I have recently landed in Dubai and want to find out who all are the cable operators operating in Dubai. Who is the best amongst all in offering Indian Channels and subscription fees? what is the procedure for taking their subscription? Do I need to buy a Dish & receiver from my own to avail their services or it can be taken on rent as well.

Is there any website where information related to above queries is posted?

Why did this happen to me?
When I was in the UK, I did experience culture shock to a certain extent because everything is so different over there. Stores, streets, money, automobiles, English, etc...

But when I was in Dubai, my shock level went back to normal. It felt like America.

Why's that? Why is London so much different than America but Dubai isn't? Is Dubai an American creation?

What kinds of things should I expect? How early should I wait for a choice seat? What can a 20 year old girl do to make sure she isnt bothered by creepy people? Do they check your baggage at all? What size would be most appropriate for a carry-on bag? Does anyone have any good or bad stories of what this was like for them? It's only 4 1/2 hours, but I'm worried since I've never taken this before.

without a visa? is there ANY WAY ON EARTH than i can get to moscow without traveling thousands of miles to the russian embassy in dc or its consulates. i just don't like visas. i like passports - not filling out forms and paying fifty dollars for visas when i just paid a hundred dollars for the passport. i can go to tokyo with just a passport - not the dumb visa. but the russians have to make it so hard for people. i don't understand what a "visa" is anyway - the japanese have a REASON to not have visas, why can't russia learn from the japanese - no visa! so if i show the lady at jfk intl airport my passport, ticket, but no visa, will i be able to get to moscow. or do i have to show the visa once i land in moscow (which means i would have to go BACK to new york). are there "pre-clear" russian agents at jfk. no matter what - im going to moscow - visa or not. if i can go to tokyo, i can go to moscow. passports should be enough, visas should be just people who want to work in moscow!!!!
