Flora of Azerbaijan 
 Flora of Azerbaijan or Vegetation of Azerbaijan is about the plants, trees, flowers which can be found in Azerbaijan.
Flora of Azerbaijan 
 Due to the different climate types in Azerbaijan which range from subtropical along the Caspian Sea coast, temperate further inland, and continental and subarctic in the mountains, the flora is much richer in the number of species than the flora of the other republics of the South Caucasus.
Flora of Azerbaijan 
 Another reason why Azerbaijan has many plant species, many of which are relicts of the Tertiary period, is because they were not affected by Pliocene and Pleistocene glaciations and did not become extinct.
Flora of Azerbaijan 
 The richness of Azerbaijan's flora and the many types of its vegetation also results from its geography and topography that provide many different habitats, like mountains, plains, bodies of water, etc.

Dodo bird verdict

Dodo bird verdict 
 Saul Rosenzweig introduced the terminology in 1936 to illustrate the notion that all therapies are equally effective.
Dodo bird verdict 
 In the setting, some characters become wet and, in order to dry themselves, the Dodo Bird decided to issue a competition: everyone was to run around the lake until they were dry.
Dodo bird verdict 
 When they asked the Dodo who had won, he thought long and hard and then said, "Everybody has won and all must have prizes."
Dodo bird verdict 
 In the case of psychotherapies, Rosenzweig argued that common factors were more important than specific technical differences, so that (on the Dodo bird conjecture) all therapies are winners; they all produce equally effective outcomes.
Dodo bird verdict 
 In 1974, Lester Lubarsky, Barton Singer and Lise Luborsky published the results of one of the first comparative studies: They showed that there were only few significant differences in the outcome of different psychotherapies.
Dodo bird verdict 
 After the study was published, there were many other similar studies: some agreed with the Dodo bird verdict, others didn't.
Dodo bird verdict 
 In very basic terms, the Dodo bird debate is focused on the following: Can different components of specific treatmenrs lead to the fact that some of these treatments perform much better than others, for specific disorders?
Dodo bird verdict 
 Those supporing the Dodo bird verdict say that all treatments are equivalent, because they all have "common factors".
Dodo bird verdict 
 Critics say that the different therapies use different techniques, and these differences are important.
Dodo bird verdict 
 For this reason, for a given problem, some therapies produce results that are not equivalent to the others.
Dodo bird verdict 
 For one, policymakers have to know how effective each existing psychotherapy is in order to be able to decide which therapies should be supported.
Dodo bird verdict 
 This controversy may also lead government officials to no longer fund psychological treatments and other public health measures.

Akhand Sindhu Sansar 
 For example, if you read any book written by them,  The Persians and Arabs have written Sindh as India, Sindhu as Hindu and the British have changed the name of Sindh (Indus) to India and Indus.

 In fact (Aryan) and its opposite word (non-Aryan) is Pratakri and Sindhi which means intelligent people of understanding.

Akhand Sindhu Sansar 
 The fact that Sindh (Sindhu) has been renamed is a fact that these invaders have deliberately tried their best not to leave its name.
Akhand Sindhu Sansar 
 For example, if you read any book of Arabs and Persians,  I have justified the renaming of Sindh (Sindhu) as there is a problem of pronunciation in Persian, therefore Sindh is written as Hind, Sindhu is written as Hindu.
Akhand Sindhu Sansar
