Birth is not the start of a new human life, it is just a change in the baby’s environment. A new life actually begins in the womb when a single sperm cell from the father fertilizes an egg from the mother. The life of the child in the womb is neither more or less important than that of the mother. Therefore, there is no religion or ethics permits abortion. There are two types of abortion; spontaneous – a natural miscarriage – and induced, the deliberate killing of unborn child. We are going to talk about the second type, the induced one. Abortion denies the human rights, the right of living. Some social problems lead women to end their pregnancy such as: unstable relationships, poor housing and financial insecurity, but abortion does not solve social problems. In Islam, the unborn child has certain rights as protection and life. Abortion on any ground in Islam is forbidden; “Do not kill or take a human life which God has declared to be sacred” (Chapter 6, verse 151). The Catholic and The Orthodox Churches also oppose abortion. In Hinduism, Ghandi, the most respected Hindu of the 20th century, said: “It seems to me clear as daylight that abortion would be a crime.” So they consider the abortionists the greatest of sinners. But all religions including Islam agree that there are exceptions to permit abortion such as mother’s health and disability of the unborn child. However, some people are with abortion in all cases as in the attached article herein.
“Social media is changing the way we communicate and the way we are perceived, both positively and negatively. Every time you post a photo, or update your status, you are contributing to your own digital footprint and personal brand.” ,Amy Jo Martin
Social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace allow you to find and connect with just about anyone. but such easy, casual connection in an electronic environment can also have its downside. According to Cornell University’s Steven Strogatz, social media sites can make it more difficult for us to distinguish between the meaningful relationships we foster in the real world and the numerous casual relationships formed through social media. Social media does not maintain the privacy of persons; Social networking sites encourage people to be more public about their personal lives. Because intimate details of our lives can be posted so easily, users are prone to bypass the filters they might normally employ when talking about their private lives. Also, Social networking sites bring out the boring side in many people, turning them into crashing bores who will detail what they ate for breakfast and the manner in which their body expelled it several hours later. Youngsters especially could become convinced that they are more important than anyone else, and that what they have to say should be read and responded to by a wider audience. There is also vaguebooking, which is a crime in its own right.

“A woman’s mind is cleaner than a man’s: She changes it more often”. Oliver Herford
In this quote it seems that the writer discriminates to the females, he said that there mind is cleaner but this is not right because there are a lot of men minds better than women. Male and female minds are equal but people are all different. Also if we think that woman’s mind is cleaner then we have to accept the idea that men are better in some jobs than women. This will make the woman loses the right to do a lot of things in the society. Also we cannot leave the whole thinking and the jobs that required planning to women because there is not any proof that women minds are better than men. Men and women thinking are the same but everyone has his own point of view. If we accept the idea of discrimination any gender this will lead to violence. Also a study has shown that there’s really not much in the way of difference between male brains and female brains. There are features that are more prevalent in the brains of women and features that are more prevalent in the brains of men. But human brains tend to have a highly individual mix of such characteristics.

Revenge
Revenge is a hard and effective word. Revenge is a weapon for people who lose their hope in themselves and faith in God. Revenge on my point of view used with people who have weak personalities, who live in dreams away from real life, who lack self confident and can’t control their anger. All of us have a lot of bad experiences through our lives. But if all of us leave themselves for their feelings of taking revenge from someone or something, we will live in a forest. Successful people with strong personalities have no time for revenge. They always concentrate on their lives, families, career…etc. Successful people also believe that success is their only revenge. Finally people should rethink on the meaning of the word “revenge” in’ Christopher Nolan’s quote, taking into consideration the meaning of the word “revenge” in Douglas Horton’s quote, and see the word “revenge” from perspective of Patricia Cornwell’s quote.

Censorship
Censorship is prevalent in the modern society. It is a highly divisive issue. There are proponents who think that its use creates a balance in what ought to be said and written. There is a dispute as to whether censorship is good or bad. It is applicable to programs on television, plays, movies, printed books, print magazines, video games and everything on the Internet. But in my opinion it has many disadvantages, such as; Dictators use censorship to promote a flattering image of themselves and for removing any information that goes against them, it gives rise to and hides abuse of human rights, and it works against creativity.But we can’t deny that it has someadventages such as, it restrains vulgarity and obscenity, and the surfeit of violence in movies and TV is restricted by it.Censorship is just like a double-edge sword. If used properly, it serves as a valuable weapon. However, it can also be misused.

The crisis of driving in Egypt
Egyptian traffic drives on the right side of the road but they use the left side of the road if this section is better, has less speed bumps or if there are camels on the road. So don’t be alarmed when someone drives on the wrong side of the road and comes directly at you. Driving in Egypt is very hard, it is almost impossible for any person with heart condition. The majority forget a lot of things from the traffic laws. For example, the seatbelt, it is obligatory to the driver to wear the seatbelt and also the person next to him. But in Egypt no one do that, even if it is for their safety. Also it is forbidden for a driver of a car to use the mobile phone or smoke. But in Egypt it is like a habit for any driver. Doing anything like that seems to be silly, but it can claim our lives .Traffic laws are for our safety so we all should follow it.

“What About First Oscars For You?”
Egyptian journalist Shaimaa Abdel Moneim, who was sent by Al Youm7, sparked a wave of laughter in the room after asking that incomprehensible question to Leonardo DiCaprio at the 2016 Academy Awards ceremony. People criticized Al Youm7 for sending someone who does not speak English fluently to cover such an important event. They also criticized Abdel Moneim for not having prepared a good question, for her bad accent, and for lack of self confidence adding that she did not miss a chance to take photos of herself with celebrities’ statues. However, some Egyptians have supported her saying that she only got confused and this could happen to anyone. Despite the fact that she was not enough qualified for this task, the humiliation and criticism she received for her performance was exaggerated and impolite somehow as this affected her family. People could have criticized the performance but not the person herself. She said that she sinned against herself and her country and that she received an opportunity and missed it because of her lack of experience. It is clear that from her words she admitted that she was not enough qualified and she has no experience but also, she promised that she will learn from this lesson and her work on herself to be better. She could learn from her mistake without the humiliation which she received from people. At the end of the day, we are all humans and have mistakes and as long as we are living, we continue to learn more and more from our mistakes.

Tourism
Tourism is one of the most important economic resources to Egypt, especially in these days; As, Egypt’s tourism income represents 11.3% of its gross domestic product. So we need to think of how we can revive tourism?
Tourism cannot be revive by a visit of an official delegation to ITB Berlin. We need to think out of the box, we need a new ideas that can keep pace with the world. There are a lot of ideas for example:
1 Luxor fashion week like Paris fashion week.
2 Invite the winner of UEFA champion’s league to enjoy week in Egypt.
3 Work on a big event of the Egyptian kitchen with celebrities’ chef like Jamie Oliver.
There are a lot of ideas out of the box that can be applied by cooperating global celebrities with the Egyptian youth to attract tourists to visit Egypt. #VisitEgypt
