Report them.......cruelty to animals is against the law. If you make enough of a stink they will be inspected and will at least have to clean up their act. Really?,,,, how does Satwa get away with their pet shops than? I'm sincerely asking.

Meant to add- the services you received : I have found the place in town center on the second floor is very reasonable and well done. That is located very close to Salon Ink if you want to try them next time. Sorry I forget the name but it is next to the hello kitty salon Nailstation? Yes that's it. Had a wax and threading there after it was recommended.

You should have definitely checked the prices! They are notoriously more expensive than most salons here but also seems that most of their customers are happy with the services provided- particularly hair color.

I have done this trip a few times. Any particular information you need? For me I enjoyed the American west and focused more on that part and even sidetracked to see the more scenic aspects on one of my trips. Are you more interested in the nostalgia? Cities ? Or scenic?

I find it obnoxious the way the forum gets copy/pasted in articles and the format blatantly looks like a sit down interview. Everything from schools to jinns has been taken from here. A reminder though to not use your real name as a user name or to disclose identifying information....because yes- it's the Internet

The pharmeacy in Mercato has the tests that can tell you how far along you are Also the obvious advice to add to what has been given - I wouldn't share this news with anyone at your employment , post anything at all on Facebook and other social media, and make sure username or previous posts do not have identifying factors. I know this may seem over the top but better to be safe and very discreet while you are here. As others posters have advised unless your married get care and deliver out of the region

Thank you for posting this It has prompted a discussion with my daughter. From what she has explained to me they have fire drills and she has not mentioned anything else A few schools have more added security the past few months I have noticed I think drills are important and I will see if the school plans to have more than a fire drill

Blu-what would you like to know exactly ? My children attend ASD and I can help. They are thriving there! Best decision I made. The older one actually switched from another school and it has made all the difference. It is a very community orientated school and not for profit

Does anyone know what the plans are for this "zoo"? For nearly 10 years I have been hearing that it will be relocated With all the money/ investments going into bigger, better , faster projects you would hope there would really be a plan for these long suffering animals. Instead of another mall how about somewhere for these animals to live out their remaining years that is healthy, comfortable and humane ?!

THAT was your only concern? What about clearly bored and distressed animals in cages far too small for them. Please don't EVER go to this place it's vile. I never posted that it was my " only " concern !!! I also posted that I don't visit that zoo for other reasons which would be a whole other topic. I am not one who enjoys zoos in general as caged animals out of their natural habitat upsets me.

Regardless of it's authenticity...they have committed such an act of atrocity on SOMEONE that I, well words are failing me. I just wanted to know the OP had somewhere to go for some support and comfort before they pull the thread, that's all. I completely agree and was not articulating myself correctly in the written. I meant if it was real at all. Which I know is holding on to such little hope. The idea to even be so evil is beyond what I can express. I'm so full of upset right now I'm just not expressing myself,right Sorry

I agree with the last 2 posters. Adding that when it comes to children and the places that you are entrusting their care in when you are not with them you can never be too concerned! I am hoping the schools are at least in communications concerning this with the parents more than what I am seeing on this thread

Older thread however I am curious if anyone has found the shakeology packets here? I am going back to the US every few months so I can order from there where I have friends following the program but it would be much easier if I could find them here. I tried several stores to no avail. I am looking for a shake mix that is "clean" not artificial. One of my friends lost 90 pounds on it and said it was more of a lifestyle change not diet. She added it to juicing at times too and did a "clean" eating program. I have tried Cambridge here and had a lot of weight loss but I looked aged, lost a lot of hair, and had trouble with my periods. ( apologies for tmi ). Or if anyone on here knows of shake mixes that are similar without artificial sweeteners and not tons of unpronounceable Ingredients please share. I am trying to avoid mixes that need milk added too. Thank you

It's humanity - we are all members of the human race. I can't grasp how anyone can see this and not feel deep sadness and not want to help in some way. I feel such despair for the Pakistani people who as you eloquently posted are victims themselves. Pray for Pakistan I have posted elsewhere and if I come across any information I will post again.

First my prayers and thoughts for those innocent children and countless other victims in the evil that occurred today. I read that they are desperate for blood donations. Is anyone on here aware of anywhere that is doing any type of blood drive? We called a few hospitals and the embassy to no avail. I know it's a long shot to further find information but it is so worth the try to help. Logistically I was told the flight time is short enough to bring in ( I'm not in the medical field and have no knowledge ) so I thought maybe somewhere in Dubai there was a way to help

Well, there weren't any fireworks on City Walk. Just complete chaos of traffic that had been diverted from Beach Road to prevent the Annual Fun Car Parade. Sad that an innocent spontaneous event soo many people participate in to show their national pride has been brought to an end. The city walk ones were cancelled ?

I did not take my children. It is a remote place and I did feel safe there but nothing is guaranteed. Aside from safety/security issues I do not find it as a place children would much enjoy. I did see a few other children there who looked miserable. The family had taken them even though the guide had told them 10 days would be too much and it's not so much a children's experience. Once in the mountains you have the same meal every evening, no plumbing, and very windy cool nights. For me it is THE most beautiful place I have ever visited and I feel blessed to have swam in the most breathtaking beach we have ever seen. Part of the beauty was the solitude. The walks and time to take it all in and relax. It was rejuvenating for the soul. I could not have touched that aspect if I brought children.
