What the story?
Shaker tea attend Cuba tea
Shaker says Barakat, a young Egyptian 25-year-old story started (Dalla'ny) children, when I insisted I am in the fifth that never drink tea out of the hands of my father was laughing and sharing with me every cup of tea drinking, and my father was drinking more than 12 cups of tea per day, and after a few months I insisted on drinking cups of tea to complete my mother was forced to prepare Cuba whenever I prepared for my parents, sometimes you ask Cuba of tea and scream and cry unless prepared, before the age of six, was the first attempt to ignite the burner to prepare a cup of tea, No Deuteronomy (suspended) and my mother of this work, and succeeded in igniting the second time in the hearth and prepare the first cup of tea for myself, before I show my father, who was so proud and take food for laughter and speaks at meetings family, and my mother was forced to let you do whatever it wants, Farah This victory, and this show and I was preparing my cup of tea every five minutes and was almost lose appetite for food and am already weak, punishable family Menem on tea and I was forced to eat despite the nose so I drank Turkish tea, and I have not discovered this early age I did not drink the water Finally, did not heed one of the family so that was erected 16 years old (cramps) and renal physician frequently advised to drink the water here and I am not aware of the water I drank, and when I tried to hit turnover, nausea and could not did not feel thirst at all, because I drink cups of tea Every five minutes seems that civil caliber of liquids.

I bring with me constantly (Lupin) filled with tea, and when completed go to the nearest cafe or kitchen to re-fill.
Q: What is the position of teachers in school and university?
Everyone knew (Shaker tea), I was famous tea addict, no reality in a clash with the one due to this habit, sometimes even spare the other, and sometimes some people making fun of me, but I apologize for all angry, not from anyone.
* Are there encountering problems because of this habit?
Yes. . In fact always very embarrassing positions especially when I should be the means of transportation, on a train or a car or succession, creating a nuisance severe Oceans me, and also is usually (disabled) where the preparation of tea takes me a long time, and time severed from the practical and arrested some interests and tasks imposed on To prepare tea, as well as embarrassment when I speak with one of my superiors at work and stopped talking to accept while Cuba tea deals.

Vista Failed to Kill XP

Filed under: , ,
Windows XP is the only product available of the operating system market capable of rivaling Windows Vista, and Microsoft's indecision when it comes to pronounce it expired will backfire in 2008. In the coming year, Windows Vista adoption will be hurt by a Windows platform released all the way back in 2001. By 2008, Windows XP will be seven years old, and a worthy competitor to Windows Vista, according to Microsoft. The coming year will prove that Windows XP is far from expired when it comes to customer perception and that the operating system which


hit the shelves on October 25 2001 is alive and kicking, and stealing Microsoft customers away from Windows Vista.

At the end of the past week, Microsoft made public record annual revenue, surpassing $50 Billion. Additionally, the Redmond company, revealed that Windows Vista and the Office 2007 System have had a major impact on the $51.12 billion revenue of the past fiscal year, and the $13.37 billion revenue of the quarter ended on June 30. "This fiscal year marked the general availability of Microsoft’s flagship products, Windows Vista and the 2007 Microsoft Office system. Revenue growth was primarily driven by solid customer acceptance of these products," Microsoft stated.

"Surpassing $50 billion in annual sales is a testament to the innovation and value that our product groups delivered into the marketplace, as well as the outstanding execution by our field sales, marketing teams and partners to bring that value to life with our customers," said Kevin Turner, chief operating officer at Microsoft. "In fiscal year 2008, we will continue to drive growth through new product offerings, such as Windows Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008, SQL Server 2008, Office PerformancePoint Server 2007, and Microsoft Dynamics Live CRM."

"Our results this quarter cap off an extremely strong fiscal year for the company," said Chris Liddell, chief financial officer at Microsoft. "We have healthy core businesses and are strategically investing in growth opportunities, which will build on our success and contribute to continued double-digit revenue and earnings growth in fiscal year 2008."

But in the coming fiscal year, there will be another product that will generate profit for Microsoft in the detriment of Windows Vista. The Redmond company announced that it expects strong sales from Windows XP in 2008. "We fine-tuned the Vista/XP mix for next year" Liddell said cited by PC World. "We changed it from 85 percent to 78 percent. Now, it's a lower number for Vista, but it's still a very high number overall from our perspective, so 78 percent Vista mix in terms of sales next year."

Going from an 85/15 split for Windows Vista/Windows XP sales in the 2008 fiscal year to a 78/22 split in sales, represents an illustration of the market reality that XP is selling, and selling well even in the context of Windows Vista.

