The compound term ‘Street children’ refers to a group of children with special age groups who are passing through their adolescence having identity crisis and strongly feeling need for support and help. These children are de facto those who walk on the shoulders of the streets to earn some money for their families. Their contact with their families varies from a daily visit to a few times a year; however, they feel a sense of belonging to them [families]. In the present study, the researcher has tried to investigate the motives/reasons that account for the coming-into-existence and development of the street children who take up jobs that never conform to the norms of the society and he has also strived to scrutinize the different aspects of young age employment.

We all know that a certain story may be told differently by various people. It is interesting to know whether a person’s social characteristics and career have any possible effect on the way they tell a story. Therefore, the main aim of the present research study is to investigate whether there is any correlation between the social class of different people and the way they tell a story. To this aim, 15 people with different social classes, 5 janitors, 5 teachers and 5 doctors of medicine, were selected randomly. They were all from Rasht and asked to describe one terrible story of their lives. Then by using Labov and Waletzky’s story component, the gathered data were analyzed. The results indicated that there is no significant correlation between the social class of the participants and the way they tell a story. In other words, according to the gathered data, no fixed pattern was found for the way different people who belong to a specific social class tell a story.

The study was an examination of the Amnesty Programme proclaimed for militant in the Niger-Delta by the President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua’s administration in 2009, within the context of the role of the Nigerian State in the management and resolution of the conflicts. This was against the backdrop of the protracted conflicts that engulfed the region. At the peak of the conflicts, there were frequent attacks and vandalizations of oil and gas pipelines and installations, of and the rampant abductions of expatriates by militant groups spread over five hundred camps in the creeks of the Niger-Delta. The total population for the area studied was 31, 224,577. Major findings of the study revealed that the Amnesty Programmeproclaimed for militants in the Niger-Delta was to stop the carnage perpetrated by the militants and usher in peace, progress and development in the region. This no doubt entrenched durable peace in the Nigeria-Delta Region of Nigeria.Thus the paper clearly elucidates on the importance of the amnesty programme as a very vital instrument of sustainable peacebuilding, and emphasizes o the need for holistic reforms that address despoliation,pauperization and colossal underdevelopment of Niger Delta region, which were the raison d’etre for the crisis. The paper further made some laudable recommendations towards an all- inclusive amnesty programme which will usher in sustainable peace, security, infrastructure, high human capital and enduring sustainable development to the region.

Equations of curves or straight lines have reference to certain set of axes. In fact we shall have different equations for the same curve or straight line when referred to different set of co-ordinate axes. This may happen when the origin is shifted to a point keeping the directions of the axes the same or when the axes are rotated through same angle keeping the origin unaltered. Transformation of an object in computer graphics is based on mathematical theory and uses an important concept related to matrix theory. Transformation of an object may be related to 2dimensional or 3 dimensional or more .A transformation which map 3-D objects onto 2-D screen we are going to call it Projection .In general there are two ways to represent the transformation of an object (i) transformation are done by using the rules of co-ordinates axes (ii)transformation are done by representing in the matrix form. In this paper it is tried to study the properties of matrix used to develop transformation of an object related to computer graphics theory. It is tried to study set of non-zero vectors are used to represent a matrix and is helpful to do transformation of an object. Keywords : object ; transformation ; dimensional; matrix;

The General Concept: Higher Expected Returns Require Taking Higher Risk Most investors are comfortable with the notion that taking higher levels of risk is necessary to expect to earn higher returns. In this note, we explain Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) that has been developed to make this relationship precise. By applying CAPM to Pharmaceutical sector at Karachi Stock Exchange we examined that Beta ( ), the measure of systematic risk in CAPM, has significant impact on returns of the securities.

Childbirth interventions are still common in the basic maternity units of the city of Kindu in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This increasing medicalization of the delivery process tends to diminish the woman's own ability to give birth and to produce negative effects on her health and her delivery experience. The objective of this study was to determine the rate of childbirth interventions in basic maternity hospitals in the city of Kindu and the factors that influence them. This was a descriptive cross-sectional survey of 3004 women registered in all the basic maternity hospitals in the city of Kindu during the year 2019.Information related to age, level of education, occupation or profession, parity, interventions performed at delivery as well as factors related to health care providers were collected from the documentary analysis of the records of the deliveries. The data collected were encoded on Excel sheets and exported to STATA 13 software. The overall rate of delivery interventions in the basic maternity units of the city of Kindu in 2019 was 70.57%. Factors determining delivery interventions were: provider education (p = 0.000), provider education (p = 0.000), and emergency obstetric and neonatal care training (p = 0.000). Delivery interventions are a serious reproductive and perinatal health problem in the basic maternity units of the city of Kindu.This study suggests the need to implement strategies that can reduce the extent of these unhelpful and even dangerous interventions during labor and delivery, including the establishment of a protocol for the reduction of delivery interventions for midwives, the popularization of the World Health Organization's recommendations on intrapartum care for a positive delivery experience, and the sensitization of all health care providers on the observance of evidence-based medicine.

Tropospheric ozone is one of the key species in the atmosphere and it plays a vital role in the air quality, atmospheric chemistry, and climate change over a region. Being a secondary species produced from the photolysis of trace gases, ozone offers a good tracer to comprehend the atmospheric air quality. Economic liberalization in India began in early nineties which lead to a significant growth in industrial, energy and transport sectors in India. The advent of multinational industries in Indian cities could significantly increase the population. The rapid enhancement in industrial and anthropogenic activities in Indian cities could result a deterioration of air quality and this has influenced the rural areas as well. This work aims at the estimation of air quality in rural environment in Indian sub-continent before and after the economic liberalization in India. It shows an evidence of increase in tropospheric ozone over these hotspots lying along the coastal belt of the Arabian Sea which were mostly unpolluted prior to the period of liberalization.

The myelogram is an essential tool for the diagnosis of haematological disorders. The sternal puncture is the gesture that allows the extraction of the spinal cord. This invasive technique is achievable by practitioners outpatient but is not devoid of life-threatening complications. We report the case of a patient hospitalized for etiological assessment of a myelodysplastic syndrome, sent in cardio-respiratory arrest state after sternal puncture. The echocardiography performed concomitantly with cardiopulmonary resuscitation was able to demonstrate cardiac tamponade by hemopericardium. Following an unsuccessful xiphoidal puncture attempt, a rescue thoracotomy was performed. The thoracotomy revealed a wound in the anterior wall of the right ventricle. Complications of sternal punctures can be fatal. The choice of the material used, the learning curve of the gesture itself, the early detection of complications are necessary elements to consider.
