complications ...

hmmmmmmm, am really searching for a quot or something, for those who emphasize their skills and strengths to get what they want, like "The need defines the mean" or something, never mind i just brought up the subject, it was dark, a little late, but sure these kind of people stay at work for this time.

A friend of mine popped up on msn, hello here , hello their , how are you ... stuff like this and that ..what have you been doing so far , where are you, how is work, oh ... we really like to speak about work, we went on and on, talking about technical stuff, and improvements, well this is an endless dialog, i asked him, man its been so long since we chatted how did i come to your mind, he said, well , i need a faivour, and i know who calls the shoots, so am calling you.

it turned out that he is searching for a phone number in a stack of 300 Mega byte of call data records, coded in binary format that sums about 10,000 of files , well it is a long story that i don't have to tell, but i was really shocked how determined he was, and this guy is professinal in this matter, he even asked me for documents, and specs of how those binary coded files can be read, so he can make automated scripts to help him out.


well he thought his to-become wife called him to check on him, while they went last time on a fight which lasted 5 days without a simple phone call from each other, they loved each other 8 years, there where problems between the two familis which sorted out well finally, but now this stupid man, stands against his ego, and tries to test his to-become wife loyality by never speaking to her and letting her to make a step forward, thats side of the truth, while on the other hand, he is staying awake and so late reading 300 mega byte of call records just to find out if she still cares, if i should proceed in this ongoing war with her parents, if i should getover it and start recovering.

well he is crazy enough to do it!! and guess what...... am crazy enough to help him!!

The Psychology of Social Computing: What Best Explains the Success of Facebook?

Tuesday, July 10, 2007; Posted: 4:46 AM - by John Kirriemuir

Facebook has been getting a lot of UK press of late, from consideration of how much it is worth, to privacy issues, universities getting annoyed at students using it to criticize staff, being censored by organizations frightened of it, and the musings of BBC journalists about whether people are too “old” to Facebook.

What makes Facebook such an attraction? Some theories…

1: Collecting

It's like Top Trumps and Pokemon and stamp collecting, in that it taps into the basic psyche of collecting things. As the collection of "Friends" grows, so it is like having a larger stamp collection, with an increasing feeling of achievement.

"My stamp collection contains 10 stamps" is nothing. "My stamp collection contains 2,000 stamps" perhaps gives a feeling of achievement, a tangible result and evidence of work and persistence.

To give your collection a bit more personalization, you can optionally agree with your friends how you met and add on other bits of information, write on their profile wall, and so on. So you aren't just remembering and "collecting" friends, but collecting relationships between people. (That sounds a bit woolly – just play with Facebook and it'll make more sense).

2: Not invited to the party

Facebook also digs away at the insecurities in people. "I have one friend" probably makes some people feel a bit insecure and Billy no-mates. In the deeply insecure, this may be amplified by the lie-awake-at-night worry that your peers can see your profile on Facebook, and while they may have 50, 100, 200 friends they will mockingly see that you have a pathetically small number, confirming your worst fears about the low opinion they have probably held of you over all those years etc.

Yes, Facebook could cause a lot of angst to the paranoid amongst us ;-)

3: Twitching curtains

"Curiosity" – and its cousin "nosiness" – are basic cognitive attributes. Anyone who says they are never nosey or never curious as to what their neighbours or work colleagues are up to is probably fibbing. Having lived in several small communities, where gossip is an alternative currency, the general rule seems to be "most residents discuss most other residents". Though, in many ways, this is preferable to the anonymity of the city, where people often live next door to dead people for weeks or months at a time without realising.

Facebook is up-front about letting you keep an eye on what your friends are up to. There's a status box. You type in – if you want – what you are doing. There's another page where the most recent updated status of your friends are listed; here's a screenshot of a good example. Currently, of my peers, Dan is off to Paris, Tom has just completed a half-marathon in 2 hours 10 minutes, David in Lewis is bottling his home-made wine, and Jenny has finally bought a house. Utterly meaningless to you (unless you are my evil twin or stalker), but of interest to me. The same way that your friends are of no interest to me but of much interest to you.

4: People like us

It's a social network for what my cousin calls "the deadwood" – basically, everyone over 30. The demographics for new users registering show an accelerating rise in people from 35 onwards signing up (this slide from an interesting bundle of Facebook stats slides):

I'm 38. When I use Facebook I don't occasionally look at a person's profile and think, with total dismay, "I'm old enough to be your father." That's happened to me in MySpace. And that's partially why I've given up on Bebo, as it's not far off the point of thinking "I'm old enough to be your grandfather." How depressing would that be?

