    The level of stress is an important factor that may have impact on the employees’ behavior. Undesirable level of stress affects overall performance of the organization. In order to getting the work done effectively, organization or manager should properly manage the level of stress. For my research, one of the most important factor the “stress” is taken and to know how they affect on the employees performance. In order to conduct this study effectively, District Secretariat Jaffna was selected. In this research, the main problem is that whether employee’ stress affects their work performance. In order to analyse this problem, data was collected form the employees of District Secretarial Jaffna by questionnaire, records and observation. The gathered data was analyzed based on the statistical tools such as correlation analysis, regression analysis, F test and T test. In my research, three factors were viewed that determine the stress level of employees such as, job related factors, organizational factors and individual factors. According to the analyzed data, it was proved that there is negative relationship between employees’ stress and their performance. That is when employees’ stress level increase their work performance will decrease and vive- verse. Hypotheses were tested by correlation-regression analysis F test and T test. According to the testing of hypotheses, hypothesis (H2) has been accepted.. That is, employees’ stress has an impact in their performance. At the same time, hypothesis (H1) also has been accepted in my research based on the percentage analysis. That is high level of stress exist among employees in District Secretariat Jaffna. Most of the employees experience low level stress. It is also a problem, because at the low level stress, performances of the employees are also low level. It has been proved in the data analysis. Therefore stress level of employees should be managed at optimum level. The optimum level of stress will lead to high level of performance. Keywords- Individual factors, Job related factors, Organizational factors, Performance and Stres

    Each year new research is published that explores various factors of leadership. New teaching aids and devices appear which are designed to improve one’s leadership abilities. All of this activity should indicate that today’s practicing manager knows a great deal about the leadership process; however this is not tour. Many managers appear to experience difficulty performing effectively in leadership roles. As the above quote states, leadership is and must be a concern of society and organizations In this connection, a research question is formulated that whether leadership style of principals and Teacher’s Behavior in Kilinochchi zone Schools.For this study Kilinochchi zone schools was selected and one hundred and twenty eight teachers out of five hundred and eleven employees were also selected as sample. Then data were collected from selected sample. With the help of these collected data, data presentation and data analysis were made to test (a) the relationship between people oriented leadership style of principals and teacher’s behavior (b) the relationship between task oriented leadership style of principals and teacher’s behavior. Teacher’s behavior explains teacher’s satisfaction performance and absenteeism.Analysis showed, a positive correlation between people oriented leadership style of principals and teacher’s satisfaction, performance and absenteeism.  Negative correlation between task oriented leadership style of principals and teacher’s satisfaction performance and absenteeism F test proved that there is a relationship between three variables. This result is true with 95%. Then the formulated hypotheses were accepted at 5% significance level. Keywords:- people oriented leadership style, task oriented leadership style, teacher’s satisfaction performance and absenteeism

    A REVIEW ON POTENTIAL USES OF CULINARY VEGETABLES USED IN ROUTINE LIFE AS AN ANTICANCER AGENT

    Cancer is a disease which leads to death, and chemotherapy is a treatment used to treat cancer. Lung cancer and breast cancer are most effective one in the world. The present study examines the anticancer property of culinary vegetables such as Allium vegetables, cruciferous vegetables, and beetroot which are used in day-to-day life have anticancer properties. Allicin and gallic acid in garlic decreases the risk of colon, pancreas, stomach, esophagus, and breast cancers. In onion, cysteine sulfoxide is sulfur compounds which have ant-cancer, antiplatelet, and antithrombotic property. In broccoli, glucosinolates and sulfur compounds play a major role in the treatment of breast and prostate cancer. Betacyanin is a compound present in beetroot which has antioxidant property and anticancer activity

    Synthesis and characterization of zinc doped beryllium oxide: Ethylene glycol nanofluids

    The current study used ultrasound-assisted chemical precipitation to create zinc doped beryllium oxide (BeO) nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the synthesized samples. The effect of sonication on the size of zinc-doped BeO nanoparticles is discussed. The presence of zinc-doped BeO nanoparticles with an average crystallite size of 17.89 nm was established by X-ray diffraction. The FTIR peaks at 434.97 cm-1 and 1,110.08 cm-1 confirm Zn and Be in them. Sonication was used to disperse the nanoparticles in ethylene glycol, resulting in a nanofluid. The nanofluids were prepared in six concentrations from 0.0005 to 0.0030 wt% and characterized by ultrasound velocity and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy as well as photoluminescence. Ultrasonic studies and FTIR analysis confirmed the absence of particle-fluid interactions. The maximum intensity was at 510 nm wavelength in the photoluminescence spectra, giving the electron transition energy. Thermal conductivity and viscosity revealed an optimum concentration at 0.0025 wt% zinc-doped BeO in ethylene glycol nanofluid, for maximal heat transfer with the highest thermal conductivity of 0.265 W/mK

    Complete Ranking of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers

    AbstractFuzzy number was introduced by Dubois and Prade [10] to handle imprecise numerical quantities. Later it was generalized to intuitionistic fuzzy number by Burillo et al. [5]. Ranking intuitionistic fuzzy numbers plays an important role in decision making and information systems. All over the world many researchers have proposed different score functions for ranking intuitionistic fuzzy numbers but unfortunately every method produces some anti-intuitive results in certain places. A complete ranking on the entire class of fuzzy numbers have been achieved by W. Wang, Z. Wang [22] using upper dense sequence defined in (0,1]. But a complete ranking on the set of all intuitionistic fuzzy number remains an open problem till today. Complete ranking on the class of intuitionistic fuzzy interval number was done by Geetha et al. [13]. In this paper, total ordering on the entire class of intuitionistic fuzzy number (IFN) using upper lower dense sequence is proposed and compared with existing techniques using illustrative examples. This new total ordering on intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs) generalizes the total ordering defined in W. Wang, Z. Wang [22] for fuzzy numbers (FNs)
