MAM currently occupies permanent buildings on road # 304, New Maadi. The 3500 + square meters luxurious buildings are easily reached by public transportation only 30 minutes from Cairo International Airport and down town Cairo.<br /><br />The centrally air-conditioned main building houses 8 lecture halls (each allocated to 150 students), 26 classrooms (each allocated to 40 students), 6 computer laboratories (each contains 40 PCs), library, administration offices, a cafeteria, and a clinic. All lecture rooms and classrooms are fully equipped with all required teaching facilities and sound system. Another two buildings were established afterwards, expanding the capacity for both Students and Majors.<br /><br />Historical Development of Programs<br />MAM started with the Computer Science specialization according to the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education decree no. 1570 in the year 1993. MAM, through the continuous efforts of its founding president Prof. Dr. Nabil S. Debeas, was able to add the Business Management, Accounting, and Economics specializations according to the Ministry of Higher Education decree no.18 in the year 1996.<br /><br />In the year 2001,The Managerial Information Systems program was added according to the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education decree no. 239. Currently, four departments are organizing MAM’s academic programs: the Computer Science Department, the Business Administration Department ( Management, Economics, Accounting), the Managerial Information Systems Department, and the Basic Science Department<br /><br />In 1995, MAM enrolled approximately 500 undergraduate students in all specializations. By 1999, the Academy had 3400+ students in its degree enrollment. This number increased to reach 6100+ by the academic year 2000/2001. Thanks to the offering of the Managerial Information Systems program, the number of enrollment in the year 2001/2002 reached 7000+.That substantial increase in student enrollment reflects the amount of confidence in the Academy and its material growth.<br /><br />Accreditation<br />The Modern Academy operates as a private institution of Higher learning directly under the supervision and assessment of the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education. In 1993 and 1996 MAM was licensed to confer degrees by the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education. MAM academic programs are being annually evaluated according to the quality assurance standers set by the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education.<br /><br />In 1998 the Egyptian Supreme Council for Universities recognized the Academy’s degrees to be equivalent to those awarded by Egyptian state universities; hence, came the approval of Specialized Syndicates to register the Academy’s graduates as official members in their professional organizations. According to the Ministry of Higher Education evaluations, MAM ranked first among equivalent private institutions of Higher learning in the country.<br /><br /><br /><br /></div>

Old English developed from a set of North Sea Germanic dialects originally spoken along the coasts of Frisia, Lower Saxony, Jutland, and Southern Sweden by Germanic tribes known as the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. In the fifth century, the Anglo-Saxons settled Britain and the Romans withdrew from Britain. By the seventh century, the Germanic language of the Anglo-Saxons became dominant in Britain, replacing the languages of Roman Britain (43–409 CE): Common Brittonic, a Celtic language, and Latin, brought to Britain by the Roman occupation.[21][22][23] England and English (originally Englaland and Englisc) are named after the Angles.[24]<br /><br />Old English was divided into four dialects: the Anglian dialects, Mercian and Northumbrian, and the Saxon dialects, Kentish and West Saxon.[25] Through the educational reforms of King Alfred in the ninth century and the influence of the kingdom of Wessex, the West Saxon dialect became the standard written variety.[26] The epic poem Beowulf is written in West Saxon, and the earliest English poem, Cædmon's Hymn, is written in Northumbrian.[27] Modern English developed mainly from Mercian, but the Scots language developed from Northumbrian. A few short inscriptions from the early period of Old English were written using a runic script.[28] By the sixth century, a Latin alphabet was adopted, written with half-uncial letterforms. It included the runic letters wynn <ƿ> and thorn <þ>, and the modified Latin letters eth <ð>, and ash <æ>.[28][29]<br /><br />Old English is very different from Modern English and difficult for 21st-century English speakers to understand. Its grammar was similar to that of modern German, and its closest relative is Old Frisian. Nouns, adjectives, pronouns, and verbs had many more inflectional endings and forms, and word order was much freer than in Modern English. Modern English has case forms in pronouns (he, him, his) and a few verb endings (I have, he has), but Old English had case endings in nouns as well, and verbs had more person and number endings.[30][31][32]<br /><br />The translation of Matthew 8:20 from 1000 CE shows examples of case endings (nominative plural, accusative plural, genitive singular) and a verb ending (present plural):<br /><br />    Foxas habbað holu and heofonan fuglas nest<br />    Fox-as habb-að hol-u and heofon-an fugl-as nest-∅<br />    fox-NOM.PL have-PRS.PL hole-ACC.PL and heaven-GEN.SG bird-NOM.PL nest-ACC.PL<br />    "Foxes have holes and the birds of heaven nests"[33] <br /></div>

