Oman Quotes

A grim expression came over Syah’s face. “The colt you speak of lost its mother during a storm. If this stallion was that colt, it is not just wild, it is insane. That horse will break your bones.” “And that will be a worthy end, a prince struck down by such a noble steed.” Fasime pushed himself off the support of the fence, but Oman grabbed his arm. “It’s not worth it, Brother.” “I can tame him.” “What will we tell Mother and Father if he kills you?” Oman questioned. “Tell them I gave my life with pride. Do not punish him if he kills me. Release him back into the wild, and my spirit will ride him into the mist.

Wisdom is really the key to wealth. With great wisdom, comes great wealth and success. Rather than pursuing wealth, pursue wisdom. The aggressive pursuit of wealth can lead to disappointment. Wisdom is defined as the quality of having experience, and being able to discern or judge what is true, right, or lasting. Wisdom is basically the practical application of knowledge. Rich people have small TVs and big libraries, and poor people have small libraries and big TVs. Become completely focused on one subject and study the subject for a long period of time. Don't skip around from one subject to the next. The problem is generally not money. Jesus taught that the problem was attachment to possessions and dependence on money rather than dependence on God. Those who love people, acquire wealth so they can give generously. After all, money feeds, shelters, and clothes people. They key is to work extremely hard for a short period of time (1-5 years), create abundant wealth, and then make money work hard for you through wise investments that yield a passive income for life. Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand. Failure is success if we learn from it. Continuing failure eventually leads to success. Those who dare to fail miserably can achieve greatly. Whenever you pursue a goal, it should be with complete focus. This means no interruptions. Only when one loves his career and is skilled at it can he truly succeed. Never rush into an investment without prior research and deliberation. With preferred shares, investors are guaranteed a dividend forever, while common stocks have variable dividends. Some regions with very low or no income taxes include the following: Nevada, Texas, Wyoming, Delaware, South Dakota, Cyprus, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Panama, San Marino, Seychelles, Isle of Man, Channel Islands, Curaçao, Bahamas, British Virgin Islands, Brunei, Monaco, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Bermuda, Kuwait, Oman, Andorra, Cayman Islands, Belize, Vanuatu, and Campione d'Italia. There is only one God who is infinite and supreme above all things. Do not replace that infinite one with finite idols. As frustrated as you may feel due to your life circumstances, do not vent it by cursing God or unnecessarily uttering his name. Greed leads to poverty. Greed inclines people to act impulsively in hopes of gaining more. The benefit of giving to the poor is so great that a beggar is actually doing the giver a favor by allowing the person to give. The more I give away, the more that comes back. Earn as much as you can. Save as much as you can. Invest as much as you can. Give as much as you can.

Thus, an Indian father’s determination to protect his beloved daughter led to the demise of the Portuguese in Oman. In

Kansanedustajien on turha itkeä arvostuksen ja kunnioituksen puutetta. Ne on itse lianneet oman pesänsä ja tuhonneet täysin eduskunnan arvovallan.

Desdemona oli tottunut näkemään heidän siamilaisvarjonsa iltaisin vasten valkeaksi kalkittua talonseinää, ja aina kohdatessaan vain oman varjonsa hänestä tuntui kuin se olisi halkaistu kahtia.

Wherever Mohammedanism has taken root, it has led at first to rapid and enthusiastic outbursts of vigor, but it seems gradually to sap the energy of the nations which adopt it, and leads, after a

Kaupunkilaiset ja nuoriso elävät toista aikaa, kaikki alle seitsemänkymmentävuotiaat. Sen ajan nimi on kiire. Joka on oman pään keksintö. Kärsimättömyydeksi sellaista pitäisi sanoa. Joka taas on sitä että ihmiset eivät malta kärsiä vaikka kyllä kannattaisi. Kärsimyksen jälkeen pienikin helpotus tuntuu hyvältä. Mutta kun kaikki on koko ajan helppoa, niin mikään ei oikeastaan tunnu helpolta.

Monet uskovat, että voitto on saatu, kun jotakin on murskattu, tuhottu ja tapettu. Kuitenkin parhain voitto on yksilön voitto itsestään oman minuutensa suljetussa holvissa, ja hyvä saavutus on myös oivaltaa maailmankaikkeuden mahtava suuruus.

Reconciliation to the evanescent is revelation of the eternal.

I give thanks for the wise qualities of the evergreen trees that have stood by me this day: may you show me how my own heart can be evergreen and growing through winters of doubt and darkness.

Tyhjän paperin paino kirjoitusharteilla. Sanojen hampaat murenivat säryksi. Kun kävelet, kynsi painuu syvälle lihaan. Kaikesta mitä olet sanonut kasvaa torni. Sen alta näet vain oman rohinasi mustaa valkoisella.

