Incidence of flood has been on the increase in Ilorin for sometime; and this exemplifies the problem operating in most urban centres in Nigeria. Increase in runoff production in an urbanized catchment is a function, among other factors of to increase in percentage paved area brought about by deforestation activities and poor environmental attitude of the people. This study examines the relationship between runoff discharge and basin characteristics in Ilorin. Data used were collected directly from the field over a period of one calendar year. Rainfall data were collected in each basin using a standard rainguage of 20cm orifice while basin discharge was collected twice daily (8.00am and 6.30pm) using fabricated staff gauge graduated in centimeter. Basin morphometric attributes were compu...

This paper empirically examined the level of Japanese work organization and management techniques as practiced in PROTON. It has been argued that the Japanese work organization has been practiced and transferred more successful in the automobile industry because of its higher technicality. The PROTON-MITSUBISHI alliance has now been going for more than two decades (since 1982). Although PROTON has not yet been able to produce its own engine unless the CamPro engine with Waja model in 1999, this alliance is the best case to test the extent Japanese work organization is practiced to test the degree of transfer in the best sector and the best project to be studied. The discussion on Japanese influence on PROTON manufacturing systems to access the role of technological transfer done by Mits...

I think gardening is like the antithesis to this terrible trend of people just looking at the television," said [George Ball Jr.], president of the United States' largest retail seed company, W. Atlee Burpee & Co. "When you hit 40 your body changes, and if you let it sit there it's going to turn into Jell-O. Ball is talking in the study of the 18th-century farmhouse that was purchased by W. Atlee Burpee in 1888, and he seems to offer a few glances to the corner where Burpee would work at his desk. Ball, himself the scion of a well-known seed business, Ball Horticultural Co., became head of the Burpee company in 1991 and purchased Fordhook Farm from Burpee heirs in 1999. Burpee's corporate headquarters, where seeds are packed and dispatched, is 15 kilometres away in Warminster. Muc...

This article is to analyze the process and significance of the secularization of western choral music.

A major debate neglected by accounting historians is the importance of landlords in the English agricultural revolution. Accounting evidence from the historical literature is used to test Marx's theory that, from around 1750, England's landlords played a pivotal role by adopting and then spreading the capitalist mentality and social relations by enclosures and changes in the management of their estates and tenants. It gives an accounting interpretation of Marx's theory of rent and argues that the available evidence supports his view that the conversion of English landlords to capitalism underlay the later stages of the agricultural revolution. The conclusion explains the linkages in Marx's theory between the agricultural and industrial revolutions and calls on accounting historians to c...
