...institutions and organizations. Sociology is one of the social sciences, which use varying methods of investigation and critical analysis in order to develop knowledge that is related to human social activities, functions, and structures. Most of the sociologists conduct research, which is applied to welfare and social policy. Other sociologists base their focus on the refinement of theoretical understanding of the social processes. There are various areas that sociology focus on. They include social class, social stratification, race, culture, gender, sexuality, religion law as well as mobility. As there has been the interaction of social structures and individual based relations, sociology has expanded to include other areas such as medical, military, health, the Internet, and the role of social activity in developing scientific based knowledge. Social researchers use various techniques, which include quantitative and qualitative ones (Giddens and Griffiths, 2006). Social Imagination Social imagination is a form of insight provided by sociology. It is the understanding of the fact that social outcomes are based on the social actions, actors, and social context. This is the understanding that there are some things in the society that lead to certain outcomes. Sociological imagination is considered as the ability to see things socially, how they influence each other, and how they interact. For one to be said to have social imagination, they must show the ability to think in original...

It is a good sign of the gradual development of education here in the Philippines, this improvement was achieved with the help of different organizations (DepEd, CHED, TESDA and DOST) implemented and founded by the government.

...Psychological Operations (PSYOPs): A Conceptual Overview Sunil Narula Abstract The psychological dimension of a conflict is as important as its physical dimension and psychological Operations (PSYOPs) have become even more relevant in this age of information, especially for a nation-state where the threat in the socio-psychological domain is more pronounced. While combating the menace of terrorism, the psychological dimension assumes great significance, as terrorists use violence as a psychological weapon by terrorising the multitude, rather than physically affect a few, and in this sense, they fight a psychological war also. The relevance of psychological operations is much greater than the successful conduct of tactical operations. This article is an attempt to conceptualise the term PSYOPs in the Indian context. The changed dynamics of international relations following the end of the Cold War and changes in the South Asian strategic landscape, postSeptember 11, have made PSYOPs more relevant for the region. It is also important to know that differences between various related concepts like Propaganda, Information Warfare, and Perception Management are waferthin, and may lead to contested perceptions amongst various agencies working under the overall ambit of national security, if not viewed in the current perspective. Therefore, clarity of the concept will set the stage for an effective implementation of policies and help in setting up of a policy structure in India (which...

...Ten years ago, the only people who spent a majority of their leisure time on the computer were paid members of the technology industry. Today, however, surfing the Web has become a pastime as social and marketable as bar hopping or going to the movies. As the web has become a part of mainstream life, some mental health professionals have noted that a percentage of people using the web do so in a compulsive and out-of-control manner. In one extreme (1997) Cincinnati case, unemployed mother Sandra Hacker allegedly spent over 12 hours a day secluded from her three young and neglected children while she surfed the Web. For better or for worse, this phenomena of compulsive Internet use has been termed 'Internet Addiction' based on its superficial similarity to common addictions such as smoking, drinking, and gambling. Internet Addiction has even been championed as an actual disorder, notably by psychologists Kimberly Young, Ph.D and David Greenfield, Ph.D.. However, at this time the true nature of Internet Addiction is not yet determined. In a true addiction, a person becomes compulsively dependent upon a particular kind of stimulation to the point where obtaining a steady supply of that stimulation becomes the sole and central focus of their lives. The addict increasingly neglects his work duties, relationships and ultimately even his health in his drive to remain stimulated. In some cases of addiction (such as addiction to alcohol or to heroin), a phenomenon known as tolerance occurs...

...Arabic word 'Raham' meaning sympathy. They trace the term back to the ship wreck in 8th century AD. According to them, after the Arab ship wrecked near Ramree Island, Arab traders were ordered to be executed by Arakanese king. Then, they shouted in their language, 'Raham'. Hence, these people were called 'Raham'. Gradually it changed from Raham to Rhohang and finally to Rohingyas. However, the claim was refuted by Jahiruddin Ahmed and Nazir Ahmed, former president and Secretary of Arakan Muslim Conference respectively. They argued that ship wrecked Muslims are currently called 'Thambu Kya' Muslims and currently residing along the Arakan sea shore. Should the term Rohingya derive from these Muslims, "Thambu Kyas" would have been the first group to be known as Ruhaingyas. According to them, Rohingyas were descendants of inhabitants of Ruha in Afghanistan. Another historian, MA Chowdhury argued that among the Muslim populations, the term 'Mrohaung' (Old Arakanese Kingdom) is corrupted to Rohang. And thus inhabitants of the region are called Rohingya. History Although Muslim settlements have existed in Arakan since the arrival of Arabs there in the 8th century AD, there is no clear connection between these early Arabs and the Rohingya,...

...Executive Summary The following report will determine the strategic position of Rolls-Royce and the environmental impact of a new technology upon that strategic position. The report will analyse and evaluate the role and impact of short to medium range single aisle narrow body aircraft on the strategic position of Rolls-Royce. The report will focus on the civil aerospace business of Rolls-Royce and will use Rolls-Royce Inchinnan as a base model. The Boeing 737 series and Airbus A320 are the most popular aircraft ever produced with a 737 landing in the world every five seconds. The 737 in particular will reach the end of its service life within the next ten years. Southwest airlines are requesting an overdue replacement with most airframes living thirty years, the original 737 was released in 1967. The effect of the next generation 737, released in 1998, retiring will leave a considerable gap to be filled. Rolls-Royce does not power the Boeing 737which is monopolised by Pratt and Whitney and General Electric. Should Rolls-Royce attain a share of this market it will become the largest contract ever undertaken by Rolls-Royce. The new aircraft is currently under development and is expected to form the latest of aerospace technology such as composite structures, geared turbofans or open rotor designs. All of the large aerospace manufacturers are currently vying for involvement in the programme for should the new edition emanate the previous, the returns will be substantial...

In any case, international criminal activities are largely based geopolitical factors rather than the genuine purpose of ending human to human barbarism. This paper will attempt to prove that ‘global community’ commitment to end genocide events is categorically challenged by lack of sufficient devotion to ‘the pledge’ to eradicate the vice. The paper is structured into three main parts and one secondary part. The background will attempt to examine the scholarly effort attempting to relate the basis of global community pledge and the general act of genocide. A further sub category of this part will introduce the role played by United Nations in minimizing genocide. The second section will be substantial in analyzing past genocide events; courtesy of three relevant examples, Cambodia, Sri Lanka and Rwanda. In this section, the document will examine the various roles played by United Nations in fueling the genocide.

...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY. Pregnancy is the state of being pregnant. It is also defied as a situation where by a woman or female animal having a baby or an egg or a young animal developed inside her baby. Unwanted pregnancy on the other hand means the pregnancy which occurs as a result of illegal in evolvement in sexual intercourse by both sexes. It is said to be unwanted or illegal because both sexes have not been legally united either by law or Religions doctrine or authorities under the caption of marriage. Abortion is believed to be a deliberate ending or termination of a pregnancy at an early state. Marriage is said to be a relationship between a husband and a wife to live or co-husband as such for life Thus early marriage could be seen as any marriage contracted unintentionally or that which is contracted by way of duress or undue influence. Unfortunately, most young girls in secondary school in Nigeria today see to it that sex is a golden slice or a do or die affair and as such when at their dangerous stages or period, they still fail to keep boys or man at arm’s length which at long last leads to unexpected pregnancy. Hence proper arrangements or precautionary measure not put in place as regards such pregnancies. The next idea as the only option that readily come to their winds at this point is abortion through any means which most of the time take their lives or endanger lives in such situations. Norststill, most girls in secondary...
