Aims and Objectives The Centre was established to cover development oriented research, training and teaching on survival, adaptation and productivity of mountain plants. Thus the major objectives of the Centre |
are: - To undertake fundamental and applied studies on mountain plants. - To undertake studies on conservation of endangered plant species. - To set up demonstration units. - Teaching and |
information diffusion. - Framework of functioning The activities of the Centre are organized under following groups: - Seed biology and physiology of reproduction in threatened/endangered species and wild edibles. - |
Biomass production potential in mountain plant species. - Physiology and biochemistry of adaptation in high altitude plants. Training and Teaching - Ph.D. programme in the proposed fields of research. - |
Environmental Plant Biology course at M.Phil. level. - Post Graduate Diploma in Biotechniques of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants. - Certificate Course on Biotechniques of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants. - Short |
term orientation course in nursery practices, plant form and functions, conservation of medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) and environmental management. - To develop package of practices for the cultivation of |
endangered MAPs and mountain - Establishment of nursery and demonstration units. - Demonstration unit on revegetation of wasteland in mountains. - Publication and consultation in relevant fields. The Centre has |
its Main Building and Laboratory at Srinagar Garhwal and Field Station at Tungnath. The main building at Srinagar has an analytical laboratory (800 sq.m), four glass houses and a net |

What it is: White blood cells play a role in reducing inflammation in the body. A high white blood cell count could mean that there is inflammation somewhere in the |
body, such as can occur in the gastrointestinal tract of people who have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The white blood cell (WBC) count is also sometimes known as a leukocyte |
count or white count. A WBC count is typically done along with another common blood test, the complete blood cell count (CBC). A WBC count is the number of white |
blood cells per volume of blood, and is reported in either thousands in a microliter or millions in a liter of blood. What it's used for: A high WBC count |
can be an indicator of an infection, inflammation, or allergy. Some conditions may cause a decrease in the WBC count. Leukocytosis is the presence of an elevated WBC count; leukopenia |
is a decreased WBC count. Leukocytosis may be caused by several conditions including bacterial infection, inflammation, leukemia, trauma, or stress. Leukopenia may occur as a result of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, |
or immune system disorders. How it's done: A blood sample will be taken, normally from the arm. If several tests are ordered, more than one vial of blood will be |
taken. The normal range for WBC count is 4,300 to 10,800 cells per cubic millimeter (cmm) or 4.3 to 10.8 x 109 cells per liter. A range of 11 to |

Mobile pastoralists the world over are the subject of an unusually large number of myths and misconceptions. These misconceptions have led to inadequate, often hostile, development policies and interventions which have erected major barriers to sustainable land management and have entrenched pastoral poverty. In order ... |

In recent years there has been a growing consensus that pastoral poverty is rooted in the social, economic and political margina... |
is widely accepted that in rangelande environments, mobility is a pre-requisite for effective natural resource use, and it is understood that failure to support mobility of pastoralists has resulted in service delivery failure. Yet the underlying, and usually under recognized, reality is that pastoralism is also a cons... |

Mario Schenberg, Brazil’s most important theoretical physicist, who researched the formation of supernova stars, was born in Recife on this date in 1914.

retirement by presidential decree and was jailed for several months (his second jailing for communist activism).

A young person named K. asks Yahoo, How do I go about writing a research paper on the JFK assassination? What would President John F. Kennedy have thought about the |
enigmatic circumstances of his murder? Fifty years later, I think we don’t ask this question often enough. Instead we argue about what Rachel Maddow and Bill O’Reilly think. Media criticism |
is important, but it is no substitute for historical analysis. There are certainly other ways to think about the story. Counterfactually, for example. Imagine JFK had survived the gunfire in |
Dealey Plaza. What would he have said about its causes? Kennedy, of course, did not have time to comment on the gunfire that claimed his life, other than to say, |
after a bullet struck him in the back, “My God, I’m hit.” But that exclamation illuminated his instantaneous awareness of a lethal situation. JFK had been a soldier/sailor in World |
War II. Twenty years before he had faced gunfire. He had seen men die from it. He knew that he had been shot. Before he could say anything more another |
bullet struck him in the head, fatally wounding him. That was not inevitable. Earlier this month Rachel Maddow told the little-known story of how Senator John F. Kennedy introduced legislation |
to ban the importation of weapons produced for foreign armies, only to be thwarted by pro-gun legislators. Then, on November 22, 1963, Maddow said, Lee Oswald used an Italian-made military |
rifle to shoot and kill President Kennedy. For the popular MSNBC anchor, this story illuminates the enduring and pernicious effects of the gun lobby from Dallas to Newtown. As a |
contemporary polemic, this novel interpretation of JFK’s assassination — the Gun Lobby Did It — is strong. As history it is weak. It’s hard not to agree with Maddow’s broad |
point: the gun manufacturers and gun violence have had a pernicious effect on American life for a long time. She is correct that an Italian-made rifle, cheap and easily obtained |
under permissive U.S. gun laws, played a central role in the JFK assassination story. But her implication that the gun lobby, as a power sector in American politics, was an |
important causal factor in enabling JFK’s assassination is not founded in historical fact. Read more A lot of people at the scene of the crime thought so. But don’t take |
