546) Lights Off ... Lives On !!

Earth Hour will next take place on TODAY March 28, 2009 at 8:30 pm, local time. I am participating and will ask my evening class to have the lights off.

2,398 cities, towns and municipalities in 83 countries have already committed to VOTE EARTH for Earth Hour 2009, as part of the worlds first global election between Earth and global warming. 

I urge all my blog followers and readers to turn off the lights tonight from 8:30pm to 9:30pm their local time.

SHARE IN MAKING A DIFFERENCE!

Earth Hour is an annual international event created by the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife Fund), held on the last Saturday of March, that asks households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change. It was pioneered by WWF Australia and the Sydney Morning Herald in 2007,and achieved worldwide participation in 2008.

474) Maaaaaaaaaaa !!

I started getting tired from fasting in summer. Water is really a HUGE issue for me. I cant imagine next year when it is in the Cruel August. 

I generally hate the summer (except for the long daytime), and today is the LAST day in the summer :)))

373) M.o.h.@.l.y.i.c.s Weekly! (Eps. 5)

American Elections: I think that if Clinton and Obama didn't team up at this stage as President-Vice, there will be a great possibility for another republican idiot to become the president and keep the Bush ideology running.

Sawiris: As I said here 1 year ago, this man knows how to succeed.. he is the 60th richest man on earth now with a 70,000,000,000 LE fortune (ma-shaa-Allah) and steadily heading to top 20!

Weather: I really became confused about the weather in Egypt, one day it is raining and 6 degrees, the other day it is hot like hell and 36 degrees in shadow! i.e. 7ar geddan sayfan, 7ar we bard ma baed shetaa2an!! El wa7ed maba2ash 3aref yelbesh eih!

358) The "Cold War"!!

What kind of country where 22 people dies, 22 injured, 2 houses collapsed, other burnt, numerous accidents, ... etc. in JUST TWO DAYS of cold (degree still above zero)!! I guess this is our own version of the "Cold War"!

251) The Closed Loop!

Back from Qatar at last...

Guys, if you think Cairo is hot in summer, be my guest and try Qatar!!

Midnight and you still cant open the window....i stayed the WHOLE week in the room!!! Even if I went out there is nothing to do except 3 malls without extra-ordinary outlets or landmarks...

As my friends living there say it is all about the money... "In Qatar, El Felous zayy el Matar"...
Imagine the fresh Qatari graduate takes at least 7 times the fresh (AUC) graduate in Egypt!

Anyway when I met my friends who are living there, there was always this discussion about should we stay in Egypt and develop it or should we leave till it is better, and if we left how will it be better without the good people who left...it is a closed loop that needs to be broken!!
