Abstract: Since globalization has been visibly taking its shape in Southeast Asian countries over the years, the Philippines have been attracting foreign students to enroll in their English as Second Language (ESL) programs. By using the Input-Process-Output model, the researcher used Karatas and Fer’s questionnaire to evaluate the English curriculum of Bulacan State University. The Area IV and Area XIII of Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines’ (AACCUP) survey instrument were also used to determine the adequacy of the physical plants and the University’s support for the students. The assessment and analysis of gathered data were done through tabulating the frequency, percentage, and mean using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The results showed that the ESL curriculum was very satisfactory in harnessing the English communication skills of the foreign students. It also revealed that BulSU has provided adequate administrative support and facilities relating to their needs.

Abstract: The philosophy of individualism aims at the non-interference of the state in controlling the activities of the individuals. It regards that the happiness and progress of mankind can be achieved only if the people are left to manage their affairs by themselves without any restriction. It grants perfect liberty to individuals. The doctrine implies that the governments by their restraints or services can hardly make any contribution to the welfare of the individuals and, on the other hand, tend to destroy it if they extend their activity beyond the limits of maintaining law and order in the society. The real function of the state is to train and improve the individuals in such a way that they should not feel any necessity for the existence of state. The greatest service that the state can do to mankind is to make itself superfluous. 

Keywords:  individuals, state, government, society, liberty, necessary evil.

Abstract: Routing Protocols have been proposed to enable the network to identify and suggest various routes to number of demanded flows.  In the Flow-Aware Network Models, the routes are identified and selected with the help of Flow Tables or Flow Identifiers that proposed by Flow Aggregation Mechanism.  That is, users can define a Flow Aggregation Model to suggest routes depend on their defined-demanded flows and this model effectively handles many flows which helps core routers to profit aggregate routing.  This is considered as an efficient and effective approach to identify a best route to achieve required performance.  However, from our earlier research works, it was observed from the literature survey that that the existing models unable to i. detect and manage bulk flow, ii. Control Traffic Loss and iii.  Maintain Deviation of Links Load against Traffic Load.  To address the above mentioned issues, this research work was proposed an efficient Flow-Aware based Load Adaptive Routing(FA-LAR) and established better performance in terms of Queueing Delay, Throughput, Power Consumption (Energy Dissipation), and Load Deviation.  Further to improve the performance of Optical Networks in terms of Spectrum and Resource Utilization, this research work proposed an Efficient Flow Aware based Distance Adaptive Routing Scheme(FA-DAR).  The proposed model was implemented with the Network simulator QualNet 7.4.   From the experimental results, it is noticed that the prosed Model, FA-DAR is performing well in terms of Throughput, Queueing Delay, Load Deviation, Spectrum Consumption and Resource Utilization.

Abstract: Growing environmental concerns and extinction of fossil fuels have shifted the focus on renewable energy resources. Among these alternatives, solar Photovoltaic (PV) energy has been looked upon as the most viable resource and hence it has resulted in proliferation of PV systems integrated to the grid. In addition to all the cherished benefits of PV power as a renewable source, large scale grid connection has led to unprecedented challenges that are being faced by utilities. One of the most serious issues with greater percentage of PV generation is that as these do not participate in grid frequency or voltage regulation, even a small perturbation in frequency or voltage may result in a disaster leading to total blackout. A novel control algorithm has been proposed in this work which offers the advantages of inertia & damping and enables the inverter to regulate the voltage and frequency. Simulated results are obtained in MATLAB/Simulink platform that shows the inverter capability to respond effectively for the grid side fluctuations.

Abstract: The Uzi fly, Exorista sorbillans (Wiedemann) is a major pest of the mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mori L. in Andhra Pradesh leading to great cocoon crop loss. It is considered that acquisition of knowledge on the infestation of uzi fly on silkworm in Rayalaseema districts of Andhra Pradesh form an important basic input for drawing silkworm cocoon crop protection strategies. Keeping the above in view, a survey was conducted to know the infestation levels of uzi fly on mulberry silkworm in three important sericulture practicing districts of Rayalaseema i.e., Anantapur, Chittoor and Kurnool of Andhra Pradesh, India during three seasons (summer, rainy and winter). Results revealed that the infestation of uzi fly on commercial mulberry silkworm cocoon crop was high during rainy season (14.73 ± 5.27%) followed by that during winter (8.62 ± 4.16%) and summer (4.77 ± 4.68%). Identical trends in uzi infestation among three sericultural districts (Anantapur, Chittoor and Kurnool) were observed during three seasons studied (summer, rainy and winter). Average uzi incidence was high in Anantapur District (10.01 ± 4.56%) followed by that in Chittoor District (5.84 ± 2.20%) and Kurnool District (4.77 ± 4.68%). Average uzi fly incidence on the commercial silkworm cocoon was 9.37 ± 4.23%. Differences in uzi fly infestations among three districts surveyed and average incidence are statistically highly significant at 1% level (p< 0.01).

