SHATOOSH & PASHMINA

I received the following recommendation by email from a blog reader, thank you.

Exclusive "SHATOOSH & PASHMINA" scarves hand made with hand embroidery, straight from Kashmir! Unimaginable prices! Call 9832103

I personally called the guy and bought FIVE scarves (1 for my husband)! The price range is 250 KD ~ 4000 KD... They're all worth the price!! He's much cheaper than what's being sold here! One more thing, they are 100% authentic, and the good thing about him is that he comes right to your place! I hope your readers will enjoy the beautiful shawls :)

Thank you,

F.S.G

Why Crying is Good for You

The Benefits of Tears (Link)

Most people feel better after a good cry. (At least most women do.) After shedding tears, there is generally a feeling of relief and renewed strength to face difficult situations. But new evidence suggests that there may be more to crying than just expressing feelings. Scientific research has found that tears produced by emotional crying, may be one of the ways that the body disposes of toxic substances. (Read more)

Kuwaitize Saud Port and Saudize Al Khafji Port

Read this article. Its in Arabic, though it is talking about some mutual trades in lands between Kuwait and Saudi when those lands belong to Kuwaiti!!!!!

It goes...

The possibility of Saudi Arabia giving “the Port of King Saud” to the Kuwaitis for that the geographical distance of the port is within Kuwaiti borders (considering the sovereign depth that Kuwait falls within), while Kuwait will give “Al-Khafji” port to the Saudis, which is an oil rich port! The discussions will raise to borderline that litigant area.

The “Port of King Saud” is notorious for raising question marks between the two countries (Kuwait and Saudi) especially that it was taking this classical move since 30+ years.

After liberating Garooh Island of Kuwait in 1991, the Saudi Arabian Navy raised their Saudi flag on the island (the first Kuwaiti land to be liberated), and this issue went into some political and disputable issues and that file was shut quietly to keep a good relation between the two countries.

The question is.. How much longer do we have to keep quiet and shut such issues quietly before our flag is replaced???
