Please tell us which country and city you'd like to see the weather in.

Ibra

Ibra (Arabic: ابراء‎) is the second largest city in the Ash Sharqiyah Region of Oman. It is located about 170 km (2 hours) from Muscat and has a population estimated at 55,000 people.

Ibra is one of the oldest cities in Oman and was once a centre of trade, religion, education and art. The city acquired its importance as an important meeting point at the base of the Ash Sharqiya. Ibra is home of the huge Al-Harthy tribe, one of the biggest and most powerful tribes in Oman. The Al-Maskary tribe and the Al-Riyamy tribe are also both very prevalent in Ibra.

Etymology

Historian do not agree on the origins of the name of the city. Some suggest it is derived from the Arabic verb (Arabic: ابراء للذنب‎) which means a purification of guilt.

History

Ibra predates the Prophet Muhammed's calling. The city contains many castles and old mousques.

Ibra has become a more modern city since 1970 under the reign of Sultan Qaboos. Improvements include connections to Muscat via a two-lane highway, which has increased tourism. Communications have been improved to include broadband access, and there is now a substantial hospital. Ibra provides three choices of higher education: Ibra College of Technology, Ibra Nursing Institute, and beginning in the fall of 2010, A’Sharqiyah University. There are now two hotels in Ibra, and tourism is promoted in the area.

    Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia

    The Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) is a biogeographic regionalisation of Australia developed by the Australian Government's Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities. It was developed for use as a planning tool, for example for the establishment of a National Reserve System.

    Within the broadest scale, Australia is a major part of the Australasia biogeographic realm, as developed by the World Wide Fund for Nature. Based on this system, the world is also split into 14 terrestrial habitats of which eight are shared by Australia. The Australian land mass is divided into 89 bioregions and 419 subregions. Each region is a land area made up of a group of interacting ecosystems that are repeated in similar form across the landscape.

    The most recent version is IBRA7, developed during 2012, which replaced IBRA6.1.

    That's Just The Way It Is

    by: Oppera

    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again
    but guess who's beatin'
    that's just the way it is
    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
    ah yeah surprise surprise
    bet you never thought you'd see me burn so bright
    yo soy caliente como el sol
    bet you didn't know what i would be like
    when i found my pride
    when i hit my stride
    don't even try put out the fire
    you lie estupido
    oh no
    not even a notion of emotion
    with the motion of the ocean
    on my soul
    get me down
    your foolish ways will only serve to make you drown
    that's right
    whatever trick
    tu lo veras
    you'll see
    i pee pee now
    bounce
    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again
    but guess who's beatin'
    that's just the way it is
    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
    hay cono
    porque
    can you tell me why
    there's always got to be some fucking negativity
    basta ya
    you'd think by now and after everything we've been through
    we'd put our differences aside
    and say whassup fool
    but nevermind
    i'm not here for preaching
    just for rock 'n roll
    a little dash of azuquita sweeten up my flow
    latina mama finally got her time
    pave the way
    cock the glock
    you will obey
    now muevete
    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again
    but guess who's beatin'
    that's just the way it is
    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
    que pasa dude
    te sorprende que yo
    he llegado a tanto
    como los tiempos han cambiado
    a mi no me importa lo que diga la gente
    no me importa lo que piensen
    las malas lenguas siempre seguiran hablando y criticando
    a mi no me ofenden
    los que se dediquen a rebajar a los demas
    son los mismos que pagaran
    y algun dia se tendran
    que enfrentar con la verdad
    no escupes pa' arriba
    porque en la cara te caera
    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again
    but guess who's beatin'
    that's just the way it is
    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
    that's just the way it is
    that's just the way it is
    that's just the way it is
    no no no no no no no no no
    what's the matter what's the matter
    lost your swagger
    now you're fronted out
    thought you'd be all the rage
    assuming you could keep me down
    i know
    it's such a blow to your self-confidence
    you got no defense
    too bad
    you should've recognized the opportunity you had
    you could've been an ally
    now you're all alone and mad
    mopin' around outside my gigs
    watchin' my peoples comin' in
    party on
    oppera house packed
    prackata
    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again
    but guess who's beatin'
    that's just the way it is
    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
    that's just the way it is
    made my way back to the top
    never thought you'd see me again

    played the game and now you're gone
    open your eyes and look around
    there's a new sheriff in town
