The contribution of trade unions to promotion of employee performanceAlexander Decker
The document discusses a study that evaluated the contribution of the Universities' Academic Staff Union (UASU) to promoting employee performance at Egerton University in Kenya from the perspective of UASU officials. The study found that UASU's activities positively influenced various aspects of employee performance such as wage rates, morale, terms of service, job commitment, individual output, training, and organizational practices. It also positively affected union performance. However, some challenges were faced including victimization of officials and social factors. The officials were generally satisfied with UASU's contribution to improving employee performance.
Effect of phytobiocides in controlling soft rot of tomatoAlexander Decker
Turmeric was the most effective phytobiocide for controlling soft rot of tomato caused by Erwinia carotovora carotovora in both laboratory and screen house experiments. In laboratory tests, turmeric produced the largest zone of inhibition against the bacteria, followed by neem and garlic. In screen house studies, tomato plants treated with turmeric grew taller and produced more fresh shoot weight than those treated with other phytobiocides or the control, indicating turmeric was best at controlling the disease and promoting plant growth. Specifically, turmeric treated plants reached 61.67 cm in height and produced 35.68 g of fresh shoot weight, more than any other treatment.

This document discusses different types of online advertising strategies and their influence on consumer buying behavior. It begins by defining online/e-advertising and some common online advertising methods like banner ads, social media advertising, and email marketing. It then describes three main types of online advertising strategies: banner advertising, animated banner ads, interactive banner ads, and transactional banner ads. The document aims to examine the relationship between environmental responses and emotional responses to advertising as independent variables, and their impact on consumer buying behavior as the dependent variable.
1 tetralinyl as carboxamide-protecting group for asparagineAlexander Decker
This document describes research on using 1-tetralinyl as a carboxamide-protecting group for asparagine in the solid-phase peptide synthesis of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a nonapeptide hormone involved in childbirth and milk production. The researchers synthesized oxytocin on a resin using Boc chemistry with various amino acid side chains protected. They developed a one-pot reaction to simultaneously cleave the peptide from the resin, remove protecting groups, and form the cysteine disulfide bond. Using 1-tetralinyl to protect the asparagine side chain, they obtained oxytocin in 56% yield after cleavage and isolation.
Role of nawab salimullah for the foundation of aimlAlexander Decker
Nawab Salimullah played a pivotal role in the foundation of the All Indian Muslim League (AIML) in 1906. He began his political career in East Bengal supporting the partition of Bengal to benefit Muslims in the region. After the partition, he recognized the need for a national Muslim political organization to protect Muslim interests against Hindu opposition. Nawab Salimullah led initiatives to establish AIML, such as organizing Muslim public opinion, corresponding with Muslim leaders, publishing a circular letter, and financing an educational conference. He helped Muslims understand the need to organize politically on an all-India level. As one of AIML's founders and its first vice president, Nawab Salimullah played a significant role
Studying the scientific state of students using the adjusted residualsAlexander Decker
This document discusses using adjusted residuals to analyze contingency tables and determine which cells contribute most to the significance of the chi-square statistic. It provides definitions for key terms like contingency table and adjusted residuals. The document also presents an example analysis of survey data on students' academic performance using adjusted residuals. Several contingency tables are constructed relating performance to variables like sex, parents' education levels, family income, and family size. Adjusted residuals are calculated for significant tables to identify cells driving the relationships between variables. The analysis found cells relating to mothers' education had a greater impact on performance than fathers' education.
Corporate turn around strategies by financially distressedAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a research study on corporate turnaround strategies used by financially distressed companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange from 2002-2008. The study found that the most common strategy used was employee layoffs (63% of companies), followed by asset restructuring (50% of companies). Debt restructuring and top management changes were the least used strategies. Restructuring strategies were more intensive in the year of distress and less so in subsequent years, presumably to address immediate liquidity issues. The document provides context on definitions of financial distress, factors influencing bankruptcy risk, and previous literature on turnaround strategies.
A fuzzy analytical hierarchy model for solid wasteAlexander Decker
This document describes a fuzzy-analytical hierarchy model developed for selecting solid waste management locations in South-West Nigeria. It considers five main criteria and sixteen sub-criteria to evaluate three location alternatives - Eleyele, Moniya, and Iyana Ofa. Using fuzzy extent analysis, the model calculates the performance of each alternative based on pairwise comparisons of criteria. The results show Iyana Ofa has the highest performance at 0.385, indicating it should be selected as the landfill location. The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process reduces imprecision in decision makers' assessments, making it an accurate and reliable decision support system for solving multi-criteria location problems.
This document summarizes a research paper that investigates authorship attribution on short historical Arabic texts using naive Bayes classification. It uses a dataset of 30 short texts written by 10 ancient Arabic authors, with an average of about 550 words per text. Various lexical and character n-gram features are extracted from the texts and used to train a naive Bayes classifier to attribute the texts to their authors. The results show that the naive Bayes classifier achieves high accuracy of up to 96% using 1-gram word level features, demonstrating its effectiveness for authorship attribution even with limited training data from short texts.

This document discusses how art served as a form of expression and motivation during times of oppression in the Arab world. It provides three key points:
1. Art reflected the suffering of Arab generations who endured long years of waiting under dictatorships for freedom and historic change. Figures like Ahmed from Tunisia, who said "we've grown old waiting," became symbols of this frustration.
2. Art both expressed the problems under repression, and motivated aspirations for unity and a better future. Performances and songs called for issues like Arab unity.
3. However, dictators tightly controlled art to prevent any criticism or encouragement of dissent. Intelligence agencies monitored artists and changed or censored their works. As a result,
