What cause deleted excel files? Most common reason as follow: deleted accidentally, reformat set and so on.
Your files can be recovered because when you delete a file, it is not completely erased from your device. It still exists on the device’s internal memory allowing you or someone else to recover the files using recovery software.
The reason why these files are not completely erased from your device’s storage after you delete them is very simple. It is very easy and less time consuming for your device to delete a file’s pointer and make its space as available. It is however very difficult and time consuming for the device to completely overwrite the data. Therefore Android and other systems opt for the easily and fast deletion of the file’s pointer rather than deleting the file itself.
Step1: Download and Launch Fonedog.
Step2: Select file you want to recover to scan.
Step3: Recover deleted excel files from your Android.
Thanks for sharing. Nice post. I think you need to use Android File Recovery. It can find the deleted excel file on your phone and then recover it for you.
If you haven't backed them up,you may depend on professional data recover program,Mobikin Doctor for Android,which can scan the deleted data and list them on windows.Then you can choose what you want to recover.

Press TV has conducted an interview with Colin Cavell, author and lecturer from Bluefield, about the Al Khalifah regime’s continued crackdown on opposition figures in Bahrain, while the international community keeps mute.
Press TV: Essentially there’s been this major and incessant crackdown going on before the international community’s eyes, basically turning a Nelson’s eye on the deplorable situation of democracy in Bahrain. But what can you tell us about the baseless allegations that the ruling Al Khalifah dynasty is fabricating to further crackdown on, let’s say, public dissent and the process of democracy in the country?
Cavell: Guilt or innocence has nothing to do with the charges in Bahrain. What the Al Khalifah regime is doing is sending the message to the international community that the Shias are agents of Iran, are terrorists, and that they must be locked up, they must be tortured or worse. And what the Al Khalifah regime has done is [it has] locked up not only Shia opposition leaders, but as well Sunni opposition leaders like Ibrahim Sharif. They have locked up in the entire opposition leadership from Dr. Abduljalil al-Singace to Abdulhadi al-Khawaja to his daughter Zainab al-Khawaja and her baby, they even lock up children. There’s over 220 arrests of children in the past year.
This regime is trying to maintain itself in the international eye by claiming that a large part of its citizenry, the Shias, are terrorists, but when I look at democracy, democracy says majority rule and if the majority are against the government that means the government is a small minority and no one likes it.
Press TV: And let’s imagine that the Al Khalifah regime actually succeeds in stifling dissent and the democratic voice there. This is what their masters, let’s say, in Europe, especially the British, really want. What do you think the British essentially have in mind for the future of this country, in which there’s no democracy, there’s no healthy and viable process of democracy. What’s going to be like in 10 years in Bahrain?
Cavell: If this kingdom lasts for another 10 years, I’ll be surprised. What the British are trying to do by building their first military base outside of the United Kingdom in over 50 years in Bahrain, [what they] are trying to do is to utilize Bahrain as a stepping stone for the entire Middle East in order to work hand in glove with the United States to remain the hegemons in the area. Democracy is not on their agenda.
And so, what they’ve told the Al Khalifahs to do of late and the Al Khalifahs have alerted all of its press outlets in the United Kingdom and in the United States that all of the suggestions for reform have been made and that there’s no more opposition in Bahrain. And so they’ve locked up the entire opposition and they deny to the international community that there is any opposition. So, it’s a police state, a totalitarian state and they’re trying to get away with this corruption by simply denying that it exists.
Bahrain announces more jail sentences for people involved in anti-government protests.
Bahraini authorities deny the request of a female political prisoner to let her baby boy out of jail due to her illness.
Human rights activists have slammed the UK for sitting Queen Elizabeth next the Bahraini monarch, whose kingdom has been sharply criticized for numerous rights abuses.
The US needs Bahraini regime’s help to continue Middle East policies, says an analyst.

STEP 2020 is fundamentally concerned with continuous improvement. Each initiative, no matter how small, is a step in a series of commonly themed staircases aimed at reengineering everything we do.
We operate a varied and wide ranging set of business processes which differ in almost all locations. All of them inter-link in different ways with multiple different users and computer systems. The Business Process Efficiency staircase of projects is aimed at delivering our strategic goals of Optimising business processes and Lowering our breakeven point.
Our aim is to implement one global standard operating model. This will unify our people, processes and systems. Each of our business processes is being designed to be simple and effective while being robust and as automated as possible. That will free up management time to focus on value added activities. It will also reduce the cost and simplify support for our information systems.
Our manufacturing facilities have been under invested in previous years. This has led to inefficient manufacturing processes, long lead times, excess waste and waiting time as products pass between multiple work centres. The Manufacturing Efficiency staircase of projects is aimed at supporting delivery of a number of our strategic goals such as Lowering our breakeven point.
Our aim is to modernise our manufacturing capability to match our leading edge engineering and production know how. Better equipped facilities will shorten lead times to enhance customer service, reduce stock holdings to improve the balance sheet, and contribute strongly towards our goal of mid-teens operating margins by 2020.
Our commercial business processes are focused on improving customer service and enhancing our service offering.
Like many of our diverse business processes, there is much scope for us to standardise and simplify. The Commercial Positioning staircase of projects is primarily aimed at supporting delivery of our strategic goal of Enhancing customer service.
We are working hard to improve our customer service. We know we have a long way to go as this is an area that has been weak in the past. Through improved management of our commercial teams and resources and by re-connecting with customers in their own local markets we aim to make our reputation for service as strong as that for our superior products.
Much of our operating footprint has been accumulated over a long period of time and in many cases either falls short of modern standards, is too big, or over-priced for our needs. The Corporate Efficiency staircase of projects is aimed at supporting delivery of a number of our strategic goals such as Strengthening our Balance Sheet and Improving Financial performance.
