Moringa oleifera Lam. (Family Moringaceae) is well – known for its various medicinal properties. It grows wild in the tropical and subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and the Middle East. In Nigeria, Moringa oleifera trees are planted at a large scale especially in the northern part of the country. It has been widely used in the treatment of certain diseases as a traditional medicinal herb. Antimicrobial activity is the most studied property of Moringa oleifera. Many studies have shown that nearly all types of Moringa oleifera tissues exhibit antimicrobial activity including antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anti parasitic property. This review describes progress on research conducted to understand the antimicrobial activity of Moringa oleifera and discusses the potential use of Moringa oleifera in the control of pathogenic microbes. Key words: Antimicrobial activity; Moringa oleifera; pathogenic microbes, control.

‘Risk' is a major point of focus in the literature on resettlement and reconstruction associated with the impacts of major infrastructure development on project affected individuals and families. Previous approaches to risk appear to emphasize the negative consequences of development, and it is no wonder then that project affected people often emphatically resist development and change. This paper proposes that a more pro-active, positive opportunities and benefits approach be taken in dealing with resettlement and reconstruction associated with large scale infrastructure projects. The discussion is focused on the eight ‘risk factors' (or ‘opportunity factors'?) listed in the well known ‘Impoverishment Risk and Reconstruction' (IRR) Model. Three more such factors are added to the list based on field experience in South Asia. The point is that by emphasizing the potential opportunities and benefits, project affected people are more likely to be supportive of projects that may disrupt their lives. Key words: Resettlement, opportunities, risk, IRR model, South Asia, infrastructure development  doi: 10.3126/hn.v3i0.1912 Hydro Nepal: Journal of Water, Energy and Environment Issue No. 3, January, 2008 Page 9-15

Objective evidences of geographical-political unbalance in Ukraine, which is clearly manifested in the electoral and political activity of the population and is the result primarily of historical and geographical differences and ethno-geographical regions of the state, are characterized. Twelve political and geographic areas with the characteristics of the party-political preferences and geopolitical consciousness are allocated on the basis of a comparative analysis of presidential elections in Ukraine. It is concluded that the regional mental-political differentiation does not have the character of intercivilizational contrasts. Objective historical and cultural base integrity are defined. Complications of regional-political situation in Ukraine at the beginning of the XXI century was not immanent conditioned and caused by subjective factors such as a lack of effective internal geopolitics during the 90s and targeted large-scale geopolitical pressure from Russia at the beginning of the XXI century. Key words: geography of elections in Ukraine, territorial-political unbalance in Ukraine, the historical-geographical background of Ukraine, ethnical-geographical situation in Ukraine, the internal geopolitics.

Despite several well-known limitations, mass spectrometry-based proteomics is still performing important role for post-genomic investigations. As large-scale proteomic investigation of whole organism or cell has been found more complex with available analytical tools, subcellular fractionation prior to mass spectrometry is becoming more useful approach now-a-days. In this review, an attempt has been made to summarize all such subcellular or organellar proteomic investigations performed to date with its implications for apicomplexan parasites. Key words: Subcellular proteomics, parasite, mass spectrometry, fractionation DOI = 10.3329/bjvm.v5i1.1301 Bangl. J. Vet. Med. (2007). 5 (1 & 2): 01- 07

Bombus terrestris L. appears to be a promising and cosmopolitan bumblebee species for pollination of greenhouse crops and its demand for large scale rearing. For effective crop pollination, colonies with optimal body sized workers are essential because generally larger bees visit more flowers per unit time. The body size is correlated with flexible development and growth in a changing environment. This study explored the effect of different photoperiodic regimes i.e., L0:D24, L8:D16, L16:D8 and L24:D0 in regulation of the body mass and size of bumblebee workers during the stages of larval, pupal and adult eclosion. The results showed that wet masses of larvae, pupae and adult ranged from 144.2 ± 7.6 to 198.7 ± 11.7, 398.3 ± 16.0 to 464.7 ± 9.3 and 224.8 ± 9.3 to 274.7 ± 7.0 mg, respectively whereas their dry masses were 47.7 ± 4.8 to 63.7 ± 5.4, 176.7 ± 6.7 to 204.7 ± 5.6 and 62.8 ± 3.0 to 78.7 ± 2.1 mg, respectively. The length of wing and tibae were observed 8.14 ± 0.82 to 8.47 ± 0.73 and 4.30 ± 0.51 to 4.47 ± 0.32 mm, respectively. The L0:D24 photoperiodic condition produced heavier larvae, pupae and adult workers with larger wings and tibiae and worker's body size and mass decreased significantly when the bees were reared under L16:D8 and L24:D0 conditions. Key words: Bumblebee; Body mass and size; Photoperiod DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjsir.v46i4.9589 BJSIR 2011; 46(4): 447-450

