			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.q8path.com/http://www.q8path.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/BlockTwitter.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-7755 aligncenter" title="BlockTwitter" src="http://www.q8path.com/http://www.q8path.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/BlockTwitter.jpg" alt="" width="650" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>Twitter announced before one day ago, starting new strategy of forcing blocking specific tweets/posts on Twitter in specific countries in the world. Well, I don&#8217;t think this satisfy twitters with this policy, as it was available since twitter started. Through my review, if this happened locally the Twitters may move to Facebook as this action is happening from the Twitter by it self.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Here is the <a href="http://blog.twitter.com/2012/01/tweets-still-must-flow.html">post</a> were was publish from <a href="http://blog.twitter.com">Twitter Blog</a>:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>“The open exchange of information can have a positive global impact … almost every country in the world agrees that freedom of expression is a human right. Many countries also agree that freedom of expression carries with it responsibilities and has limits.”</p>
<p>As we continue to grow internationally, we will enter countries that have different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression. Some differ so much from our ideas that we will not be able to exist there. Others are similar but, for historical or cultural reasons, restrict certain types of content, such as France or Germany, which ban pro-Nazi content.</p>
<p>Until now, the only way we could take account of those countries’ limits was to remove content globally. Starting today, we give ourselves the ability to reactively withhold content from users in a specific country — while keeping it available in the rest of the world. We have also built in a way to communicate transparently to users when content is withheld, and why.</p>
<p>We haven’t yet used this ability, but if and when we are required to withhold a Tweet in a specific country, we will attempt to let the user know, and we will clearly mark when the content has been withheld. As part of that transparency, we’ve expanded our partnership with Chilling Effects to share this new page,<a href="http://chillingeffects.org/twitter">http://chillingeffects.org/twitter</a>, which makes it easier to find notices related to Twitter.</p>
<p>There’s more information in our Help pages, both on our <a href="https://support.twitter.com/articles/20169222">Policy</a> and about <a href="https://support.twitter.com/articles/20169220">Your Account Settings</a>.</p>
<p>One of our core values as a company is to defend and respect each user’s voice. We try to keep content up wherever and whenever we can, and we will be transparent with users when we can&#8217;t. The Tweets must continue to flow.</p>

<p>Taco Bell will be launching tomorrow their newly anticipated Bell Box which will be available at all Taco Bell locations within Kuwait!.</p>
<p>By purchasing the Bell Box, you save money VS. purchasing the items individually:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bell Box #1: You save KD 1.200</li>
<li>Bell Box #2: You save KD 950 fils</li>
<li>Bell Box #3: You save KD 1.050</li>
<li>Buy all 3 for a large group and save KD 3.200</li>
</ul>
<p>It is great for a group of 4-5 people and a combination of boxes goes well for any gathering or party, specially for the Taco&#8217;s lovers.</p>
<p>Just visit to any Taco Bell branches in Abu Halifa, Shaab, Kaifan and the Avenues Mall.</p>

<p>Today night during my way out from home. I found new sign on AlBada&#8217;a and fifth ring rd. Well, I tried to manage to take some shots from my iPhone. As you see above, there were three signs of a hotel which were perviously placed since years. Suddenly today a new big sign with a competitive sector placed over/next to it. Well, I don&#8217;t think this is by mistake, as there are three signs with the same thing. From my academic factors, competitive sectors shouldn&#8217;t work this way, which I think this really happened locally. I&#8217;ve been to many places, but haven&#8217;t seen something like this.</p>

<p>Yesterday night, I tried to get my room and office clean with unneeded items and old stuff. So I tried to find things were could I re-use it. One of these items were my old wallet Louis Vuitton, which is getting unused. After cleaning it, I thought of using it as a note-book for my daily notes. Throughout searching for small papers, successfully packed them up with looks professionally.</p>
<p>This could be one of the thing could reuse it again, so why we don&#8217;t follow this process in life, specially in our culture.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a lovely item, made by Q8Path.</p>

Specially, they promise it&#8217;s original and no one has it. But it&#8217;s available everywhere. Each year the price increase from 1KD and now 3KD per software.</p>
<p>Till when these shops are selling copy CD&#8217;s when they are not following the copyrights terms.</p>

Alwaleed is one of the wealthiest men in the world and his interest in Twitter could mean even bigger things for the site in the future. In August, Twitter raised $800 million from private investors and was valued at $8.4 billion. Alwaleed’s stake could value the company at more than $10 billion now.</p>
<p>The Twitter stake, bought jointly by Alwaleed and his Kingdom Holding Co investment firm, resulted from &#8220;months of negotiations&#8221;, Kingdom said in a statement.</p>

<p>Applying an $8 billion valuation figure for Twitter used by some analysts, the investment by Alwaleed and Kingdom amounts to a 3.75-percent stake.</p>
<p>Twitter, which allows people to send 140-character text messages, or Tweets, to groups of so-called followers, is one of the Web&#8217;s most popular social networking services, along with Facebook and Zynga.</p>
<p>The company said in September that was in no hurry to undertake a hotly anticipated initial public offering. It raised $400 million in venture capital financing this summer.</p>
<p>It now counts more than 100 million active users who log onto the service at least once a month.</p>
