What would you do

I would kill this guy.

A husband who discovers he is HIV positive in 2004, tries twice to inject his wife with his blood, and successfully get her infected, by injecting a needle wit his blood while she’s sleeping, just so she wouldn’t leave him.

The woman felt a sting twice at night, and when she asked him if he had done something he denied it.

The woman is said to have agreed to stay married to him even though he is an HIV positive person for the sake of their children.

Seriously I would kill him.

I entered a toilet in Singapore’s airport and couldn’t help but notice how clean the toilet is and that the smell was pleasant. Then, and as I was washing my hands I noticed this screen on the wall where it featured 4 faces, the faces of employees responsible of cleaning the toilets, and the guy who was handling the cleaning that day was highlighted. The screen lets you evaluate the toilet’s condition and put in your feedback and the person with the best feedback results gets something.

 





how-did-the- computer-smiley-start Scott E  Fahlman

Back in 1982 the usage of online bulletin boards were common and they used to communicate and discuss all sort of stuff on those boards. They used to have a problem understanding some of the posts. Some of the posts were intended as a joke, or someone was being sarcastic, but then some wouldn’t get it and start a whole fight and rally up against what was supposed to be taken as a joke.

Then, on September of 1982, a bunch of guys were at their computers typing away suggestions to help solve this problem. They came up with the idea of labeling a comment or mark it with something that would make it clear that the comment is a joke and isn’t intended to be taken seriously. Some of the guys suggested:

“I think that the joke character should be the sequence {#} because it looks like two lips with teeth showing between them.”

“No, no, no! Surely everyone will agree that “&” is the funniest character on the keyboard. It looks funny”

But then came along this one guy, who typed a message that would leave a lasting impact on computer users all over the world. And this is what he had to say:

“19-Sep-82 11:44 Scott E Fahlman
From: Scott E Fahlman

I propose that the following character sequence for joke markers:

: – )

Read it sideways. Actually, it is probably more economical to mark
things that are NOT jokes, given current trends. For this, use

: – (“

And just like that, it snowballed, and the computer smiley was created!

2 Girls picking after trash

As I was going through my pictures I came across a picture I took of my friends, and in the background were these 2 women. We were at the beach when we saw these 2 women carrying 2 big black bags, walking along the beach picking and cleaning what other trashy people threw away.

I don’t clean up after others so I won’t be preaching when it comes to that, but I don’t trash either, and I wish we’d take this issue more seriously. You know what I do when I have something I want to throw when and I can’t find a bin? I put it in my pocket! I can always throw it out laer. You won’t be fined if you were found with a tissue or a little plastic wrapper in your pockets…

 





I just came back from a one week vacation (Paris packages are just great!) and I miss it already.

I spent the first day of Eid in Kuwait with my family and flew to Paris at night. However since Paris is enormous and there are different places that many people visit simultaneously, crime has been reported from time to time so we were reminded of some areas to avoid in paris. We arrived in the morning and we didn’t spare a minute and went straight to La Duree for breakfast, after dropping our luggages at the hotel Read the rest of this entry »

When we first decided to go to Singapore I’ve tried to do some Google search on the restaurant there, and wrote a list of restaurant to choose from, one of them was Lawry’s whose kitchen was spotless thanks to the local restaurant hood cleaning service. Let me first talk about it’s theme, well it reminded me a lot of Entrocote but not the food, it doesn’t have a set menu or any thing but I mean the decor and the waitresses who dressed like a french maids.

As I mentioned before this was my third visit to Singapore, and also my third stay in Marriott hotel which I think the main point of choosing this hotel for three times in a row for it’s location, you can’t imagine how close this hotel to the malls or how this hotel is located in between the malls which makes it unbelievable, I used to book the standard room for about KD80 per night including breakfast, but this time one of my friends recommended the Pool Terrace room which costs me KD118. For more details of the pool terrace room click below.

My friend brought his cubelite over to the shalaih once and we did the photoshoot for this Shake Shack burger, and I loved it. I loved how practical it is, and how it made taking the photos so easy. My main source of annoyance when I take photos of food is the lighting. I hate it, and it almost always suck. And the other source of annoyance would be the white balance. This studio solved both problems.

I asked him where did he get his cubelite studio and he said it is available in Arshraf. I went to Ashraf’s branch in Burj Al Awadhi and saw it there. It was a bit smaller than my friend’s, his studio was the 90cm cube, and I got the smaller one. It was just the right size for my needs.

My cubelite specifications are:

1 x White Cubelite with blue trim

2 x 500 watt daylight balanced fluorescent bulb

1 x Telescopic light stand

1 x Adjustable silver/white reflector

1 x White vinyl background sheet

1 x Carry case for the Cubelite

1 x Cardboard storage case

Dimensions: 60cm x 60cm x 60cm

Product’s LINK

I’ve used it a couple of times now and I couldn’t be happier. I love how easy it is to fold and tuck it away, so it doesn’t take much space when stored.

There are many other sizes. Mine costs KD 120, and it’s available at Ashraf.

Envy

Envy and el7asad is something mentioned in the Quran, it’s not something we’re debating nor questioning. But don’t you think we’ve been giving too much credit to the “Evil Eyes”?

People can’t have a bad thing going in their lives and not blame someone for the misfortune. No one can get into an accident anymore and not contribute it to an evil eye. it’s always 7asad, always an animus someone who has an eye out on them.

I knew it got out of hand when my brothers accused a post I did of causing harm to a member of our family. Yep they think my post had something to do with it. This means that il3ain il7arra can now travel through the internet!

I know another person who was telling me that she doesn’t share her travel plans anymore, reason being: “I went through many serious cases of 7asad and ended up not enjoying my vacation because I shared my plans with my relatives.”

Are people taking it too far? or maybe having an answer as to why things are going wrong and accusing an outsider is far more convenient than having to search for one’s mistakes.

I don’t know if I’m overly open when talking about things that are going in my life, or if people are getting overly secretive. One thing I know though.. People are giving way too much credit to il3ain il7ara.
