Nowadays, conducting supervision and inspection to prevent occurrence of crime and to remove its commitment grounds in the society is one of the main criminal policies of the governments which is usually done by governmental and judicial institutions. Planning and creating supervisory and inspective institutions and sanctions can be used to achieve the abovementioned goals. However, the role of people and NGOs in prevention of crime occurrence cannot be ignored; fear of social reactions forces a person to respect the values of the society and avoid norm-breaking. The viewpoint of Islam is using the inspective and supervisory tools with an emphasis on the role of people to obviate the grounds of crime occurrence in society. The rulers of the Islamic societies have practiced fighting against crime with an emphasis on the situational prevention. Moreover, promotion of good and prevention of evil has been an instance of the citizens’ participation in supervising each others’ deeds through recommendation of the admirable actions and prevention of the evil deeds.

Ultrasonic velocity at 318 K in the binary systems of Methyl methacrylate + Toluene and Methyl methacrylate + Dimethylacetamide has been evaluated as a function of concentration and temperature, by using certain theoretical models like Nomoto’s relation, Impedance dependence relation, Van-Deal and Van-geel ideal mix relations, Free length theory and Jungie’s method. The experimental values of ultrasonic velocity are compared with theoretical values. The best suitable theoretical relation was found by calculating the percentage deviation and chi-square test.

A rapid, simple, sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of Molybdenum (VI) using Cinnamaldehyde thosemicabazone (CMTSC). Molybdenum (VI) forms a green coluored water-soluble complex with CMTSC in presence of Triton-X (100) (5%) (micellar medium) and the complex shows maximum absorbance while the reagent blank shows negligible absorbance at lmax 400 nm and at pH 4.0. Beer's law was obeyed in the range 0.095-0.959 mg/mL and the optimum concentration range from ringbom plot was 0.191-0.863 mg/mL of Molybdenum (VI). The molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity for the coloured solution are found to be 5.05x104 L mol-1cm-1 and 0.0018-µg.cm-2 respectively. The interference effect of various diverse ions has been studied. The complex shows 1:1 [Mo (VI): CMTSC] stoichiometry with stability constant 3.5x105. The standard deviation of the method in the determination of 0.383-µg ml-1 of Molybdenum (VI) was 0.001. First and second order derivative spectrophotometric methods are developed at lmax 420 nm and 440 nm respectively for the determination of Molybdenum (VI) which was more sensitive than the zero order method. The developed method has been used for the determination of Molybdenum (VI) in foodstuffs, pharmaceutical samples and in alloys. The results are in good agreement with the certified values.

India is passing through conclusive due to advancement in science and technology but, at the same time 882 million people of this country are caught in the twilight zone of development and under-development. Despite the fact of viewing human resources as an asset, there is a gloomy side to this issue. An element that has surfaced in the warning single of the world bank as related to India is that by the turn of this century, India will have nearly three-fourths of the world ’illiterate population, on the side we side we have abundance of human resources the brain trust of a nation, and on the other side, we are in a state of emergency to convert the human as an asset,. This is possible only through continuous recycling training and re-training. In the past human resource was treated as a commodity exchanged for wages. It was considered as cogs in the machine. It was hired and fired at will. Large scale un employment and availability of human resources in plenty in developing nations made employers devote less attention to human resources. Today there is a linkage between resource and performance of the organizations in terms of productivity and production. Every organization will grow and derive in the present day environment with the help of its training and development. This research paper is made to know the various training given to the employees in this particular institution for the development of the employees.

In recent years, water exploitation has become greater for many reasons such as population growth, industrial development, urbanization growth and consequently increased demand for food products. Hence the rate of exploitation and consumption ground water become greater than recharge of them, in other words input of ground water system is less than its output and system with negative balance sheet has positive feedback and it is collapsing. Thus it is very significant to determine the suitable position for Artificial Recharge of ground water. One of the management methods for water resources is Multi Criteria Decision Making. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a structured technique for dealing with complex decisions that was developed by Thomas L. Saaty in the 1980 year. It provides a comprehensive and rational framework for structuring a decision problem, for representing and quantifying its elements, for relating those elements to overall goals, and for evaluating alternative solutions. The base of this model is comparing variables by pair wise by Matrix relationship. In this way, pair wise of the effective variables on the concrete Pavement were considered and based on relative weights the output was extent. In the present research, combination of Indexing system Method with Analytical Hierarchy Process has been applied to assess the Selection of most appropriate area to establish soil damp for artificial recharge of underground aquifers. The findings of the research show that zone 3 with 0/3606 points promotes in first rank among 5 studied zones and thus it is the most appropriate zone for Artificial Recharge of ground waters, in contrast zone 5 with 0/1731 point goes down to the last rank and so it isn`t suitable for Artificial Recharge and zones (2,4,1) are located in next ranks.

In the information era, all the processes, sciences and different structures, under the shadow of IT and communication, grow and differ so fast that it puts staff and organizations in need of some tools to use them for coordinating themselves with the fast evolutions that have happened. Therefore, officials should perceive the potential advantages of achieving applications of IT and communication and they should apply these applications in their universities. This current research has the aimed of studying the preparation for establishment of web-based business processes in Zabol University. The method of research is descriptive-survey research. In this research, all the officials and experts of the organizational scope of Zabol University have been chosen as actuarial society. Since the actuarial society was very small, sampling in the form of census was used, so the whole actuarial society was chosen as sample. Therefore, the total number of officials and experts in the organizational scope are 57 People that were chosen as sample. For collecting data, questionnaire with adoption of Kirty Roykar (2004) has been used. The justifiability of the questionnaire is content type and its stability has been calculated by using Cranach’s alpha coefficient of 98%.

Anthropogenic activities such as pesticide use, coal-burning, and manufacturing introduce harmful substances that have high resistance to degradation by abiotic and biotic factors, and as such persist in the environment. They build up in the environment when decomposers are unable to break them down. Plants and fish take up these substances which are then transferred along the food chain until they reach the highest tropic level. These substances are collectively known as Persistent bioaccumulative toxic substances (PBTs). They typically accumulate in fatty tissues of humans and other species and are slowly metabolized, often increasing in concentration within the food chain. PBTs have been linked to a range of adverse effects in humans, including nervous system disorders, reproductive and developmental problems, cancer, gene mutation, alteration of sexual characteristics and other hormonal functions.

The study was carried out for determine the amount of input- output energy used and indices of energy and economic of fattening farms under different farm sizes in Qazvin city of Iran. For this purpose the data were collected from 30 fattening farms. The surveyed farms were classified into three groups of small (less than 50 heads), medium (50 to 150 heads) and large farms (more than 150 heads).The total average energy input of 24003 MJ calf -1 was required for fattening farm. The share of feed by 75% of the total energy inputs was the highest energy input. This was followed by fossil fuels (16%) and young calf (4%), respectively. The energy use efficiency, energy productivity, Specific energy, and net energy were found as 0.009 (kg MJ-1), 114.8 (MJ kg-1) and -20553(MJ calf-1), respectively. According to the study results, the contribution of indirect energy was higher than that of direct energy; also the share of renewable energy was more than that of non-renewable energy. Economic analysis showed that total average cost of production was 909.8 ($ calf-1). The benefit-cost ratio and productivity were 1.1 and 0.22 (kg $-1), respectively. The results showed that medium farms in terms of economic and energy indexes lower position than the small and large farms. So, they should change their scale to achieve higher efficiency.
