Dear readers,
I am currently working on my final project for one of my MBA courses (Contemporary Management), and the subject is “Talent Management”.
To fulfill the project requirements, I am requested to get at least 100 person to fill a questionnaire I prepared about talent management on this link.
Filling out the survey will take less than 5 minutes, and I would really appreciate your help! 🙂
P.S: You shuld be working in the Lebanese market.
Someday I will probably crash my car because of Ellina Lingerie, they keep on posting highly distracting billboards for me!
I used to see the above billboard everytime I went to the mountains passing by Arayya, on one of the hard right turns. Last weekend I noticed they replaced it with the one below advising me to keep my eyes on the road. But what can I do if I can’t keep my eyes off you Ellina??!!!
Seriously, it’s a weapon of mass distraction! 😛

If you spot a guy with a big cam in his hand at any of these locations, there’s a probability it would be me!
I was in Zahleh yesterday and I encountered this at the entrance of the Berdawni.
Fi shi bi 3a2el, w shi bala 3a2l, hay masalan bala 3a2el!
Does the chinese make fake balloons? or does the italian make ones that last longer?
Wanna contribute in making history? If you live in Montreal, then here’s your chance!
Tollab, a federation that unites all the Lebanese student associations of Montreal, are planning to set a world records on the 20th of June by forming the biggest Dabke chain that will place Montreal in the Guinness Book of records. Their aim is to gather at least 3,500 people at the Marcelin-Wilson Park on the 20th of June to dance the dabke, hand-in-hand, for at least 5 consecutive minutes.
This event will be part of the “Festival Libanais de Montreal” from 19 to 21 of June 2009 at the park located in “11301 Bd de l’Acadie”.
Keep in mind that this event is not exclusively for the Lebanese living in Montreal, so regardless of your nationality you can participate in setting the world record, as the main purpose of the event is to unite all Lebanese and Montrealers of all colors, religions, names or cultures, who are willing to participate.
Forming the chain will start at 7:30PM on June 20th, so make sure to show up beforehand if you’re willing to participate in otder to organize things well.
For more information, you can refer to the even’t page on Facebook, or Tollab’s website.
After Jounblat and Arslan’s videos, it’s Michael El-Murr’s turn! In the below video you can hear Michael El-Murr threatening a priest in Metn and admitting that he paid bribery, in addition to illegally using the authority of his son Elias El-Murr in the ministry of defense.
I stumbled upon this photo few minutes ago on Facebook.
The paper says:
Shit upon you and this elections, “Banana Republic”
Signature: A good citizen
And who rule the Banana Republic? Monkeyyys! 😀
So it’s June 7th, the elections day! I went to two areas in the morning, Tarik Al-Jadida and Karantina.
Tarik Al-Jadida was a living hell, people were everywhere around the polling stations, and it took the lady with me around 1 hour and 30 minutes to cast her ballot. On the other hand, it took me 5 minutes to get in and out at the Karantina polling station, and I got back with these photos (You can click to enlarge)

People gathering outside one of the Future Movement stations in Tarik Al-Jadida
One of the Future Movement ladies giving me a bottle of water while saying
These two boys thought I’m a journalist (due to my big size cam!) they told me they will be waiting for their image to appear on TV tonight! I said OK!
Yet another Future Movement station
This is a polling station at Karantina, no traffic jam there.
On the way back, Charles Helou road was almost empty
Chales Helou road again
I wish I was able to take more photos but I was driving at the same time! Not to mention that it is somehow difficult to take photos while army, bodyguards, and internal security forces are all around you!
Anyway, in addition to these photos, I also filmed the whole voting process using my cell phone!! (Illegal??) And I will try to upload it as soon as I can.
I couldn’t but post this photo! “Je suis belle et je vote orange”, mish ghalat 😛
