CLINICO-ANATOMICAL ASEPCTS OF AARTAVA AAGNEYATVYA WITH REFERENCE TO POST MENOPAUSAL SYMPTOMS
No full textMenopause means permanent cessation of menstruation at the end of reproductive life due to the loss of ovarian follicular activity. Due to increased life expectancy about 1/3rd of life span of the female will be spent during the period of estrogen deprivation stage with long term symptomatic and metabolic complications.
According to Ayurveda menstruation starts from 12 years of the age and ends at the age of 45 years and structure is termed as Aartava. This Aartava is Agni Guna Dominant. In this article focus is on various Clinico-anatomical aspects of Post Menopausal Symptoms with respect to Aagneyatvya of Aartava

Municipal commonage in South Africa: A public good going bad?
No full textThis article deals with the ‘Cinderella' of urban spaces – municipal commonage. The author argues that commonage is a valuable natural heritage resource. However, municipalities face pitfalls in giving expression to central policymakers' dictates regarding land redistribution. A warning is issued that by trying to turn the clock back to commonage policies more suited to a bygone era, municipalities run the risk of forfeiting both the income their commonage has the potential to generate and the very asset itself. The author contends that, until government can offer municipalities a coherent, viable model for commonage management, it would be folly to abandon the system of renting out commonage to the highest bidders.

A normalization procedure and determination of axisymmetric defect characters of composite panels
No full textIn Pulse Thermographic Nondestructive Evaluation (TNDE), the thermographic signals are heavily influenced by material directionalities, therefore comparison of thermographic results are challenging. In this study a normalization procedure is introduced which simplifies the analysis and requires only break time, equilibrium temperature, and diffusivity ratios of transverse to lateral diffusivity. The normalization for the composite panels was proved to be effective for quasi-isotropic carbon epoxy composite panels used in the study. A correlation method was utilized to estimate the defect diameter and depth of a composite panel. The correlation method utilizes several numerical models to estimate the correct defect parameter of the experimental specimen. Thermographic Signal Reconstruction (TSR) second derivatives [1] found to be effective in differentiating the defect parameters. Since this method was proved to be successful an additional advantage of this method of estimating the in-plane diffusivity of unknown composite panels also have been proposed.</p

Examining the Narcissism Trend in Generation Y Through Digital Narrative Film
No full textThis thesis presents an account of the making of 15 Minutes of Faye, a microbudget feature-length film created in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Film and Digital Media at the University of Central Florida. It chronicles the motivation behind the creation of the film, the entire creation process, plans for its distribution, and reflections on lessons learned during the creation process. The film itself was designed to challenge its viewers with the gross self-absorption of its fame-seeking protagonist, in order to promote public discourse about Generation Y\u27s sense of entitlement, which has been well-documented in academic literature. It is the author\u27s hope that this document will promote awareness of the film\u27s subject matter, and will also aid others seeking to create microbudget feature-length films
INFORMATION SUBSIDIES AND MEDIA PORTRAYALS: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF PUBLIC RELATIONS’ CONTRIBUTION TO THE DISPARAGING IMAGES OF MUSLIMS IN DOMESTIC NEWS MEDIA
No full textIn 2018 the United States has arguably become the divided states with segments of the population, particularly domestic Muslims and their international counterparts being holistically branded as war-ridden radicalized extremists. From 9/11 to 2018, Islam and some of its believers have been inextricably linked to terror, violence, war, and oppression. As expressed in previous pertinent scholarly works, if one Muslim commits an act of terror, he somehow represents the entire religion. Other scholars and bestselling authors have validated such discussions positing that the media has the power through its agenda to set public agenda by convincing viewers that an entire generation and population of people are the enemies and not to be trusted. This exploratory study provides primary research through a content analysis by investigating not the ‘what,’ but the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of the consistent unfavorable depictions of Muslims in domestic media. This research delves more in-depth than the cliché of blaming the news, by posing the question: are public relations (PR) practitioners feeding the media propaganda information subsidies that directly frames the story based on U.S. Ideologies, policies, and unconscious confirmation biases toward Muslims? To satisfy this query, the author linked information subsidies to the press agentry/publicity communications model and investigated how both coupled with framing theory may have contributed to the consistent debasing narratives on Muslims. Over the course of two weeks, three coders (including the author) with backgrounds in public communications content analyzed 115 print stories from The Washington Post, from September 2001 to September 2018, for quantitative and qualitative analysis of the text. Final results indicated that of 115 print stories, 48 carried a negative salience toward Muslims with 21 of the 48 connecting followers of Islam directly to terrorism or being depicted as the anathema of European states and some East Asian nations due to xenophobia and Islamophobia
Review Article - Recent Publications in Quaker Studies
No full textQuaker studies is a disparate and varied field. Like many a new area of research it suffers from a lack of contact between researchers and the inability of all but a select few to make a career in the field. As a consequence, excellent work may go unnoticed and unreported because the individual author is not part of any national association or academic network or because the absence of scholarly interest in the field means that many texts are published by small presses and come to light only in the rarefied atmosphere of Friends House book shop. The mission of Quaker Studies to provide a forum for new scholarship, and to keep our readers in touch with the work done in other disciplines. As part of this mission we hope in the future to publish an annual critical essay which will offer a round up of the years work in Quaker studies. However, it will not be the policy of this section to review substantially unrevised new editions, so although, for example, Larry Ingle\u27s Quakers in Conflict (Ingle 1998) is a welcome reprint, it . will not be considered as part of the recent output in Quaker studies. This year we have chosen to begin with a retrospective of some of the more interesting work available while at the same time considering some of the issues which face the discipline
