Idiosyncrasy of Golding in lord of the flies
The notion of idiosyncrasy evolves around an author’s style of expressing concepts and ideas. Scrutinizing the idiosyncratic thoughts and concepts is indeed a significant consideration of analysing a work of art and literature. Every writer shows his or her uniqueness through the style he or she adapts while using a particular language which is common to many writers. Authors strive to imprint their identity through this style. For this, they try to exploit the common properties of the language and reshape it to suit their purpose. Golding’s Lord of the Flies is a novel (fable) where a variety of linguistic features are deployed in a significant way to suit the purpose of the text. It bears witness to the varied styles of Golding’s idiosyncrasy.

The attack from economic fluctuations to non-performing loan ratio of commercial banks
Based on Hodrick-Prescott filter for non-performing loan ratio of commercial banks and economic growth ratio, this paper set up VAR model, also analyze the impact from economic growth to the fluctuation of non-performing loan ratio of commercial banks. The result shows that the attack from economic growth to non-performing loan ratio achieves maximum after three quarters. From the conclusion, some measures for preventing and controlling banks’ systemic risk should be implemented, such as implementing counter-cyclical mechanism for the central bank, improving the export competitiveness for government, strengthening internal credit mechanism for commercial banks.

Sustainable and efficient organizations: the case of handcrafts micro-business in southern San Sebastian
This paper analyzes sustainability and efficiency of organizations committed to the exploitation’ activities of tule Thypha spp at the Zapotlán’s Lake taking into consideration the socioeconomic and environmental impact in the municipalities of Gómez Farías and Zapotlán el Grande. The initial hypothesis departs from the consideration of the scarce social capital of organizations that limits development’s sustainability. The research method employed is the ethnographic complemented with field work supported by informal interviews, documental and bibliographic research. The hypothesis of this research is proved empirically and confirms similar findings by the research conducted on the mainstream theory of social capital and its implications on economic development. The outcomes of the application demonstrate that the drama of economic efficiency and sustainable development of micro-business is tied to constrain of social capital. This finding has implications for the design and implementation of economic and social policies oriented towards the improvement of economic growth and sustainable development.

Glycemic index of home made dark chocolates
The glycemic index is a ranking of foods based on the post prandial blood glucose response compared with a reference food. Ten Healthy volunteers belonged to 35-60 years of age were recruited for the study. The glycemic response was found out before and after supplementation of test food and reference food. The blood sample was collected at zero, half an hour, one hour, one and half an hour and two hour intervals after giving 50g of glucose, 78 grams of Commercial Home Made Chocolate with 50 grams of carbohydrate and 200 grams of Developed Home Made Dark Chocolate (HMDC) samples containing 50 grams of carbohydrate. The blood sugar levels were measured in mmols/L using ascensia entrust diabetes care system. The glycemic index is calculated using the area under the curve (AUC) values. The subjects were healthy consuming sufficient amount of nutrients as recommended by Gopalan et al., 2007. Glycemic index and glycemic load value of the developed sample was. Thus the developed product was a low glycemic food compared to the standard product.

Quality evaluation of dosa from millet flour blend incorporated composite flour
The present investigation was done to prepare dosa using composite flour containing kodo and barnyard millet flour, whole wheat flour and defatted soy flour of four different combinations and to study the impact of millet flour blend incorporation on characteristics of dosa. The prepared dosa was characterized by analyzing physical properties, nutritional properties, organoleptic characteristics and in vivo glycemic load among ten normal and ten type 2 diabetic subjects. Results indicated that the diameter of dosa was increased with decrease in thickness; the spread ratio was increased significantly at p<0.001; and the weight of batter and dosa were decreased while increasing the incorporation of millet flour blend. The total carbohydrate, starch, and total sugar content were decreased; protein, amylose/amylopectin ratio and crude fiber content were increased significantly while increasing the incorporation of millet flour blend. As the millet flour blend ratio increased above 20%, most of liking and Just About Right (JAR) attributes especially on texture of dosa was decreased marginally. Organoleptically 30% level of incorporation was accepted. The glycemic index and glycemic load were decreased significantly while increasing the incorporation of millet flour blend. Thus the consumption of prepared dosa from composite flour will definitely pose a light to increase the nutritional security and decrease the incidence of double disease burden.

Quantifying GoS and QoS in CDMA cellular networks
To satisfy the ever increasing network capacity, cellular systems should operate effectively with good grade of service (GoS) and quality of service (QoS). This paper proposes a quantitative approach to measuring the GoS and QoS performance of CDMA systems. It studies a realistic CDMA system operating in Nigeria and obtains empirical data from the field. A multi-dimensional Markov chain model is derived using related parameters and simulated under ideal conditions. The performance metrics of interest include blocking probability, handoff failure probability and weighted cost for GoS, and loss of communication quality for QoS. Simulation results show that effective link adaptation policies can greatly improve the system’s performance.

Knowledge acquisition techniques: a comprehensive review
In many knowledge systems there are knowledge-acquisition (KA) techniques to help knowledge engineers and domain experts build and maintain the system’s knowledge base. These techniques can be classified in many ways. Some of this ways are kind of Knowledge which obtained, type of knowledge which captured, purpose of technique, tool type, out put and result of techniques. In this paper we compared different techniques according to above items, in a table. Also this table includes the description, strengths and weaknesses for each technique.