Luovuustutkimuksen mukaan luovimmat lapset ovat enemmän vastakkaisen kuin oman sukupuolensa kaltaisia: luovat tytöt ovat rohkeita, aktiivisia ja maskuliinisia, luovat pojat taas feminiinisiä, herkkiä ja vastaanottavaisia.

Tanja Karpelan meriitit on siinä, että se on pyllistellyt lehdissä bikineissä, ajanut kännissä autoa, hajottanut oman perheensä, seurustellut pitkätukkaisen ja luotettavan liikemiehen Peter Nygårdin kanssa ja iskenyt rullaluistelija Sauli Niinistön.

Olisi valmis jättämään nuoren miehen ruumiin taakseen, mullan, jossa hän aika ajoin kylpi, kävi möyrimässä hautakiven edessä olevaa kukkapenkkiä, pisti taskuun rytättyyn muovipussiin kämmenittäin multaa. Oman nuoren miehen multaa. Omaa nuorta miestä.

After a while you learn the subtle difference Between holding a hand And chaining a soul. And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning And company doesn’t mean security. And you begin to learn That kisses aren’t compromises And presents aren’t promises. And you begin to accept your defeats With your head up and your eyes ahead With the grace of a woman or a man Not the grief of a child. And you learn to build all your loads on today Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans And futures have a way of falling down in midnight. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you ask too much. So you plant your own garden And decorate your own soul Instead of waiting for someone to buy you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure That you really are strong. And you really do have worth. And you learn. And you learn. With every failure you learn.   —Anonymous

Miten kiihkeästi haluaisinkaan hetkittäin olla romaanihenkilö ja nähdä tämän oman elämäni jonkun hyvän, monitietoisen romaanikirjailijan silmin ikään kuin ulkoapäin; miten kaunis, eheä, viisas kertomus siitä ehkä voisikaan tulla; sen sijaan että nyt, tällä vajavaisella huomiokyvyllä varustettuna näen elämäni vain sisältäpäin, kehnosti hahmottuvana, oikullisena, fragmentarisena: pinnallisten ajatusten, äkillisten muistojen, yllättävien tekojen sekamelskana. Välillä riittäisi sekin, että minä olisin edes todentuntuinen kertomus, vaikkapa hyvä viihderomaani, jossa alku ja loppu, uskottavia ihmisiä ja tapahtumia. Jos edes olisin pamfletti tai rukouskirja, esseekokoelma, sarjakuva. Mutta ei.

he who has trembled before the pedagogue's rod will not face the spear willingly.

She stopped also to choose her favourite lamb, which had, she said, a face which showed her what people meant when they said that other people were perfect lambs.

Maailma on täynnä ihmisiä, jotka takertuvat varallisuuteen, arvostukseen tai valtaan. Mitä enemmän menestyksen merkkejä ihmiset ansaitsevat, sitä enemmän he niitä näyttävät tarvitsevan. Ahnaina ja himokkaina he tekevät maallisesta omaisuudesta oman qiblansa, he katselevat aina siihen suuntaan huomaamatta, että muuttuvat itse himoitsemiensa tavaroiden palvelijoiksi.

Mielestäni sedäksi muuttumisen varma merkki on se, kun kaikki alkaa tuntua liialliselta eikä nuorten puheesta enää saa mitään selvää. Varsinkin sellainen olo, että nuorten pitäisi vain rauhoittua ja nauttia elämästä, kertoo oman aseman muuttuneen niin mukavaksi, ettei arki ole enää selviämistaistelua, jota se nuorempana on enemmän tai vähemmän kaikilla, jopa hyväosaisilla.

Vier Tage lang, bis zum 3. Februar, befand sich der Nautilus im Meer von Oman, mit verschiedener Schnelligkeit und in verschiedener Tiefe. Es schien, als fahre er aufs Geratewohl, als habe er über die Fahrt geschwankt; doch kam er nicht über den Wendekreis des Krebses hinaus. Indem wir dieses Meer verließen, bekamen wir einen Augenblick Mascat zu sehen, die bedeutendste Stadt im Land Oman. Ich bewunderte ihr seltsames Aussehen, mitten in einer Umgebung schwarzer Felsen weiße Häuser und Festungswerke in grellem Abstich. Ich sah die runden Kuppeln ihrer Moscheen mit den schlanken Spitzen ihrer Minarette, ihren Terrassen in frischem Grün. Aber es war nur ein Gesicht meiner Phantasie, denn der Nautilus tauchte bald unter die dunkeln Wellen dieser Gegenden.

Mutta kun pilviä tai sumua kasaantuu yöhön lisää, sellainen korkea olo talttuu ja tulee taas tavalliseksi oloksi. Oikeastaan ihmisessä on meri sisässä. On samanlaiset isot aallot ja tuuli ja sitten illalla mainingit alenevat. Alentaako pimeä ne merestä vai eikö tuuli jaksa puhaltaa kun aurinko on laskenut? Joskus muutaman kerran vuodessa on niin tyyntä että rannalla kuulee oman sydämensä.

