What a s**t rule. What about the employers? Are they free if they lose the case? "Workers who lose their case in a UAE labour court will be banned from working in the country for a year, the Ministry of Labour has said." http://www.arabianbusiness.com/563627-lose-labour-case-and-you-are-b...

Does anyone know how anything about product design+production (e.g. a laptop accessory) and its patent registration in UAE or other countries? Is a patent automatically enforced in other countries if we register in one country? Or must we register in every country?

Yeah, I got no choice anyway. I need the money and have nothing to lose. Now that I'm making "trouble" for them (ex-company), the only problem is if they put a labour ban (winning or losing)! An employee has actually one year time to complain after visa cancellation and worked with other c...

Ewwwwww! er in general I'd have to say no we don't! SOme hair is fine, it's nice trimmed. But a whole rug that you could virtually plait and gel into various styles is hideous. Either trim or wax that sucker. Hair and sweat... ew! Glad that I'm not THAT hairy! I wonder if waxing (for trimming) is c...

MCL, I mean trimming but by waxing (permanent), not by shaving (temporary).

It depends on which part

Almost any case here actually goes to mediation/counseling bodies/sections. You need a formal letter (if unreconciliable) from these bodies in order to open a case in the court. Example: FZA or Ministry of Labour's labour dispute section, family guidance & reconciliation section (at dubai court)...

I was about to choose the second one, but since that my visa just expired couple of days ago, I'm officially "unemployed". Still have one month grant period for keep looking a new one before being illegal resident. I guess no need for visa transfer, NOC, or anything since I'm not "own...

to make a check for testicular cancer unless it's all covered by your insurance, avoid hospitals in dubai/UAE. they're too much expensive. i spent 300+ dhs just for sore throat! even many GCC nationals go abroad (i found many of them when i lived & went to a good private hospital in bangkok) fo...

I don't know if it has been discussed. As we all know that many people have no choice than to flee out of the country because they didn't want to go to jail and couldn't pay the installment of cars/properties when they were laid off. If there were mechanism about "financing transfer" from ...

there are lots of barcode formats. the most common are EAN13, UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8. and those numbers are not just there. first, each registered entity (manufacturer of the product) is assigned some prefix, remaining numbers, and lastly a check digit (based on certain formula). each barcode scanner b...

Meteor Shower to Streak Across UAE Sky 10 August 2009 KT DUBAI — Hundreds of meteors — the falling rocks from the annual passing of a comet — will light up the sky above UAE on August 12, astronomists said.

all reputable barcode readers definitely are able to read EAN13 (the most common format). the only thing is to make sure to set it properly (read the manual about prefix, suffix, check digit). normally a discussion on formats or how the scanner behaves must be agreed between the hardware vendor (bar...

I had always thought it was the language of pixies ! Each decoder had a pixie that reads the lines and spaces calling them out and another that translated it into good ol English ? more complex 2D barcode format such as PDF417 or DataMatrix contains more information inside. for example the one prin...

Lots of things to look, my friend. But it all depends on the software application you use/build. Are you a software developer? What development tools? What database? What kind of application? Basically the scanner is nothing more than regular keyboard, it scan and display the numbers. Just like when...

you can't seem to differentiate the words "sports sedan" and "SUV" (clue: "if I'd choose a compact & budget SUV")

everybody have their own preferences. despite i'd choose a sports sedan for next, what's wrong by choosing the same thing again? however, unless you're a car tester who had tested many cars or owned it yourself, it's said "you wouldn't know until you experience it yourself". if i had more ...
