Hello Michael, Thanks for the latest edition of EEK - I have yet to read it. However, I thought I'd respond to your comment about the butterflies [we wrote about the thousands we saw out in Kuwait City, Ed.]. I don't know the type but I have seen this phenomenon before - it seems to happen in cycles although I can't quite remember the last time it was the turn of the butterflies. In the past (I've lived in and out of Kuwait since the 1980s) I have also seen swarms of ladybirds and locusts, not, I hasten to add, in the same year! I particularly remember the locusts because I was out on a field trip with a class of children at the time. The ladybirds, like the butterflies, are delightful I'm afraid I can't say the same for the locusts! Interestingly enough, I was watching OSN news yesterday and heard that the east coast of USA is preparing for an onslaught of cicadas which only come out every 17 years - there will be billions of them and, apparently, the noise level will be equal to a rock concert! I guess we can be grateful for small mercies and the gentle, beautiful and SILENT butterflies fluttering around us! Enjoy your weekend. Regards, Odette
Does anybody know what kind of butterfly this is, and add more to Odettes delightful report (left).

In addition to his captive opening email address, Ryan Buist - above, with fellow research Scouts sent us this stunning initial report titled Seagrass Decimation in Doha Port. Read on
Why are Seagrasses important? Seagrass provides many benefits to Marine Ecosystems and the environment as a whole. The habitats created by seagrass meadows help improve the diversity and number of marine animals. Seagrass meadows on reef flats and near estuaries act as nutrient sinks, adding to or filtering nutrient and chemical inputs into marine ecosystems. Seagrass also helps to stabilise coastalsediments, helping clear the water and

improving water quality. These meadows also provide food and shelter for many organisms and act as a nursery ground for prawn and fish species that are commercially important. I am a 14 year old Kiwi (New Zealander), studying at the Kuwait English School and a member of Boy Scouts of America Troop 965. I am currently leading a project to fulfil a requirement
for the Eagle Scout rank. My project will try to find out what seagrasses still exist in Kuwait and to raise awareness of their importance to the worlds oceans. Seagrass Watch HQ, an international organisation trying to protect the 6 known species of seagrass, supplied me with some data they had received about the two species found in Kuwait

I am working on a project...
EEK! gets this amazing email from one of our younger readers...
general shellfish that live among the algae and seagrass meadows have died due to pollution of the Gulf. In addition, there is evidence of the overpopulation of another species that feeds predominantly on the algae thus choking off the food available for the other shellfish. Also, families go out onto the intertidal zone, taking all sizes of mollusks, destroying the population balance. It is truly a sad sight to see.
I will be conducting two further surveys of sites on the Southern coastline and will be reporting my findings stay tuned! Ryan Buist

Seems Dr. John Hayes is quite a popular fella in town. Yea. So, he does magic with his stunning series on business and franchising right here on EEK!s pages, then goes and starts the Kuwait Leadership Mastery (KLM article EEK! issue #2 April 2013), and now this! Check out 248AMs response (left, we agree, stunner line there from The Doc) Published in Kuwait Times and soon on our pages as well - a killer series on the blogosphere in Kuwait.
And why is this so hot? Well, because hit by hit Kuwait has one of the highest ratios of residents vs blogger in the universe. Easy. So the questions is, de we really nee.oooooh-kaaaay. Noooo, we wont even speculate or comment. Why dont you sit closer and read Dr. Hayes articles over the next couple of weeks. Folks, this is going to get interesting.

There are, so far, 396 bird species recorded in Kuwait, or so we think. The number may have changed today with a new species discovered by some dedicated birdwatcher an hour ago. So, by the time the "Birds of Kuwait: A comprehensive visual guide" was presented last September, the autumn migration had started for the birds of the Western Palearctic (*) and, just days after the book's official "opening" at the luxurious KUFPEC** Headquarters, four more species were discovered by the amazing amateur birders in Kuwait. Maybe this spring migration will reveal more...
Having a book like this is a good, updated baseline: We now KNOW and SEE, in absolutely stunning photography of 36 photographers, 18 of whom Kuwait-based or Kuwaiti nationals, which birds visit Kuwait, which ones live here, where they hang out and what their international status is. And putting all this info together wasn't easy: In only nine months from the birth of its concept, the book was delivered to its sponsors in 1500 copies. In the meantime, photographers of several nationalities were consulted, character differences and opinions were revealed (because
all birders, all over the world, are extremely passionate regarding... what else? Their passion. Have you watched last year's Hollywood movie "A Good Year"? This is exactly IT!).

