Test Blogger

while I was working on a picture of a cute little child (who seems to found her way to deal with this machine) with Photoshop, I decided to upload it on blogger but after some modifications, and here is the original picture:

The
Professional
Programmer!








I removed the background and delete it which means only the child and the computer remained, and then made the image a transparent GIF so that it would take the background color of the web page, but guess what? the Blogger fill the background with white color as if it save it in another format.
and this is the picture after removing the background, the background color shouldn't be white.

Don't Limit Your abilities

I saw a video at YouTube that inspired me, and really proved to me that there isn't anything impossible in this life, here is the link if you want to see it in YouTube

Getting a huge list of Universities URLs

I was asked by my doctor during the semester to create a list of universities URLs and make it as large as possible, and since I have finished my exams, I started to create it by downloading a number of lists of the world universities from the Internet (one of them contains 113 pages from http://univ.cc/ website).

I developed a program to read these files and extract the URL from the anchor tag, and finally I ended up with a list of 7080 universities URLs, which was my second list after getting a list of 128708 but with redundant data.
