No full textMacrodasys indicus Govindankutty & Nair, 1969 Records from India. KERALA: Azhikode, Fort Kochi (Cochin)— Govindankutty & Nair (1969, 1972), Nair & Govindankutty (1972); GENERAL RECORD: Naidu & Rao (2004). Habitat. Intertidal, marine; medium sand near mid-tide level. Remarks. Hummon & Todaro (2010) commented—“The proper name is M. indicus, as in the text, and not M. idicus, as occurs in Fig. 7; this is as determined by the first reviser, Hummon, 2008b:127 (ICZN 24.2.2)”. We agree with Hummon & Todaro (2010) to consider this taxon to be species inquirenda as the available morphological information is insufficient for a reliable identification of the Indian specimens. Indeed as it is sketched the specimens look more like a Mesodasys than a Macrodasys.Published as part of Chatterjee, Tapas, Priyalakshmi, Geetha & Todaro, M.

Spot IT internal intranet website / Rekha Nair C.Gamgadharan Nair
No full textWhen we look at the sheer volume of information stored by corporations today, including reams of printed information like computer documentation, procedures, specifications, and reference documents, we quickly see the argument for taking information online. Users no longer have time to wade through a shelf full of manuals to
find some obscure tidbit of information, and companies can no longer justify the cost of
printing all this information without any guarantee that users are actually reading it.
Then there is the problem of keeping all that printed information up-to-date.
Many companies are already using intranets to deliver information to internal users. The
term intranet refers to the fact that the Web (or other Internet applications) are being run
completely on the inside of a private network, often without a direct connection to the
Internet. There are a number of information resources and transactions that are potential
candidates for an intranet. Considering the rapid growth of intranets, a study was conducted on the impact
of intranets in Malaysian organizations. Since feedback is slow, this study was limited to
sending out questionnaires only. The analysis was not done as the author was given the
freedom to concentrate on the development of the system proposed (this will be
discussed later).
The author has taken the opportunity to introduce intranet and the recent issues
involving intranets in this first part of the thesis First of all, the author starts off with a
discussion on the questions that were posed in the questionnaire that were sent to
Malaysian organizations to get response on the impact intranet has on them. Following
which, the author continues to tackle subjects like definition of intranets, history of
intranets, i sues to consider when building an intranet, key intranet questions to be asked
before deciding to build an intranet, intranet myths, intranet reference model and finally
to the core of the research in hand, what materials on the internet have say about intranet benefits and challenges. These materials were very valuable in the process of designing
the questionnaire. At the same time, studies on the impact of intranets on foreign
organizations and also the use of intranet in the state of Sabah were also conducted and
the outcomes of these findings are also explained in the literature review section of this
thesis.
In addition to the research topic in hand, an internal web site within an intranet for a
mock organization, West Indies Oil Refiners, called SPOT I.T is also proposed to be
developed, the third and fourth chapter of this thesis will discuss in detail on the
proposed development of this web site. SPOT I. T is in tune to the intranet concept; it is
intended to serve I. T services to all employees of the organization. Even though it is I. T
department based, all employees from any department can equally benefit from the
content it has to offer. LT services has been chosen as the theme of this website due to
the fact, apart from human resource, information technology has always been the
concern of all in the organization, this is even more true with the implementation of
intranets. SPOT I.T will provide forms such as complaint and request forms for users to fill
in I. T based complaints and services, apart from this, they can also check what their
status of complaint/request is. They will also be able to find I. T agreements, project
details, information on personnel policies and benefits, lists of I. T related links and tools,
information on I. T training and seminars, frequently asked questions, I. T department
chart, interesting places to visit and also a calendar which lets users know what
interesting events are happening every day. SPOT I.T is developed using the evolutionary prototype model. A few existing
intranet websites were studied to get ideas on functional, non-functional requirements
and design concepts. The author had to research through materials to find suitable
development software for SPOT 1.T. The findings of these materials are presented in
chapter three, system analysis and requirement. In the fourth chapter, system design, the author discusses the design of the system. SPOT I.T architecture is divided into
administrator module and user module. The functional design of the system will be
presented using data flow diagrams and structure charts. Following this the design of
databases will be discussed through presentations of entity relationship diagram and
samples of table designs. The main source of research for the design of SPOT I. T was
the research findings in literature review. Certain examples of existing intranet related
sites were used as foundations to determine the requirements and design of the system.
