It provides tremendous opportunities for an entrepreneur to start a new creation. It helps to change the life of an entrepreneurs into a new direction. For changing the life of an entrepreneur, motivation is very essential, because without motivation no one can choose entrepreneurships as a profession.

So it is very much important to motivate a person to understand his or her inner qualities to start a new profession for economic development. This study was conducted in the state of Assam. The nature of the study was both Exploratory and Descriptive. For selecting the representative sample for the study, simple random sampling method was adopted for selection of the districts. CRD analysis highlights the significance difference among all aspects of empowerment.

Abstract Main focus of this paper is the issue of notional variability of the term “archaism” which occurs in historical-linguistic and dialectological works with a common denominator - dialects. The basis of the registered notional variability (1. Linguistic phenomenon which carries over from an earlier linguistic period - residual archaism; 2. Dialectal phenomenon which represents older state of language - relict archaism 3. Dialectal phenomenon which is currently receding - synchronic, structural archaism) lies in differences resulting from diachronic (the age of the linguistic phenomenon, diachronic resultativity, residuality/relictness) and synchronic (obsolescence of the linguistic phenomenon, synchronic processuality) approach to the language and its dynamics. The variability of the term archaism according to the approach used (the aspect of the national language, its development vs. the aspect of dialectal system and its structure) is illustrated on the example of linguistic phenomena characteristic for Sotak dialects of the north-eastern Zemplín. During the process of selection of examples from Sotak dialects the fact that the structure of this dialectal system includes, in a concentrated form, linguistic phenomena reflecting an older developmental state of the Slovak language (archaisms from the point of view of national language and its development) was taken into consideration.

Background: The study on Canine Parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) infection was carried out in South Eastern Nigeria using Immunochromatographic (IC) test. Methods: Three states namely Enugu, Abia and Anambra were randomly selected for the study, using simple random sampling method. Six major Veterinary clinics and six kennels (two per state) were also selected by purposive sampling method. The risk factors considered in this study were; age, breed, sex, vaccination status and location. A total of 300 dogs were sampled using purposive sampling method, to select suspected cases of CPV-2 (diarrhoeic) and exposed dogs. Results: The survey showed overall prevalence of 37.3% among the dogs studied in the area. There was no association between the occurrence of CPV-2 and location, sex and vaccination status. According to location the prevalence, was 43%, 38% and 31% in Enugu, Abia and Anambra states, respectively (p>0.05). Sex-related prevalence was 38.0% and 36.6% for male and female, respectively (p>0.05). According to vaccination status, the prevalence was, 36.8%, 34.0%, and 48.7% for vaccinated, unvaccinated and incomplete vaccinated dogs, respectively (p>0.05). The result of the survey showed association (p<0.05) with the occurrence of CPV-2 and age, breed and mortality rates. According to age, the prevalence was, 42.9%, 30.6%, and 17.0% for 0-6 months, 7-12 months and one year and above, respectively (p<0.05). Breed-related prevalence showed Rottweiler (63.4%), Pit bull (50.0%), Toy breeds (50.0%), Great dane (40.0%), Bull mastiff (39.4%), Alsatian (36.0%), Boerboel (36.0%), Caucasian (35.8%) and Mongrel (11.1%) respectively, (p<0.05). Case mortality rate of 72% was also recorded. Conclusions: This study showed, that canine parvovirus is endemic in study area and most prevalent in dogs less than six months of age.

Using data from an enumerated network of worldwide flight connections between airports, we examine how sampling designs and sample size influence network metrics. Specifically, we apply three types of sampling designs: simple random sampling, nonrandom strategic sampling (i.e., selection of the largest airports), and a variation of snowball sampling. For the latter sampling method, we design what we refer to as a controlled snowball sampling design, which selects nodes in a manner analogous to a respondent-driven sampling design. For each design, we evaluate five commonly used measures of network structure and examine the percentage of total air traffic accounted for by each design. The empirical application shows that (1) the random and controlled snowball sampling designs give rise to more efficient estimates of the true underlying structure, and (2) the strategic sampling method can account for a greater proportion of the total number of passenger movements occurring in the network.

The study was intended to find out whether the Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) was a better alternative to the manual system in the process of selection of qualified students in the Senior High Schools (SHSs) in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. A sample size of 306 was selected from a population of 994. Stratified and simple random sampling procedures were employed to select the subjects in the study sample. Respondents to the questionnaire and interview were randomly selected. A pilot study was conducted in the Eastern Region to test the validity and reliably of the instrument. The Cronbach alpha coefficient reliability at 0.7 was recorded. The data generated was processed and converted into percentages to facilitate the analysis and discussion processes. The results indicated that the introduction of the CSSPS did not significantly increase enrolment in the least endowed schools; neither did it minimize the preference for endowed schools. However, the CSSPS significantly minimized the human errors that characterized the manual system and accelerated the rate of selection and placement process. The major challenge to the CSSPS was the human factor in terms of refusal of parents and students to accept placement into other schools apart from their chosen endowed schools. It is recommended that the CSSPS should be used in combination with other placement systems such as the Random Placement Systems to achieve a mixed talent distribution of students across the schools in the study area.

Abstract The local community has managed peatlands for a long time with various commodities and levels of management. The success of farming in peatland requires the seriousness of farmers and proper land management to produce peatland’s high productivity and sustainability, including farmer’s competence. The research aims to analyze farmers’ competence in peatland farming and identify factors that influence farmers’ competence in peatland management. The research was conducted from August to October 2017 in Rasau Jaya Dua Village, Kubu Raya District, West Kalimantan. The selection of 48 respondents was made by a simple random sampling method. Primary data, including characteristics of respondents and farmer’s competence in peatland management, were collected through interviews using questionnaires and field observations. Data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using the correlation test of Rank Spearman. The results showed that the farmers’ competence level in peatland farming in Rasau Jaya Dua Village was moderate. Factors that must be considered to develop the farming competence in peatland are age, motivation, and interaction with extension workers. Increasing the farming competence of farmers in peatland management can be achieved through improving the interaction between farmers and extension workers.
