La crisis económica mundial y la India: un análisis
La actual crisis económica mundial se manifiesta en diferentes formas y presenta muchos retos y también muchas oportunidades, si bien todavía es demasiado pronto para predecir resultados concretos. Sin embargo, cabe destacar que el sistema internacional y el concepto de poder como tal están protagonizando un cambio. Este hecho tiene importantes implicaciones para el mundo en vías de desarrollo. La crisis financiera tiene varias implicaciones geopolíticas para la India en particular.
Decir que la economía y la política están íntimamente relacionadas puede resultar un tópico pero, sin embargo, la actual crisis financiera mundial nos lleva reconsiderar esta afirmación. La crisis financiera que sufre el sistema internacional en la actualidad tendrá graves implicaciones geopolíticas: por ejemplo, ha supuesto la aparición de nuevos actores internacionales como la India y China. Sin embargo, queda por ver la medida en que un país como la India puede convertir los retos provocados por la crisis en oportunidades

TCAD Simulations and Small Signal Modeling of DMG AlGaN/GaN HFET
This article presents extraction of small signal model parameters and TCAD simulation of novel asymmetric field plated dual material gate AlGaN/GaN HFET first time. Small signal model is essential for design of LNA and microwave electronic circuit by using the proposed superior performance HFET structure. Superior performances of device are due to its dual material gate structure and field plate that can provide better electric field uniformity, suppression of short channel effects and improvement in carrier transport efficiency. In this article we used direct parameter extraction methodology in which S-parameters of device were measured using pinchoff cold FET biasing. The measured S-parameters are then transformed into Y-parameters to extract capacitive elements and then in to Z-parameters to extract series parasitic elements. Intrinsic parameters are extracted from Y-parameters after de-embedding all parasitic elements of devce. Microwave figure of merits and dc performance are also studied for proposed HFET. The important figure of merits of device reported in the paper include transconductance, drain conductance, current gain, transducer power gain, available power gain, maximum stable gain, maximum frequency of oscillation, cut-off frequency, stability factor and time delay. Reported results are validated with experimental and simulation results for consistency and accuracy

