    The Renaissance paramount political theme of educating a ruler has generally been recognized as the main concern of the Henry IV plays. The widely established theory, propounded notably by Mr. Dover Wilson and Dr. Tillyard, has been that the education continues through thetwo plays Henry IV and that of the two requisites of ideal kingship (Chivalry and Justice), Prince Hall attains the first in Part One and the second in Part Two. This study proposes that the Prince does attain both qualifications in Part One on the basis that his reconciliation with the King is a reconciliation with justice

    Rotavirus (RV), family reoviridae, is a deadly pathogen that affects young children and infants worldwide by causing severe watery gastroenteritis. Rotavirus Gastroenteritis (RGE) causes 55,000 to 70,000 hospitalizations, 205,000 to 272,000 emergency room visits, and 410,000 physician visits each year, with total direct and indirect costs estimated at approximately $1 billion annually. Rotavirus causes gastroenteritis by producing a viral enterotoxin called NSP4, which infects the mature enterocytes of the villus tip of the small intestine. It negatively affects intestinal disaccharides and Na+ solute symports coupled with water transport. The NSP4 protein is quite complex due to the fact that it oligomerizes with other proteins and it has proven difficult to separate from the other proteins. Our goal is to purify NSP4 using a wide array of laboratory techniques which will assist in discerning the mechanisms of action of NSP4 and any possible ways of treating it. After running several samples through the gravimetric gel filtration column, we were successful in removing several of the impurities and increasing the purity of tNSP4. Through the use of Western Blot and Silver Stain analyses, we were still able to see some bands that were likely contaminants and bands that appeared as multimers of the tNSP4. This means that there are still several unknown compounds bound to the tNSP4

    Comparative Study: From the researcher’s career in education field, it is noticed that there’s no interest in the field of psychological energy for talented (talented) students, their outstanding and there psychological energy (psycho- energy).the researcher has made a comparative study between the talented, outstanding and ordinary students and distinguishing the differences among them. This can be done via application of psycho- energy meter on the three classes and after the use of contrast analysis and (T-Test) for one sample.                       Results show that three were differences with statically significance among the talented, outstanding and ordinary  students, result state that talented students have got (4) degrees in (psycho- energy), (2.60) for outstanding, and (2.62) for ordinary  students .After results explanation, the researcher has put a group of recommendations and suggestions as well as conclusions done by the researcher.  &nbsp

    Study of Cherenkov Light Lateral Distribution Function around the Knee Region in Extensive Air Showers

    The Cherenkov light lateral distribution function (LDF) was simulated with the CORSIKA code, in the energy range (10^13-10^16) eV. This simulation was performed for conditions and configurations of the Tunka EAS Cherenkov array for two primary particles (p and Fe). Basing on the simulated results, many approximated functions are structured for two primary particles and different zenith angles. This allowed us to reconstruct the EAS events, which is, to determine the type and energy of the primary particles that produced showers from signal amplitudes of Cherenkov radiation which measured with Tunka Cherenkov array experiment. Comparison of the calculated LDF of Cherenkov radiation with that measured at the Tunka EAS array shows the ability for identifying of the primary particle that initiated the EAS cascades determining of its primary energy around the knee region of the cosmic ray spectrum.Comment: 13 Pages, 8 figures, Submitted and accepted at the Serbian Astronomical Journa

    A New Organic Acid to Stimulate Deep Wells in Carbonate Reservoirs

    Carbonate acidizing has been carried out using HCl-based stimulation fluids for decades. However, at high temperatures, HCl does not produce acceptable results because of its fast reaction, acid penetration, and hence surface dissolution, and its high corrosion rate. As a result, alternatives to HCl have been investigated including organic acids. In this work, the reaction of a new organic acid with calcite was investigated using the rotating disk apparatus and coreflood setup. The organic acid was obtained using both a phosphorous-based and iron-based catalyst. The rate of reaction of a 10 wt% solution of the new organic acid was measured using the rotating disk apparatus at temperatures up to 250°F. Low-permeability Indiana limestone (1-5 md) samples of 1.5 in. diameter and 0.75 in. length were used. The effect of disk rotational speed (100-1,500 rpm) was investigated. Samples of the reacted fluid were collected periodically and calcium and iron concentrations were measured using Inductively-Coupled Plasma, and used to determine the acid-rock reaction rate and to study the possibility of precipitation. Also, coreflood experiments at different injection rates and a temperature of 300°F were performed to study the effect of the acid on wormhole propagation in calcite. Low-permeability Indiana limestone (1-10 md) cores used in these experiments have a diameter of 1.5-in. and a length of 6 in. For the phosphorus-based acid, experimental results showed that the rate of calcite dissolution at 205°F was controlled only by the rate of mass transfer of the acid to the surface. However, at 250°F, the reaction was controlled by both mass transfer and by the kinetics of the surface reaction. At 205°F, the reaction rate varied from 7.79E-07 to 4.47E-06 gmol/cm^(2).s, while at 250°F, the range was between 5.82E-07 and 2.72E-06 gmol/cm^(2).s. In coreflood experiments, the phosphorus-based acid caused calcium phosphate precipitation at 300°F, while the iron-based acid achieved breakthrough. Also, the optimum injection rate of the iron-based acid was determined to be 2.0 cm^(3)/min. This study summarizes the results obtained and recommends the use of the new organic acid for field applications in calcite reservoirs

    Translation And Arabicization Strategies Of English Scientific And Technical Terms Into Arabic And Their Dissemination In The Arab Press

    Arabic Language Academies (ALAs) have made every possible effort to introduce terminologies in Arabicized forms into the Arabic language. However, the academy‟s Arabicized terms have not been well distributed in the language-related sectors, including the media. This study aims to investigate strategies of coining Arabicized scientific and technical terms, as well as the extent of implementation of these terms in the Arab press to support the academy‟s efforts. The linguistic and extralinguistic factors, which affect the dissemination of the ALA‟s Arabicized terminology in the Arab press, are also investigated

    Geometric Analysis of the Suggested Derlock Dam, DuhokReservoir using a Digital Elevation Model

    Several application programs, including Global Mapper, Surfer and GIS, which deal with spatial analysis and extract spatial data and information for land features, were used to extract geometric elements of the proposed Derlock Dam reservoir based on the digital elevation model (DEM) with a discriminating ability of 10 m. It started at a level of 740 m at the site of the dam and reached a height of 900 m above sea level with an interval of 10 m. The relationship of the level with the negative volumetric and negative spatial elements showed that there is a large difference in the values of Negative Volume (NV), Negative Planar Area (NPA), and negative surface area (NSA) at the level of the reservoir (900 m), which is a positive factor in choosing the topograph Negative Surface Area depression, as it shows a significant decrease in the surface area (evaporation area) and the wet area (the area of penetration). This corresponds to a significant increase in the volume of the reservoirs, and indicates that the depression is deep and small in area, as well as the final economic feasibility of the project. It consists of two reservoirs, which will allow a strategy to maneuver the amount of water storage, as well as reduce the risks of flood waves and sediments that will be deposited behind the dam gate. The reservoir volume reached 900 m, 3611048537 billion m3, distributed among reservoirs near the dam with volumes of 445189305 million/m3 and 3166195232 billion/m3 for the reservoir far from the dam site, because the Upper Zab River does not have dams, so it will be able to build important reservoirs and control the river water during floods.
