beware of search results
I was searching about the sand storm forecast in Google and what happened to the predictions. I ended up these pages as I sorted it with dates
http://www.google.com/search?q=kuwait%20sandstorm&hl=en&rls=com.microsof...
While going through the results, I noticed two sites which are listed but leads to the irrelevant pages. When checked the pattern, both these sites are pointing to similar pages. (links are taken off)
smaggy. com/ nitgn/pztyp/ kuwait.php
dianfacil. com/ gyzkp/bncyw/ kuwait.php

Fasttelco DSL crazy pricing
I was trying to build a comparison sheet in Kuwaitstay.com about the DSL internet costs in Kuwait. Surprisingly I found some interesting pricing at Fast Telco site
see the image: the 6 months charge for a 1mbps connection is 174.200 KD. Don't know what is that 200 fils doing there :). However, the one year subscription of the same connections costs on 156 KD... Agian.. 174.200 for 6 months and only 156 for one year...
Another one is on the 2 mbps... 3 months costs 261.750 fils while one year costs only 226 KD.... Is this a sales magic from fasttelco or a typo error in the site?
