The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of two different training interventions (Intermittent versus Continuous training) on semi-professional male football Player's speed, jump and repeated-sprint ability. Thirty players were divided into an intermittent training group (INT, n=15, age=21.7±4.7, height=175.3±5.2cm, weight=68.9±4.8kg) and a continuous training group (CONT, n=15, age=20.6±5.1, height=174.9±5.9cm, weight=69.2±7.2kg) . The study lasted for 10 weeks and consisted of 20 minutes per training session in physical conditioning following either CONT or INT training guidelines. The players were tested 3 times during 1st, 5th, and 10th week of the season. Testing consisted of 15m and 30m sprint time, squat-jump and countermovement jump height and Bangsbo modified sprint test. Two-way repeated measures ANCOVA showed that INT was faster than CONT in the 5th and 10th weeks for the squat jump, 15m, 30m and Bangsbo Modified sprint test and that INT recovered better from than CONT, result suggest that both training interventions able to maintain initial values of speed and jump. However, the INT exhibit larger improvements in repeated-sprint ability. Therefore, the power endurance training (intermittent high intensity exercise) may be more beneficial to prepare football players according to the game cardiovascular and metabolic specific determinants.

The small-scale sector has grown rapidly over the years. The growth rates during the various plan periods have been very impressive. The number of small-scale units has increased from an estimated 0.87 million units in the year 1980-81 to over 3 million in the year. When the performance of this sector is viewed against the growth in the manufacturing and the industry sector as a whole, it instills confidence in the resilience of the small scale sector. This paper would study the role of SME s in Indian Economy and its contribution to the economic development of the country as a whole. FDI plays an important role in any country's economical activities. Companies big or small cannot solely depend on the conventional source of finance all together.

The growing integration of economies and societies around the world has been one of the most important and debated topics in international economics over the past few years. Rapid growth and poverty reduction in China, India, and other countries that was poor 20 years ago, has been a positive aspect of Liberalization Privatization and Globalization (LPG). But Globalization has also generated significant international opposition over concerns that it has increased inequality and environmental degradation. There is a need to study the impact of globalization on Indian economy from the viewpoint of inward foreign direct investment through the export and import which is made by India. Attention should also be focused on the role which some developing countries, particularly from parts of Asia and Latin America, are playing as initiators of globalization through their own MNCs. India opened up the economy in the early nineties following a major crisis that led by a foreign exchange crunch that dragged the economy close to defaulting on loans. The response was a slew of domestic and external sector policy measures partly prompted by the immediate needs and partly by the demand of the multilateral organization. The new foreign trade policy and Exim policy regime radically pushed forward in favour of a more open and market oriented economy. This paper explores the contours of the on-going process of Globalization, Liberalization and Privatization. Throughout this paper, there is an underlying focus on the impact of LPG on Indian economy.

Parent child relationship & adjustment are a major concern for the present scenario of school organizations. Both these directly influence the achievement motivation of school students. Many problems increase if they do not adjust in school environment such as lack of educational, social, emotional adjustment & lack of good parent child relations.

The sample constituted of 200 students studying in 9th & 10th classes of govt. schools of Haryana. Out of these 100 are from rural & 100 from urban schools & their age ranging from 14-16 years. Tools used were adjustment inventory for school students (AISS), parent child relationship scale (PCRS) & DEO- Mohan achievement scale. On the basis of the findings it was found that some dimensions of parent child relationship such as rejecting, symbolic punishment & object punishment have significant negative correlation with adjustment. Achievement motivation is not correlated with parent child relationship.

Economist and policymakers have observed that demographic factors both intrinsic as well as extrinsic like age, gender, marital status, qualifications, occupation, annual income , geographic location etc have an impact on the level of risk that investors take further based on their behavioral and decision making aspect. Assessing one's risk tolerance, however, can be tricky. One must consider not only how much risk he can afford to take but also how much risk he can stand to take. An investor's ability to handle risks may be related to individual characteristics such as age, time horizon, liquidity needs, portfolio size, income, investment knowledge etc. This study critically examines the impact of a single vital and social statistics of human population i.e., risk preferences on the investment decision of investors in Rajasthan.