Myös iloitsin sydämestäni nähdessäni poskiesi pyöristyneen, sillä lihoessaan mies rauhoittuu eikä totisesti tule olemaan minun vikani, jos laihdut Thebassa viipyessäsi, vaan vika on oleva oman hurjan luontosi, sillä kaikki miehet ovat samanlaisia ja kaikki paha maailmassa on lähtöisin siitä pienestä kapineesta, mitä miehet pitävät piilossa esivaatteensa alla, koska häpeävät sitä, enkä suinkaan ihmettele, että he häpeävät sitä.

Tein valintani kyllä - lähtekäämme matkaan! Kuultavan kultaisena kesäyö sarastaa kotilaakson yllä. Joki kiskoo kiiltäen kuin teräs päin ulappaa. Sinä, joka itse olet laulu ja jolla on laulun mahti, ota oman itsesi tahti! Sainko sinut vihdoin satuuni vangiksi vai pakenetko jälleen luotani? Sinä, joka itse olet laulu! Kas, tässä käteni! Pitkin jokea, joka huuhtoo kotirantaa, käy tieni päin ulappaa ja päin merta - merten taa. Jos tiedän että seuraat, on minullekin maailmassa vielä aamunmaa.

By the fourth millennium BC, the Fertile Crescent was not the only region of coalesced communities; organized agricultural, military, religious, and administrative activity had also begun to appear in the Indus Valley, in what is now Pakistan. Even before written records, there is evidence of trade between these two regions. Archaeologists have discovered lamps and cups in Mesopotamia dating from the late fourth millennium BC and made from conch shells found only in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Oman.

Generally Labour Legislations are constructively fortified with the goal of revitalizing the socio-economic fabric of the country through their malleable yet firm provisions, which hypothetically works its way through harmonizing the relationship between employer and employee.

Herra luutnantti. Sotamies Honkajoki A, A ykkönen, ensimmäinen A tarkoittaa etunimeä Aarne, toinen A ja ykkönen tarkoittaa kuntoisuusluokkaa, ilmoittautuu täydennysmiehenä herra luutnantin joukkueeseen.

Niiskun unikuoppa näytti kaikkein kuivimmalta. -Siirry vähän, Hemuli sanoi. -Minun vuoteeseeni on satanut. -Se on pahinta sinulle itsellesi, sanoi Niisku ja kääntyi toiselle kyljelleen. -Siksi minä ajattelin nukkua sinun kuopassasi, Hemuli selitti. -Älä nyt turhia niiskuta. Mutta Niisku vain urahti hiukan ja jatkoi uniaan. Silloin Hemulin sydän täyttyi kostonhalusta, ja hän kaivoi hiekkaan kanavan oman kuoppansa ja Niiskun kuopan välille. -Tuo oli epähemulimaista, sanoi Niisku ja nousi istumaan märässä huovassaan. -Mutta en olisi ikinä uskonut, että sinä keksisit noin nokkelan tempun!

Salim is upset. The fax that was waiting for him when he woke this morning was curt, and alternately chiding, stern, and disappointed: Salim was letting them down—his sister, Fuad, Fuad’s business partners, the Sultanate of Oman, the whole Arab world. Unless he was able to get the orders, Fuad would no longer consider it his obligation to employ Salim. They depended upon him. His hotel was too expensive. What was Salim doing with their money, living like a sultan in America? Salim read the fax in his room (which has always been too hot and stifling, so last night he opened a window, and was now too cold) and sat there for a time, his face frozen into an expression of complete misery.

Ennen vanhaan vain kirkko oli ihmisten mahtava tuomari, ja jokainen tiesi olevansa syntinen. Nyt pitää syntisen tuomita toinen syntinen, jotta kaikki arvot eivät rappeutuisi anarkiaksi, eikä veli enää voi vain itkeä veljen kanssa, vaan hänen on sanottava tälle: "Olet tehnyt väärin." Ja jos ennen vain pappismiehen asu erottui muista jotenkin epäinhimillisenä, ja jopa univormussa ja virkapuvussakin oli silloin vielä jotakin siviilimäistä, niin sittemmin, kun uskon suuri suvaitsemattomuus oli mennyttä, piti maallisen virka-asu nostaa taivaallisen sijaan ja yhteiskunnan piti jakautua maallisiin hierarkioihin ja univormuihin ja kohottaa absoluuttisuuteen uskon sijasta. Ja koska romantiikkaa aina on juuri se että maallinen kohotetaan absoluuttiseksi, niin tämän aikakauden varsinaista aitoa romantiikkaa on univormuromantiikka, ikään kuin olisi olemassa ylimaallinen ja yliajallinen univormun aate, jota ei ole ja joka silti on niin voimallinen että se saa ihmisen valtaansa paljon voimakkaammin kuin mikään maallinen ammatti tai kutsumus konsanaan, se on ei-olemassaoleva ja silti niin voimakas aate, että se tekee univormunkantajasta univormun riivaamaan, vaikka hän ei koskaan ole ammatti-ihminen siviilien tarkoittamassa mielessä; ja näin on koska univormun kantaja syvästi tiedostaa että juuri hän parhaiten edustaa oman aikansa varsinaista elämänmuotoa ja siten myös turvaa oman elämänsä.

