Omani capital cleans up after cyclone

Death toll from Gonu rises to at least 35, with 30 missing

MUSCAT, Oman - This seaside city has long been renowned as one of the Mideast's prettiest, with a gorgeous mountain backdrop, a smattering of hilltop castles overlooking a sparkling sea, and a proud leader who rigorously tends to his capital city.
But on Thursday, Muscat came unglued. Cyclone Gonu romped through the tidy Omani city before heading north across the Sea of Oman and hitting Iran.
The postcard-perfect mountains that are the city's pride became its pain. Torrential rains poured onto the bone-dry peaks and then flowed into canyons and dry riverbeds that channeled the raging water directly into the city.
Bridges collapsed. Buses were piled in the wadis, the normally dry riverbeds that course through the city.
Muscat's lush palm and eucalyptus groves were blown over along with telephone and power lines. Even the normally sparkling blue sea, just off the crescent-shaped Muttrah Corniche looked like foamy chocolate milk.
Out on the sea, Gonu was downgraded to a tropical depression later Thursday, rapidly losing energy as it moved toward the Iranian coast. The storm was expected to spare Iran's offshore oil installations, which lie more than 120 miles to the west.
At least 35 people were reported dead, including three in Iran, and 30 more were reported missing.
In Muscat, residents spoke of a night of horror as turgid floodwaters ripped into their homes, carried off refrigerators and cars, and left their streets gouged by sinkholes and caked in shoals of mud.
Nidhal al-Masharafi, 31, hunkered all night on his rooftop with his wife and six children, with just the cell phone he gripped in his hand.
"The water broke through the walls. It came inside the house. It swept everything out," al-Mashrafi said, limping as he wandered the bank of a flooded wadi.
A half mile from his home, al-Mashrafi found his 2006 Subaru Outback, lying atop a taxi in the rapids of a new roaring river that slashed through his neighborhood.
From his rooftop perch, he said he saw floodwaters sweep 16 cars past, including a Ford Explorer which bobbed by with its headlights on.
"I called the police because I thought someone was still inside," he said. The Explorer could be seen Thursday resting upside down, half submerged.
Residents of the hard-hit neighborhood of al-Ghubra wandered along the banks of the temporary river, searching for their cars.
"I woke up today and my car was gone. I can't find it anywhere," said Humaid al-Harthi, 25, in a cream-colored dishdasha gown.
A few drivers desperate or foolhardy enough to drive across found themselves in rushing water up to their grilles. The crossing was the only entrance to an otherwise cut-off beachfront neighborhood.
Al-Harthi and other residents said it would take at least a year to restore the upper-class district.
Few doubt the city will regain its old polish.
Muscat is Oman's showcase capital _ the Geneva of the Middle East _ where the fastidious Sultan Qaboos has decreed that highways be swept daily and laws require homeowners to cover air conditioners with decorative boxes and wash their cars every two weeks.
In Gonu's wake, those homeowners were hauling soaked bedding and carpets from their concrete villas and piling it in the streets for the bulldozers busy clearing heaps of mud and rocks.
The massive cleanup was well under way as the sun popped out in the late afternoon and began drying Muscat off.
Workers with chain saws could be seen clearing downed trees while fleets of towtrucks went to work wrenching waterlogged cars and trucks from riverbeds.
Some sections of the city still lacked power and phone service a day after Gonu's eye had passed.
"I've never seen anything like this," al-Mashrafi said, a group of friends around him nodding solemnly. "But this is life. Anything can happen."

It has been 583 days since I last been home, I miss my family and friends. I miss my land and I miss my sand. I miss the beaches and I miss the sun, oh I miss everyone! I don't know when will I stop counting but god I wish if I was the one! I wish if I was the one who will go back to visit, to see their smile and feel the warmth between their arms. I don't even know how to approach my friends, god its been so long! Whenever I write them I end up not sending or canceling my message! O I just don't know what to say, its been so long and part of me is dead. Maybe they feel the same way, maybe they died on me too and maybe just maybe they wouldn't love the new me now!

Every time I think of going home, I push that idea far away! God I don't know how shock they will be, maybe after all I remained the same and they have changed!! I tried to get in touch with some of them but no answer on the telephone!!!! I remember the life I had back home, despite the bad side of it and the pain, there was a great deal of joy and pleasure. Yes I was a fighter, and yes I couldn't handle more of their crap thats why I turned my back on my own people. But that doesn't mean I stopped loving them, never ...

