Saudi constructs world's 2nd-tallest building (AFP) 13 April 2010, 8:09 PM An under-construction hotel complex in Saudi Arabia will feature the world’s second-tallest building. The building will be topped by a clock six times bigger than London’s Big Ben, the hotel’s general manager said Tuesday. The Mecca Royal Clock Tower will be made up of 662 metres (2,171 feet) of concrete structure and a 155-metre (508-foot) crecent-topped metal spire, Mohammed al-Arkubi said at a press conference in Dubai. Combined, the two parts of the tower in the Muslim holy city of Mecca would be only roughly 11 metres (36 feet) shorter than Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest tower at 828 metres (2,717 feet). Even the concrete section of the Mecca Royal Clock Tower would be taller than the current second-tallest building in the world, the 508-meter (1,676-foot) Taipei 101 in Taiwan. “The first part of the hotel will open at the end of June, while the clock will begin operating at the end of July,” ahead of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which is expected to begin around August 10, Arkubi said. The German-made clock, billed as “the largest in the world,” will have 45-metre (147-foot) wide and 43-metre (141-foot) tall faces on all four sides of the tower, he said. He added that it will be visible from 17 kilometres (10 miles) away at night and 11 to 12 kilometres (six to seven miles) away during the day. “Putting Mecca time in the face of Greenwich Mean Time, this is the goal,” Arkubi said. He said the three-billion-dollar, seven-tower complex of hotels, called Abraj al-Bayt Towers, will contain 3,000 rooms and suites, the majority of which will overlook the Grand Mosque, which Muslims face for daily prayers. The complex is being constructed by the Bin Laden Group, a giant real estate firm, on behalf of the Saudi government, he said. The complex will be managed by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts and its revenue will be placed in a “waqf,” or Islamic trust, devoted to the development and maintenance of Muslim holy sites, Arkubi said. http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticle09.asp?xfile=data/middleeast/2010/April/middleeast_April20 0.xml&section=middleeast

China doctor gives 'gift' of height Monday, April 12, 2010 ORTHOPAEDIC surgeon Bai Helong hikes up his trousers, places his foot on his desk and marks the spot just below his hairless knee where he cuts into the legs of patients who want to be taller. Over the past 15 years, Bai has given the gift of height to about 3,000 patients aged 14 to 55 — Chinese, Americans, Germans, Japanese — about half of whom went through with surgery simply because they did not like being short. "I'm something of an authority in this field," explains Bai, who uses a technique he developed himself at a modest private clinic in the suburbs of Shanghai. He saws through both the tibia and the fibula below the knee — "without touching the bone marrow", he says — to "make the dream come true" of those who say they suffer psychologically from being short. One week later, the bones begin to regenerate. Heavy braces made of nickel and titanium, each weighing about half a kilo (one pound), are screwed into the inner part of the patient's legs. Every day for the following four months, Bai expands the braces to gradually stretch the leg. "We need four months to get six to eight centimetres," or two to three inches, the surgeon says. After that, for four more months, the bones get stronger and patients are allowed to begin to walk. Leg-lengthening was first performed in the 1950s in the former Soviet Union, and then in China, but with sometimes catastrophic results. In the past, the leg was cut in three places, affecting the delicate bone marrow, and pins were used to steady the bone. In some cases, one