In 2006 I moved to Qatar and things are not what many people in North America would expect - it is not like how the Middle East is portrayed in the media. I'm also a fan of skepticism and science so wondered how this works here in Qatar. Since I'm here for a while I figured I'd use the time to get to know this country better and with this blog you can learn along with me. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - So what posts have been popular recently . . .

Tragedy at Villaggio
Man, is it ever tragic. One day I'm blogging about the crazy crowds at Villaggio Mall and the next there was a huge fire at the mall.
A spokesman for the Government announced at a news conference tonight that the fire started near the nursery in the center of the mall. 19 people are confirmed dead so far -- including 13 children!
A number of vigils and church services will be held tomorrow. I will going to one of them.
I don't know what else I can say. :(