Put simply, we want to make the best use of the spaces we occupy. Where we have too much space will aim to reduce it. Where we overpay for space we will renegotiate lower rents or move to better priced premises. Where we have surplus assets or facilities we will aim to realise value and avoid unnecessary costs.
Our diversity of markets is a major opportunity for the Group. By bringing greater focus to our sales activities, we can deliver steady and sustainable growth and eliminate much of our historical cyclicality. The Growth Activities staircase of projects is aimed at supporting delivery of our strategic goal of Generating margin enhancing growth.
Our markets typically grow in line with GDP. Because we are under represented in a number of geographies markets and industry sectors, we are aiming to deliver annual growth of GDP plus in the period to 2020. At the same time, we will leverage superior product capability to enhance our operating margins and retain value for our shareholders.

The Swaziland National Trust Commission was established by Act No. 9 of 1972, with later amendments, made effective from 27 July 1973.
The Museum, National Monuments and Archaeology departments are responsible for the protection of Swaziland's cultural heritage.
to promote and provide advice on ecological research and monitoring.
In order to achieve these objectives, there are four sections under this department, namely Parks/Biodiversity Management, Environmental Education, Community Outreach and Ecology/Research.
The programmes operated by this department, although focussed mainly on existing protected areas, also extend to elsewhere in the country as the SNTC has the responsibility for the protection of Swaziland's biodiversity.
The Swaziland National Trust Commission is the parastatal organisation responsible for the conservation of nature and the cultural heritage of the Kingdom of Swaziland.
To conserve the natural and cultural heritage of Swaziland through sustainable utilisation of these resources and promotion of environmental awareness throughout the nation.
The activities carried out by the Swaziland National Trust Commission with regard to the country's cultural heritage include the operation of the national museum, as well as national monuments, which include the King Sobuza II Memorial Park. Archaeology also falls under the Swaziland National Trust Commission; the archaeology department, in the past, has been responsible for excavations at various locations in the country.
With regard to Swaziland's biodiversity, the Swaziland National Trust Commission is not only responsible for running the country's nature reserves, it also carries out a variety of activities to promote the conservation of Swaziland's flora and fauna throughout the country. These include environmental education and community outreach programmes.
It is important to ensure that all STNC's activities have a minimum negative impact on the long term conservation of the natural and cultural heritage. The SNTC has a vital role to play in enhancing the quality of life in Swaziland, through conservation of its natural and cultural heritage, in the long term. SNTC's responsibilities are on a national level and are not restricted to existing SNTC managed areas.
Our future lies in our past!
From a painting by Phillip Dlamini, 1998, of a purple crested lourie. In traditional Swazi dress, the red feathers feature in the royal headdress, so this bird illustration is not only a symbol for wildlife conservation, but also of cultural heritage.

During the holidays, a greeting card can be a simple way to share a little holiday cheer and keep in touch with business contacts. If used correctly, those holiday cards will have you cheering with an added boost to your year-end revenue.
Deciding to send company holiday cards is the first step to success. You want to show all of your business contacts that you care and are thinking of them at this special time of the year. Especially when it’s unexpected, a holiday card can make a lasting impression on anyone in your holiday card list.
Sending holiday cards to new customers can be an affordable way to promote your business and help start lasting customer relationships. Whether it’s a holiday card, birthday card or thank you card, regular contact makes your customers more likely to think of your business first.
When sent to existing customers, holiday cards can help nurture relationships and keep your business on customers’ minds during the busiest time of the year. Holiday cards show your appreciation for their business and foster customer loyalty. Adding a personal message will build your credibility without making the customer feel like they’re being sold to.
Especially during the holidays, everyone welcomes a little savings. Sending a coupon with your holiday card can entice recipients to visit your business again.
The holidays are a time for generosity and gift giving, so why not join in on the fun? Customers will appreciate the gift and remember your business the next time they go shopping.
Include something they can keep on their desk to remind them of your business throughout the year, such as a calendar, sticky pad or magnet.
While the holiday card may end up in the trash, your business card could end up in their wallet or friend’s hand.
Even if you’re not close with everyone on your holiday card list, leave a brief handwritten note on the inside of each card. It may be the one thing that makes your card stand out from the rest of the pile.
Spreading the holiday cheer with a simple greeting card can help your business reach the end of the year sales goals and foster continuing relationships with valued customers.

Battle and port loading time. What gives?
I've had couple of games where I've been sunk before the game has finished loading the battle for me.
This was a really close game, at one point we only had 3 ships left while the enemy had 7... Then there was a big showdown at the cap point.
Shot down 50 planes and only lost 6 fighters while captaining the Independence. 1/1/1 loadout.
Managed to bag whopping total of 0 kills after dishing out 188k damage..
Woooo! bagged my first bismarck!

At last! Boy that was some long 8-game losing streak and what better than for the Bulls most erratic pitcher, Nate Karns, to get the win and a Bulls struggling hitter, Vince Belnome, to get a home run, two doubles and an intentional walk (how’s that for regained respect)?
Was there a downside? Well, yes there was. I was unable to attend the game and only was able to listen to the last two innings. But that was my problem, not the Bulls.
After that awful slide, sure was nice to hear them celebrate a win. Fortunately for the Bulls, they are in the IL South and in spite of the long slide, they remain 4.5 games ahead in the division.
New guy Jeremy Moore was in the lineup. The last (and only) time we saw his name was during spring training when he hit a non-roster invitee list. His stats from Montgomery are nothing special and yet he has both Triple A and major league experience. I did not hear the profile from Patrick Kinas, but I’m guessing that there are injury issues there. At any rate, in his first game he went 2 for 4 with a double and 2 RBI. That gives him great Durham Bulls stats. We Bulls fans have an outfielder who can hit. What more could we ask for?
Alex Colome will put on a Rays uniform for a start against Baltimore Friday. Good luck. Except for his last game, he has done a stunning job with the Bulls since his return from suspension. That means Jeremy Hellickson will likely have another start with the Bulls as part of his rehab.