Middle English is often arbitrarily defined as beginning with the conquest of England by William the Conqueror in 1066, but it developed further in the period from 1200–1450.<br /><br />First, the waves of Norse colonisation of northern parts of the British Isles in the 8th and 9th centuries put Old English into intense contact with Old Norse, a North Germanic language. Norse influence was strongest in the Northeastern varieties of Old English spoken in the Danelaw area around York, which was the centre of Norse colonisation; today these features are still particularly present in Scots and Northern English. However the centre of norsified English seems to have been in the Midlands around Lindsey, and after 920 CE when Lindsey was reincorporated into the Anglo-Saxon polity, Norse features spread from there into English varieties that had not been in intense contact with Norse speakers. Some elements of Norse influence that persist in all English varieties today are the pronouns beginning with th- (they, them, their) which replaced the Anglo-Saxon pronouns with h- (hie, him, hera).[35]<br /><br />With the Norman conquest of England in 1066, the now norsified Old English language was subject to contact with the Old Norman language, a Romance language closely related to Modern French. The Norman language in England eventually developed into Anglo-Norman. Because Norman was spoken primarily by the elites and nobles, while the lower classes continued speaking Anglo-Saxon, the influence of Norman consisted of introducing a wide range of loanwords related to politics, legislation and prestigious social domains.[36] Middle English also greatly simplified the inflectional system, probably in order to reconcile Old Norse and Old English, which were inflectionally different but morphologically similar. The distinction between nominative and accusative case was lost except in personal pronouns, the instrumental case was dropped, and the use of the genitive case was limited to describing possession. The inflectional system regularised many irregular inflectional forms,[37] and gradually simplified the system of agreement, making word order less flexible.[38] By the Wycliffe Bible of the 1380s, the passage Matthew 8:20 was written<br /><br />    Foxis han dennes, and briddis of heuene han nestis[39]<br /><br />Here the plural suffix -n on the verb have is still retained, but none of the case endings on the nouns are present.<br /><br />By the 12th century Middle English was fully developed, integrating both Norse and Norman features; it continued to be spoken until the transition to early Modern English around 1500. Middle English literature includes Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, and Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur. In the Middle English period the use of regional dialects in writing proliferated, and dialect traits were even used for effect by authors such as Chaucer.<br /></div>

It is the most commonly spoken language in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand, and it is widely spoken in some areas of the Caribbean, Africa, and South Asia.[6] It is the third most common native language in the world, after Mandarin and Spanish.[7] It is the most widely learned second language and is an official language of the United Nations, of the European Union, and of many other world and regional international organisations.<br /><br />English has developed over the course of more than 1,400 years. The earliest forms of English, a set of Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Great Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the fifth century, are called Old English. Middle English began in the late 11th century with the Norman conquest of England.[8] Early Modern English began in the late 15th century with the introduction of the printing press to London and the King James Bible as well as the Great Vowel Shift.[9] Through the worldwide influence of the British Empire, modern English spread around the world from the 17th to mid-20th centuries. Through all types of printed and electronic media, as well as the emergence of the United States as a global superpower, English has become the leading language of international discourse and the lingua franca in many regions and in professional contexts such as science, navigation, and law.[10]<br /><br />Modern English has little inflection compared with many other languages, and relies on auxiliary verbs and word order for the expression of complex tenses, aspect and mood, as well as passive constructions, interrogatives and some negation. Despite noticeable variation among the accents and dialects of English used in different countries and regions – in terms of phonetics and phonology, and sometimes also vocabulary, grammar and spelling – English speakers from around the world are able to communicate with one another effectively.</span></span></div>

FCC's Net neutrality rules win big in appeals court

The appeals court ruling could be the last word in a high-stakes argument over the business side of the internet, but the broadband and wireless industries will likely look for cracks in the decision that they may use in an appeal to the US Supreme Court.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">Still, the FCC has the high ground for now.

