Indira Gandhi Canal
This file contains a digital map of the Indira Gandhi Canal (India) in Google Earth KMZ format that was produced as part of The IBT Water Project at Auburn University. The Indira Gandhi Canal was primarily designed to support irrigation in the Thar Desert region of the state of Rajasthan in western India. Originally called the Rajasthan Canal, the project was renamed in 1984 in honor of the former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Stage I of construction began in 1952 and was completed in 1983. This stage is described as consisting of a 204 km feeder canal and 189 km main canal (393 km total). Stage 2 extended the main canal an additional 256 km. Construction appears to be ongoing today as the extent of water distribution expands. As of 2021, the canal appears to feature approximately 200 diversions to secondary distribution canals of varying sizes and approximately 45 control gates to manage flow rates and assist in diverting water to the secondary canals. Metadata embedded in the KMZ file include author contact, Creative Commons License information, and list of references.

MRS. GANDHI GAVE NEW ECONOMIC APPROACHES
Plenty of food, Sufficient clothing, Proper monitoring of the Key Socio- Economic factors, with commitment to Domestic Productivity were the Essence of the Administrative strategy of Mrs. Indira Gandhi (Late Prime Minister of India). These approaches could be critically related to the remarkable Economic advancement of the Indian sub-continent, with Self- sufficiency in Agriculture, leaving a surplus for export and strides in Industry, Atomic Research, and Space Exploration in India. The author feels that these unique thoughts and approaches of the late Prime Minister could serve as an eye-opener to all the Third World Nations to Accelerate their pace of Social and Economic development. ================================================================ Between 1972 and 1981, the author was a Social worker in India, and a Honorary Consultant for the effective implementation and monitoring of the 20 Point Socio-Economic Development programs designed by Shrimathi Indira Gandhi, the late Prime Minister of India.

Diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease using Principal Component Analysis and Boosting Committee Machines
Diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease using Fuzzy C-Means Clustering and Pattern Recognition
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a global public health problem of enormous dimension. In this study, we aimed to discriminate between healthy people and people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Various studies revealed, that voice is one of the earliest indicator of PD, and for that reason, Parkinson dataset that contains biomedical voice of human is used. The main goal of this paper is to automatically detect whether the speech/voice of a person is affected by PD. We examined the performance of fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering and pattern recognition methods on Parkinson’s disease dataset. The first method has the main aim to distinguish performance between two classes, when trying to differentiate between normal speaking persons and speakers with PD. This method could greatly be improved by classifying data first and then testing new data using these two patterns. Thus, second method used here is pattern recognition. The experimental results have demonstrated that the combination of the fuzzy c-means method and pattern recognition obtained promising results for the classification of PD

La división entre naturaleza y cultura está en la constitución del pensamiento moderno y en la forma de existencia que propone. Este gran divisor, al mismo tiempo epistemológico y ontológico, reservó a las ciencias humanas y las ciencias naturales sus objetos de análisis: la acción humana y el dominio de la cultura para las primeras y; el dominio de la naturaleza y sus fenómenos para las segundas. Para la antropología social, una de las cuestiones clásicas y estructurantes de sus discusiones ha sido la propia dicotomía entre la naturaleza y la cultura. Partiendo de las reflexiones sobre la constitución de la humanidad, la palabra cultura se concibe como una fuerza activa y creativa que da forma a una naturaleza pasiva y dada, externa a la actividad humana.- Por una antropología de la vida frente a la catástrofe ambiental por Suzane de por Alencar Vieira, Indira Viana Caballero y Alejandro Fujigaki Lares.Siembra en los andenes prehispánicos de Andamarca, Ayacucho (Perú), 2011.

Paradigms of Development: Issues in Industrial Policy in India -
This paper presents empirical evidence on the cement industry in Gujarat to support the argument that the state still has an important role to play in determining the development path of India. A detailed case study of the impact of two cement plants on their localities includes the consequences for employment generation, land markets, farmer livelihoods, labour markets, environment and pollution. The author concludes that public action is required in order to achieve sectoral balance, secure adequate environmental protection and correct factor market distortions.
