Premarital Testing Procedures – إجراءات الفحص الطبي قبل الزواج
Monday, March 7th, 2011
Okay, Why am I writing about this? simple, I’m going through it… and yes, it means I’m getting married and no, I’m not kidding 
The whole thing is simple enough, it’s just most of us “newbies” have no clue where to go and/or what to do, also; there are more that one place to do the tests that few know about, so here’s the break down on what to do and where to go:
The Test Authorization Letter:
- First things first, you’ll need to get a testing authorization letter from the Ministry of Justice’s Legitimate Authentication “التوثيقات الشرعية” office @ the Government Mall (The building next to the Liberation Tower down town Kuwait City, and they stay open in an after noon shift until 8pm), Make sure you have: 1- Your Civil ID, 2- Your Fiancee’s Civil ID, 3- and the Civil ID of your Fiancee’s Father, Make photocopy of the IDs and Head there. (Any one of those mentioned can complete the process without the physical attendance of the others, just make sure the authentic Civil IDs are with you/them)
- Once there, go to the MOJ office on the Second Floor, head for the Legitimate Authentication office “التوثيقات الشرعية” and hand them the Civil ID copies (again, yours, your fiancee’s and her dad’s, of which in turn they’ll ask you to hand over the original IDs for verification purposes.
- When done they’ll hand you some papers where you need to take them to the Civil Affairs office on the 1st floor. Go there, take a number, and when its your turn, hand over the papers, a couple of clicks on the keyboard and they will hand you back a paper that you need to take back to the Legitimate Authentication office “التوثيقات الشرعية” on the 2nd floor and you’re done.
Once you have the paper, You’ll actually need to do the test, here are the places where you can go to:
- Al-Sabah Hospital Campus, Premarital Test Center.
- Al-Farwaniyah, Al-Osaimy Clinic
- Mubarak Al-Kabeer, Mubarak Al-Kabeer’s Clinic (مستوصف)
- Al-Jahra, Near Awtad Complex
For the test you need:
1- You, Your Fiancee and any relative of hers.
2- Your Civil IDs
The rest is a straight forward business and you don’t have to fast for the test too, just fill some papers and take a number for the test, they’ll take 3 small vials of blood off your body, so make sure you’re well fed. Once done, they’ll call you within a week for the results 
Hope this is helpful, if any of you guys could add some useful info for the above, please let us know. God Bless and Happy marriages for all 
It would be nice REUSE thing

How To Take Nice Pictures In Your Mobile Camera
Thursday, November 25th, 2010
With the latest photography regulation around here, this post worth to looking at In 360Dewan we take most of our pictures with our mobile-cameras, specifically, Galaxy S, iPhone 3GS & 4. The main reason for this is simple “We don’t leave home without our mobiles” and sometime we have to sneak a picture. Mobile-cameras are getting better with more features over time and able to produce nice pictures, however, you can’t rely on them for granted. In this post, we are sharing our experience on how to have nice pictures and get the most out of your mobile camera.
Be close to your target
This’s a general photography rule we have to follow, specially, when it comes to mobile cameras which produce low quality pictures.
Clean your Lens
Though this applies to any camera lens, it’s essential in mobile cameras. We keep our mobile in our pocket, next on the table, later taking them with us to lunch .. etc the need to be cleaned
Don’t zoom
You may brag about your mobile camera zooming capabilities among your friends but don’t use it. Unless you are paparazzi, digital zooming leads to terrible pictures. To avoid this, just be closer to your object.
Avoid night scenes
This’s another my mobile better than yours thing .. come on, did you see your night mode pictures?
Flash is not your best friend
Don’t be upset if your mobile camera doesn’t have flash. I always keep my flash off; flash can help you get picture if there’s no enough light around.
Don’t always trust auto-mode
Most of mobile cameras come with auto-mode that decides on shooting aspects but , unlike what in DSLR, it doesn’t work most to the time. If you are not sure about manual mode, trial & error comes in handy.
Move around for better light
Light is what makes your picture, move around for better light and angle. Or, you may take the shoot from different angles if possible.
Stop those hands from shaking
You don’t want to get blurry pictures, do you? Depending on your mobile camera setting, make a use of stability feature.
Make use of mobile camera features
You may be blessed that your mobile phones gives options to configure camera settings, take advantage and use them such as resolution control, Exposure & focus!, Stabilizer, Grids, HDR .. etc
Give your camera a second
Most of the new phones are good at the white balance; they only need a chance! this varies from phone to another but stay still and give your camera 5sec to produce good pictures.
Focus on one thing
Unless you plan for landscape shot, get closer and focus on one object.
Take more than one photo
Depending on the situation, at least take 3 shots so later you can decide on one!
Apply some magic “editing”
You may do the editing on your mobile or PC. With iPhone i use PS Express (Abode Photoshop for mobile version) it’s simple, free, and has all the basics. There many good paid ones to choose from. In Pc, I have Google Picasa; again it’s simple, free with all the basics + I can remove the geo tags very easily. With editing you do many things: black & white, adjust Color & light, filter & effects as out-of-focus, sharpen, saturation, sepia … etc
