The purpose of this paper is to use theme-based language instruction with ESL learners to facilitate language learning. Language learning here refers to expending existing vocabulary, writing sentences, participating in discussions and presenting orally.

Business to business barter exchange is a form of transaction that is gaining popularity during the economic downtown despite the fact that money exchange supersede the traditional barter exchange due to a number of inherent problems it has. This study explores the operation and user’s acceptance of business to business barter exchange in Malaysi

In this paper, a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is designed and used for such purpose. The network is used in conjunction with a self-tuning PID controller. The differential equation of Jenkine element is adopted for hysteresis modeling. The simulation results show that the proposed controller improves the system performance better th

Objective: Despite the availability of modern anti-emetics, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) symptoms remain distressing to a high number of cancer patients. This study intended to (1) describe the incidence of CINV and anti-emetic usage; (2) assess the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and correlate its components with Global H

Heavy metal contaminations in soil, water and air has become a major problem since the onset the industrial revolution. Among the heavy metals that are being studied, lead (Pb) is one of the highly persistent and widely distributed in the environment. This heavy metal contaminant can be transferred into the food chain, causing the bioaccumulation o

The toxicity of Pb, its widespread occurrence and persistence highlight the importance of remediation research. Phytoremediation becomes known as a potential remediation tool because it is technically and economically attractive, compared to conventional remediation technologies. However, there is a lack of Pb-related genes. Recently, annexin 1 (An

Toxic levels of heavy metals are increasingly posing threats to all organisms on earth. One possible remediation strategy involves the use of plants to remove toxic metals from contaminated soils. It is widely recognized that genetic improvement of plants with increased metal tolerance and uptake capacity would be required to enhance the practical

إن العدالة حكمة إلهية بها يتحقق مقتضى سنن الكون في الوجود لتجري نحو غايتها جميع الكائنات، وهي أيضاً قيمة الإنسانية بها يسود منهج الحق ويتحقق مقتضى سنن الشرع في المجتمعات. وهي أيصاً غاية أصلية �
