Fact About Shisha And Cigarette

Fact About Shisha And CigaretteHi readers,

Shisha is a water-pipe in which fruit-scented tobacco is burnt using coal, passed through an ornate water vessel and inhaled through a hose. Many of them whom do not smoke enjoys shisha which comes in various flavor when they socializing. As you know smoking is bad for health and same goes to the shisha too where research revealed.

This fact was revealed by Department of Health and the Tobacco Control Collaborating Centre. Facts which revealed are:

It found one session of smoking shisha resulted in carbon monoxide levels at least four to five times higher than the amount produced by one cigarette. High levels of carbon monoxide can lead to brain damage and unconsciousness.

But measuring carbon monoxide in exhaled breath showed a normal non-smoker’s level to be three parts CO per million parts of air (ppm) (less than 1 per cent of blood not working properly), a light smoker to have 10 to 20 ppm (2 to 4 per cent of blood not working properly), and a heavy smoker 30 to 40 ppm (5 to 7 percent).
The study found shisha smokers had 40 to 70 ppm of CO in their breath – affecting 8 to 12 per cent of their blood.

“Our mouths opened at the level of harm – none of the tests we did showed anything other than shisha is hazardous to health.” – Bernama

So i hope you people got the correct fact about the disadvantages of shisha.

Shisha Bars Up In Smoke

Shisha Bars Up In SmokeOwners of shisha bars in Dubai have complained of a massive drop in business due to new health regulations that have banned outdoor smoking of the tobacco.
Dubai Municipality launched a crackdown, banning smoking near schools, mosques and residential areas, on January 1.
The National Tobacco Control Committee, which drafted the new law, says it will help reduce smoking and improve air quality.
However, the manager of ‘The Grind’ cafe in Al Mankhool has said that the cafe has seen a 40 per cent drop in business after he was forced to take all outdoor shisha smoking inside.
“It’s terrible. It destroys the whole culture of shisha smoking,” manager Mervin Bacheco said.
“People like to sit outside, have a coffee and smoke as they talk.”
He added: “It is having a very serious effect for us.”
Bacheco, from Goa, India, said that the cafe began moves to comply with the regulations about three months ago and has seen a serious drop off in business.
He added that the cafe has done its best to comply with all reasonable health regulations which have now been imposed by the Municipality.
“The cafe will obey the law but it’s disappointing for us,” he said.
A worker at one Bur Dubai-based shisha bar said she would be complying with the new law.
“We have a good record and the municipality have cited us as a positive example, but new regulations seem to come in every day,” she said.
Dr Wedad Al Maidour, head of the National Tobacco Control Committee, has previously said that restricting shisha-smoking to indoors would help to protect the public’s health.
She said that children should not be exposed to adults’ smoke.

Cigarette Alternatives

Cigarette AlternativesA hookah or shisha is a single or multi-stemmed (often glass-based) water pipe for smoking. Originally fromIndia, hookah has gained immense popularity, especially in the Middle East and is gaining popularity in the USA, UK, Canada, and elsewhere. Today, some of the highest quality and most extravagant hookah pipes come from Egypt, Iran and Turkey. The hookah operates by water filtration and indirect heat. It is used for smoking herbal fruits and tobacco, and is often considered to be healthier than smoking cigarettes, although recent studies have shown that it is just as detrimental to a person’s health.

History of Shisha

History of ShishaIn India in the court of the Mughal emperor Akbar following the European introduction of tobacco to India, Hakim Abul Fateh Gilani a descendant of Abdul Qadir Al-Gilani came from Baghdad to India who was later a physician in the court of Mughal raised concerns after smoking tobacco became popular among Indian noblemen, and subsequently envisaged a system which allowed smoke to be passed through water in order to be ‘purified’. Gilani introduced the hookah after Asad Beg, then ambassador of Bijapur, encouraged Akbar to take up smoking. Following popularity among noblemen, this new device from Arabiafor smoking soon became a status symbol for the Indian aristocracy and gentry. The Indian Hookah was designed differently from the Arabian Hookah or Shisha which was invented during the Abbasid Empire in Baghdad. They were different in shape and design.

Sheet music


6.12.10 - This is probably my oldest and most used music book. I love playing the Venetian Gondola Boat Song (Op 30 No. 6) by Felix Mendelssohn because it's in a minor key (F# I believe) and I love minor songs. Songs in a minor key - to me- are like pictures in high contrast: much more interesting if done correctly and harder to pull off, but intriguing if you can.


Look at my book! It is falling apart. So sad. Every time I play through it, a piece falls or gets torn off.


For Elise (Bagatelle No.25 in A minor). She must have been a special girl for Beethoven to name this piece in her honor. Romantic. Music fact of the day: Fur Elise was found and published 40 years after Beethoven died.


6/8 is a difficult time signature...especially in A major/F# minor. I hated counting aloud during piano lessons...well, actually I rarely counted (6/8: one and a, two and a...) during practice sessions and then all of a sudden, in the presence of my strict Russian piano teachers, I counted like a pro. Ha.

My upright


6.12.10 - Happy August! My birthday is a week away.

This week my blog is focused on all things pertaining to my piano. The above picture is of my cute little brown upright piano. I got it when I was about seven when my family moved from South Minneapolis to the suburbs. If you didn't know, I am a classically trained pianist with about 10 years of professional lessons under my belt and have been playing for about 17 years total..wow, that is a lot of time! I didn't practice very much during college because I didn't really have much access to a piano, but now that I'm back home, I've started to play again and although I have my bad days, it is still nice to know that my fingers can fly across octaves when I play the songs that I know very well.


Sometimes when I play, I don't even have to think. My fingers just know where they need to go and I never count anymore (I've always hated counting to keep time), I just remember how the song is supposed to sound and sometimes I change the time signature to suit my mood. Sound lazy? Yeah it is, but I'm not a professional competing pianist anymore, I just play for fun.

My baby grand piano. 
My dad told me when I was little if I kept up with my lessons and competitions he would buy me a baby grand. I don't really remember the details, but let's just say I don't really want one now and it's a good thing because there isn't even room in my house for one. Maybe one day if I have $40,000 or $50,000 around and the space for it, I'll get a black Steinway baby grand, but until then, my upright is just fine.