The Durham Herald-Sun newspaper has put itself behind a paywall ($10/month for digital subscribers), so we will no longer be providing links to their coverage. Too bad, because, unless I've been missing something all year, they were the only regular reporters with press box and media access to the team. At least they were only ones I’ve ever found since Adam Sobsey stopped writing for Indy Week. Doesn’t seem fair to our vast readership to quote or link to something they would have to pay to see. (Note: We’ve done the same for the Tampa Bay Times, which has also gone behind a paywall.) We’ve emailed the Herald-Sun. Will let you know if anything comes of it.

Earlier this week, Billings Firefighters and AMR had to rescue a child from a fissure on the Rims near Swords Park.
The boy and his mother were walking along the Rims when he fell down five feet into one of the fissures, which was covered in snow at the time.
Billings Fire Battalion Chief Kevin Johnson said there are many fissures right now like the one the boy fell in, and this time ofyear people should stay on the bike path and exercise extreme caution.
But questions have been raised, should there be more signs warning people about the potential dangers on the Rims?
Mayor Bill Cole said, "If there are places in our community where there are dangers that are not obvious, then I would encourage people to let the city or private property managers know about it so they can put up appropriate signage."
He did not say if city council would be visiting this issue soon or not.
Mayor Cole said right now everyone wants to go outside now that Spring is right around the corner, but if you are going to the river or the Rims, now is not the time to leave your common sense back at the house.
Billings Parks and Recreation will be discussing whether more signs are needed at dangerous locations on the Rims in their next meeting.

Under the licensing model, a domestic manufacturer (licensor) grants licence to a foreign manufacturer (licensee) to use its intellectual property such as patent and trademark.
It is under contract manufacturing that a firm outsources the production of its goods and services to foreign firms and concentrates on marketing operations in international business. On the other hand, in the licensing and franchising models, a company grants intellectual property rights to a foreign firm, and in a joint venture, two or more firms pool their resources to launch a new business enterprise.
The model in which two or more firms pool their resources to form a new business entity that is legally separate and distinct from its parent companies is known as a joint venture. On the other hand, contract manufacturing is an outsourcing process, and the licensing and franchising models are those in which intellectual property rights are granted to foreign firms for a fee.
Which of the following is not an advantage of exporting?
Exporting involves selling of goods to other countries. It has various advantages, such as lower risks, less requirement of investment and easier way of entering into international markets. However, the limited presence that it offers exporting firms in international markets is a disadvantage of exporting.
Which one of the following modes of entry requires higher level of risks?
It is the joint venture model that requires a very high level of risk. This is because, in a joint venture, two or more firms join together to share their technology and trade secrets. This in turn raises the possibility that the shared information or secrets might be revealed.
Which one of the following modes of entry permits greatest degree of control over overseas operations?
A wholly owned subsidiary exercises all the decision-making powers and complete managerial control over the overseas operations of its parent company. A wholly owned subsidiary is created by a company by buying up the entire equity of a foreign firm.
Which one of the following modes of entry brings the firm closer to international markets?
The mode of entry that brings a domestic firm closer to international markets is contract manufacturing. This is because contract manufacturing enables the firm to be associated with international markets and reap benefits from the opportunities available. On the other hand, modes such as licensing and franchising and joint ventures do not allow much access to foreign markets.
Which one of the following is not amongst India's major export item?
India is mainly involved in exporting textiles and garments, basmati rice, and oil and petroleum products. However, franchising is not a part of Indian exports. It is a mode of entering into international business by granting intellectual property rights to a foreign company.
Which one of the following is not amongst India's major import items?
The major items of India's imports are oil and petroleum products, machinery, pearls and precious stones. However, Ayurvedic medicines are not a part of Indian imports. India is the world's largest exporter of Ayurvedic medicines.
Which one of the following is not amongst India's major trading partner?
The USA, UK and Germany are India's major trading partners. New Zealand is not among India's top trading partners.
Differentiate between International trade and International business.
International trade refers to the exchange of goods and services across the international boundaries of countries.
International business includes movement of capital, personnel, technology and intellectual property such as trademarks, know-how and copyrights, besides international trade.
International trade involves the movement of finished goods and raw material as exports and imports across countries.
International business involves the movement of goods and services, emigration and immigration of human capital, and exchange of technology, technical know-how, copyrights and trademarks.
What is international business? How is it different from domestic business?
International business consists of all the trade and manufacturing activities that take place across national boundaries. These activities involve the exchange and movement of goods, services, capital, technology, skills and patents across countries. The following table highlights the key differences between domestic and international businesses.
Trade within the national boundaries of a country.
Trade between two or more countries.
High factor mobility within the country.
Low factor mobility across national boundaries.
Markets are homogeneous due to similarity in tastes and preferences across markets.
Markets are heterogeneous due to differences in customers, preferences, languages, etc.
Subjected to rules, laws or taxation system of one country.
Subjected to rules, regulations and laws of many countries.
Domestic currency is used for payment.
Foreign currency is used for payment.
Discuss any three advantages of international business.
The following are the advantages of international business.
(a) Medium for earning foreign exchange: By facilitating the exchange of goods and services in the international market, international business acts as a medium for acquiring sufficient foreign exchange reserves for nations. This in turn enables them to import goods that may not be available domesticallyâ€”for example, technology, capital goods and petroleum products.
(b) Tool for speeding up economic growth: As international business provides a big platform to countries and local producers to cater to the needs of an international consumer base, it helps in promoting their growth prospects. It also helps in increasing employment opportunities for the people living in these countries.
(c) Means of improving living standards: International business facilitates the consumption of goods and services that are produced in other countries. This in turn helps the people living in the importing countries to enjoy a higher standard of living and facilitates the growth and development of the exporting countries.