Sillä on liian vähän ihokarvoja se ei kelpaa minulle. Viekää se pois, se itkee liikaa, olen kuullut että sillä on joskus jopa ripulia, eikä se osaa siivota eikä suudella eikä olla hiljaa. Siitä ei olisi kuin huolta loputtomia tulehduksia alituista kiukuttelua, varani eivät riittäisi vuodeksikaan sen mielihaluja toteuttamaan. Haluan seurakseni todellisen pedon, en mitään enkelihiutaleitten ja pölysokerin makuista jäljitelmää. Hankkikaa sellainen minulle. Sillä ei pitäisi olla valittamista: minulla on sille kaapissani kaikkea mitä se voi toivoa ja enemmänkin, varmuuden vuoksi vuorasin sille pihalta oman sellin. Pääasia että saan sen itselleni. Jokaisella on pakkomielteensä. Minä haluan oman lähiohjattavan vaarallisen näköisen älykkään nuken joka osaa viihdyttää minua ja josta ei ole vaivaa.

I found that I was sitting for that examination on the exact anniversary of my last shot at it—quarter of a century ago—January 16th, 1914. And what’s more, under the questions, I had scribbled, in the high spirits natural to sweet seventeen, ‘Never again! not if I know it!’ Before I returned that paper to its file,” said Miss Morrison, “I added the words, ‘First Aid taken again January 16th, 1939. I did not know.

Što za "mislio sum" kažemo "računjao sum"? A za "mislim" - "špekuliram"? Kad nešto nećemo, što kažemo "nemam računj", a kad nam je po volji, "ijde mi u račun"? Zašto, koji su u međusobici, ne hvataju jedan drugoga za gušu, već "svodi računje"? A koji su u čemu sporazumnji "isti računj imaju". Kad izgrešiš, veliš "nisum rašunj vodila", a mrziš li ikoga, "imaš sa njim stare računje". Na "dobro došao", odgovaramo "bolje te našao". A zašto, gospođo? Koce? Zar se misli da je sreća što od prošli susret nisum ukradenj? Veli se i - uzeti što zdravo za gotofo. Zašto baš u z e t i? Uzeti za reč. Za ozbiljno. Uzimanje i davanje je trampa, kiria. Trgofačka rabota. Gotofo dojde od gotofinu. Glafa od glavnjicu. Bašta od baštinju. Hodati od prihoda. Dafanje od prodafanja. Pa nama čak i Bog od bogatstva potiče. Kađ ko nasledi vrljine i dukate, isto se kaže. Pretrpeo sam veliki gubitak i kad mi otac umre i kad mi špekulacija omane. Potonjuo je i onaj što se u more udafio i onaj što je na Berzi izgubio. Trg, razume se, od trgofine dolazi. Ne dolazi od crkve, iako je ona na trgu. Kad je što lepo, kažemo da je za “auzlog”. Odmah, dakle, na pazar iznosimo. Ceniti koga ili šta iz “cenje” proističe. Od cenju se rađa i ucenja i ocenja. Mada, ne znajem zašto, po školjama dele svedočanstva, a ne cenjovnike.... Ti telis perisotero? – Što ti treba, gospođo? Svuda trgofina vlada. Čak i u očima. Inače se u poredbama ne bi isključivo rudama, mineraljima i drugom trgofačkom robom služili. Jedan nam čovek zlatanj kao ducat, drugi težak ko oljovo, treći mekanj kao pamvuk, četvrti glupav ko daska, peti tvrd kao kamenj. Oči nam safari, usne koraljne, zubi biserni, kosa svilena, koža – somot i kadifa. Kod nas se nešto sija kao dijamanjat. Ne sija se kao božje noforođenče. Pa nam se, kad pomremo, ni duše za grehove ne propituju, već se kao maloprodajna roba na kanjtar mere...

St. Louis Blues (1929) I hate to see de evenin' sun go down, Hate to see de evenin' sun go down 'Cause ma baby, he done lef' dis town. Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today, Feel tomorrow like I feel today, I'll pack my trunk, make ma git away. Saint Louis woman wid her diamon' rings Pulls dat man 'roun' by her apron strings.

