Political, economical, social, technological and SWOT analysis of beekeeping as a successful enterprise in India: An overview

Agriculture provides food for more than half of India's population. Entrepreneurial development among rural people is becoming more widely acknowledged as a strategy for overall rural community development. Rural people's entrepreneurial growth is increasingly being recognised as a strategy for achieving total rural community development. Beekeeping is an example of a successful agricultural business. By becoming entrepreneurs, beekeepers can increase their earnings and social capital. By boosting the income of rural beekeepers, reducing poverty, and protecting biological systems through pollination, entrepreneurial behavior contributes to sustainable development. The current review focuses on the several aspects of beekeeping as a profession on the core ideas of beekeeping entrepreneurship, its history, the distribution of honey-producing regions, and the wishes for its entrepreneurship development in India, as well as the important reasons for encouraging entrepreneurship. The current situation of beekeeping entrepreneurship in India, as well as the problems and opportunities it brings, were examined. This study examines the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) and Political, Economical, Social, and Technical (PEST) analyses of beekeeping as a business. As a result, the user is able to extensively research the market before beginning any new business. The focus of the review is on the business elements of beekeeping. In addition, the study highlights the beekeeping industry's future possibilities as well as the regulations sought by the Indian government.

BIOMECHANICAL STUDY OF MID-FLIGHT BODY SEGMENT ACTION AND ITS EFFECT ON HANG-TIME FOR VOLLEYBALL SPIKE JUMPS

This study examined pilot data exploring approaches to testing whether the existing explanation about the biomechanics of hang-time in a basketball jump shot proposed by Bishop and Hay (1979) is applicable for spike jumps in volleyball and to identifying possible additional factors that could have an influence on hang-time in volleyball. Kinematics of spike jumps of volleyball players (n=3) using a technique that would theoretically increase hang-time were compared to jumps using a technique that would theoretically decrease it. The results suggested that the mechanisms creating hang-time in volleyball spike jumps are not the same as those in a basketball jump shot. These results suggested that the leg contributions are different and that the motion of the trunk also contributes to hang-time

Diversification of Top-k Geosocial Queries

In this work, we investigate the problem of diversifying top-k geosocial queries. To do so, we model the diversification objective as a bi-criteria objective that maximizes both user diversity and geosocial proximity. Due to the intractability of the problem, discovering the ideal results is only possible for limited datasets. Consequently, we introduce two heuristic algorithms to address this challenge. Our experimental findings, based on real-world geosocial datasets, demonstrate that the proposed algorithms surpass existing methods in terms of runtime performance and accuracy.acceptedVersio

ANALYSIS OF SIMULATED ANNEALING BASED OPTIMIZATION OF HUMAN MOVEMENT FOR PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT

Technique is a defining feature of success in sport performance. In aerial phases of sport skills, in particular, it is the interplay among articulated body segments that optimizes the outcome. This interplay is characterized by intersegmental interactions during the projectile trajectory, the aerial phase, of the body’s center of mass. The purpose of this study was to examine mathematical optimization approaches to finding the best balance of intersegmental interaction and in that process maximizing the desired performance outcome. We compared optimization using two different search algorithms, brute-force and simulated annealing and found that using simulated annealing is an efficient way to search for optimal solutions for biomechanical problems

Brain MRI: a useful tool for screening of hypertensive patients for silent cerebro-vascular damage

Background: Worldwide hypertension is an important public-health challenge because of its high frequency and concomitant risks of cardiovascular, renal, cerebrovascular disease and death. Current guidelines for the management of hypertension mainly recommend the search for preclinical damage to the heart and kidneys. However, extending this search to other organs, for instance the brain, might improve risk stratification, might optimize antihypertensive therapy and might, in the end help to further reduce the burden of disease attributable to hypertension.Methods: 84 consecutive hypertensive patients with no target organ damage were enrolled in study to find out silent brain damage over a period of one year.Results: Mean body mass index (BMI) of the study population was 28.4±2.5 kg/m2 (range 23.2 to 35.3kg/m2). 33 (39.3%) subjects had white matter lesions. 13 (15.47%) study subjects were found to have vascular changes which included micro angiopathic changes, infarcts and reduced/slow blood flow. 33 (39.3%) subjects were found to have normal brain MRI in the study. Early brain MRI was found to be beneficial in patients who had uncontrolled blood pressure either due to lack of treatment or irregular use of anti-hypertensive treatment. This was true for every age group in general and particularly in subjects above the age of 50 years.Conclusions: The screening of hypertensive patients for silent cerebrovascular damage with brain MRI may be useful in stratifying the risk of future cerebrovascular disease

Extra-skeletal Ewing’s Sarcoma of Caecum Causing Intussusception: First such Reported Case

Introduction: Ewing’s sarcoma is a tumor of primitive cells which primarily affects long bones. Extra-skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma has been rarely reported in small bowel. Its presentation can be varied but it is an extremely unlikely cause of an Ileo-Colic Intussusception as seen in present case.Case Presentation: A 32 years old male patient presented with symptoms suggestive of bowel obstruction. CT scan was suggestive of Ileo-colic intussusception. Patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopy and right hemicolectomy. Histopathology examination of specimen revealed Ewing sarcoma of colon.Conclusion: Extra-skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma is a rare entity. To the best of our knowledge this is the first reported case in English literature, of a Caecal Ewing’s sarcoma causing Intussusception. Further study of such cases may help in better understanding and establishing treatment protocol for this condition

OPTIMIZATION OF HANG-TIME TECHNIQUE FOR VOLLEYBALL SPIKE JUMPS

In a previous study, we found that hang-time can have potential benefits on athlete performance during volleyball spikes, but hang-time usually comes at a cost of decreased peak height. To address this loss in peak height, we tested whether the trajectories of the "non-performing segments" (legs and non-hitting arm) can be modified to maximize the performance of the hitting arm without affecting the hang-time (defined by vertical motion of the head and trunk). The purpose of this study was to present details of an optimizer to facilitate a wide range of future studies aimed at maximizing performance. Using optimization we predict that for males the peak height of the hitting arm and its sagittal plane velocity at its peak can be increased by 52k11 mm (
