  1. In Arabia blood money of one human life was equal to 100 camels. This custom came from a legend of a tribe chief who had no sons for which he was ridiculed by others. He made a plea to God to give him 10 sons and vowed to sacrifice his 10th. He did fathered 10 sons and wanted to fulfill his promise but was stopped by others as it would be insulting and bad precedent for a tribe chief. Soothsayers told him to sacrifice 10 camels each time instead to fulfill the promise until 100 camels were sacrificed.

    Euro 2024

    2006 was the last World Cup that had quality sides and entertainment, either one has been missing since then.
  3. 900+ dead in Afghanistan after earthquake. I felt some shocks last night in bed but I thought I was imagining, there are have quite a few lately I think its just me.
  4. The Face of Ka'aper. Wooden statue of a scribe from ancient Egypt dated around 2500 BC. The eyes are made from rock crystal and copper. Compare this to the shit statues of footballers they make these days.
  5. Same in the sense that it has a fixed rate but its not for the religious body to take, you own wealth or certain assets which liquefied exceed a standard and count as surplus, a year passed on and you still posses that surplus then you distribute a % of it to the needy.
  6. That pillar thing is what you give on your surplus wealth over a year, its like a tax than a donation. A private affair, don't have to show in any record. Salah and Mane are doing way more than that, not complaining though
  7. Most products, specially electronics mention where they are assembled also as services provided by assemblers are important too
  8. If there should be this nitpicking on goods production process it should then have all the details Exploited from Congo Gas from Russia Made in China Made by Apple
  9. Geez, nitpicking on the word 'make'. By that logic China doesn't "makes" iPhones.
  10. Self-explanatoey that its talking about factories. They shifted to Thailand, China etc but didn't get the same feedback on balls as made by Pakistani factories so their top stuff is focused there. And its not just Adidas that has enterprises there.
  11. That is how all Off-topic subsections work. Follow tradition reject modernity
  12. Off-topic should be anything about PL teams which is non-football related.
  13. A British officer once took his deflated football to a cobbler in Sialkot now in modern day Pakistan. The other day he got his football fixed but then saw another football besides the cobbler, he asked where he got it to which the man said he made it himself copying from the ball he gave him. The officer started to pay him to make more footballs. This started an industry that to this days makes the most footballs in the world, including the World Cu balls, the Champions League balls and other top leagues.
  14. Russian side saying recognition was based on agreement of free transit of goods and people to and from Leningrad !?
  15. People saying its no big deal though as its a partial blockade only on the stuff falling under the sanctions. Russia will just have to double time on ferry transport.
  16. All kinds of coffee beans get infected with cockroaches and it is impossible to remove them completely. So 4%-6% bug parts are allowed in coffee by regulation authorities.
  17. Lithuania blocking rail transit of goods to Kaliningrad.
  18. Wouldn't be easy for NATO if they're discussing every plan on live TV?
  19. Levant was like the fifth choice. Earlier choices were Texas and other places in US then East Africa
  20. British naval officer and intelligence officer Mansfield Smith-Cumming discovered that semen made a good invisible ink during WWI. However it was ceased later for the smell and masturbatory habits of agents.
  21. Yeah so the far the posturing of both sides doesn't show that they are up for an agreement. I'm a bit anxious about the coming winter and next year tbh.
