LETTER

12

Dear Students, I have often wondered about energies and how they affect us, and more so this summer than ever before. As I ventured into choosing an island known for its nightlife on which to spend my very short summer vacation, I was set on not changing my routine and was looking forward to only enjoying what the island has to offer in natural beauty and heritage. However, once there, I was immediately swept into the wave of heightened energy. Without knowing how, my body needed less sleep and my whole mood and state of mind was of complete freedom and nonchalance. And I wondered… What was causing that sudden burst of extra energy? Was it the fact that my body was being exposed to 14 hours of sunlight? Or was it the energy of the masses bubbling from all corners of the island? Whatever it may have been, my personal belief has always been that we are all connected and our lives intertwined. The majority’s mood will always overcome and overpower the individual’s state of mind. With my renewed energy, I wish you all to be catalysts of positivity. On this note, may I remind you to keep following the Al-Nowair initiative. May their reach spread more and more, Till next issue,

Zeina Mokaddam

I think it is more progressive if people concentrate on themselves, work and family because all three are related in some way. Also a country is people’s home so she/he needs to have the things that can make them relaxed.

Politics has a huge effect on a country’s development. Focusing on political issues will protect any country from revolution troubles with the citizens. As soon as democracy, freedom of speech and thought is there, a country will be much safer.

STUDENT LIFE INTERVIEW حياة الطلبة حوار

20 21

At a very young age, Sara Al Raji, a Senior at the American University of Kuwait, started her volunteer work during her High School years in Canada. She brought all the skills she gained through her participation in at other countries such as, Lebanon and Egypt, to help special needs children in the Kuwaiti Community.

Aiding the Kuwaiti society in a new dimension, Asmaa Esmael is the Supervisor of Media Committe in the One, a non-profit volunteer group. Its latest campaign is spreading awareness about animal rights by holding an event in 360 Mall this September. On behalf of the members in the One group, she explained how they wish to educate and take a stand against the abuse of animals in Kuwait.

They taught me patience and respect, while I only taught

them the A, B, C’s.

I embarked on my volunteer journey as a High School student in Canada. I was well-involved with giving back to the elderly community. There is a certain appeal to working with the geriatrics because you learn respectful humility that you would not necessarily pick up working with children. In addition, I participated with LOYAC, a non-profit organization, that taught me how to cooperate with special needs.

From my past experience, I have come to believe that volunteering builds good character and reminds one of how fortunate they are. For example, I was an admittedly ungrateful child. On a family trip to Lebanon, my mother took me to an orphanage where I saw children who were highly grateful for the socks and hats that we passed out to them. In general, volunteering trains a person on how to behave in certain situations as well as prepares a person for non-traditional interactions. Volunteering also caused a spiritual awakening in me and not a day passes by in which I do not thank God for my fortunate stature in life. They taught me patience and respect, while I only taught them the A, B, C’s.

When I joined university, I wanted to take volunteer work to another level. I was a member at a new club, The Hope Club, that was founded by an AUK student Mohammed Abu-Mazen that provided charitable activities to orphans and special needs children. We created activities at the Al Razi Hospital and NBK Hospital for the children. After my participation, I was elected by the club members to be the president of the Hope Club.

Unfortunately, after working with special needs, I saw some families who were ashamed of having special needs children, when they should not since it’s a normal situation . I learned from my past experiences in Alexandra, Egypt, that it is possible to create a co-existing environment with the special need. However, more people over time are becoming more aware on how to work with special needs and I have seen that at AUK.

Volunteering aside, as a member of the Student Government Association, we made a debate during the parliament voting period. AUK Students showed outstanding debate etiquette while discussing some political issues. Successfully, it was a very mature discussion.

In the end, I would love to encourage everyone to take part in volunteer work. Give to the world even if you do not feel you have gotten anything in return.

Volunteer work imprinted inStudent’s life

SARAH AL-RAJIAUK student volunteering inside and outside of Kuwait

Active students contributing to theKuwaiti society

ASMAA ESMAEL Promotes Animal Rights in Kuwait as a member of the One group

The reason the group is called the One is because they embrace their members not only by these activities that build their character positively.In addition to that, it engages their spare time with entertaining activities that aim to create a strong bond by everyone of the group. Therefore, from that comes the concept of being “One”, not only counting each other as members or friends but also as a “One” family.

