  Emirates A380

   » ‎ Z District
  It seems Emirates Airlines have already gotten their hands on their A380, I wonder which city they will be flying to with this behemoth. The pictures they have sent out are pretty funny, and the first class cabin seems comfortbale but why is everyone sitting sideways in it? Business class seems really interesting. I can’t [...]

  Louis Vuitton’s Le Majestueux

   » ‎ Kuwait-Style.com

  

  I visited Louis Vuitton last Thursday on my hunt for a red bag. Instead I fell in love with their Le Majestueux city tote in Verone (above on the left). I’m a fan of Suhali leather and the color’s elegant and understated, when you compare the Verone color to the Black. I don’t like the harsh contrast of the black version, it makes the gold brass look too brassy.

  Currently Louis Vuitton only has the Majestic in Black but the Verone and White versions are due to arrive in store by next week. It’s KD760.

  I also love it in white (below)! Do I go ahead and buy it or do I hold out for a red handbag?

  

  Louis Vuitton is located in Salhiya Complex, telephone 2404982.

  Question of the Day: Why does Kuwait's Ministry of Higher Education sponsor students in acquiring degrees that hold no current value in Kuwait?

   » ‎ Erzulie: Seeing Red

  To this day, I have met many young, bright individuals who have graduated with honors from distinguished universities in the US, UK and other countries abroad with majors such as biomedical science/engineering, interior design, environmental biology, culinary arts, health physics and other technical as well as very untraditional yet gloriously interesting fields that these Kuwaiti men and women have excelled in.

  Some students are continuing their studies and are presently acquiring their Masters and PhDs to legitimize themselves as professionals in their field and people in society. Others were fortunate enough to dip their fingers in their family's cookie jar and start their own business based on their unconventional yet much adored major. However, many return to Kuwait and either opt for a low paying government job that is similar to their major or, like many educated individuals here, snag a job at an investment company or bank and call it a life well lived.

  "Whatever your major was in college, in Kuwait, it's just business, business and more business," a good female friend of mine told me the other day. At 24 years of age, my friend holds a BA in Marketing and is six months away from earning her MBA from a country in the MENA region.

  I have observed many young and quite disgruntled Kuwaitis drive back and forth from mundane, unsatisfying jobs. "I go to work, put in my hours, and then I'm off to do the things I like," another friend and a passionate engineer said to me recently, "I like building things and creating stuff. The projects that I accomplish in the evening are my challenge, not my morning job."

  It's sickening how much untapped talent we have here in Kuwait. It's sickening how some Kuwaitis are hopping on a plane to the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al-Maktoum Foundation in the United Arab Emirates for their big break instead of having access to a government-owned fund here in Kuwait to further their dreams.

  What shame.

  من المتهم ؟ -1

   » ‎ طاخ طيخ
  .أعتقد أن هذا السؤال هو الاكثر ترددا في الأيام السابقة , من المسؤول عن الجرف القاري الذي أصاب البورصة ؟
  
  هل هو مدير البورصة صالح الفلاح ؟ أم بدر السعد العضو المنتدب لهيئة الاستثمار ؟ أو أنها محاولة استعراض عضلات جديدة لناصر الخرافي ؟
  
  أعتقد أن الاجابة على هذا السؤال تكمن في فهم دور كل من المتهمين عن هذه الجريمة , و قبل أن نفهم دور كل المتهمين علينا أن نبدأ بالتحقيق و البحث عنهم , و من ثم حصرهم , و هذا ما قمت به بالنيابة عنكم توفيرا للوقت و الجهد
  
  بالنسبة لي فإن سلسلة المتهمين تشمل الآتية أسماؤهم
  
  المتهم صالح الفلاح , مدير سوق الكويت للأوراق المالية
  
  المتهم بدر السعد , العضو المنتدب للهيئة العامة للاستثمار
  
  المتهم مصطفى الشمالي , وزير المالية
  
  المتهم سالم عبدالعزيز الصباح , محافظ البنك المركزي
  
  المتهم مدراء البنوك , يمثلهم عبدالمجيد الشطي مدير البنك التجاري
  
  المتهم مدراء الشركات الاستثمارية , تمثلهم مها خالد الغنيم
  
  المتهم هوامير البورصة , يمثلهم الشاموه ناصر الخرافي
  
  المتهم مجلس الأمة , يمثلهم البطل الدكتور ضيف الله بو رمية
  
  المتهم أسواق العالم , يمثلهم مؤشر الداو جونز الأمريكي
  
  المتهم صغار المستثمرين , يمثلهم بو زولية

  iPhone App: Camera Bag

   » ‎ Jacqui

  I love this application, I love it so much that I actually purchased it for 2.99$.

  

  It’s basically a photography tool in which you take a picture with it and add an effect to it from a few different cameras.  The effects available are:

  • Helga
  • 1974
  • Cinema
  • Lolo
  • 1962

  It’s just simply lovely, although it could be a bit faster it’s a great app to have on your iPhone and fun too.  Check out some of the pics I took with it today on the beach or better yet check one the different effects I put on one pic.

  Last year, I interviewed F2O Designs creator, Fatima Al-Othman. She’s a talented designer who customizes t-shirts, polo shirts and sweaters with her unique artwork. I love her new website! It’s more user-friendly and there are lot of great new designs up. You can see them in the gallery. My favorite pick was the Mood t-shirt. What’s yours?

  Food: Napket

   » ‎ Frankom

  أصعب الاشياء التي قد تواجهها عن دخولك لاي مجمع به مطاعم كثيرة خاصة عند وجبة الغداء أو حتى عند الجوع هو التفكير والسؤال .. أين سأتناول ألذ وجبة ؟ وفي المقابل قد تتوجه الى مطعم تعتقد أنك ستلتهم الاخضر واليابس ولكن تنصدم بما سيقدمه لك هذا المطعم

  نابكيت وهو أحدث مطعم وكافيه في مجمع الافنيوز والذي تم افتتاحه مؤخرا كانت لنا زيارة سريعة له أمس .. النرحلة الثانية من مجمع الافنيوز لاتزال غير مشهورة مقارنة بالمقاهي والمطاعم على الجهو الاخرى من المرحلة الاولى ! هل السبب يعود الى وجود السينما ؟ أو شهرة تلك المطاعم ؟ أم أن الناس قد تعودوا على زيارة المرحلة الاولى وتناسوا المرحلة الثانية

  

  نعود الى نابكيت الذي كان مهجورا نوعا ما .. تقريبا طاولتين فقط او ثلاث من اصل الطاولات الكثيرة المنتشرة هناك ! طريقة الطلب لمن لايعرفون هذا المطعم .. هي التوجه الى مكان تحضير الطعام والذي يتكون من الساندويتشات والحلويات .. ومن ثم الباستا وهناك طبعا العصائر

  من بين جميع الساندويتشات طلبت (اوول انكلوسيف) وهي عبارة عن ساندويش لحم السلامي ومايونيز وجبن وماسترد ، وهناك طبق آخر هو الباستا

  

  لاشيء يعيب هذا المطعم سوى الاسعار المبالغ بها .. الاكل جيد وبامكاني الحصول على مثل هذه الاطباق من مطعم سباروا على سبيل المثال ! او حتى من صب واي أو أي مكان آخر يقدم نفس القائمة ! جودة الاكل ليست بالممتازة انها عادية وقد أتناول منه مرة أخرى

  ولكن وكما قلت في بداية الامر اذا كنت في قمة الجوع .. فلا تتوجهوا الى نابكيت .. انه أقرب الى وجبات خفيفة قد تتناولون تلك الوجبات بين الوجبات الاساسية وهي الغداء والعشاء