leg was left shorter than the other and infections were common. Today, Bai says, the procedure is safe. Instead of stretching the leg by 1.0mm to 1.5mm a day as in the past, he aims to progress half as fast. "We've not had a single failure since 1995, and now it's not painful," insists the doctor, who charges 75,000 yuan (around $15,200) for the surgery. So who is willing to endure such a procedure, which involves months of total immobilisation and a fair amount of discomfort? "A small person can encounter all kinds of problems — in his or her marriage, family life, workplace," Bai says. "The person feels inferior, and experiences psychological problems. I even have met people who wanted to kill themselves." Dan Dan, a pretty 25-year-old Chinese woman who is studying Japanese, says she was unhappy when she stood 1.53 metres (five feet) tall. Four months after surgery at Bai's clinic, she is smiling — and six centimetres taller. "I wanted to improve my self-image. I am very happy," says Dan Dan, grimacing as she walks at a snail's pace on crutches through the halls of the clinic, her body contorted. "I hope that within a year, I will be able to walk normally. Running, that's another story," she says. Only Dan Dan's mother is aware of what she is doing — her friends have no idea where she is. "It seems pretty dangerous at the beginning — they cut through your bones, that is not really socially acceptable in China. It's not like getting your eyelids done," she explains, referring to a surgical procedure some Chinese women undergo to give them rounder, wider-looking eyes. "I held off for a long time. I was really scared." Wang Lijun has not told her friends where she is either and as a result, they no longer contact her. That was a price the 30-year-old was willing to pay during 13 months of treatment, which began in 2008 and took her from 1.52 metres to 1.60 metres — a height gain easily achieved with a pair of stilettos. "It was my secret. I told no one," says Wang, who now works on the administration side of Bai's clinic and says she can run and jump "almost like before. I had lost all of my self-confidence. I wanted a better life." Beyond the loss of her social circle, Wang says there were other sacrifices to make — the months of painful treatment, the dark, vicious-looking scars on her legs. Her next step? A plastic surgeon, perhaps. Is Bai a miracle worker or a sorcerer's apprentice with a screwdriver and a tire iron who is making a profit from the suffering of others? The surgeon hits out at his critics, especially "those who oppose me without knowing what my work is all about ". But as is often the case in China, Bai may be working in a grey zone. In 2006, the health ministry sent a notice to provincial authorities, ordering them to limit leg-lengthening operations to orthopaedic cases — excluding patients requesting surgery for purely cosmetic reasons. The recommendation said the operation could only be performed on the disabled, whose legs were disfigured due to "congenital, accidental or disease-related conditions". "It is forbidden to perform this surgery on people whose limbs are not deformed," the ministry said. When asked about the notice, the ministry declined to comment on whether the recommendation was still in force. And Bai is still a member in good standing of China's Orthopaedics Association.

