Abstract: The attack on WTC on 9/11 resulted in lot of casualties that brought almost the entire world against the perpetrators that is the Taliban and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Thus following the attacks the USA-led coalition forces invaded on Afghanistan and ousted the Taliban led government and pulled the Al-Qaeda out of the country. Thereby the Taliban disappeared from the scene and the USA installed its puppet regime in Afghanistan. But after passing of sometime the Taliban and other insurgent groups started its operations against USA and its allied powers. After the presence of a long decade the USA didn’t bring the socio-economic and political structure on the right track, though efforts have been made, rather uncertainty prevailed throughout the last decade. Now, the main focus of this study will be based on the USA’s withdrawal due to a number of reasons. Similarly, the withdrawal impact on socio-economic and politics in Afghanistan will be uncertain because allocation of funds will be reduced and internally various security factions will be at loggerheads with one another for power. Thus in order to patch up all these kinds of different problems there will be a need of such sort of government that will suit the Afghan people.

<p justify;\\"="" style="text-align: justify;"> Abstract: In the present study an attempt was made to see the significant changes exist if any in the feeling of being alienated by the worker who practices meditation and the worker who do not practice daily meditation. Marx's theory is founded upon his observation that, within the capitalist mode of production, workers invariably lose determination of their lives and destinies by being deprived of the right to conceive of themselves as the director of their actions. Workers are alienated by the bourgeoisie, who own the means of production. An example of the alienation of the worker from the work he produces is the worker who attaches tires onto a car in an auto manufacturing plant. Although the worker has created a part of the car, he is alienated from his labor by the fact that the auto company will sell the car and reap the profits, rather than allow him to keep some of the profits for himself. The present study aims at understanding the level of work alienation of non-meditators and meditators. The study aims to find out the level of difference that exists between non-meditators and meditators work alienation. Samples of 100 people working at different work set-up were selected randomly from Hubli and Dharwad cities of Karnataka state. Work Alienation Scale of Pal and Ramyashilpa were used to study the level of work alienation of non-meditators and meditators. The results reveled that non-meditators differed in the level of alienation when compared with meditators.The obtained‘t’ value was 8.27which is highly significant at 0.001 level of significance. Hence it shows that Non-meditators experienced high level of work alienation than meditators.

By utilizing SPSS, twenty six financial ratios associated with 14 banks were being thoroughly checked by means of enter, forward and backward options inside the search of best variables to distinguish between Islamic and also conventional banks. Our main findings are that Islamic banking banks are better in profits comes to operating income and the diminution in the value of underlying tangible assets arising from loss, damage or non-maintenance of the asset presents another kind of risk that is not of any concern to traditional bond holders. Sharing of losses adversely affect the incentives of both the issuer and the investor making the Islamic debt non-competitive in international or domestic market.

Abstract: Christians believe God the Son is begotten of God the Father pre - eternally but is born "in time" of Holy Mary. Theotokos thus refers to the Incarnation, when the Second Person of the Holy Trinity took on human nature in addition to his pre-existing divine nature, this being made possible through the cooperation of Holy Virgin Mary. Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully human, so His mother should be called and She is Theotokos. This Virgin Mother of God is called "Theotokos" [God-bearer] not only by the Ecumenical Synods, but countless God-bearing Fathers, who indeed anathematize those who refuse to attribute this title to her.

Abstract:This paper examines how the concept of civil society relates to the porn/sex industry as well as to individual internet users who actively participate in e-moves aiming at exchanging pornography content and information/views on commercial sex. By describing the porn portal bourdela.com, and presenting evidence from a conducted discourse analysis on the reviews/evaluations which the commentators post, there will be an effort to apply the concept of pornification to the everyday use of on-line communities. Hence, it will be suggested that this leads to the formation of a certain kind of civil society which one can call ‘porn society’.