Ladies and gentlemen were in party attire as they attended the CUP CAKES & HIGH HEELS event which took place at THE ONE Tea Lounge Caf in Salmiya on the 18th March 2013. The High Society Fashion event included a touch of elegance a mix of style and the scandalous affair between 19 year old Kuwaiti fashion designer Ali Al Saad, celebrated makeup artist Jihad Salmassi and Hair stylist Abeer from Dazzle Beauty Salon. The results had the guests whispering, talking and gossiping. Selections of Ms. Tiffanis Jewellery pieces were also on display.
THE ONE Cafe served the guests a selection of canaps, teas and of course mouth watering cupcakes, scones and cream. Hotel Missoni Six Senses Spa awarded the prize for the most stylish lady of the evening as well as donating two spa gift vouchers; guests also received gifts from THE ONE Salmiya and Tea Gschwendner .

IAmJester.Com is a website that wants you to play! In a world where people have become so disconnected and immersed in their technology, the founder of IAmJester.com wanted to bring back old school board games in the hopes of getting people interacting and playing together again! What is IAmJester.Com exactly and how does it work? IAmJester.Com is an online store that sells board games,and delivers them to you within 2 hours. The idea is that whenever you are sitting with friends or family and youre bored, instead of turning on the TV or picking up your phones, you order a game and play it together. The process is pretty simple, you go onto the website where you see the selection of games avail-
able, place your order and voila! To help you choose we have also made it so you can filter the games by recommended age, number of players, play duration or genre. Whats with the weird name? Well I always get asked this question, why call a website I Am Jester? The name came from wanting the concept to be an interactive experience, you are not visiting a website you are visiting Jester,whose sole purpose is to entertain people and bring joy. So far the reaction has been pretty good; people have fun interacting with Jester through his Twitter and Instagram accounts. Does IAmJester.Com also throw game nights? Yes we have done three so far, all of which have been a blast! People come and play the games, meet other people and have a good time. Whenever we are having one, we announce it on Twitter and Instagram so be sure to follow us if you are interested.

No no sir, really, just take the card from the internet connection and put it in your mobile phone. Sometimes they lose the signal, but if you put them in the phone the signal is there you can see it. This is how I was told how stupid I am for believing for one second that my internet was not working. How could I?! Lets see, internet speed red arrow up 0.04 KB/s, green arrow downuuuuhp, there now its 0.00KBs OK, lets Disconnect again.wait a few secondsaaaaand Connect againOK, OK, now its green arrow down 1.44KB/s - CHECK - Googles page does not open (LOL never mind CNNs!) - CHECK a single 23kb photo in a classified ad does not open - CHECK - the signal strength bar on our connection strength indicator shows 5/5 bars, thats good isnt it - CHECK weve restarted our machine three times now - CHECK weve tried the internet connection on our, and on a visitors laptop - CHECK and urmmm, no luck right? RIGHT! So then folks, why, why, whyyyy would the technician on the other end tell us to put our internet connection card into a mobile phone to catch the signal again?!!!!! COME. ON. WE. ARE. NOT. THAT STOOPID! After calming down we politely ask for a ticket number, you know, the number against which our complaint or technical query has been posted. No no sir you see there is no problem on our side, you must fix it on your side. So we said my dear habibi, listen, weve had this problem a few times before, are you sure about your facts, will the phone trick fix it? To which followed must be. OK, we do the card swop change thing. Signal, as before, is great. We wait 7 minutes (supposedly this helps the card to grab and then hold the signal?) and we put it back, try to connect to the internet, and low and behofalse alarm? YupNO INTERNET CONNECTION. :) So, were asking you, have you also had connection problems lately? Because the last CHECK we have for you, for two straight days running (14 and 15 April) we had virtually zero internet. We had stunning signal though! Are there others out there in EEK!land who have this internet problem? If you have a second to spare, please write us and tell us about your internet non-connectivity issues. Oh, and of the level of non-support you got from the help desk. (You HAVE to wonder what ever happens to those recorded phone conversations that could be used for training purposes?)

