Go to Carrefour Buy a wireless router ( around 150-200 dhs - Linksys and Cisco are good brands) Take it out of the box Plug the power cord into the router Plug your network cable into the router Take the CD out of the box and put it into your CD player ( on your computer) Follow instructions to setup your wireless network Then use your iPad from anywhere, making sure the wifi recognizes your wireless network Voila'.

Nah, I looked everywhere, can't find the tapes here. Bought the stick-ons but most came off. Best to do is buy a CD labeling or permanent ink pen and write on the tags yourself.

After much thinking about what exactly lacks here, I came to the conclusion that it is the non-tourist aspect of a city. The local, community, small world kinda life. The shops, the playgrounds, the shaded areas where you can just walk to with a stroller, maybe grab a coffee and a pastry on the way , find a nice park with a bench and read a book while the baby takes a nap. The 'non-designed' spaces, the community, neighbourhood life where each building has its own character and personality. A lot has been invested here in architecture and design. But the scale of everything is too grand for people to appreciate it. When they start scaling down the spaces, maybe being a "person" here will have a different, more pleasantly unique feel. I feel like a chicken in a very beautifully designed coop.

We are from Halifax and we used Air Canada in the canadian portion , then KLM to Amsterdam/Dubai. we shipped our two cats and no issues whatsoever. KLM supposedly has a care system for pets and they take them out, feed them, let them walk around. We used Sea Air international in Toronto. Ask Janine, she's fantastic.

thanks, very helpful :) I always cook my stuffing on the side though, I make one like a loaf (to slice) and another in small balls that get nice and crispy. Why cant paxo be gluten free? Its so yummy with a bit of extra stuff thrown in! I also do it on the side, when it's ready I bring it to the oven and bake it a bit, I serve it in it's own casserole. Mine takes whatever I have or feel like adding to it, I change it every year and they all come out yummylicious: The fruits: Dried fruit, soaked in port, Cointreau or any sweet fruity liquor. I use white and red raisins, also dried or fresh cranberries, orange peel, mango, pineapple, candied ginger and cherries. The bread: About 2 large loaves of roughly chopped bread: french, italian , multigrain (or any other with a tough crust) - roughly chop it and toast it in a pan with olive oil, sage, garlic, rosemary and thyme, dried garlic, salt. If you want to skip this step, get store bought croutons but that might be pricey. The veggies: Diced celery, diced white onions, roasted (or fresh) garlic . The nuts: Walnuts, almonds, macadamia, Brazil nuts, pistachios... roughly chopped.... whatever you like best. The seasonings: 1 quart chicken stock , boiling fresh sage, thyme, rosemary Chicken seasoning In 2 tbsp olive oil, saute'e the onions and celery. Add the garlic, saute' a bit more, do not let it burn. Add the chicken stock ( or water/bouillon) and bring it to a boil. Add the fruits, nuts, let them boil a bit, then add the bread. Stir gently to keep some chunks. Do not make it soupy, ideal is not too dry and not too wet. Adjust the salt/pepper. Stuff the bird. Roast the bird. Merry Christmas :)

May I suggest you look for "Multiplied UAE" group on Facebook? Post your question there, I'm sure you will get a lot of interesting opinions! As for my two, I had a tandem and it worked well, even on international trips. But the twins are older now and there's surely much better strollers out there to choose from! Good luck :) and whatever you do, DON'T buy the umbrella/clip-on combination ( it won't last a week! LOL) MoT <em>edited by MomOfTwins on 17/12/2011</em>

Ladies, make sure you get your baby screened for G6PD enzyme deficiency AT BIRTH, BEFORE the Vit. K is given. Vit. K will seriously harm a G6PDD child. Read more at g6pddeficiency.org.

READ THIS!!!! Can the vaccine protect you if you've already been exposed to chickenpox? Yes, it is 70–100% effective if given within 72 hours of exposure. http://www.vaccineinformation.org/varicel/qandavax.asp <em>edited by MomOfTwins on 05/12/2011</em>

My DD had the same. We would wash with just water, and pat dry. Then apply Extra Virgin olive oil to the area and use a cotton napkin (like old fashioned ones for nose) between bottom and nappy. That always helped in our case. Hope she feels better soon and you too. DON'T pat dry - hairdryer in the cold setting, or warm, from far away, BE EXTRA CAREFUL and it does work. The less you touch it the better.

My twins were on bottle and breast from day 1 as recommended by pedia.....(they were 2.2 and 2.3 kg at birth). The first month was the worst and they were fed bottle and breast every 2 hours.....it got better from the second month onward....if you are Ok with this, talk to your pedia! I nursed til they were almost 4 months old.
