Abstract:
作者在本文中,用「新黑洞理论」,证明了我们宇宙诞生于无数“最小黑洞Mbm=mp普朗克粒子”合并的原理,它们都有确定的参数值;因此,作者就能对宇宙诞生时「原初暴涨」的机理、过程和终结提出了最新最简单的解释和计算。认为宇宙诞生时「原初暴涨」终结的时间to1,就是在‘宇宙(黑洞)包Muo’内,将我们宇宙总质能Mu=Mub
=8.8×1055g所Nbu
´
Mbm=最小黑洞,连成一个整体的、而造成宇宙黑洞短暂的「超光速空间暴涨」=「原初暴涨」的结束时间t01。因为许许多多Nbu层层叠叠挤在一起的最高密度最高温度的最小黑洞Mbm的合并必定造成宇宙黑洞「超光速空间暴涨」=「原初暴涨」。早在1981
年,史丹福大學的阿蘭.古斯(Alan
Guth),只能根据宇宙中的「平直性疑難」和「視界疑難」的结论,提出了宇宙的「原初暴涨」理论,因为他也认为宇宙起源于‘奇点’和‘奇点大爆炸’,而‘奇点’是无任何物理参数值的量。

Abstract:
There is no adequate and reliable information on the
plant materials that could contribute significantly to
the growth of land snail in the study area. A total of
sixty (60) snails were divided into three groups (A, B
and C) and fed with three different plant material
(paw-paw fruit, orange chaff and combination the two,
i.e. paw-paw + orange chaff) for a period of eight
weeks. Data obtained were subjected to one way analysis
of variance (ANOVA) and descriptive statistics. The
results obtained indicated that snail group fed with
combination of paw-paw plus orange chaff recorded the
highest weight (9.68kg) as against those fed with orange
chaff (7.29kg) and paw-paw fruit (6.62kg) respectively.
The result of cumulative length gained were 5.58cm,
4.67cm and 4.65cm for combination of paw-paw and orange
chaff, orange chaff alone and paw-paw fruit alone
respectively. There was significant difference (P<0.05)
between the snails fed with combination of the feds
(orange chaff and paw-paw fruit) and the single feeds.
There was positive correlation between weight and length
of snails fed with the three plant materials. Rearing of
Achatina achatina fed with the combination of
paw-paw fruit and orange chaff as better plant material
is recommended.

Abstract:
A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2014
up to April 2015 in and around Kombolcha district with
the objective of determining the comparative prevalence
of bovine coccidiosis and ostertagiosis infection in
calves, and the associated risk factors in different
production systems. Fecal samples were randomly
collected from a total of 384 calves with the age of 1
month to 1 year old. After collection, the samples were
transported to Kombolcha regional veterinary laboratory
and examined for the presence of Eimeria spp.
oocyst and Strongyle type eggs by flotation
techniques and fecal culture for further identification
to the genus level (Ostertagia). In this study, out of
384 calves whose fecal samples were ex, amined, to
investigate the two genera,
Ostertagia spp.
occurred in 202 calves (52.6%), and the
Eimeria
spp. occurred in 112 calves (29.2%). In 80
(20.8%) of all animals in the current study co-infection
has been identified. In the present study there were
statistically significant differences (P< 0.05) in the
prevalence of Eimeria spp. and Ostertagia spp.
infection, and co-infection in relation to body
condition, age and management systems. However, there
was no significant association between sex of calves
investigated in relation neither with Eimeria spp.,
Ostertagia spp. infection nor with mixed infections
(P>0.05). The present findings demonstrated that
Eimeria spp. and Ostertagia spp. to be important
pathogens in calves in the study area. Hence, further investigations should be conducted in order to render
more detail information about bovine ostertagiosis and
coccidiosis in the study area, so as to put appropriate
control and prevention measures in place.

Abstract
:
Salmonella enterica
serovar Typhimurium belongs to the group of
pathogens causing non-typhoidal infections. The presence
of pathogenic bacteria in raw milk and its products have
been reported to be a major threat to human health. This
study therefore, aimed at determining the antibiotic
resistance pattern of Salmonella enterica serovars
Typhimurim isolates from locally processed
dairy products. One hundred and twenty (120)
dairy product samples (“wara” and “nono”) from major
towns in Ekiti State were examined for Salmonella
contamination. Isolates were tested for antibiotic
susceptibility by disc diffusion methods. A total of
81(67.50%) of the samples were found contaminated
with Salmonella, of which 38 (46.90%) were
identified to be Salmonella enterica serovars
Typhimurium. Ado had the highest number of
contaminated samples with (53.09%), while Ido had the
least contaminated samples with (25.49%). The result
reveals high percentage of antibiotic resistance
(34.21%) against Streptomycin, while ciprofloxacin had
the highest susceptibility frequency (89%). Results of
antibiotic susceptibility pattern of isolates from
different towns revealed that S. Typhimurim
isolates of Ado origin had the highest resistance
pattern with (55.64%).
Multiple antibiotic resistance result indicates that 2
(11.11%) of isolates from Ado resisted all (10)
antibiotics tested. The highest multiple antibiotic
resistance recorded for Ikere isolates was 5, while Ido
isolates shown the least resistance to 4 antibiotics.
There was high occurrence of antibiotic resistance S.
Typhimurim in ready-to-eat foods sold in the study
areas which can poses a great health risk for the
consumers. Hence, there is need to educate and monitor
the food handlers to comply with good hygiene practices.