Well well wel...another earthquake shakes Kuwait, this time a lot more tangible. Early reports and internet chat indicated a strong earthquake of 8.0 magnitude had reportedly struck Iran, near the border with Pakistan. The National Center of Meteorology and Seismology later confirmed an earthquake of 7.8 in magnitude had struck in Iran. Graphics & info: www.earthquakestoday.info

Hayes on Business
If Three Dog Night, once the most popular band in America, told us that One is the loneliest number. But in business, it may be the most dangerous number. Its one number that can put you out of business fast! Fact: You have one supplier for a product or service thats critical to your customers. If something happens to that supplier, what happens to your business? Will your customers wait until you find another supplier? Fact: You have one piece of equipment. It breaks down. What now? Your customers wont mind that you can't help them today, and maybe not for a month? Fact: You have one contact who can send more business your way whenever you need it. He falls out of grace and gets replaced. What now? Fact: You have one star sales person. She gets a better job. What now?

course there is the added reassurance of dealing with MBMC. Developed through a joint venture between Fiat and PSA, and manufactured at the Tofas plant in Bursa, Turkey, the Fiat Fiorino occupies a unique LCV segment, being the first ultra-compact vehicle to have been specifically designed for use in busy towns and cities. The rapid growth of e-commerce has led to a substantial increase in demand for small vans to deliver goods and services the last mile to homes and businesses. In this context, compact dimensions and outstanding manoeuvrability outweigh the need for excessive carrying capacities, said Bassam Shehab, Fleet Sales Manager at MBMC. With an overall length of only 3,864 mm and a turning circle (between kerbs) of just 9.95 metres, allied to a load capacity of 650 kg and a maximum load length of almost 2.5 metres, the Fiat Fiorino sets new standards in ultracompact urban van practicality - were delighted that Taw9eel.com chose the Fiat Fiorino, especially given the strong competition in its segment. Powered by a 1.4-litre 75 bhp petrol, the Fiorino offers strong performance, reliability and economy with the added benefit of environmental friendliness. Thanks to long service intervals and
Now available in Kuwait from Al Mulla and Behbehani Motor Co. W.L.L. (MBMC), the Fiat Fiorino - which won the Best Light Van Award in the 2012 Van Fleet World Honours -represents a whole new choice for the light van market thanks to its compact style, useful performance and exciting styling. Designed to be agile in urban surroundings, the new Fiorino is easy to park and highly economical to operate.
The Fiorino is already enjoying success in the Kuwaiti market, with MBMC recently completing a delivery of 14 Fiorinos to Taw9eel.com. Headquartered in Kuwait, with local offices in Riyadh, Cairo and Dubai, Taw9eel Group is one of the leading e-commerce groups in the Middle East. We operate the regions largest e-
commerce websites Taw9eel.com and Sheeel.com with delivery to 9 countries across the Arab world, said Frank Berger, Operations Manager at Taw9eel.com. We chose the Fiat Fiorino due to its capability, proven reliability, competitive pricing and low operating costs, all of which are vitally important factors to us especially when these vehicles will be delivering a 24 hour service throughout Kuwait.Plus, of