In the fifth chapter, the author will discuss briefly on how the system requirements were
transformed to implementation. This discussion will be mainly on the coding and the
database connection. The hardware and software required for the implementation will
also be stated. The sixth chapter will include the stages of testing that was conducted to
ensure the system is not only error free but also meet the requirement. Finally, the
seventh chapter will conclude with the evaluation of the system. The system strengths
and weaknesses will be studied, at the same time future enhancements that can be made
to the system will also be analyzed. The author will also share knowledge, which was
gained, and the difficulties faced throughout the project.
The most important aim of this whole project is the intention to prove that
intranet based applications definitely can make a difference in an organization

Neeti Nair. Hurt Sentiments: Secularism and Belonging in South Asia
No full textIn Hurt Sentiments: Secularism and Belonging in South Asia, Neeti Nair unravels the historically shifting meanings of secularism, religious statehood, citizenship, censorship, majoritarian demands, and minority rights in the Indian subcontinent. The author takes the passage of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) of 2019 and the ensuing protests in India as a starting point to chart a longer, intertwined history of secularism and citizenship in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan. For Nair, the P..
The reaction of heterocyclic amine with pendant naphthyl group in Pd(alpha/beta-NaiR)Cl-2 (alpha/beta-NaiR=1-alkyl-2-(naphthyl-alpha/beta-azo)imidazoles) and the product characterisation
No full textThe reaction of Pd(alpha/beta-NaiR)Cl-2 (1-alkyl-2-(naphthyl-alpha/beta-azo)imidazoles, alpha-NaiR (1) and beta-NaiR (2)) with m-aminopyridine (m-NH2-Py) and o-aminopyrimidine (o-NH2-Pym) in acetonitrile solution has synthesized a C-N coupled product, chloro[1-alkyl-2-{(7-imidophenyl)pyridyl-alpha/beta-azo}imidazole-N,N',N '']palladium(II), Pd(alpha/beta-NaiR-N-Py-m)Cl (3, 4) and Pd(alpha/beta-NaiR-N-2-Py-o)Cl (5, 6). The structural confirmation has been carried out by X-ray diffraction study. The solution electronic spectra of C-N fused products, 3-6, show transitions within 600-900 rim those are absent in Pd(alpha/beta-NaiR)Cl-2. Cyclic voltammogram shows four successive redox couples, one of them (positive to SCE) is oxidative in nature and others (negative to SCE) are ligand reductions. Emission is observed from ligand centred orbitals and has been ascribed to pi-pi* excitation process. The excited state decays following radiative and nonradiative biexponential routes. Absorption and fluorescence spectra of pyridylamine fusion product show H+ and metal ion (Zn2+, Cd2+) sensitivity.</p
A comparison of electrophysiological properties of the CNGA1, CNGA1tandem and CNGA1cys-free channels.
No full textItem does not contain fulltextThree constructs are used for the analysis of biophysical properties of CNGA1 channels: the WT CNGA1 channel, a CNGA1 channel where all endogenous cysteines were removed (CNGA1cys-free) and a construct composed of two CNGA1 subunits connected by a small linker (CNGA1tandem). So far, it has been assumed, but not proven, that the molecular structure of these ionic channels is almost identical. The I/V relations, ionic selectivity to alkali monovalent cations, blockage by tetracaine and TMA+ were not significantly different. The cGMP dose response and blockage by TEA+ and Cd2+ were instead significantly different in CNGA1 and CNGA1cys-free channels, but not in CNGA1 and CNGA1tandem channels. Cd2+ blocked irreversibly the mutant channel A406C in the absence of cGMP. By contrast, Cd2+ did not block the mutant channel A406C in the CNGA1cys-free background (A406Ccys-free), but an irreversible and almost complete blockage was observed in the presence of the cross-linker M-4-M. Results obtained with different MTS cross-linkers and reagents suggest that the 3D structure of the CNGA1cys-free differs from that of the CNGA1 channel and that the distance between homologous residues at position 406 in CNGA1cys-free is longer than in the WT CNGA1 by several Angstroms