"International business is more than international trade". Comment.
International business refers to the business transactions that take place across national boundaries. It encompasses all international activities including manufacturing and movement of goods, services, capital, personnel and intellectual property. On the other hand, international trade is an activity that is confined to just import and export of goods. It is itself a small part of international business. Therefore, we can say that international business is much bigger than international trade.
The following are some of the major operations that are a part of international business and help in distinguishing it from the international trade.
(a) Import and export of services: Trading of services is an important constituent of international business. Services that are a part of international business include travel and tourism, entertainment, communication, transportation, construction, advertising, R&D and banking.
(b) Licensing and franchising: International business includes activities related to licensing and franchising. Under licensing, a foreign firm is granted intellectual property rights by a home company, so that the firm abroad can produce and sell goods under the home company's trademarks, patents or copyrights in exchange of a fee. Similarly, under franchising, a home country grants a foreign firm the right to produce and sell goods under a common brand name using the same operations support system in exchange of a fee.
(c) Foreign investment: It refers to the funds that are invested abroad for some returns. It is an important part of international business and involves two components, as follows.
(i) Direct investment: It refers to an investment made directly in the plants and machinery of a foreign company so as to undertake production by acquiring controlling rights.
(ii). Portfolio investment: It refers to an investment made in securities or by providing loans to a foreign company with an objective of earning profits in the form of dividends or interests on loans.
What is the major reason underlying trade between nations?
The following are the important reasons that encourage nations to engage in trade.
(a) Difference in resource endowment: Every country is endowed with different kinds and combinations of resources. Thus, in order to obtain the resources which are not domestically available but are available in other countries, nations trade with one another.
(b) Aim of attaining specialisation: Because of the availability of distinct resources, culture, labour force and technical know-how, every country has a specialisation in particular types of products. Thus, countries trade with an aim of attaining specialisation in the goods in which they have a superior technical know-how or the goods that can be produced only with the domestically available specific resources which are not available in other countries.
(c) Difference in labour productivity and production cost: Production costs and labour productivity differ from one country to another. Thus, countries export the goods which they can produce efficiently at a low production cost. On the other hand, they import the goods which they are not able to produce efficiently at a lower cost.
"What benefits do firms derive by entering into international trade". Comment.
The following are some of the benefits that firms enjoy by entering into international trade.
(a) Higher profits: International trade allows firms to earn higher profits by taking advantage of the price differences prevailing between countries. For instance, if the price of a commodity in the domestic market is lower than that prevailing in international markets, a firm can benefit by selling the commodity in international markets.
(b) Growth prospects: Often, firms face a saturated domestic demand. In such cases, international trade provides a platform to them to increase their consumer base by opening up the route to overseas markets. This increases their growth prospects.
(c) Higher capacity utilisation: Sometimes, the production capacity of a firm may exceed the demand for its product in the domestic market. Therefore, in such cases, trading in international markets helps in utilising its capacity fully (by serving a larger consumer base). This in turn helps the firm to improve the profitability of its operations and benefit from the economies of scale by lowering production costs and increasing the per unit profit margin.
(d) Method to escape high domestic competition: International trading allows firms to escape the stiff competition in domestic markets. If domestic traders face high competition in domestic markets, they can turn towards international markets to sell their products and earn higher profits.
(e) Enhanced business perceptions: Every business firm strives to achieve long-term growth and expansion. This objective is aligned with the objective of stepping into international markets. Hence, companies aim at diversifying their products to enter into foreign markets to reap the benefits of overseas trading, and also to achieve growth.
Discuss as to why nations trade.
In what ways is exporting a better way of entering into international markets than setting up wholly owned subsidiaries abroad.
Exporting refers to the process of selling goods and services to companies in other countries as per their requirements. It involves the movement of goods by air or sea from the home country (where the goods are produced) to other countries (which import these goods). On the other hand, a wholly owned subsidiary is a firm in which a parent company makes an equity investment to acquire full control over it. Despite the fact that a parent company has full control over a wholly owned subsidiary abroad, the exporting model is a better way of entering into international markets. This is because of the following factors.
(a) Lesser complexities involved: Compared with setting up a wholly owned subsidiary, exporting is a much easier way of entering into international markets. This is because export management is a much simpler and easier process without complexities. On the other hand, the management of a wholly owned subsidiary is a complex and rigorous task.
(b) Less investment required: The amount of time and money required to be invested in an export business is less than that in a wholly owned subsidiary. This is because subsidiaries involve setting up manufacturing plants and starting operations in other countries, which require large amounts of money and effort. Thus, export is a favourable mode of entering into international markets.
(c) Less exposure to risks and losses: As exporting requires a smaller investment, the risk involved is negligible. On the other hand, in the case of a wholly owned subsidiary in another country, the parent company owns 100 per cent share, and thus, it bears the entire risk in case of failure of the subsidiary. Hence, exporting is said to be a better mode of entering into international markets.
Enumerate limitations of contract manufacturing.
The following are the major limitations of contract manufacturing.
(a) Difficulty in adhering to international quality standards: There are numerous reasons why local firms (which have received contracts for manufacturing goods) may find it difficult to follow the instructions of international companies. As a result, they might fail to produce goods strictly as per international quality and standards. If international companies pass on these inferior goods to their customers, this might hamper their goodwill and brand name.
(b) Lack of freedom over decision-making process: In contract manufacturing, local manufacturers lose their power to alter their production process according to their own decisions. This is because, in contract manufacturing, it becomes an obligation for the manufacturing company to follow the instructions given by the foreign company which is its client. This results in a lack of freedom for local manufacturers as they cannot take any decisions on their own.
(c) Possibility of incurring losses due to contracted prices: A contract signed between a local contract manufacturer and an international company is binding. Local manufacturers have to abide by the contract clauses and sell the output only to the foreign company at the predetermined prices. They cannot sell the output in the local market. This narrows the scope of local manufacturers for earning profits in case the domestic prices are higher than the prices in the contract with their international clients.