No, there is a generational thing there, and I'm more comfortable with peers who are very roughly within my age range. The birthday/age feature on Facebook tells me the youngest friend I have is 25 (four of them) and the oldest is 74. If you are too young to remember life under Thatcher – and worryingly, this year's University intake will contain that generation – then we probably aren't going to be discussing politics anyway. And I'm not going to turn into one of the dull people who turn up at every village meeting and start their sentences with "In my day…". No, 25 to 74 is fine.

5: Autobiography

Once you've linked up with a few people, then Facebook creates a "Social Timeline." This shows when and who and why you ended up meeting with Facebook people. As an aide memoire, this has been unexpectedly interesting, showing that I did a heck of a lot of networking (that led to people I'm still in touch with) at certain jobs, but not at others. It also shows that for the couple of years after I went self-employed, I did hardly any networking as I was busy being a part-time tourist. (That's what happens when you live between two airports which host several budget airlines, and you don't have to book time off work).

6: Expansion is quick, easy and free

I like Wordpress, as a blogging and website development tool, as plug-ins are being created all the time to add functionality. A bit of FTPing, and a variable amount of fiddling, and often – though not always – another dimension has been added to a website or blog.

However, Facebook is simpler.

Adding new functionality is done within Facebook – no FTPing, or messing about with files or directories. It takes literally seconds, which means that an application of interest can be very quickly experimented with. Several times I've installed, played with, and uninstalled applications in under 2 minutes. Therefore, it appeals to people who like to tinker and experiment, but don't have the time, inclination, knowledge, attention span or geekiness to mess about with anything technical.

So what of rival services? Will Facebook knock 'em out of the market place? One in particular is possibly doomed in the long-term: Friends Reunited.

Death of the cell phone charger

A Pennsylvania entrepreneur has developed technology that gives you all the battery juice you need directly from the air. Business 2.0 reports.

By Melanie Haiken, Business 2.0 Magazine

March 30 2007: 7:08 AM EDT

(Business 2.0 Magazine) -- How much money could you make from a technology that replaces electrical wires? A startup called Powercast, along with the more than 100 companies that have inked agreements with it, is about to start finding out. Powercast and its first major partner, electronics giant Philips, are set to launch their first device powered by electricity broadcast through the air.

It may sound futuristic, but Powercast's platform uses nothing more complex than a radio--and is cheap enough for just about any company to incorporate into a product. A transmitter plugs into the wall, and a dime-size receiver (the real innovation, costing about $5 to make) can be embedded into any low-voltage device. The receiver turns radio waves into DC electricity, recharging the device's battery at a distance of up to 3 feet.

Picture your cell phone charging up the second you sit down at your desk, and you start to get a sense of the opportunity. How big can it get? "The sky's the limit," says John Shearer, Powercast's founder and CEO. He estimates shipping "many millions of units" by the end of 2008.

For years, electricity experts said this kind of thing couldn't be done. "If you had asked me seven months ago if this was possible, I would have said, 'Are you dreaming? Have you been smoking something?'" says Govi Rao, vice president and general manager of solid-state lighting at Philips (Charts). "But to see it work is just amazing. It could revolutionize what we know about power."

World's 11 coolest products

So impressed was Rao after witnessing Powercast's demo last summer that he walked away jotting down a list of the industries to which the technology could immediately be applied: lighting, peripherals, all kinds of handheld electronics. Philips partnered with Powercast last July, and their first joint product, a wirelessly powered LED light stick, will hit the market this year. Computer peripherals, such as a wireless keyboard and mouse, will follow in 2008.

Broadcasting power through the air isn't a new idea. Researchers have experimented with capturing the radiation in radio frequency at high power but had difficulty capturing it at consumer-friendly low power. "You'd have energy bouncing off the walls and arriving in a wide range of voltages," says Zoya Popovic, an electrical engineering professor at the University of Colorado who works on wireless electricity projects for the U.S. military.

That's where Shearer came in. A former physicist based in Pittsburgh, he and his team spent four years poring over wireless electricity research in a lab hidden behind his family's coffee house. He figured much of the energy bouncing off walls could be captured. All you had to do was build a receiver that could act like a radio tuned to many frequencies at once.

"I realized we wanted to grab that static and harness it," Shearer says. "It's all energy."

Entrepreneur finds 'suite' dreams

So the Powercast team set about creating and patenting that receiver. Its tiny but hyperefficient receiving circuits can adjust to variations in load and field strength while maintaining a constant DC voltage. Thanks to the fact that it transmits only safe low wattages, the Powercast system quickly won FCC approval--and $10 million from private investors.

Powercast says it has signed nondisclosure agreements to develop products with more than 100 companies, including major manufacturers of cell phones, MP3 players, automotive parts, temperature sensors, hearing aids, and medical implants.

The last of those alone could be a multibillion-dollar market: Pacemakers, defibrillators, and the like require surgery to replace dead batteries. But with a built-in Powercast receiver, those batteries could last a lifetime.

