In a time that various moral schools boasted in the west, 'hedonism' school did its work outstandingly more than others. Plato that knew ethics as a category of 'aesthetic and beauty' and Aristotle school that introduced moderation as a moral pattern and moral data filled everywhere; Immanuel Kant's moral school (1724-1804), famous and great German philosopher, stepped onto the arena and with a new speculation caused a revolution in thinking world and plane of ethics that it has been compared to Copernican revolution in the world of the heavens. By establishing metaphysic and categorical doctrine and deontology in plane of ethics he introduced moral action in acting according to intent and fulfillment of responsibility of conscience and he believed that because reason is a general endowment therefore rules and laws should be general. But it is important to know that what rules and laws of reasons are and how they can be obtained. Kant spoke about reality, law and social relations beyond evaluation of reason, action and reaction of human's wisdom. He knew that reality and law after criticism and analysis of wisdom and thought are recognizable and constant. From this viewpoint, Kant believed that human makes his aim and has a natural value that undoubtedly distinguishes him from other creatures. The writer intends to criticize and analyze some moral opinions of Kant from his philosophical viewpoint in moral plane and state of human attainment to real perfection and felicity in the shadow of practical reason.

Mosquitoes are the vectors for the dreadful diseases of mankind. In this study, laboratory experimentation of assessing the mosquito larvicidal potentiality of Moringa oleifera plant extract was carried out. Extracting solvents such as hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol were used and the larvicidal activity was assessed against Culex gelidus mosquito larvae under laboratory conditions. The effective larval mortality was found in the methanol extract at concentrations of 500 ?g/mL. The study thus provides evidence on the potential of indigenous plant extracts to serve as mosquito larvicides

Linear complexity is a vital complexity measure and pseudorandom sequences with good correlation properties, large linear complexity, and balance statistics are widely used in modern communication and cryptology. This paper study the linear complexity of an inverse paths of a binary de Bruijn cycle by presenting set of pseudorandom binary sequences from de Bruijn graphs. And, it is shown that such sequences have large linear complexity.

The cholesteatoma of the middle ear is a chronic otitis qualified as dangerous because of the risk of evolution of potentially serious complications. Labyrinthine fistula represents an erosive loss of the endochondral bone overlying the labyrinth. Labyrinthine fistula occurrence is one of the most common complications in chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma(2-3). Very commonly , the fistula is seen in the lateral semicircular canal(6-7). But very rarely cases of lysis for the three semicircular canals. We report the case of 30-year-old man admitted to the emergency for right fetid purulent otorrhea and rotary type vertigo for 15 days, who presented a chronic right sided otorrhea 8 years ago and homolateral hypoacousis. Computed tomography shows lysis of the 3 semicircular canals. The treatment is essentially surgical with open technique. Regression of vertigo and dry ear is the benefits.

Mathematics has double characters including science and technology. What sort of technology the mathematics is? The direct research object of mathematics is mode, and the mode is the carrier of information, and the evolvement of mode is the process of information processing and information conversion. Therefore, mathematics is the technology of information processing and information conversion.

Increasing need for energy and limited fossil resources, increasing environmental pollution resulting from the burning of these resources, the effects of global warming and the greenhouse effects, acid rain and the need to balance the propagation of CO2, all call for the necessity of saving fossil resources and increased attention to the use of renewable energy sources. Wind energy is one of the main types of renewable energies that have always attracted the human mind so that man is always thinking of using this energy in the industry. The human had been used wind to move boats and sailing ships and windmills. In the current situation with regard to the above mentioned terms and economic justification of wind energy compared to other energy sources, wind energy seems to be vital and essential. This article firstly provides an introduction to the field installation locations of wind turbines in the power system and then various methods for predicting wind speed and power of wind farms are expressed. After that Modeling of wind powerhouses are explained. Finally, wind powerhouse modeling methods are fully described and the equations of each model are given.

Numerous studies on adolescents have explored factors associated with sexual risk-taking behaviors among youth. However, few studies have examined the link between social exclusion of youth in social and sexual matters and sexual risk-taking behaviors associated with HIV/AIDS infection. This study was carried out using cross sectional design among 365 students randomly selected in secondary school in Bondo District, Kenya in order to determine the link between social exclusion and sexual risk-taking behavior associated with HIV/AIDS infection. The study also examined the moderating effect of age, gender and orphanhood on the relationship between social exclusion and sexual risk-taking behaviors. The findings of the study revealed positive correlation between social exclusion and sexual risk-taking behavior associated with HIV/AIDS infection. The study found out that age, gender and orphanhood moderates the relationship between social exclusion and sexual risk-taking behavior. Conclusion drawn from the study was that an increase in exclusion of youth on basis of age, gender and orphanhood could hamper efforts to slow down the spread of HIV infection in successive generations. Current best practice emphasizes the need for multilevel inclusion of youth in the family, schools, church and societal decision making processes in social and sexual matters that affect them.

The study was conducted on the morphological aspects such as shell shape and shell dimensions of freshwater snails Bellamya dissimilis and Lymnaea acuminata. The shell of B. dissimilis is globular in shape with broad ovate mouth and 4-5 whirls that are dextrally rotated. Shell length and shell width ranges from 2.3-3.9cm and 3.2-5.9cm respectively. Snail B. dissimilis gives birth to a large number (120-130) of fully developed young ones measures up to 0.2-0.5cm in length. The shell of L. acuminata is tapering conical with 3-5 whorls that end in dextral opening of shell. Shell length and shell width ranges from 1.2-2.7cm and 1.9-3.5cm respectively. The snail is hermaphrodite and breeds almost throughout the year, this snail contains the egg clutches and each egg clutch contains 170-180 eggs.

Elephantiasis results of chronic lymphedema due to a variety of obstructive diseases of the lymphatic system. It’s a rare disease outside areas where filariasis is endemic. Peno-scrotal Elephantiasis is characterized by gross enlargement of the genitalia and legs. Observation: We return a case of a 45-year-old patient referred for a giant scrotum for 10 years. The disease become disabling in that it makes sexual relations difficult, affects urination and also limited the patient mobility. He underwent a complete surgical resection of pathological tissue and peno-scrotal reconstruction, with good functional and aesthetic results. Pathology of the specimen was suggestive of either a non-specific fibrosis. We update through a review of the literature aspects of the diagnostic and therapeutic care of the peno-scrotal elephantiasis.
