In the Majlis of Jusef Anderson at a feast in honour of my Nana - strange name for a Bahraini "Anderson" - even dad does not know why or how Jusef got it - so a bit of a mystery there - even though he was a close family friend
"Historically, this is one of the most important sites in Bahrain. The fort, located on the north coast, was built in the 14th century, but excavations in the area reveal it to be the site of settlements dating back to the Dilmun era, or around 3000 BC. The fort itself is very much a part of Bahrain's history. In the early 1500s, the Portuguese saw Bahrain as a key point to protect their trade routes between India, Africa and Europe. They invaded the island and set up military base at the Bahrain Fort. They strengthened the perimeter and erected new stone towers. The fort is still sometimes referred to as the Portuguese Fort." - from Bahrainguide.org

The trial of 25 key-ring leaders of an all-Shiite alleged terror group that the authorities in Bahrain accuse of conspiring to overthrow the régime continued on 25 November 2010 with the authorities barring scores of international observers, foreign media, and relatives from monitoring the case proceedings inside the court room. The authorities also carried out an arrest of a female relative of a detainee after she insisted on gaining access to the hearing, others were left on the sidewalk or inside near by coffee-shops.

Seef (Arabic: السيف) is a small town in Manama, the capital city of Bahrain. Seef is a result of active reclamation work which has dramatically changed the Bahrain coastline. Surrounded on three sides by the sea, Seef is a new zone of reclaimed land containing luxury apartments, five star hotels and shopping malls. Rents in Seef are reportedly the highest in the entire country. Seef is fast developing into a business centre with many local and multinational companies building their offices in the area. Seef had to its credit, the Almoayyed Tower, which was the tallest building in the country, however it was overtaken by many other structures since 2005.
A Bahraini carrying a child passes a wall Thursday, April 5, 2012, in Barbar, Bahrain, west of the capital of Manama, that is painted with graffiti depicting Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa in a race car, calling for a boycott of this year's Formula One Bahrain grand prix, scheduled for April 22. The Arabic is a signature reading "free men of Barbar." A year after an anti-government uprising forced Bahrain's rulers to cancel the kingdom's coveted Formula One race, the grand prix is again smack in the middle of a power struggle.
