وكان عرس في قصر الأمير في إحدى الليالي وكان المدعوون يدخلون ويخرجون. فدخل رجل مع الداخلين وحيى الأمير باحترام ووقار. فنظر إليه الجميع بدهشة لأن إحدى عينيه كانت مفقودة والدم ينزف من نقرتها الفارغة
فسأله الأمير قائلا
ماذا دهاك يا صاح
فأجاب الرجل قائلا

Saturday the former Serbian despot Slobodan Milošević was inhumed within an almost official ceremony where many people have participated.
I don’t feel any regret for that criminal, I was not happy neither to learn about his death: He had a cardiac arrest, he suicided, they killed him, for me, it’s the same as if I […]

I have released a 0.1 version of a pseudo WordPress plugin which displays events that occured in the same day / month along the history.
Pseudo, becuase it’s doesn’t have plugins features; I can even say it’s independent from WordPress. It consists of 2 MySQL tables: the main (wp_todayevents) and the backup one (wp_todayevents_archive) and […]

And some of your elders remember pleasures with regret like wrongs
committed in drunkenness.
But regret is the beclouding of the mind and not its chastisement.

لما قتل جعفر بن يحكي بكى عليه أبو نواس فقيل له أتبكي على جعفر وأنت هجوته فقال كان ذلك لركوب الهوى وقد بلغه واالله إني قلت فيه
ولست وإن أطنبت في وصف جعفر            بأول إنسان خرى في ثيابه
فكتب يدفع إليه عشرة آلاف درهم ليغسل بها ثيابه
 
قال الجاحظ قلت لبعض المعلمين مالي لا أرى لك […]

Israel’s “Security Fence”, “West Bank Barrier”. 10 meters high and reinforced concrete.

Another strange event that happened to me and I could not explain!
Yesterday, a friend — King Panga — had issues to access to his old NTFS disk with Windows, a permission denied alert. I suggested that he uses Knoppix, burns data and reformats the old disk but no way to do that: the data […]

The Sovietic chess school was the best at the time and is still the most solid; it has contributed to the chess culture a lot and is still a reference. But how about the “Jewish” school?
I had never looked for any chess player’s religion; but when I read a Wikipedia page, I changed my […]

Parceiro de euforias e desventuras, amigo de todos os segundos, generosidade sistemática, silêncios eloqüentes, palavras cirúrgicas, humor afiado, serenas firmezas, traquinas, as notas na polpa dos dedos, o verbo vadiando na ponta da língua - tudo à flor do coração, em carne viva… Cavalo de sambistas, alquimistas, menestréis, mundanas, olhos roucos, suspiros nômades, a […]

Bien qu’elle soit âgée d’un peu plus de mille ans, il est étrange que la langue française n’a pas de synonymes pour beaucoup de mots, y compris :
Bon marché
Quelque chose qui n’est pas chère, en anglais cheap, en espagnol barato, etc. Pourtant, en latin, principale source des mots francophones, le terme existe : insumptuosus, […]