A black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track, said a black-headed Gal makes a freight train jump the track, But a long tall gal makes a preacher ball the jack. Lawd, a blonde-headed woman makes a good man leave the town, I said Blonde-headed woman makes a good man leave the town, But a red-headed woman makes a boy slap his papa down. Oh, ashes to ashes and dust to dust, I said ashes to ashes and dust to dust, If my blues don't get you, my jazzing must.

Jos olisin muusikko, voisin vaikeuksitta kirjoittaa kaksiäänisen melodian, melodian, joka muodostuu kahdesta linjasta, kahdesta sävel- ja nuottirivistä, jotka vastaavat toisiaan, täydentävät toisiaan, taistelevat toisiaan vastaan, ovat riippuvaisia toisistaan, ovat alituisesti keskenään mitä läheisimmässä, elävimmässä vuorovaikutuksessa ja vastavuoroisessa suhteessa toisiinsa joka hetki, jokaisessa rivin kohdassa. Ja jokainen, joka osaa lukea nuotteja, tajuaisi tämän kaksoismelodiani, näkisi ja kuulisi alati jokaisen sävelen kohdalla sen vastasävelen, veljen, vihollisen, antipodin. Niin, ja nimenomaan tämän, tämän kaksiäänisyyden ja alati etenevän antiteesin, tämän kaksoislinjan minä tahtoisin ilmaista oman materiaalini, sanojen avulla ja työskentelen itseni vereslihalle, mutta se ei onnistu. Yritän yhä uudelleen, ja jos jokin aiheuttaa työssäni jännitystä ja painetta, on se yksinomaan tämä intensiivinen pyrkimys saavuttaa jotakin mahdotonta, tämä raju taistelu jonkin saavuttamattoman tavoittamiseksi. Tahtoisin löytää ilmaisun tälle kaksinaisuudelle, tahtoisin kirjoittaa lukuja ja virkkeitä, joissa melodia ja vastamelodia olisivat jatkuvasti ja samanaikaisesti nähtävissä, joissa jokaisen kirjavuuden rinnalla seisoisi jatkuvasti ykseys, jokaisen sukkeluuden rinnalla vakavuus. Sillä ainoastaan siitä koostuvana näen elämän, kahden navan vaihtelussa, maailman kahden peruspilarin välisessä heilahtelussa. Tahtoisin jatkuvasti ihastuneena viitata maailman autuaalliseen kirjavuuteen ja samoin alituisesti teroittaa mieleen, että tämän kirjavuuden perustana on ykseys; tahtoisin jatkuvasti osoittaa, että kaunis ja ruma, valoisa ja pimeä, synti ja pyhyys ovat vastakohtia vain hetkittäin, että ne alinomaa sulautuvat toisiinsa. [- -] Minä en ikinä onnistu taivuttamaan elämän kahta napaa kiinni toisiinsa, kirjoittamaan elämänmelodian kaksiäänisyyttä. Kuitenkin täytyy minun totella sisimpäni hämärää käskyä ja yrittää yhä uudelleen ja uudelleen. Tämä on se jousi, joka pitää käynnissä pientä kelloani. (Hermann Hesse: Kylpylävieraana Badenissa [suom. 1994, suomentanut Aarno Peromies], 124 & 125-126, alkuteos: Kurgast, 1924)

The Kharijis who had repudiated ʿAli after the battle of Siffin formed small bands, usually of between thirty and a hundred men. Each group was at once an outlaw gang and a fanatical religious sect. They were held together by the conviction that they were the only true Muslims and that their rebellions had profound religious justification. A group of Kharijis (called Najda) controlled a good part of Arabia – including Bahrain, Oman, Hadhramaut, and Yemen – before they were finally crushed. These Khariji bands were most likely formed by uprooted individuals looking for communal affiliation through sectarian movements. The second civil war, then, was a crisis for the cohesion of the Arab-Muslim elite, for its political authority, and for its concepts of true belief and communal leadership.

when brought into contact with the empire, picked up all the vices of its decaying civilisation without losing those of his original barbarism. It is not without some reason that the doings of Gaiseric have left their mark on the history of language in the shape of the modern word ' Vandalism.

The Vandal King's special foibles were the conclusion of treaties and armistices which he did not intend to keep, and a large piratical disregard for the need of any pretext or justification for his raids,

Ensin istutetaan kuusentaimia, tuhansia vaaleanvihreitä ja vielä pehmeitä. Sitten odotetaan ja ollaan kärsivällisiä, se on vaikeinta: pitää odottaa oman olemassaolonsa yli ja luopua näkemisestä. Pitää löytää kivi, jonka päällä voi istua. Pitää houkutella odottaminen ruumiiseen, olla jäkäläruumis, puolukkaruumis. Viimein taimet hipovat tuulta, syntyy yö kuusikossa, kuusituuli, raskas humina.

