• Portraits: Paris, London, York and Montmartre - Part 1/3 Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  November 19, 2013

  I encountered Paris and London three times, two times at a distance some 60 years ago as a boy growing up in Cairo, the first was a happy encounter in the early 1950s and the second was a sad one when the two capitals were involved in the invasion of Egypt in 1956. The third time was last week as a visitor to the two capitals.

• Portraits: Paris, London, York and Montmartre - Part 2/3 Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  November 28, 2013

  I love the portrait of the 1800 Strand, where I stayed in London this summer, given by British author E. V. Lucas, in his classic A Wanderer in London. He says, "The most Bohemian of London streets, if the Strand could cross to Paris it would instantly burgeon into a boulevard. Its prevailing type is of the stage: the blue chin of Thespis is very apparent there, and the ample waistcoat of the manager is prominent too."

• Portraits: Paris, London, York and Montmartre - Part 3/3 Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  November 28, 2013

  Time has dealt kindly with York. Still it is possible to find here almost continuous pageant of the ages from Roman times, and possibly even earlier than that, down to the president day.

• I love orangutans, but they aren't our "cousins" Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  December 8, 2013

  A cartoon shows two women at a coffee shop. One is holding a book, Secrets of How Orangutans Speak, and saying: It's done wonders to our marriage.

• Egypt's 2014: Why I am optimisticProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  January 16, 2014

  In 2013 Egypt had a tough year.

• Should humans have a mating season every 7 years? Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  February 18, 2014

  Orangutans belong to the order primates, which is the group of animals including monkeys, apes and humans. Since the primates include ourselves and all of our closest relatives, it makes sense if we learn a few things from them.

• Two white killers on the loose Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  January 29, 2014

  Out of some fifty countries I visited and five where I worked as a professor; the US, Canada, Switzerland, Kuwait, and my birth country Egypt, observing local diet especially among young university students, I found Egyptians consume sugar and salt the most.

• The lucky country, Part 1/4Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  February 18, 2014

  In a virtual visit to Australia before embarking on my recent tour of the country, I consulted four classics by four well known Australians; Alan Moorehead's The Fatal Impact, Patrick White's The Vivisector, Donald Horne's The Lucky Country, and Colin Roderick's Henry Lawson. I also watched two Australian films; Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002) and Australia (2008) - more about these two historical dramas in part 4.

• The lucky country, Part 2/4Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  February 18, 2014

  You can reach and touch the soul of Australia by reading Henry Lawson's poems. My three favorites are: The Star of Australasia, The City Bushman and Second Class Wait Here - all written in the late 1800s. Here I share the first one because of its beauty and historical significant.

• The lucky country, Part 3/4Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
  February 18, 2014

  Thanks to Alan Moorehead I now know about a great Australian woman; Daisy May Bates (1859 - 1951). Moorehead in his 1966 classic The Fatal Impact talked about her life and her writings with a great admiration.
