Job Satisfaction Level in Insurance Sector reference to Rajkot City

One of the biggest challenges in management has been to implement effective human development strategies to improve organizational performance and accountability. Because of the emphasis on performance, human resource researchers have highlighted effective human resource strategies such as job satisfaction, team building, participatory management, and strategic planning. The fact that organization employees become keys to strategic decisions seems indisputable even in the insurance sector. A major problem for the insurance sector in increasing job dissatisfaction among its sales managers was therefore a study of “job satisfaction in the insurance sector” to highlight the factors that affect job satisfaction in an insurance worker. The major focus of this study was to understand the factors that affect job satisfaction in the insurance sector in order of importance. It was also necessary to identify the main factors that cause employee discontent so that the HR department can take action to address their gaps

Dynamics of Priacanthus hamrur (Forsskal) exploited off Saurashtra coast

Bull’s eye landings off Saurashtra reached a peak of 3813 tons in 1999 with a catch rate of 4.3 kg per haul. The group is represented by a single species, Priacanthus hamrur (Forsskal). Gut content analysis revealed P. hamrur to be a carnivorous fish with a preference for pelagic crustaceans and fishes. Spawning females were encountered from March to December and the length at first maturity of female P. hamrur was 198 mm. Recruitment to the fishery takes place with two peaks annually - one in January-February and a minor one in October-November. A common length-weight relationship for both sexes was obtained with a = 3.481x105 and b = 2.83498. The von Bertalanffy growth equation was derived as Lt = 360.35 [1-e-0.56(t+ 0.1013)] and the length attained by the fish at the end of 1 to 4 years were estimated as 165, 249, 296 and 324 mm. The length growth performance index was obtained as !’ = 4.86 and the longevity, tmax was estimated as 4.44 years. The mortality co-efficient Z, M and F were 2.35, 1.14 and 1.21, respectively and exploitation rate, E was 0.51. Stock assessment studies reveal that the present average annual catch can be increased by 764 t to reach the MSY of 4996 tons

Interaction corrections at intermediate temperatures: dephasing time

We calculate the temperature dependence of the weak localization correction in a two dimensional system at arbitrary relation between temperature, $T$ and the elastic mean free time. We describe the crossover in the dephasing time ${\tau_\phi(T)}$ between the high temperature, $1/\tau_\phi \simeq T^2 \ln T$, and the low temperature $1/\tau_\phi \simeq T$ behaviors. The prefactors in these dependences are not universal, but are determined by the Fermi liquid constant characterising the spin exchange interaction.Comment: 4 pages, to appear in PRB, minor errors corrected, added reference

Record landings of cephalopods by trawlers at Veraval during first quarter of 2009

Cephalopods represent one of the most important exploited marine fishery resources at Veraval. The cephalopod landings in Gujarat increased by more than two folds from 0.234 lakh t in 2002 to 0.49 lakh t in 2006 (Mohanraj et al., 2009), with a concomitant increase in catch rate from 5.05 kg h-1 in 2003 to 14.74 kg h-1 in 2006. The cephalopod resource was constituted mainly by Loligo duvauceli, Sepia pharaonis and S. aculeat

In-plane Magnetoconductivity of Si-MOSFET's: A Quantitative Comparison between Theory and Experiment

For densities above $n=1.6 \times 10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$ in the strongly interacting system of electrons in two-dimensional silicon inversion layers, excellent agreement between experiment and the theory of Zala, Narozhny and Aleiner is obtained for the response of the conductivity to a magnetic field applied parallel to the plane of the electrons. However, the Fermi liquid parameter $F_0^\sigma(n)$ and the valley splitting $\Delta_V(n)$ obtained from fits to the magnetoconductivity, although providing qualitatively correct behavior (including sign), do not yield quantitative agreement with the temperature dependence of the conductivity in zero magnetic field. Our results suggest the existence of additional scattering processes not included in the theory in its present form

By-catch of the gastropod Tibia spp. in gillnets operated along Gujarat coast

The rocky coastal belt of Gujarat possesses an enormous potential resource of lobsters. Gillnets are regularly operated for lobster along the coast of Mangrol, Porbunder and Muldwarka. Gastropods such as Tibia maculata and Tibia curta occurred in large quantities as by-catch along with lobsters. Other gastropods such as Archipecten sp. and Murex sp. also make their occurrence in small quantities

On the unusual landing of juvenile black pomfret at Veraval and Mangrol landing centre of Gujrat

Pomfrets form an Important component in the fishery off Mangrol and Veraval. They are landed by trawl nets and monofilament gill nets. The silver pomfret Pampas argenteus Is locally called "Vichhuda" and the black pomfret, Formio niger is called "Halva". The former dominates the pomfret fishery with peak landings in the monsoon and post monsoon period. The black pomfret does not show any regular pattern of landing

Whale shark fishery off Veraval

The occurrence of the whale shark Rhiniodon typus Smith is considered a rarity and hence, most of the publications on the whale shark are restricted to its stranding, incidental catch and length measurements. Compagno (1984) reported that commercial harvesting of the whale shark is practically non-existent. However, Rao (1986) observed existence of a small harpoon fishery for the whale shark in Veraval (Saurashtra coast). Recently, there has been a remarkable increase in effort as well as catch. There are no records to indicate a directed fishery for the whale shark elsewhere in the world. The objective of this study is limited to reporting the existence of the whale shark fishery at Veraval

NASYA-MOST VITAL THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION OF PANCHAKARMA-A REVIEW

Ayurveda is a Science and art of appropriate living which helps to achieve longevity. Panchakarma present a unique approach of Ayurveda to therapy with specially designed five procedures of internal purification of the body. One of the Panchakarma, the Nasyakarma is considered the best and the most specific procedure for disease of Urdhvajatrugatarogas like Pratishyay, Shirahshoola etc. It is also useful in other systemic diseases like Ardita, Kampavata. According to Ayurveda, the nose is the gate way to Shirah. So, systemically performed Nasyakarma cures almost all the diseases of Urdhvajatrugata rogas. Other procedures of Panchakarma are also very effective in numerous diseases according to condition but Nasya Karma is very easy to perform and there are no many strict regimens to follow during Nasya Karma but it will give effectual results in loads of diseases due to direct contact with nerve terminals by the nasal mucosa. So, it is demand of time to know about Nasyakarma and its importance. In this direction, to evaluate the actual efficacy of different Ayurveda treatment modalities; few works on Nasya Karma are compiled here. In current attempt, it has been planned to review as such works done on Nasyakarma. By this Present study it can be stated that in various diseases Nasya Karma is found to be significantly effective. It proved to be a better therapy as compared to only oral drug because it provides affect for longer duration than oral drug
