Much interest has been displayed in the past few years in the effect on human subjects of reduction, or as far as possible, abolition of sensory stimulation, so that virtual isolation from the environment is produced. Recent comprehensive reviews have appeared, dealing with experimental work (Solomon et al. 1957) and conditions arising incidentally in the course of various therapeutic procedures (Grünthal 1957), and it is therefore unnecessary to deal with the topic at length here.

Change and development started with the creation of universe and human being. The society got developed and advanced, depended on the experiences of man in the past, environmental situation, relations with all other species around him etc. The culture and civilization also developed with the passage of time. The man could not decide with justice even with his full understanding of the of problems and situation. On the eve of unsuccessful approach of human being towards such problems and their solutions / decisions, Almighty Allah guided the human being through His messengers. The purpose of their (Prophets-pbut) being was to make favourable and justful approach to the problems faced by the man as an individual as well as in society. The culture and civilization is infact the progressive shape of man made cultures having all the past experiences of social life confronted by him in the past. Islamic civilization considers all the elements essential to effectuate the living of humanbeing. The concept of life, the purpose of life, the beliefs & thoughts, the involvement of man, the collective structure of the society etc are the basic elements of Islamic culture & civilization. Cultures & Civilizations are formulated on three major factors, i.e. Geographical, Biological and Ideological factors. Culture and Civilization also require moral groundings on which the rites and rituals are formulated and performed by all the members of the society. The purpose of Islamic civilization is ‘Peace’ and ‘Tranquility’ for the humans in this world and in the Hereafter. Therefore, the characteristics of Islamic culture & civilization are; the oneness of God, brotherhood, justice & goodwell, respect, cleanliness, moral character and freedom. Islamic culture and civilization guarranttee success for the human being in this material world and in the life after death.

This article deals with two texts written during the process of transition in South Africa, using them to explore the cultural and ethical complexity of that process. Both Njabulo Ndebele’s “The cry of Winnie Mandela” and Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela’s “A human being died that night” deal with controversial public figures, Winnie Mandela and Eugene de Kock respectively, whose role in South African history has made them part of the national iconography. Ndebele and Gobodo-Madikizela employ narrative techniques that expose and exploit faultlines in the popular representations of these figures. The two texts offer radical ways of understanding the communal and individual suffering caused by apartheid, challenging readers to respond to the past in ways that will promote healing rather than perpetuate a spirit of revenge. The part played by official histories is implicitly questioned and the role of individual stories is shown to be crucial. Forgiveness and reconciliation are seen as dependent on an awareness of the complex circumstances and the humanity of those who are labelled as offenders. This requirement applies especially to the case of “A human being died that night”, a text that insists that the overt acknowledgement of the humanity of people like Eugene de Kock is an important way of healing South African society.

Design And Manufacture

During the past few years a new series of low drag aerofoils has been developed which represents a radical departure from earlier practice. The changes envisaged are much greater than those which accompanied the general change-over from the biplane to the monoplane, and give rise to many problems whose solution requires considerable theoretical and experimental work. An important feature of the new sections is the precision in design and manufacture which is essential for their success. This has given renewed interest to the investigation of many of the detailed problems of air flow and calls for parallel improvements in manufacturing technique so as to achieve the high standard of surface finish required.The purpose of this paper is to give a brief account of the theoretical basis of the design and application of the modified profiles as aircraft wing sections. It deals with the design of aerofoils for the subsonic range only, or, to be more precise, for flight at speeds below the critical Mach Number at which shock waves are first formed. The critical value usually lies in the range 0.6 to 0.8, depending on the wing shape and incidence, as will be described in more detail later.

The paper I have presented to you here is a brief account of the work we have been doing in the past six years at Farnborough and B.L.E.U. In studying visual judgments during the past few years, we have been driven to one conclusion which is pretty well the same as that which Capt. Prowse put before you, namely, that we are reaching the limit of what the human being can do. Every visual task has a certain failure rate, and I think this rate depends on the value of V|ak, where V is the approach speed, a is the acceleration which the pilot is able and willing to apply during a corrective manoeuvre, and k is an index representing the goodness of the visual stimuli. The tendency is for V|a to increase as aircraft get larger and heavier, but we have hitherto managed to counteract this by improving the visual aids, i.e. by increasing k.

The analysis of the physiological aspects of conducting physical education classes with first graders who have cardiovascular disease is given. The research urgency is caused by the fact that recently the rate of child disability in Russia has doubled. Prevalent disabilities associated with cardiovascular diseases and their manifestations. The data analysis of morbidity and disability of children in Voronezh Region over the past five years is given, one could argue about the increase in the number of first-graders, divided in consequence to the special medical group and their reduction to the core. According to the Health Department of the Voronezh Region the highest prevalence of pathologies of the cardiovascular system in children of 7–8 years are cardiomyopathy and myocarditis various, as well as dysregulation of vascular tone, occurring in the form of neuro-circulatory dystonia. On average, pupils in the first grades of secondary institutions observed pathology of the cardiovascular system at 23.4 % of cases.We have developed a technique of physical training of correctional orientation for first graders having pathology of the cardiovascular system, including developing, gymnastic and breathing exercises that are adapted to individualisierung and dosing of the training load. The developed program allows to improve the process of physical education at physical culture lessons with first graders who have cardiovascular system disease.

Recent Developments

During the past year further experimental work has increased the applicability of this method of orienting well cores by their magnetic polarity so that definite results now total approximately 60% of all cores tested, the presence or lack of heavy mineral grains being the depending factor. The most important developments have been, first, the elimination of human errors by making the recording apparatus entirely automatic and foolproof; second, the introduction of automatic and combined forward and reverse runs on cores, which enables the operator to distinguish definitely between polarized mineral grains and material with susceptibility only.

ABSTRACTProcessing oxide-based ceramics using microwave heating leads to a number of unexpected results, which can only be interpreted in terms of enhanced diffusion. Enhanced sintering has been observed in alumina and zirconia. Accelerated grain growth in dense, hot-pressed alumina has been demonstrated. Increased diffusion coefficients have been observed for diffusion of oxygen in sapphire. As yet, a satisfactory theory to account for these phenomena has not been developed. This paper reviews the experimental work conducted at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory during the past four years on the processing of oxides in both 2.45 and 28 GHz microwave furnaces.
