This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Unfortunately, among the Albanian literature, there are still unexplored writers and the literature of the author Teodor Keko, on Albanian letters, is found on the peripheral researches. This is quite odd if you remind yourself that his writing for as long as he lived, but after his death also, were promptly sold on libraries and the author himself was popular among writers and critics. This gets even stranger if you notice the large number of the studies, articles, papers for the same writers. This book is a second effort to change this writing situation, a getaway from the vicious circle of the impeachment by other already popular writers and to study values over the writers who have been left aside and underestimated from the critics. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study explores managerial insider trading as a function of differences between managers and the market s assessment of company earning components specifically operating cash flows and accruals. It builds a perspective of managers as sophisticated investors who, while engaging in earnings management, ultimately make insider trading decisions based on the divergence between their private valuation of earnings components and the market s. The study applies the methodological framework of the Mishkin (1983) test. It finds supporting evidence that insider buying behavior is consistent with the predictions of managerial insider trading based on a contemporaneous market valuation divergence of both operating cash flows and accruals. Although insider selling is not indicative about a contemporaneous market overvaluation, the findings by examining and comparing the market valuation divergence in the period of insider selling and in the following period, suggest that insiders do time their sales in the period of higher excess returns. 104 pp. Englisch.

Shasha's literal and figurative qualities of his contribution as a nation builder in a country that is characterized by diversity, are evaluated thoroughly. The book dwells on the figurative language utilized by Shasha in arming the nation, preparing it for the future and subsequently, identifying him as a patriot who addresses political, social and economic challenges in South Africa prior liberation. Shasha also uses his imbongi (Praise poet) authority to criticize a social situation that puts the African people at a disadvantage. In his poems he values the African tradition, that spirit of Ubuntu (humanity), and at the same time, he criticizes the Western culture as it undermines the African culture in an attempt to achieve reconciliation between the two cultures. In the final analysis the study of the value of poetic devices in Shasha's books explains that words can be used as a powerful weapon to build one nation. 148 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Physical therapists often encounter ethical conflict. Entry-level physical therapist education programs in the United States are required to include ethics as content. Literature provides examples of several ethical decision making models but lacks evidence that links theoretical models with the actual decision making process utilized by practicing physical therapists. Additionally, the ethical approach (utilitarianism, duty-oriented, ethics of care) employed in the decision making process has not been linked with practice. This book addresses a qualitative research project into the ethical decision making process used by practicing physical therapists and presents an emergent model of ethical decision making which forms a bridge between theory and practice. 136 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the context of systems development life cycles (SDLC), a gap exists between the representations of the methodologies as processes on the one hand, for example using business process model and notation (BPMN), and the formalisms that would provide the level of analysability necessary to validate the corresponding processes on the other hand, for instance Petri nets. This doctoral thesis aims at bridging this gap by proposing a model in-between these two extremes that is simple yet expressive enough to be able to represent the processes, either directly or by translating BPMN diagrams to the model, while retaining enough formalism to allow its mapping to Petri nets, which then enables the execution of the diagrams but also opens the door to automatic or semi-automatic validation of some properties of the systems using well-known algorithms in graph theory or methods that are specific to Petri nets. 148 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The development of synthetic receptor for cation and anion recognition have attracted considerable attention in recent years within the field of supramolecular chemistry due to the fact that a large number of biological processes involve molecular recognition.The leading issue in the design of any active chemosensor is the connotation of a selective molecular recognition event with a physical signal highly sensitive to its occurrence. Fluorescence technique is commonly considered superior than other electrochemical techniques because of its low detection limits for trace chemical detection, selectivity, response time and in situ monitoring ability. Fluorescent chemosensors capable of selectively recognizing cations have potential analytical applications in many different fields, including chemistry, biology, and medicine. Calix[4]arene based chemosensors have enthralled a great deal of contemplation due to their capacity to visually sense analytes with high sensitivity as well as fast response time. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The heterocycles are of immense importance not only both biologically and industrially but to the functioning of any developed human society as well. Their participation in a wide range of areas cannot be underestimated. The majority of pharmaceutical products that mimic natural products with biological activity are heterocycles. Most of the significant advances against disease have been made by designing and testing new structures, which are often hetero aromatic derivatives. In addition, a number of pesticides, antibiotics, alkaloids, and cardiac glycosides are heterocyclic natural products of significance for human and animal health. Therefore, researchers are on a continuous pursuit to design and produce better pharmaceuticals, pesticides, insecticides, rodenticides, and weed killers. A significant part of such biologically active compounds is composed of heterocycles. These compounds play a major part in biochemical processes and the side groups of the most typical and essential constituents of living cells. Organic chemists have been engaged in extensive efforts to produce these heterocyclic compounds by developing new and efficient synthetic transformations. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers analysis was done to determine the allelic diversity and relationship among 23 rice varieties developed by Dr, B. S. K. K. V. Dapoli. A total of 35 SSR primer pairs were polymorphic and generated 184 alleles with an average of 5.26 alleles per primer pair. The number of alleles amplified for each primer pair ranged from 2 to 8. The polymorphic information content (PIC) values of each primer pair ranged from 0.23 to 0.78 with an average of 0.58. The UPGMA grouped 23 rice varieties into two main clusters which were further divided into two sub-clusters. The first major cluster consists of seven released rice varieties and 16 varieties form second major cluster. Most of the closely related cultivars were identified with the fingerprinting based on the polymorphic SSR primer pairs. The results could be useful for resolving the problem that arises in seed certification programme as well as the determination of genetic diversity of the rice varieties very quickly. Similarly it will protect the varieties from commercial exploitation by others because of its uniqueness in amplification pattern. 80 pp. Englisch.

