The rapid success and the field dilation of Daish organization in both Iraq and Syria make academic institutes and research centers to pay attention to its propaganda means to gain its public opinion, and to further investigation about new methods employed by this organization to disseminate its messages to the public, particularly young people in large areas of the world. This organization uses traditional propaganda techniques on psychological war and its levels, social network sites and platforms that are distributed online.

1- Daish organization realizes the importance and power of media to gain public opinion, supporters and sympathizers since the beginning of its appearance representative by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
2- Daish has additional power factors after its dilation and occupied cities in Iraq and Syria as a result of the growth of its financial resources and it polarizes new technical experts.
3-The propaganda system of Daish uses various recruit techniques and psychological operations to make youth, women and children be involved to expand its supporters by which it implement special armed operations
4- Daish has used the preachers, imams of mosques, social networking sites, info graphics, and electronic forums as a means to implicate recruits and teach them ways of belonging to this organization as well as how to make explosives via the internet.

6- Daish organization depends not only on mass communication through its new and traditional means, but also uses direct means of persuasions by training preachers and some individual practices to raise enthusiasm and passion by using the normal cassette or compact disk ( CD).
7- It uses the deceptive style and bright words to create a historical depth of its formation and show an alleged link of caliphate with the Islamic caliphate in the era of the Prophet Muhammad and his Caliphs.
8- Daish relies on persuasive techniques of psychology in order to lure young people and women, to recruit its supporters.
9- Daish shows the children, who call them cubs caliphs, in its propaganda through a series of short films. These cubs› caliphs are involved in military, field, and psychological training programs.
In Australia, most of the existing buildings were designed before the release of the Australian standard for earthquake actions in 2007. Therefore, many existing buildings in Australia lack adequate seismic design, and their seismic performance must be assessed. The recent earthquake that struck Mansfield, Victoria near Melbourne elevated the need to produce fragility curves for existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in Australia. Fragility curves are frequently utilized to assess buildings’ seismic performance and it is defined as the demand probability surpassing capacity at a given intensity level. Numerous factors can influence the results of the fragility assessment of RC buildings. Among the most important factors that can affe

The influence of each anticipated factor (the acidity of the cooking medium, type of acids normally used in cuisines namely acetic and tartaric acids, various cooking temperatures, influence of the presence of sodium chloride salt, the effect of cooking oil, and the length of time of cooking) was studied thoroughly as a function of aluminum degraded out of the aluminum foils to the medium. The experimental samples were digested with nitric acid upon fulfillment of examining each factor separately before quantifying aluminum with the sensitive technique of atomic absorption spectroscopy. The outcomes of the study have shown that t

Materials and Methods. Four hundred and forty pieces of Elasto-Force and Super Elasto-Force elastomeric chains were divided into two control and eight experimental groups. The pieces were stretched to 25 mm on pins mounted on an acrylic block and stored in distilled water at 37°C. The experimental groups were immersed in four different types of mouthwash for one minute twice a day throughout the test period. Ten continuous thermocycles per day between cold and hot water baths (5–55°C) were carried out. Forces were measured at six-time intervals (in

Background: The use of the cone beam computed tomography for analysing the position of the greater palatine foramen in relation to various anatomical landmarks is crucial in dentistry. The aims of the current study, firstly is to determine the greater palatine foramen position in relation to various anatomical landmarks by using cone beam computed tomography and secondly is to make a comparison of the measurements according to side, gender, and age. Materials and methods: This prospective study included 60 Iraqi patients (28males and 32 females) who selected according to availability of Inclusion criteria, which include age range (21 - 60 years), with no dentofacial deformities or pathological lesion at the maxilla. All patients had inform
