طالبت زينب رضوان عضو المجلس القومى للمرأة، وعضو مجلس الشعب، بإصدار تشريع يوقف أحكام الإعدام الصادرة بحق المرأة التى وضعت ولم يمر على وضعها عامان هجريان، مطالبة فى ذلك بتعديل المادة 476 من قانون الإجراءات الجنائية التى تخص الفترة ما بين الوضع وتنفيذ حكم الإعدام بشهرين فقط.

``I know many Muslims," he said. ``I used to live in district six. When we were boys I went to play with the neighbourhood kids. Many of them were Muslims. One day when I was five, I found them going to a house standing in a line. I thought we will get sweets, you know. But each one was ordered to take down his pants. I was a kid and I thought I will get sweets. I did so. My mum few days later discovered some blood in my pants. She asked me what happened." he laughed and said "I was circumcised with other Muslim boys!" I asked him about his own kids. "I circumcised both my kids as well. They didn't like it in church, but I think it is clean." His name was Jason a taxi driver, a protestant and lives in Athlone since the forced removals.

مخيم بلوواترز - كيب تاون
الاجئين من بلاد إفريقية مثل زيمبابوي و كونجو الديموقراطية والصومال.
أنا هنا في زيارة لأحدى مراكز علاج و تأهيل ضحايا العنف. و في أول يوم لي زرت مخيم بلوواترز للاجئين في كيب تاون. المخيم نصبتة الحكومة والمفوضية العليا للشئون الاجئين كئيواء مؤقت لمدة 6 أشهر لأن الاجئين فروا من منازلهم. فالهجمات كانت قاسية جدا، و هؤلاء لاجئين أمضوا وقت طويل بجنوب إفريقيا و أسسوا حياة لهم هنا.
This is a table of a selection of fast food prices from 2004 till 2008. This year's data is from Otlob. I found prices from previous years using archives of Otlob on the Internet Archive Wayback machine. Prices are in EGP.

In Japan, sexual harassment in public transportation is called Chikan. From what I've found on-line, Chikan is a type of frotteurism. Chikan lacks the aggressive element in comparison to cases that made news here in the past few years. Chikan is more of a paraphilia than an anti-social behaviour.
There are 100 million people around the world using Facebook. This number is from the official Facebook blog. They don't mention the number of active users. But it is safe to say that they are a lot.
I will describe an evil idea to control the decisions of a great number people that doesn't involve any intrusion on their privacy. They will be oblivious to this interference.
Wanted irked me so much I wanted to bash it here. The experience was beyond bad. I wanted to retaliate. Thankfully, The Last Psychiatrist wrote this.
Derealization is the feeling that things in one's surroundings are strange, unreal, or somehow altered.
Suddenly, today everything around me froze in time.
A few fantastic left sitting in a small circle, CSF conscripts sitting in circles eating, a friend tired and thinking, children running after each other near a dangerous short metal fence, women trying to silence their kids sitting on worn blankets on the grass, policemen with a one inch thick stripe on the sides of their dark trousers holding walkie-talkies, a big neon green Allah sign placed on top of the Cairo governerate building, a huge Egyptian flag above Abdeen palace, green security forces troop-carrying vehicles hidden behind trees and a smoggy sky with a huge orange coloured full moon during a Ramadan sunset.
Not all humans are capable of producing flammable flatus. Flatus is flammable because it contains Methane.
A clique of NDP politicians created this on their own:
From the DailyNewsEgypt:
CAIRO: An NGO was recently launched to repair relations between Egypt’s citizens and its police force, it was announced Thursday.
Named “Police and People” and created by former Foreign Minister Ahmed Maher, the organization aims to bridge the ever widening gap between the police and citizens, as well as foster awareness about the proper role for each.
و لكن لاحظت أني في العادة محظوظ جدا و لم أقع في مشاكل مع الشرطة بالرغم من تعدد التجارب.

You can listen to live streaming internet radio if you have a mobile phone with a 3G connection. The phone should be able to run J2ME MIDP applications (most do). Download and install MFRadio. It is open source and free. MFRadio can only play Mp3 streams.
The second step is to be able to connect your phone to your car stereo. This is highly variable, so you will have to find this out on your own.

