  • Tamanna & Le Mall grant Charlie a trip to Barcelona

    There was clapping and cheering, laughter and blushing faces. Moukarzel’s mother and father wiped away tears and smiles broke across their faces. Moukarzel is going on a free trip to Barcelona to watch his favorite team and favorite player Lionel Messi.

    Moukarzel is a passionate Barcelona fan: He has memorized Barcelona’s games and Messi’s goals. Moukarzel is also afflicted with a chronic, degenerative disease that has him wheelchair bound and robbed of his normal speech. His prognosis is grim.

    A group that helps children with critical illnesses, Tamanna, asked Moukarzel last month what he wanted to do above anything else. He said he wanted to see Messi play.

    “Is there anything else?” they asked. “Messi,” he repeated. Just Messi. Source

  • Talk about transparency

    So Alfa Telecom ran a competition for two tickets to attend ArabNet Beirut, and guess who were the winners? Two of their employees!

    Alfa

    Thank you @chemali

    Update:

    After receiving so much tweets about the issue, Alfa ended up disqualifying one of the winners, Chafi Maalouf, since he’s an Alfa employee. On the other hand, the other guy didn’t turn out to be one of their employees.

  • Al-Joumhouria reporting 11 year old news

    aljoumhouria

    We will probably earn yet another Guinness world record with Al-Joumhouria reporting about an 11 year old news!

    Check this article published on Al-Joumhouria website yesterday about a girl that was raped by 4 men in Pakistan, and then check the original story on CNN dated July 6th 2002. This is a first I think eh?