Abstract: Eastern Uganda in East Africa is one of the most flood-prone regions of Uganda. The area for this study is situated in a lake basin ecosystem which is surrounded by highland locations and fed my three rivers. Despite being highly prone to flooding, the basin is home to over half a million small scale farmers who derive their livelihoods from this ecosystem. Land fertility in the basin area is one of the push-factors for the continued habitation of the watershed. Consequently, past attempts by the Government to relocate communities from this area have been resisted. There is however a paucity of knowledge on how communities reduce flood disaster risk and mitigate flood disaster effects in this fragile ecosystem. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the communities’ capacities, not just to survive but to thrive in the flood-prone watersheds through sustainably balancing land use, environmental conservation and disaster risk reduction. The study indicates that whereas the communities have proactively put in place some measures, these efforts are too localized and too rudimentary to significantly reduce their risk to flood disasters. Strengthening the communities’ endogenous action for flood disaster risk reduction is therefore an imperative. A combination of endogenous community action and exogenous support would particularly enable the communities at risk of flood disasters not just to survive but to thrive in the flood-prone watersheds through balancing production and environmental conservation.

Abstract: Bauxite is a rock consisting mainly of aluminum hydroxide minerals; it is the principal source of alumina (A1₂O₃) from which aluminum metal is smelted by electrolytic process.  Bauxite occurs in Kolli hill along the Eastern Ghat range of Tamil Nadu, Which essentially consists of the charnockite and the associated rocks of the Achaean age. It is formed due to residual weathering and lateritization of Archean charnockites.  In the Study area Bauxite is soft, whitish red to brown aluminum ore mineral mainly consist of hydrous aluminum oxides and aluminum hydroxides and laterites are mostly found in humid tropic climatic condition due to intense weathering of Host rock.  Most authors agree that bauxite forms by weathering under conditions favorable for the retention of alumina and the leaching of other constituents from the host rock. From the above literature review aim of the present work is to study occurrence of bauxite in Kolli hills in Namakal District of Tamil Nadu.  Objectives are to study ore petrography of Bauxite and XRF study to get weight percentage of oxide ores.  In the field observation a sharp contact between brownish red laterite at the top followed by pinkish white Gibbsite as Bauxite ore at the bottom further underlined by lithiomorphs as basement weathering.  From  Petrographic study, it is possible to identify the constitute of Gibbsite occurrence with pale brown colour with weak pleochroism and moderate relief as main Aluminous ore mineral and Goethite with opaque lusture, whitish blue colour with  imperfect cleavage and ubiquitous due to residual weathering of above aluminous ore from Charnockite basement.  Microscopic study also shows the brownish yellow colour, Oolitic structure and weak pleochroism for Diaspore ore. Deep brown colour and opaque luster without any structure can be identified as pisolitic Cliachite. It is characterized by  very high Fe₂O₃­ constitute of 83% by weight, low Al₂O₃ of 14 % & 0.36 % of TiO₂ portrays it as Iron rich laterite at Selurnadu (Table.1, Fig.7).  It is also characterized by medium Al₂O₃ of 39.67 weight %, medium high Fe₂O₃ concentration of 55.32 % & 1.61 % of TiO₂ by weight conveys it as a medium grade bauxite at Thinanur.  Low Al₂O₃ weight % of 25.73, high Fe₂O₃ concentration of 71.58 % & 0.23 % of TiO₂ by weight indicate it as medium low grade bauxite (aluminous laterite) at Ariyurnadu.  Above geochemistry reveals the site specific ore percentage of Bauxite within study area kolli malai.

Abstract: The financial protection of citizens against medical menaces was thus different in the period before the Second World War from the period following it. Most of the health insurance policies were introduced in developed countries much earlier than in developing countries due to the obvious advantages. The oldest national health insurance was in Germany when Otto von Bismarck passed the historic social legislations of Health Insurance Bill in 1883, Capital Accident Insurance in 1884 and the Old Age Disability Insurance Bill in 1889. After that Germany travelled a long way. Britain formulated the National Insurance Act in 1911 that covered most employed persons and their financial dependents. Most other countries of the world adapted healthcare reforms after the Second World War as they signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. The studies on the health insurance systems in developed countries focusing on the system of universal health insurance coverage in particular, revealed various changes in its form and functioning over time and across regions.  There was thus a need to review the health insurance policies in the developing countries as that might have a significant contribution to the design of policies in countries like India. . In Mexico a law was passed in April 2003 to implement the System for Social Protection from Jan 1st 2004. Costa Rica had the first social insurance started in 1941 for urban low-wage workers. In Latin American countries, however, there was a dominant presence of private health insurance. In Vietnam, the new Social Health Insurance regulation came into effect on July 1st, 2005. Another popular health insurance programme run by a developing economy was the PhilHealth programme in the Philippines that covered almost 63% of the population. The system of financing of the UCS in Thailand was new.  In China, the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NRCMS) was launched in the Eleventh Five Year Plan (2006-2010). The case of Indonesia could be highlighted due to its important health insurance program namely, the Jamkesmas. In India, the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) and the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) were two significant initiatives under implementation in the rural areas.
