Doha Debate  - the Marriage of first cousins

family marriage from The Doha Debates on Vimeo.

 The Doha Debates  threw themselves into one of the Arab world's most sensitive social issues, arguing the rights and wrongs of inter- marriage between blood relatives and voting overwhelmingly to discourage the practice.

In a lively session that featured geneticists and cultural commentators, speakers grappled repeatedly with the scientific and religious aspects of consanguineous marriage - the union of two biologically-related people, including, most controversially, first cousins.

It was raining at night with thunders and lightnings then in the morning it is raining silently ...
We felt terribly tired the night before and everybody went to sleep much earlier than usual ...Such days happen only 10 times a year or less often ...The rainiest period  what I saw here was in December 2006 during the Asian  Games ... then it was raining cats and dogs ....
I just wanted to have a cup of usual hot drink when I saw that my usual place was closed down by health authorities for " non compliance with regulations "

I hate to think of the meaning of that .Croaches ? Mice ?

I do not wish anything to drink . Thank You !

I do not see any advertisement for the marine festival this year .
Can it be cancelled ? Due to the sad events in Syria ?
On the other hand there are more and more promising sings that Doha will be a more entertaining place than ever . Somewhere near the Post Office a New Park is being built .On the fences of the construction one can see graphic images of the park which seem to be wonderful ones . The park comes with swimming pools .
The entertainment complex for single workers is also a promising sign .It is great step for the social harmony .It has four cinema halls ,more than 300 commercial outlets ,cricket stadium .They will be able to eat out , shop and find fun without fear . That is for them .
And the man woman ratio inside the city won't seem to be as bad if only families are coming to the malls .