Fadeexado diblomaasiyadeed oo hareeyey booqashadii Madaxweynaha Soomaaliya ee Guriga Downing Street Mar 12, MogadishuTimes, By Maxamed Xaaji (Ingiriis) Madaxweynaha Soomaaliya Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed ayaa toddobaadkan socdaal ku yimid magaalada London. Booqashada Madaxweynaha ayaa, marka laga eego diplomatic category, waxay ahayd mid salaan ah (courtesy visit). Is-aragga noocan ah ayaa aalaaba wuxuu yahay mid kooban. Ujeeddada socdaalka Madaxweynaha ayaa wuxuu ku saleysnaa in Ra’iisal Wasaaraha Ingiriiska Gordon Brown iyo xisbigiisa Labour-ku ay ku muujiyaan inay diyaar u yihiin inay gacan ka geystaan sidii ay wax ula qaban lahaayeen dowladda Soomaaliya. Booqashadan oo kale ayaa dowladda Soomaaliya waxay u tahay fursad ay adduunka ku weydiisato kaalmo caalami ah. Hase ahaatee, intii ay socotay ayaa waxaa dhacay fadeexado gef ku ah dhaqanka diblomaasiyadda. Kulankii Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed uu Gordon Brown kula yeeshay guriga 10 Downing Street ayaa waxaa buux-dhaafiyey dad ku dhow labaatan qofood oo isugu jiray wafdigiisa, xildhibaanno iyo dad sheeganaya inay Madaxweynaha u yihiin la-taliyeyaal iyo gacan-yareyaal, kuwaasoo isku dayey dhammaantood inay isla sawiraan Ra’iisal Wasaaraha Ingiriiska. Waxaa kaloo dhici weyday inuu Ra'iisal Wasaaruhu iridda ku soo dhoweeyo Madaxweynaha. Waxaa shaashadaha laga daawanayey iyada oo dadkaas gacmaha la soo qabanayo, lagana soo celinayo agagaarka Gordon Brown. Waxaa kaloo la arkayey dad gacmaha ku sita jaakadaha dhaadheer ee qabowga laga xirto (overcoat) oo ag taagan Sheekh Shariif iyo Gordon Brown oo damacsan inay sawir wada galaan. Waxaa kaloo dhacday in markii uu Sheekh Sharif gacan-qaadayey Gordon Brown ay is fahmi kari waayeen billowgii hore, oo ninkii turjubaanka u ahaa Madaxweynaha uu gooni u istaagay oo uu u dhaqmay sidii inuu yahay nin Wasiir ah, iyadoo markii dambe uu soo dhaqaaqay nin Soomaali ah, si uu uga tarjumo. Gefkaas protocol-xumada ah ayaa wuxuu la mid yahay waxyaabihii uu buuggiisa la yiraahdo Safirka kaga sheekeeyey Danjire Peter S. Bridges oo ahaa Safiirkii Mareykanka ee fadhiyey Soomaaliya sannadihii 1984-86. Laba jeer oo wafdi ka socda Waaxda Gaashaandhigga dowladda Mareykanka ee Pentagon ay la kulmayeen saraakiil dhinaca Soomaalida ah ayaa General Maxamed Cali Samatar oo ahaa Wasiirka Difaacu wuxuu ka codsaday Ambassador Bridges inuu uga tarjumo wafdiga. Wuxuu yiri Bridges, “Wuxuu Samatar ku hadlayey af-Talyaani, wuxuuna iga codsaday inaan ka tarjumo maadaama aan Talyaaniga bartay intii aan ka shaqeynayey safaaradda Mareykanka ee Rome. Markii uu Samatar i weydiistay inaan ka tarjumo waan ka carooday markii hore, waayo shaqada aan u joogay Soomaaliya ma ahayn turjubaannimo. Hase ahaatee markii hadalka Xoghayaha aan af-Talyaani ugu turjumayey Samatar waxaan ku dhex darsaday kelmado aan jeclaa in la ii yiraahdo." Si hasta ha ahaatee, shaqaalaha xafiiska Gordon Brown ayaa markii ay arkeen qaabka ay wax uga dheceen guriga 10 Downing Street waxay go’aansadeen in Ra’iisal Wasaare Gordon Brown uusan sagootinin Madaxweyne Shariif, isla markaana aysan wada qaban shir jaraa’id iyadoo markii horena ay ku jirtay qorshaha socdaalka Madaxweynaha. Waxaa la arkayey Xogyahaha Arrimaha Dibadda Ingiriiska, David Miliband oo sagootinaya Madaxweynaha, iyada oo ay si qaab darro ah, oo aan lahayn wax tixgelin ah, u salaamayaan dadkii kale ee la socday Sheekh Shariif. Qaab-darradaas ayaa waxaa ka mid ah; iyagoo gacanta ka salaamayey Miliband iyagoo sii jeeda oo sii eegaya Madaxweyne Shariif oo sii galaya gaarigii lagu siday. Waxaa la moodayey inay Madaxweynaha u kala firxanayaan oo ay is leeyihiin ‘yuusan idinka fakan’ ama ‘yaan meesha la idinkaga tegin.' Ceebaha kale ee dhacay ayaa ahaa; in Wasaaradda Arrimaha Dibadda Ingiriiska ay u sameysay Madaxweynaha muddada uu joogo dalka Ingiriiska koox ka mid ah shaqaalahooda oo isugu jira rayid iyo ciidan. Qaybta rayidku waxay mas’uul ka ahayd howlaha Madaxweynaha iyo xiriirkiisa, halka qaybta ciidankuna ay u xilsaarnayd ammaankiisa. Shaqaalahan ayaa waxaa laga dareemayey jahawareer ka haysta dhanka xafiiska Madaxweynaha, oo ay kala garan waayeen shaqooyinkooda (job description) iyo waxa ay ku kala magacaaban yihiin. Fadeexadaha noocaas ah iyo isku dhex-yaaca intaas le’eg ayaa wuxuu, si caddaan ah, u muujinayaa in