The experimental results obtained show that the 28-day compressive strength values of the 12% cinder blocks and those of the 10% cement Btcs are respectively 2.55MPa and 7.90MPa. These values are in accordance with the normative values recommended by the Building Materials Centre (CMC) in N\'Djamena (2.4MPa) and the Land Materials Research Centre (Craterre) (5MPa). In the presence of moisture, the loss of resistance is only 28% for BTC and 46% for cinder blocks. Also, the bricks have a suction capacity ranging from 2.50 to 5.02g/cm² S1/2 for BTC and 6.12 to 10.90g/cm². S1/2 for cinder blocks. These values are all less than 20g/cm². S1/2, a value imposed by NF P 554. A comparison of the results of this work shows that, with the same cement content, during dry seasons as in rainy seasons, BTCs are more resistant and more economical than cinder blocks.<#LINE#>Olivier M. and Mesbah A.

To identify areas where benefited from the flood protection, 100-year, 200-year and 500-year of riverine flooding and previous hurricanes data were adopted for Gwinnett county and Glynn county, respectively. HAZUS 4.2 (Hazard United States) (FEMA, 2018), and ArcGIS 10.5 (Aeronautical Reconnaissance Coverage Geographic Information System) were used to identify the flooded areas, and this study evaluates the vulnerability of essential facilities (i.e., treatment plants and electric power facilities). It is observed that several wastewater treatment plants in Gwinnett County could be impacted by at least the100-year flood. The electrical power facilities in Glynn County are also found to be vulnerable to hurricanes. This evaluation can be used as the first step to develop more resilient counties by having better preparedness, Stormwater Management Plan, and more organized responses to flood events.<#LINE#>Hallegatte S.

In corporate finance, the crucial argument is the impact of financial leverage on firms′ strategic decisions. Thus, the debate still prevails as how to minimize the agency costs while maximizing the firm value.Additionally, value of firm is gauged by all stake holders which reflect the value of business. The aim of this research is to appraisethe impact of financial leverage on value of firm. The paper attempts to analyse the debt patterns over time and its impact on firm value reflected in market to book ratio using information on publicly traded firms in India. The study involves ratio analysis and multiple regression method to arrive at the results. Empirical findings on the firms related to metal and metal products in India suggest that there is no mean reverting tendency in debt ratios over time. Instead, debt is increasing to unsustainable levels accompanied by poor governance leading to potential disruption in industry. Besides, leverage has negative impact on firm value contradicting traditional trade off theory.<#LINE#>Report (2019).@Indian brand equity foundation (IBEF).@report accessed at https://www.ibef.org/download/metals-and-mining-jan-2019.pdf on 07/03/2019@No$Bussiness Line (2019).@Steel, infra companies in RBI′s big-debtor list.@https://www.thehindubusinessline.com /money-and-banking/steel-infra-companies-in-rbis-bigdebtor-list/article9728833.ece@No$Modigliani F. and Miller M.H.

In the present work we have employed Gamow′s theory for evaluating the decay rates of cluster emitters. The T1/2 of the cluster depends on the penetration probability. In this present work the square well model is modified by smoothening the value of the potential inside the nucleus which we will call as S-potential. The modification was made in the model by taking two points δ and ζ, where δ corresponds to the radius of the cluster nuclei and ζ corresponds to the Q value. We show that the calculated half-lives are in good match with the experimental T1/2 within one order of magnitude. Gamow′s theory has been experimentally verified using Geiger-Nuttall (G.N.) law. G.N. Law holds true for cluster decay using S-Model as can be seen by our calculations. A plot between the Q (MeV) and T1/2(sec) of cluster is found to be linear. To our surprise the S-potential (Smoothened) gives a better match the experimental data as compared to Viola Seaborg method.<#LINE#>Sandulescu A., Poenaru D.N. and Greiner W.

In the lap of nature this city is blessed with exquisite flora and fauna and comparatively with its neighboring metropolitan region of Mumbai it has been a slow in development of infrastructure , which is one of the main reasons behind the huge numbers of birds seeking refuge in this heaven of a place. The climate here is tropical in nature and suits well for a number of birds and animals. The town is blessed with an abundance of wetlands, mud pits, grasslands, marshy swamps and mangroves widespread across the coastal regions. There are a few hilly areas and dense forests too. Located approximately 61kms from Mumbai, Virar; has become a safe haven for wading birds because of its rich natural water and food source. Birds (waders especially) migrating above this town usually land here for a few months and some decide to become migratory- residents as well, because of the abundance of wetlands and grasslands. They nest here; some have even started breeding here and now – a day′s one can spot birds here in their multiple forms i.e. right from being a juvenile – to their breeding plumage state -- to their fully grown mature state. The soil here is rich in Nitrate and wetlands are filled with crabs, bees, frogs, snails, fishes, underwater plants, algae, earthworms, mangrove trees in the salty marshy mud pits and trees with fruit(berries like black currant , white currant etc.) and flowers. Foraging food out of this nutritional soil is very easy for birds as they have complete safety here as only a few or none of humans visit the wetlands. Rice fields in between the patches of wetlands create a perfect hideout for these birds giving them complete privacy and safety from predation by other larger birds of prey. Over the past few years there has been a substantial increase in the numbers of the migratory birds. The main reason behind this is the better air quality and less pollution than the major cities located nearby. Birds here are able to scavenge food very easily as they don′t have to fight for it due to its abundance. Thus they are getting healthier and growing perfectly in an unmonitored environment. Over the past 2 decades many birds have visited and migrated here in huge number of flocks and the numbers are increasing every year with newer species coming to visit every year. As the wetlands remain untouched by humans and no heavy construction or expansion of urban life is being imposed on the birds. They have their independence here to fly, forage and live uninterruptedly. Before 2019 there has been no record yet of Black-headed ibis sitting in the rice fields and grasslands of Virar. This year was the first ever year they decided to visit and stay; and documented record shots were taken of their arrival.<#LINE#>Tiwari J.K. and Rahmani A.R.

Numerous policies have been formulated for promoting education in India and as fundamental rights, inclusive education is considered and affirmed in Indian constitution, Part IX, Article 45. Teachers are essential component to ensure quality environment for inclusive classroom. National Curriculum Framework for Teacher Education (2009) emphasized on equality and learners′ achievements are determined by teacher competence, skills and knowledge. With increased complexity in educational environment, teachers are facing various challenges which require theoretical and practical knowledge of teachers to shape potential behaviour of learners. Teachers with experience of teacher training program should be skilled in teaching learner with or without disability in same classroom environment. But still, inclusive education is not a compulsory component of teachers′ education curriculum due to which they lack in opportunity of dealing with multiple disabilities. As inclusive education is inadequately addressed in teachers′ educational program, the pre- service training also provide only theoretical knowledge of inclusive education but not the practical skills related to handling special needs children within inclusive set up. The recent trend of special education is integrated as well as inclusive education which indicated a need to reorient the common teacher training programme. The New Education Policy (2016) also focused on reviewing the B.Ed. regular programs related to inclusive education in order to have quality education. So in order to have effective inclusive classroom, there is a need to change the current approaches in theoretical educational curriculum for teachers and more focus should be given to practical part of inclusive education.<#LINE#>UNESCO (1994).@The Salamanca Statement and Framework for Action on Special Needs Education.@Paris: UNESCO.@Yes$Singh Y.P. and Aggarwal A.
