What's On...the Xbox and TV
Here are some of the shows we’ve completed watching the past 2 months (No Spoilers). Yeah, the Xbox, PC and TV were quite busy working together to bring us these. 24 Season 5 – He’s back; Jack Bauer. Great pacing and great plot. We both think this is the best yet although Season 4 comes really close. We finished 24 episodes in 4 nights! Can’t wait for them to start Season 6. Moral of the Story: Never argue with Jack Bauer. Prison Break – Michael Scofield gets jailed to get his brother out of jail. Not exactly your 24-kind of pacing nor Lost’s rich characterization but gets the job done. Actors are believable and great at what they do. Some plot lines are obvious and reflect some other TV Series. Moral of the Story: A tattoo is not just an art form. Amazing Race 8 – A first in the Amazing race as families travel around the US and South America to receive 1 million dollars. Great fun but challenges are a bit less exciting as the producers tamed them a bit for the younger family members. Moral of the Story: Leave the children to your parents when joining the Amazing Race. Amazing Race 9 – TTAO! The Frat Boys, MoJo, The Hippies, The Nerds, The Double DD’s and more. With all the twists and turns, no one could ever expect who’d land first on the pit stops and who get eliminated. Amazing! Moral of the Story: Luck would always be a factor but brains with luck is what it takes to win. SmallVille Season 5 – Overall, it is a great season but not for Clark. It just keeps pouring and we don’t even get to see a glimmer of light at the end of the season. Moral of the Story: Stay away from anything that comes from Krypton. Lost Season 2 – Things get messy in here. With the opening of the hatch, Pandora’s box is opened. Along with all your theories about the island (The Others, The Monster, The Island itself), confusion sets in as more people and plot points are added. Still, if you want to know what the Island has in store for Jack, John, Kate and the rest of the gang, Lost 2 has them covered. Moral of the Story: Never travel with Oceanic Air. Iron Chef Season 1 – The Secret Ingridients; Flay, Batali and Morimoto. You can’t imagine how these guys cook all 5 dishes in an hour to salivate your taste buds. Moral of the Story: Don’t under estimate Batali.

Filipino Statistics in Qatar
Imagine that! I'm not actually surprised at how many are jailed for whatever reasons but more of the number of deaths by road accidents. The more one should be careful when driving the streets of Doha.76 Women Facing Deportation
THERE are 88 Philippine nationals, 12 males and 76 females, at the deportation centre, official sources said.In addition, a baby was born at the centre. Ten of the detainees have been there for more than a year. Though they have served their sentences, they are awaiting tickets and salary arrears from their sponsors.At the Central Jail, there are two Filipino men and 24 women, including 18 who were involved in “love affairs”.Six are being held for theft and fights with their sponsors. Besides, a baby was born to one of the inmates.At the Umm Salal jail, there are seven Filipino convicts serving terms while four men and one woman are held by the Capital Police, sources said.Out of the eight Filipinos who died in Qatar since the beginning of the year, four were killed in road accidents and the remaining died of cardiac arrest.One of the deceased was Maria Concepcion Suarez Aresta, a 46-year old woman who was reportedly run over by a speeding car near City Center on January 27.Meanwhile, the family of Filipino worker Bernaldo Sampang (38), who died in a work site accident, received QR127,500 as blood money. The rest of the amount, QR22,500, went for the lawyer and other legal fees, sources said.
