The 1,2,3-Benzotriazol were evaluated in the present work as corrosion inhibitors for protection of the carbon steel in chloride solutions. The corrosion protection performance was investigated by means of weight loss and DC polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Scanning electron microscope was used to study the surface topography during corrosion tests. The results show that all inhibitors under study confer corrosion protection to the carbon steel forming a thin organic layer on the substrate surface. The following quantum chemical indices such as the charge density distribution, highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), energy gap, ?N and dipole moment (u) were considered. The inhibition efficiencies obtained from the employed methods are nearly closed. From the obtained data it was found that, the inhibition efficiency increases with increasing the inhibitor concentration until the optimum one.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among leadership styles and employee performance in higher education. The study was examining the impact of transformational, transactional and Laissez-Faire leadership styles on employee performance. The study was conducted through descriptive a cross – sectional study involving a self administered questionnaire was used as the measuring instrument. The study population comprised all staff in University of Somalia Registration with 310 numbers. Slovin’s formula or method was used to determine the sample size and the sample number was calculated 76 one. Stratified sampling was used in this research.the data was collected and then analyses was used SPSS. And presented in tables, charts and pie charts. The results showed that transformational leadership style, transactional leadership style and lazier-faire leadership styles all have positive but weak impact on employee performance in Universities in Somalia. Recommendations based on these research findings are intended to aid University of Somalia to improve its employee’s performance by training managers and leaders to use styles of leadership. Leadership training program is more important than ever. And also, as the study found that there is a positive relationship between the three styles and employee performance in UNISO, and that indicates there may exist other variables which influence employee performance, so the researcher recommends that UNISO should launch another research to find those other variables.

The removing dye from wastewaters is a main concern in textile industries letter, press and other commercial manufacturing systems in this decade. This process can make our environment polluted and endanger human being health as they are poisonous and have negative effects on human body. This review paper firstly recognizes synthetic pollution, its characterization and poisonous particles; then, it presents several improvements regarding optimum methods for treating and removing dye from wastewater and finally it suggests some adsorbents that are bio-based and money-saving. A comprehensive category of adsorbents including agricultural waste, bio and natural materials and industrial waste were reported. This paper suggests adsorption method using bio-waste adsorbent as an acceptable method in order to remove dye from waste water. However, further studies are needed to scrutinize the precise results of this approach in industry.

Successful healthcare organizations emphasize attracting human resource assets and aggressively seek to resolve and prevent high employee turnover. Measuring employee turnover in a healthcare department is fundamental to the success of the organization and the quality of care it delivers. The most important impact of employee turnover may be the effect on patient care. Generally, all patients prefer to be cared for by the same members of a healthcare team each time they require treatment. This involves building relationships between the patients and their respective healthcare organizations. Determining why employees are leaving an organization is an important part of developing an effective strategy. This study trace the effects of manager leadership characteristics on staff retention in private hospitals of 2 distract in Punjab. Effects of manager characteristics were traced to retention through work characteristics, job stress, job satisfaction, commitment, and intent to stay. Our sample size is about 100 employees in the hospitals and we collected it from different hospitals in Sargodha and Lahore district. For estimation and result analysis we used SPSS software .Descriptive statistics, Frequency distribution are done to get results and Bar charts are made to interpret results. On the basis of result we conclude that to keeps the employees in hospital for a long period of time needs to announce bonus for them. So they motivate and perform their level best for increasing the performance of hospital. Further to retain employees in hospital for a long period of time requires to give each employee equal career opportunities. On the bases of result we can say that every job is required to give training to employees for their better performance.

The main objective of the study is to empirically examine the impact of working capital management on Pakistani manufacturing corporate profitability. The study uses a sample of randomly selected companies from three manufacturing sectors i.e. consumer goods, chemical and construction & material for the period of five years ranging from 2006 to 2010. The correlation and panel data regression analysis were used to analyze the impact of working capital management on the corporate profitability. The results indicate that, the average collection period of account receivables, inventory conversion period and cash conversion cycle have strong negative relationship with corporate profitability while the current ratio has positive relationship with operating profit. The study also finds that the firm size and current assets to total assets ratio has significant positive relationship with corporate profitability. Findings indicate that finance manager can improve the firm profitability by focusing on each component of working capital. More specifically they can improve the firm profitability by reducing account receivable period, inventory conversion period and cash conversion cycle. We also find that average collection period is the most crucial component of working capital. So the manger can add value to the firm by fastening the account receivable conversion period.

