CREATIVITY, INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Creativity is the ability to develop new ideas and to discover new ways of looking at problems and opportunities.

Innovation is the ability to apply creative solutions to problems and opportunities to enhance or to enrich people’s life.

Harvard’s Theodore Levitt says that “creativity is the thinking new things, and innovation is doing new things.” Entrepreneurs become successful by thinking and doing new things or old things in new ways.

AEROBIC MICROBIAL DEGRADATION OF M-CRESOL

Wastewater or sewage sludge is a complex mixture of organic and inorganic compound. Cresol is one of the major constituents found in waste water. Cresol being toxic/ carcinogenic for aquatic and terrestrial animals including humans, removal of these compounds to sufficiently low levels in wastewater is of great importance. The major disadvantages with the available conventional treatments are cost involved in disposal of the final effluent, production of toxic intermediates, and incomplete mineralization of the compounds.

ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF EXTRACTS FROM BARK OF AEGLE MARMELOS IN DIFFERENT SOLVENTS

Aegle marmelos is a medicinal herb belongs to the family Rutaceae, used for antimicrobial screening against selected four pathogenic microorganisms - Escherichia coli MTCC40, Salmonella typhi MTCC3216, Proteus vulgaris MTCC428 & Staphylococcus aureus MTCC3160. Bark of Aegle marmelos was extracted in ethanol and petroleum ether through cold and hot extraction method. For control petroleum ether, ethanol and Ampicilin were used.

A PRELIMINARY CHECKLIST OF THE AMPHIBIAN FAUNA OF DISTRICT LARKANA (SINDH) PAKISTAN

The field survey was carried out from March 2011 through November 2012 at twenty different sites of District Larkana to determine the undocumented and unreported occurrence of amphibian species. A total of 537 amphibian specimens were collected, out of which 312 specimens were determined to belong with family Ranidae and 225 specimens to family Bufonidae of order Anura.

EFFECT OF INFLATION ON SUPPLY CHAIN MODEL WITH EXPONENTIAL DEMAND

In this paper, the inventory models assumed that the production rate of a manufacturing system is often assumed to be constant, but in fact production rate is a variable under managerial control. Production rate may be influenced due to demand, on hand inventory and launching new competitive product or with the change in customer’s preferences. A great number of authors have studied problems connected with constant production rate by taking different deterioration and demand rate. But when a new product is launched in the super market, demand increases more rapidly as time progresses.

Performance Analysis For SNR Vs BER Of Optical System Using MLSE Equalizer With Different Modulation Technique

In This paper we present an analytical approach to evaluate the performance analysis of SNR V/s BER of Optical System using MLSE Equalizer in fiber channel through the BPSK, QPSK, 64QAM &16QAM Modulation Technique. Finally we are comparing BER performance in Optical system using MLSE Equalizer through the modulation technique.

QUICK ASSESSMENT OF GROUND WATER BY ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY SURVEY

Next to air and food, the other most important requirement for existence of mankind is water. Rapid growth in population and industrial development has made it difficult to survive on existing limited water resources. The complex geological formations have made it difficult to locate the large quantities of quality water resources. The surface water level is rapidly depleting and thus has made us rely more and more on ground water sources. DOWSING is the oldest method that is used to locate the ground water resources.

A Comparative Study Of Corporate Governance In Asia

Corporate Governance is the system of structural, procedural and cultural safeguards designed to ensure that a company is run in the long-term interests of its shareholders, as well as, other stakeholders. The Asian financial crisis of 1997-99, and the more recent corporate scandals have illustrated the importance of effective Corporate Governance systems and the linkage to business ethics throughout the world.  This study was undertaken to know whether the Asian countries follow Corporate Governance practices.

A Study Of Self-efficacy And Problem Behaviour In Relation To Academic Achievement Of Orthopedically Disabled And Able-bodied Students

The study examined the relationship of self-efficacy and problem behavior in relation to academic achievement of orthopedically disabled and able-bodied students. Participants were 200 students (100 orthopedically disabled and 100 able-bodied) selected from the inclusive and special schools of Haryana and Chandigarh. Data collected were analyzed using, Correlation, partial correlation and multiple correlations. Results show that self-efficacy positively correlated with academic achievement of orthopedically disabled and able-bodied students.

Effectiveness Of Multi-mediated Stories For Developing Language Skills In English

In the field of language teaching, educators have to struggle hard to find way to make language learning enjoyable for the learners. Different activities, games and fascinating stories have helped language teachers to accomplish this aim through many years and nowadays ‘CALL’ (Computer Assisted Language Learning – use of computers specifically for the purpose of learning language) – is in the air in language learning.
