A modern man is different from his ancestors in different perspectives. Though the developments have created new problems and crises ahead of him, development in technology and science has brought up welfare , and has changed the life fundamentally. This study was aimed at investigating the base of spiritual crises and problems in a qualitative manner. Some of the problems ahead of us as human beings are: identity crisis, knowledge crisis, moral and psychological crisis. In this regard, Rumi (Moulana) is one of those people who have referred to all of human beings in all the times. Using the language of flute, he has warned the unawares and has guided them toward the road of bliss. In reaching the aims of the study, the crises were first defined. Later, the solution was offered from Rumi’s view point.

In this article the researcher seeks to provoke discussions on the unseen curriculum and its role on students’ learning of professionalism. The article draws educators’ attention to the formation of professional values through the concealed curriculum via examination of issues like how the veiled curriculum functions within education as a countervailing force to educations’ push for professionalism. The article defines expert values as standards for specialized practice, which are based on the agreement of expert groups of people. Professional values like competence, honesty, confidentiality and appropriate language among other virtues, provide a framework for appraising the ideas and viewpoints that influence success at work place. The researcher responds to key concerns about pervasive calls emanating from unprofessional and academic onlookers alike to strengthen the teaching of professional values within the formal curriculum. She employed exploratory mixed methods design. She distributed 498 closed-ended questionnaires to randomly selected respondents at different times and interviewed ten key informants. The results revealed that it is possible to teach information about professional values, ethical reasoning, or improve understanding of professional language and ethical concepts, but course material or the formal curriculum is very limited in decisively influencing students’ personality or ensuring moral conduct. The results also revealed that students learning of professional values takes place not within the formal curriculum but in a more subtle, less officially recognized curriculum. The researcher maintains that any attempt to develop a comprehensive professionalism curriculum must acknowledge the broader cultural milieu (the humanistic climate) within which that curriculum functions. The researcher concludes by proposing thorough exploration of the humanistic climate (the hidden curriculum) in which professionalism is caught rather than taught, which if made positive is likely to allow expertise principles to blossom among young workers

Implementation of Human Resource Information Systems in an organization facilitates information flow, reduces cost, saves time and enables employees to take effective decisions. It reduces the burden of employees and creates a stress free work life. With this background, an attempt has been made to assess the level of employee satisfaction on HRIS usage in selected software companies in Bangalore. For this research, 50 companies were selected based on purposive sampling method through a structured questionnaire administered. The sample included 350 IT professionals from different designations. The analysis of the research was shown to be reliable and valid. Statistical tools like descriptive statistics, ANOVA and t-test were used. The results of the data analysis demonstrates significance between HRIS and designation wise, HR processes, time & cost, information flow, decision making, in the organizations. The scope of the study is restricted to only HRIS usage in the selected software companies and measures the impact of HRIS on HR processes, time & cost, information flow and decision making across various designations. The results of this research would help software companies to better understand the satisfaction level of employees towards the usage of HRIS.

Image compression has become a necessary step for making better use of available storage requirements and transmission bandwidth during the past decades. For image compression it is desirable that the selection of transform should reduce the size of resultant data set as compared to source data set. For continuous and discrete time cases, wavelet transforms and wavelet packet transform has emerged as popular techniques. This thesis paper aims to determine the best wavelet to compress the still image (fingerprint) at a particular decomposition level using wavelet transforms and wavelet packet transforms. Number of Zeros (NZ) and Retain Energy (RE) is determined for different wavelets at different threshold values ranging from 10 to 100 for decomposition level 3.

Smoking causes immediate and long-standing effects on exercise and physical activity. In addition to increasing the well-known risks for cancer, heart and respiratory diseases, smokers have less endurance and poor physical performance. To determine the smoking habits and its effect on physical activity levels in adolescents and early adults aged 18-23 years of King Khalid University Khamis Mushayat, KSA. Khamis Mushayat area near Abha city has been selected for the study. In this area, King Khalid University was selected as the population. One hundred and eighty seven female subjects 18 to 23 years from King Khalid University who smoked cigarettes and 187 females who were non smokers were selected for the study. GPAQ (Global physical activity questionnaire) was used for the survey to assess the level of physical activity (given in Appendix). Also data on height and weight were collected. With respect to body mass index of the smokers and non smokers, a significantly higher percent of the non smokers (57.5%) were of normal weight, while only 28.8% of smokers had normal weight. A majority of the smokers (45.9%) had the smoking habit for 2 years and less, whereas, 27.7% of the smokers smoked for 6 years or above. A significant majority of the smokers (63.2%) underwent physical activity only for 2 days and less, whereas the non smokers involved in physical activity for 6 days or more. Only a very small percent (8.1%) of the smokers exercised for 6 or more days in a week. Among non smokers, a minimum of 16.1% involved in physical activity, three to five days a week. All the participants in the study had mean years of smoking of 9.75 years. We found out that smokers relatively spent less time for physical activity and were more sedentary. In the present study it's clear that the students going to University are moderate smokers but their physical activity level is decreased. They usually have trends towards less physical activity and less awareness regarding the ill effects of smoking.

Knot theory is a branch of topology which is important in studying of the 3 dimensional geometry. In this study, we have proved a theorem which is related to Knot theory. Also, using some known results, one theorem has been well developed and adapted to Knot Theory.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a widespread and advancing condition that disrupts renal function, yet its influence extends beyond the kidneys. In this article, we investigate the complex interplay between CKD and the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), highlighting the often overlooked and diverse digestive disorders that affect CKD patients. We conducted a study involving 506 CKD patients admitted between January 2008 and January 2024. Our findings revealed that 89% of these patients experienced various gastrointestinal symptoms, with upper GI bleeding and vomiting being the most prevalent. These symptoms could stem from the accumulation of urea and metabolic waste products or from dialysis-related effects. Endoscopic examinations uncovered abnormalities in 85.6% of cases, primarily in the stomach and bulb, with congestive gastro-bulbaritis emerging as the predominant lesion. Our findings indicate a potential correlation between the severity of renal failure and the likelihood of upper gastrointestinal lesions. In summary, CKD significantly impacts the gastrointestinal tract, leading to a spectrum of symptoms and potential complications, including underreported upper gastrointestinal tract injuries. Early detection through upper GI endoscopy and prompt management are crucial in mitigating morbidity and mortality among CKD patients. This study underscores the importance of heightened awareness and vigilance in managing the intricate interplay between CKD and the gastrointestinal tract, ultimately benefiting patient outcomes.

The aim of the study is to examine it is sometimes necessary to use transformation of variable for treating autocorrelation of regression or time series model. Different there are many methods have been used for this purpose. This paper uses the first difference method and the Cochrane-Orcutt method in autocorrelation of malaria data in Khartoum State, treated in out-patient clinics. The data collected from the Federal Ministry of Health, National Health Information Centre, and annual reports during (2001 – 2015). By calculating the estimates for each method and errors, the paper showed that the method of differences is better in the treatment of auto-correlation, and there are limits of negatives error, because reducing these errors from least square method.
