To be honest i would have called the police and then see how funny the ejeets thought that was. You have been threatened, why not go a police station and speak to someone about the issue and see if they can send someone round.

The result is normally just in the system for immigration, no hard copy is normally required, and unless things have changed it used to be a very efficient automated system. The pries quoted are normally inclusive.

There was one needing rehoming on Dubbizle the other week, it was with a cat as they are best friends, but as an animal lover i'm sure one extra would not matter too much.

You need to speak to the Head ASAP about your concerns. You need to formally document your concerns in writing to the Head and SMT, also informing them that you are reporting the issues to KHDA. You need to go visit KHDA and get them on the case. KHDA are brilliant at dealing with such issues and will get involved if they see fit. They are in Academic City and you can just walk in and you will be amazed at how incredibly good they are. But tbh I would be exiting out of such a school without question, this a massive breach of safety and a lapse of duty of care. It also says a lot about the ethos of a school allowing such issues to even happen, new or not, there is no excuse; it’s hardly rocket science.

I did see that BBC Lifestyle and Entertainment have at least 1 of the shows I like, but will try the sites you mentioned. Thanks very much :) first you need a project, last you need a tv. together you will find your answer. Thanks Lolacat I know which one you mean. It doesn't have the programs I like unfortunately and I have decided it's time to get a tv so I can get the channels I want. It has a huge choice, and D.. Abbey is on there. You can plug your computer into the TV via an HDMI cable if that helps!

Thank you for your replies!! They managed to get some medicine from India. Unfortunately acupuncture and other homeopathy meds haven't worked. I've tried all different kinds in the past 2 years. Any suggestions of vets who specialize in neurology? I want to make sure its not a tumor :( Try the two vets i mentioned below, they will be able to advise.

It's very common now that "average" middle-class Western expat families can't save anything. If you have to pay rent and school fees out of your own pocket (which is more and more the norm), then you need a *very* big salary if you want to be able to live a comfortable life *and* put significant savings away. We have friends who are earning 60-70k a month who can't save. They don't live anything approaching a luxury lifestyle, they have two second-hand cars that are years old, the real killer is that they have two sets of secondary school fees to pay as well as rent. Yep, know many who have already left and other planning to due to rent and education costs.

I got a pretty hefty 2 kg chicken from Organics on the 20% off weekend - was about 140 AED after discount and i roasted it and had it for lunch until wednesday - so was a pretty good size and (for here) was OK priced. ETA: I haven't lived in Europe for almost 15 years - so can't really compare and when i do go back, don't spend to much time in supermarkets. edited by IzzyOnTheSeat on 29/09/2014 As an Example, a big mother of a chicken, in a french market will set you back around 4 euro.........arh,

Thanks lolacat but just a question, are chicken supposed to eat corn ? http://www.livestrong.com/article/557705-the-disadvantages-of-corn-fed-chicken/ i know it's so expensive to buy organic chicken though. and most probably the chicken i buy is also corn fed. but thanks again, i'll check the spinneys next to my place. If you buy on the 20% off day they work out OK, you usually get a lot more meat on an organic chicken then then "sparrows" in Spinneys. Do you think? Goodness I think they are pathetic comparative to European free range /farm chickens. And soooooooooooooooooo expensive.

Nothing beats a lovely farm raised chicken that wanders around all day eating naturally. However, for that luxury here we have to pay a mortgage for some pathetic meatless creature that could just about feed a cat. So what is the choice? Cheap battery farm chicken full of goodness knows what, Corn fed chicken from countries with strict regulations or Organic.

Hello ladies, I enjoy watching some of the BBC programs and of course ITV has Downton Abbey, so I was wondering how you ladies watch this here in Dubai. I don't think I can get it through DU or Etisalat, what would I need to do to receive these channels? TIA! I'll tell you if you are nice! You can watch, i shall name in cryptic form around the place. Or google the program you want to watch and links will come up you follow, you do not need to download, although some do.

I use Paypal...not really comfortable sharing my credit card information directly with any company plus the currency conversion rates are better with Paypal. Oh, NEVER use Western Union to deal with online suppliers. It's not reliable. I never heard about JD China but some popular chinese stores have a shop on eBay. For instance, buyincoins, I shopped at their actual website and at their ebay store. The quality of the items were surprisingly pretty good and CS team were helpful as well.