Web search engines are formed with the reason to search information from the World Wide Web (WWW). This work proposes a new approach to rank web pages for search engines. This new method is an alternative to PageRank algorithm. It starts off by discussing in brief about the algorithm of PageRank, the mathematical background of PageRank and its role to rank web pages. Next, the book introduces a new method and formula to find the probability that can be used to rank web pages efficiently. The derivation of formula and how it is found is explained in details. The proposed methodology shows how it is not only dependent on backward link while ranking webpages. It also considers other entities of a webpage to rank a webpage. The data and results for this research are presented to prove how the new probability formula derived is efficient to overcome the backward overloading problem of PageRank. 72 pp. Englisch.

Nepal has embraced human development as an overarching goal, thus defining people, all the country's citizens, as both the means and end of development efforts. Although the country has made significant strides in education, health and other social services, particularly within the last decade, the level of human development in Nepal remains among the lowest in the World. This stems basically from inequity and inequality in the distribution of resources and opportunities that has resulted in the persistence of poverty. Women comprise 50.1 % of the total population of Nepal in 2001. Given traditional gender divisions of labor, women concentrate more on their ascribed reproductive roles and responsibilities while men focus on 'productive', income earning roles. Women are confined to 'culturally prescribed' and 'socially accepted' works. The activities undertaken by women are influenced by factors such as household composition i.e. extended/ joint, nuclear and female headed families, household stratification by economic status - wealthy, poor or landless - education, knowledge and health status.

Since the raison d être of the WTO is to reduce (and if possible eliminate) barriers to free flow of trade, the existence of anti-dumping laws in GATT/WTO alongside trade liberalisation provisions have continued to generate considerable controversy. This work appraises the conceptual foundation of US anti-dumping law and its influence on GATT/WTO anti-dumping practice. It also examines the circumstances surrounding the inclusion of Article 17 in the Anti-dumping Agreement as a special US contribution to WTO anti-dumping practice. Ultimately, this inquiry identifies that the US maintains a crucial position in shaping outcomes in anti-dumping disciplines in the WTO. It makes the case that such role can only be appropriately undertaken by the US itself readjusting its guiding paradigm on anti-dumping practice. 88 pp. Englisch.

