The Official Invitation
This is the Official Invitation for the Festival. The 7th Women's Art Festival of Aleppo started on the 30th of November 2007, and I was scheduled to begin with my project on the 8th of December. Unfortunately, the political police invaded the festival's opening and had it closed the same night. It was a big disappointment for the festival's director Issa Touma and the present artists. Issa was taken for interrogation, but set free after 6 hours of detention. He told me they just let him waiting in a empty room for the all time, and then let him go with no explanation...
This was the second major set-back on this Festival's edition. First they were offered the usage of the Old Health Center exhibit hall for the festival, which would allow it to happen in a period of ten days, concentrating the artists and the art events in one building and in a shorter period of time. This would also increase the impact of such an event, of course. Later, they got the news that the space was no longer available, though it has been abandoned for many years. That was the moment when Issa Touma and the festival's organization decided to spread the program over a few weeks, enabling all the works to be exhibited in their home base, the relatively small Le Pont Gallery in Aleppo.
And then, this... Closing the event on the day it begun! It's hard to work against all odds.
So, I was asked if I could come later, as the organization would need time to reorganize the event. On the day I was supposed to fly to Aleppo I managed to postpone my tickets (very nice people at www.tickettracker.nl) and fortunately our visas were valid until March 2008, so we were able to postpone the all thing. The sponsors were also ok with it, so it was with a slightly awkward feeling that I just stopped thinking about the project and concentrated on Christmas instead!
But now it's for sure! We are coming!

Problem: HP Printer not connecting to my laptop.
I had an issue while connecting my 2 year old HP printer to my brother's laptop that I had borrowed for starting my own business. I used a quick google search to fix the problem but that did not help me.
I then decided to get professional help to solve my problem. After having received many quotations from various companies, i decided to go ahead with Online Tech Repair (www.onlinetechrepairs.com).
Reasons I chose them over the others:
1) They were extremely friendly and patient with me during my initial discussions and responded promptly to my request.
2) Their prices were extremely reasonable.
3) They were ready and willing to walk me through the entire process step by step and were on call with me till i got it fixed.
How did they do it
1) They first asked me to state my problem clearly and asked me a few questions. This was done to detect any physical connectivity issues with the printer.
2) After having answered this, they confirmed that the printer and the laptop were functioning correctly.
3) They then, asked me if they could access my laptop remotely to troubleshoot the problem and fix it. I agreed.
4) One of the tech support executives accessed my laptop and started troubleshooting.
5) I sat back and watched as the tech support executive was navigating my laptop to spot the issue. The issue was fixed.
6) I was told that it was due to an older version of the driver that had been installed.
My Experience
I loved the entire friendly conversation that took place with them. They understood my needs clearly and acted upon the solution immediately. Being a technical noob, i sometimes find it difficult to communicate with tech support teams. It was a very different experience with the guys at Online Tech Repairs. You can check out their website www.onlinetechrepairs.com or call them on 1-914-613-3786.
Would definitely recommend this service to anyone who needs help fixing their computers.
Thanks a ton guys. Great Job....!!
