I(Doc Kazi of flickr) got this rare photgraph from Mahmood on Victoria Road. He could not identify the others although the man in the center resembles the Nawab of Jungadh. The British General resembles Gen Musa. Mr Jinnah seems in a relaxed mood ostensibly with his favorite 'Craven A' cigarettes, which finally got him

Narrated Um Salama (radi Allaho anho):
One night the Prophet (sallallaho alaihi wassallam) got up and said, "Subhan Allah! How many afflictions Allah has revealed tonight and how many treasures have been sent down (disclosed).

Volume 2, Book 21, Number 230:

On every knot he reads and exhales the following words, 'The night is long, so stay asleep.' When one wakes up and remembers Allah, one knot is undone; and when one performs ablution, the second knot is undone, and when one prays the third knot is undone and one gets up energetic with a good heart in the morning; otherwise one gets up lazy and with a mischievous heart."

It always puts a smile on my face when I see such clocks.

I enjoy the different and sometimes bizarre designs but when it comes to telling time that's where the problems start. We are accustomed to round clocks with 3 (sometimes 2) hands.

So this is a time cube but instead of hands it has triangles. The large one is the hour hand the middle one - minutes and the smallest one is for minutes. I think and this is only a guess, that you can tell time by looking at the numbers near the black line. What I like about this clock is that it transform into different shapes for 12 hours.

This amazing telescope was built by a Victorian inventor to build a friendship between two large cities: London and New York.

The project was resurfaced and now everyone can wave to their friends in New York effortlessly. According to the Daily Mail, "the Telectroscope uses 6ft screens and a Jules Verne style telescope that gleams with brass and an array of Victorian dials.

Participants peer into one end of the screen - and hey presto - they can see anyone standing at the other side."

Here is how the powerful telescope looks like.The trans-Atlantic tunnel is really a trans-Atlantic broadband network rounded off on each end with HD cameras, according to Tiscali, an Italian Internet provider handling the technical side of the project.
