حزين جدا أني لازم أنقل الوضع في التحرير للناس عن طريق المدونة، كان نفسي ناس أكثر تنزل و تشوف لكن الناس معتمده على تويتر والتليفيزيون.

المداخل مقفولة بالسلك الشائك و لكن الأرصفه مفتوحة للمشاه والدراجات العادية والبخارية. حوالين كل مدخل في بتاع 50 واحد أو أكثر داخلين في حوارات، ممكن الحوارات تسخن و يكون في زعيق أو زق. (ما شفتش زق غير على فيديو متصور امس).

الميدان مش مليان و مش فاضي. ممكن نقول أن …

Since I am currently unemployed and wasting my time following the thousand or so tweets that appear every hour on my twitter account. I decided to spend time with my father getting paperwork related to several court cases done. These cases happen to be in Minya and they are related to few areas of land he refuses to give up.

No votes to university graduates

in «Politics & Human Rights» by moftasa

graph showing a positive correlation 0.78 between percentage of no votes in each governerate to the percentage of university graduates in each governerate

This chart means that the governerate with a higher percentage of university graduates is more likely to vote no in the last referendum.

You can access referendum results here.

UPDATE: I uploaded an excel file with data from referendum and numbers of university graduates from CAPMAS. The data from CAPMAS is from 2006.

This is just a dump of one correlation found. I am trying to look for other interesting bits in this data.

Data from referendum will draw a new map of Egypt

in «Politics & Human Rights» by moftasa

It doesn't matter the outcome of the referendum. What matters is the detailed data that will come out. Given that fraud seems to be limited, the data may be very valuable.

Egypt at night from space

I think we can safely assume that most people who voted Yes were more convinced with ideas that are quite separate from the ideas of the No camp.

It's now common knowledge that the majority of the people who said Yes were basically people …

قبل توجيه أصابع الاتهام

in «Politics & Human Rights» by moftasa

وقعت حوادث عنف مؤسفة في اليومين أو الثلاثة الماضية ضد قسيس طعن حتى الموت في أسيوط وأضرمت النيران في منزل مملوكا لأسرة بهائية في سوهاج. تفاصيل الحدثين لاتزال غير معروفة، و لكن بدأت الناس في القاء الأتهامات.

هذه المرة اللوم يلقى على أمن الدولة أو مبارك أو المتبقى من رجاله. على الرغم من ان هذه الفرضية مشروعة ويجب أخذها في الأعتبار، فلا زال لا توجد أي أدلة أو حتى خبر مستفيض يوضح ما حدث. السبب …

Before pointing fingers

in «Politics & Human Rights» by moftasa

Two deplorable acts of violence occurred in the past two or three days against a priest who was stabbed to death in Assiut and a house owned by a Bahaai family was set alight in Sohag. The details of both events are still not known, yet people started to point blame.

This time blame is pointed to state security, Mubarak or his remaining actors. Although, this is a legitimate hypothesis and needs to be taken …
