Computer design

Did you ever thought how advanced the human's mind in creating computers/devices that help to cure the nation?

I thank God for that.

Computer design goes deeper about how logically design logic circuit & processors.

The new words that I learnt are Pipelining & Superscalar, they are related to processors.

Out of this world

I realized that I’m not connected to my surroundings and the world after one week of the assassination of the late Rafiq al-Hariri when my colleagues were talking about it.

“Good-bye”

I received several forwarding junk mails (emails) from friends in Arabic reflects the anti-religion against Christianity by trying manipulating people’s minds, the word of the day was ‘Good-bye’.

Everyone knows that the word “Good-bye” is a farewell remark; the anti- Christians said not to use it as the word ‘Bye’ means ‘BABAH’ which is an Arabic word for ‘Popes’, who is the Leader of the Roman Catholic Church on Earth, and the Bishop of Rome.

Most of the ignorant or who can’t think logically believed in what been said.
Where is the proof of that or the source if it is true?

Light Pollution

When was the last time you were able to see or view the stars at night from your backyard or window or terrace or roof?

What does light pollution affect?
Light pollution affect humans, animals and plants even other creatures that is nit visible with the naked eyes, it imbalances the natural environment.
Where the most places get affected with light pollution?
The most place have light pollution is in the city.

The only way to reduce light pollution is to cut down the usage of lights by using the minimum requirement.

Polyphonic ring tones

Polyphonic ring tones is one of the latest add-ons technology for mobile (cellular) phones in the 21st century, since this technology is been introduced it became more and more disturbing for me and other people as it creates sound pollution and distractions in work places, public places and prayer places. It becoming ridicules that people put songs, poems and jokes for a ring tone or a message tone that embarrasses a person most of the time, I know that everyone is free to do what he wants but not on the expense of other people.

As far as I know that Musk deer is a wild animal, by killing them the number of Musk dears will be decreasing in world wide, I think I started looking at it from other angle.
