This paper is the second of two papers presenting the results of a qualitative analysis of interviews inviting Arabic-Canadian immmigrant adolescents and parents to reflect on the stories they tell each other in the context of everyday family life. The first paper provides the results of a Grounded Theory Methodology and proposes a substantive theory of intergenerational storytelling during.

April is the month of updates here on my lame, stepchild of a blog. vickerinc.com is up and Kicking. I am very fortunate to have Brycen helping me out with some of the design changes coming up. (After 2 years in beta, it gets old, even to me). But now it is up and you should check it out. Vicker Inc - Rocklin Computer Repair. There it is, hit it up.
I am very excited to finally finish my 'Switch to Fusion' Ad/Video. The opertnity could have not come at a better time as I my self had just switched because Parallels had been giving me a lot of problems.
I have a very good history with VMware, back in my dark PC days, I used VMware as my only virtualization product to run Vista along side XP along side Ubuntu. It 'Just worked.'
So now that brings me to my long awaited switch to Apple. After the big jump, I still need a way to use Office 2007 for Windows as Office 2008 for the Mac had not come out yet, so I virtualized with Parallels alongside BootCamp for gaming. I quickly found out that Parallels liked to do things on its own, without my knowledge, resulting in its demise and an infenent BSOD inside Parallels and BootCamp.
After switching to VMware all these things became a non issue, thanks to VMware, I have 'A Whole New Way To Slice It.'
Lastly, Please enjoy this tribute to VMware Fusion:
Today marks the official beginning of Vicker Inc., a software/design/repair company started by me, Elias Eldabbagh to further push my endeavors in Information Technologies and Graphic Design.
While looking through all the ways you can hack the Apple TV at aTV Hacks, I came across an awesome plug-in that ads the option to exit from the Apple TV BackRow App.
BackRow is a media element that can be installed in Mac OS X instead of FrontRow, the media center application.
I later remade the icon to match more beautifully with the GUI, click here to find out more.

If you are a music device owner, it is time to tell UMG to shut up. I am getting sick and tired of these music mafiosos calling legit music buyers, aka the customers, criminals.
The biggest culprit is Universal Music Group, and it is time to teach them a lesson. Last week it was David Greffen who said “Each of these devices is used to store unpaid-for material.” Now UMG CEO Doug Morris tells Billboard.com that “These devices are just repositories for stolen music, and they all know it.”
All right folks lets teach these guys a lesson. Just don’t buy any of their music for one week. Just one week say no to UMG. He will realize that people actually buy music, not steal it. If anyone wants to put up a wiki with all the UMG artists/labels to help this digital disobedience movement, let me know. No point reasoning with these guys.

Macbook samsung galaxy. Interviews with 20 mothers, fathers, adolescent sons and daughters from Arabic immigrant families elicited descriptions of participants’ experiences of storytelling in their families. Constructivist grounded theory analysis of interview data provided an initial conceptualization of intergenerational storytelling during adolescence that both reflects and serves to influence parent-adolescent relationships as well as the broader cultural domain through story content, storytellers’ intentions, and responsive interaction. This preliminary substantive theory presents storytelling in immigrant families during adolescence as relationally grounded, influenced and expressed through a cultural/language “prism,” responsive and active in moving relationships toward or away from connection, and dependent on story content/context as well as the storyteller’s delivery and listener’s response. These findings have implications for extending theoretical conceptualization of family interactions during adolescence beyond conflict, monitoring, and peer influences. In addition, practical implications for supporting and understanding the day-to-day interactions that support parent-adolescent relationships and cultural minority families are highlighted