"Everyone's looking to cut that last cord," says Alex Slawsby, a consultant at Innosight who specializes in disruptive innovation. "Think of the billion cell phones sold last year. If you could get Powercast into a small percentage of the high-end models, those would be huge numbers."

Could Powercast's technology also work for larger devices? Perhaps, but not quite yet. Laptop computers, for example, use more than 10 times the wattage of Powercast transmissions.

But industry trends are on Shearer's side: Thanks to less energy-hungry LCD screens and processors, PC power consumption is slowly diminishing. Within five years, Shearer says, laptops will be down to single-digit wattage--making his revenue potential even more electrifying.

A meaning of a day

have you ever stopped on the word, a business day, while reading an invoice or something alike, why did they call it a business day, and not just a day.

well recently i came up with a conclusion!, from the business owner point of view it is only an 8 hour of work, minus week ends, minus holidays, minus any day that is not counted.

but i still can remember how adults used to describe a day for us, so when they said it is after a day then it means sleep then wakeup, and when it is two days after, then it is sleep and wake up then sleep over and wake up, and same goes for N day(s) == N *( sleep and then wake up).

but now things have changed and here is an example:
* Day: means 24 hour which is also 1440 minute. -- when somebody asks you can you please give us a minute then he means 1/1440 of your day --
day start is 23:00 we started working on some operational issue, which lasted for 6 hours.
and after that at 07:15 went home to have some snack and sleep.
15:45 woke up and found out that i missed the whole daylight, had launch and chatted with parents waited some guests and said hi and goodbye, went to Irbid which is about 87 kilometer far.
reached there at 17:30 after 80 minutes of driving. had to come there to see some old pals of mine since they where about to leave country, interrupted by a business call, No way to go back to Amman now(), had to work from an internet cafe, problem solved every body is happy now(), back to pals.
clock ticks and school friends call " where are you man?" i am far away, we have plans for today.
kisses pals goodbye, need anything 3la rasi pal.
-- engine starts Time is now(); 20:00 --
drove back to Amman, had to do this thing i really do, guys are calling, and battery is low, and engine is slow, Oh watch out the gas tank, had to refill, watch out that car and is this the right way, had to make a lie or else I'll die so that gives me much time.
oh what a rainy day, loads of water large drops too !.
here at last No No not home -- at work of course -- "change the tapes" and literally do. took me 10 minutes then drove back home,
21:00 and i am in my way back, finally there home sweet home, still got 2.5 hours,
Tan Ton, door bell rings, who is it, oh yeah , how are you ? fine thank you. come in where is the rest of the guys, waiting outside with a big surprise.
21:15 Hello Guys what is this i know it is my birthday, thank you very much, laughed and had so much fun, all the guys are there except for those who missed their bus and the selfish ones, feeling sick this is the spark to make an excuse to say goodbye, so this farewell my friends.
22:30 drive them by and say goodbye.
23:00 home sweet home and end of a the day.


Q:which of the items in this figure, do you think is my present at my 24th birthday?.
to the guys, "Thank You", and i really mean it, the gift was great for what it meant.

this is what we pay for being in the computer business.
have a nice 24 hour.

Searching.... Cars Vs Women

It has been about a month ago and i am still searching for a car,
I searched north and south, in the newspapers and at the car posters, i went to many places, garage -- twice --, car shops and even i went to see different individual sellers, i learned car jargon 4-Good, 3-Good, Hit, a Hit on the head, a bent, and many many brand names and accessories,

first week i started to tell everybody that i am looking for a car, most of them responds at first with, "how is your budget?", the second response is that "what is the type you are looking for?" Korean Kia, Daewoo, Hyndei, or German Opel-Vectra-astra-kadett, VolksWagen Golf, Polo, Japanese Honda, Mitsubishi-Lancer, ...... and many many more.

When ever you are settled to buy one, somebody pops up and starts telling you about its disadvantages and starts recommending another type.
and while i am complaining to some colleague about the situation, he told me Quote"Don't listen to what all people say, it happened to the best of us, don't worry this nothing compared to once you start looking for a good wife."Unquote

so it all came to my mind how we compare a good wife to a good car, try to apply the car jargons on a human being it is funny isn't it :)

I Found Something to share

will it is a question that keeps spinning in my mind,
how does it feel if you Finally Find what you've been looking for since three years ago.

will a person i mean, but not the following one.

i have this power i am not very sure about it, once i started thinking in a friend of mine back there at school, how we used to spend so much quality time together and how we got cut off after school.

and at next day morrning i find one missed call from him !!

It is hard to choose a subject to start blogging

I am new to the idea of blogging but it seems a nice one, although i have some restrictions on the subjects that one must introduce to blogging, i will start my first blogging subject on the things that a human being can do to improve his and the others life around him.

i mean together to a calm and peacfull environment