For 583 days I remembered what brought me here beside the education quest -well a girl had to come up with reasons for flying over- I remember what made me be the distanced girl who never showed up again not for a visit.

I always remember and laugh, sometimes alone and sometimes I pass the story along! Oh I miss you my homeland, I miss you so much. Miss stepping on the sand on my dad's villa, miss walking on the beach beside my Aunt villa and miss hanging out with friends who made me cry and laugh more times.

For 583 days am wondering of my visit back home, when will it be if ever ???? Now I pass cross some class mates who are dropping off summer semester to go visit their homeland and I then wonder "Sabra when will I get to visit???" ............... 586 days and I still wonder :-(

Awaaaaaaaaaaa I am facing a problem with my skate deck, the sticker is so thick and it allows air to create bubbles on the deck plus the colors peeled off I feel like killing some1. Will talk to Andrew tomorrow N see what he says meanwhile here is my skate deck sticker and the wood deck, I will upload my concept tomorrow :-) plus upload photos for my toy since Arab lady cant view it on flicker :p

A blank skate deck that I bought from Robby for $25 dollers ..



My final design printed on a sticker for $30 from Marko ..

A closer look at the size of both the sticker and the deck :-) ..


First I cut the extra line on the sticker ..

Oh my, I couldn't fix the bubbles problems on the edge!

Not only that but also the color started to peel off ~Eh Marko am gonna kill him~ but seriously he's hot lol :p

Well lets spary the deck with Acrylic Enamel paint spary to give it a great glossy finish, Marco said maybe then Andrew will give me extra marks ;) ~Finger Crossed~

Finishito am done and even though the bubbles r there yet still it looks like kinda cool :p (There is an Arabic saying that goes like "The Monkey looks like Gazelle in its mom eye" LOL ...

P.S:
ArabLady I will email u soon & thanks for writing me.. Am happy to make ur day.

Here is my toy concept, a fairy warrior.. I might add the wings or maybe not, will see how it goes.

We had an advertisement project for Joe class where we were suppose to design an ad for any product that would be used in a magazine!

As a big fan for make up and females beauty, I decided to design an ad for M·A·C Cosmetics for the spring collecetion of 2007.

Here is the picture I've used in its original format, I got it from stock exchan website :

And here is the file after I've modifided :

• I added different colors to her lips, eye shadow and eyes.
• I have modified her top hair by cutting it.
• I have deleted her shoulders and her hair on bottom.
• Selected the shades from her face to color my vector shapes.
• Added a layer of grid and cut her face selection.
• Took MAC logo and inverted it to match my backgroud color.
• The description text is from MAC website for spring 2007. The header white text and the one in red is my own.

I am so pissed off (Grrrrrrrrrr) !!!! I did my advertisement project but was not able to print it in a glossy paper (Am flat broke for 6$) and so Joe said he will deduct some marks just to show me that am wrong for handing it in a normal paper!!!!

Why is the system so corrupted !!!! Specially Seneca College students privileges!!! At Humber College, students get to print FREE 100 pages per month (Hey its their privilege!) but at Seneca we have to pay 10 cents PER NON-COLORED PAPER and 1Doller for Colored paper beside that if you want it on a glossy paper you ought to pay 5 bucks more....

I don't understand how they expect us to hand in a perfect job on our assignment and treating us as if we are employers in industry. Employers get paid to do their work or to print their work on a glossy paper but students on the other hand try as hard as possible to lend money from here and there to make our ends meet!

Now in case you don't get in line with the high quality of handed projects then you lose marks??? Why ??? Simply because your broke to pay 6dollers for a printing job!

I understand its the teacher right to request a paper type for a specific project but where is our student right to get these stuff at lowered price! And where is our right as students to get FREE printing jobs even if its limited by numbers!

At Newham Campus on third floor there is a class room that has a FREE colored and black/white printer for Fashion and General Ed. students .. Why can't we have such an option??? don't we meet on same soft wares ...

Eh got to demand a change at least if not for myself and my fellow students then for the new comers who will be more then delighted to enjoy their privilege of becoming a Senecian!
