Prince William spends night in an alley!


WOW! Prince William, second in line for the throne, spent the night in an alley in London's cold and dangerous streets!

"I cannot, after one night, even begin to imagine what it must be like to sleep rough on London's streets night after night," William said Tuesday. "Poverty, mental illness, drug and alcohol dependency and family breakdown cause people to become and then stay homeless.

"I hope that by deepening my understanding of the issue, I can help do my bit to help the most vulnerable on our streets."



That's amazing!

It really is inspiring what he did. 7amdilla we don't have THAT big of a problem in Kuwait--but don't be fooled there are plenty of people living in horrible conditions in Kuwait that you can help today!

Donate clothes, bags, shoes, dishes or kitchen supplies, toys, food, money...get creative and try to help those less fortunate than you!

And remember to say 7amdilah for what you have and help those in need...

Wire Jewelry!

The other day I was wandering around cnn.com when I came across an interview with Hadassah Lau, a jewelry designer that uses wires for her pieces. I checked out her website and I fell in love with her stuff! I think she is very talented, and if you are looking for interesting one-of-a kind pieces of jewelry or an interesting gift for someone, I'd consider Hadasity Designs....Here are some pieces that I liked:







You can also purchase her pieces straight from her website....

Teddy in Bazaar Magazine!


Teddy B was interviewed in Bazaar! And I saw him on the list for Pecha Kucha night tomorrow!

my my my he's becoming quite the celebrity! GO TEDDY!

Pecha Kucha Night


PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public.

It has turned into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creatives worldwide. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of conversation ("chit chat"), it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds.
It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.


I'm going with L :)

p.s. this is last Pecha Kucha Night flyer--I couldn't find the one for this week. The event will be this Wednesday, November 11, 2009 at Movenpick Bida3 at 7:30 pm--see you there!

Here's their website link.

Skip the escalator-take the stairs!


As most of you know the UN is organizing a Climate Change Conference in 3 destinations (starting @ Thailand, then Spain, then ending in Copenhagen)....Here's a really neat commercial showing how they applied the "fun theory" to get people to use stairs instead of the escalator.

I really like this idea :) Watch the video!