The vibrational spectroscopy of 2-Hydroxy-6-methyl-5-Nitropyridine (HMNP) by means of quantum chemical calculation has been studied. The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of HMNP have been recorded in the region 3500-50cm-1 and 4000-400cm-1 respectively. The fundamental vibrational frequencies and intensity of vibrational bands have been evaluated using density functional theory (DFT) with standard B3LYP/6-311+G (d,p) basis set combinations for optimized geometries. The observed FT-IR and FT-Raman vibrational frequencies have been anlaysed and compared with theoretically predicted vibrational frequencies. The assignments of bands to various normal modes of molecule have also been carried out. The electric dipole moment (?) and the first hyper polarazibility (?) values of the investigated molecule have been computed using DFT calculations. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occur with in the molecule.

Bacterial communities exist everywhere in the universe so in the caves. The ever increasing human activities inside any cave, in the form of ecotourism exert a major impact on its native microbial communities, which often stops its growth and pollutes the whole ecosystem. The situation is often found to be responsible for producing some human pathogenic bacteria inside it, which might pose a threat of infection to the other tourist. Kotumsar cave is a well known tourist pulling limestone cave of central India. In the present study the soil bacterial communities earlier isolated and characterized from different microhabitats of Kotumsar cave have been further confirmed by molecular identifications by applying 16S rDNA analysis and serotyping. All bacterial strains were also assayed for antibiotic resistance. Among the tested strains, support the PIB-win results and also shows the maximum resistance (about 69.23%) to Vancomycin and Polymyxin B.

A single factor that enables the teachers to discharge their responsibilities is commitment. This commitment is towards their profession, excellence, students, society and basic human values. A teacher is supposed to possess various quality attributes like updating of knowledge, teaching skills, providing course material from various sources to the students, outside class-room assistance to the students, use of modern teaching aids, communicating the teaching plans and revising and upgrading the syllabus. The degree of importance in various quality attributes of faculty members is examined by the students. The sample has been taken from 44 institutions of higher education in Haryana. 10 students from each institution were included in the sample. These 44 institutions include 19 urban aided institutions (13 co-ed. And 6 women colleges), 8 urban government institutions (5 co-ed. and 3 women colleges), 11 rural aided institutions (3 co-ed. and 8 women colleges) and 6 rural government institutions (3 co-ed. and 3 women colleges).

Persian shallot grows as a wild plant in some mountains of Iran. Persian shallot, a bulb producing plant from Alliaceae, is a wildly growing plant collected for its bulbs. Bulbs of Persian shallot, called “Mooseer” in Farsi, are oval, white skinned, usually of one and rarely of two main bulbs and are completely different from common shallot (Allium ascalonicum). In this study, various physical properties of Persian shallot were determined at a moisture content of 68.62% w.b. The equatorial diameters, polar diameters, shape index, volume and density were 36.647 ±3.30 mm, 33.242 ± 3.47 mm, 1.0898 ± 0.07, 3.5106 ± 0.961 cm3 and 5211.292 ± 1108.463 Kg.m-3, respectively. The static coefficient of friction was obtained on the plywood surface followed by the glass and the galvanized iron sheet surfaces. The shear strength increased with an increase in loading rate. Linear model for describing the mass of Persian shallot, by applying dimensional characteristics and volume was investigated. The results showed that mass modeling of Persian shallot based on oblate spheroid shaped volume (Vosp) and geometric mean diameter (Dgm) are the most appropriate models, respectively.

A design of experiment is a plan to collect measurement or observation according to a pre arrange plan in such a way as to provide the basic for valid inference. This work was carried out to examine the research station effect on the yield of Cowpea varieties. The station are four locations in Nigeria (Kaduna, Shika, Mokwa and Kano). Eight different varieties of Cowpea were considered (Tg 1910-8F, Tg 1844 – 1E, Tg1019 – 2E, Tg1904 – 6F, Tg1910 – 2F, Tg1448 – 2E, Tg1908 – 1F, and Tg1740 – 2F). The data are secondary data, collected from International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) Ibadan, Oyo State. The result showed that research locations has no significant effect on the yields of cowpea varieties. The use of Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) design in Kaduna station, Shika station, Mokwa station and Kano station had 27.2%, 109.9%, 63.04% and 53.7% gain in experimental precision respectively.