Direct the petition to the National Council and emphasize it by

highlighting crimes happening in Kuwait

As a student who is eager to help the Kuwaiti society, Esmael and the One group members have observed several distressing actions against animal. The main form of animal abuse in Kuwait is torturing animals in a very inhumane way by people or kids for the sake of enjoyment. If you go to Kuwait Friday Market, you will find appalling treatment of animals that die of hunger and thirst from being neglected in the sun without food. Also dog fights, that starts by gambling on the winning dog for money in a range to fight till death. Furthermore, importing wild animals that are not domestic. It is not only dangerous for animals but it puts the owner at risk due to any sudden attack from the imported wild animals. Not to mention that most of the animals die from living in a different environment. In solidarity against the shooting of stray dogs of Kuwait and other forms of animal abuse, the One group will take a stand in 360 Mall on September 19, 20, and 21 to collect signatures and comments to enforce a law that prosecutes animal offenders and give them psychiatric treatment. After that, they will direct the petition to the National Council and emphasize it by highlighting the crimes happening in Kuwait. The One group is encouraging all youths in Kuwait to take a stand against animal abuse. You can do so by simply visiting the stand in 360 Mall on September 19, 20 and 21 give your voice by signing the petition. If you wish to go further than just standing against animal abuse by joining the One group, feel free to fill the application on their website on www.onekuwait.org or call them on 69998306. They are updating the campaign movement follow them on instagram @onekuwait_.

Ever since I can remember I loved art. When I was younger, I remember I used to get into troubles several times after scribbling on the walls of my bedroom. My paintings are inspired by nature and people. I am not just “another flower painter” I do love painting flowers, because they are so innocent and smooth, but I try to balance out my painting by adding different objects or colors. Other than that, I love painting in monochromatic colors as well. Most of my portraits are chromatic. Painting is very sacred to me. Every time I get a new canvas I fall in love with it,the shape, and the material. I spend the whole day dreaming of the final outcome! I literally get butterflies in my tummy.

Do you consider the majority in Kuwait to be a hard working group of people? How do you see your generation developing as the work force of the future?

We give the students of Kuwait a platform from which to express their beliefs on the matters that affect them. Here, students receive the opportunity to voice their opinions, whilst allowing others to hear them out.

WITHIN THIS

SECTION

Joseph El-Neaman, 19 AUKUndeclaredI honestly believe that every country has their own set of hard working and non-hardworking individuals. We can’t determine a majority because under what definition is hardworking? In studies?At home? Taking care of the family? In hobbies or work?

Mariam Al-Hunayan, 19AUMIndustrial EngineeringIt depends on how the person was raised. There is a high percentage of lazy individuals, but there are a lot of dedicated individuals. My generation is hardworking; I witness a lot of creativity as well as intelligence and persistence.

Helene El-Neaman, 21 AUKGraphic DesignMy answer would be yes. But are they hard working on what they should be hard working in? No. Prioritizing is the key – There is no use in being hard working if you are not focusing on something more beneficial to you or your community.

Marie Georges, 23AUKInternational RelationsIn general, I don’t think it’s fair to generalize Kuwaitis whether they are hard working or not. It really depends on the individual and the definition of “hard working.” Does it mean studying hard? Doing what you’re best at? It really depends.

Hissa Al-Enezi, 22AUKInternational RelationsSome do hard work but not all. Most Kuwaitis slack off and are not loyal with their responsibilities because they are not motivated to work hard or don’t work with honesty. My future generation will probably have more hope to build Kuwait better.

Maisoun Abd-Alkader,18AUK,UndeclaredThe majority of Kuwait are pretty hard workers comparing to others who aren’t that much. This generation are hard workers and successful.

Alia Mustafa ArefEnglish MajorIn reference to Kuwaiti people and students: No, simply because of the way they are brought up. Many people think they don’t need to do the work and that their name makes them entitled for work, awards and yes, grades.

Shamayel Al-Methen, 18 AUKBusiness ManagementNo actually, I don’t think that the majority in Kuwait are hard workers, however, there are individuals that are hard workers and successful by their own self.

Bibi Al-Ghanim, 18AUKMediaIn my opnion, there are two sides of people, half of them are hardworking and the other half aren’t.

Farah Homaidan, 17, AUKBusinessNo hardworkers! Everyone is lazy to do their own work.

THIS MONTHWE ASKEd:

Omar Al-Faresi, 23AUKCommunication I think the majority of the Kuwaiti work force are quite laid back. Doing just enough to not get fired and not hard enough to get noticed.

Idil Tahir, 20AUKSocial Behavior ScienceThe People who study hard seem to work hard; theoretically, I see the educated people of Kuwait as a workforce to be reckoned with.

Nadia Al-Seemali, 22, AUKCommunicationI do not. I believe my generation abuses shortcuts and “wasta”. I see them as a poor future workforce.

Mubarak Al-Mishwit, 18 AUKManagement “Shabab” you are all lazy. We are more aware of the problem but we are not solving it.

