Abstract 
The nutritional status of both children and adolescents must have high priority in human development. The nutritional status of fewer than five children is an important health indicator for assessing the health status of entire population and one of the major predictors of child survival. The present article aims to assess the nutritional status of fewer than five children in Kerala based on anthropometric measures of physical growth. The study is based on secondary data. It was observed that malnutrition is the major concern in the child health in Kerala. The percentage of stunted (low height-for-age) children under five in Kerala has declined whereas; the percentage of wasted (low weight-for height) children has risen. The percentage of underweight (low weight-for-age) children has almost remained the same. The problem of anemia is also increasing in Kerala.

Abstract
Speech technology is one of the fastest growing modern engineering technology with a wide scope for application in various arenas and disciplines of life. It has many potential benefits and is useful to people in many walks of life. Nearly 20% of people of the world are suffering  from various disabilities; many of them are blind or unable to use their hands effectively. The speech recognition systems in those particular cases provide a significant help to them, so that they can share information with people by operating computer through voice input. This project isdesigned and developed keeping that factor into mind, and a little effort is made to achieve this aim. This proposed project is capable to recognize the speech and convert the  input audio into text; it also enables a user to perform operations such as “open and close applications and windows, select text, media controls, read text, system termination, social interaction” etc. by providing voice input. It also  helps the user to open different system software such as opening MS-paint, notepad and calculator. At the initial level effort is made to provide help for basic operations as discussed above, but the software can further be updated and enhanced in order to cover more operations.
Keywords—MS-paint; Speech Recognize; VO; Audio into Text; HMM; MFCC;

Full text | Abstract | Purchase | References | Request permissions

Abstract
The town of Kanchipuram is well knownas Silk City because almost of its population is dependent upon the silk
industry. Skilled and semi-skilled weavers from neighbouring towns like Salem, Arani, Coimbatore and Kumbakonam are also involved in the production of silk sarees. India is the world’s second largest producer of silk, contributing roughly 18% of the total world production of silk. In India, silk production is concentrated mainly in South India. Kanchipuram is a significant producer of silk in South India. Initially, this industry was dominated by a handful of merchants who used to procure sarees from the local weavers and sell them. This system was disadvantageous to the weavers, who did not receive just compensation for their labour. In the year 1949, the first cooperative society of weavers was formed, called the Kamatchi Amman Society. This society consisted of 79 weavers, who were provided financial support and several other benefits. Over the course of time, more and more co-operative societies were formed. Today, there is about 24 cooperative  societies, most of which are managed by the Tamilnadu government. Some of the reputed co-operative societies of weavers are the Kamatchi Amman Silk Society, Murugan Silk Society, Varadharaja Swamy Silk Society and others. The Kamatchi Amman Society now has about 2000 members and is one of the biggest. Totally, there are about 50,000 weavers who work through various cooperative societies. The current study tries to analyze various financial problems encountered by the silk industry. The approach of the study has been from the point of view of financial issues and revival of silks, considering the enormity of silk industry.

Abstract 
Human resources play a crucial role in the development process of modern economics. Arthur Lewis observed, “There are great differences in development between  countries which seem to have roughly equal resources, so it is necessary to enquire into the difference in human behavior.” It is often felt that though the exploitation of natural resources, availability of physical and financial resources and international aid play prominent roles in the growth of modern economies, none of these factors is more significant than efficient and committed manpower. It is in fact said that all development comes from the human mind. This study is an attempt to find out the efficiency of personnel management practices in TNSTC in Pudukkottai District which is the present research region.
Keywords: personnel management, human resources and organization.

The economic growth that India has witnessed over the last few years resulted in rapidly rising transport needs. 
Simultaneously concerns are being raised the sustainability of the transport factor in the country by a significant and rising share in emissions, both global and local. Whenever the transport system is highly utilized there is a possibility to access health care, education and fulfills other basic needs. In the case of passenger road transport, meeting mobility requirements efficiently and addressing environmental and developmental concerns require a great attention to the efficient personnel management. Personnel Management practices followed in TNSTC Ltd. were found satisfactory. The succession of organization is purely depended on  employees’ comfort and satisfaction. Hence the employees’ needs and wants should be fulfilled by the organization for its success.
Framing ideal policies and proper practices for employees are essential for an organization to make them suitable for contributing more for the succession of organization. Relationship between management and employees may face conflicts and it may lead for some bad consequences like low productivity, loss in organization economy, high rate of labor turnover and loss of reputation etc. Organization management is a priceless asset for higher production and effective service. Hence almost all the fields in developed countries are recognizing their human resource by and large extent. It is a great blessing to the nation. Transport Corporation is mostly related with employee’s effort and associated with their output for corporation. There is no doubt that employees will deserve for awards and rewards for their services when they follow the suggestions discussed above. Therefore the corporation should focus more on the above aspects that influence the personnel
management practices.

integration has had many effects on the  production structure of national economies, the role of multinational corporations, Foreign Direct Investment, Interdependence between all Nations of this world etc. Trade is an essential part of economic development. The establishment of WTO is an important milestone in the history of
international trade. India played an important role in establishment of GATT and then in establishment in WTO. India became the member of GATT in 1947 and started to play its part and now it‟s an active member of WTO, the replacement of GATT, which came into effect on 1st January 1995 in Uruguay Round. India is very favor of
governance of international trade which is based on international rules and regulations. It believes that trade will not only benefit its economy but will also benefit all 134 members. When developing countries were liberalizing and expanding their economies, they felt the need for better export opportunities. The W.T.O. provides
opportunities to the developing countries to grow and expand their business.

Abstract 
Terrorism can be defined as the actual use or threat to use of violence by a group of  people to achieve some political goals. It is usually employed against a government  but sometimes another group, class, or party can be its target. Terrorism believes in the indiscriminate use of violence or threat of violence to create an ambience of fear or helplessness. Although terrorism is a form of violence it is different from ordinary violence. The target is the
immediate victim. In terrorism the most important result is not the physical injury or material damage caused to the direct victims but the psychological effect produced on the ultimate target. Terrorism is to be considered as a crime against the humanity, so it should be brought under the concept of Universal jurisdiction.
Similarly State should take legal measures to adopt terrorism as an  extraditable offence.
