| | Rotating Skyscraper Powered by Wind and Sun in Dubai | | 2008-07-15 15:38:37 | | The Italian architect David Fisher said he is ready to start construction on a "Dynamic Tower" skyscraper in Dubai that will be "the world's first building in motion". The modern construction, which would be energy self sufficient and cost about 700 million dollars to build, will represent an 80-storey tower with revolving floors that give it an ever-shifting shape. The spinning floors, hung like rings around an immobile central column, would offer residents a constantly changing view of the city's skyline and the Persian Gulf. Each floor will rotate independently at different speeds. It will take between one and three hours for the floors to make a complete rotation.Rotating floors are just one of several futuristic features in the building. Using wind and solar power, it will generate more electricity than it uses. Horizontally mounted giant wind turbines fitted between each rotating floor will generate enough energy to power the tower and nearby buildings. 20% of each roof will be e | | By: Solar Energy - Green Lifestyle for You | | |

| | | Why the City of London is right to fear Dubai | | 2008-06-15 00:27:00 | | Senior figures in the United Kingdom government are increasingly concerned about the rise of Dubai as a financial centre and what it might mean for the future of the City of London.They fear that a combination of huge oil surpluses in the Middle East and a relatively low-cost business hub, regulated with a common law legal system, may prove an irresistible lure to financial executives struggling with soaring costs in a global recession.Last week Standard Chartered chief economist Gerald Lyons told journalists in Dubai that he had recently been in a meeting with senior members of the UK government where, for the first time in his experience, genuine concern over the mounting competition from Dubai as a financial centre was expressed "at the highest levels".

It is the largest by population and second largest in surface area. UAE as a country is bordered with Saudi Arabia and Oman on the Arab Peninsula as well as lying on the Persian Gulf. Dubai is different from the other emirates in that it only receives 6% of its revenues from oil, rather most of the money generating sources have been from tourism and the services industry. Dubai is the City built for Tourism all around the year with excellent Hotels, Resorts, Shopping and Sports facilities available throughout the year.A relatively new tourist destination, Dubai has gained in popularity in recent years. It is essentially a desert city with superb infrastructure, liberal policies (by regional standards), and excellent tourist amenities.

Pentru iubitorii maşinilor, o fâşie de asfalt în mijlocul deşertului este o adevărată oază. Din nefericire însă, pasiunea pentru viteză implică şi riscuri pe măsură, iar uneori poate fi fatală. Mai ales într-un loc ca Dubai, unde şosele sunt largi, de calitate, relativ libere, iar benzina se cumpără la cel mai ieftin preţ posibil.
La o populaţie de un milion şi jumătate de locuitori, Dubai a înregistrat anul trecut tot atâtea amenzi pentru viteză excesivă, iar 270 de oameni au fost ucişi pe şosele.
Când vine vorba însă de Golful Persic şi de prinţii cu petrol la purtător, în scenă intră şeicul Marwan, membru al familie regale. Din banii lui a construit o pistă specială, iluminată profesionist, cu un turn de control şi tribune pentru spectatori. Un paradis pentru împătimiţii vitezei de pe ţărmul Golfului Persic.

Cumparata in 2002, pentru 8 milioane de lire sterline, casa de vacanta a fotbalistului englez David Beckham era total nelocuita. Fotbalistul si sotia sa n-au avut timp sa mearga prea des pe-acolo, fiind prinsi in diferite actiuni profesionale.
Astfel, David a considerat oportun si un cadou excelent pentru socrii sai, de a le face invitatia sa locuiasca permanent in Dubai, in vila situata pe o insula exotica, se arata in News of The World.
Tony, 61 de ani, si Jack, 59 de ani, parintii Victoriei Beckham, au acceptat cu bucurie cadoul, mutandu-se deja in luxoasa vila. “Oricine din familia noastra poate sa-si petreaca vacantele acolo”, au declarat sotii Beckham.

I noticed that it is what people are after, because it gives back so much money in return. But one must know where to invest though, because it is not always about winning, generating enormous amount of money, but there is always a risk in equivalent, you can lose a lot of money, too. However, if you can find a property that is really worth your money, you would not hesitate to invest. I came across a website that has a very good investment opportunity for anyone who might be interested. It is the Dubai property where there is no Capital Gains Tax, Income Tax, Tax on Rental Income, and many other that can save you money. Yes, you only profit there, if you do decide to make any investment in Dubai. So, if you are an investor or someone thinking about investing in a property, you should definitely see about the Property in Dubai, because what can you possibly lose when Dubai is considered the latest in luxury property | | By: Simply Me | | |

A big part of the problem is the crossing of the creek, separating the 'old' from the 'new' Dubai, which bottlenecks all traffic shuttling between both parts of town, and between Sharjah and the port area of Jebel Ali. When I went back to Dubai in December, 18 months after I changed my duty station in the UAE for Rome, I saw two new bridges over the creek had been built "while I was away".Two weeks ago they announced the construction of a sixth creek crossing, designed as a new landmark for Dubai with a price tag of US$681: A 1.6 km long bridge, 64 metres wide and 15 metres above the water level. It will have 12 lanes for road traffic and a track for the Dubai Metro. It will be able to handle 20,000 vehicles an hour.
