In an interesting twist, Google, the dominant search giant, whose name became synonymous with searching the Internet, aired an interesting commercial, for what I believe is the first time EVER! (I don't recall seeing any commercials for Google search on TV, there were a few for Android, and even Chrome, but not Search).

However, I have seen interesting (and controversial) commercials for Bing, Ask, Yahoo and a bunch of the now completely forgotten bunch. But never for Google Search, since it's usually the "losers" who try to get some time in front of the consumer eyes.

I might be reading too much into this but the way I see it, Google appears to be hurting, at it's top game... or is it?

If you frequent gyms in the US, you will undoubtedly start and end your routine with a visit to the all-male or all-female locker rooms.

I understand that people in the US and western Europe are generally more liberal with their bodies and nudity isn't an issue. However, it's really disturbing to see a man, completely naked. It just feels awkward!

Especially if you happen to know that person!

Today, we made Shawirma. AT HOME from scratch and it tasted EXACTLY like shawirma you buy from the eateries in Jordan or any other country. To tell you the truth, all the burgers in the world aren't worth a single bite of a good shawirma sandwich

It's a well known technique to tell you the truth. Had she engaged with someone who knew a little less about the history of the Atrocities and the genocide committed by the Israeli forces against unarmed civilians. She would have probably won!

I like how everyone loves to throw the word "Terrorist" like it meant nothing. When the very first bombings in Palestine were carried out by Jews against the British. They didn't consider that "terrorism"

And now they equate the Qassam fireworks, with the 2000 pound daisy cutter-bunker busters they've showered Palestinians with! How sad!

This is worst commercial and worst product EVER.

Despite the Apple's Nazi practices, despite the lack of replaceable battery, despite all the issues and shortcomings, the iphone succeeded brilliantly. It was sexy and so damn cool. So sexy that it appealed to many people who don't even care about 99% of the cool features. So sexy it appealed to demographic that feels intimidated by the mere mentions of the words "smart" and "Phone"

The iPhone was an awesome success.

The iPhone wasn't the first phone, smartphone or touch screen phone. But it taught everyone how to make a phone.

Now Apple decides to sail in extremely charted waters. The Tablet market!

Sorry in advance, not meant as an insult for anyone, no purchase necessary, void where illegal, must be 18 years or older to participate.

Everyone know how much I love Jordan, but just for fun, I decided to play devil's advocate this round. So bear with me

Life is stronger than death, even though both are facts of life. But a new life proved to be stronger than a recent death. That's what kept blinking in my mind as I saw the dramatic effect my daughter had on everyone who was devastated by the loss of my father in law.

She was their morphine, she calmed everyone down. Her aura just lit up the whole place. Just for being there!

اللهم اغفر له و ارحمه و اعفو عنه و أكرم نزله، ووسع مدخله و غسّله بالماء و الثلج و البرد. و نقّه من الذنوب، كما ينقّى الثوب الأبيض من الدنس. و ارحمه الى ما صار اليه، و جازه بالحسنات احسانا و بالسيّئات عفوا و غفرانا. و افتح له ابواب رحمتك يا ارحم الراحمين
اللهم آمين.اللهم آمين.اللهم آمين

This awesome idea sparked on Humaid's blog, and echoed by Nas on the Black-Iris. 

Thoughts and festive ideas are welcome of course.

I am telling you if I was in Jordan, that's where I will be taking my family to spend the new year's eve.

Here's my "Idea contribution": Get some fireworks, and organize a night to remember at the 1st Circle!

Suddenly you feel it was all worth it, and nothing else matters

Say hi to baby Mira

50 are available ... Let me know if you're interested

I guess since everyone is sharing... I might do so too...

The cave woman again, thinks that a stingy mate would end up making her and her offspring dye of hunger while he eats. Or that he will not share the spoils of hunting (meat=rich in protein, essential for baby making, and more important than the vegetables that she can gather). So a miserly mate is one that is unattractive. It has been the case since the dawn of humanity.

Once again, I apologize for the ladies who find this analogy offensive. But please understand that I don't equate the modern woman to a cave woman. I'm simply drawing an analogy of the origin of hatred to a specific human property.
