Mass envenomation during Ganesh idol immersion at Girgaum-Chowpathy beach, Mumbai, Maharashtra
Full text linkAt the end of South-West monsoon along
Mumbai coast a swarm of the box jelly fish,
Chiropsoides buitendijki was observed during
Ganesh idol immersion at Girgaum-Chowpathy
beach, Mumbai on 10th September, 2013. The
occurrence of such large number of jelly fishes
coincided with Ganesh idol immersion, perhaps for
the first time in Mumbai waters. Several devotees
of Ganesh who congregated at Girgaum-Chowpathy
beach for immersion ritual of Ganesh idol were stung
by the jelly fish. According to the news paper
reports, the devotees moved with the idol in ankledeep
water for immersion and immediately thin
tentacle-like threads pierced legs and ankles causing
severe burning sensation
Three-Dimensional System-in-Package Using Stacked Silicon Platform Technology
No full textIn this paper, a novel method of fabricating three– dimensional (3-D) system-in-package (SiP) using a silicon carrier that can integrate known good dice with an integrated cooling solution is presented. The backbone of this stacked module is the fabrication of a silicon carrier with through-hole conductive interconnects. The design, process, and assembly to fabricate silicon through-hole interconnect using a wet silicon etching method is discussed in this paper. The process optimization to fabricate silicon carriers with solder through-hole interconnect within the design tolerance has been achieved. The design and modeling methodology to optimize the package in terms of electrical aspects of the stacked module is carried out to achieve less interconnect parasitics. An integrated cooling solution for 3-D stacked modules using single-phase and two-phase cooling solutions is also demonstrated for high-power applications. Known good thin flip-chip devices with daisy chain are fabricated and attached to the silicon carrier by flip-chip processes making it a known good carrier after electrical testing. Individual known good carriers are vertically integrated to form 3-D Si

Ego Network Analysis for Predicting Students Performance
No full textStudents and teachers use more detailed information about their strengths, weaknesses, and individual academic performance to understand why students face a learning gap and try to understand the patterns to overcome the risk in future. So the data are collected from students with greater privacy by making them answer questions that indirectly helps us to determine the character, behavior and performance of the student, And helps the college to provide great promise of quality education for all.

Mapping of literature on Bose – Einstein condensation
Full text linkThis paper attempts to highlight quantitatively the growth and development of research work in this field on Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) in terms of publication output as per Science Citation Index (1982-2005). During 1982–2005 a total of 5258 papers were published by the scientists in this field. The average number of publications published per year were 219. The highest number of papers 814 were published in 2004. There were 77 countries involved in the research in this field. USA is the top producing country with 1632 publications (31%) followed by Germany with 620 publications (11.79%). Authorship and collaboration trend was towards multiauthored papers. Intensive collaboration was found during 1996-2005. One paper “Astrophysical Journal 543 (1), (2000), L39-L42” had 56 collaborators. There were 1635 international collaborative papers. Bilateral collaboration accounted for 24 percent of total collaborative papers. National Institute of Standards & Technology (USA) topped the list with 179 publications followed by University of Colorado (USA) with 160 publications. The most prolific authors were: W.

"More Societal than Generational": Examining the Construction and Resistance of Generational Messages in the Workplace
No full textAuthor email: [email protected] Millennial generation, those born between 1980-2000, have drawn vast, sometimes fanatical, criticism in popular media. Slated as narcissistic praise hounds, they are cast as demanding graduate divas who are about to attack the workplace and everything ‘you hold sacred’ (Clark, 2008; Safer, 2007). The abundance of such messages about this generation in formats ‘tailored, targeted, and consumed’ by the public is problematic given that generational constructs are by many perceived as sacrosanct (Myers et al, 2010).
The proliferation of such criticism is by no means innocuous given the very likely impact that they will have on Millennial work opportunities. For many scholars the field of Millennial research suffers from a lack of empirical and cross sectional data to establish more calculated and careful generational constructs, – instead relying on or reacting to popular negative stereotypes. While some Millennial scholarship has begun to move beyond criticisms of popular media, Millennial research is by many considered contradictory at best and confusing at worst (Kowske et al, 2010). Additional difficulties arise when the scramble to publish more research-based work has led to methodologies which are inherently flawed because they reinforce the very same monolithic generational categories they are supposed to assess.
This study, undertaken in New Zealand, explores critical approaches as a means of examining the construction of generational messages and the establishment of generational difference. As a starting point, this small-scale examination analyses the very way in which generational messages are constructed and resisted within the workplace through an analysis of interviews undertaken with 26 employees of a Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) in the information technology sector.
Unlike many generational studies, this project did not seek to draw conclusions by framing differences and measuring responses across generational lines, but rather took a bottom-up approach to understand how participants themselves constructed and resisted messages about generational difference. The project asked two research questions: First, how are generational messages constructed in the context of the workplace? And second, how are generational messages resisted in the workplace? Through axial coding this research categorized five themes under which participants constructed generational difference. These five themes are Technology, Voice, Fairness, Informality, and Stimulus. Broadly speaking, these themes were underpinned by a belief that Millennials have a great demand for respect, democratic process, and the reduction of power distances.
Given the critical approach, the study also observed resistance as a component of the discursive process. As such this research outlines the partiality of resistance and outlines strategies of resistance employed by employees. In line with the idea that construction and resistance are mutually implicated as negotiation, participants were frequently observed simultaneously constructing and resisting generational difference, both synchronically and diachronically. Through axial coding this study also categorized three strategies of resistance. These three strategies are established as Dismissal, the Third Person Effect, and the Decline Metaphor.
This research highlights the usefulness of adopting critical approaches by illustrating the way in which generational meaning is perpetually produced, reproduced, negotiated, and resisted by participants (Murphy, 1998). While there are several factors which are indicative of the Millennial generation, this thesis establishes the hegemonic character of most constructions of generational difference. Given the fragmented and complex state of society, this thesis posits that the usefulness of the monolithic birth-cohort generation has long since passed and we should instead look to understanding generations in terms of their consumption of similar cultural capital