Yusra El Militi, 17AUKBusinessThe number of hard working people in Kuwait is decreasing.

Mennatalla Marwan, 18, AUKBusiness & MarketingIn my opinion the new generation is working harder than the previous one.

Sundes Al-Blushi, 23AUKGraphic DesignNo. Yes and no… My generation is ambitious and somewhat lacking in a unified goal. However, I think as a whole they can be an inevitable work force to making Kuwait a more developed and stable nation.

Natasha, 19AUKMedia and CommunicationNo, I don’t. There might be a slight development but majority are sadly quite lazy.

Abdul-Hadi Al-Jeri, 20AUKAccountingYes, many of our new, young and bright workers are focused on making a better Kuwait for the future generation. It is developing pretty well and I think the future would be brighter indeed.

Alaa Abdul, 17AUKMarketingPeople are getting lazier and depending too much on “wasta” they’re not doing anything themselves.

Mohamed Ameen, 18AUKEconomicsNot really, everyone is lazy and expect the money to come to their door. Everyone is growing towards laziness so our generation is going to face problems.

Joel Fernandez, 25AUKFinanceToo much focus on getting expats deported. There are bigger problems in this country. But the new generation is capable of making big strides for the positive progress of Kuwait.

Dalal Kakouli, 21AUKAccounting No, this upcoming generation very much lacks skills, integrity and the education needed for the workforce which is mostly depending on “wasta” these days.

Camera Shy

Mojd Mokdessi, 19AUKComputer Engineering No, they will do nothing and get low paid labor workers to do the job of the next generation just to get money.

Camera Shy

George, 18AUKBusinessNo, not at all, people are hardworkers as some are taking university life as a joke.

Fouziah Tebe, 19AUKSocial Behavioral ScienceNo, it’s not developing as we expected. We always rely on something else or someone.

Sara Al Saraf No I dont, the majority of people are depending on “Wasta” to earn what they want and unfortunately, we see it being used highly in Kuwaiti Culture which de-motivates hardworking people from accomplishing honest work regarding to the unfairness.

Abdu-lMajid El-Kassem, 19 AUKCommunicationsTo be honest, our generation is lazier than our older generations and that’s a shame.

Walaa Moussa, 19AUKMarketingOf course not. With the existence of “Wasta” people are getting lazier.

Karan Sharma, 20AUKComputer ScienceI don’t think they are hardworking people, and as for now, our future is looking very dull!

Dana Abdul-Alim, 18AUKFinanceNo, Not harder working. We all depend on technology.

Fahad Al-Borno, 22GUSTAccounting Unfortunately, I see the majority of people as a playful group rather than hard working and this generation is morally broken through media which leads to the same results.

Samad Bajenka, 23GUSTMarketingThese days the competition in work places is huge and to prove yourself you need to work as hard as you can to earn your position so yes I agree that our generation is hard working and future will show the results

Zainab Wasfy, 17AUKEnglish No, they are absolutely not hard working. I do believe that my generation will develop with greatness and achieve what others couldn’t.

Camera ShySarah Zaeed, 17AUKEnglishThey are hard working; I have personally observed how the majority give so much to the world. My generation shall be way better, and they have more potential.

Camera Shy

Joshita Bhasin, 21AUKgraphic Design Nope, not at all. Especially the Kuwaitis. Our next generation is looking pretty strong.

Camera ShyHussain Al-Obaid, 23AUMElectrical EngineeringI think the majority in Kuwait are not hard working, and if no real change happens soon I truly believe our current generation won’t develop much, not in the needed rate anyway.

Camera Shy

Shayal, 23GUSTCommunicationNo, because the majority are not well educated and have a really bad social life due to a lack of communication skills.

Samah Hamila, 20GUSTEnglish One word no, they are not a hard working generation. The past generation was better because they had to work hard to succeed and get what they wanted because in our generation everything is offered to us easily and that made us lazy and dont know what true hard work is.

Ahmad Ali, 23KUPolitical ScienceHard work is not related to a specific nationality. Hard work depends on the person himself.

Sami Salem, 20KUPolitical ScienceI think people in Kuwait are really hard workers and they do their best to achive what they want.

Yaseen Bin-Asri, 18AUMElectrical Engineering TechnologyThe way the government is dealing with the issue makes the minority to be workinghard; but if the government changes, its way, we will see the majority hard working. Hopefully, my generation will fight to apply services to improve this world.

Mohammad Al Khashti, 23AUMMIS In my opinion Kuwait doesn’t have a majority of hard working people because of the social life and responsibility that we handle in our culture. Hard working people can be found in other major parts like entertainment activities but not education.

