Kooo? Kebab

To change my mod i went out to salmiya , picked up Tat and went there .

I was parking my car outside Sultan Center in Salmiya when I first spotted this place. Its located in the backside area near the clinic and because of the name I felt I had to try their Kebabs.

After I was done shopping I put the bags in the trunk of my car and walked over to Kooo? Kebab to order some food. I ordered two Kebab sandwich with no pickles and a coke. Total price? 900fils. I was like “Damn B” this must be some seriously good Kebab if they are charging 400 a piece for it. So, I picked up my two Kebabs and headed to the car where I started eating them.

After my first bite I turned around and told Tat this was a 2.5, but the more I ate it the more I hated it. The Kebab was really bad, like really bad. It tasted really greasy and the garlic flavor was no where to be found so there was nothing to cover up the god awful taste of the Sheep. It was so bad that once I was done with my first Kebab I threw the second one away. I had NEVER done that before!

Now if this was any ordinary crappy place selling Kebabs for 200fils then I might expect something this bad, but 400fils for a Keb ab, thats the big league, fuck that, thats the super league. Most top scoring kebab places charge 300 fils for a sandwich and this joint was charging 400 for the worst kebabs I have ever had. Even the Pepsi can was the small 250ml one, who still sells these, even Bader Al Badoor sells the 330ml Coke cans!

So super high price, small Pepsi can, and most importantly the worst kebab I have ever experienced in my life earned this place half a star out of a possible five. It only got that half star because if I was stuck in the desert with no food except for their kebab then I would consider eating it.

Kareem Amer A blogger jailed are you next ?

A 22-year-old Egyptian blogger named Abdul Kareem Suleiman Amer assumed the handle ‘Kareem Amer’ on his blogblogong time ago but now people from around the world know him by this name. His blogblogtings, in favor of secularism and women’s rights, led to his expulsion from al-Azhal Azharrsity in early 2006 and solitary confinement in prison since November. This morning an Alexandria court sentenced Kareem to four years in prison for criticcriticizingian President Mubarak and insulting Islam

You may not agree with what Kareem said , but thats not the point , the point is people are getting jailed for saying what they think , your thoughts shouldn’t be jailed
yes i may not agree with at least 1/2 of the blogs that apear on safat agregator religous or political belifs but thats doesn’t mean i want to silince them , for to silence them is indicator that you are weak , your argument can’t not hold up to his argument

Our freedom is shrinking Isp blocking sites left and right , site begin hacked , i heard rumors of the internal secuirty employing newly captured hackers

Iran was cracking down on bloggers , now egypyt , i think we are close by

Today they took kareem , tomorow they come for you !
more information and new at free Kareem
Oh and on a final note , if Kuwait did start to crack down on blogs i wouldn’t last more than a day or two , so i would probably confess about you fast

Our Rights shouldn’t be thrown out !

Our Fablous Government is throwing yet more of our Rights away

I don’t know why our government is always Eager to sign anything that they are presented with , not sure there is much thinking going on there

Now According to the [BBC]

The most disturbing illustration of this double standard is the IIPA’s criticism of compulsory copyright licensing requirements.

Countries around the world, particularly those in the developing world (including Indonesia, the Philippines, Lebanon, Kuwait, Nigeria, and Vietnam) all face demands to eliminate compulsory licensing schemes in the publishing and broadcasting fields.

Kuwait is going to give up compulsory copyright license
What is That you ask ?
it is an exception to copyright law that is usually philosophically justified as an attempt by the government to correct a market failure.
Some compulsory licenses protect those who wish to use a work for educational or non-commercial purposes.

Why there is no Student price for Software like Windows ?
