. These are ‘Residential Crime Magnitude’ (RCM), ‘Fear of Crime Events Index’ (FCEI), ‘Fear of Neighbourhood’ (FNI) and ‘Household Safety Measures Index’ (HSMI). The study observed a significant relationship between low attributes of BEF, low attributes of SEC, low attributes of RCM and low attributes of HSMI, low attributes of FNI and low attributes of FCEI. Among SEC, BEF and RCM, BEF was identified as the strongest dependent variable informing residents’ response to crime. Thus any meaningful intervention at crime control must first begin with decision on building and environmental features that discourages crime incidence and reduces fear of crime.

Aim and Objective : Study of safety and efficacy of twice weekly HDR brachytherapy, in management of cervical carcinoma. Background and purpose : HDR brachytherapy (HDR-ICBT) is integral part of treatment in cervical cancer treated with curative intent.HDRICBT should always fractionated, if brchytherapy started after external radiotherapy and once in a week application was done then there is prolongation of overall treatment time (OTT) which leads to of tumour repopulation leading to poor tumour control. To reduce repopulation, OTT should be shortened either by increasing dose per fraction or administering more fractions per week, first approach has more complications. So to decreases OTT twice weekly regimen should be prefer. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of twice weekly HDR-ICBT Materials and Methods : Hundred patients with locally advanced (stages IIB to IVA according to FIGO classification) carcinoma of uterine cervix were enrolled, radiotherapy was conventionally administered: 50.4 Gy/28 fractions by external beam (whole pelvis) followed by HDR-ICBT, 4 fractions of 7 Gy each. Paclitaxel was administered on weekly basis at dose of 40 mg∕m2 during entire course of external beam radiotherapy as a radio sensitizer. Overall treatment time 50 days. Results : Treatment response was evaluated three months after the end of radiotherapy by means of clinical examination and ultrasonography. Complete Regression (CR) in 83%, partial response (PR) 14% and progressive disease 3%. At 26 months of median follow up 73 patients alive, 58 patients are disease free. Conclusion : The twice weekly HDRICBT regimen may improve the local control rate with low complications as well as reduced overall treatment time.

Bakaliki pyroclastics are part of the volcanoclastics of the Lower Benue Trough Nigeria. The petrological and geochemical study of the pyroclastics was carried out; to evaluate and re-appraise their petrology, stratigraphic position and origin which have remained subjects of controversy in the Benue Trough Geology. The pyroclastics outcrop as enlongate and domical bodies that are large and massive. Field relationships indicate that the volcanoclastics occur within the Abakaliki Shale of the Asu River Group and in some places they interbed with the shales. They occur mostly as agglomerates and welded tuffs cut by several quartz filled veins and segregations. The agglomerates are porphyritic with angular fragments of shales embedded in them. The tuffs are very fine grained and aphanitic in texture. Petrographic data obtained from this study show plagioclase and augite as the major mineral constituents with quartz, olivine, calcite and iron oxide as the accessories. Devitrified glass shards are common in the rocks. They are of basaltic composition. Geochemical analysis shows that the pyroclastics are subakaline, tholeiitic rocks of thin continental crust origin. They are classified as basalts, basaltic andesites, dacites and rhyolites

Nairobi City the Capital of Kenya lies on the eastern flank of the Kenya Rift Valley. The geological succession includes metamorphic and igneous rocks as well as interbedded lacustrine and alluvial sediments. Groundwater has been encountered in aquifers within the thirteen different geologic units in the succession. The objective of this study was to analyse the geochemistry of groundwater for major and minor elements, heavy metals as well as the presence of pollutants. The 30 samples were collected and analysed using international standards. Membrane Filter Technique, Ion chromatography, Atomic Absorption Spectrometry and Inductively Coupled Plasma were some of the methods of analysis used. The results show that the physical parameters of the groundwater across the study area range from those within the recommended World Health Organisation limits to those that raise concern such as the high turbidity, pH and electrical conductivity values in boreholes in Embakasi, Industrial area, and Karen. Since these parameters signify potential for microbial contamination, a research should be carried out to analyse their variation and the relationship with lithology and structural geology of the area. Results of this study as well as those of past chemical analyses indicate that major anions and cations concentrations are within the limits recommended by WHO. High nitrate concentrations are detected in the shallow wells. Fluoride content is above internationally recommended limits in majority of the boreholes. Past records indicate fluoride contents in the range of 0.5-13.7 ppm. Four elements that are known to endanger life if they occur in drinking water above certain limits (selenium 0.05 ppm, arsenic 0.2 ppm, chromium 0.05 ppm and cyanide 0.01 ppm) have not been investigated. It is recommended that these elements be analysed in future studies. The presence of general coli and E.coli in eight out of ten tested samples underlines the importance of disinfecting the water for

Tool wear is a worn portion over the flank and face of the tool. Tool wear is significant for determining tool life and hence it influences the machining economics. The wear measurements are carried by using a tool makers’ microscope in the present investigations. All the investigations are carried in dry machining. Life enhancement by using cryogenic treatment on HSS drill (T1-type) is the objective of study. Investigations are carried on different work materials such as AA6041, AISI 1040 and EN36. Improvement in tool life up to 140% for AA6041, 90% for AISI 1040, 38% for EN36 is observed. These investigations are aimed at benefiting small industries that use aforementioned tool work combinations. Regressions models are constructed for wear for both untreated machining and cryogenic treated machining.

The relevance of French language in the field of journalism Education in Nigeria is yet to be established. This situation cannot be totally divorced from the language policy in Nigeria and the past colonial experience of the country where English was placed at vantage position compared to French language in all spheres of life in Nigeria. However, researchers and experts in the field of journalism and mass communication education have worked extensively on the significant value of English language and indigenous languages in journalism education Nigeria but there is dearth of research in the area of French language. The researcher therefore investigated the relevance of French language to journalism education in Nigeria. Simple rando m sampling technique was used to select a higher institution of learning in Ibadan, Oyo state. A total number of 125 students of mass communication at the Polytechnic, Ibadan participated in the study. Four research questions were raised and answered. The only instrument used for data collection was QMCSAFL. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of PPMC correlation, T. test and Chisquare. The results show that Kn owledge of French language has significant effect on Journalism Education in Nigeria, at X² Calculated (9) = 44.50 greater than X² Critical (9) =16.9 at P=0.000<0.05. There is no relationship between attitude and knowledge at (r=0.065; p>0.05).