Madaxweyne Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed ay xafiiskiisa maamulayaan dad aan wax aqoon iyo khibrad midna u lahayn protocol-ka dowliga ah iyo xeerarka diblomaasiyadda. Waxaa kaloo intaa dheer inay yihiin dadkii shaqa la'aanta ku ahaa Europe iyo America. Waxaa yaab leh in nimankaas qaarkood ay Madaxweynaha ugu magacaaban yihiin Chief of Staff iyo Chief of Protocol, iyaga oo aan weligood horey uga soo shaqeyn howlahaas dowladeed. Marka la eego cilaaqaadka caalamiga ah iyo qaanuunka diblomaasiyadda, protocol-ku waa qeybta ugu muhiimsan xafiiska Madaxtooyada, taasoo ay waajib tahay in laga fogeeyo qardajeex. Tusaale, habeenkii Arbacada ayaa waxaan ka mid ahaa dad kala duduwan oo Madaxweynaha kula kulmay hoteelka uu ku soo degay. Wuxuu u muuqday nin daalan oo aan haysan wax ka caawiya howsha xafiiskiisa. Isaga ayaa hadalka furanayey, isla markaana xiranayey. Shaqaalaha xafiiska madaxweynaha ayaa nala fadhiyey kuraasta iyagoo aad mooddo inay ka mid yihiin dadka uu qaabilayo. Kuwo kale ayaa taagnaa gadaashiisa, waxaana lagu jahawareeray inay yihiin waardiyeyaal iyo inay yihiin gacan-yareyaashiisa. Markii la gudbinayey talooyinka, ma jirin cid u qaadeysay note ama wax u qoreysay xafiiskiisa ama xitaa hadalka qeybinaysay, taasoo keentay inuu Madaxweynuhu hadalka qeybiyo. Sidoo kale, khudbadihii uu Sheekh Shariif ka jeediyey mac-hadka Chatham House iyo theatre-ka Whitechapel ayaa iyaguna waxay ahaayeen kuwo aan lafa-gur dheer lagu soo sameyn. Madaxweynaha ayaa hadalkiisa oo aan qornayn iyo isaga oo dadka la shaqeeya aysan u soo qorin note uu mawduuca ka tixraaco, waxaa mar kasta ka muuqatay inuu raadinayo hadalka, ayna ku adag tahay inuu xusho sadarkii uu rabay inuu yiraahdo iyo ereyadii uu rabay inuu isticmaalo. Haddaba, waxaa Madaxweynaha la gudboon inuu dhug iyo dhego u yeesho wax ka qabashada xafiiskiisa inta uusan u hanqaltaagin wax ka qabashada xasaradaha ka socda Soomaaliya - “Oodi sida ay u kala korreyso ayaa loo kala qaadaa.” By Maxamed Xaaji (Ingiriis) ingiriis@yahoo.com http://www.mogadishutimes.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1139:fadeexado-diblomaasi yadeed-oo-hareeyey-booqashadii-madaxweynaha-soomaaliya-ee-guriga-downing-street&catid=44:wareysiyada

Cuba launches new cigar for women By Carlos Batista (AFP) – March 7, 2010 HAVANA — Gripped between the teeth of Fidel Castro, Winston Churchill, a Cuban peasant or a Western businessman, the cigar has long been a male preserve. Now however Cuba hopes to woo the opposite sex with a new model for women, the "Julieta". Short, slim and light in colour, the Julieta is designed, its maker says, to be "enjoyed quickly, following the life rhythms of today's sophisticated active women." The Cuban-Spanish company Habanos SA, which promotes all brands of handmade Cuban cigars -- considered the finest in the world -- launched the subtle-flavoured Julieta at the 12th Havana cigar festival this month. "It's a homage to women," says Habanos vice-president Javier Terres. At 12 centimetres (five inches) long and a slender 1.3 centimetres (half an inch) wide, it's designed to be held by a feminine hand. Torres noted that women play a key role in making this new luxury product -- 90 percent of the 300 workers at Havana's El Laguito factory are women -- and said many already smoked cigars. "I enjoy smoking very much. A woman does not lose her femininity just because she smokes, quite the opposite," says 60-year-old Miriam Obelin, clouds of smoke blurring her face as she puffs away. For 14 years, Norma Fernandez made the long Cohiba Lanceros cigars so famously enjoyed by Castro, the father of the Cuban Revolution and former president. When Castro, now 83, gave up smoking in 1986, Fernandez quit her job as a "torcedora", or cigar-roller. "I met him (Castro) two or three times. He told me I made good cigars," says