Blackberry PlayBook in hand :D


at last, I was very happy when I touched it for the first time. The blackberry PlayBook was in my hand for the first time , of course before officially releasing the device.

The device is slim and it weight like any travel hard disk!. that's what i felt actually.

It works as a projector ! you must have any Blackberry device (bold,curve or tourch..etc) you must have one of these mobiles if you want it for work. It doesn't have sync with exchange, you cant configure it with exchange server.

you need to have your blackberry device and this playbook. Then you use the bluetooth to sync your emails and BBM.

regarding the BBM, it doesn't have BBM or PIN CODE it just bring sync the msgs from your BB mobile and display it bigger.

you only can use the media to view pictures, play games, watch videos etc..

but if you want to check your emails.. you may use the wifi to access the internet and login to your work emails through the internet WEB ACCESS.

you will not be able to receive any emails on the device without using the bluetooth with your mobile to sync your emails.

as soon as the connection lost between the two devices "BB mobile" and "playbook" your email will vanish !

simply it just makes your mobile screen bigger.

one of the things that you cant do , you cant call from the playbook like a galaxy tab.!!

in my view the galaxy tab is better for the time being.

Trust is something that I don't trust


Why do we need to trust someone else while others cares about their benefits ?

"Trust is something that I don't trust"

I was taught to trust others, but I found that those people who I trust are aiming for their own benefits specially at work.

I don't like to type too much anyway I just wanted to say that..

is it time to put this word "TRUST" in our blacklist dictionary ?

Cool Cities 2: Abu Dhabi Development: A Cool City?

Abu Dhabi is the capital of The United Arab Emirates, has recently established more than six projects at the same time. These projects are going to attract tourist from many places to Abu Dhabi. It will positively affect the economy in it. In this essay I'm going to talk about one of its coolest projects which it called Angsana Resorts & Spa Eastern Mangroves.














This project is about an eco-retreat designed to reflect the natural environment and offer an escape from the city's urban sprawl, set in a prime position within a protected mangrove environment. The Angsana Resorts & Spa is a haven of relaxation and rejuvenation.

Moreover, it has many different facilities such as 92 of marina apartments, 52 of luxury 3 bedroom apartments, overwater villas and Angsana resort with 105 rooms. Also, it has many other features which I'm going to mention like Quayside promenade, Signature Spa, Interpretation Educational Centre and Marina facilities.


In conclusion, Angsana project is going to bring a good economical impact to Abu Dhabi city. It is going to be one of the most beautiful green places, since it's having the view of the mangroves trees. For more projects in Abu Dhabi City please visit TDIC.

Cool City


Since the start of the industrial revolution there have been some problems associated with economic development such as:
  1. Earth environmental issues.
  2. Traffic Delays.
  3. Rising in population.
  4. Increases in energy consumption.
  5. Increasing in the amount of Carbon dioxide CO2.

We have to reduce the amount of CO2 in the air since we are using recourses of more than two planets. In Japan during the last 30 years, GDP (Gross Domestic Product) has gone up around 68% while energy efficiency has increased 37% and oil consumption has decreased 8% percent. Over 90% of carbon dioxide emitted into the air is caused by Transportation and Buildings.

What is Cool City? Cool city means a sustainable urban development and architecture for gulf region. A Company called SDCJ who is developing a sustainable system to reduce the emitted of CO2 in the air. In cool city they are going to use three types of transportation such as: Monorail station, Light Rail Transit, Water transportation and Hybrid cars. Also, they are going to use echo systems in the buildings. Echo systems in towers will reduce 50% of CO2 and 30% in residential zones.

Cool city has many different zones:

  1. Business and public zone.
  2. Residential Zone.
  3. Cultural and sports zone.
  4. Resort zone.

By considering of using the latest and new technology we will be able to reduce CO2 what is equal to 60% from the air.

Carbon Footprints

What is Carbon Footprints? Carbon footprints means : The total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of carbon dioxide.

I have visited this site footprint to measure my footprints. Also I have another website to check my footprints and the second website was myfootprint.

The sites measures some of important things in our life such as : traveling, living, food and the amount of buying important and unimportant things.

After I have finished from measuring my footprint in this world. Unfortunately, I'm causing what is equal to 3.74 planets ! as I got from this site footprint. I couldn't believe my self so I went to a second website to measure my footprints again and the result was 1.45 planets, the second website was myfootprint. The average from the two sites was 2.62 planets! it means that I'm using a sources of 2.62 planets and causing alot of emittions in the earth.

I think its time to reduce using unimportant things. We have to close the lights everytime we leave our room. We have to use our cars when we have to otherwise we suppose to use alternatives to travel. We don't need to travel every year between the countries.

We are causing alot of CO2. It's time to co-operate and stops the emittions in our beautiful world.

Global Warming: local solutions

As we know the global warming is our present and future issue. We suppose to start changing some things, specially our way of living.
In this post ill mention some problems caused by global warming and ill give some solutions to solve these problems.


One of the main reasons of this problem is the increasing in the population. Population is in increase every single year. The demand on food, water and vulnerable natural is rising. It puts more pressure on the earth, which it leads us to build more factories to supply and cover the increasing of demands. An additional problem is new technology. As mentioned in the film of “an Inconvenient Truth” old habits plus and new technology equals dramatically altered consequences such as the atomic bomb. Another issue is our way of thinking. We keep waiting until it’s too late and something goes wrong.

Although these problems are very serious, we can take some steps to solve the problem.
One solution is, to change our luxurious living style. For example we can reuse the furniture for 10 years instead of keep changing the furniture every 3 years. It will reduce cutting the trees which helps to clean the environment. Another possibility is, we have to change our old habit especially in wars between us. We don’t need such as atomic bomb to solve our political issues! We can solve it in a friendly way, can’t we? Also we have to think in a different way, we have to start to think about the future and think about our next generations which it will suffer because of the shortage in food and water.

My opinion about what Al Gore said in his presentation that I couldn’t agree more, what he said is happening and it’s a fact. We feel the changes in the temperatures. We suppose to start thinking about the future.
In conclusion, it’s the pressure we are putting on the earth. The new technology we are creating might cause a global changing. Thinking about our future can help the earth from being the victim of our unstoppable needs.
