Hi Everybody: I came accross this incidentally. A couple of you mentioned Girma Joro. Funny how our nick names follow us all our lives and here it is twenty something years later. Yep I live in Minnesota. Some of the guys like Geremew I remember as we were big buddies growing up and Kuku is my younger brother.

What a nice commsent about lamberet. as u said no matter how it has nothing it is a place where we grew up happily. Gultie

What do they do with the church? Are there priests in the palace? Or the prime minister has a part time job ;-)

THE ONLY CREATOR........JESUS.......THE NAME OF REDEMPTION FOR ALL...THE SOURCE OF PEACE.......THE WAY OF HEAVEN.........

Hello Everybody !! Dawit Berhe and I was amazed to meet Bisrat Halemeskel, Yohannes Takele, Mentwaab Takele , Fasil Mekonnen and Birhane Abraham in Vancouver, Canada in December 30 / 2011, after we haven't seen them for approximately 35 years, who all attended Ras Mesfin Seleshi elementary school in early 1970s and late 1960s. We will soon post Photographs to encourage others to do the same, who had beautiful memories of this Historical School.

In Entoto TVET colleges Really good and stragle time and ireally had very good time.

It really good that out country is developing so fast, I so happy to be part of this great country. I was there well it was building, and I have seen it after it was completed and it is really great.

kidddy ye ye ye ye ... I miss xmas party!!

Introduce of project performing: After successful completion of the automation and digitization project of the library of institute of Ethiopian Studies in Addis Ababa University, Saramagd Int'l Co. participated in another tender for the automation and digitization of the Ethiopian Radio and due to the experience of the previous project and other activities in Ethiopia, managed to win the tender and started the implementation stages of the project. Saramagd Int'l Co. used some modern project management and value engineering techniques and methods to define the first phase of the project using 5 technical and managerial teams. • Practical Scheme The project was organized in four practical stages: Networking and Hardware Software A/D Conversion Transmission to Antenna (OnAir) Networking and Hardware Prepration: Saramagd Int'l Co. anticipated 5 work stations (DAW) along with a server and an MSA storage system with the capacity of 6 terrabytes. A network with 1 Gbit/s speed was then implemented. In each of the studios that were selected for this phase, four nodes were aunticipated. Also a separate and proprietary power network was designed and implemented solely for being used by this project. In this network, a 3com switch with 1 Gbit/s speed was used and an appropriate earth well was designed and created for earthing the equipment used in the project. Designing this earth well, by itself, was a very good step, and the radio officials were happy to have a good and suitable earth well and design of this well by Iranian professionals has stimulated their admiration. Software Prepration: In this project, a second version of the DGL software was designed and implemented for being used for broadcasting in radio staions. The software, like its predecessor, supports the Amharic language (official language of Ethiopia) and all the information fields are based on MARC 21 standards, and is compatible with both speech and music files. The software is able to ask the user to select some files and make a playlist and send the playlist directly to the antenna via itself. Detailed information about this software can be found in DGL 2 section of the software products section of this site. Analogue to Digital (A/D) Conversion: This phase is consisted of 17 steps and is the longest part of the project. In this phase all the tapes which were selected by radio officials for the first phase, have been captured and two back ups from the digital files were created. All the information related to each file was also entered and saved in the DGL 2 software. All the files have been captured and saved in the wave format, and then for reducing the size of each file, all of them have been transformed to another format (which was a compressed one). All of the files then were seved on some high-capacity electromagnetic tapes which are designed for back up systems. Saramagd int'l co. Designed a special managment method for this project which is unique and helps keeping the old system along with the new one and creates a connection between the two. Also this system creates a way for data entry that prevents any kind of error for dara entry of over 200,000 files in this project. Transmission to Antenna: The heart of the project is this part, which is the last step in implementation of the project. After capturing and data entry of all the tapes, and creating search and retrieval methods for the software, there should be a way to transmit the selected files, directly to the antenna using the some software. In fact, the real meaning of automation can be seen by this feature. For doing so, some interfaces have been created for attaching the comuter to the OnAir table, and also some software features have been added to DGL2 software so that the output of the sound card of the computer was connected to the input of the OnAir system, and also the control signal of the OnAir system was connected to the computer. In this way, the OnAir system was able to tell the computer to play the selected playlists.

I graduated from Bole H. in 1979 EC/1987, I miss my friends. I live in US now.
