The fact is that Twitter is not really a factor in Egypt, just as it wasn't a real factor in Iran. In Iran we heard a lot about Twitter, but after things cooled down we heard from the Iranians themselves that they didn't use Twitter- only the Western reporters did.
The Egyptian Revolution Will Not Be Tweeted: A First-Hand Report From Cairo
I heard from an in-Cairo NPR reporter that when Twitter (but perhaps rather the Internet as a whole) was blocked, it sent people into the streets because they couldn't "participate" electronically anymore. The street became their only option.
Unfortunately, the bill last year that would give the US government an internet kill switch is back again this year:
Egypt Flips Internet Kill Switch. Will the U.S.?
Sorry, Steve. I was there last March, and in reading recent reports all I could think was, Man, if this had happened during my visit I would have been so annoyed. Not that it isn't richly deserved; Mubarak is awful.
Part of the reason I thought that was that I was in Thailand during a major coup in November 2008 that shut down all the airports. I don't think you should have to deal with that kind of thing every couple years…Every 5 or 10, sure, you take your chances traveling to most any developing country with corrupt leaders.
As a backup, try Jordan or Israel if you want the Middle East, or Turkey (which is sort of Middle Eastern and obviously has enormous history and is gorgeous in more ways than one). Our group used a gay guide and an extremely gay-friendly female guide, and they lead tours is all those countries and others. Let me know if you'd like their info. I bet they're not happy in Cairo at the moment—apparently a lot of looting is going on in addition to the protests.
And Egypt may still work. In Thailand protesters focused on airports in Bangkok, but other cities did their best to insulate tourists from the far more limited protests–meaning that tourist areas were unaffected. So if you avoid Cairo (which I did anyway, aside from the obligatory visit to the pyramids), you might be OK. It sounds like the protests are on the streets and not restricting air travel, and a lot can change in a month.

Respond to Review of Veggie Delight
by JonJon
Review: This restaurant offers a good chinese food with different faux-meat dishes. However, because it is not fully vegan, you have sometimes to pay a little bit more to have the vegan options. The place is relatively small but convenient, and the staff is friendly. They also served different crazy and fresh fruit juices with Boba pearls. Try any of them!