Some of the claw disorders are not initially noticeable because they do not cause immediate lameness. Nevertheless, they may gradually cause irreversible changes on claw health, which ultimately lead to low productivity and culling of the dairy cow. The claw disorders are comprehensively described and illustrated with pictures. Some of the key features in the book include: Prevalence of claw disorders and risk factors Use of statistical analyses to describe relationships between various claw disorders and their association with specific risk factors existing in the smallholder zero-grazing units. Radiographic and histologic changes in some of the claw disorders. Prognostic indicators for the specific claw disorders and the value of claw trimming for each. Reading the book will give insights on how to make early diagnosis of subtle claw disorders for early remedy and will also give ideas on gaps for further research in dairy cows within smallholder zero-grazing production systems. 232 pp. Englisch.

It aggravates in evening and at night. Therefore, RLS provides poorer sleep and can affect quality of life through fatigue, family life and social activities, work, and co-morbidity. It is demonstrated a dysfunction of the dopaminergic system in the brain with low levels of dopamine and / or less sensitive dopamine receptors. RLS is more common in women and the prevalence increases with age and during pregnancy. Depression is common during and after pregnancy. It is not known whether women with RLS during pregnancy have a higher risk of peri- or postnatal depression.The aims of this thesis was to to examine prevalence, associated symptoms and comorbidities, in particular, vasomotor symptoms, menopause, and HRT use, among women who suffer from RLS. In summary, data included in this thesis shows that RLS are more common in women with estrogendeficiency-related symptoms of menopause. Data also shows that womenwith RLS during pregnancy are at increased risk for depression during and after pregnancy. 152 pp. Englisch.

Starting with the simplest parts of the frame as slabs, beams and columns with all its loading conditions, then designing plane frames and ending with the space frames under axial, flexural, shear and torsional loads. This is done by developing a computer programs (using MATLAB) with database to find the optimum sections in applicable dimensions, taking into consideration limiting the design results with the design constraints as much as possible. Checking the designed section capacities were carried out through a linear and non - linear reanalysis procedure to find out whether the optimum designed sections are capable of resisting the applied loads or not. Also, a parametric study was carried out through many examples to find out the factors affecting the optimum designed sections, such as concrete compressive strength, yield stress of steel and price ratio (steel price/concrete price). 216 pp. Englisch.

After discussing the emergence of the most important Palestinian parties, their thoughts and development, the researcher moved to identify the most important elements of the internal and external environments, where the impact of media, civil society, clans, the Israeli occupation and the foreign interference on the Palestinian party system were examined. 252 pp. Englisch.

The development process began with a review of VM history and related literature. Then, VM approaches used in different countries were reviewed, compared and contrasted. Afterwards, project management and procurement systems were discussed to investigate ways of utilising VM interventions to keep the project value chain intact and to align and realign the client value system throughout life cycle of the project. Next, a VM approach that covers the institutional, organisational and project levels was developed. Subsequently, a change management plan was developed for organisations to embrace the proposed VM approach. Finally, the theoretical basis for VM approaches was investigated and the new VM approach was positioned within this theoretical context. 236 pp. Englisch.

The emphasis on the debate on the Post-Colonial Society especially in the Pakistani context serves not only the ground from which a fair and just discourse on civil society be built but also opens a room for a better understanding of politics of the governed combined with a call and a need for religious tolerance along with the recognition of minorities and multiple ethnic identities in Pakistan. The normative and empirical discourses are highlighted within the milieu of the contemporary political culture which attempts to challenge the top-down modelling by the bottom-up theoretical understanding on the Post-Colonial Society in Pakistan. 256 pp. Englisch.

Anochie and eke (2006) reported that one of the advantages of APD is adequacy of dialysis. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of APD in the management of acute renal failure (ARF) in Kenya. Design: A retrospective cohort study Setting:Setting: Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), Gertrude children s Hospital, Aga khan hospital Nairobi, Mater hospital and Nairobi west Hospital.Subjects: The study population was children and adults with ARF who were put on APD from may 2006 may 2010. Results: The mean Serum Creatinine, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Serum Potassium prior to APD was comparatively higher than the mean on APD discontinuation, discharge or death. The mean 24-hour urine output prior to APD was 100.8 and after APD discontinuation was 482.5 which were quite significant. The mortality rate was 37% (n=13) while survival rate was 63% (n=22) where patients were treated and discharged. 96 pp. Englisch.
