Al-Ghanim is offering the HP Mini-Note with reduced price of just KD99 during the Eid holiday. I think its a good deal since it was KD150 at Al-Ghanim

Thanks Abdullah

Taken from their website:

V-Net:

“Get high-speed Internet access on your laptop when you are on the move with VIVA 3.5G Data Card. It offers data transmission on laptop at speed up to 14.4 Mbps with V-Net (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) coverage.

Two packages for V-Net:

• Pay as you go package, activated by default for all type of subscribers. This package is rated per Kbyte, 1 fils per Kbyte.
• Unlimited package, this package is for 27KD/month.”

V-Link:

“When you plug a USB Modem into a laptop, it connects you to the web instantly. V-Link is a perfect option for Internet access on the go. Welcome the super slim and lightweight. You get freedom from wires and speedy Internet access on the move all in a tiny 30g V-Link Modem.

Just plug the V-Link into your USB slot and watch as everything auto-installs, it’s quick and easy, and with V-Net you can get the Usave broadband Internet access speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps.”

I don’t know what is the difference between these 2 services except that in the V-Net there is no modem mention and the speed is up to 14.4, and on the V-Link there is the modem but the speed is up to 7.2.

Thanks Khalid.

This is my my first attempt of drop shooting .. I shot these pics with my macro lens but i didnt expect it to be at this level of difficulty. I got these two pictures out of almost 80+ pics! any suggestion ?

My friend bought his new E180 ego a few days ago from their airport branch. Here is what I know about it:

• It’ll support the new 14.4 network speed.
• It has 2 slots: 1 for the simcard and the other is for a mini SD card (up to 8 gb)
• It costs KD45 if you already have a data line, and KD35 for the new subscribers.
• It is much smaller and lighter than the one I’m using now (1st generation).
• Better upload rate even on existing speeds.
• It has a new revamped built-in software for both windows and Macs. Plug and play sort of thing. (Finally!)

We were invited by Ahmad’s in law’s to their farm in Abdali so we decided to head to Abdali in the early morning to enjoy the full day there. So at 9:00 i was ready and waiting at my in law’s and then we all headed to Abdali. We arrived around 10:30 and we, me and ahmad, went to take some pictures in the farm (which was beyond AMAZING mashalah). And here are the pictures we’ve taken.

Personally I’d go with cheese every single time!

How about you??

Now that I’m full and looking at all these pictures, I can’t help but remember what my college professor (she’s Iraqi) told me when we were discussing the similarities of our dishes (Iraqi and Kuwaiti dishes). She said “we have many things in common, but we’re much more sophisticated when it comes to food, mostly because we were hugely influenced by the turks. Whereas your dishes, you of the gulf countries, your dishes aren’t presented well and sometimes I can’t even look at them. Look at your harees or whatever you call it for example, It looks like something that has been chewed and returned back”

Ista’3farallah.. But I think she really has a point! 😛

Me & Yousef wish you a happy Eid 🙂

So what’s your lunch for tomorrow ? Ours is Machboos from the above 😛

I know some people have been waiting for the official release for a while now. Download it HERE.

Thanks Taymoor.

Usually whenever we want some iranian food delivered to our house we order from Marafi’s, But since 9k2hn was telling us about this Babak restaurant and how well is their presentation, we figured we’d order from them this time and give them a try.

I was expecting the packaging to be slighly better than Kabab Alhejja’s.. you know the white foam boxes wrapped in strings. But this one went well above my expectations. It was very nicely packaged. I leave you with the pictures now.

The movie was released in 2005 and it’s been shown on every tv channel on earth ever since.. what is it doing being shown on Cinemas now?

Note: Picture taken from Alwatan newspaper. Yesterday’s issue.

There is a 20% discount if you paid using KFH cards. Don’t forget that when you’re paying next time.

Thanks Ahmad

In the supermarket near the bread section.

Ali just spotted an elevator parking near Villa Fairoz.

It was actually under testing and not officially launched. I remembered i saw this one when i was in Tokyo in 2004 and it took us 4 years to get this technology to Kuwait. I think a 4 years lag is not that much looking at the gap in technology between Kuwait and Japan 🙂

Thanks Ali

UPDATE:

Ali also capture it in motion .. Thanks again 🙂

Incase the video isn’t working, you can check it out HERE.

The new kama elresha version 🙂

Thanks 9K2HN

Can you imagine that the US in 1973 was thinking of taking over the oil fields in Kuwait, Saudi and Abudhabi?

Very interesting read:

“The United States government seriously contemplated using military force to seize oil fields in the Middle East during the Arab oil embargo 30 years ago, according to a declassified British government document made public on Thursday.

The top-secret document says that President Richard M. Nixon was prepared to act more aggressively than previously thought to secure America’s oil supply if the embargo, imposed by Arab nations in retaliation for America’s support for Israel in the 1973 Middle East war, did not end. In fact, the embargo was lifted in March 1974.

The declassified British memorandum said the United States considered launching airborne troops to seize oil fields in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Abu Dhabi, but only as a ”last resort.””

“As outlined in the memorandum, military action would be relatively straightforward: two brigades were estimated to be needed to seize the Saudi oil fields and one each for Kuwait and Abu Dhabi. In the case of Abu Dhabi, the Americans might ask for British military cooperation.

The greatest threat would arise in Kuwait, the document said, ”where the Iraqis, with Soviet backing, might be tempted to intervene.”
