Joke of the Day -- Coca Cola Salesman's Marketing Strategy in Saudi Arabia

A distressed and disappointed salesperson of Coca Cola came back from Saudi Arabia after a failed campaign to report to the headquarters.

A friend of him asked, “Why weren’t you successful with Saudis?”

The salesperson already upset with the situation replied, “When I Got posted there in Saudi Arabia, I was confident to make good grounds to achieve the sales target.”

“Then what did actually went wrong”, his friend asked curiously.

“The first and major problem for me was the language, as I didn’t know how to speak or interact in Arabic”, salesperson continued his tragic story. “Therefore, I planned to convey the message through a picture story, easily understandable for the Saudis.”

“That was really an ideal plan in the situation you were in”, his friend appreciated. “But what was the actual plan and I’m surprised why it didn’t work”, he was still confused.

Poster 1..............................................Poster 2..........................................Poster3

Salesperson said, “The whole plan comprised of three posters. The first one showing that a man was lying in the hot desert sand totally exhausted and fainting. The second one the man was shown as drinking Coca Cola and the third poster showing the man refreshed and energized after drinking Coca Cola.”

“That was really nice and workable idea, that certainly should have worked” his friend wanted him to finish quickly.

“The hell it should have!” said the salesperson. “No one told me they read from right to left!”

Why You Need Your Ex Back -- Real World Tips to Win Back Your Ex

The end of a relationship can be very painful for both the partners involved. Unfortunately, this is a common occurrence and most people will experience at least one breakup during the course of their lives. In some cases, the split may not be mutual and one member of the couple will want a reconciliation. The following paragraphs offer a how to get your ex back guide.

Get Your Ex Back

Before trying to reconcile with your ex partner, ask yourself why you want them back. You need to be absolutely clear in your own mind that this is what you really want before pursuing them.

After the breakup, do not be tempted to continually text and ring your ex. Do not suddenly appear in places you know they will be. Give that person the opportunity to miss you, and your company. This will give you time to consider what went wrong with the relationship.

Did you take that person for granted, or did they take you for granted. Did you ignore their complaints about the relationship, or, did they ignore yours. If the relationship were to be rekindled, how would you change, how would you want them to change.

Try also to remember why that person first felt attracted to you, what they loved about you. Also ask yourself what you loved about them, what attracted you to them. When you have the answers to these questions, particularly, the ones about how you felt, where you might have gone wrong, it is time to arrange a meeting. Or, write a letter.

If writing a letter, highlight the areas in the relationship which you think you could have handled better, show that you have learnt from mistakes. Do not try to second guess your ex, ask them their opinion. Make the letter a two way process of communication, which they can respond to. If you meet with them, try to convey what you would have put in the letter.

Using a how to get your ex back guide may involve asking some probing questions of yourself. The ability to communicate well and unpick relationship problems is paramount.

Eid-ul-Fitr, is a Muslim holiday that marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting. Eid is an Arabic word meaning “festivity”, while Fitr means “charity” and so the holiday symbolises the breaking of the fasting period.

Eid-ul-Fitr 2011 (1432 AH): Happy Eid to All -- Short Video Documentary About Eid al-Fitr

Eid ul-Fitr is one of the most significant festivals among the Muslims. It marks the end of the month of Ramazan also known as Ramadan, the month of fasting. In Arabic language Eid means festivity. Eid ul-Fitr means Festival of Breaking the Fast. This festival falls on the first day of the month of Shawwal, which is the tenth month according to the Islamic Calendar.

Eid ul-Fitr 2011 (1432 AH)

Eid ul Fitr is a unique festival. It has no connection with any historical event nor is it related to the changes of seasons or cycles of agriculture. It is not a festival related in any way to worldly affairs. Its significance is purely spiritual. It is the day when the Muslims thank Allah (SWT) for having given them the will, the strength and the endurance to observe fast and obey His commandment during the holy month of Ramadan.

