Road Construction near GUST

I have just passed by GUST and ACK's street, it turned out that half of the road is under construction. As I've heard, they are making a new roundabout. They also added a couple of new speed bumps so watch out. 

Review: Night at the museum 2

The movie wasn’t as I expected it to be at all. It didn’t have much comedy scenes and most of them were unfunny. The first part was way better than the 2nd part. I have no idea why it’s #1 in the box office right now.

Movie plot:

“ Ben Stiller returns to the role of night watchman Larry Daly in this sequel to the 2006 family film NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM. This adventure takes the action to Washington D.C, where things at the Smithsonian aren't quite as quiet as one might think...”

I rate it 2/10

Eco + Muscle

Since hybrid cars are the future of a better and healthy environment, Most of today's compact hybrids use a small electric motor sacrficing performance and driving fun. Imagine using two parallel powertrains, gas and electric, that way it can offer a muscular V8 performance that buyers want, yet still produce zero emissions around town !

The Truth about Michael Jackson's Skin Color



Most people think that Michael Jackson changed his skin color from black to white to make more people love him. In this video you'll know why and how he changed his color.

What is Vitiligo ?
Vitiligo (vit-ill-EYE-go) is a pigmentation disorder in which melanocytes (the cells that make pigment) in the skin are destroyed. As a result, milky white patches (depigmentation) appear on the skin in different parts of the body.

New Police Cars Equipped with Smart Cameras

This is from Some Contrast :

     "These new police cars are going to be equipped with special kinds of cameras, those cameras can detect the license plate’s numbers and run them on the police system/database, and just like that the police will know whether you should be stopped and get a ticket (for example if your insurance/license had expired) or be arrested for having a major violation; a stolen car for example. It also detects your speed and deliver an instant speeding ticket. The camera can detect up to 50 license plates per second, of cars going on up to 200 KMPH."

New cars, new cameras for the road and now cameras on the cars ! .. 

Bubbles at Discovery


If any of your little brother/sister or child likes Barney, Dora the explorer or Spiderman and his/her birthday are coming up soon, well it's a really great idea to check out the store Bubbles at discovery.
What they do is make a small video of Barney, Dora or spiderman, put the child inside the video and sing for him/her a happy birthday, added by a few songs. I was amazed when barney said my nephew's name in the video.

It's a great and unique idea for the kids which I'm sure they will love.

FC Barcelona vs Manchester United

The greatest final of all Champions Leagues will be on 27-5-2009, at 09:45pm. Why it's the greatest final ?
Because these are the top two teams of this year, both of them are taking the lead in their local league and they have two of the best players in the world ( Messi - Ronaldo ).

It's a game you don't want to miss.

I remember laughing so hard when I saw this show back in 2002

Terminator Salvation

We will be the first to watch this incredible movie here in Kuwait. Terminator Salvation will be released today at 11pm for public, but our university managed to reserve 350 seats free for their students and the show will be at 07:30pm at the Avenues which is before the public release.

Wait for our rate, and I think it won't be less than 9/10.

Update : It wasn't what I thought it would be. My rate is 6.8/10 not even close to 9, but what really amused me is the graphic and camera movement.

Cinescape's Warning

Me and Mohammed recently went to the movie Angel's and Demons. Before the movie started there was a new kind of warning. They talked about copyrights which I have never seen before here in Kuwait. I quickly managed to take a picture even though they specifically said not to use any camera :x

This is what they had to say:

" It is a criminal offence to copy or attempt to copy any film, 
or film related article, shown or displayed in this cinema.

Punishment on conviction is by long term imprisonment and very heavy fine.
You are not permitted to use any camera or recording equipment in this cinema.
This will be treated as an attempt to breach copyright.

Any person doing so can be ejected and such articles may be confiscated by the police.
We ask the audience to be vigilant against any such activity and report any matters arousing suspicion to cinema staff. " 

They can start by removing the copied film's in Hawally, That would be a good start!

Knowing

Movies are getting better every year, and this is one of the most amazing movies for this year 2009, it's called "Knowing". To watch the trailer click here.

Story line :

Fast forward 50 years to the present: A new generation of students examines the contents of the time capsule and the girl's cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Myles. But it is Caleb's father, professor Ted Myles (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As Ted further unravels the document's secrets, he realizes it foretells three additional events-the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve Ted and his son.

Chicken Gourmet from Mcdonalds

I tried today the new sandwich from Mcdonalds. The special thing Chicken Gourmet had that the other sandwiches didn't was the new kind of bread and the deluxe sauce. I liked the deluxe sauce and the bread too. Overall, it was a really delicious sandwich although the sandwich was kind of small.

Chicken Gourmet costed me .850 fils
I recommend you to try it out.

Discovery Grand Opening


My sister recently went with her kids to the grand opening of Discover, it's located near the skating rink. Discover is a place to find various kids stores and games.
From what I've heard from my sister, the design is really bad and doesn't look like a place for kids.
It doesn't have much restaurants where the only restaurants they have is Nathan's, KFC and Chili's Too but it's probably because the place is new so we'll just have to wait and see.
There's also a gym for kids but it hasn't opened yet, I don't know what kids want to do in a gym, Lift weights?

I like the Goal! game, and the pitch seems really good too.

I think the idea is good so we'll just have to wait for the coming soon stores and see what else they will offer for our kids :)

Thanks EKR
