The childhood stage is considered the most important stage of all the stages through
the human being’s life. In this stage the human being will be more affected by the various
factors that surround him/her. The first five years of his/her life leave a great impact not only
on the human being personality, but also on his/her whole life. Therefore, it is worthwhile tobe concerned with and focus at the raising up and the teaching of the child during the
childhood stage.
The mission of raising up children in this era - the era of globalization and information
bursting or news flooding – has become a very difficult or even an impossible mission.
Furthermore, not only in the Arabic world, but also all over the world, this era has become a
depressing and a disappointing era to many serious parents and teachers, who seek the fact
and care about both their children’s benefit and the benefit of those who raise them up.
Children are seen to be more accepting to and more connecting with the building up of
civilization. The parent’s attentiveness and the level of their educational maturity will define
the level of family evolution and its role in affecting the child’s personality.
Eventually, all these matters go back to the shortage in the environmental attentiveness
and its relation to the health of the human beings. All these leads to the problem discussed in
this research which is the revealing of the attentiveness by the problem of technological media
poisoning of the children’s parents and their teachers.
The aim of this research is to be acquainted with:
The attentiveness of the technological media poisoning in the members of the sample.
The attentiveness of the technological media poisoning in the kindergarten teachers.
The differences in the attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
between the kindergarten children’s parents and the children’s teacher.
This research is limited the children’s parents and teachers of the kindergartens in
Baghdad for the academic year 2012-2013.
In order to achieve the goal of this research, the researcher has performed a scale of the
attentiveness of the technological media poisoning according to the scientific steps in the
construction of the psychological scales.
To approve the truth of the scale to be introduced to a number of experts. After
straightening some of the scale items, (33) the of the scale has been approved.
Moreover, the researcher uses statistical analysis for the items by calculating the
distinctive power, which proves that all the items of the scale are distinctive and statistically
significant. The researcher tries to find out the relation between the degree of the item and the
total degree.
The validity of the scale has been approved by repeating the test. The validity factor is
(0.86), which proves that the validity factor is reliable. In the application of the Falkronbach
formula, it has been found that the validity factor is (0.93). This proves that the validity factor
is reliable.
The scale has been applied on (600) members of the sample, whichcontains randomly
chosen children’s parents and kindergarten teachers.
The result of the research are as follows:
All the members of the sample have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
The children’s parents have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
The kindergarten teachers have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
There are differences in attentiveness between all the members of the sample to the
benefit of the mothers side.
The researcher has introduced a number of recommendations and suggestions, which
are going to be discussed later.
The background subtraction is a leading technique adopted for detecting the moving objects in video surveillance systems. Various background subtraction models have been applied to tackle different challenges in many surveillance environments. In this paper, we propose a model of pixel-based color-histogram and Fuzzy C-means (FCM) to obtain the background model using cosine similarity (CS) to measure the closeness between the current pixel and the background model and eventually determine the background and foreground pixel according to a tuned threshold. The performance of this model is benchmarked on CDnet2014 dynamic scenes dataset using statistical metrics. The results show a better performance against the state-of the art

Encryption of data is translating data to another shape or symbol which enables people only with an access to the secret key or a password that can read it. The data which are encrypted are generally referred to as cipher text, while data which are unencrypted are known plain text. Entropy can be used as a measure which gives the number of bits that are needed for coding the data of an image. As the values of pixel within an image are dispensed through further gray-levels, the entropy increases. The aim of this research is to compare between CAST-128 with proposed adaptive key and RSA encryption methods for video frames to determine the more accurate method with highest entropy. The first method is achieved by applying the "CAST-128" and

The research aims to design a narrow-band frequency drive amplifier (1.5GHz -1.6GHz), which is used to boost the transmitter amplifier's input signal or amplify the GPS, GlONASS signals at the L1 band.
The Power Amplifier printed circuit board (PCB) prototype was designed using InGaP HBT homogeneous technology transistor and GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) transistor. Two models have been compared; one of the models gave 16dB gain, and the other gave 23dB when using an input power signal (-15dBm). The PCB consumes 2.4W of power and has a physical dimension of 11 x 4 cm.
The deterioration of buried sewers during their lifetime can be affected by several factors leading to bad performance and can damage the infrastructure similar to other engineering structures. The Hydraulic deterioration of the buried sewers caused by sewer blockages while the structural deterioration caused by sewer collapses due to sewer specifications and the surrounding soil characteristics and the groundwater level. The main objective of this research is to develop deterioration models, which are used to predict changes in sewer condition that can provide assessment tools for determining the serviceability of sewer networks in Baghdad city. Two deterioration models were developed and tested using statistical software SPSS, the

This disease could affect the oral health; as a result asthmatic patients may have a higher risk of developing dental diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the caries experience and salivary elements among asthmatic patients using Ventoline inhaler. Materials and methods: The study group consisted of 30 male asthmatic patients with an age range 20-24years (under Ventoline inhaler). The control group includes 30 subjects matching with study group in age and gender. Plaque and DMFS index were used for recording caries experience. Stimulated salivary samples were collected and then salivary flow rate, S-IgA and salivary elements

This study aims to show, the strength of steel beam-concrete slab system without using shear connectors (known as a non-composite action), where the effect of the friction force between the concrete slab and the steel beam has been investigated, by using finite element simulation.
The proposed finite element model has been verified based on comparison with an experimental work. Then, the model was adopted to study the system strength with a different steel beam and concrete slab profile. ABAQUS has been adopted in the preparation of all numerical models for this study.
After validation of the numerical models, a parametric study was conducted, with linear and non-linear Regression analysis. An equation re

OpenStreetMap (OSM) represents the most common example of online volunteered mapping applications. Most of these platforms are open source spatial data collected by non-experts volunteers using different data collection methods. OSM project aims to provide a free digital map for all the world. The heterogeneity in data collection methods made OSM project databases accuracy is unreliable and must be dealt with caution for any engineering application. This study aims to assess the horizontal positional accuracy of three spatial data sources are OSM road network database, high-resolution Satellite Image (SI), and high-resolution Aerial Photo (AP) of Baghdad city with respect to an analogue formal road network dataset obtain
