The emergence and spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was a public health problem worldwide that causes nosocomial and community infections. Forty three isolates (71.66%) were characterized as S.aureus, were isolated from 60 different clinical specimens (blood, nose, wound, urine and vaginal) collected from patients from different hospitals of Baghdad. All isolates were resistant (100%) to Aztreonam, Carbenicillin, Cifixime, Cefoxitin, Ceftazidime, and showed high resistance to each of Methicillin, Oxacillin, Ampicillin and Penicillin . the MRSA isolates were typed based on (SCCmec) typing ,the result revealed that SCCmecIVa was the most common in isolates (41.86%), following type IVc (20.93%), type II(16.27%). Virulence factors were identified to detect genes encoding for Hlg,Pvl,ClfA,Tsst-1 and Eta, and the result showed the most prevalent gene was hlg (65.11%), following pvl (53.48%), clfA (51.16%), tsst-1(18.60%),eta (11.62%). The virulence genes profiles were observed, and the most frequent was clfA-hlg-pvl (23.25%), clfA-hlg-pvl-tsst-1 (6.97%),clfA-hlg-tsst-1(4.65%).Analysis of genetic similarity relationship, showed the isolates of S.aureus were classified into two main clusters . This result indicates that there a diversity in virulence genes profiles among MRSA isolates according to SCCmec types, and SCCmec IVa carried hlg, pvl , clfA genes was the most prevalent in Baghdad hospital isolates .

Sami Michael and Eli Amir - two Israeli writers born in Iraq and of the same generation (Sami Makhail was born in Baghdad in 1926 and Eli Amir in 1937). They wrote in their novels, among other things, about Orientalism , love and femininity. They both lived wild, extroverted lives. They did not shy away from experiencing anything new that came their way, rebelled against conventions and acted provocatively; they enjoyed the shock and amazement that evoked around them. While trying to find their place in different family settings, they chose to present two Arab Christian heroines. The narrator in Jasmine is the speaker Noori-Eli himself. While the narrator of “Trumpet in the Wadi” is Huda the heroine herself. Both ar
