I found it on the Aljazeera Arabic web page, at a comment to the news about the first woman elected in the Emirates. I really am so disgusted by this, how could someone who is educated enough to use the Internet write or think in such a horrific manner!!!!

I am so very upset, we are not moving forward, this region is proving my father right over and over again, that we are the worst group of people to ever exist. I always used to get angry when my father said this stuff...but maybe he is right!!!!

Check out the article there are even more comments to make us proud of being Arab women and men!!!!

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!!!

It's not itsy-bitsy, it's not teeny-weeny - it's the burkini

Say hello to the burkini - a swimming costume designed for Muslim women. Costing £65, it is a semi-fitting two-piece swimsuit that connects to an "ahiida hijood" and it will be worn by Muslim Australian lifesavers from January.
Sydney designer Aheda Zanetti came up with the design after Surf Life Saving Australia began a drive to recruit more Islamic lifeguards, particularly women, following riots last year between Lebanese Muslim teenagers and white Australians on Sydney's Cronulla beach. The style is not exactly Baywatch - that's the whole point of it - but no one will be able to miss the women running up and down Bondi Beach in these yellow and red outfits.

However, the burkini is by no means the first Muslim swimming cossie. In 2000, the "sharia swimsuit" was all the rage in Cairo, with Egyptian women flocking to buy the high-necked costume with sleeves and a small skirt, which was worn over long trousers. Then came the "swimming hijab", also known as the "legal swimsuit" and again championed in Egypt, which was "manufactured from industrial fibres which prevent it from sticking to the skin when wet". Last year saw the launch of a Turkish swimwear collection called Hasema, consisting of a neck-to-ankle body-suit with hood. More than 40,000 units were sold. Hayrunnisa Gul, the wife of the foreign minister, was among the buyers.

So will the burkini take Australia by storm? Zanetti, 38, said it had taken her a year to persuade Muslim women in Sydney that swimming "is not a sin" and sales had soared. Her company, Ahiida sportswear, has had great feedback, which she has posted on her website: "Sister, you have a fantastic product ... I can't come up with any downsides to the swimsuits," said Arzo.

Heba was equally delighted: "I was finally able to go to my aquarobics class, and I love the swimsuit! It's so lightweight, dries so quickly and it looks great. I received compliments from non-Muslims. I don't look like a fool in the water any more, and I'm not weighed down by all the heavy wet clothes I used to wear."

"In the water, I look like a real swimmer wearing a full body suit or scuba suit - but modest," added Diana.

These ladies have a point: wearing a burkini means saying goodbye to silly swimming caps and cellulite problems. Who knows - Islamic swimwear could catch on in swimming pools from Barnsley to Brighton.

SO UNFAIR

I am hungover...and the only chocolate in the office is SNICKERS....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...I hate SNIKCERS!!!!!!

Never Again

Today I have experencied what my friends used to complain about. Going to work-8am-while one is still drunk.

I remember when I was unemployed and waking up at around 10ish and talking to friends who were already at work, and them telling me that they arrived at work with not a hangover but still drunk. And I never understood that...but today I finally did!

I was FORCED awake by my ride who had been waiting for me outside for 15 minutes already-I put my ipod as my alarm yet forgot to put the speakers on!!! Arrived at work, without taking a shower, still smelling of the last drink I had at Nai-vodka/orange juice-and having to write a report!!!! Not only that, bas I also am just starting to go into hangover mode...the headaches, craving for greasy food...wanting just to put my head on a pillow and not to talk/look/listen to anyone!!!

I am NEVER EVER EVER doing this again...drinking yeah ok I won't be giving that up any time soon-enjoy it to much-but not on a week day...khalas...I am unable to sleep till 10/11/12/ and so I have to stop!

The really annoying thing, is that I had decided not to go to Nai, yet I ended up going...why OH WHY...do I not listen to the voice within????

Catch-22

I have read, and am rereading Catch-22, by Joseph Heller. Anyway there is a line that I am trying to understand...will be walking around with a little paper with it written on it till i get it or am explained it..fa lets see if the blogging world can help:

Anything can be done to you that you can not prevent.

Good Luck

Like I needed a reason...

Chocolate addiction lead to sweet discovery

(Reuters) - They were so addicted, they just could not give up their favorite daily snack -- not even in the interest of science.
But chocolate lovers who flunked out of a Johns Hopkins University study on aspirin and heart disease helped researchers stumble on an explanation of why a little chocolate a day can cut the risk of heart attack.
It turns out chocolate, like aspirin, affects the platelets that cause blood to clot, Diane Becker of the Johns Hopkins University's School of Medicine and her colleagues discovered. "What these chocolate offenders taught us is that the chemical in cocoa beans has a biochemical effect similar to aspirin in reducing platelet clumping, which can be fatal if a clot forms and blocks a blood vessel, causing a heart attack," Becker said in a telephone interview.
The 139 so-called chocolate offenders took part in a larger study of 1,200 people with a family history of heart disease. The study looked at the effects of aspirin on blood platelets.
Before they got the aspirin, the volunteers were asked to stay on a strict regimen of exercise, refrain from smoking and avoid caffeinated drinks, wine, grapefruit juice and chocolate.
Chocolate and the other foods are known to affect platelets. "We knew they would offend," Becker said. "Some people said to us, 'I can do anything but I can't stay off my chocolate.'"
"If people said, 'I will try my very best,' we said, 'OK do your very best, but it is crucial that you don't eat chocolate for 24 to 48 hours before you come in for testing.'" Yet some people failed even this test of self-control.

GOING ALL THE WAY

"Nobody ate like a chocolate chip. If they were going to eat it, they ate some chocolate," Becker said. "It went all the way from a chocolate chip cookie to someone who ate a gallon of chocolate ice cream with chocolate chunks and two chocolate-chip cookies at one sitting." Becker cut them out of the aspirin study, but looked at their blood anyway. Researchers ran platelet samples from both groups through a mechanical blood vessel system designed to time how long it takes for the platelets to clump together in a hair-thin plastic tube. The blood of the chocolate eaters was slower to clot than the blood of the volunteers who resisted chocolate, Becker told a meeting of heart experts in Chicago.
In a urine test, the chocolate lovers had lower levels of a platelet waste product called thromboxane. "Does it help a little bit? Yes," Becker said. "But it does not have anywhere near the magnitude of the effects of a single baby aspirin a day."
Nonetheless, Becker's team wants to study the effects of eating chocolate on a "free-living" population of volunteers. They will measure how much chocolate people eat and then watch them for several years to see if chocolate-eaters have a different rate of heart attacks, stroke and heart operations. Other studies have suggested that dark chocolate contains more of the beneficial compounds linked with heart health, and experts note that the high sugar and fat content of most chocolate candy might cancel out some of the benefits.
