A field experiment was conducted at the field of the Dept. of Field Crop Sci. / College of Agriculture / University of Baghdad . The objective was to determine the values of relative constant of three – way and double crosses of maize . Ten inbreds were used and crossed during spring and fall seasons of 2009 to produce three - way and double crosses , and ten hybrids were taken from each group . The ten hybrids were grown and selfed during spring 2010 to produce 2 seed . Three way and double crosses were sown with their parents and 2 seed during fall 2010 in RCBD with four replicates . Leaf area , total dry matter , row/ear , grain/ear , grain weight and grain weight/plant of hybrids , parents and 2 plants were taken . Results showed that the relative constant obtained was applicable to estimate ̅2 of hybrids . However , leaf area was different in values of ̅2 , as compared to that observed in the field . The relative constant values were different as trait and parent number of crosses differ . The obtained relative constant of grain weight/plant was (0.576) and (0.556) , grain weight (0.521) and (0.516) , grain /ear (0.571) and (0.554) , raw / ear (0.509) and (0.502) , total dry matter . plant -1 (0.553) and (0.541) and leaf area (0.508) and (0.495) in three way and double crosses , respectively . It was concluded that the application of relative constant , to predict parent means ( ̅), ̅2 and parent number (n) was fit as compared to Wright's equation [ ̅2= ̅1 – ( ̅1 - ̅)/n ] . Accordingly , it was recommended to use the formula [ ̅2 = χ ( ̅1 + ̅)] to predict ̅2 of hybrids , [ ̅ = ( ̅ 2 / χ ) – ̅ 1] to predict ̅, and [ n = ( ̅1 - ̅ ) / ( ̅1 - ̅2 ) ] to predict number of inbreds included in the hybrid
تعد صناعة السمنت في العراق من اقدم الصناعات الحديثة واكثرها تطورا وتقدما ومن اقواها تاثيرا في الاقتصاد القومي. واذ توفر في صناعة السمنت العراقي كافة المستلزمات الناجحة من حيث توفر المواد الاولية والخبرات الفنية والتقنية واسواق ثابتة وراسخة محليا وعالميا فقد كان من المفروض ان يتم التوسع في هذه الصناعة، وان التخطيط لهذه الصناعة امرا ضروريا خاصة وان مادة السمنت هي احدى اهم المواد الرئيسة التي يؤثر توفره

The city of Karbala is one of the most important holy places for visitors and pilgrims from the Islamic faith, especially through the Arabian visit, when crowds of millions gather to commemorate the martyrdom of Imam Hussein. Offering services and medical treatments during this time is very important, especially when the crowds head to their destination (the holy shrine of Imam Hussein (a.s)). In recent years, the Arba'in visit has witnessed an obvious growth in the number of participants. The biggest challenge is the health risks, and the preventive measures for both organizers and visitors. Researchers identified various challenges and factors to facilitating the Arba'in visit.