I think it's safe to say that the Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne is a genius, equal parts Thomas Edison and P.T. Barnum. Like Edison, Coyne is a relentless tinkerer, a visionary experimenteur with a sci-fi fetish and a soft spot for odd technologies. And like Barnum, Coyne is a consummate showman-- the hand puppets, the boombox orchestras, the oddball short films, the radio-controlled headphones. In 1984, Coyne was just another Oklahoma dreamer with an amateurish psych-rock garage band and a duffel bag stuffed with thrift-store effects pedals; 18 years later, Coyne finds himself in the position of following up one of the most universally regarded albums since Pet Sounds.
So let's just come right out and say it: after the one-two punch of Zaireeka and The Soft Bulletin, Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots is a bold and inventive work, brimming with ideas and sublime moments of brilliance. But it's also unfocused and top-heavy, a concept album about robots and karate that, somewhere along the line, strays into languorous, contemplative songs about mortality and death. Nor does Yoshimi always put the Lips' best foot forward-- though Dave Fridmann's production dazzles, the overdriven drums and orchestral swoons that characterized The Soft Bulletin are often lost in a busy mesh of programmed beats and lazy synthstrings.
The album gets off to a rollicking start with the winning "Fight Test," a glossy rumination on the call to duty-- whether that's standing up to a playground bully or, as the Lips would have it, an army of rebellious androids bent on world domination. "If it's not now, then tell me when would be the time that you would stand up and be a man?" Coyne sings over a thick buzz of keyboards, bass and an almost hip-hop rhythm, offsetting his resolve in the refrain: "I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life/ It's all a mystery." It's a stunning pop song-- easily this album's "Waitin' for a Superman"-- with an intensely memorable melody and the conflict of Coyne's internal dialogue resonating positively on many levels.
Yoshimi takes its first left turn with "One More Robot/Sympathy 3000-21," a slippery detour into glitch augmented with falsetto choruses, reverberating vocals and haywire surges of digital clickery. "Unit 3000-21 is warming/ Makes a humming sound when its circuits duplicate emotions," Coyne sings over a simple bass figure and ambient tones before the song explodes in a burst of overdriven clockwork. It's a dizzying, disorienting sound-- but once the novelty wears off, you've gotta admit it sounds a bit like Steely Dan.
"Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots (Part 1)" rides a simple melody and ridiculously infectious butt-beat as it sets the stage for the album's short-lived 'concept'-- some entertaining nonsense about an army of Japanese girls training to take on the salmon-hued robots at a kung-fu compound right out of Enter the Dragon. In the chorus, Coyne plays call-and-response with a malevolent synth burble that sounds like a malevolent R2-D2. Its rollercoaster companion, "Yoshimi (Part 2)," scales a slinky, ascending wall of farty synth and distant Japanese babble before the bottom falls out, rocketing into chaotic instrumental breakdowns each a shade more intense than the last. It's the closest the Lips have come to writing straight videogame music, complete with crowd noises and bloodcurdling screams (courtesy of the Boredoms' Yoshimi Yokota).
And this is where Yoshimi makes its first misstep, on the sleepy "In the Morning of Magicians." Though punctuated with bursts of instrumental energy, the arrangement quickly devolves into a thick lite-FM syrup. "What is love and what is hate, and why does it matter?" Coyne wonders over a flitty symphony of Muzak strings. Again, the production is flawless-- I especially dig the wavering tape-speed fluctuations on the background vocals-- but the song throws the album into a downbeat, overly philosophical malaise from which it never fully recovers. What happened to Yoshimi again? Pink robots... what pink robots?
Yoshimi shines again with the superior "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell," which pits more existential lyrics over a far more satisfying collage of sounds (vocal samples, snippets of mellotron, a lumbering bass). "I was waiting on a moment, but the moment never came," croons Coyne, echoing the issues of readiness and bravery "Fight Test" raised, but also betraying Yoshimi's greatest weakness: the moment never comes.
The closest the Lips do come is on the divine "Are You a Hypnotist?," if only for the brief return of some actual drums (brilliantly tracked to create some glitchy, idiosyncratic fills impossible to play in real life). Coyne indulges in wordplay such as, "I have forgiven you for tricking me again/ But I have been tricked again/ Into forgiving you," as the song builds to a distorted swell of fuzzy static and some otherworldly choir.
"Do You Realize" buzzes and clangs with overproduction, as Coyne breezes through a list of trite observations like, "Do you realize that everyone you know someday will die?" and, "Let them know you realize that life goes fast/ It's hard to make the good things last." Its parallels with Mike + The Mechanics' "The Living Years" are uncanny, and believe me, it hurts me more to say that about a Flaming Lips song than it does you to read it. The already unsubtle onslaught of church bells, woozy background harmonies, and strings ascends into supreme levels of cheese with not one, but two key changes midway through, becoming a near-parody of the genuine emotional weight that carried The Soft Bulletin. And the minor-key Beatleisms of "It's Summertime (Throbbing Orange Pallbearers)" are wasted on more childlike philosophizing: "Look outside/ I know that you'll recognize it's summertime." After the grandiose, symphonic universalisms of The Soft Bulletin, could it be this record's deepest message is "stop and smell the roses"?
Apparently so, as the self-explanatory "All We Have Is Now" retreads these themes for a third time, albeit with an uncharacteristically fragile beauty. All of this might have some ironic poignancy if, god forbid, Coyne were to be diagnosed with some terminal illness tomorrow (and indeed, the latter half of Yoshimi was reportedly inspired by the death of a Japanese fan). But in the context of this album, Yoshimi simply runs out of emotional punch, having expended its boldest moves and most resonant sentiments in the first five songs.
Bafflingly, Yoshimi ends with "Approaching Pavonis Mons by Balloon (Utopia Planitia)," an anticlimactic instrumental punctuated with distant vocal warbling, laser-beam bursts, and sudden fanfares of trumpet. It didn't have to be this way, judging from the wealth of stronger material widely traded online by net-savvy Lips fans. The evocative "The Switch That Turns Off the Universe" (previewed in a 1999 BBC session) would seem to be a perfect fit with Yoshimi's cautionary tales of techno-doom. Or better yet, the Yoshimi outtake "If I Go Mad/Funeral In My Head" (now set to appear as a single b-side), an instant Lips classic in which Coyne seemingly conjures rainstorms, orchestras, and deafening applause on command.
Despite this album's disappointing brevity (45 minutes, padded with two instrumentals), its dense production and well-crafted melodies offer long-term replayability. Moments like the Coyne-as-robot "I'll get you, Yoshimi" barely audible in the title track, or the interchangeable "I must have been drifting"/"I must have been tripping" background vocals in "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell" seem tailor-made for bull sessions around the alien-head bong. Though Yoshimi could be considered guilty of adhering too strictly to a tried-and-true formula (fast beats, slow melodies), it's really the more disparate elements that keep this album from building emotionally into a classic. And so, like a double feature of Drunken Master and Terms of Endearment, or a surprise party where the surprise is that your best friend has cancer, ultimately Yoshimi is kind of a bummer.

