Abstract:
Today, science and technology
pervade an indispensable component of our world,
especially agriculture. This is because scientific and
technological advancement in agriculture has benefited
farmers in the industrialized world by driving
agricultural production. However, farmers in Nigeria are
yet to substantially gain from this advancement. This
paper therefore, discusses the role of science and
technology in the improvement of indigenous farming in
Ikwerre, Rivers State, Nigeria. It explores the
traditional agricultural practices and the challenges
faced by indigenous Ikwerre farmers. For the purposes of
this research, data were collected through qualitative
method with focus groups and individual interviews.
Findings revealed that there is the need for farmers to
advance in the technological know-how of the modern
farming equipment and it is recommended that government
should deploy the benefits of Science and Technology in
the improvement of indigenous farming in Nigeria by way
of extension services.

Abstract:
Housing is a major need
of man; and from generation to generation
the provision of the basic needs has been a big
challenge. The process, method, and products of the
provision of shelter for man are housing. In many
countries the effort to provide housing seemed
unmanageable. In Nigeria, successive governments have
made pledges to provide housing without success. The
generation of funds for housing is one of the most tasks
individuals face. In some societies the government
effectively provides, but in Nigeria there is a
lacuna. Several finance methods are available to
individuals and governments. These methods provide a
good market for funds provision and housing utilization.
It is expected that government in Nigeria will key into
the gains of housing for the wider society and for the
individuals.

Abstract:
current vs
time response for potentiostatic deposition of ZnO
nanowires indicating four regions I, II, III and IV as
explained earlier in the case of structure growth for
CdS nanowires. It is difficult to determine the end of
the synthesis, because no constant current is observed.
For this reason, it is preferable to use smaller
deposition currents in order to decrease the deposition
rate, facilitating control over the process. The
crystallanity of electrodeposited ZnO nanowires was
confirmed by XRD studies which were carried out using
X-ray diffractometer (PW1710) with Cu-Kα (λ = 1.54Å)
radiation. The scanning was done between 20 degrees and
60 degrees for 2 theta values. The typical 2θ and
d-values for different planes in ZnO nanowires. X-Ray
diffraction pattern of ZnO nanowires. Strong reflections
corresponding to (100), (002), (101), (102) and (110)
are observed indicating that ZnO nanowires were
polycrystalline in nature. From the XRD it is clear that
(101) plane is more crystalline phase and structure of
ZnO is wurtzite. Laser induced pulse excitation method
was used to study the PL spectra of ZnO nanowires. The
decay signals (5) from the ZnO nanowires were recorded
by digital storage oscilloscope and analysed using
computer simulations to calculate emission wavelength of
the nanowires. The emission wavelength of ZnO nanowires
is found to be 590 nm (2.1 eV). In photoluminescence
spectra, a strong peak at 590 nm in the visible region
is observed. The visible emission at 590 nm corresponds
to deep level emission due to defects. This defect
related emission is attributed to the single ionized
oxygen vacancy in ZnO, and it results from radioactive
recombination of electron related to oxygen vacancies
and photogenerated holes (Vanheusden et al 1996). It is
generally accepted that the defect related emission
depends upon crystal quality –the better crystal quality
enhances the UV-emission with reduction of the deep
level emission (Umar et al 2006). In our case, the ZnO
nanowires are polycrystalline in nature which shows that
the appearance of visible peak at 590 nm in
photoluminescence spectrum is consistent with the XRD
investigations.

between people of very different cultures allows a keen
understanding of the people themselves, religions,
cultural traditions of peoples, etc.
Dialogue approaches peoples. People who have a dialogue
have no reason to go to war. Unfortunately, the worst or
even devastating aspects of social media are mainly on
the young or on the very young people who have not yet
completed a school cycle, and on people who are not yet
fully culturally equipped to handle a powerful tool such
as the social media. Because they do not realize the
devastating impact that their actions or words may be
have on people.