This means your broadband provider, which controls your access to the internet, can't block or slow down the services or applications you use over the web. It also means your internet provider can't create so-called fast lanes that force companies like Netflix to pay an additional fee to deliver their content to customers faster.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">Although there is broad agreement with the basic premise of Net neutrality, the <a href="http://www.cnet.com/news/net-fix-fcc-chief-on-solving-the-open-internet-puzzle-q-a/" style="color: #b80000; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all; transition-timing-function: ease;">FCC's rules have become a lightning rod for controversy</a> because the commission reclassified broadband as a public utility. It's this issue that prompted telephone companies and cable operators to band together and sue the government. They argued the new classification lets the FCC impose higher rates and will discourage companies from building or upgrading their networks. The agency has said it has no intention of regulating rates or quashing innovative business model, arguing that it reclassified broadband only to ensure it could fight legal challenges that internet providers would lob its way in the future.</div><h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; line-height: 28px; margin: 15px 0px; text-align: start; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">How did we get here?</h3><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">The issue of how or even if the government should have rules to protect the internet has been percolating for more than a decade. The FCC had adopted a set of principles for an open internet in 2005. Three years later when the agency tried to reprimand Comcast for violating those principles, a federal court <a href="http://www.cnet.com/news/net-neutrality-from-there-to-here/" style="color: #b80000; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all; transition-timing-function: ease;">ruled the FCC had no authority to take such action</a>. In 2010, the agency made good on its promise to protect the open internet with its first set of true Net neutrality regulations.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">Verizon challenged these rules in court, and in 2014, the court once again questioned the FCC's legal authority. But in a <a href="http://www.cnet.com/news/who-is-to-blame-for-the-net-neutrality-mess-look-to-verizon/" style="color: #b80000; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all; transition-timing-function: ease;">small victory for the FCC,</a> the court acknowledged the agency's concern that large broadband providers might abuse their power and suggested employing a sounder legal argument based on the 1996 Telecommunications Act.</div><div class="ad-mpu-bottom" data-ad="mpu-bottom" id="mpu-bottom-57604a62855d7" style="background-color: white; clear: right; float: right; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin: 0px -200px 30px 20px; min-height: 250px; min-width: 300px; text-align: center;"><div id="google_ads_iframe_/8264/uk-cnet/internet_2__container__" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 0px auto !important;"><iframe frameborder="0" height="250" id="google_ads_iframe_/8264/uk-cnet/internet_2" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" name="google_ads_iframe_/8264/uk-cnet/internet_2" scrolling="no" style="border-style: initial; border-width: 0px; vertical-align: bottom;" title="3rd party ad content" width="300"></iframe></div></div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">The FCC rewrote the rules in 2015, sparking public debate over how it should impose Net neutrality. The general public didn't start paying attention to this issue until June 2014. That's when comedian John Oliver devoted part of his HBO show, "Last Week Tonight," to <a href="http://www.cnet.com/news/john-olivers-net-neutrality-rallying-cry-swamps-fcc/" style="color: #b80000; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all; transition-timing-function: ease;">accusing cable companies of shaking down regulators</a> to get a rewrite of the rules. Thanks to Oliver's 13-minute rant, which called on viewers to flood the FCC with comments supporting an open internet, 4 million Americans contacted the agency, crashing its servers.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">With the public rallying support for stricter regulations, President Obama threw his weight behind the plan to reclassify broadband. The issue has been politicized along strict party lines, with the two Republican FCC commissioners opposing the rules and the three Democratic commissioners supporting them.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Proxima Nova", Proxima-Nova, proxima-nova, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px; text-align: start;">After the commission passed the rules in 2015, the broadband and wireless industries quickly sued the government stating it did not have the authority to reclassify broadband. These groups contend that the regulation will stifle innovation and raise prices for consumers</div></div>
