The purpose of writing the current paper is to survey the relationship between managers’ emotional intelligence with their employees’ citizenship behavior in Saderat Bank in Alborz province. The research methodology was descriptive one in which 2 questionnaires foe gathering data were applied. The results of Chi Square test show that there are positive and meaningful correlations between emotional intelligence and its dimensions with OCB. Also the impact of empathy and motivating oneself were more than other dimensions. After that the positive correlation between educational level and OCB in employees was proved. Finally applying Binomial text shows that all variables apart from social skills and OCB were placed in low levels.

Hydroxypropylcellulose acrylate (HPCA) macromonomer was prepared by esterification of hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) with acryloyl chloride in homogenous solution of dimethyl formamaide (DMF). Then the produced HPCA macromonomer was copolymerized with ethylhexyl acrylate (EHA) using two types of crosslinkers and azobisisobutyronitrile(AIBN) as initiator. Several parameters were considered namely, monomers feed ratio, type and concentration of the applied crosslinkers. The synthesized macromonomer was characterized by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1HNMR) spectroscopic analyses. Also, the thermal properties of the crosslinked copolymers were investigated by using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Furthermore, morphological properties of these crosslinked copolymers were studied through scan electron microscope (SEM) and their swelling efficiency was thoroughly investigated in heavy and light oil.

An organic nonlinear optical crystal of Cesium Sulfamate crystal has been synthesised and grown by the slow evaporation solution growth method. Single crystals of optical quality were obtained by slow evaporation technique. The grown crystals were characterised by powder XRD, UV-visible spectroscopy, DTA analysis and SHG measurement test. The SHG efficiency of crystal is greater than urea and transmittance cut off wavelength is 424nm. Hyperpolarizability analysis of Cesium Sulfamate were performed with the help of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations using Gaussian 03 software.

This empirical study attempts to examine Random walk and Weak Form Efficiency of capital markets of Pakistan , India , Srilanka and Bangladesh constituted as SAARC countries . The Daily , Weekly and Monthly observations of period Jan 2005 to Dec 2010 were examined by using broadly used tests; Autocorrelation, Ljung-Box Q-Statistic, Run test, Unit root test and Variance Ratio tests were used. All daily returns of indices found to be follow non-normal distribution and all monthly returns of all indices were negatively skewed. To sum all, we conclude that none of capital markets is characterized by Random walk and hence are not Weak form Efficient for the examined period. This indicates that there exists utility for technical analysis, availability of arbitrage profit and opportunities for investment management by diversification of portfolios across the markets.

Agriculture was the mainstay of the Nigerian economy before the discovery of oil in commercial quantity in the late 1960s to early 1970s. The sector provides employment opportunity for a larger portion of the nation’s population. So also is the provision of raw materials for most industries and provision of food for the nation. With the discovery of oil in the country, the sector has been witnessing decline in terms of performance. This has prompted the government in the early 1990s to establish fadama among many other measures aim at alleviating the problem facing agriculture. This study therefore examines the impact of fadama administration on the performance of agricultural sector in Nigeria. The study adopted qualitative analysis by comparing agricultural sector’s performance pre and post fadama establishment. The findings show mixed fortune in the performance of the sector. Whereas the total agricultural production has been on the increase, it has not been enough to meet the domestic consumption as the nation still import some agricultural products especially food items. Also the contribution of the sector to GDP is declining much as labour mobility from the sector to more lucrative sector is becoming rampant. The study therefore concludes that more funding be allocated to fadama in particular and the entire sector in general so as to address the problems detected by the findings.

The study investigated the effect of workplace deviance on employee performance with reference to Unilever Manufacturing. Nigeria Plc. Lagos, Nigeria. The objective of the study is to determine whether organizational deviance and interpersonal deviance jointly affect employee performance and also to ascertain the association between workplace deviance behavior variable and employee performance. The study employed survey research. Primary data was used for the study with questionnaire as research instrument. The subjects were two hundred and twenty employees of Unilever Manufacturing, Nigeria Plc. The six hypotheses formulated for this study were tested using multiple regression and Pearson’s Correlation. The finding revealed that organizational deviance and interpersonal deviance jointly and individually predict employee performance, the result also indicated association between workplace deviance behavior variables adopted and business performance.

Salafiyah is a movement among muslims that has roots in the primary centuries after advent of islam. This movement strongly want to follow the exact behaviors of the primary muslims and is against any use of humans' ideas for obtaining ideas and orders of islam. that is because of that salafiyah considers the primary centuries of Islamic era as a golden era for islam and muslims .basics of this idea was constructed by ahl-al-hadith and then ahmad-ibn-hanbal .but the salafiyah mainly constructed by ibn-taymiyah.the construction that had been built by ibn-taymiyah was edited and brought to operation by mohammad-ibn-abdolwahhab.by using salafi ideas as an operating system ,wahhabis became able to establish three wahhabi governments one after another in the central Arabia and eventually they conquered the biggest part of Arabia politically and religiously and even penetrate in some other countries and it was the most important victory for salafiyah in its history to develop its ideas and politics.

In the present study, the FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of 2,4-dimethoxybenzonitrile have been recorded in the region 4000–400 cm_1 and 3500–50 cm_1, respectively. The fundamental modes of vibrational frequencies of (24DMBN) are assigned. Theoretical information on the optimized geometry, harmonic vibrational frequencies, infrared and Raman intensities were obtained by means of ab initio Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) gradient calculations with complete relaxation in the potential energy surface using 6-311++G(d,p)) basis set. The vibrational frequencies which were determined experimentally from the spectral data are compared with those obtained theoretically from ab initio and DFT calculations. A close agreement was achieved between the observed and calculated frequencies by refinement of the scale factors. The infrared and Raman spectra were also predicted from the calculated intensities. Thermodynamic properties like entropy, heat capacity, zero point energy, have been calculated for the molecule. The calculated HOMO–LUMO energy gap reveals that charge transfer occurs within the molecule. Unambiguous vibrational assignment of all the fundamentals was made using the total energy distribution (TED).

Induction motors plays a vital role in almost all the industrial drive systems because of their simple, efficient and robust nature offering high degree of reliability. These machines face various stresses during operating conditions which may lead to different types of faults. Hence condition monitoring and maintenance becomes necessary in order to avoid unexpected failures. Different fault monitoring techniques for induction motors can be broadly categorized as model based techniques, signal processing techniques, and artificial intelligence based soft computing techniques. The traditional model based diagnostic techniques provides a good detection of the fault in the machine but nowadays artificial intelligence techniques have been introduced to overcome the existing inaccuracy. Soft computing techniques enable better analysis of a faulty system even if models are inaccurate. Besides giving improved performance these techniques are easy to extend and modify. This paper provides a comprehensive study of conventional and innovative techniques. Keywords: Induction motor, motor faults, diagnostic techniques

Cloud Computing (CC) becomes the most promising technology to reach the advanced educational services, because it essentially provides a huge computing and storage capacities. Cloud computing provides reliable and tailored dynamic computing environments for education services. On the other side, e-learning has been realized as an efficient way of learning. The increasing number of students, services, education contents and resource as well as the way of adapting e-learning becomes problematic. As a potential technology to overcome the problems in e-learning, this study explores the potential impacts and the measure of how the educational services can be benefited by cloud. For that purpose the study attempt to adapt a proposed framework for virtual learning system in an extended cloud computing environment. This framework can be applied everywhere where there is a need for intensive teaching and learning in higher education. The applied case study findings of implementing the proposed framework equate the study expectations, where the student’s satisfaction significantly increased compared with the existing system.
