Face Identification is an important research topic in the field of computer vision and pattern recognition and has become a very active research area in recent decades. Recently multiwavelet-based neural networks (multiwavenets) have been used for function approximation and recognition, but to our best knowledge it has not been used for face Identification. This paper presents a novel approach for the Identification of human faces using Back-Propagation Adaptive Multiwavenet. The proposed multiwavenet has a structure similar to a multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network with three layers, but the activation function of hidden layer is replaced with multiscaling functions. In experiments performed on the ORL face database it achieved a

Three Staphylococcus aureus isolates were selected after screening on nutrient agar
media amended with 100μg/ml of five heavy metals chlorides (i.e: Aluminum Al+2, Iron
Fe+2, Lead Pb+2, Mercury Hg+2 and Zinc Zn+2) from those isolates one S. aureus (S3) isolate
was selected depending on its resistance to all heavy metals chloride. Minimum inhibitory
concentration (MIC) for this isolate was 1000μg/ml for all tested metals chlorides except
Hg+2 (300μg/ml). Growth of S. aureus (S3) was not affected in presence of pbCl2 and AlCl2
for 72hrs; however, it was affected by ZnCl2 and FeCl2 during incubation period while
mercury causes no bacterial growth. In response to various temperatures bacterial isolate

Dust storm in Iraq is a climatic phenomenon. Dust storm data from 1992 to 2009 and data of main climatic parameters rainfall (1942 to 2010) and air temperature (1992 to 2009) of Erbil Meteorological Station were analysed. Results show an increase of the number of suspended and rising dust as well as dust storms with time. An average of the above mentioned period of all types of dust storms is individually compared with the last five years. Again, there is a noticeable increasing of the number of storms. From the results it can be seen that the months May, June, July and August have the most frequent dust conditions while months January, February, November and December the least.

Background: women with acute coronary syndrome have increased in-hospital morbidity & mortality as compared with men following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It remains unclear if this difference secondary to the sex or other confounding variables.

Patients and Methods: We sought to examine the characteristics and outcomes of 71 consecutive women (49.2%) and men (50.7) undergoing PCI at The Iraqi Center of Heart Diseases from October 2005 to March 2006.

Results: There were significant differences in the baseline characteristics between both sexes. Women more frequently had SVD(single vessel desiease) (25.7% vs. 16.6%) and 2VD (37.1% vs. 16.6%) while Men wer

The results of the present investigation indicated that exposing the eggs of Dacus ciliatus to incremented doses of gamma ray, showed that eggs were highly sensitive. The hatchability was significantly reduced with the increase of doses, in comparison with the control treatment.
The negative effect of irradiation was continued to the subsequent developmental stages, and on adult emergence and longevity. The dose of 10 Gy reduced significantly the fecundity and hatchability at all mating types, and there was no potential to induce complete sterility in the emerged adults. Prepupal larvae were less radiosensitive than the eggs. Adult emergence at 10 and 20 Gy was 88 and 56% respectively. The fecundity was reduced significantly in two

Field observations revealed the occurrence of volcaniclstic units (pyroclastic
units) within the Muqdadyia Formation (Pliocene) in Injana area, southern Hemrin
anticline; these rock-units located along Tayawi, Magrin and Zarloukh sections and
has been called as a volcaniclastic unit of Muqdadyia Formation.
the facies analysis for the volcaniclastic units is part of succession which was
deposited in a fluvio-laucustrine environment. This succession is divided into eight
facies on the basis of deposition and transportion settings into:- 1-Primary tuff rock
(non-reworking), this represent the surge facies (A1) and fallout facies (A2) which

Background: Urinary tract infections are one of the most common bacterial illnesses among the public and in hospital settings. A prevalent nosocomial disease is catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI). The risk of infection increases with urinary catheterization, making it easier for Escherichia coli to colonize the urinary system. Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) specifically adapts to survive in challenging urinary tract conditions. Treating CAUTI accurately and effectively can be difficult. An important health concern nowadays is drug-resistant bacteria.

Microwave power has a more significant effect on cracking with less energy consumption. The microwave power and the catalysis increase the racking rate and the conversion at lower temperatures.  Accordingly, the generated hot spots in the catalyst offer a suitable condition for cracking (high rate and low temperature). The microwave technique was used to conduct the cracking of heavy naphtha. A set of experiments was done with microwave power (750–1250 W), preheating temperatures (150–250 ˚C), and space velocities (2–6 l/hr) with and without nitrogen injection. The nitrogen injection enhanced the conversion for all situations. The best result has a conversion of 47.37% with nitrogen injection at microwave power of 1250 W, a flow