هل يعرف أحد لماذا قال لي المسؤول عن تحضير جثمان جدي أنة أخف من الريشة؟
لأن خطر في بالي وقتها هذه الصورة:

Why am I the only person in the universe who has to pay for his foolishness instantly?
Starting a fight with a Taxi driver and putting him in a headlock and giving him two sissy punches in the chest in the middle of the street over 5 EGPs, in a matter of few hours, costs me 178 EGPs*!
While in headlock the driver decided to pull me from my right sleeve. The fabric of the shirt decided that it had enough.
I was left looking like an ass hole, both for attacking the Taxi driver and how I walked away red faced with a torn shirt.
You see I am a doctor and this sort of behaviour should get me suspended or ruin my career.
I will stop going to work this week, so as to sort myself out.
* Price of a new white Mobaco shirt.The architect Frank Lloyd Wright covered some of his buildings with patterned concrete blocks. He named these blocks "textile." May be because he took the concept from textile designers who use argyll, houndstooth or paisley to decorate your socks, jacket and tie.


To me, I was thunderstruck to notice that a hospital in the middle of Cairo is covered with the same blocks – exactly the same blocks – that covered the building that was the living quarters of Harrison Ford in Blade Runner.
Adel (name changed) is a 14 years old Iraqi. He started medication for Asthma at the age of one, he continued the treatment for 7 years. Without medical follow-up. The family learned that the treatment turned out to be Glucocorticoids after adverse effects became frequent. His family noticed that he broke his bones easily. He developed severe Rickets and Scoliosis of the spine. His back is still severely bent to the sides.
I wish I can go back to Iraq if the situation improved.
I like English and French because I will travel to Canada, USA, Germany or Japan. There are no possibility I can get any treatment in Iraq. If a bullet entered a leg, they don't know how to remove it.
I want to be a computer engineer, I have a website and I publish my poetry there.
نفسي أرجع العراق لو الأوضع أتحسنت.
أنا بحب الأنجليزي و الفرنسي لأني سأسافر كندا أو أمريكا أو المانيا أو اليابان لأن ما في أمكانيات أتعالج في العراق، لما في رصاصة تدخل رجل شخص ما يعرفوا يخرجوها.
نفسي أكون مهندس حاسبات، أنا عندي موقع على الأنترنت أضع علية شعر لي.
يقولوا لي في المدرسة الأزهرية أنت كافر لأنك عراقي و فاكرين لأني عراقي أني شيعي. و يضربوني على ظهري.
ما في عراقيين في المدرسة و ما في حد راضي يتكلم معي. فقررت أن أذهب الى المدرسة الا كل بضعة أيام حتى أعرف ما وصلوا له في الدروس.
I will probably die of cancer. To be more exact metastatic cancer, which is when cancer spreads from one part of the body to every other part supplied by blood or lymphatics.
Actually this would be a better way to die than a fatal crash or suicide.
I am afraid that one day I will chose to end my life. I am also afraid of death in another country. The idea of my corpse flying back home is scary. If I happen to die in another country. Please reduce me to powder form and send me back home.
I would prefer death to be slow, but not painful. I should be fully informed about everything including the stage of cancer, so I can make my preparations. It is probably an experience in itself. I will probably soak my neurons with antidepressants, medical opiate and cannabis.
I can't afford my imagination.
No one can.
If you can afford what you can imagine, then you are poor.
It sucks to use public transportation here.
I had to climb up a rock wall to change between two buses.
I hate 6 Oct bridge.
6 October city is ugly.
If this is development then I don't know.
I don't know many things.
Indecisiveness is a symptom in depressed people.
And people merely undecided but not depressed.
Like these ruminations.
They are a symptom in OCD.
And people brooding but not obsessive compulsive.
People from different places behave differently.
Specially when they are bored in public spaces.
I like to watch people in a Jacuzzi.
They stimulate their most sensual non-sexual areas.
They almost silently moan at times.
فيما عدا طريق القناة المؤدي لبورسعيد. أتذكر حبي لمشاهدة السفن التجارية و هي تمر ببطئ من خلال القناة. وعندي عاطفة خاصة تجاة أي مدينة دمرت من حروب و أعيد بنائها و تعدادها لا يزيد عن 750,000. لذا فروتسواف و غراتس هما من المدن التي أشتاق الى زيارتهم مرة أخرى.
لكن اليوم، لم نقترب من مدينة الدراويش. فتعطلت سيارتي على الطريق قبل أن نخرج من القاهرة.
فقد نسيت أن أغلق غطاء خزان المياة الذي يروي الريدياتير، بعد أن زودت منسوب المياة. بالرغم من أهتمامي أن أصحى بدري عن العادة لأغسل السيارة و أتأكد من أنها جاهزة للسفر.
فحص الطب الشرعي لإثبات الاختراق الشرجي الغير عنيف الأعتيادي موروث من الكتب المرجعية للعصر الفيكتوري في الطب.
لاتوجد أبحاث مراجعة من قبل الزملاء توفر أدلة صحيحة في هذا المجال. لأن اللواط لم يعد جريمة في أوروبا الغربية مع بداية القرن العشرين. و في حين أن البلدان التي تزال تعتبر تلك الأفعال إجرامية ليست من ناشري الأبحاث الصحيحة المراجعة من قبل الزملاء.
اليوم، أكثرية الأوصاف الموروثة من الكتب القديمة يمكن التقليل من أهميتها بسهولة.
``Habitual passive sodomite takes knee-chest position without shame during examination." —From Principles of Forensic Medicine by staff members of the Forensic & Clinical Toxicology Department. Ain Shams University Faculty of Medicine.
Forensic examinations to prove habitual non-violent anal penetration are inherited from the textbooks of Victorian era medicine[1].
There are no peer-reviewed research that provides sound evidence in that area[2]. Because sodomy was decriminalized in western Europe by the beginning of the 20th century[1]. While countries that still considers such acts criminal are not publishers of sound peer-reviewed research.
Today, most of the descriptions inherited from old text books are easily discounted.
I wanted to test the hypothesis that people would think torture is more justifiable for convicts/felons, i.e. people who did commit crimes in the past.
I decided to throw a question to my Facebook friends. Just for the fun of it and to see if this would result in anything interesting.
The questions were sent to 248 Facebook friends. My friends were randomly split in to two groups, each were presented with a slightly different question.
بعد زيارة مكوكية خاطفة أستمرت ساعة و شوية لمدينة السويس و تحت حراسة أمنية مخففة لكذا جزء في المليون. تأكدت أن المصري يعبد ختم النسر.
المواطن المصري الصالح يحج له الدواوين و الوزارات و المجمعات و المدن. و يتطلع له في شفائة على نفقة الختم. و في سفره يتوسل وجهة علي أوراقة. و يتمسح بشفاعتة في أوراق ضرائبةو تجنيدة و تعيينة و يتمم به نصف دينه. و لن يرقد بسلام في الأرض بدون موافقته.