Discuss briefly the factors that govern the choice of mode of entry into international business.
International business is basically concerned with trading of goods and services across national boundaries. In order to enter into international business, firms have various modes available to them. The following are the different factors governing the choice of a mode of entry into international business.
(a) Complexity: Complexity is a major factor governing the choice of a mode of entry into international business. The level of complexity differs from one mode to another. For instance, the degree of complexity in setting up a wholly owned subsidiary abroad is higher than that in starting an export and import business. Thus, for businesses which want to avoid complexities in their operations, certain modes are better than others.
(b) Risk involved: Different modes of entry into international business involve different levels of risks. For instance, the risk involved in the contract manufacturing, exporting and licensing modes are comparatively negligible. On the other hand, the risk is comparatively higher in setting up a wholly owned subsidiary for entering international trade. Thus, generally, modes with lower risks are preferred by companies.
(c) Ownership and control: Some entrepreneurs prefer to have full ownership and decision-making control over the foreign firm involved in their international business. A wholly owned subsidiary gives full decision-making control to the parent company over its foreign subsidiary. On the other hand, modes of entry into international business such as licensing and exporting do not offer ownership rights to the parent company.
(d) Investment: Every mode of entry does not require the same amount of investment. For instance, the level of investment required for setting up a wholly owned subsidiary is higher than for engaging in importing and exporting or for licensing a foreign company. Thus, the mode of entry preferred by a firm depends on its capacity and readiness to make an investment.
Why is it said that licensing is an easier way to expand globally?
The following are the important reasons put forward in favour of licensing as an easier way for a company to expand globally.
(a) Less expensive: The licensor need not make huge investments abroad, and thus it is a relatively less expensive mode of entering into international markets.
(b) Lesser risk of government intervention: The business in the overseas market is managed by the licensee, who is a local person. Thus, licensing involves lesser risk of government intervention in the operations.
(c) Better knowledge and contacts: As the licensee is a local person, he or she has a better knowledge of the market conditions in his or her country than the licensor. This in turn helps the licensor to conduct the market operations smoothly and expand globally.
Discuss the major trends India's foreign trade. Also list the major products that India trade with other countries.
Foreign trade primarily involves the export of goods from countries and the import of goods by countries. In India, import and export of goods form an essential part of the overall economic activities. This can be seen in the increase of foreign trade in India's GDP from 14.6 per cent in 1990-91 to 24.1 percent in 2003-04. Exports and imports have been increasing continuously since then.
The following table shows the major trends in India's foreign trade.
From the table, the following facts can be derived.
(a) Since 2004-05, there has been a continuous rise in the values of both exports and imports. As we can see, the total value of exports was Rs. 3,75,340 crore in 2004-05. However, the value increased to Rs. 11,42,649 crore in 2010-11. Similarly, the value of imports increased from Rs. 5,01,065 crore in 2004-05 to Rs. 16,83,467 crore in 2010-11. Thus, from the table, we can infer that the country has registered an impressive growth in foreign trade since 2004.
(b) Despite the tremendous increase in both exports and imports, a trend of increasing negative trade balance was seen during the same period. This negative trade balance depicts the excess of imports over exports. As we can see, the trade balance was negative in all the years mentioned and was continuously rising negatively. We can, thus, infer two important facts.
(i) The value of imports was always more than that of exports.
(ii) The rate of increase in imports was always higher than the rate of increase in exports.
However, it can be concluded that both imports and exports have experienced a phenomenal growth during the last few years. The total value of exports has been lower than the total value of imports (as inferred from the negative trade balance in the last seven years).
To analyse the major components in India's trading, we can study the following table.
The following conclusions can be drawn from the table above.
(a) India mainly exported products such as manufactured goods; petroleum, crude and related products; gems and jewellery; and engineering goods. In other words, India was primarily engaged in the export of finished goods.
(b) Manufactured goods were a major component of Indian exports as they made up 68 per cent of the total exports. The share of gems and jewellery and petroleum products in the total exports was also significant.
(a) India mainly imported petroleum, oil and lubricants, capital goods, gold and silver, etc. In other words, India was primarily engaged in importing raw materials.
(b) Petroleum products were a major component of Indian imports as they made up 28.6 per cent of the total imports. The share of capital goods and gold and silver was also significant.
Differentiate between contract manufacturing and setting up wholly owned production subsidiary abroad.
A firm hires a local manufacturer in another country on a contractual basis to produce goods as per its requirements.
The parent company buys equity in a firm in another country and acquires full control over it.
The firm has limited control over the local manufacturer.
The parent company has full control over its operations in another country through the subsidiary.
Negligible investment is made abroad.
The parent company buys up the entire equity of the firm abroad and makes this firm its subsidiary.
What is invisible trade? Discuss the salient aspects of India's trade in services.
Invisible trade basically refers to the trading of services. In other words, as services are intangible and cannot be touched or seen, the trade in services is also known as invisible trade. This trade includes services such as travel and tourism, communication and intellectual property rights. In India, the trade in services has been increasing over the years. This can be seen from the following table that depicts the share of three major components (i.e., travel, transportation and insurance) of trade in services in India.
(a) The trade in three major services (foreign travel, transportation and insurance) increased significantly during the last four decades. Out of the three, a spectacular increase was witnessed in the export of foreign travel - from Rs. 15 crores in 1960-61 to Rs, 18,873 crores in 2004-05.
(b) The imports of the three services also increased manifold. Major increases were recorded in foreign travel (from Rs.12 crores in 1960-61 to Rs.16,111 crores in 2004-05) and transportation (from Rs. 25 crores in 1960-61 to Rs.10703 crores in 2004-05).
The following table highlights the major components of service exports of India.