Salma Ahmad, 19AUMMarketingI don’t think they are hardworking. In the future, my generation will be lazy due to the available technology. It makes everything easier.

Rawd Khalid, 20KUPolitical Science For sure, the majority of Kuwati people are not hard workers at all and this leads to be irresponsible generation.

Sara Al-Muzyen, 20AUM,Industrial EngineeringYes, especially the young generation because as you can see they own most of the businesses now a day and proving to be very responsible and productive. I think the growth will be positive in the future.

Mayar Shehab, 17AUKComputer EngineeringThey are somewhat hardworking, because some of the goals expected have been achieved. As to my generation, they will be the one with creativity especially because most of them are engineers.

Hassan Ahmad, 21AUMMarketingEven though, the majority in Kuwait 10 years ago or so before weren’t considered hard working, as they are now. As to my generation, they are learning day by day and focusing on how to become the better future.

Camera Shy

Jenan Al-Shakhs, 18AUMIndustrial EngineeringIn a way yes. Kuwait is infamous for its lazy people. However, I believe that Kuwait has a lot of innovative people that have small businesses.

An active, fit and sportive student Osama Bo-Rahmah is part of the Triathlon Sport Activity that is held in Kuwait by a group of ambitious sports leaders. Though the sport is very effortful, he decided to be part of it and continued his participation. To know more about the sport, STUDENTALK met with Bo-Rahmah to tell us about his exprience and how he joined.

Despite the pain, the fatigue, and the sore muscles, triathlon is

without any doubt one of the best and glorious sports I have ever

played.

TRIATHLON ATHLETE

OSAMA BO RAHMA dEdICATING HIS EXPERIENCE TO ENCOURAGING SPORT IN KUWAIT

Where did you find about the Triathlon Sport?It was back in 2010 at Marina Waves right next to Kclimb, the 3 Club were giving out the race kits and explaining the race map for those who wanted to participate.

Can you describe the sport for us? There are three different stages in the race. To complete the race, the par-ticipant needs to swim, bike and run in that respect. The distances for each stage varies depending on the type of race. It is either sprint, Olympic, Ironman 70.3, or full Ironman.

What diet or activities do you do to prepare for such sport?Mainly, you need lots of carbs to generate energy for a long span during your training and racing. Pastas, bananas, and dates are my favorite types of food to eat a couple of hours before training or the night before a race. Triathlon might be a little intense, training perhaps twice a day is impor-tant. Therefore, you need to have a good nutrition plan along with the training schedule to maximize the performance

How long have you been participating in the Triathlon Sport?Ever since the sport began its first official race in 2010, I was volunteering on being a Marshall to set up the race and guide the participants through the race course. On the fourth Flying Start Triathlon, in 2011, I decided to participate in the sprint distance. That kept me going! After that, I con-tinued to race in the Flying Start Triathlon. Last year, I also participated in the sprint distance. Unfortunately I won’t be able to participate this year in The Flying Start because I will be in The United States, but for sure I’ll participate in triathlons back in Boulder.

What are the best ways to encourage more people to participate?I believe that the Kuwaiti youth is now more educated about sports and nutrition more than before. I believe that it is a matter of having the initia-tive and incentive to try out something new and to test out one’s limits and his/her capabilities. As individuals get more familiar with triathlon, everybody would know about it and perhaps participate in the races.

What would you like to say to STUdENTALK readers about such sport?Despite the pain, the fatigue, and the sore muscles, the triathlon is without any doubt one of the best and glorious sports I have ever played. The more you are passionate and devoted to triathlon, the more returns you›re going to get. One of the best slogans I heard about triathlon is, “when the ordinary become extraordinary.” It’s never too late to try out a small race, especially when you see 70 year old men and women finish full Ironman races! The glory of finishing a triathlon is something simple words can’t describe, but the feeling of it right at the moment you cross the finish line is like no other. Good luck and TRI hard.

INTERVIEW

As a female participate for two years in a row, Taiba Al-Nouri is encouraging women to join Triathlon Sport Activity for a healthy body and mind. STUDENTALK met with Al-Nouri to explore her experience as a covered Kuwaiti woman and told us about the society’s feedback regarding her participation in a strenuous sport. She also mentioned the reaction she received from friends and family.

I do not think at all it is impossible for women to join. You just have to train by working really hard in

order to prepare for it.

Kuwaiti triathalon athlete

TAIBA AL-NOURI PARTICIPATING IN ACTIVE SPORT

How did you hear about the Triathlon Sport Activity? And how did you join?I heard about triathlon when I first joined the 3 Club back in 2010. It was a coincidence. I was there with my friends who was going to join and I thought I’d try it out. I didn’t think 3 years later this sport will take over my life.

