What do you do when you're a parent who's a combo of geeky and lazy? You program a way for your computer to rock your baby to sleep, of course.
This enterprising parent used his Linux box and a custom program to get the CD drive to repeatedly open and close! He then tied a string between his kid's car seat and the drive, and voila, automatic baby rocker. Now if only there was a way to get the computer to feed them their meals, they’d be all set!
Personally i hate change! Simply because change is BAD, just kidding ;p but surely something traumatizing happened when i was a simple innocent child that started this fear of change issue! Oh well i guess i'll just have to get used to it! Anyways...Ramadan is here, signaling change (the good kind) it is a time of fasting, which is meant to teach patience, modesty and spirituality. Through good actions people you're going to get rewarded seventy times as much as you normally can achieve (Allah a3lam). So people go on and ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and help in refraining from everyday evils, and try to purify yourself through self-restraint and good deeds. Finally, "embarak 3alekom elsh-ahar" & "taqabal allah 6a3atkom"
Finals are here! and they here to stay for the next 2 weeks which means its time for a break, so wish me luck people and best of luck to all students, study hard ;)
The way you hold your glass reveals much more than you can realise!This is usually a woman, who holds her glass with dainty, splayed fingers and uses it in a provocative way.
She may position it over her cleavage so as to draw attention to her attributes or peer over the rim to make eye contact when taking a sip - and she may "tease" the rim of the glass with her finger, perhaps dipping it into the drink and sucking it dry.
Again, usually a woman who clusters together with her friends. She may be talking about other people, and can be critical. She holds a wine glass by the bowl and uses it to gesticulate and make points in conversation.
She is inclined to lean over her drink, in towards others so as to speak confidentially. This person already has a close-knit social group with little inclination to extend it, therefore advances from outsiders are not usually welcome.
This type of drinker could be a man or a woman. They tend to be sociable and convivial and "like a laugh".
They take short swigs from bottled drinks so they don't miss out on chipping in with the conversation.
The bottle is held loosely at its shoulder for ease. This type of person is always happy to extend their social circle. The best way to approach them therefore is to leap directly into light, good-humoured conversation and make them laugh.
Usually a shy, submissive person who holds the glass protectively, not letting go, as though afraid somebody will take it away.
Palms are kept hidden and the glass is used as a social crutch - the drink is never quite finished, with a mouthful left in case of emergency. The drink is small - maybe half a pint of lager for a man.
It may be drunk through a straw, which is fidgeted with, and used to stir the drink between sips.
The style and pace of drinking is an echo of those around them - very little is initiated.
This individual needs to be approached in a gentle, sensitive way, with perhaps a few understated compliments to build self-confidence, but may eventually warm to overtures.
This is a mainly female type whose natural style is cold and defensive.
She drinks from a wine glass, or a short glass, which is held firmly in a barrier position across the body so as to deter intimate approaches.
It is usually a waste of time approaching this woman; she may be ready with a castrating put-down.
This man is active and self-confident; a "Don Juan"-type seducer.
He uses his, usually long, glass or bottle as a phallic prop, playing with it suggestively. He is inclined to be possessive, and can be tactile with his female companions.
This "peacock" is conscious of his image and will drink a bottled beer, or cider.
He is inclined to be confident and arrogant, and can be territorial in his gestures, spreading himself over as much space as possible, for example, pushing the glass well away from himself and leaning back in his chair.
If he is drinking with friends, he would be unlikely to welcome approaches from outside the group, unless sycophantic and ego-enhancing.
Again usually male, he prefers large glasses, or bottles, which he uses as symbolic weapons, firmly grasped, and gesticulating in a threatening, "in the face" kind of way.
Something of a know-it-all, he can come across as slightly hostile, even if only through verbal argument, or jokes targeted at others. He should be approached with great care, or not at all.