the 57-year-old Fernandez who is now in charge of quality control for the world's most expensive cigar, the 375-euro (500-dollar) Cohiba Behike. These days women in Cuba do not just roll cigars, they are also playing a growing role in tobacco production. But in a Latin country known for its male chauvinism, cigar-smoking women -- whether workers or businesswomen -- are still sometimes looked down on by men. "Women are beautiful. Smoking cigars does not go well with this," says 65-year-old builder Jose Torres. Habanos SA clearly does not agree, with its new campaign to change attitudes and develop a market that has long been neglected. Currently only 10 percent of the world's cigar-lovers are women, according to industry sources. While Cuban authorities routinely add warnings about the dangers of smoking on packets of cigarettes, this is not the case for cigars which are viewed in Havana as less damaging to the health. Under pressure from global economic crisis, which led to a fall in tourism in Cuba, and with the trend in some Western countries banning smoking in bars and restaurants, sales of Cuban cigars fell in 2009 by eight percent, or 360 million dollars. A trail of fragrant smoke drifts behind 22-year-old cigar-roller Yelena Vento. "My boyfriend loves the smell of tobacco, he doesn't mind it at all. A woman who smokes is beautiful and elegant," she says. Her colleague Adonis Velasco, 32, who says he "feels particularly good" when he sees a woman smoking a cigar, does not disagree. For many in Cuba, where average wages are around 20 dollars a month, being able to smoke a fine cigar -- which can cost about five dollars -- is not a matter of gender, but of money.

“Dad baa waxay leeyihiin haddii Somaliland ku darsami weydo Soomaaliya ninkastaaba intiisa ha goosto” Faisal Cali Waraabe Hargeysa (Jam)- Guddoomiyaha xisbiga mucaaradka ah ee UCID Eng. Faysal Cali-waraabe, ayaa fashiliyey qorshe sir ah oo uu sheegay in la doonayo in lagu kala googooyo dalka Somaliland. Eng. Faysal Cali-waraabe waxa uu xusay in qorshaha lagu kala googeynayo dalka ay ku jiraan dawladdo uu sheegay inay saaxiib la yihiin Somaliland, kuwaasi oo aanu magac dhabin, isaga oo xcaddeeyey in aannu ilaa hadda ka warqabin xukuumaddu qorshahan ku jirto iyo in aanay ka warqabin oo nacasnimo ku tahay. Guddoomiyaha xisbiga UCID oo shalay hadlay magaalada Hargeysa wax auu shacabka Somaliland ugu baaqay inay ka feejignaadaan qorshahan uu sheegay in lagu kala googeynayo dalka, isaga oo dadka arrintaa ku mashquulsana uga digay in difaaca Somaliland ay u diyaar yihiin dadkii dalka ka xoreeyey taliskii Siyaad Barre ee quwada weynaa. “Somaliland waxa ku socda shirqool weyn oo lagu doonayo in dalkeena lagu googoosto, dad baa waxay leeyihiin haddii Somaliland ku darsami weydo Soomaaliya ninkastaaba intiisa ha goosto. Qorshahana waxa ku jira dawlado aynu la saaxiib nahay oo dabada ka riixaya, dadka reer Somaliland waxaan leeyahay walaalayaal feejignaada waxa innagu socota arrin khatar ah oo dadkeenu aanay u jeedin, dawladeenana inay qayb ka tahay iyo inay nacasnimo ka tahay aanan kala garanaynin, balse waxa innagu socda qorshe khatar ah oo in dalkeena la googooyo oo la sameeyo qariidado oo xuduudo la beddelo. Dadka arrintaa wadana waxaannu u sheegaynaa in aanay taas suurtogal noqonayn oo ay maanta joogaan dadkii Somaliland ka soo dhiciyey Soomaaliya, iyaga oo waqtigii halganka manta ka quwan badan oo ka midaysan, cidkastana waannu iska celinaynaa, waanan ilaashanaynaa dhulkayaga iyo qarannimadayda,” ayuu yidhi Eng. Faysal Cali-waraabe. Waa markii u horraysay ee siyaasi reer Somaliland ahi ku dhawaaqo inay jiraan qorshayaal la doonayo in lagu kala googooyo Jamhuuriyadda Somaliland, inkasta oo ay siyaasiyiintu mucaarid iyo muxaafidba midba dhinaca kale ku eedeeyo inay ku hawlan yihiin qorshayaal lid ku ah qaranimada Somaliland.