The following trends can be seen from the table above.
(a) The change in the composition of exports has been phenomenal with a major shift from travel services to software services in the past few years. The software sector, which had only 10.2 per cent share of exports in 1995-96, enjoyed the highest share with 48.9 percent in 2003-04 and 41.7 percent in 2010-11. On the other hand, the share of travel and transportation declined from 64.3 per cent in 1995-96 to 22.2 per cent in 2010-11.
(b) In 2010-11, the share of miscellaneous items increased tremendously to 34.2 percent from 22.9 per cent in 1995-96..
Distinguish between licensing and franchising.
The licensor grants licence to a foreign company (licensee) to produce and sell goods under the licensor's logo and trademarks for a fee.
The franchiser grants a foreign firm (franchisee) the right to operate a business using a common brand name for an initial or a regular fee.
Operations are related to production and marketing of goods.
Operations are related to the services business.
List major items of India's exports.
The following are a few major items exported from India.
What are the major items that are exported from India.
India is well known for exporting both primary goods as well as finished products. It has a comparative advantage in exporting a few primary products such as tea, basmati rice and semi-precious stones, and a few manufactured goods such as leather, medicinal and pharmaceutical products.
List the major countries with whom India trade.
Today, India is growing at a fast pace with regard to foreign trade and exchange. The major countries that are involved in trade with India are the US, UK, Belgium, Germany, Japan and China.

The industry is anticipated to almost triple in size in the coming years with the market expected to reach US $9.7 billion by the year 2022.
Global Ayurveda Summit in Kochi found that 77 percent of Indian households used them in 2017. This is up from 69 percent of households in 2015.
The rise of ayurveda is being fuelled by growing emphasis on the importance of healthy lifestyles, suggested the report prepared by Powerwaterhouse Coopers (PwC) and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
This is against the backdrop of India’s rising rates of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), which the report credits with encouraging more and more people to look after their health.
To this end, many Indians are turning to Ayurveda and other alternative medicine systems and treatments, such as unani, siddha, naturopathy, and homoeopathy.
Speaking at the event, Governor of Kerala P Sathasivam welcomed the news. He spoke positively of the Centre “[giving] priority to mainstreaming indigenous medicine systems” in the 2017 National Health Policy.
He credited this with giving “a policy boost” to “Indian medicine systems, such as Ayurveda.” The state was identified in the report as being well-positioned to lead the growth of ayurveda in the coming years.
To build on the industry’s growth in India, PwC and the CII encouraged the use of technologyby the ayurvedic industry to satisfy demand. It also said that quality control standards need to be enforced if ayurveda is to be successfully launched at the international level.
The Centre has been keen to promote traditional systems of medicine in recent years. It established the Union Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) in 2014.
The Modi government has been keen to promote AYUSH both at home and abroad, constructing state-of-the-art homoeopathic laboratories and showcasing the industry at international conferences.
This is fuelling growing uptake of AYUSH. Not only do 77 percent of households use Ayurveda, there has been a fifty percent increase in patients seeking homoeopathic treatment in the past five years.
AYUSH’s increased popularity is being observed not only among Indians, but also among international visitors. Some analysts have credited AYUSH with driving – at least in part – the rapid growth of India’s medical tourism industry.
This is not to say that AYUSH treatments cannot be of some public health benefit. For example, homoeopathic treatments may lessen overreliance on antibiotics and other medicaments for ailments such as the common cold.
Some evidence has been produced, suggesting the merit of alternative approaches such as music therapy to mental healthcare, as well as the potential value of turmeric in the fights against arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease.
There is a clear scientific consensus surrounding the limitations of what AYUSH can offer in terms of health. As such, the rising popularity of such treatments may seem baffling to some.
Yet the industry’s continual growth on the backbone of near-incessant government promotion and largely positive coverage in the media does seem to indicate that, for the foreseeable future, AYUSH is here to stay.

BTTM FDRS is the longest piece of sustained storytelling that I bought at last December’s CALA (Comics Arts LA) festival. Creepy and charming, it mashes up oozy, sick horror and dark, politically barbed comedy. The story satirizes racism, structural and environmental, via a blighted Chicago neighborhood and an imposing, temple-like block of an apartment building there that serves as the setting. A hyperbolic SF riff on urban decay, BTTM FDRS also skewers the kind of White hipster hypocrisy that extols urban decay for its authenticity. It does all this with a cast of distinctive characters, funny, stinging dialogue, and moments of queasiness built around a body horror conceit: that of a building that literally gets inside your guts. It’s one of a kind.
I bought BTTM FDRS partly because writer Ezra Claytan Daniels (www.ezracdaniels.com) had a nice booth at CALA and I enjoyed talking to him. Also, I bought it because it is drawn by Ben Passmore (www.benpassmoreart.com), whose terrific cartooning I, like many people I bet, discovered through Your Black Friend, which my comics class will be reading soon. Passmore is great. Daniels is no slouch either; it turns out (I’ve been asleep) that he’s been producing intriguing comic books, as well as digital comics (e.g. Upgrade Soul), design work, and multimedia projects, for, oh, the past fifteen years or so. His resume is something.
The copy of BTTM FDRS I bought is labelled a “limited sneak peek edition”; a wider release is forthcoming. What I have is an unpaginated, roughly 150-page trade, sans barcode or other fuss. It’s all story. What’s more, the storytelling is dense, with mostly four-tier pages of seven, eight, or nine panels each. The colors (assisted by another cartooning ace, Luke Howard) are assaultively bright, non-mimetic, and perfect—the book burns the eye, in a good way. Passmore’s cartooning is elastic and freaky, treading a knife’s-edge between humor and horror. And the story, despite some puzzling, genre-dictated moves, is knowing and needling on matters of race, White fragility, and the everyday BS we say to each other. The sublime horror dissipates near the end, since explanations and resolutions are required, but Daniels and Passmore don’t let us entirely off the hook.