Moukka on kaikki kaikessa. Hän on yleinen mielipide, hän on kaikki. Ilman moukkaa ei olisi olemassakaan yleistä mielipidettä, vaan kukin saisi pitää oman mielipiteensä. Jos ei olisi moukkia, niin ei olisi hallitsijoita eikä hallittavia, ei lakeja eikä lain säätäjiä, ei uskontoa eikä uskovaisia. Olisi olemassa vain ihmisiä, jotka tekisivät mitä haluttaisi.

Enesekesksus on omane nukrusele, mitte heaolutundele.

At that instant Rahab knew she had absolutely no choice. She had thought about her poor crippled brother-in-law being enslaved to a cruel master. She thought of her beautiful sister Zayna, only twelve, being sold to a brutal man who would abuse her. And Oman—what would happen to him and to her sister Romar? Strangely enough she did not think about what would happen to her father. “I will have to do it, sir,” she said. She held her head high, and although her face was colorless, there was a pride in her that even this could not extinguish. “Fine, fine. You may not like this, Rahab, but your family won’t suffer.

Is there no other way, my sister?” “There’s no other way.” Rahab knew she could not stand to be at home any longer. She went over and kissed Oman, holding on to him tightly, and then embraced Zayna. The two clung to her. They were both weeping, although Oman did not understand what was happening. She hugged her older sister, who clung to her, and then hugged her brother-in-law. “You will see me again. I will see to it that you have no wants.” She whirled and left the house, and when she stepped outside, the night was dark, but not as dark as her heart.

The purpose of labor laws/employment laws , is to establish balanced basic rights of both the groups(employer – employee) each having a contributive impact on the economy, while the law makers strategically deduce through conflicting maze of interests principles and guidelines ,ironing out the furrows with balanced promulgation.

The snag lies not in the laws themselves as we call them “loopholes” but the much anticipated upshots are knocked down by the failure to interpret in the intended perspective.

Employer and employee are both ' contributors ' to socio economic development of any nation

Oman’s book Wellington’s Army is 400 pages in length but just a single page is devoted to the artillery with the opening, ‘only a short note is required as to Wellington’s use of artillery’. Historians ever since

His mental powers alone made him formidable, for he was not only a general of note, but a wily politician, faithless not with the light and heady fickleness of a savage, but with the deliberate and malicious treachery of a professional intriguer.

He was not one of the stalwart, hard-fighting, brainless chiefs who were generally to be found at the head of a German horde, but a man of very moderate stature, limping all his life through from a kick that he got from a horse in early youth. His mental powers alone made him formidable, for he was not only a general of note, but a wily politician, faithless not with the light and heady fickleness of a savage, but with the deliberate and malicious treachery of a professional intriguer. He was one of those not uncommon instances of a Teuton, who, when brought into contact with the empire, picked up all the vices of its decaying civilisation without losing those of his original barbarism.

the diarist very wisely writes, “one could not be too guarded in one’s conduct with such heroes.”{201}

The Arab slave trade was most active in West Asia, North Africa, and Southeast Africa. In the early 20th century (post World War I), slavery was gradually outlawed and suppressed in Muslim lands, largely due to pressure exerted by Western nations such as Britain and France.[6] For example, Saudi Arabia and Yemen only abolished slavery in 1962 under pressure from Britain; Oman followed suit in 1970, and Mauritania in 1905, 1981, and again in August 2007.[13] However, slavery claiming the sanction of Islam is documented presently in the predominantly Islamic countries of Chad, Mauritania, Niger, Mali, and Sudan.

Pyyhkeet näyttävät aina siltä, että ne haisevat hielle ja hiivalle eikä niitä koskaan pestä, kunnes asuntoon muuttaa nainen, joka käskee pyykätä liinavaatteet useammin, päätyäkseen vain tekemään sen lopulta itse. Vaikka tasa-arvo olisi edennyt kuinka pitkälle maailmassa, pyyhkeiden peseminen jää usein naisten harteille siitä syystä, ettei miehiä ollenkaan haittaa pyyhkiä itseään oman kullinsa hajuisella pellavalumpulla.

He rose early, spent his day in administrative duties, and his night in reading and writing. As he grew older he seemed to dispense with sleep altogether, as if he had become free from the common necessities of man’s nature. There was something strange and horrible in his cold-blooded, untiring energy; superstitious men whispered that he was inspired by a restless demon who gave him no peace, or that he was actually a demon himself Had not a belated courtier met him after midnight pacing the dark corridors of the palace with a fearful and changed countenance that was no longer human, or even — as the story grew — with no face at all, a shapeless monstrous shadow?

Lukutaito tarkoitti, että voin oman huoneeni rauhassa tehdä loputtomia tutkimusmatkoja siihen mitä kaikkea on olla ihminen tässä maailmassa, mitä se on ja on ollut muille, mitä se ehkä voisi olla minulle. Yhä edelleen, digitaalisessa maailmassa, toisen kirjoittaman kirjan lukeminen on minulle varmin tapa kokea, että en ole maailmassa yksin.

