The Revolution of Yemen

2008-02-08T00:44:00.000+01:00

The Brightness never come with out Darkness ..

Yemen is one of the countries had a big revolution in the History because Yemen used to be one of the British colonise, Gained city of Aden its historical significance in the period prior to the emergence of modern European colonization .. They represent a basket of food right where the main commercial port of Yemen, which is two-thirds of revenues to the state coffers - especially - and obviates the natural fortifications of the dangers aspirants from the kingdoms and sultans, making it one of the most commercial stations safer world, and encouraged access and association with traders Yemeni different interests.

In the pic up ther the king of great Britain king whales in Aden and if you look all the way up in the pic you can see the British flag, Characterized by the British from other colonial powers that they know how to "art" occupation, and they are already others to gain experience in the battles of this type, exposure and deceptive war on the territory of Europe before they show it the entire world.British trip started competing to occupy Aden inter professional trade links with Yemen through navigation company. They aim of this step to achieve two things: first - exploring the region closely, and the establishment of customer and spies - and perhaps some friendships that might also serve in the coming stages. The second thing - it attempted bombing differences on the quality of their interests and conventions with the Yemenis, and then developed to become a justification for military intervention transport them directly to the heart of Aden.

Commander (Hynes) ordered his troops to kill all of those who resist or oppose or causes concern to them or suspected transport. Recruited widespread killings and torture people who did not prevent them from continuing the resistance and turn the resistance were not able to prevent the occupation forces from the period of British influence and the extension of its control over all parts of Aden, and the credit for this modern weapons used by the British, and the enormous potential of the material and then to the large manpower developed later, in addition to the embargo imposed on economic activities that were exercised by the population of Aden, which made them in a very severe strain.

In the pic up there it show women who couldn't sleep from the darkness of the British, Aden did not live day in the middle of the night mystified vision also precluded discrimination, which was heard feet of a colonizer in the Ward of Yemen this and may catch on and that the freedom of others .. Aden determination has been struggling to recover their dignity on the foreign raped her. If calmed days it is not more than that lick surgery, and re-join the ranks of sons and think with him tomorrow will be to break the thorn occupation and clearing land from the darkness of the occupation.

The threats to domestic tourism in Yemen

2008-01-13T05:16:00.000+01:00

Tourism in Yemen is hurt by the country’s dependence on qat and by the lack of public facilities along the country’s roads, a new study has found. People spend too much time chewing qat and not enough time working, which hurts the country in myriad ways, said the study. The first economic study of its kind in Yemen also found that Yemenis waste 20 million work hours each day chewing qat. It found that qat, frequently chewed by almost all Yemenis, threatens the development of tourism in Yemen because it takes away from time Yemenis could be creating tourism opportunities.

The study, conducted by the Yemeni Consultative House Foundation, focused on domestic tourism in Yemen. The study showed the obstacles of developing such tourism in Yemen, pointing out qat and the absence of public facilities along the long roads, such as tourist restaurants and public bathrooms. Other important obstacles preventing the development of the Yemeni domestic tourism include a weak awareness of the importance of tourism, low income, and the absence of good services offered in the tourist locations. The results of the study were presented at a panel discussion organized by the Ministry of Tourism and the Yemeni Tourist Promotion Council.

About 54 percent of the people who participated in this study confirmed that qat has a significant influence as one of the major barriers preventing the development of domestic tourism. Some 24 percent of them thought that qat negatively affects the domestic tourism to some extent, while only 22 percent denied the relationship between qat and tourism. The study included the opinions of 580 people, from various social, cultural, political, and age groups. It also found that 61 percent of those people thought that the lack of public facilities along the long roads has a significant impact of on domestic tourism, while 11 percent of them denied the idea. About 68 percent of people who participated in the study confirmed the existence of a strong relationship between the people’s weak awareness and tourism.

Some 8 percent of people are still not convinced of the disadvantages caused by the people’s weak awareness of the importance of tourism. The impact of people’s low income on the tourism was agreed upon by a large number of people, about 76 percent. They thought that this is one of the most important things negatively affecting the development of domestic tourism. Another 17 percent thought that the low income affects the tourism to some extent while 7 percent denied such relationship. Qat is a stimulating drug that comes from a leafy green plant. It is used in some third world countries, such as some areas in east Africa, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan and Yemen. It is also found in Israel, Britain, and the United States. The qat tree is grown in most areas of Yemen, and is given several names linked to the land where it is planted, such as al-Sauti, al-Ansi, al-Baladi, and others.

Cultivation of qat is often done at the expense of planting food crops such as coffee and grapes. Qat contains organic compounds, mainly cathine, a substance that has a negative impact on the nervous system. Cathine stimulates nerve cells, thus reducing the feeling of fatigue, and increasing the ability to concentrate in the early hours of taking qat. The qat chewer is prone to many negative effects especially on the body. The phenomenon of chewing qat is spreading among Yemenis. Some studies estimated the rate of money spent for buying qat by Yemenis ranged between YR 1.5 to 2.5 billion per day, $ 7.5 to 12.5 million per day. The studies also estimated the hours spent by Yemenis in chewing qat at about 20 million hours per day. About 85 percent of the total number of male Yemenis was found chewing qat while about 35 percent of females were also found chewing qat.

This is a fact if we ignore it we will lose our income like a country and we will effect our life to the worst, hand by hand to make Yemen have better future.

WooooW..... Christmas time , what a big thing in the U.S. , all the people they were preparing for this event like the biggest event happening during the whole year .....the problem is if you have kids because its seriously hard that if you don't own that much money in your budget you gonna get stock with them , but the good part that you can get what do you want just if you ask Santa" the parents " , actually i like it so much because first all my family they came over to stay with us in the house and i had a pretty cool time , I got a lot of staff and i was so excited to have it . the point of view that i want to explain it for every body thought that the Arabic countries they don't celebrate Christmas, So that's mean the other countries they don't have any important events at all , I want every body to realise that every nation in the world, every culture in world have their own event's and holiday's and it might be more important for them than the Christmas.

( it's not right and it's not wrong it just different) in the end i had of fun and this Christmas was the fifth Christmas i celebrated in my life .

African childrens concert

2007-12-18T02:46:00.000+01:00

This concert it's one of the best concert i ever seen in my life, it was a cool concert and i am so glad that my high school (Medical Lake high school) give them the chance to do it in our school .

those kids most of them they lost their parents by disease or AIDS, and i want you to know they are just between 7-10 years old, they get this chance to make the peace in the world and travel around a lot of places, after the concert they leave the people donate for them and help them and also such a nice thing that they made a chance for the people who want to host one of the kids .

In the beging of the concert they had a small preview for the kids who get the chance to join this choir in the past (1981) they are leader now in their home country.

I like it so badly and I also enjoy it to watch a kids dacing and singing in a fabulous way .

you can also get a good idea about the by visiting their website : www.africanchildrenschoir.com

the life always change

2007-11-24T04:36:00.000+01:00

I am only 16 life it's hard , I believe that the life always change , but there only two ways to change for the better or for the worst ..
The only way to make it better that you should write your goals down and match it with your dream and don't look to the back or to your problem because if you do you will never ever improve your self .
Keep your believe to your self share it some times with the others but keep your own for ever and don't be influence easily ... help the people it's one of the beutifull thing , smile a lot , don't let the others know your sad , solve your problem carefully and talk with the right people , The people who will help you for real , the people who like to take care of you , don't say there is no body like me because if you treat the people good and you leave the life the is some people you will change their life ..