Do you find it hard for women to participate in such activity?I do not think at all that is hard for women to join. You just have to train by working really hard in order to prepare for it. Friends provide the best support. Therefore by joining your friends in a run, biking or even finding a pool to swim will make it easier for women to participate in such a sport that requires alot of effort.

How do you evaluate this sport in Kuwait?That’s a difficult question to answer. I am not sure what are the standards needed to evaluate the sport on a national level. Fortunately, I can just say it’s improving. The number of participants are increasing year by year.

Will the society encourage more women to participate?Without a question, the society will encourage women. Half of the participants are women who are encouraged by their friends and family to join. There are some triathlete moms and others of much older age. Gender is not a problem when it comes to participating.

Were your friends and family against or with such strenuous sport?On the contrary, they were all providing me with all the support I ever needed. Most of my friends have participated as individuals or relay team for fun. They actually inspired me to join.

What would you like to say to STUdENTALK readers about such sport.Get active! You’ll never be young as you are today. Use your strengths and get moving!!

In what ways did you develop your talent? While everyone was focused on school and/or hanging out at the age of 17, I was practicing my talent in Motorbike Riding. I really enjoy practicing my talent. It is like my gateway from the world.

From where did you receive the support you needed?My beloved father supported me all the way through my talent. He is a Motorbike Rider as well which is one of the main reasons why I love my talent. In addition to that, I received support from my friends who contributed to evolve my talent. We practice together all the time in order to add more techniques and moves to our talent.

did you ever regret practicing Motorbike Riding? Thankfully I have no regrets. I try to be always safe. As the infamous King Cali once said “It is always better to be safe than sorry. Burn rubber not your soul”

The EBEL Onde watch collection is set to generate even wider ripples with this chic, generously proportioned Onde 36mm style. A radiant new addition to EBEL’s fluidly sculpted women’s line, this Onde model is fashionably up to the minute. A crown set with 18 diamonds accentuates its inherent femininity, while the alternating brushed/polished finish further enhances the timepiece’s overall visual appeal. The gleaming stainless steel case housing a Swiss quartz movement is water resistant to 50 meters. It elegantly frames a shimmering mother-of-pearl dial protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Refined diamond-polished rhodium-plated hands sweep gracefully over three applied indexes interspersed with eight sparkling diamonds and EBEL’s signature double E logo at 12. Completing the sophisticated look, EBEL’s seamlessly flowing trademark bracelet, complete with EBEL folding clasp, brings the perfect final touch to this grand new addition to the Onde family.

Officine Panerai presents the Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback, a new chronograph with a flyback function and an automatic movement with a power reserve of three days.

Cities are filled with magical stories and myths that sweep like fevers through the streets. Inspired by such legends, Swatch has created a tribute to the power of youth and the urban imagination: GENERATION 27. With nothing but the number 27 on the dial, this new Swatch Gent is what you make of it. Why 27? It’s a versatile number. To begin with, Street legend speaks of an exclusive «27 Club» whose rock-star members all passed away at the age of 27. Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse are among the most famous rock-star members.

Let’s face it: we are surrounded by sound bits, snatches of music, ads, distractions, attractions, messages and reminders. Swatch calls time out for a moment of calm. It’s the moment that counts, and the moment is now: THIS MOMENT (SUOW106). White lettering on the minute hand and the dial forms a two-part Zen script twice every hour: BE HAPPY FOR THIS MOMENT—THIS MOMENT IS FOR LIFE.

FABRIC

Mad’s constant research to discover new materials and technologies has achieved another result and offers us a new opportunity. Temple with a steel core and over-injection in rubber is enriched and interpreted fully with the Mad Philosophy.

Mad in Italy has always made the recycling of materials its philosophy. We have re-utilized jeans and fabrics from old pants and jackets, mostly that belonged to Mad employees themselves. The use of old jeans and fabrics makes each frame unique. In-fact, the temples are checked and paired based on the colour and type of fab-ric, thus guaranteeing a perfect aesthetic pairing, despite giving the privilege of owning an item that is one-of-a-kind.

SOCIAL ARTICLES TIPS FOR BETTER YOU

56

Make sure you are enrolled in all the classes required for your degree. Creating a weekly schedule with all your classes will help you from being tardy.

Read the syllabus or the class instruction to know what is required to get that “A” on your final grade. Note down the dates of your midterms and finals and include them in your personal calendar.

Buy your supplies as early as possible. Get the books, pens, the coloring brushes, canvases and/or all the utensils you will need on time.