2. Whoever planned the Al Ain exit/entrance to DSO from SMBZ road should be deported. It's [i'>dreadful[/i'>. I normally enjoy driving here but some afternoons coming out of Repton the traffic from the Al Ain turnoff is backed right up past the point you have to enter SMBZ road from Repton. You have to force your way through the queue through trucks and buses determined not to let you then pull out from a standstill in to traffic doing 120 kmph. Eyes to the front to see cars pulling in front of you and stopping to push in to the queue and eyes behind to not get hit by someone flying past. I don't have that many eyes, it gives me the horrors. TBH it is now safer to go down (Turn R at roundabout) to the first Nad al sheba over pass only 100 meters down the Al Ain than try to get out where you are, it's quicker. (Even then going back onto SMBZR) or go to the Ras Al khor (fruit and veg market turnoff) and going onto the main road there. Coming out of DSO many are not going down to the Ras al Khor junction (2 ways there) and avoiding Al Ain road altogether it is such an accident hotspot. Everyday there is a crash in that area.

Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place. He is elbowing you out of this family unit, right now he's making things as unbearable as you can possibly stand it hoping you bail out and run. But men underestimate what a mother will take on for the sake of not losing her children. Plus, he has already set a plan in motion to take kids to another country where you cannot follow, if for some reason you file a complaint or try some other tactic. Its worrying that he has prepared for other eventualities while you are still realizing some facts as they come to light. What's working greatly in his favor is how beaten down you already sound. Either this is the result of years of mental mind games and emotionally robbing you of your self-esteem, or he is the type of man that picked a trusting, non-threatening type to begin with. But you are facing the fight of your life and your attitude is not helping. Read up and do your research, you are not the first woman to be in this situation and there are many ways and means to an end. I had a friend in a marriage of mixed culture/race/religion, who got a divorce and stayed on with her own work visa for years until her children were adults, she worked jobs in which she had no interest but she was around her kids as they grew, she has now returned to her home country where her children visit, of two, one child is completely localized ( this is in another Gulf nation) while the other is more Western. The main point is, both children continue to have a bond with both parents. Their marriage was the stuff of nightmares with the torture that she endured, and for her to stand in the sunshine as I see her now, figuratively speaking, was as unimaginable to her in those dark days all those years ago, as it is to you now, and yet there she is. Its not ideal but considering everything, she's alright with how it all turned out. Remember, how he treats you is not who you are. Great last line, good luck to cherpie, remember this quote.

What I find laughable, is how some supposedly intelligent and well read ladies will take their time, sometimes days at a time, to point out to an allegedly idiotic poster that she is not very bright. Again and again and again and again. They don't get tired of this, they can do it all day, even when its quite clear their target just doesn't get it. With all that intelligence you would think, but no. If this were social media #Insanity would be so trending right now. Ironic then that you took the time to read the thread and post on it!

Lolacat - many thanks for your reply. Trying to avoid the scan as my insurance will not cover it. I just wondered if anyone had been through perimenopause in their early 40's? OR if someone has experienced a pregnancy blood test to ever be wrong? @Guinness I do not believe it is a chemical pregnancy but thank you for replying x edited by MollyMooMoo on 28/09/2014 edited by MollyMooMoo on 28/09/2014 edited by MollyMooMoo on 28/09/2014 edited by MollyMooMoo on 28/09/2014 MMM, your insurance will cover if your Dr puts down that you need one due to other symptoms rather than pregnancy test. Ovaries can be devilish things and cause all sorts of specific sharp pain/fluctuations in temperature/bleeding etc that need further investigation. Have a chat with your doctor about it and see what can be done.

