Attitude of senior secondary students towards e-learning
The central purpose of education is to help individuals make necessary adjustments towards a constant changing environment. e-learning is efficient as it eliminates distance and subsequent commutes. The different types of e-learning are based on, means of communication, schedule, e-learning class structure and technologies applied. Positive attitudes can help teachers to deal with the new situation with less stress and so enable them to take steps appropriately in tune with the need of the students and the institution. In this view point the researchers have undertaken this study. The present study was conducted in New Delhi and 800 senior secondary level school students were selected. The descriptive study method was adopted; stratified random sampling technique was used in selecting the samples. A well-designed and pre-tested questionnaire was used to collect primary data. The result revealed that Students’ personal variables such as, gender, subject specialization, parents’ education, parents’ monthly income and school management are differed significantly among themselves. Suitable suggestions are given to improve students’ attitude towards e-learning paradigm.

Behaviour of polyphenol oxidase of pyrus communis in presence of Detergents and Chaotropic Agents
Polyphenol oxidase (EC 1.14.18.1) is ubiquitous plant enzyme that catalyze the O-dependent oxidation of mono- and o-diphenols to o-quinones. These quinones are reactive species that are able to covalently modify and cross-link a wide variety of cellular nucleophiles via a 1,4 addition mechanism, leading to the formation of polymeric brown or black pigments, which are responsible for significant postharvest losses of fruits andvegetables. Browning of damaged tissues in fresh fruits and vegetables results mainly from the oxidation of phenolic compounds to quinones by PPO. The activation of PPO by sodium dodesyl sulphat investigated, but reports on the effect of some detergents and chaotropic agents on activity of PPO are scarce. Here the effect of detergents and chaotropic agent on activity of enzyme in soluble and in partial purified fraction of PPO of Wild pear was investigated. Sarkosyl acts as a activator of PPO for oxidation of catechol and pyrogallol, although has inhibitory effect in concentrations over 1 mM. Other ionic, Nonionic detergents and Chaotropic agents acted as inhibitors of PPO in soluble and in partial purified fraction. Inhibitory effect of Urea, GnHcl, NP-40 and Sodium cholate in presence of catechol is more than these effect in presence of pyrogallol, but this inhibitory for Triton X-100 in presence of pyrogallol is more than catechol. The same effects were obtained on the partially purified enzyme. Results identified and confirmed the differences in structure and conformation of enzyme in soluble and in partial purified fraction for oxidation of different substrates.

Choice Criteria for Customer Patronage of Hotels: A Study of University Lecturers in Abia State, Nigeria
This paper examines twenty-three factors considered important in the selection and patronage of hotels by university lecturers in Abia State, Nigeria. Data were conveniently collected from 285 lecturers in the two government-owned universities in Abia State using self-administered questionnaire containing twenty-three choice statements. Principal component analysis reduced the twenty-three choice items to four factors namely, servicescape, service innovation, spatial layout and service quality. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and multiple regression. The results show that the four factors are important determinants of the choice of hotels by university lecturers in Abia State. Hotel owners and managers were therefore advised to continuously improve servicescape, service innovation, spatial layout and service quality of their hotels for sustainable customer selection and patronage.

Comparative analysis of the effect of attendance on academic performance of management and finance course students
The fact that attendance has a positive effect on the performance of students has been studied by many researchers. This paper provides some evidence on the assumption that the subject of finance requires more teacher-student interaction than the subject of management. Thus attendance and academic performance has more strong relationship for finance than for management subjects. The 170 responses collected from students were analyzed through OLS technique. A stronger positive relationship of attendance and performance was found for Finance as compared to Management. The findings can be applied for other subjects, keeping in view the technicality and non-technicality of the subjects. The limitation in the research has been the variability in the personality of teachers and also the students, which can be very difficult to measure correctly and thus the finding can be different in different scenarios.

Comparison of medical image and video segmentation using various algorithms
Image segmentation is an essential but critical component in low level vision image analysis, pattern recognition, and in robotic systems. It is one of the most difficult and challenging tasks in image processing which determines the quality of the final result of the image analysis. Image segmentation is the process of dividing an image into different regions such that each region is homogeneous. The problem of segmenting the image and/or the video content into meaningful pieces of information is of crucial importance for further steps such as 3-D shape reconstruction, object and event recognition, etc. Video segmentation is different from segmentation of a single image. While several correct solutions may exist for segmenting a single image, there needs to be a consistency among segmentations of each frame for video segmentation. Various image segmentation algorithms are discussed. Some examples in different image formats are presented and overall results discussed and compared considering different parameters.

Comparison of Vitamin E and Omega3 effects on oral dryness
To determine whether vitamin E and omega-3 supplementations could increase saliva production and reduce oral dryness, 60 patients with oral dryness received either vitamin E (n=30) or omega-3 (n=30) in a three month prospective clinical trial. There was a significant saliva volume increase in vitamin E group (p<0.001) before and after taking the supplementation; However no significant saliva volume change was seen in omega-3 group (p=0.999). In this study vitamin E supplementation was found to be significantly better than omega-3 and significantly effective to improve oral dryness.

Hence, a business enterprise has to be socially responsive so that a social balance is struck between the conflicting interests of business and society. The Social responsibility of business refers to what the business shall do, over and above the statutory requirement, prescribed by the government for the benefit of the society. The word responsibility connotes that the business has some moral obligations to the society. The government of India enacted many labour welfare and social security legislations to ensure social justice. The objective of the government is to provide good working ambiance to the labour force working in different environment and to improve their standard of living by the implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility by the corporate.
