Probably a joke .. ?

While walking, an engineer, a system administrator and their boss found a lamp. They rubbed it, and lo and behold; a genie appeared.


"You can have three wishes, but since there are three of you, I'm going to give each one of you one wish," spoke the genie in a large, booming voice.


The engineer said, "I wish to be working for NASA in making the first spaceship to transport astronauts to Mars." With that, the engineer disappeared in a puff of smoke.


The system administrator said, "I wish to be in an island filled with machines that never crash so I could study from them and learn". The administrator smiles as he vanish in a puff of smoke.


The boss said "I want both of them back in the office by Monday."

-- Unfortunately I can not recall where I found it online, but it spent a good long time on my HDD.

لعل الله يهدينا أو يهدي بنا

من أجمل المبادئ التي أنا مؤمنة ً بها في الحياة  لا حيلة في الرزق، ولاشفاعة في الموت، ولا راحة في الدنيا، ولا سلامة من كلام الناس ارض بما قسم الله لك، تكن أغنى الناس لا ضرر ولا ضرار حسنـًا، الناس في حياتك، المال، الزواج، البنون، الصحة، الطعام والشراب، الجمال، وكثير مما لا يحضُر ذهني إنما هو من الأرزاق، وقد يقضي المرء طوال حياته يكابد أشخاص تسبب له المشاكل، أو فقيرا،  أو وحيدا، أو دون ذرية، أو مريضًا، أو لا يرى نفسه جميلا. فالرزق من عند الله، وقد تبقى بعض الأرزاق على حالها أو يبدلها الله، فلا حيلة لنا في ضيق أو وسع الرزق، لكننا للأسف نتبنى ثقافة تقييم أنفسنا والآخرين بناء على ما لا حيلة لنا فيه، ونقع فريسة لفخ هذا التقييم فنبني عليه بالتالي تصرفاتنا.  هل ضيق أو وسع أي من الأرزاق رضا أم غضب أم بلاء من الله؟  الله أعلم، ولكن ما أنا على يقين منه هو أنه إن وسع رزقي أو ضاق فهو من عند الله والرضا به أو الصبر عليه هو رحمة من الله، أما محاولة تغييره فهي عبث. وتأتي بقية المُسَلمَات في المبدأ الأول واضحة وصريحة، فالموت حق على كل نفس، والكافر وال...

Tethering Nokia E51 to CentOS 5.5 on HP 6730s

According to Wikipedia, tethering is a method to share the Internet connection of an Internet-capable mobile phone. This sharing can be via cable, or wirelessly over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi — if Wi-Fi, the tethering feature is often branded as a mobile hotspot and can typically service several devices. As a result of a sometimes slow ADSL connection, I decided to have my own mobile hotspot as a backup. Indeed, mobinil offers a relatively acceptable plan of 110 MB / month for 20 EGP. Exceed your quota during the 30 day limit, and the speed drops AFAIK from 1.2 mbps to 64 kbps. After all, for me this is a good backup plan to accomplish quick logins and short browsing. So, I went straight to Ovi store and downloaded Joikuspot Light edition 3.1. To have free apps downloaded to your PC, just click the app, then click `send to a friend` button. The address bar changes to something like `http://store.ovi.com/content/12345/send-to-friend`. Simply replace the in the address bar from `send-to-...

Inamorata

Honestly, I have never reviewed a book before finishing it, but this time there is something inside me pushing me to review the book even when I am just at chapter 13 out of 41. Talent when combined with smart and hard work along with love for what one is doing usually produces a masterpiece, something the majority approves of and likes. On Wattpad, you can find Inamorata ; an amazing story by Irish Rose. A story about humanity, morals, feelings, thoughts, and love. Unlike the trend of writing about a love story, Irish Rose wrote about a human in love with everything. You the reader, I bet, can't help except to fall in love with her. The courage that Irish Rose had to write such that she makes you sometimes despise the heroine and at some other times be happy for her is really overwhelmingly beautiful. I can not imagine how hard it was for Irish Rose to write this down, but I believe the book heavily draws from real-world experiences and carefully crafts contradictions. At...