Magan (in what is now Oman), and there he led his army to victory and “personally caught Mandannu, its king.

As soon as you have a settled home,” said the Dowager grandly, “get some dogs. Never allow yourself to fall into the error of having a single pet. Always have a young one coming on to fill the sad gap.

Is Major Hungerford little?” asked Pippa. “No, he’s six foot two,” said Mrs Taylor. “Diminutives denote affection.

The fruit vendor’s anguish set off weeks of nationwide demonstrations against the Tunisian government, and on January 14, 2011, Ben Ali and his family fled to Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, similar protests, made up mostly of young people, were beginning to happen in Algeria, Yemen, Jordan, and Oman, the first flickers of what became known as the Arab Spring.

Lukusuoralla kahden luonnollisen luvun, esimerkiksi yhden ja kahden välissä, on ääretön määrä muita lukuja, murtolukuja ja irrationaalilukuja. Erika havaitsi muistin materian olevan samanlaista, mikään mielikuva ei tyhjene rajalliseen määrään yksityiskohtia, syntymän ja nykyhetken väliin mahtuu äärettömyys, samoin kahden hengenvedon väliin. Erika tunsi uppoavansa sinne, pois matematiikan abstraktista ja hyvin käsitteellistetystä äärettömyydestä oman muistiaineksensa äärettömyyteen, eikä se ollut lainkaan miellyttävä kokemus.

through any structure without detection by his prey. He was a flawless assassin. It was just before five local time when Steven settled into the plush leather seating of the first-class compartment. The Deutsche Bahn Intercity Express, or ICE, was a high-speed train connecting major cities across Germany with other major European destinations. The trip to Frankfurt would take about four hours, giving him time to spend some rare personal time with his team. Slash was the first to find him. The men shook hands and sat down. Typically, these two longtime friends would chest bump in a hearty bro-mance sort of way, but it would be out of place for Europe. “Hey, buddy,” said Steven. “Switzerland is our new home away from home.” “It appears so, although the terrain isn’t that different from our place in Tennessee,” said Slash. “I see lots of fishin’ and huntin’ opportunities out there.” Slash grew up on his parents’ farm atop the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee about halfway between Nashville and Knoxville. His parents were retired and spent their days farming while raising ducks, rabbits and some livestock. While other kids spent their free time on PlayStation, Slash grew up in the woods, learning survival skills. During his time with the SEAL Teams, he earned a reputation as an expert in close-quarters combat, especially using a variety of knives—hence the nickname Slash. “Beats the heck out of the desert, doesn’t it?” asked Steven. After his service ended, Slash tried a few different security outfits like Blackwater, protecting the Saudi royal family or standing guard outside some safe house in Oman. “I’m not saying the desert won’t call us back someday, but I’ll take the Swiss cheese and German chocolate over shawarma and falafel every friggin’ day!” “Hell yeah,” said Slash. “When are you comin’ down for some ham and beans, along with some butter-soaked cornbread? My folks really wanna meet you.” “I need to, buddy,” replied Steven. “This summer will be nuts for me. Hey, when does deer hunting season open?” “Late September for crossbow and around Thanksgiving otherwise,” replied Slash. Before the guys could set a date, their partners Paul Hittle and Raymond Bower approached their seats. Hittle, code name Bugs, was a former medic with Army Special Forces who left the Green Berets for a well-paying job with DynCorp. DynCorp was a private

GRETCHEN O, Cady, if thou only knew’st how vile, How reprehensible, how knavish, and How horrible Regina truly is! Thou knowest I may not hoop earrings wear? ’Twas two full years ago she did declare Hoop earrings as her purview only, yea— The bound’ry circular of her domain— Ne’ermore would I be sanction’d in the wearing. When I, for Hanukkah, receiv’d a pair From my dear parents—white gold hoops were they, Expensive in the buying, priceless in The giving generous—yet ’twas my lot To act as though I could not stand the things. She took the ring of me: I’ll none of it, But must contest her wickedness anon. Know’st thou she cheateth frequently on Aaron, Doth make him cuckold for another’s lust? Each Thursday, when he thinks she is engag’d In preparation for the SAT, She earns him horns by being horny with Shane Oman, o’er in the projection room, Which sits above the auditorium. Ne’er have I shar’d this secret with a soul Because I am, I grant, a perfect friend. Yet knowledge of it nearly makes me burst, For Aaron is, in sooth, an innocent man— If there’s a chance of resurrecting love, I’m not above returning to the start, To find out where the heartache did begin.

Like so many other French generals in the Peninsula, he was soon to find that victory is not the same thing as conquest.