Identifying Causal Structures from Cyberstalking: Behaviors Severity and Association
This paper presents an etiological cyberstalking study, meaning the use of various technologies and internet in general to harass or to stalk someone. The novelty of the paper is the multivariate empirical approach of cyberstalking victimization that has received less attention from the research community. Also, there is a lack of such studies from the causal perspective. It happens, since in most of the studies, a priority is given on a single causation identification, whereas the data examination used for mining causal relationships in this paper presents a novel and great potential to detect combined or multiple cause factors. The paper focuses in the impact that variables such as age, gender and the fact whether the participant has ever harassed someone, is related to the fact of being victim of cyberstalking. The research aims to find the causes of cyberstalking in high school’s teenagers. Furthermore, an exploratory data analysis has been performed. A weak and moderate correlation between the factors on the dataset is emphasized. The odds ratio among the variables has been calculated, which implies that girls are twice as likely as boys to be cyberstalked. Similarly, concerning outcomes related to cyberstalking frequency recidivism are noticed
Vaman Karma in Yauvan Pidika (Mukhdushika) w.s.r. to Acne Vulgaris : A Case Study
Face is considered as an important part of the body as far as beauty and look is concerned. Hence, everyone in general and youngsters in particular are very cautious about beauty of their face. Acne vulgaris (A.V) is a disease of the pilosebaceous origin that causes non-inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules and nodules) and varying degrees of scarring. In Ayurveda Yauvanapidika (Acne vulgaris) is such a condition that disfigures the face during adolescent to younger age. If the condition remains untreated, it leaves permanent scars over the face. According to Ayurveda, vitiation of Kapha Dosha, Vata Dosha and Rakta Dhatu lead to development of Mukhadushika or Yauvanapidika which have resemblance with acne vulgaris in modern texts. Both modern and Ayurvedic sciences have considered the use of topical as well as oral medicines and their combination for the management of acne vulgaris. No doubt modern medication provides quick relief from acne vulgaris but cause noticeable side effects. Nowadays herbal formulations and Ayurvedic therapy are the superior choices for cosmetic purposes among the most of the population. So, the aim and objectives of this article is to minimize the side effects of Allopathic medicine in Acne vulgaris (A.V) as well as to popularized the Vamana therapy (one of the procedures of Panchakarma therapy) by a case study of 25 yrs old female patient having complaints of recurrent erythematic papules and pustules along with dark spots on her face. She was given Shodhana Therapy (Vamana therapy) and then Shaman Chikitsa (Panchkol Phanta, Chitrakadi Vati, Liv 52 DS). She got good result in Yauvanapidika (Acne vulgaris)
A STUDY ON OJAS AND OJAKSHAYA IN ETIOPATHOGENESIS OF MADHUMEHA (DIABETES MELLITUS)
Ojas is considered as essence of seven Dhatus or equivalent to Bala or Sleshma. Ojas can also be considered as living radiant energy present in human body. In Ayurveda literature the term Oja is not clearly explained by Ayurveda community. The classical Ayurveda text describes Ojakshaya as one of the Ojavikara which may be prevalent in various diseases. The pathogenesis of Madhumeha (Diabetes Mellitus) also describes this phenomenon. The prevalence of Oja kshaya can be clinically evaluated in the patients of Madhumeha and the same if kept in mind during treatment may arrest the further progress of the disease to complications like Diabetic Retinopathy, Neuropathy etc. In Ayurveda classics Ojakshaya is described in relation of Madhumeha. So, there will be prevalence of Ojakshaya in patient of Madhumeha (Diabetes Mellitus). Therefore, in this review article an attempt is made to understand the concept of Oja and Ojakshaya in diabetes mellitus

Spent Nickel cadmium batteries are classified as hazardous waste due to the presence of toxic cadmium in high concentration. Recycling of metal value by environmentally friendly process is the best option to obtain economical advantage and prevent environmental pollution. In the present investigation, a metal separation scheme is proposed for recovery of cadmium, nickel and cobalt from the leach solution of Ni-Cd battery electrode materials. After removal of the external case, the electrodes were washed with water to remove adhered alkali and dissolve in sulphuric acid in presence of a suitable additive. The iron from the leach solution was removed by selective precipitation and the iron free leach solution of composition: Ni:18.63 g/L, Cd:17.24 g/L, and Co:1.89 g/L was subjected to solvent extraction for separation of cadmium, cobalt nickel using phosphoric acid based extractants. Initially di-(2-ethyl hexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and cyanex 302 were used to extract cadmium selectively, followed by cobalt and nickel separation using PC 88A, Cyanex 272 of suitable composition. Effect of different parameters such as equilibration time, pH aqueous feed, solvent concentration, organic to aqueous phase ratio were studied to determine the optimum conditions for extraction, scrubbing and stripping of cadmium, cobalt and nickel. Requirement of number of stages were determined from Mc-Cabe-Thiele plot for complete extraction and stripping of specific metal and subsequently validated by counter current simulation study

Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest systems of medicine. It originated in India and has evolved there over thousands of years. The term “Ayurveda” combines then Sanskrit words ayur (life) andVeda (science or knowledge). Ayurveda means “the science of life. Medicinal plants and herbal drugs have played a key role in world health. According to world health organization (WHO), about 80% of the world population currently utilizes the herbal drugs. People are using herbal medicines from centuries for safety, efficacy, cultural acceptability, non-toxic, lesser side effects and easily available at affordable prices. In recent times, there has been a move in universal trend from synthetic to herbal medicine due to side effects of synthetic products. Herbal products may contain a single herb or combinations of several different herbs believed to have complementary and /synergistic effects. Some herbal products, including many traditional medicine formulations, also include animal products and minerals.
