Villa prices at Jumeirah Park and Jumeirah Islands, Nakheel’s exclusive residential developments in Dubai, have plunged up to 45 percent in the last four months, Arabian Business has learnt. Brokers across the UAE said speculators were desperately scrambling to off-load property before prices fell f...

Hotel rates are down 40% as well. That's good news. I used to enjoy my Fujeirah Hilton - Hatta Fort - Ajman Kempinsky weekends away.

Local bloke I know said his friend was with Mo last week.

Never before in history has a building collapsed at freefall speed like that.
but on Sept 11 they had three of them!

There are a few films on google video where you clearly hear explosions and see witnesses talking about what they heard.

Bit quiet though.

I remember when it used to be wall-to-wall Emirates birds - you couldn't get through the door on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday nights!


The pub in the Ramada for me - Old Vic.

To be honest Choco, I prefer a pub without a band. I leave the Old Vic as soon as I see that bloke and the Filipina getting ready!

Damn...!

Personally I stopped watching FOX News long time ago. Can't stand that piece of sh*! aka Sean Hannity. I'm so happy about getting MSNBC full time now. I don't know about American media being just propoganda but must admit that it has a very narrow domestic coverage only and the difference I noticed...

It's working for me.

Yeah, damn those engineers for not constructing the world's largest skyscrapers to withstand airplane hits and full tanks worth of burning jet fuel for a couple of hours. Those of you who believe that the US government used demolition explosives to blow up the buildings are complete morons. http://...

She's a clown.

Wasn't it Hitler who said 'the bigger the lie, the more people will believe it.'?

Chocoholic wrote:Hey don't talk to Kanelli like that. She's a great person!

She called me a moron. Fair's fair.

You are both correct, it was constructed to withstand a plane hit and an earthquake. No one fathomed that a 747 would be launched into it. Also, the reason the building came down is because the fuel started to trickle down the building's frame (while on fire). This severly weakened the structure of...

Well K, I hate to say it, but yes they were built to withstand plane impacts! It certainly wasn't the first time that a plane had crashed into a skyscraper. You are sorta correct Chocs. Yes they were built to withstand a plane impact, but those were planes dating from the 60/70's. The planes built ...

Why not?
Do you expect them to have a 'no indians' policy at the door?

Left the office at 5.30, arrived at 8 (half-time) and left 10 minutes before the end (at 1-1) therefore missed the penalty shoot-out (Milan won).

Not my most rewarding evening out.

Why didn't they do it on a Friday or Saturday afternoon?

That's why I'm a bit choosy about where and who I eat from.