Hazrat Anas (ra), a companion of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) reported that when the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) migrated from Makkah to Madinah, the people of Madinah used to have two festivals. On those two days they had carnivals and festivity. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) asked the Ansaar (the Muslims of Madinah) about it. They replied that before Islam they used to have carnivals on those two joyous days. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) told them: 'Instead of those two days, Allah has appointed two other days which are better, the days of Eid-al-Fitr and Eid-al-Adha.' (Hadith)

On the other hand; the Islamic Crescent Observation Project (ICOP) is expecting that Eid-ul-Fitr this year will be celebrated in most of the Muslim countries on August 31 (Wednesday), a UAE-based newspaper reported. Although ICOP excluded few Muslim countries from this assumption based on the starting of Ramadan in these countries on August 1, including some countries in the Middle East, north and central Asia and northern Africa; but even then most of the Muslims will be celebrating Eid ul-Fitr on the same day, Wednesday (August 31).

Picture/Photo Gallery: Amazing Hand Painting (Handimals) by Guido Daniele

Amazing Hand Painting (Handimals) by Guido Daniele

The Hand Paintings in the gallery below, dubbed "Handimals", are created by exceptionally talented Italian artist, Guido Daniele.

Guido Daniele was born in Soverato (CZ - Italy) and now lives and works in Milan.

From 1964 to 1968 he attended Brera artistic High School. He graduated from Brera School of Arts (major in sculpturing) in 1972.

He lived in India since 1972 to 1974 where he attended the Tankas school in Dharamsala.

Guido Daniele first got the idea of painting on human hands after an advertising agency hired him to do some body paintings of animals. After researching how best to paint animals onto hands he created his first ‘‘handimal’’, that of the cheetah, shown above. Daniele notes that the hardest part is watching his creations being washed down the drain at the end of the painting day.

In 1990 he added a new artistic experience to his previous ones: using the body painting technique. He creates and paints models’ bodies for different situations such as advertising pictures and commercials, fashion events and exhibitions. His personal artistic research has recently led him to the combination of the two traditional portrait techniques, which are photography and oil painting, laid on photographic support in the same way as Jan Saudek.

Shandur Polo Festival, Chitral - - History and Background of the Game of Kings

Polo - - The King of Games and The Game of Kings

Polo in Pakistan:

The sport of free style polo had its beginnings in Baltistan Northern Area of Pakistan. Baltistan's princely kingdoms adopted the sport and made it their own, with their natural proclivity for riding. Kingdoms kept special stables for polo ponies, and their teams included among the very best in the world. Very often, the players were the rulers and members of their families, though their armies also encouraged the sport. In fact, if the sport has a presence in the country today, it is because the former royal families have continued to provide encouragement for it.

Polo continues, as it has done for so long, to represent the pinnacle of sport, and reaffirms the special bond between horse and rider. The feelings of many of its players are epitomized by a famous verse inscribed on a stone tablet next to a polo ground in Gilgit, Pakistan: "Let others play at other things. The king of games is still the game of kings."

History of Polo:

Polo is possibly the oldest recorded team sport in known history, with the first matches being played in Persia over 2500 years ago. Initially thought to have been created by competing tribes of Central Asia, it was quickly taken up as a training method for the King’s elite cavalry. These matches could resemble a battle with up to 100 men to a side.

As mounted armies swept back and forth across this part of the world, conquering and re-conquering, polo was adopted as the most noble of pastimes by the Kings and Emperors, Shahs and Sultans, Khans and Caliphs of the ancient Persians, Arabs, Mughals, Mongols and Chinese. It was for this reason it became known across the lands as "the game of kings".

British officers themselves re-invented the game in 1862 after seeing a horsemanship exhibition in Manipur, India. The sport was introduced into England in 1869, and seven years later sportsman James Gordon Bennett imported it to the United States. After 1886, English and American teams occasionally met for the International Polo Challenge Cup. Polo was on several Olympic games schedules, but was last an Olympic sport in 1936.

