محفوره في قلبي يا مصر

بحبك يا بلدي مهما حصل
مهما قالوا لي ان كل شئ اتقفل
لكن انتي يا مصر يا بلدي
هتفضلي محفوره جوه قلبي
حتي لو الحاقدين قالوا لي
ان البلد دي ما يتعش فيها
هاقول لهم
ان بلدي ما ينعش الا فيها
هيقولوا لي فيها فقر وجهل وبطاله
وتدهور اقتصادي وصناعي و تجاري
هاقول لهم
مش هاعيش و مش هاموت الا فيها
لان طيبه ولاد بلدي اجمل ما فيها
بلدي فيها حاجه حلوه بتخليني اتمسك بيها
الحاجه حلوه اللي في بلدي
اعرف احسها و لكن معرفش اقولها
بحبك يا مصر يا بلدي يا ام الدنيا

Man in the street

I choosed a topic and i used to ask men in the street about their opinion in it and my topic is "The global Financial crisis" cause it is one of the hottest topics in different media that affects millions of people worldwide. “The recent market economic instability was caused by many factors which includes the market dramatic change in the ability to create new lines of credit, which dried up the flow of money and slowed down new economic growth and the buying and selling of assets”, said Am Ahmed,the man who sells water mellon in El Gomaa Market.
And he also added that “the effect of the economic crisis is apparent in incentive payment reductions and an increase in working hours at the same time as shift numbers are decreased”.
This negatively affects individuals, businesses, and “many financial institutions which were left holding assets back that had dropped precipitously in value and weren’t bringing in the amount of money needed to pay for the loans”, said Mr Samy,An Employee in the Bank who was buying bread from “El Gomaa market”
And he also added “This dried up their reserve cash and restricted their credit and ability to make new loans.” There were other factors as well, including the “cheap credit” which made it too easy for people to buy houses or make other investments “based on pure speculation.” Cheap credit created more money in the system and people wanted to spend that money. Unfortunately, people wanted to buy the same thing, which increased demand and caused inflation. “Private equity firms leveraged billions of dollars of debt to purchase companies and created hundreds of billions of dollars in wealth by simply shuffling paper, but not creating anything of value.” “Egypt has seen a property market boom over the last few years fuelling its national economy and stock markets. As a consequence of the global financial crisis, investments in these boom sectors are now quickly drying up; however, due to the whole world profound economic crisis the national income of different countries is consequently affected. ”, said Am Hassan, The door-keeper.
When you compare Egypt with what is now happening in the U.S. and some European countries, “the banks have excess liquidity in Egypt. The ratio of credits to deposits in the banking system is only 55% as compared to an international norm of 80%. So it’s not that they are safe, they are too safe”, said Mr Samy,An Employee in the Bank who was buying bread from “El Gomaa market”.
And he hopes that central bank will take seriously its responsibility to enhance lending and the incentives for the banking sector to provide credit. “Now is not the time to raise the interest rate. It is my view that inflation targeting, which has been the priority of the central bank for the last 12 months or more should shift because of our expectations. It is true that inflation was almost 20%, but don’t keep interest rates high, you have to compensate for all the people that are going bankrupt by not making credit so expensive” ,said Mr Samy,An Employee in the Bank who was buying bread from “El Gomaa market”.
Therefore the banking sector has a very important job to reduce the gap between the lending rate and the deposit rate, which is very large.
In the real economy, we are not yet seeing the effects of the recession. “If we make some small changes in laws and procedures, it is a signal to investors to re-root their investments. Egypt is already considered an important emerging market. So, if we play it right, if we manage this crisis right, we could come out as winners rather than losers from this upheaval”, said Um Mohamed ,the woman who sells fruits in El Gomaa Market.
Egypt is profoundly affected by the economic crisis. So hope that the economic crisis is solved so that Egypt can flourish again like previous years and consequently can flourish the national income in Egypt.

Raghda also added that the library used an electronic index on the OPAC line via the web site of the library or via the web site of the university, and the library also make researches on Data bases which is available On-Line or on CDs.
Not only is the aim of the library to demand the service of the university, but also to serve the educational academic society, and also the research academic society.
Library also provides people with lots of services such as: Reading inside the library, giving advices to readers, External borrowing services, Photo copying services.

Rania also talked about“(Current surrounding service), which means that the Library used to tell people about the new things and the current events that happen in the library”.