Recognition Of LGBT

Abstract:
LGBT is initialism that
stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender. This
term came into use as early as in 1990s. The word
Lesbian refers to a homosexual woman. The word Gay
refers to a homosexual male. The word Bisexual refers to
a person who is sexually attracted not exclusively to
people of one particular gender. Clauses 361 and 362
(the predecessor provisions to Sec 377 of the IPC)
relate to offences respecting which it is desirable that
as little as possible be said, we are unwilling to
insert either in the text or in the notes anything which
could give rise to public discussion on this revolting
subject, as we are decidedly of the opinion that the
injury which could be done to the morals of the
community by such discussion would more than compensate
for any benefits which might be derived from legislative
measures framed with greatest precision.

Abstract:
Fiber
optics, lasers, and communication machines are the three
basic elements of fiber-optic communication----fiber
communication is one of the most significant four
inventions since World War II. Without fiber-optic
communication, there would be no Internet and
communication networks today. There are several
important node events in fiber-optic communications: In
1966, Shanghai-born British/American Chinese sorghum
first proposed glass filaments for communication. In
1970, the United
States spent 30 million US dollars to produce three
30-meter-long fiber samples, which is the first time in
the world to produce fiber that has practical value for
fiber-optic communication.

Abstract:
The study analyses the annual budgetary allocations of
Rivers State government from 2001 to 2016 with a view to
extracting the proportion (percentage) of the budgets
allocated to Regional Development (city development
activities outside Port Harcourt City, which has
remained the only city in Rivers State since its
creation in 1967). It views budgetary allocation as the
major tool for the allocation of resources, and this has
direct implications on spatial development. The study
adopted Francois Perroux’s Growth Pole theory and that
of John Rawls’ Theory of “Justice as Fairness” as its
theoretical framework. Questionnaires were administered
to ascertain factors that generate growth of urban
centres. Secondary data comprised a review of the annual
budgets of Rivers State from 2001 to 2016. The test
model (Spearman rank correlation coefficient) supports
the null hypothesis that there is no correlation between
the Rivers State Government’s annual budgetary
expenditure and regional development: Government has not
evolved a plan for conscious development of other cities
in the State. The study further reveals that allocation
of resources and projects is not based on equity,
fairness and justice but on political consideration. It
concludes that growth pole for the purpose of this study
be construed as a localization of growth inducing
forces, based on local peculiarities and specialization,
and that development of growth centres or cities takes
time, commitment and patience., It recommends that
medium term plans, not annual budgets be evolved for
regional development programmes. Site and Services
scheme should be provided by the Rivers State Government
to create the enabling environment for private
developers and investors and also encourage
public-private- partnership (PPP) as a component of
policy to develop garden (new) cities outside Port
Harcourt, incorporating scenic green belts, and open
spaces, as well as enforcement of Town Planning
Standards and development control mechanisms, while
using stick (disincentives) and Carrot approaches
(incentives such as placing tax free years) to encourage
outward movement from Port Harcourt.

Abstract:
The aim of this research
was to understand the relationship between educational
achievement and social capital (communication dimension
of social capital) from the viewpoint of teachers of
Iran, Shiraz. Two standard questionnaires for
educational achievement and social capital were used.
The validity of the instruments was confirmed by
researcher made questionnaire which was designed based
on Likert measurement system. The reliability of the
questionnaires was calculated by Cronbach's Alpha, which
were both at significant level. The results from
educational achievement and social capital show that
Cronbach's Alpha of educational achievement and social
capital was 0.79 and 0.85 respectively. Research
participants were selected by random sampling. By using
Pearson's correlation method results show that the
communication dimensions of social capital are:
confidence, group norm, commitment & expectations,
identity. There is a significant relationship between
confidence, group norm, commitment & expectations,
identity with the educational achievement.

Abstract:
Iran as a most famous
energy exporting country had a increasing in energy
intensity from the 1979 revolution until 2009, but since
then the rate of increasing slowed and energy intensity
actually decreased in 2007. Most of this energy
intensity decline can be accounted for by falling coal
and gas consumption in the industrial sector. In other
word and to the best of our knowledge, no decomposition
study has investigated the role of inter-fuel
substitution in the decline in energy intensity or
causes of the rise in energy intensity since 2007. In
this paper, logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI)
techniques are established for decompose changes in
energy intensity in the period 1980-2009. The results
showed that technological change is confirmed as the
dominant contributor to improve in energy intensity and
structural change at the industry level actually
increased energy intensity over this period. Also this
changes for industry sector is more and for agriculture
is so smoothed.
