Snow In Saudi Arabia !!!! OMG !!!

Poor Camels :P 
Salam Alaykum...

In the picture you see a guy playing with snow and some poor camels walking behind him. Usually in Tabouk, a small city located in north west of Saudi Arabia,  never snow that hard, but its geting colder year after year in Saudi Arabia. And also, one thing i noticed here in Rochester, people were talking about this winter which is unusual winter according to previous winters  in Rochester. " I think we Saudis are lucky with this weather at here :P

Globalization

War & Colonialism impact:
It is very obvious that wars have a big impact on the countries that have been attracted. So the country who began to fight or " invade " should help out the country was  invaded by them. Because they robbed their nature resources and left them in a big bloody civil war. For example , the war against Iraq, the main goal for that war is economical purpose. Moreover, their reasoning after all damage and devastation, was unmeaningful and shameful. Sadly, Iraq was expected to become one of the developing counties, but after the war it considers as poor or undeveloped country. 


Leadership issues: 

True Democracy and freedom of speech are the only ways to hear the voice on the nation. Leaders can lead the countries to either success or to extreme poverty. Leader should be democratic, diplomatic and loyal to his own nation and people. And also, the president should be selected by the people. There are so many good  examples for leaders who leaded their countries to extreme success. For instant,  Najib Razak, the Prime Minister of Malaysia ,he leaded his county to good  economical status among his peers, in very shot time and wisely.


This is my opinion take or leave it
Thank you
Yousif.

Susan B. Anthony Trip

Group picture 


I have heard about Susan Anthony before but i haven't visit her home. In Friday February 18, 2012. Me and my classmates went to Susan Anthony house, where she lived and fought for the women's right of voting, until she died in March 13, 1906. During the tour we had in her house, we learned a lot about her personal life and how could she scarified for her time, health and money for her high commissioner. Susan Anthony worried about women's right in this world, therefor, she worked on that .She was able to change the U.S. constitution to give women the right of voting. For that Strenuous procession, Susan B. Anthony immortalized in women's right of voting history. 


My lovely teachers and sweet classmates .

Food Style




This is your topic: Where does your food information come from? Give an example. How does this information affect what you eat?

My food information come from two main sores, First one is my background about food and nutrition as a medical student. Second one is from my mother as teacher and as a house holder.
For example, I have studied a course at my university about nutrition and Biochemistry, from this class i gained more information and details about many harmful and useful food substances. My other source was my mother as i mentioned. She was teaching me and my siblings about what should we eat and shouldn't. She gave he time and effort to make sure we eat in healthy way and avoid harmful food. After i have got all the information about healthy and non-healthy food, i started to pay attention to my food. I became very careful in choosing my ingredients. Because, food is consider the source of diseases and in the same time it the source of treatment or therapy as well. For that reason i had to be pickier in my food.

Health is wealth

Health is wealth
After  reading  Michael  Pollan’s  article  I  am  more  careful   in picking my food . I will be more careful choosing my food and my ingredients. Because, food is consider the source of diseases and in the same time it the source of treatment or therapy as well. For that reason we have to be pickier in our food.

What is the most important substance it should or it shouldn’t be in our food? There so many elements are considered as Cancerogenic elements, it shouldn’t be in our food. For example, artificial colors, some type of gluten and fake flavors. On the other hand we have to be sure that our food contains all types of important minerals such as, vitamins, carbohydrates and proteins.

In a word, as everyone knew, food is one of the daily basis habits. There for, if it goes in impropriate way it will has impact indirectly or directly on our life and health. There is a saying it may describe my opinion about food versus health
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away."

My Wallet's contents

My Wallet



My wallet's content represent my identity in many accepts . First, it represent me as a student who lives away form his home as by having a student ID and some important cards from the place i live . Secondly, it shows that i have a very strong relationship with my friends and colleagues, one of these relationships showed in a bill of Cambodian  currency that i have given by a friend from Cambodia as a memorial gift as gave her a bill form my currency as well. 

In addition, my wallet reflect my personality as a very loyal son to his family, so i keep some pictures of my family members. I feel that they always give me support even i'm far away from them.

In a word, my identity as student and a person reaccept old friendship, has shown in my wallet in a few things that i have mentioned  above . However, i keep in my mind, i have to keep my wallet safe because it means a lot to me and its something i cant imagine my life without it but i lost it once and i had really bad experience. Since then, i always keep it safe and try to not lost it again.