Masonry shear panels used as infilling in steel frames are investigated experimentally. Twenty-eight large-scale specimens were tested to ultimate panel strength under in-plane, horizontal loading applied at roof level. Of the parameters varied in the test series, interface conditions between panel edges and frame were found to significantly affect the strength and behaviour. Column-to-panel ties were found to be ineffective in increasing ultimate strength while initial stiffness was only marginally increased. A 20 mm gap between the upper edge of a panel and roof beam was particularly detrimental to the system shear capacity. While panel openings reduced initial major crack load, the same was not necessarily true for their effect on ultimate strength. Reinforced bond beams at one third and two thirds of the panel height forced initial major cracking to occur quite close to ultimate, which itself was only marginally increased. The lowest initial major cracking and ultimate loads were recorded for those specimens consisting of a panel in a hinge frame with a 20 mm gap between the upper edge of the panel and roof beam. Key words: masonry, infilled panel, steel frame, experimental, in-plane, behaviour, strength.

Tests were conducted on a 1.22 m (4 ft) diameter clarifier in which a flow contraction baffle had been installed. This baffle accelerated the flow towards the overflow weir at the outer diameter of the tank. Removal rates for suspended solids were improved by 18–20% by the use of flow contraction in comparison with a conventional clarifier of the same size. A partial flow contraction baffle gave similar results. Results suggest that the capacity of large-scale clarifiers might be extended by retrofitting them with flow contraction baffles. Key words: clarifier, flow contraction, internal waves.

In his Ruffin Lecture, Bowie attempts to offer a Kantian theory of capitalism, and this strikes me as a constructive and important thing to do. Bowie’s proposal contributes to a new direction in research that I believe is critical: offering alternative interpretations of capitalism, specifically, theories based in moral concepts which are designed to make room for normative inquiry. In contrast, much of the work in business ethics has focused on the application of moral principles or ideas to specific problems in business. These efforts work largely within the accepted meanings of “business” offered by economists, strategists and others, and then try to import moral concepts to identify and analyze various ethical problems. Several recent works in ethics suggest that this approach hasn’t addressed underlying assumptions about ethics and business which tend to make “ethical” approaches either directly conflicting with the logic of “business” (i.e., business ethics as “oxymoron”) or largely irrelevant to it (i.e., business ethics as vacuous). As such, the “problems” approach to doing ethics doesn’t address the substantial difficulties created by the conceptual terrain to which it was applied. Without more comprehensive and systematic attention to how researchers understand the conceptual underpinnings of capitalism, the contributions of such efforts will be limited and tenuous—that is, they will make projects which attempt to “apply” ethics onto business seem naive or implausible to people outside the community of business ethicists.

Kodagu is the smallest district of Karnataka. It is considered as the Switzerland of the East and Kashmir of India. The district is basically an Agro-based economy. It is the second largest producer of coffee of the country and now added with eco-tourism because of its scenic beauty. Kodagu doesnot have any large scale industries but only agro based and MSME sector. It is because of its topography and climatic conditions. One such micro sector was the “Grinding stone production of the Paloor Village of Madikeri Taluka of the district. The grinding stones of this village was very famous not only in the district but also in the nearby districts like Mangaluru, Mysuru and also Bengaluru. The production was gradually decreasing and since two years it has come to a standstill due to lack of demand. Not only the stone grinders but also some of other rural enterprises are in the verge of fading away. This paper makes an attempt to focus on the realities and to find some remedies to the problem. KEY WORDS: Rural Enterprise, MSME, Stone Grinders

<p>This study was conducted to assess the reproductive performance and achievements of AI in goat reared in lowland and highland areas. The study used a survey method in two rural areas with the highest goat population. For lowland areas selected Karangwuni village while highland areas was Sidomulyo village. The results showed that for the lowland areas vs. the highland for reproductive performance were as follows: age of first estrus (10 vs 9.3 bl), age of first mating (13.2 vs 12.5 bl),<br />mating system 100% natural, post partum mating (4.2 vs 4.6 months), S / C (1.5 vs. 1.6). Understanding of farmers about the pregnant female: anestrus post-AI (85.7 vs. 22.2%), stomach down (14.3 vs. 0.00), the condition of the udder (0.00 vs 77.8%). Achievement results of AI (37.5 vs. 40%). Based on the results of the study concluded that the reproductive performance of goat in lowland areas was generally very similar to the highland areas, thus the development of large-scale goats in the lowland areas is recommended.<br />Key words: natural mating, artificial insemination, PE goats, lowland, highland</p>
