something i found on the web and it was funny

AlQabas Again

Another Proof that newspapers in kuwait are becoming wrose every day , i just hope the new newspaper inspire them
to imporve , but i feel it wouldn’t

Now reading today newspapers , i found this on alqabas newspaper

أجريت مسابقة لأفضل زي من مسرحية أو فيلم سينمائي أو عمل تلفزيوني، في مدينة سيئول بكوريا الجنوبية يوم أمس، بمشاركة متسابقين وازياء من مختلف أنحاء العالم. (الصورة: متسابقتان تعرضان ازياء فنية)

Yesterday there was a contest for the best costume from a play or a cinematic movie or a TV series in Seoul in south Korea
with contestant and customes from around the world ( picture : 2 contestant showing their costume )

Link to the article in the newspaper online site

And i was like . Wait a minute , what kind of discription is that ? those customes are for play or TV series , they are for a Game ,
and since i was playing that Game ( World of Warcraft ) i know what they were wearing and what it mean
the company had an event in South Korea at that time also !

from the press relase from blizzard site

SEOUL, South Korea – May 19, 2007 – Blizzard Entertainment® today unveiled StarCraft® II, the sequel to its award-winning real-time strategy game StarCraft, at the 2007 Blizzard Worldwide Invitational event in Seoul, South Korea. The announcement took place inside the Olympic Gymnastics Arena

And it has no relation what so ever to the description they wrote ! , movies ? TV series ? what gives ?

But you may say ” what if they were talking about another event ”

Well the picture they provided in the article clearly show where it was taken ( which by the way they didn’t credit to no one , typical Alqabas fashion )

See the picture they have , check the upper part

Now check the Olympic Gymnastics Arena picture
( taken by Yoshito Isono link )

Here is a bigger Picture of the stadium

My point ? The newspaper had a picture , didn’t know what was happening , someone wrote some random stuff
that may be fine for a student newspaper but i expected better from a respected newspaper .

For more about bad perfomance of kuwaiti newspaper you can check my older posts here and here not to forget this

Kuwaiti Hero ..

So i was checking my e-mail today and see that Teshkeel Media Group the publishers behind the 99 ( who i talked about in pervious posts here and here ) have annouced a new hero

sadly its not a Kuwaiti hero , it was a Jordanian hero which co operation with Jordanian company Aramex and he is Baeth (The Sender) is a logistics wiz and is Aramex incarnate.

but that got me thinking , who do you think should be the kuwait hero or heroine ? what name should it take ? ( notice that all the powers / names are based on the 99 names of god another site explaining the names and meaning here )

to get an idea of who is who right now in 99 world check this page

So if you got a change to create the kuwaiti hero in the 99 world ( Saudi arabia & UAE got their heroies , i assume we are next ) what would you name it ? and what gender would it be ? 🙂

Kuwaiti Blogger Conspiracy …

Alwatan Newspaper discovered a kuwaiti blogger conspiracy
according to their news post

تشير هذه الشخصية البرلمانية الى ان «التجربة اثبتت ان المدونات الالكترونية نوعان، احدهما مؤقت أو غير متواصل يظهر ويغيب أو ربما يظل فترة بسيطة فلا يعود بعدها، وهذا وراءه نصف هواة أو مبتدئون أو نزوة فرّغت شحنة نفسية وانتهت.. اما الثاني فهم اصحاب اجندة عمل واهداف مرسومة ويتبعون تنظيما أيا كان حجمه.. فعملهم ليس صدفة أو نزوة، وفي النوعين تتوافر السرية.. الاول ضاعت حقيقته باستبعاد صاحبه عما اقدم عليه.. والثاني يظل يتداول فعله مع محيط عمله وفق آلية لها حدود العلن وآفاق الكتمان».

The Parliament member says that the ” experience prove that blogs are two kinds , one is a temporary and not continued appear and disappear and maybe stay for a short while but never return and this is from half amateurs