Abstract:
In the young Iranian
free market economy, small and medium sized enterprises
are recognized as a major source of innovation,
flexibility and growth. On the other hand, they proved
to be more vulnerable than big companies, being
threatened by scarce resources and by fierce competition
that increases even more now. Under these circumstances,
governmental support in this field is an imperative. The
numerous failures that SMEs encounter in the first five
years should represent a major concern for authorities.
In this respect, we consider that studying and important
factors for entrepreneurial success is of great interest
for entrepreneurs, policy makers, academics involved in
researching and teaching Entrepreneurship. In our
research, we focused on two categories of success
factors: those directly related to the entrepreneur on
the one hand, and those related to the external
environment in which SMEs operate, on the other.

Kierkegaard and the
Ashʻarite on Reason and Theology
Naʻimeh Pur Mohammadi
Ph.D student, Department
of Philosophy and Theology, the Science and Research
Unit, Islamic Azad
University, Tehran, Iran
naemepoormohammadi@yahoo.com
Abstract:
What is the contribution
of the reason to Kierkegaard’s and the Ashʻarite
theology? This is the question dealt with in this
article. Neither Kierkegaard’s nor the Ashʻarite systems
of theology is anti-rational, for Kierkegaard regards
the contradiction present in the object of faith as
absolute rather than logical, suggesting thereby the
existential dialectics for understanding this
contradiction instead of resolving it. The Ashʻarite
also hold that one can understand the existence of God
through the absolute reason which is not commanded by
sharʻ (religion), yet such understanding leads to no
practical outcome. The anti-rationalism option is thus
rejected. The other two options here are:
supra-rationalism and rationalism. Kierkegaard’s
theology is supra-rationalism while that of the
Ashʻarite is rationalism. Faith, Kierkegaard says, is
not rational because it will be undecided by abeyance
and postponement of the philosophical reasoning,
by the approximation of the historical evidences, and
due to the lack of confidence in the Bible; however, it
is not irrational because the contradiction presents in
the understanding of faith rather than in the existence,
then it is supra-rational. For the Ahʻarite, however,
faith can be made rational and justified through the
command and guidance of sharʻ to find some sound
reasoning. Reason has no contribution in Kierkegaard’s
theology neither as a sine qua non nor as a sufficient
condition. For the Ashʻarite, nonetheless, reason is a
merely sine qua non but not a sufficient condition and
it is in need of sharʻ. Reason in Ashʻarite both fails
to penetrate into all of the premises of the argument
and falls short of binding man to accept its knowledge.
It is sharʻ which comes into play to help reason both to
improve its objection and to compensate the binding and
obligation.

Abstract:
Given to
the impacts of the Iran-Iraq war and strategic
importance and geographical situation of Hormoz strait,
Islamic Republic of Iran Navy has adopted the asymmetric
defense pattern. In accordance, Iranian Naval force has
deployed this naval policy with defensive aims and
deterrent purpose against the enemy, through taking
advantage of geographical situation and strategic
importance of the region as well as focusing on
Shiite-inspired concepts like martyrdom. This pattern
concentrates on using the advanced technologies and
modern weaponry in situation unexpected for the enemy.
In other word, in this defense pattern, speed,
ambiguity, spread and dispersion by the usage of armed
speedboats, extensive mining and missile attacks from
submarines and sites situated in the Persian Gulf shores
and islands beside the combined and simultaneous air
attack are considered key factors. Given to these
issues, the article aims to evaluate principles of
Iran’s naval defense pattern.

Abstract:
Providing energy in a
clean method not creating environmental problems for
human being was always one of the important concerns of
the countries in 21th century. America by importing
about 20million oil barrel per day is very dependent on
Middle East as a region with about 60% of the oil in the
world. This dependence on Middle East oil encountered
USA with an extensive political and safety issues during
the previous decades. Here Barak Obama administration in
its strategy emphasized more on some policies such as
“Diversification”, “reserve” of fuel resources,
increasing “energy efficiency” and investing on new
energies to reduce USA dependency on Middle East oil by
decreasing oil consumption. Besides, oil consumption
reduction by increasing efficiency and using alternative
energies decrease concerns especially in USA about
environmental issues, the concern that was especially
being emphasized in Obama presidential campaign.