I find the idea that a degree is no longer current quite ridiculous. So for example, as a pharmacist with over 20 years experience I have less knowledge than a person that graduated 5 years ago because they have social media??? Apparently so,,,,,, Twitter will get you better ;) So that's where Mr GE is going wrong with his "ancient" degree. He's not on twitter ;) Again, the point is being ignored. Changes relevant to your degree. Wowld you go to a cardiologist who graduated in 1980 then never worked? Since 1980, what things have been developed in THAT field? Things have been cured, changed etc. Once that dr. begins to work again, they will know it all very soon. However, would you be the one to hire that dr? Or will you hire the one who already knows the changes? And, for specialist degrees, there is higher chance or being hired, as it is not an easy to come by degree. For business and marketing, as examples, it is easy to find competition AND it is a degree that thrives on market evolution. In this region specifically, where degrees are like candy, you either hold an older degree with a lot of experience that you could rewrite the new book on it, you hold a reasonably recent degree and have a bit of experience to support it, or you hold a brand new certificate and no experience. You can still get a position with a 15 year old certificate,you will still tick the HOLDS CERTIFICATE box, however when talking about being hired, a 1999 degree with no work experience will place you in the probably not pile. Even a 2006 degree with zero experience will place you there. Yet again you change the goal posts and start adding in NO experience to justify your statements that degrees taken before the advent of social media are not current. Now you are using a Cardiologist as an example, which clearly shows you are not up to date with how the medical profession works, yet you use it as an example.

They do not. Nor did I say they did, if the only entertainment people get in a day is to pick at English.. Yet as this board is occupied by writers, I will direct attention to the précise wording [i'>is no longer current[/i'> This means it is not up-to-date with the latest trends,teachings, and so forth. I supported this point with reference to people who graduated in the early 2000s, when social media had yet to hit the world. Knowing how to pick English is a skill. It is not a qualification. Short of having a degree in English lit., this is nothing beyond two words at the end of the CV… Languages English edited by Londiamond on 28/09/2014 Is no longer current = Has a sell-by date Valid = has a sell by date Current = valid with a however Technical positions that have been supported by work experience bare a stark difference to a marketing or business degree that has sat on the shelf for 10 years. Yet as I reiterate, they are not invalid, they do not hold their value as a certificate received. Why do books continue to be published if all of the info is known? Oh yes, that is right… things change. For drs, lawyers, engineers, accountants, scientists, English lit. specialists, there is little issue. For business or marketing degrees, the one held by everyone, when it boils down to the candidate who graduated last year with no experience vs. the candidate who graduated in 2001 with no experience, the recent graduate will get the position 9/10 times, not because of age, because of the relevance of the degree held to the market of today. edited by Londiamond on 28/09/2014 You are changing the goal posts every time you post trying to justify the your comments. Many who may not be employed now are still keeping up to date and attending CPD's. In the medical profession, one which you state 'there is little issue' regular attendance of CPD is required in order to maintain licences held in various countries for many. Those in the medical profession who may not be working now still do this. Many other professionals in other spheres also attend CPD and keep up to date even though they may not be employed at this moment in time. When you gained your qualification is totally irrelevant nor is whether you have been working recently or not. Social media has no relevance on whether your Uni certificates are current. Substantiate your comment that new graduates will take 9 out of 10 positions available with hard statistical evidence. You can’t. The majority of graduates (not new) will have worked previously post qualification/pre time out so your little comment about no experience slipped in is hardly realistic or accurate. Moreover, this thread was started by a poster seeking relevant information about getting back into the work place after a career break. The last thing anyone attempting to get back into the workplace after time out needs is another to come on and tell them their qualifications are no longer current because of the advent of social media!!!!!

I personally knew of someone who did that- drove from Canada, got all set up in a hotel everything, just to have her kid born on U.S. soil. Some people are really entitlement minded In fairness I can understand why people are entitlement minded. Not necessarily saying driving over the border if you already have Canadian citizenship is fair play but for those especially from countries in turmoil I can fully understand their desire to have an EU/Canadian/more secure passport. So many of us are very lucky to have been born and hold the passports' we do. I also fully understand that but at least they could stay in their new country and contribute to it positively. My mother is a naturalized American. Once she became American, she stayed there and didn't think of leaving... Yes, I totally agree with that Anon.

IWhat a nightmare for you. It may be worth having a company like Jim’ll fix it or an A/c company come out and see if they can suggest anything to help and somehow add another filter? It may be worth you investing in some portable A/c units and then turning off the central A/c. Far from ideal and costly but your choices are limited based on the central A/c design of somehow not sucking all the emissions out.
