Is there any waves to talk of on Jumeirah Beach?

Is it worth taking a Surf board,? I have a top quality body board too which is probably a better proposition.

I will be there next week, thanks in advance..

I want to go there to help dig artifacts for the Cairo museum, meet the regular non tourist folks, immerse myself in the culture of the people, hopefully learn the language and make friends for life.

I need some informaion for an essay I am writing, so I would appreciate your help with the next few things.
I cannot really understand, reading the answers here, is it an obligation for women there to cover their hair or not? People usually say it is, but then some people mention some cities in which they say it isn't and there are also few of them who say that it is obligation only to cover legs and hands?
Also, what about working for women in Saudi? What percentage of them attends university? What occupations do women choose most often and what percentage (at least roughly) of them work?
I know that Islam accepts divorce, but what about society? How does the society act towards a woman that is divorced, if her husband asked for divorce? What about child custody?
Can a woman really get a divorce if she wants that?
I heard that very few people have two or more wives today. Is that true (percentage, if possible)?

What are requirements for foreigners who want to teach English in Dubai? Do they have to be native English speakers or not? If they don't, do they have to be graduated professors of English or not? Would it be enough if a person holds a certain degree in TOEFL or Cambridge? If yes, which degree? In what type of schools are there those positions? What about holding private lessons? Finally, how well is paid this job? Thanks a lot

On a recent trip to Israel I was stunned by the rudeness of the locals, there I was stood at the Whaling Wall with my harpoon waiting for one to swim past, when I noticed people pointing at me and laughing, now I admit I have a rather large nose but there is no need to ridicule me! Sods!

You guys have got me thinking about South Africa more than I have in years.
You also know what I think of your present so-called government.

Realistically speaking - without the usual cheerfulness in spite of the dark reality - what happens to South Africa in the next 10 years or so?
I know the usual suspects will insist that the country is being run by misunderstood saints, but really, all B.S. aside, what happens to the land of gold and diamonds in the coming decade?

An elderly fisherman was at home, dying in bed, when he smelled his favourite aroma, chocolate chip biscuits bahing. He wanted one last cookie before he died, so he crawled to the kitchen, reached up to the cookie sheet on the table and grasped a warm, moist chip. His wife suddenly hit his hand with a spatula and yelled, Leave them alone. They're for the funeral.
