It is said that the society prepares a crime and the criminal commits it. Again it is said that prevention is better than cure. From the first premise the government anywhere can help the youths by employment generation.This can be done through functional education.When youths are educated properly, they can become self employed in later life instead of recourse to crime thus reducing the incidents of crime in society.
Government can also build industries to absorb the teeming population.When people are gainfully employed incidents of crime can be reduced.Agricultural production is a good area of employment generation.The government can encourage the youths to engage in agriculture by giving soft loans to farmers.In so doing they make agriculture attractive to the youths and this will help to reduce crime rate.It is necssary to apply all the above mechanisms in order to prevent crime in society.The money used to effect the above solutions is really a good investment in human capital development.The youths are a good asset to government and no rational government can afford to allow her youths to be wasted away in criminal activities.
From the foregoing the crux of crime prevention lies in helping the youths to make the necssary social and economic adjustments to the society in which they find themselves.

उनितेद नातिओंस मिल्लेनियम देवेलोप्मेंट Goals
The Millenium Devlopment Goals are global approaches for the purpose of maintaining the health and happiness of the peoples of the world.It spans different facets of human life.The Millenium Development Goals in broad perspective are as follows.
1.To eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. 2.Promote gender equality and empower women. 3.Eradicate child mortality. 4.Improve maternal health. 5.Eradicate HIV/AIDS,malaria and other diseases. 6. Ensure environmental sustainabllity.7. Promote Global Partnership for Development and 8.To Achieve Universal Free Primary Education
The goals above are meant to ensure the health and happiness of the world.For number one the UN aims at catering for the poor nations whose citizens are living on less than $1.00 per day.To raise the standard of living of such people, the UN can do it by strong injections of monetary aid and encouraging sustainable agriculture.The United Nations programme of " Roll Back Malaria" and other related diseases is a case in point.This is how the UN is trying as a world body to eradicate or at least reduce the incidents of these diseases.

Computer Studies
What is a computer? A computer is a mechanical device that accepts data as input, processes the data and brings out information as output. For the purpose of processing information, every computer has the Central Processing Unit abbreviated to [ CPU ].THIS IS THE BRAIN OF THE COMPUTER structure, made up of electronic devices connected together.It has three parts.First is the heart of the system. This is the main memory where all data are being processed and the programmes controlling the computer are contained.Next, we have the Arithmetic Logic Unit.This aspect is for calculations and makes comparisons with logical operations between units of data.
Next is the controlling unit which controls the operations of all the hard ware as memory dictates in its programme capacity. The CPU is built in terms of its memory cpacity and the speed of the control per second [MIPS].
Data comes into the CPU through the input device such as terminal key board.From the
key board data is sent into the computer[CPU] for processing.Another input device is the mouse. By clicking the mouse data is sent into the computer for processing. Another input device is the scanner.By this device, information such as contained in any document like ID card can be sent into the computer exactly as it is to preserve its originality.The output devices include the monitor and the printer.When you print
out the information displayed in the monitor, then it is ready for your personal use.

Essentialism as Education Theory
Essentialism as Education Theory in the words of the following philosophers -- William Bagley, and Herman Horne states as follows:
A. Learning of its very nature involves hard work and often unwlling application.
B.The initiative in Education should lie with the teacher rather than with the pupil.
C. The heart of the educational process is the assimilation of prescribed subject matter.
D.The school should retain traditional methods of mental discipline.
The weakness in the above theories is that all activities are said to be concentrated on the teacher to the neglect of the participation aspect of the pupil. Learning experiences should be so modelled as to give enough room for pupils' activities. Again No D above talks about mental discipline . Mental discipline is important for the student but this must not be allowed to degenerate into rote learning. Again in assimilating the subject matter the pupils should not base their learning on cramming .Rather, the habit of constant revision will be used for much of personal study for the materials to be encoded in their long term memory.

The Perfective Aspect of Present Tense
In the last blog I explained that English has only two tenses morphologically speaking. These two tenses are present and past tenses.Today I am treating the perfective aspect of present tense, that is present tense, but perfective aspect. Aspect in English grammar will be discussed in my e-manual .
The following sentences show the present perfect tense so called. 1.He has broken the pot. 2. I have eaten the food.3 . Obi has drunk the water. 4. They have poured out the water. 5. He has bought a dictionary. 6. The mechanic has repaired the vehicle. 7. The tree has fallen down already. The seven sentences above show the the use of the present perfect to show a completed action with current relevance. Th reader should note that verbs in the present perfect tense must be in the past participle. Then the verb 'has' will be added to the main verb to form the perfect expression. For example in No 3 above, the verb ' drink' was used with the auxiliary verb ' has' to form the present perfect tense. Note again that the verb ' drink' is changed to the past participle 'drunk' to become ' Obi has drunk the water' which is the normal present perfect tense. So 'Obi drinks the water' becomes 'Obi has drunk the water' .

Benefits of Breast-feeding Your Child
There are many benefits inherent in breast-feesding your child. First, some antibodies against various micro organisms are transferred from the mother to the foetus via the placenta and help to protect the new infant against certain diseases, the most important of which is measles, during the first four to six months of life. It has long been recognized that the breast-fed infant against infections and particularly diarrhoeal diseases, and has a better chance of survival than a bottle-fed baby. Only fairly recently have reasons for this difference been established. These are:
Breast milk is clean.It is never strictly sterile, as their will be some contamination from the nipple. However, these bacteria have no time to multiply as the milk is drunk immediately.
Immunoglobulins, mainly IgA, are present in large amounts in colostrum and to a lesser extent in mature human milk. IgA is not absorbed but acts in the intestines against certain bacteria(e.g. E.coli) and viruses. Lactoferrin, a protein, which binds iron to itself, is found in human milk. The bound iron is then not available to certain harmful intestinal bacteria, which need it for their growth.For this reason, supplemental oral iron should not be given to breast-fed infants. (To be continued).
