The study population consisted of the nurses working at the Kamyab Hospital in the city of Mashhad. After the collection and analysis of the data, 12 hypotheses out of the total 13 were confirmed and the main results were as follows: The Pearson correlation between entrepreneurial characteristics of the personnel and their job satisfaction turned out to be 0.578 which indicates a quite strong meaningful relationship between the two variables. For the second hypothesis, the Pearson correlation of the entrepreneurial characteristics of the female participants and their job satisfaction turned out to be 0.592 in comparison to 0.601 for the male participants, both of which showed a strong correlation between the two variables. The results of the t-test indicated that there was no meaningful difference between male and female participants in terms of their self-confidence, internal control, positive attitude, need of success, need of independence and prudence whereas a meaningful difference existed between male and female participants in terms of creativity, innovation, tendency towards economic welfare and risk-taking. The male participants enjoyed the later characteristics more than females. Furthermore, a meaningful difference was observed between the two genders in terms of the average entrepreneurial morale where male population showed a higher level compared to female participants.

But according to importance of expansion of green space in cities, instead of the development and expansion of these spaces in isfahan which was someday regarded as the model of Islamic garden –town with appropriate green space, the focus in the recent years have been more on the development of framework- residential, commercial, structures and roads, parking lots etc. but among the prior ones and roads have the sixth rank in planning. Therefore, it is clear that the current approach has a one – dimensional theory for planning and using all these users and the relation between these spaces with each other has been almost forgotten. For instance, in the current conditions, many of city planners focus on development of cross over and streets to diminish traffic, but regarding the high demands for travel, volume of automobile arrival, easy automobile buying and owning, the preference of citizens for using personal cars and the gradual increase in urban travels due in appropriate access to urban services, the expansion of streets and changing urban textures in to cross avers and devoting a substantial part of urban budgets to creating roads, highways , autobahns and parking lots, to what extent we can have control over cities , and isn’t it the time take aside the conventional planning for urban lands and do something to solve these problems? If the current process continues, soon in looking downward from the sky to this city, well see a black city with black links connected together, not a green city with green links connected together .so this paper analyzes the irregular increase in roads and crossovers and parking lots with a comparing – analyzing method and in turn studies the green spaces with a statistical method and finally provides some procedures to solve this problem, using modern components of urban planning.In between urban land use, green spaces are part of the frameworks of the cities, which we refer to as the animate part of the framework structure of the city, and in correlation with inanimate part of the city; they create the texture and appearance of it.

The paper determines the indices of teaching organization in five domains, teachable point of view, ideas, values, emotional energy and edge. In this study the method is descriptive- survey. The statistical population of this research are all the faculty members of public medical and non medical universities in 1385- 1386. The sample consist of 345 managers and faculty members who were selected through random cluster multi stages sampling, but 315 took part in the research. In order to gather the data, a 74 item researcher made questionnaire on the basis of Tichy's teaching organization theory in the form of Lykert's 5 degree scale with a reliability of 0.87 is used. One sample t test is used to analyze the data. The findings of this research indicates that the mean scores of the subjects about the application of teaching organization indices are all less than the mean of criterion (3) and there is a significant difference between all the means of indices. But the examinees' responses regarding desirability in applying the teaching organization indices in universities with score mean of 4.25 is much more than the mean criterion. The observed t revealed that the differences of means in regarding all indices were significant.The purpose of this article is to survey the amount of application and desirability of teaching organization's indices in public universities of Iran.
