Egyptian Blogger taken in Detention
I just received the following message from Alaa. I am still awaiting more details. Let us just hope this is not the beginning of a new trend. We need to act fast and cohesively to prevent a return to the higher restrictions on speech we endured before. More soon.
"Abdolkarim Nabil Seliman is a 21 year-old Egyptian student of law at the
Azhar University, Damanhour Campus, a women's-rights activist and a
correspondent for Copts United.
In addition to writing at Civic Dialogue, he also publishes at a blog he
maintains.
On Wednesday 26 October 2005, Egyptian State Security took Abdolkarim
from his home, and confiscated hard copies of his writings. He is now on
his way to an unknown detention. Three Egyptian bloggers visited
Abdolkarim's family. The family attributed the state security raid to
his writings, although it was not clear if his blogging is directly
related. According to his brother, Abdolkarim's relations with Islamist
Fundamentalists in his neighborhood of Moharram Bek, Alexandria, are
tense. It is possible that the fundamentalists have filed a security
complaint that led to his detention."

Woodville Palace is scarcely half a mile from the “Heart of Shimla” or the Shimla Mall, the main shopping center in Shimla and yet away from all the hustle and bustle of the town. There is a public road from Woodville Palace that leads to the Mall, which is only a twenty minutes walk . Woodville Palace is located halfway between the Chief Minister’s official residence and the Governor’s House. It is encircled by the natural picturesque scape of towering pine and deodar forests. Woodville Palace is a heady mix of turn-of-the-century old world charisma and a contemporary sensibility that caters to the wishes of the present day traveler. The railway station is just 5 kms from Woodville Palace and the nearest bus station just 3 kms away.

Ideal wedding location, Woodville Palace is the ideal location for a marriage. With its lush ivy, stretches of rose ensconced garden, quaint turrets and truly a romantic heritage in every sense. The owner’s parents lived happily ever after in Woodville, after a wedding that was considered a rebellion.
The Raja of Jubbal was aghast with the idea of his pedigree Rajput son marrying in to any other community but Rajput and Princess Ourmila was from the Sikh state of Kapurthala. Thus, after many a tryst and opposition to the stringent protocol of that time, true love in it’s heart wrenching battle for salvation prevailed.
Quite a few weddings boasting dignitaries and historic figures from across the world have taken place in Woodville. When the present Rajkumar’s parents had their wedding the Chief Guest was The Viceroy Lord Linlithgow and his wife with their two daughters, Lady Joan Hope and Lady Doreen Hope.
The first grand wedding that had taken place in the Jubbal royal family was that of The Raja of Jubbal who married the daughter of the Maharaja of Gondal, Princess Leila Ba in 1919. The Maharaja of Gondal was knighted by the British as the Grand Commander of the Star of India (G.C.S.I.) and the Great Commander of the Indian Empire (G.C.I.E).
Woodville was a rather generous wedding present given by the Maharaja to his daughter. There is a Gondal hut built in the garden by Prince Birendra, purely for nostalgic evocations. In the year 1940, Yuvraj Jhalawar married the Princess of Jubbal. In the year 1948, Princess Devender Kumari of Jubbal married the Yuvraj of Surguja.
The photographs that one sees of the dining room are of it as a royal banquet hall in its original form. For those interested in a truly royal wedding we provide you with the location, our palace and a list of wedding planners, who do everything from the mehendi, churis, ghungat, sehra to the dance sequences.
