Eyes of Optimism Look for Freedom in Langston Hughes' Selected Poems
...Show More Authors

The current study tackles how slavery and racial segregation, which have obviously made an enormous impact in the United States of America for many years, can be defeated through optimism. The study opens with an introduction that clarifies some background about Langston Hughes as a poet who writes against slavery and oppression done to the American Blacks during an era which was known for racial segregation in the United States of America. The poet sheds light , in his poetry, upon the role of African Americans in activating hope and optimism to get freedom which has been reached at the end. The first section of the study analyzes the meaning of slavery and segregation as reflected in some selected poems, showing the oppressive face of the Whites against the Blacks. The poems exhibit simplicity as the poet's main strategy to raise one of the most sensitive cases in history; that is slavery. The second section comes next where the poet works on instigating his people towards the necessity of keeping on optimism as the key that will lead to man's freedom . Finally , the conclusion that sums up Hughes' message of how African Americans must convey the optimistic view throughout the African American history for eternal freedom.       

   African Americans have suffered from racial discrimination for years as they have been used as slaves. They also have to face an inner migration from the South of America where they are used as workers in the farms which belong to the White owners , and to some blacks who managed to have prosperity at the expense of the poor Blacks. Poverty has dominated their life and most of them have become jobless , in addition to being uneducated. The poet writes his poems in time that literature , in general, and poetry , in particular, represent the spring from which the Blacks start their revolution against racism. He presents the African spirit of their ancestors who are known for their struggle and strife making their cause extend to include the next generations. Optimism and hope can be seen in these old spirits as a motivation for the present and the future as well. Hughes depends on some images that are taken from the Blacks' history with other images are seen in the present in order to build the future that the Blacks themselves look for ; the future of having freedom and equality. Being desperate is something dangerous and cannot lead to build up an optimistic generation in the African-American community. The poet's message is to run after the eye which looks at the optimistic spirit which put the reader in the position of evaluating the African-American history that celebrates the human strife in the past and the present by reminding his people of hope and optimism as the main source for their battle against racial discrimination.

Valuation the Impact of Risks on the Goals and the Safety of Construction Projects in Iraq
...Show More Authors

Construction projects have a special nature and affect them many factors making them exposed to multiple risks as a result of the length of the implementation period and the multiplicity of stages, starting from the decision stage through implementation until the final delivery, which leads to increased uncertainty and the likelihood of risk.
The process of analysis and risk management is one of the effective and productive methods that are used in managing the construction projects for the purpose of increasing the chances of ending the project successfully in terms of cost, time and quality and at the lowest possible problems.

The research aims first to the effective planning for analysis and risk managemen

Isolation and identification of yersinia enterocolitica from local ovine meat in the middle region of Iraq
...Show More Authors

Yersinia enterocolitica has ranked a third among the pathogens that most frequently cause gastrointestinal disorders transmitted to humans through food materials, especially contaminated meats. The meat infected with Yersinia enterocolitica had no change in apparent texture or smell. The aim of this research is to survey the frequency of Y. enterocolitica in ovine meat, compare their ratio of infection between the season, To carry out this study (125) samples of local ovine meat were collected by random sampling from the middle region of Iraq. The samples were divided into two groups steak and mince, then many microbiological tests (culture, & staining, biochemical Tests Api 20E, Vitik 2 and species-specific PCR amplicon for 16S RNA gene) w

Cytotoxic Effect of Aqueous Extract of Anastatica hierochuntica L. on AMN-3 Cell Line in vitro
...Show More Authors

Anastatica hierochuntica L. is distributed throughout Arabain Peninsula, and elsewhere it is locally called "Kuffe Maryam" .All parts of the plant are used in folk medicine. This study amid to investigate the effect of aqueous extract of anastatica hierochunctica L. on the cancer cell lines AMN-3. Anti cancer activity of aqueous extract of anastatica hierochunctica L. showed anticancer activity against AMN-3 cell line for twelve concentrations (0.04, 0.09, 0.195, 0.39, 0.78, 1.56, 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100) mg/mL in comparison with negative control.

Influence of the variation in the Hubbard parameter (U) on activation energies of CeO2-catalysed reactions
...Show More Authors

Accurate description of thermodynamic, structural, and electronic properties for bulk and surfaces of ceria (CeO2) necessitates the inclusion of the Hubbard parameter (U) in the density functional theory (DFT) calculations to precisely account for the strongly correlated 4f electrons. Such treatment is a daunting task when attempting to draw a potential energy surface for CeO2-catalyzed reaction. This is due to the inconsistent change in thermo-kinetics parameters of the reaction in reference to the variation in the U values. As an illustrative example, we investigate herein the discrepancy in activation and reaction energies for steps underlying the partial and full hydrogenation of acetylene over the CeO2(111) surface. Overall, we find th

focuses on studying special and temporal variations of the atmosphere thickness above Iraqaccording
to this study, it is concluded that atmosphere thickness above Iraq increases
towards south with an average of 100 M as compared with north of Iraq. Regarding the
temporal variations, it is concluded that atmosphere thickness during hot months. In July, for
example, the atmosphere thickness becomes thicker than in January with an average of