In sum, BTTM FDRS is sharp, like a harpoon in the belly of Trumpism. Look for it when it goes big.

Finding the best deal when searching for storage isn’t so simple. That’s the main reason we have created the article to help you out. Enjoy and comment if you liked it!
Keeping valuables safe is an important part of everyday life. In some instances, keeping your valuables safe means you can’t use them in your daily life, but you also can’t get rid of them. In these instances, turning to self-storage can save the quality of your valuables and leave you assured that your things are safe and secure, but when you want to find the best self-storage, educating yourself on all of your options is the best way to go. Because of this, we created an easy-to-read guide to help you be on your way to protecting your items.
Before you do anything else when searching for the perfect storage company for you and your things, you’ll need to do simple research and see what companies are in your area or the area you need to keep your items. Doing a quick search online should show you exactly the companies around the area you need, but if you live in a smaller town that relies less on the internet for marketing, do a quick search in the local newspaper. Both ways of determining the companies near you are foolproof. After concluding this, you’ll want to check which companies are not only reliable with their customers, but also have great reviews. To nail down which companies have the best reliability and customer service you’ll want to look at local reviews. If they have a Facebook page or there are reviews in eg. Trustpilot.co.uk, check out what other people who have used that company have to say. These reviews will not only help you decide which company to pick but also help you in the long run if any problems ensue.
Another important factor in choosing the storage company you need is comparing prices. An easy way to do this is to call each company you’re still considering after looking at reviews and asking what their prices are for each storage unit. Some companies units are all the same size, so if you have more items than one can fit, a smart idea would be to either go for a company that has larger units available or determine if two units are affordable for your budget. Some companies have deals where if you rent out 2 units, you get a cheaper overall price or a smaller deposit, while other storage companies don’t offer deals like that. Decide how much you need to keep in storage and keep it in mind when considering each company’s prices. Deals are also fairly common. Check the websites for each company you are considering if they are offering any limited time deals that may benefit you now or in the long run. You could be saving your valuables and your money by doing so!
convenient in the least. Cooling may or may not actually be necessary for your purposes. If you have furniture that can get damaged in the heat, such as wood, it would be a smart move to get a unit with constant central air conditioning. Great if your picked storage has a coffee shop and resting area!
Good luck finding your perfect storage unit!

CHICAGO --- The systolic blood pressure readings of African-Americans dropped between one to five points when they moved to less segregated neighborhoods, reports a new Northwestern Medicine study.
It is the first study to look at the longitudinal effects of living in less segregated areas on blood pressure and to compare the effect within the same individuals. Previous research showed racial residential segregation is related to a prevalence of hypertension at a single point in time.
"This study provides stronger, more direct evidence that segregation impacts blood pressure and harms the health of African-Americans," said lead author Kiarri Kershaw, an assistant professor of preventive medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. "I believe it's related to the stress of living in these neighborhoods."
Less stress, achieved by decreasing exposure to violence and improving opportunities for socioeconomic mobility, is likely a key factor in blood pressure reductions, Kershaw said.
The study will be published May 15 in JAMA Internal Medicine.
"In a less violent area with better resources, you are more secure about your family's safety and your children's future in better schools," Kershaw said. "You see opportunities for the economic mobility of your kids. And there is better access to good grocery stores, health care and an economically vital business district."
The change in blood pressure was not related to poverty or household income, but increases in educational attainment were related to reductions in blood pressure.
The study examined longitudinal associations of racial residential segregation with blood pressure in more than 2,000 African-American participants of the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study, a national study of adults who have been followed for approximately 25 years. Researchers looked at the associations of within-person change in exposure to segregation and within-person change in blood pressure. The participants were ages 18 to 30 at baseline and ages 43 to 55 at follow up.
The four CARDIA sites are in Chicago; Birmingham, Alabama; Minneapolis and Oakland, California.
For African American participants who started out in highly segregated neighborhoods (80 percent of the sample), systolic blood pressure dropped 1 mm Hg for those who moved to less segregated neighborhoods. They started out in highly segregated neighborhoods and moved to neighborhoods with low or medium segregation and, in some cases, moved back to highly segregated ones. So they had exposure to less segregation, but some not consistently over 25 years.
Systolic blood pressure, the first number in a blood pressure reading, is a greater predictor of heart attacks and strokes in African Americans than diastolic (the second number), based on evidence from the CARDIA study.
The participants' reductions in blood pressure were even more dramatic for a subset of individuals, who lived in highly segregated neighborhoods when the study began, then moved to and remained in low or medium segregated residential areas for the entire follow-up period. Their systolic blood pressure fell from 3 to 5 mm Hg.
"This is a powerful effect," Kershaw said. "In terms of impact, just 1 mm Hg of reduction of the systolic blood pressure at the population level could result in meaningful reductions in heart attacks, strokes and heart failure."
In this sample, people lived in 10 metropolitan areas or counties when the study began but had spread out to over 170 metropolitan areas or counties by the end of follow up.
Racial disparities in hypertension prevalence and related health outcomes represent one of the largest and most persistent sources of health inequities in the U.S.
"Several strategies need to be employed at the policy level to reduce the persistent racial health disparities we see in the U.S.," Kershaw said. "This includes policies that improve access to resources for those living in segregated neighborhoods and policies that provide residents living in segregated neighborhoods with the opportunity to move to neighborhoods with better access to resources."
Such resources include better quality schools, access to public transportation, parks, clinics and supermarkets.
"Findings from our study suggest social policies that reduce segregation, such as the opening of housing markets, may have meaningful health benefits such as the reduction of blood pressure," Kershaw added.