Valentine's Day 2011 - - The Reality of Valentine's Day in Historical, Traditional and Religious Terms

Valentine's Day - - History, Traditions and Religious Views

What is Valentine's Day??

Valentine's Day is a celebration of romantic love occurring annually on February 14.

Although it is associated by legend with a Catholic saint named Valentine, Valentine's Day is not a religious holiday and never really has been. Valentine's Day has historical roots mainly in Greco-Roman pagan fertility festivals and the medieval notion that birds pair off to mate on February 14.

The custom of exchanging cards and other tokens of love on February 14 began to develop in England and France in the 14th and 15th centuries and became especially popular in the United States in the 19th and 20th centuries. Over the last decade or so, Valentine's Day observance has even spread to the Far East, India, and the Middle East.

History of Valentine's Day

The association of the middle of February with love and fertility dates to ancient times. In ancient Athens, the period between mid-January and mid-February was the month of Gamelion, which was dedicated to the sacred marriage of Zeus and Hera.

In ancient Rome, February 15 was Lupercalia, the festival of Lupercus (or Faunus), the god of fertility. As part of the purification ritual, the priests of Lupercus would sacrifice goats and a dog to the god, and after drinking wine, they would run through the streets of Rome striking anyone they met with pieces of the goat skin. Young women would come forth voluntarily for the occasion, believing that being touched by the goat skin would render them fertile. Young men would also draw names from an urn, choosing their "blind date" for the coming year. In 494 AD the Christian church under Pope Gelasius I appropriated the some aspects of the rite as the Feast of the Purification.

In Christianity, at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of them martyrs, are mentioned in the early lives of the saints under the date of February 14. Two of the Valentines lived in Italy in the third century: one as a priest at Rome, the other as bishop of Terni. They are both said to have been martyred in Rome and buried on the Flaminian Way. A third St. Valentine was martyred in North Africa and very little else is known of him.

Several legends have developed around one or more of these Valentines, two of which are especially popular. According to one account, Emperor Claudius II outlawed marriage for all young men because he believed unmarried men made better soldiers. Valentine defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young couples and was put to death by the emperor for it. A related legend has Valentine writing letters from prison to his beloved, signing them "From your Valentine."

However, the connection between St. Valentine and romantic love is not mentioned in any early histories and is regarded by historians as purely a matter of legend. The feast of St. Valentine was first declared to be on February 14 by Pope Gelasius I around 498. It is said the pope created the day to counter the practice held on Lupercalia, but this is not attested in any sources from that era.

The first recorded association of St. Valentine's Day with romantic love was in the 14th century in England and France, where it was believed that February 14 was the day on which birds paired off to mate. Thus we read in Geoffrey Chaucer's (c. 1343-1400) Parliament of Fowls, believed to be the first Valentine's Day poem:

For this was on saint Valentine's day,
When every fowl comes there to choose his mate.

It became common during that era for lovers to exchange notes on Valentine's Day and to call each other their "Valentines." The first Valentine card was sent by Charles, duke of Orleans, to his wife in 1415 when he was a prisoner in the Tower of London. Valentine's Day love notes were often given anonymously. It is probable that many of the legends about St. Valentine developed during this period (see above). By the 1700s, verses like "Roses are red, violets are blue" became popular. By the 1850s, romantics in France began embellishing their valentine cards with gilt paper, ribbons and lace.

Valentine's Day was probably imported into North America in the 19th century with settlers from Britain. In the United States, the first mass-produced valentines of embossed paper lace were produced and sold shortly after 1847 by Esther A. Howland (1828 - 1904) of Worcester, Massachusetts. Her father operated a large book and stationery store, and she took her inspiration from an English valentine she had received.

In the 19th century, relics of St. Valentine were donated by Pope Gregory XVI to the Whitefriar Street Carmelite Church in Dublin, Ireland, which has become a popular place of pilgrimage on February 14.

But in 1969, as part of a larger effort to pare down the number of saint days of legendary origin, the Church removed St. Valentine's Day as an official holiday from its calendar.