Be active! Enroll into the university clubs and organizations. You will be able to know the rules and regulation of your own university and be more familiar with it. And Guess what? It will definitely look great on your future resume.

Do not procrastinate! If you keep telling yourself the lie of “I’ll do it later.” in a blink of an eye you will find yourself cramming the day before the exam. Preparation is the key to kill those midterms and finals.

Socialize and have fun. Yes this is a must! University life is a once in a life time experience which will never happen again, try to get the best of it. Meet people, make friends and mingle at events in order to ensure a fulfilling and successful experience.

World Cup 2022 will not be held in Qatar

Cardiff City Claim Their First Victory In The Premier League

Messi’s Thigh Injury

FIFA’s executive committee will vote to move the 2022 World Cup from Qatar’s summer heat, head of soccer’s world governing body Sepp Blatter has confirmed, but did not guaranteed moving the tournament to a winter date. The comments on Sunday are the strongest indication yet that Qatar could lose the World Cup, with Blatter also conceding that it was a mistake to award a summer tournament to the desert state and that hosting it in winter may not be feasible. The committee members, many of whom participated in the December 2010 vote to award the 2022 World Cup to Qatar over the US, are due to make a decision on the timing of the month-long event during their next meeting in Zurich on October 3-4.

Barcelona’s star player Lionel Messi has a bruised left thigh, the club confirmed. After medical tests, Messi was diagnosed with a thigh bruise which might prevent him from playing in Barcelona’s second Spanish League match slated for Sunday against Malaga. The 26-year-old Messi was withdrawn at halftime of Wednesday’s Spanish Super Cup first leg against Atletico Madrid and could not play in the second half, being replaced by Cesc Fabregas. Despite the absence of the four-time world player of the year in Wednesday’s match against Atletico Madrid

Barcelona’s new acquisition Neymar scored a goal and the match resulted in a 1-1 draw

after former Barcelona player David Villa had scored first.

Cardiff City produced a stunning win over 2011-12 champions Manchester City to claim their first victory in the Premier League. After falling behind to Edin Dzeko’s powerful 52nd-minute opener, Aron Gunnarsson equalised after Joe Hart blocked Fraizer Campbell’s shot. Former Manchester United youngster Campbell then scored twice in eight minutes to put the home side in charge. Alvaro Negredo set up a grandstand finish, but Malky Mackay’s men held on. The final whistle brought with it scenes of celebration from the packed crowd at the Cardiff City Stadium as the Bluebirds won in the top flight of English football for the first time since they were last there in 1962. It was also the first top-flight victory for Mackay, who guided his team to the Championship title last season.

The Hyundai Veloster has claimed the number one spot in Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com ‘10 coolest cars under $18,000’. The Korean company’s innovative hatchback received the award for its unique exterior design, stylish interior and wealth of modern technology, all of which have been key to its increasing popularity in the Middle East.

HYUNdAI VELOSTER - OFFICIALLY THE COOLEST CAR AROUNd

Two criteria – being fun-to-drive and fun-to-own - are critical among the deciding factors for Kelley Blue Book (kbb.com), which is a trusted new and used car information resource in the US. Having been named one of the ‘10 coolest cars under $18,000’ in 2012, the Veloster has gone a step further this year to claim the overall title. This latest honor comes after the model was named Best Hatchback at the 2012 Middle East Motor Awards (MEMA), one of the most prestigious automotive award ceremonies in the region.The 2+1 door hatchback continues Hyundai’s ‘Fluidic Sculpture’ design ethos, its flowing lines combining to create a distinctive form with strong proportions and an immediate sense of movement and balance. The Veloster boasts a truly unique feature, with one door on the driver’s side, and two on the passenger’s side. This helps aerodynamics and safety, ensuring the model stands apart from any other car on the market.

Making it ideal for cool urban living , the Veloster features a wealth of standard kit that includes an engine stop/start button, cruise control, fully automatic air conditioning and an advanced multimedia system with a seven inch colour touch-screen display and MP3 compatibility/iPod connectivity.In the Middle East the Veloster is available in a variety of fun and vibrant colors and is powered by a 1.6-litre MPI petrol engine, delivering 130 PS @ 6300rpm and torque of 157 Nm (116 lb.ft) @ 4850rpm, powering it to a top speed of 200kph. To maximize fuel economy, reduce emissions and enhance refinement, every Veloster is fitted with a six-speed automatic transmission.

Brushing, flossing, and rinsing are the ABCs of oral health, but they’re only the beginning. A marvelous mouth takes more than squeezing paste out of a tube -- think improving your toothbrushing technique, ditching the daily soda habit, and saying good-bye to cigarettes.