Microsoft sees end of Windows era

Filed under:


Hard drive, Eyewire
Midori aims to uncouple its software from the hardware it runs o

Microsoft has kicked off a research project to create software that will take over when it retires Windows.

Called Midori, the cut-down operating system is radically different to Microsoft's older programs.

It is centred on the internet and does away with the dependencies that tie Windows to a single PC.

It is seen as Microsoft's answer to rivals' use of "virtualisation" as a way to solve many of the problems of modern-day computing.

Tie breaking

Although Midori has been heard about before now, more details have now been published by Software Development Times after viewing internal Microsoft documents describing the technology.

Midori is believed to be under development because Windows is unlikely to be able to cope with the pace of change in future technology and the way people use it.

Windows worked well in an age when most people used one machine to do all their work. The operating system acted as the holder for the common elements Windows programs needed to call on.

"If you think about how an operating system is loaded," said Dave Austin, European director of products at Citrix, "it's loaded onto a hard disk physically located on that machine.

"The operating system is tied very tightly to that hardware," he said.

That, he said, created all kinds of dependencies that arose out of the collection of hardware in a particular machine.

If Windows ends up being less important over time as applications become more OS agnostic where will Microsoft make its money?
Michael Silver, Gartner

This means, he said, that Windows can struggle with more modern ways of working in which people are very mobile and very promiscuous in the devices they use to get at their data - be that pictures, spreadsheets or e-mail.

Equally, he said, when people worked or played now, they did it using a combination of data and processes held locally or in any of a number of other places online.

When asked about Midori by BBC News, Microsoft issued a statement that said: "Midori is one of many incubation projects underway at Microsoft. It's simply a matter of being too early in the incubation to talk about it."

Virtual machines

Midori is widely seen as an ambitious attempt by Microsoft to catch up on the work on virtualisation being undertaken in the wider computer industry.

Darren Brown, data centre lead at consulting firm Avanade, said virtualisation had first established itself in data centres among companies with huge numbers of servers to manage.

Putting applications, such as an e-mail engine or a database, on one machine brought up all kinds of problems when those machines had to undergo maintenance, needed updating or required a security patch to be applied.

By putting virtual servers on one physical box, companies had been able to shrink the numbers of machines they managed and get more out of them, he said.

"The real savings are around physical management of the devices and associated licensing," he said. "Physically, there is less tin to manage."

Equally, said Mr Brown, if one physical server failed the virtualised application could easily be moved to a separate machine.

"The same benefits apply to the PC," he said. "Within the Microsoft environment, we have struggled for years with applications that are written so poorly that they will not work with others.

"Virtualising this gives you a couple of new ways to tackle those traditional problems," he said.

Many companies were still using very old applications that existing operating systems would not run, he said. By putting a virtual machine on a PC, those older programs can be kept going.

A virtual machine, like its name implies, is a software copy of a computer complete with operating system and associated programs.

Closing Windows

"On the desktop we are seeing people place great value in being able to abstract the desktop from actual physical hardware," said Dan Chu, vice president of emerging products and markets at virtualisation specialist VMWare.

Computer users in the future are likely to be much more mobile

Some virtual machines, he said, acted like Windows PCs to all intents and purposes. But many virtual machines were now emerging that were tuned for a particular industry, sector or job.

"People take their application, the operating system they want to run it against, package it up along with policy and security they want and use that as a virtual client," he said.

In such virtual machines, the core of the operating system can be very small and easy to transfer to different devices. This, many believe, is the idea behind Midori - to create a lightweight portable operating system that can easily be mated to many different applications.

Microsoft's licensing terms for Windows currently prohibited it acting this way within a virtual appliance, said Mr Chu.

Michael Silver, research vice president at Gartner, said the development of Midori was a sensible step for Microsoft.

"The value of Microsoft Windows, of what that product is today, will diminish as more applications move to the web and Microsoft needs to edge out in front of that," he said.

"I would be surprised if there was definitive evidence that nothing like this was not kicking around," he said.

The big problem that Microsoft faced in doing away with Windows, he said, was how to re-make its business to cope.

"Eighty percent of Windows sales are made when a new PC is sold," he said. "That's a huge amount of money for them that they do not have to go out and get.

"If Windows ends up being less important over time as applications become more OS agnostic where will Microsoft make its money?" he asked.