عمرو أديب: طوني خليفة ينتمي لمدرسة إعلامية قديمة وفاشلة

الأربعاء 9 ديسمبر 2009
انتقد الإعلامي المصري عمرو أديب نظيره اللبناني طوني خليفة، معتبرا أنه لا يعطي فرصة للضيف ليقول رأيه، واعتبر ذلك تأثرا بمدرسة قديمة ثبت فشلها.وعن نفسه تمنى أن يكون منظما مرة في حياته ليصنع أفضل، وتطلع إلى مزيد من التعلم والتدريب الإعلامي، قائلا: "ياريت آخد كورس في MBC لأصبح أفضل".وعبر عمرو -خلال حلقة "آخر من يعلم"، الإثنين 7 ديسمبر/كانون أول 2009م- بجملة "الكابوس يعود" عندما فوجئ ببعض جمهور "آخر من يعلم" يرفعون الأعلام المصرية والجزائرية، ففهم أنها إشارة لمباراة مصر والجزائر في التصفيات المؤهلة لكأس العالم 2010م بجنوب إفريقيا، وما حدث خلالها من شغب ومشكلات بين البلدين الشقيقين، معلنا رفضه لأية إهانة لمصر، وصدمته باكتشافه كره الجزائريين لمصر، وحزنه من سوء العلاقات بين البلدين بسبب مباراة.وأكد على ما أعلنه من قبل، من أنه سيعتزل التلفزيون وبرنامج "القاهرة اليوم"، في عام 2010م ليرتاح في بيته مع أولاده، وأنه حتى الآن سجل 7800 ساعة على الهواء بالبرنامج.ووصف أخاه عماد أديب، بأنه علامة في برامج التوك شو، بحيث "يقال مرحلة ما قبل عماد أديب، وما بعد عماد أديب"، ورحب بالقول إنه أقل مهنية من عماد، لكنه رفض اتهامه بتقليد عماد.وعن انتقاده لرجل الحديد الأول ورئيس تنظيم الحزب الوطني الحاكم أحمد عز، أكد أنه يرفض فقط أن "يلبس قبعتين"، أي اشتغاله بالمال والسياسة معا، وتحفظ على القول بأنه على خلاف مع جمال مبارك، مؤكدا أنه لا يرفضه كرئيس قادم لمصر شرط أن يأتي عبر صندوق الانتخابات مرشحا من عدد من المرشحين الآخرين.وأكد أنه ليس محسوبا على نظام الحكم في مصر، كما يشاع، لكنه تمنى أن يكون كذلك، وأوضح أنه طوال عمله التلفزيوني لم يتم قطع برنامجه "المباشر" لأسباب سياسية، مؤكدا على أنه لو تعرض لذلك فسوف يأخذ حاجياته من القناة التي يعمل بها ويرحل، واستدرك بأنه لا يخلو مكان مهما كانت مساحة الديمقراطية به من الخطوط الحمراء، مشددا على أنه ليس له ظهر يحميه سوى الله ودعاوى والدته والرئيس مبارك الذي "صنع مساحة الحرية في مصر".وقال إنه يحتاج نقابة المحامين بأكملها كي تدافع عنه في كم قضايا الدعاوى المرفوعة ضده، وآخرها بلاغ ضد ضيفة البرنامج اعتماد خورشيد صاحبة كتاب "شاهدة على انحرافات صلاح نصر"، وقاضي البرنامج أيضا، وبالتالي مقدمه، وعندما طالبته أن يكتب اسما يريد رفع دعوى ضده كتب "إسرائيل".واعتبر أن تجسيده لشخصية مصطفى أمين في فيلم "كوكب الشرق"، شرف كبير له، كاشفا عن دور سينمائي آخر لوكيل نيابة، مطروح عليه حاليا.

Conflict story

Walking into the lavish, clean and comfortable hall, being welcomed by the nice place which is city stars mall.
On Saturday morning, the weather was sunny; I went to the mall to buy a book about media management which is called “The Business of Media”, and I really want it.
The book costs 150 LE, and I have 160 LE, but while walking in the mall I found a black dress, the dress was really nice, and I was admired by this dress.
The dress costs 160 LE, but I really want the book, so what shall I do, I was admired by the dress but I want the book.
Then I went to virgin mega stores and I found the book, when I decided to buy the book, but at the last moment I changed my mind because I like the black dress.
And then I returned home and I didn’t buy anything because of the conflict that was created inside me.
After that I remembered that I have to go to the university with the book the day after tomorrow so the conflict inside me began to be more than before.
So I went again to virgin mega stores in city stars to buy the book because the book is more important than a dress.
Finally I bought the book, and I will wait until I have money to buy a nice black dress so the conflicts inside me disappeared.