Dear Mr. Putnam: As I lead, to put it mildly, a sedentary life for the moment I would greatly like some books that would appeal to my queer taste. I do not suppose there are any histories or any articles upon the early Mediterranean races. That man Lindsay who wrote about prehistoric Greece has not put out a second volume, has he? Has a second volume of Oman’s Art of War appeared? If so, send me either or both; if not, then a good translation of Niebuhr and Momsen [sic] or the best modern history of Mesopotamia. Is there a good history of Poland? Putnam obliged, only to receive a presidential reprimand. “I do not like the Poland. It is too short.

the six Gulf Cooperation countries comprising Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Oman had granted asylum to a grand total of zero Syrian refugees by 2016.

The Second Saudi State (1824–1891) never reached Mecca, though it did at times stretch from the Persian Gulf to the edge of the Hejaz, and from Ha’il in the north to Yemen and Oman in the south.

In 2016, ten additional countries were added to the OPEC cartel to form OPEC+. These countries are Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Brunei, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Mexico, Oman, Russia, South Sudan, and Sudan. Make no mistake. The OPEC+ Cartel was formed to exert even more monopolistic control over global fossil fuels production supply and pricing. OPEC+ now directly controls well over 80% of the world’s proven oil reserves. Therefore, every consumer in the world is subjugated to whatever prices and production OPEC+ dictate.

An exercise in illusion via allusion. Wear it and after a few hours you will find your daily life suffused by the same feeling of peace you get when you settle into an armchair after tidying your apartment from end to end. If you think of all the best Chanel fragrances as varieties of little black dress - sleek, dependable, perfectly proportioned - Bois des iles is the one in cashmere. I have worn it on and off for years, whenever I felt I needed extra insulation from the cold world. To my nose Chinatown ( Bond No. 9 ) smells like a corner of a small French grocery in summer, in the exact spot where the smell of floor wax meets that of ripe peaches. Lignin, the stuff that prevents all trees from adopting the weeping habit, is a polymer made up of units that are closely related to vanillin. When made into paper and stored for years, it breaks down and smells good. Which is how divine providence has arranged for secondhand bookstores to smell like good quality vanilla absolute, subliminally stoking a hunger for knowledge in all of us. Perfume is, among other things, the most portable form of intelligence. Oman was making perfumes when Europeans only bathed once a year on doctor's orders. Chanel No. 5 is a Brancusi. The beauty and fragrance industry has lied to women for so long, convincing us to fork over cash for crud in shiny packages, that at this point event pure quality has trouble getting taken seriously. Clever marketing can get us to buy something once, but rarely again. We don't wear Chanel No. 5 because Marilyn Monroe wore it, we wear it for the same reason that Marilyn did: because it''s gorgeous. Sycomore, Chanel. If putting it on does not make you shiver with pleasure, see a doctor. Aside from beautiful aircraft, nuclear power stations, food and wine, perfumery is France's biggest export, yet there is no perfume museum in Paris. The ability possessed by certain fragrances to briefly turn the most arid mind into a fairy garden, to make us lament the passing of loves and losses we know full well we never had, is a miracle specific to perfumery.

Kaikki ihmiset haluavat saada maailman muovautumaan oman elämänkatsomuksensa, omien arvojensa ja mieltymystensä mukaiseksi. Sivistynyt ihminen pystyy vastustamaan tätä halua, sillä sivistys ei ole vain yleistietoa, asiantuntijuutta, hyvää makua ja pukeutumisen taitoa. Se on syvempää, suvaitsevaista ymmärrystä todellisuuden monimutkaisuudesta.

Olen saanut elämässäni enemmän kuin oman osani taikuutta, ja useimmiten tavatessani muita ihmisiä. Niissä tapaamisissa ja vain niissä on ollut jotakin... En osaa sanoa tarkemmin, vain sen että toisistamme meidän on etsittävä, jos jotakin haemme, että silmäparimme ovat kaksoispisteet, joista seuraa jotakin, täsmennys tai perustelu.

Another part of al Qaeda’s public case justifying its war against America was U.S. support for corrupt dictatorships in the Middle East, which included Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, Yemen and Egypt. This support, bin Laden complained, came with the condition that these regimes keep oil prices artificially low and spend their profits on large purchases of American arms instead of using it for the people’s benefit. Is it a surprise then that all the September 11th hijackers were from countries with governments friendly to our own—Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates—and that none of them were from America’s designated enemy states of Iran, Iraq or Syria?

But the truth is, if things are so bad you’ve gotta send Balls O’Manly Steel in to save the day… Well, you’re probably already nipples up. Or you soon will be. Nah, in the real world, it’s us older folks who’re gonna save your bacon.

She is tired of dreading the next war in Israel, of living in fear that she and everyone she knows may not survive. That Tel Aviv will be flattened by a shower of Russian-made missiles hurled by Egypt, Jordan, Syria, or Lebanon; or that Saudi Arabia, Oman, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, the United Emirates, or Libya will blacken the Israeli skies with their thousands of airplane bombers. It’s exhausting to always be on alert.
