My dear English expatriate families, I know that life can be difficult sometimes, being far away from your country and standing in the sidelines while Omanis struggle or achieve success. What can I say, that has not been already said to other groups? You arrived in this country before I was born, and some of you have lived longer than I have here. I know it’s a difficult burden on you, but you are the ambassadors of civilization here, and if speaking a word of Arabic does not provide you with comfort here, it’s because we as Omanis have failed you. Your fellow expatriates in other countries are your competitors: it’s up to you to be focused and achiever greater goals than them. A person feels so huffed and puffed and mighty when he realizes that reality as about to glaze his eyes with purpose. But what is it all for, if at the end of the line, we end up re-experiencing boredom? The only defence we have for such gazetteering is that was have no choice. For purpose, when it avails itself, must be seized, allowing the remainder of the time to be used for slumber when nothing can be done. You have rubbed the lamp, now your wish is my command.

  One wonders how the journeys of the anglosaxons to the shores of England must have been like. It is doubtful to have been easy, and despite the lacuna in our knowledge on the matter, maybe studying the reasons behind it more would be useful. It is impossible to build the future without utilizing the past. Truly, it is impossible, for every invention, for it to be useful, needs to find a contemporarily unused word that had its time in the past. There is a datalistic reason for that, for nobody will take you seriously if you come up with a word that neither a god nor an ant can relate to, let alone a person. One wonders whether reading hieroglyphs is a sin or not. Given the Islamic and iconoclastic reservation about looking at images, it should be like procreation for humanity, done only if it prevents annihilation, but avoided otherwise. But not all hieroglyphs are sinful, and some are more honorable than others. To balance the past with the future, let us come up with this compro...

Sit down, noble Jaffarite, and ask yourself, just what are you scared of, when even the birds outside are rarely chirping? The prophet rang his city’s warning bell to tell people to heed their sins. To this end we submit a post, blessing people to feel glorified by their virtues. If making a rial for an hour’s worth of accomplishment feels great, then how much more would be a bit of praise, or attention, for a lifetimes of service? That is celestial in it’s magnificence, extraordinary in its simplicity, and melodramatic in its harmony. We said it before, and we’ll say it again: The Jaffaria is the earth, in microcosm. No office will be barred from a friendly visit by a military or police officer, no classroom out of the reach of the medic when needed. We are an infinitude of oneness, letting cats make the headlines if they seem unhappy to effectively manage their peace and assimilation. I respect you, ma’am, for you are the guardian angel of my city, your male counterpart it’s warden,...

Obviously, wealth is how much information you have in your mind. This might seem like a trivial task, but the simple fact of the matter is that it takes great effort to create the environment that enables you to be an effective and maximal absorber of knowledge or information. And what is the different between knowledge and information? Information is generally speaking data that is useful in it’s own right, or at least that is intelligible, whereas knowledge is information that is more dense, and has more experiential events related to it. There can be information without knowledge, but there can’t be knowledge without information. It is interesting to see if machines will ever be able to process knowledge, as opposed to simply data or information, as that would be the dawn of consciousness for them. We live in a digitalist world, for that is more interconnected to emotional contentment than the capitalist one, which creates a life that is unsustainably peaceful not just for a communi...