Do you ever watch a dog chase it's tail? It's kind of sad to watch...although most dogs seem to enjoy it. They run like crazy...around and around in circles...never realizing that they are in their own way. Now, this may be a rough analogy, but sometimes you simply get in your own way, too.
Do You Get In Your Own Way? Original Article By: Kalei Beamon Do you ever watch a dog chase it's tail? It's kind of sad to watch...although most dogs seem to enjoy it. They run like crazy...around and around in circles...never realizing that they are in their own way. Now, this may be a rough analogy, but sometimes you simply get in your own way, too. Yep. I said it. You get in your own way. At one point in time we have all been guilty of chasing our tails. Although, we probably were not having that much fun! And when we start chasing our tails...it tends to be a sign of this little thing called resistance. Do You Get In Your Own Way? I was reminded of that today while on a coaching call with my millionaire mentor. It's amazing all the little things that we do that add up to big roadblocks in our path. The negative self talk... ...limiting beliefs... ...self-sabatoge. And it always seems to creep up at the most inopportune time...like right when you are on the verge of a success. Kind of like being on a diet and when you are 5 pounds from the goal...diving fork first into heavily frosted cake. (yes, I've done that.) Everybody is susceptible to varying degrees. Let's face it...it's easy to get in your own way. It's part of the human condition. A very inconvenient part...I might add. So how do we get out of our own way so that we can start manifesting our dreams and desires? Well, it really starts with being aware of what is going on in your head and in the world that you are creating and knowing when you start to get in your own way. I found this post from Karla Harris who had some great insight on some basic guidelines and principles you can follow to manifest the life of your dreams. Here's a short excerpt from one of her recent blogs: Who you listen to is important. I would not listen to someone who has no experience in what I desire to have. It's like asking someone to teach me how to cook that does not know how. Remaining teachable and being willing to change is necessary in order to grow. Believing I know it all and only willing to do it my way is a recipe for disaster. Setting clear intentions is the key to manifesting your dreams and desires. Knowing what I want and why I want it will keep my focus on achieving my dreams and desires. Developing good habits is essential to growing emotionally and mentally. Taking care of myself, eating properly, being well rested and implementing some type of physical activity insures my ability to handle all challenges and obstacles I face. I love these concepts because they are simple yet very effective in helping people stay on track... ...And, it makes it harder for all of those roadblocks I mentioned to pop up and for you to get in your own way. Be Bold. Come Along.

Featured review from Mava

Worthwhile production of Othello by the NT. Kinnear was wonderful as Iago; Lester was good as Othello. The setting in modern-day Iraq was fairly successful, though I don't believe it mattered too much. For me the female parts were not done as well but if you are interested in Shakespeare, you should see this if only for Kinnear's amazing performance.
Olivier Award-winning actor Adrian Lester (Henry V at the National Theatre, BBC's Hustle_) takes the title role. Playing opposite him as the duplicitous Iago is fellow Olivier Award winner Rory Kinnear (_The Last of the Haussmans, James Bond: Skyfall_), who is reunited with director Nicholas Hytner (_Timon of Athens, One Man, Two Guvnors) following their acclaimed collaboration on the National Theatre's recent production of Hamlet.
Performances may not be appropriate for children under age 6.
