I have a thing for strange clocks/watches. Something that is a mathmatical standard can have many arbitary definitions and shapes.
‘It’s about time’ gives a rough account of the time using words to give a true reflection of how people view time.
Always been a fan of Van Gogh, seen his museum in Amsterdams more times than I can remember. Even visited his house in France. Yet I am so familiar with his art, but not his words. It really gives more insight to his thoughts and ideas besides his works.
“If I haven’t written for a long time, it’s because, having to struggle against my illness and to calm my head, I hardly felt like having discussions, and found danger in these abstractions”
“Art is long and life is short, and we must wait patiently while trying to sell our skin dearly.”
“You have to eat well, be well housed, have a screw from time to time, smoke your pipe and drink your coffee in peace.”
We always hear about the Saudi Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice and their tactics of fear and as beatings to force people to follow there mentality. Well it seems the Saudi girls aren’t goign to take it anymore and fought back! Then the best part is they get taken to the police station and released without charges.
Two commission [Mutawas] members approached the girls in order to “politely” advise and guide them regarding their inappropriate clothing.
Consequently, the two girls started verbally abusing the commission members, which then lead to one of the girls pepper-spraying them in the face as the other girl filmed the incident on her mobile phone, while continuing to hurl insults at them.
The Eastern Province’s head of the commission also revealed that with the help of the police his two employees were able to control the situation.
The two females were then escorted to the police station where they apologized for the attack, were cautioned and then released.

Seems that Apple has finally made a stand on those iPhone unlocks and enjoy them while they last. Apple plans to make them bricks with future updates and not under any warranty.
Apple has discovered that many of the unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs available on the Internet cause irreparable damage to the iPhones software, which will likely result in the modified iPhone becoming permanently inoperable when a future Apple-supplied iPhone software update is installed.
Found this pic on Flickr, really different view of it compared to being in it. I think this was taken in an industrial/military area from the nicely laid shacks and containers.
It seems as if the sand will just eat that place alive.

I attended the grand opening for Baroue. It is a new store at the Avenues that caters to children and is a Kuwaiti concept. These guys have put a lot of passion and dedication to this and it shows.
I was impressed with it size and attention to details and just how it attends to both parents and children. You really have to check it out to really see all the features and wonder feeling from just entering the place.