10 HINTS TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH ANd TEETH HEALTHY

1- Make a visit to your dentist on regular basis (twice a year, the American dental Association advises) and you will catch problems such as tooth decay (cavities) gum disease or oral fungi or oral cancer at an early stage when they are treatable. Any sore in your mouth which persists more than 7-10 days must be checked out by your dentist.

2- Check your daily sugar consumption: sugar is a major cause of tooth decay (cavities). It fuels bacterial growth and boosts acidity in your mouth. A sugar intake boosts acid production in your mouth for up to 20 minutes. To avoid teeth cavities, try to cut down sweet treats and aim to brush and floss after every meal or snack. The least you can do is to rinse your mouth after every sweet snack you indulge in.

3- Check your consumption of Sodas: 2 ingredients – phosphoric acid and citric acid- give soda its ‘’bite’’ but also eat away at the surface of your teeth. Although an occasional soda won’t hurt sipping a can or more a day makes your tooth enamel softer and more susceptible to cavities. Besides, sodas contain sugar, increasing even more your risk of developing tooth decay (cavities).

4- Avoid alcohol: One of the major causes of oral cancer.

5- Quit smoking: Nicotine and tar not only turn your teeth an ugly shade of yellow they eat away at your gums. smoking creates a ripe environment for bacteria and plaque on your teeth and along the gum line that harms tissue , degrades the bone surrounding the teeth and eventually , increases your risk of tooth loss .Keep in mind that the risk of developing periodontitis ( inflammation of the gums and loss of the bone surrounding the roots of your teeth ) increases threefold if you are a smoker. Besides, smoking is a major cause of oral cancer.

6- Avoid bad habits : clenching on your teeth , biting a pen , chewing ice cubes , using your teeth to open cans , nuts , bottles or to cut threads and adhesive tapes etc… will only put you at risk of having tooth trauma such as tooth abrasion ( worn- out tooth) , cracks , chipping , breakings and necrosis of the pulp ( death of the tooth ‘’nerve’’) .

7- Avoid sharp temperature changes : Switching abruptly from the very hot (tea, soup, etc…) to the very cold ( ice cream…) and vice versa will only make your enamel expand, then contract fast. This will generate cracks in the mass of your enamel and restorations (fillings), thus significantly fragilizing them. Instead, allow your teeth some few minutes before switching from very hot to the very cold and vice-versa. Or Just a cup of warm water (room temperature) before the switch.

8- Use the right toothbrush: Choose a brush with soft bristles, with the right technique; it should last 2-3 months. Don’t wait until you see bent bristles to replace it. Practice the proper technique: Hold the toothbrush at a 45 degrees angle pointed to the gum line and use short circular motions. Brush gently each tooth 10-15 times, but don’t overdo it. Overly brushing with excessive pressure can damage teeth and erode your gum line.

9- Floss: Flossing fosters healthier gums and teeth but like brushing, there is a right way to do it.

This article is written by Dr. Roland FrancisEndodontist (Root Canal Treatment Specialist) Royale Hayat Hospital

Wrap about 30 cm of floss around your fingers to work with. Unroll a fresh section of floss for each space. Use a ‘’shoeshine motion ’’ to guide it gently between teeth without hurting the gum. Keep the floss tight against the tooth to break up plaque while leaving your gums in good shape.

10- Brush your tongue : Most of our bad breath is produced by the microorganisms living on the upper surface of the tongue. Brush your tongue daily in a back-to-front motion with a special tongue brush and you’ll be able to significantly check your bad breath.

At the Marina Dome, we constructed a Photobooth and placed handheld placards on which people wrote thank you messages and clicked pictures of themselves holding the placard. The Photobooth was designed in a way to look like a window of a cute house and was branded with thank you messages. People uploaded, Whatsapped & emailed these pictures to friends and family they wanted to share their gratitude with.

Marina Mall, Dome

We distributed free #ITHANK post-its at Caribou Coffee outlets - a quick, cute, creative way of showing your gratitude towards someone or something.

Watch the #ithank video on our YouTube!

We planted a distinguished couch at the mezzanine floor of the luxury center of Al Hamra Tower, a place where you could sit down and talk to a friend about things you are grateful for. The cozy, comfortable and cool environment was the hub of many a deep conversations!!!

Al Hamra

One of the simplest and most effortless habits to live a more positive life is to take a minute or two every day and focus on the wonder that life is. There are a gazillion reasons for us to be grateful, let’s start from our very own heart, every time our heart beats a miracle happens, every heartbeat thousands of mechanisms fall in the right place to combine and give us life!! Isn’t that reason enough for us to be grateful?

This Ramadan, Alnowair launched the #iThank campaign to remind us, inspire us and encourage us to feel and show gratitude.

