August 2, 2024: We are proud of our alumni math student, one of our best math students, and my student Reem Mahmoud, who obtained her PhD in Mathematics and just received a visiting position at New York University Abu Dhabi. Hopefully, she can join us at the AUS next year. I connected our talented student Omar with her advisor for some advice. PIC

June 16, 2024: Suhail Khoury speaking Russian: Suhail Khoury talked to me today. I learned that he was in Ramallah; he had Shawarma from “Abu-Iskandar”, one of my favorite places in Ramallah; his nephew has an Electrical Engineering degree; the nephew used AI and made Suhail look like he was giving his talk in Russian. Definitely, it is the voice of Suhail, but I am not responsible for the AI if he is saying the right things… My next project will be to use AI and speak in at least 3 different languages. Sorry for the details (I am not a “like” or “heart” click-person 😊))); here is the video.

December 18, 2023: Our new chancellor Tod Laursen is a poet too, I TRULY and HONESTLY love what he said (as AUS ranked 3 in UAE
in sustainability): “We continuously work on fostering a culture that values environmental stewardship, social equity and economic resilience. This is a dynamic journey, a continuous effort to inspire and equip the next generation with the knowledge and tools needed to shape a future where both humanity and the Earth thrive in harmony,” I wish we do. My bad experience with people calling for environmental protection is this (2014): click. Still, I must admit the new generation is more humane and aware of things than my generation. I put it in simple street language: “Better to try than do nothing about it.”
December 9, 2023: We are proud of our math student Furzeen Kamran | Summa Cum Laude (graduated Fall 2023); she was my awesome Discrete Math Grader. I stole her picture from the net.

She was kind enough and agreed to take a picture with me
October 27, 2023: In pure Mathematics, we often create problems and try to solve them, and sometimes it takes years and even hundreds of years before a solution is found. So, a scary thought came to me: What do politicians do? Damn, this is scary! I have no words to describe the madness that we are witnessing. Thanks to the Country singer Garth Hewitt for this song, click here.

July 18, 2023: Suheel Khoury talked to me, complaining that the views for the first video I posted for him on YOUTUBE went down from 700+ to 500+. His research reveals that YouTube will increase views by one if you watch at least 60% of the video, “clicking on then off within seconds” will be detected by YouTube and will not be counted. He sent me this video, this time in Russia, and asked me to post it, hoping he would get more views. If you are not in this area of research, I recommend that you do as I do, I will let it run on mute in the background for 25 minutes, then close it, so it will be counted as viewed. From the video, I noticed “Alexi” is a big fan and a follower of Suheel; here is the video. Click here.
July 10--15, 2023: An Algebra Conference was held in Fes-Morocco from July 12-15, 2023 in honor of my lifetime friend and companion since the age of -9 months, Ayman Badawi; click here.