Apple admits iPod Nano 'overheat'

Filed under: ,

The battery fault does not affect the vast majority of iPod Nanos

Apple has admitted that a battery fault had led to a small number of its first generation iPod Nanos overheating.

But it said that the problem was "rare", occurring in 0.001% of devices sold between 2005 and 2006 adding there had been no serious injuries or damage.

The comments came after the Japanese government began investigating a possible battery defect in the Nano.

There have been two reports of the music players overheating in Tokyo, scorching nearby paper.

Economy, Trade and Industry ministry official Hiroyuki Yoshitsune said the government was in touch with Apple to investigate the defect.

Battery problems

Apple said the overheating problem, which could lead to the iPod failing to work and being damaged, could be traced to a single battery supplier.

"There have been no reports of serious injuries or property damage, and no reports of incidents for any other iPod Nano model," it said.

Any customer worried about their device, bought between September 2005 and December 2006, should contact customer services, Apple added.

Lithium-ion batteries, which are used in iPods, have been blamed for a series of fires in laptops, which resulted in global recalls.

In 2006, Apple was forced to recall some 1.8 million lithium-ion Sony-made laptop batteries that were prone to overheating.

Russia rejects UN Georgia draft

Filed under:

Russia has rejected a draft UN Security Council resolution on Georgia, saying it contradicted the terms of last week's ceasefire deal.

The draft text called on Russia to pull back its forces to the positions held before the current conflict.

But Russia says the truce allows its troops to stay in a buffer zone on the Georgia side of South Ossetia's border.

Moscow earlier dismissed a Nato warning that normal relations were impossible while its troops remained in Georgia.

The conflict broke out on 7 August when Georgia launched an assault to wrest back control of the Moscow-backed breakaway region of South Ossetia, triggering a counter-offensive by Russian troops who advanced beyond South Ossetia into Georgia's heartland.

Georgia says its action was in response to continuous provocation.

UK Foreign Secretary David Miliband, who is visiting the region, is to visit a camp for displaced people in Georgia on Wednesday. Tens of thousand of people have been made homeless by the recent conflict.

On Tuesday, Mr Miliband held talks with Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili in the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, to update him on Nato's reaction at an emergency meeting of foreign ministers in Brussels which demanded that Russia pull its troops out of Georgia.

The foreign secretary criticised Russia's failure to keep to a promise to withdraw troops from Georgia.

Meanwhile, a Russia's main security service, the FSB, says a Russian officer has been detained accused of spying for Georgia.

An ethnic Georgian, Mikhail Khachidze was arrested in the southern Russian region of Stavropol near Georgia, an FSB spokesman said.

"[He] was involved in collecting secret information on Russian armed forces, its combat readiness as well as data on other servicemen," he said.

Russian veto

At the UN, Russia's ambassador said the French-drafted UN resolution went against the terms of the ceasefire brokered by France's President Nicolas Sarkozy.

Vitaly Churkin said the resolution should incorporate all elements of the six-point peace plan agreed last week.

PEACE PLAN
No more use of force
Stop all military actions for good
Free access to humanitarian aid
Georgian troops return to their places of permanent deployment
Russian troops to return to pre-conflict positions
International talks about security in South Ossetia and Abkhazia

He also objected to language in the draft reaffirming Georgia's territorial integrity, saying South Ossetia and Abkhazia did not want to be part of Georgia.

Russia can veto UN resolutions and the ambassador told the BBC that putting the text to a vote would be pointless.

He said: "It's a waste of time because the process of the withdrawal of Russian forces will continue."

Following a rebuke from Nato's 26 foreign ministers in Brussels, Moscow accused Nato of bias in favour of the "criminal regime" in Tbilisi.

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Russia risked becoming the "outlaw" of the conflict, in an interview with CBS news on the sidelines of the Nato emergency meeting.

Russia says President Dmitry Medvedev told President Sarkozy that by Friday, Russian troops would either be sent home, be pulled back to South Ossetia or to a buffer zone along the border.

Russia said it had begun a pullback on Tuesday as it withdrew 11 military vehicles from the Georgian town of Gori.

A Russian officer told reporters invited to watch that the column was heading for South Ossetia and then home to Russia, but Georgia dismissed it all as a show.

BBC correspondents there say there are still several artillery positions and checkpoints in Gori.

And the operators of the Georgian Black Sea port of Poti told the BBC that Russian forces had seized the commercial harbour.

In an apparent goodwill gesture on Tuesday, the two sides exchanged prisoners at a checkpoint near Tbilisi, but on the same day Russia paraded captive Georgians on armoured vehicles.