The iconic bridge at Marina Mall was transformed for 2 weeks into the bridge of gratitude. We built a 50 Meter

long wall in the center of the bridge and let people write things they are thankful for on the #ITHANK

post-its and stick them on the wall!! This was Kuwait’s longest ever Yellow Wall of Gratitude!!!

AUK Mass Communication & Media Students Visit Al Hadath Studios

LOYAC members performing on Beirut streets

Assistant Professor of Mass Communication & Media at the American University of Kuwait, Dr. Mohammad Akbar, gave his students at the Broadcast Journalism class an opportunity to visit and tour Al-Hadath Studios - a local broadcast studio in Kuwait. During the visit, Hussein Jamal, the owner of Al-Hadath Studios and Director of the News Department and Political Programs at Kuwait TV, welcomed the students and conducted a tour in the premises while sharing his personal experiences as a journalist. As part of an applied learning project, the students were given the chance to record a session that they had created inside an actual studio. Students were assigned specific roles to play as a TV crew, such as interviewer, floor manager, director, where they managed the equipment themselves.Dr. Akbar explained that the students felt comfortable inside the studio. “The students acted professionally and really took the experience in.They put all their energy into creating a full-length live video as a practice for their class”, he added.

On September 23, members from LOYAC wanted to spread the joy and exuberance in the beautiful city of Beirut. They have occupied the streets of Hamra and Verdun with their trainer from Brazil, Moahmoud Baydon, on the Street Theatre. It was a way for the members to express their free spirit out in the open and to give the audience a wonderful memory to remember.

Angelina Jolie’s Statement on the Situation in Syria

Angelina Jolie has released a statement about the children of Syria and the horrific conditions they are subject to in order to raise awareness in the international community. “What is happening to the children of Syria is sickening,” the 38-year-old actress and UNHCR Special Envoy said. “Thousands of innocent young boys and girls have lost their lives in horrific circumstances, including in recent attacks near Damascus. And now one million Syrian children are struggling to survive as refugees in heart-breaking conditions.” “Each one of these child refugees is an innocent victim of a senseless conflict. These vulnerable children need shelter, food and assistance. But above all, they need security,” Angelina added. Angelina then urged, “The international community must not look away from Syria, they must renew the search for peace with urgency and determination.”

NSync is BACK!

An official Twitter account by NSync announces their reunion at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. If there was any doubt about the vague signs being thrown around, they were pretty much all but erased Saturday night when the band established an official Verified Twitter account. The account had over 50,000 followers in its first five hours active on the site. Band members Joey Fatone, Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick, and JC Chasez are expected to reunite with breakout superstar Justin Timberlake, who’s receiving the prestigious VMA Vanguard Award on Sunday. the group “is expected to perform” their biggest hit, “Bye Bye Bye” and reenact some of their biggest videos in some sort of video medley before Justin performs his new single and gets his award. NBC late night host Jimmy Fallon will present Justin with his award.

North West’s picture

Squashing rumors that he and Kim were withholding the pictures of their new daughter until they received a high enough offer from a magazine to publish them, Kanye insisted they “have not tried to put anything in a magazine.” He then went on to announce that he would be sharing a snapshot of their bundle-of-joy because he was sick of being followed by paparazzi gunning to get the first look since she was born on June 15. Kanye, beaming like a proud parent, explained that having a child has strengthened his bond with Kim even further. “It’s brought us closer because there is someone more important than us to us for the first time,” Kanye mentioned. Kanye also confessed that becoming a father gave him a new perspective on a moment that has made him infamous, the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when he interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech.

Ben Affleck: The New Batman

Actor Ben Affleck will play Batman in an upcoming Superman sequel that will see the two caped crusaders face off against each other, film studio Warner Bros Pictures said on Thursday. Affleck, 41, will take on the role of reclusive billionaire Bruce Wayne, Batman’s alter-ego, in director Zack Snyder’s 2015 sequel to this year’s Superman reboot “Man of Steel,” starring 30-year-old British actor Henry Cavill. The announcement that two iconic comic book heroes will face off against each other was made by Snyder earlier this year at San Diego’s annual Comic-Con, a convention

celebrating comic-book and pop culture. “It’s beyond mythological to have Superman and our new Batman facing off, since they are the greatest super heroes in the world,” Snyder said. Affleck joins a list of actors who have donned Batman’s black mask and cape, including Michael Keaton, George Clooney and most recently Christian Bale in Christopher Nolan’s “Dark Knight” trilogy. Both Batman and Superman are part of the DC Comics universe, which is part of the Warner Bros Entertainment division, a subsidiary of Time Warner Inc.