grees, and customers can specify either one or two sliding side doors. Every Fiorino version boasts a 1,046mm loading width between rear wheel arches, six strong, practical load securing rings and a robust nine-rung, steel ladder cab/ load compartment partition. With security in mind, the Fiat Fiorino also features separate front and rear door locking (so that the load area can be used with the cab locked), alarm and a deadlock that disables the doors interior handle. The Fiorino is the latest addition to the revitalised Fiat Professional range, which aims to build sales and market share both in Kuwait and throughout the Middle East region over the next few years. the arrangement of some engine components, maintenance or repair times are considerably reduced, thus making it very cost effective to run.The 1.4 litre 16V 4-cylinder engine is coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox and produces 75 bhp and 118 Nm of torque, returning fuel consumption figures of 6.3l/100km, with low noise and vibration levels. At just 3.86 metres in length, the new Fiorino van offers surprising interior dimensions, with a capacity of 2.5 m3. This can be increased to 2.8 m3 and the working length expanded to 2.5 metres courtesy of a fold away passenger seat. A range of safety equipment, including ABS antilock brakes with EBD, three-point seat belts with pretensioner, load limiter and drivers airbag, all come as standard. A passenger airbag and rear parking sensors are also available. The Fiorinos comprehensive passenger and load protection features also include high energy absorbing areas around the drivers compartment, while large bumpers offer protection at low speed and are easily removed for minimum repair costs. The Fiat Professional range has already made a major impact in the Kuwait fleet market - the range of competitively priced, strong and reliable products available through MBMC also includes the Doblo and Ducato as well as the Fiorino - were currently developing a number of very promising deals with a number of other major corporations in Kuwait and are very excited about these new additions to our range, said Shehab.
The operational capability of the Fiorino range can be further enhanced through a choice of one or two sliding doors, foldable front passenger seat, panelled bulkhead with or without glass partition, removable loading area light with torch function, longitudinal roof bars, etc. For ease of loadspace access, the load threshold is just 527 mm high. The full-height, asymmetrical (60/40) rear doors can be opened through both 90 and (via retractable tie-rods) 180 de

Kevins last team was the Homerhawks, and the defenseman has been a nice addition to the Mooseheads for the last two years.
Kevin DeRonde is a sophomore Moosehead who hails from Albany, New York. This is the home of the AHLs River Rats, who own the greatest jerseys in the league. Kevin works for the U.S. State Department, but might have to play hooky from work if his beloved Washington Capitals actually make the playoffs this year. Although Alexander Semin is no longer a Capital, he was part of Kevins favorite hockey memory as he fought Marc Staal. Kevins favorite player is Capital Brooks Laich (a Canadian), who is an alternate captain for the division leaders.

Every now-and-again we get mails from buyers and sellers telling us about their experiences with sellers and buyers, respectively. Allow us to make a few comments which we feel are important to note: 1) EEK! does NOT get involved in the interaction between buyers and sellers. 2) Refer to 1) above. 3) Note to buyers; once youve made arrangements with the seller, get your business done as soon as possible. The seller - and allow us to use these words ( :) - could not care less about whatever situations you may have. Weve seen this time and again, regardless of your arrangements, sellers mostly tend to have a first come first serve attitude (for many good reasons!). 4) Cash is king. When the seller has heres youre KD50 for that TV vs. let me get some money and Ill be back, the aforementioned will always get the deal...ok, lets say in most cases. 5) In four years we have NEVER seen anything on these pages sold with a warrantee - dont expect one and if possible check and see if the goods youre buying are in working order! 6) Pick up your purchases ASAP. Once youve paid your money, the seller is absolved of all responsibility. 7) Once the seller has left the country, dont expect much support from him/her about stuff you bought and are now locked up in their old empty apartment and the harris does not want to release it etc etc. 8) Refer to 1) above...yes, again, please. :))
EEK! wants to thank you for your active participation in our classifieds section. To make it work even better for all of us, consider the following: 1) EEK! has the final decision on whether an ad gets published...or not. 2) We provide absolutely NO guarantee whatsoever that the advertised items will sell. They may. Price your items right, weve rarely seen real collectables for sale! :) 3) Never ever expect EEK! to go out according to your house sale date or time a.k.a. send your sales listing in ten days or more before your sale starts. 4) We will not send out a listing as a separate email if you missed that weeks issue. 5) We try to keep a listing in for two weeks, dont expect to have your ad in the next 12 issues of EEK! 6) Mark your email clearly with CLASSIFIED SALES or HOUSE SALE, or CAR FOR SALE or something similar in your emails SUBJECT LINE. 7) EEK! never gets involved in the transaction or negotiation of advertised goods. 8) We will not send the ad as placed in the e-mag to the advertiser to get approval on the layout...never ever.
