Present study aims to find out the prevalence of hypotension and hypertension among Bengalee adult males and females of Midnapore, West Bengal, India. A multistage sampling technique was used by a house-to-house survey among 498 (Male=344, Female=154) adult individuals. It was evident from the present result that hypertensive cases were found to be more frequent among males with respect to Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure DBP. However, hypotensive cases were found to be more frequent among females, only in DBP. Furthermore, age seems to be a potential risk factor for the development of hypertension in the studied population.

The present study was undertaken to compare the input-output ratio of grapes cultivation among the different sizes of farm holding classes in Theni district of Tamil Nadu and to know their profitability as well as efficiency. A sample size of 273 grape growers were selected under different sizes of farm holding classes namely, marginal, small, medium and large, during the period April 2013. Convenience sampling method was adopted in selecting the respondents. The farmers who cultivate the grape species Sharad is selected for the purpose, which is widely cultivated in the study area. Input-output ratio, benefit–cost ratio among the different sizes of farm holding classes are also compared. The results show that the establishment costs for vineyard per acre is found to be higher for the medium and large farms and the total operating costs are found to be higher for the large farms. Even though the cost share per cent is more for the medium and large farms and gained lesser profit than marginal and small farms due to the gross return the large farms have gained much profit than marginal and small farms. But due to the gross return the large farms have gained much profit than marginal and small farms.

Here, a equilateral triangular shaped circular feed network is designed. This circular feed network can radiate in eight different directions. This radiation is depending on four inputs ports which are excited. It can cover wide area within upper hemisphere. This antenna is designed in such a way that it is useful for any applicable GHz ISM band frequency and utilizes a suspended FR4 substrate. For this antenna we used positive microstrip elements, so that it will make easy to manufacture.

This paper organized as such: In the first section authors mention about all aspects of cloud computing – basic definitions, benefits, important features, workability and application, and so on. In the second section of this paper, authors mention Microsoft decisions about applying of cloud computing onto their newest products, such as Azure OS. In the third section of this paper, authors reveal new innovative algorithm for overcoming malfunctions and spyware actions from cloud platforms and resources. In this section, they purpose a new adaptively reduced-order extended Kalman filter for using as an estimator and predictor in cloud platforms. Authors claim that, if this algorithm were implemented on cloud gateways and resources, cloud service providers were able to track and trace lots of spyware and Trojans and also predict and estimate amount of power consumptions.

The main goal of this study is finding optimal place of unified power flow controller (UPFC) and phase shifter (PST) in the power systems. In other words, the main concentration is on connecting FACTS and OPF tools opinion using PST and UPFC power injection model to find the best place of setting these elements in power networks. The objective function of maximizing static voltage stability edge (system loadability factor) is discussed in this paper. Simulation results are offered on IEEE 118_ bus standard network and they suggest that proposed algorithm includes the better resolution and there is a more little time than the other placement methods.

Mechanical low back pain is one of the major 21st century adversity, and 2nd leading cause of disability. Back pain is a common health problem, with more than 50% of adults bothered by it each year and 70% to 80% of adults afflicted by it at some time in their lives. Yoga offers a holistic approach to health and is now considered a form of mind-body medicine within complementary and alternative medicine. Physiotherapists are beginning to recognize yoga as a form of treatment for musculoskeletal and cardio respiratory conditions. The objective of the study was to compare effectiveness of yoga and exercise therapy in the management of mechanical low back pain. Total 60 subjects with mechanical low back pain were devided in to two groups. Yoga group and exercise group. Yoga group underwent yogic counselling, asanas, and instant relaxation technique and exercise group underwent educational talk, strengthening exercises, and supine rest. Subjects evaluated for disability and flexibility with Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire and sit and reach box test respectively. Data was collected at baseline and at 4th& 8th week. Yoga and exercise therapy both showed a significant reduction in disability and improvement in back flexibility. Yoga and exercise therapy both are effective in the management of mechanical low back pain.

As a public communication tool, mass media is the best instrument to achieve radical rights such as free opinion, free expression and free information/communication. Since radical laws are not limitable – except than necessary cases pointed out in international documents (Human Rights Declaration, Article 119; International Convent on Civil and Political Rights, Articles 19 & 20) – there should be justified grounds and principles to control and monitor mass media by penal tools as the most important limiting factor. To this end, it is only damage principle in extensive damages criminalization that leads into lowest criminal law interferences in media field. Other basics including public interest, legal patriarch and legal moralism pave the grounds for government to use such basics in order to interfere in basic rights and also media field.

The aim of this research is to evaluate the IT Literacy in sport organizations' employees.So370 staff of these organizations were chosen as sample and answered to the researcher made questionnaire of IT Literacy. The opinions of the scope of experts were used in order to determine face and content validity. Confirmative and explorative factor analyses were used in order to determine construct validity. The reliability was determined by Chronbach ?. appropriate descriptive and referential statistics (multi-variate regression, ANOVA, MANOVA) were used. The findings demonstrated that the IT Literacy of sport organizations' employees had a moderate rate. The results of MONOVA demonstrated a significant difference between the subscales of the general Literacy of computer in sport organizations so that the IT Literacy of the sport federation employees was lower than that of the Ministry of Youth and Sport and the Principle Office of Physical Education. Regression analysis also demonstrated that all the subgroups of computer general Literacy were significant predictors for computer Literacy. Finally we should state that IT is considered as one of the most important indices of organizational progress and it should be part of the priorities of sport organizations to provide suitable circumstances in order for the employees to get familiar with it and promote the general IT Literacy.

The purpose of this work is to study the influence of the age, ear side and gender on the distortion product Otoacoustic emission for normal hearing subjects. The decision about whether a Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission is present often depends on a visual assessment of the response along with certain objective criteria, such as DP1 level dB and SNR dB SPL (signal to Noise Ratio). DPOAEs were considered present when the signal was at least 3 dB above the corresponding noise level. In the present study, the overall SNR for each tested ear was more than 3 dB SPL at the overall frequency bands. The findings from this study revealed an age, ear asymmetry and gender effect on the DPOAEs (DP1 level dB) for all subjects groups. Right ears were found to produce higher DPOAEs (DPI level dB) than left ears and The DPOAEs (DP1 level dB) in the females was higher than that in males and also (DPI Level dB) in group I (2-10) years was higher than that in other groups, in group II (11-20) years (DPI Level) was higher than in groups III&IV and in groups III (DPI Level dB) was higher than that in group IV. The results show the minimum and the maximum value of the whole Distortion Product (DP1 Level) recorded for all tested (212) ear was (-3.65dB) and (20.39dB) respectively over frequency bands 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 kHz.