Published in the latest(April 2008) issue of Psychiatric Times an article about proposed new diagnostic guidelines for bipolar disorder by the International Society of Bipolar Disorder.
These new proposed guidelines might give insight to what may be set in the DSM-V. The two biggest changes will be discarding the Schizoaffective disorder and addition of a pediatric bipolar disorder.

4 years passed today since I signed up for a gmail account. I received an invitation via Blogger. This was about 3 weeks after Google announced the 1GB inbox.
This secured my best email address:

At that time, this was a mindbogglingly huge webmail inbox. Yahoo! & Hotmail offered few MegaBytes for each user, as far as I can remember nothing more than 5MB.




ماذا يخطر على بالك عندما تجد المعبد؟
هل تريد أن تنظر الى واجهتة و تقارنها بالمعابد الأخرى و تتأمل متى بُني وتتمنى أن يسمح لك بالدخول لإطفاء فضولك؟
I wonder if there are any public data that can be used to assess the effects of the strike. And I wonder if this data could be analyzed statistically to see if there were any significant difference as a result of the strike.
So, do you have any ideas?

The following videos are damn interesting, but not for the faint of heart. The following is a video of a 20 cm long worm inside the colon of some person.

Congratulations, you killed all Mubarak clones in his palace. Yet, his geneticists created mutated underground worms and moles that carry his genes. They look very similar to the president. It is your final step to free the country from the grip of this dictator!
Kill the bastard, shoot him down. Non violence didn't work, neither did kicking him so why not use your AK-47 to hunt him down!
You cornered the Egyptian president somewhere after days of fighting with your guerrilla troops. You burned down the main NDP building, your troops took control of the radio and TV building and you infiltrated the army.
The anti-psychotic Zyprexa is making headlines, again. The amount of money Eli Lilly is paying to defend itself and its tactics in marketing the drug is rising (estimated to be now more than 0.2 billion US dollars since 2004 ). Zyprexa is also one of the most profitable Anti-psychotic medications (almost 5 billion US dollars in 2007).

I can understand the reasoning behind censoring nudity on TV. I can swallow my discomfort. I am watching the film for free. But I shriek at totally spoiling a film by removing innocent kissing scenes while leaving bloody violence.
I am in a taxi at this moment. Lots of traffic above october bridge. I am posting this from Opera mini and etisalat 3G. Twitter is down BTW.
