Life is not what we want!

Samia Yusof who ran along the hell.
Do you think she made a stupid decision by trying to go to the Europe with a small boat?
The title of this news is enough tragic : An Olympic athlete died, trying immigrate to the so-called rich north.
What happened to her after Beijing 2008 which forced her to do such thing?
How she decided to get in that small boat? To achieve her dream living in the UK? to earn money and help her family?
Samia appeared in the media almost 4 years ago because being the last one to pass the final line in 200m.
 Everybody applaud when she passed the line, and she was so excited just like a winner!
"I`m so proud to be here shaking Somalia`s flag and being with the best of the world" she said.
she was 17 then.
Beijing journey was a golden span in her life; almost all girls get raped every day in  Somalia by the fundamentalists militia, who wanted her be covered staying at home. she had been suffered many of those penalties, most them from the Government of the country who she was proud to shake its flag there!

Search and read the rest if you see it is interesting to know what happened to her. who cares I think they don't have oil there!

Look at this video. almost all of them has a thicker arms than her leg. :(

Installing VMware tools on Ubuntu machine

Steps are so simple:
First you need to mount VMware Tools CD image. Turn on your virtual machine then log in to your machine using your administrator account. then go to 'VM' > 'Install VMware Tools...'.

then the file you're looking for is mounted in your CD/DVD ROM. name of the file is something like "VMwareTools-8.8.0-471268.tar.gz" , numbers might be different based on your version of VMware.
right click on it and copy it on your desktop and then select "Extract here".

After extraction; it creates a new folder name "vmware-tools-distrib"
then you need to run the Terminal inside the Ubuntu which is something like Microsoft command propmt
I'm using Ubuntu 12, so click on "Dash Home" and "Terminal" should be there; if not type "Terminal" in search box and find it. run the Terminal.
you need to go to the desktop where the VMware tools are located.
command is:

cd home/username/Desktop/vmware-tools-distrib

where username is your username you log in to Ubuntu. then run following command:

sudo ./vmware-install.pl -d

-d parametter doing that automatically, if you don't like that, remove it and answer the question as prompted.
enter your password if you are asked.
restart your machine and your done.
remember commands in Ubuntu is case-sensative, which means "desktop" is different than "Desktop"

here's another website which has more detail about the process and cover different versions.

Interesting video about the physics behind 3D glasses:

Great videos about Greedy Algorithm

I have Algorithm and Complexity this semester and found good videos from Berkeley university on youtube.
This Lecturer, Professor Gusfield, explains the concept really well..better than my lecturer at least.

Education should be free for all

I think education should be free for all students or whoever wants to study. Students should not pay for their books, or tuition fees or whatsoever.
Government must support the students. I have to pay $700 for just books which I'm studying in this semester.
imagine this amount of money for other semesters and the pressure and anxiety.
Thanks technology we have internet these days, you can have access to lots of materials or videos.
the profit is far more greater than any loss or expenses due to week students.