Within-person increases in educational attainment also were related to reductions in systolic blood pressure. Those who went from having less than a high school diploma a baseline to completing at least some college experienced more than 1 mm Hg reductions in systolic blood pressure. This finding is consistent with several previous studies showing individuals with higher education levels are less likely to have hypertension. Changes in education, though, had little effect on the relationship between segregation and systolic blood pressure.
"This suggests education may not be the primary pathway through which changes in exposure to segregated neighborhoods influences changes in blood pressure," Kershaw said.
The paper is titled: "Changes in Blood Pressure: The Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study."
Mercedes Carnethon, associate professor of preventive medicine at Feinberg, is a coauthor on the paper.

Generous members of the public have raised hundreds of pounds for a 12-year-old girl who was the victim of a sickening bullying attack by two Grimsby girls - with one even buying her concert tickets to see Olly Murs.
The girl was seen pleading with the two 13-year-olds as she was taunted and spat on and repeatedly kicked in the head and face. One of her attackers could be seen laughing during the stomach-churning sustained assault which was filmed by one of the girls' friends.
As police confirmed they were investigating the incident, kind members of the public have rushed to support the young victim, raising almost £400 in a matter of hours through a a JustGiving Page.
One good Samaritan has even gone as far as to buy the young girl a ticket to see Olly Murs on Sunday, July 9 in Scarborough.
Generous Ryan Wardle of Boulevard Avenue, Grimsby, spent more than £100 on the tickets and said he hoped it would bring about of joy to her life after her ordeal.
He told the Telegraph: "I bought the tickets after I saw the horrible video and wanted to do something to help her, and music is something that brings people together in happiness.
"I got her two tickets so that hopefully she will be able to bring one of her good friends along and have a wonderful time.
"There is too much negativity in the world today, and I felt that I was in a position where I can help to bring a smile to a young girl's face after what she went through, that is all that really matters.
"There is no place for bullying in this world, and hopefully this will show the other girls that bullying will get you nowhere.
"If she needs help getting there I am also willing to help as I know it is a fair distance away, but I am sure that if her or her parents get in contact we can work something out."
Ryan's generosity was warmyl welcomed by members of the public with another offering to donate £20 more for the girl to spend at the concert.
Scott Chamberlain said on Facebook: "Not a lot but I will give the poor lass £30 to spend at the Olly Murs concert, or whatever she wants to spend it on, bless her."
Others donated through the JustGiving Page set up to raise money for the girl.
Orgasier Susan Jarvis wrote: "I like all of us was sickened by the Facebook film last night of the poor girl being bullied by two girls.
"I am hoping to show the victim that there are far more nice people in this town than she believes right now, by raising funds to treat her to tickets to a gig or theme park, or a shopping trip if she chooses."
One man, donating £5, wrote: "Bullies never win."
A family member of one of the attackers, who we cannot identify for legal reasons, has even spoken out against the assault saying: "Not one of us agree with what she's done at all.
"It’s vile how they've treated that young lass."
Another friend of the girls said the two girls carrying out the attack had been friends with the victim, along with the teenager filming the attack.
Lincolnshire Police has identified the girls and is liaising with Humberside Police in the investigation.

When a study out this month showed that CAM use in kids may be more common than doctors realize, lots of mainstream publications, like Time, covered the news. Why aren’t pediatricians asking about the use of herbs and supplements? They should inquire when taking patient histories, because those remedies may interact with conventional medicines. Will this study change anything? I hope so, but I doubt it. Many more systemic changes have to take place before integrative medicine takes hold. There is more resistance to common sense incorporation of safe and effective natural remedies than you’d think. When I tried to write about the best supplements for kids last year, the editors of a mainstream publication found my well-researched tips too controversial to publish. Read them at your own risk!
Probiotics Found in some yogurts and fermented foods as well as capsules, powders, and liquid form, various strains of these “good bacteria” are considered useful for several childhood ailments. With early treatment, probiotics can help shorten the duration of an episode of diarrhea. Regular use might reduce the frequency of colds and other upper respiratory infections. Studies show that the healthy bugs can help prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea, too. So whenever the pediatrician writes a prescription for an antibiotic drug to treat another problem, ask about supplementing with probiotics to help minimize side effects.
Fish oil omega-3 fatty acids Nutrients in fish are known to benefit brain development, and some data suggest that the fatty acids may even help children with attention deficient hyperactive disorder, autism or dyslexia. However, there are no firm guidelines and research is ongoing. Aim for your child to eat an age-appropriate size serving (about the size of the child’s palm) of fish twice a week. Note the Environmental Protection Agency advises avoiding shark, swordfish, mackerel, and tilefish to limit mercury exposure, and opting for canned light tuna over white albacore. Despite the promising data, some small children just will not get on board with eating fresh, non-fried fish. If your school-aged child falls short, supplement with an EPA/DHA blend of high quality fish oil—about 1 gram per day. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has set an acceptable range for total omega-3 fatty acid intake at 0.6-1.2 grams per day for ages 1 and up. However, IOM admits that the data are lacking in this area, and these may be conservative figures. Consult your child’s doctor.
Ginger Studies show that ginger is effective for nausea and vomiting. Drinking some cooled, freshly brewed organic tea is best for infants, while older children might prefer a cold, lightly sweetened tea. Although ginger is not as well studied for motion sickness, it is commonly used to help prevent car sickness, too.
Chamomile One of the oldest cures for colic, chamomile can soothe and relax children and adults alike. The safest way to administer chamomile to an infant is to make a tea from organic chamomile tea leaves, cool the brew, and then feed her one ounce by bottle. Older children can sip hot or cold tea, with a little sweetener added. Just remember: Do not add honey for children younger than 12 months.
Iron If your child is deficient in any one area, it’s probably iron. Routine supplementation starts at 4 months, but some of the mineral can be absorbed from fortified cereal or infant formula. Needs increase with age and vary by gender; compared with adolescent boys, girls need more and may be at risk for deficiency due to menstrual blood loss.
