The image shows two people wearing traditional Middle Eastern attire. One person is raising two fingers in a peace sign. Confetti or sparkles are visible in the air. The text states that in misyar marriage, the wife is not added to the citizenship document.

The wife is not added to the citizenship document in misyar marriage. (FILE)

More than 20,000 marriages in the UAE are "misyar marriages", according to a judge. He also pointed out that the men and women who choose such confidential marriages, are almost exclusively Arabs.

A misyar marriage is legal in the UAE. It is a contract under which the husband and wife give up several rights by their own free will, such as living together, equal division of nights between wives, the wife's rights to housing, and maintenance money, and husband's right of homekeeping and access etc .

The couple continue to live separately from each other, as before their marriage, but get together regularly, often for sexual relations in a permissible and halal manner.

Although allowed in some Muslim countries, misyar is not popular with many because women lose nearly all their rights in a confidential marriage. A large number of such marriages end up in divorce.

A misyar marriage is one under which a couple get officially married in courts, but later on, the man does not complete

EFTA00755226

the processes of the marriage.

He doesn't add the wife into the Citizenship Document, which is a must so that the wife gets her full official rights, sources said.

Widad Naser Lootah from the Community Development Authority in Dubai, said that misyar marriage is a legal marriage in the country.

"In this, they get married officially and have marriage certificate from the courts. They avoid having children, but if this happens, the children will be given their father's name and will be issued passports. The man is not obliged to spend on the wife and the children. He is exempted from paying for anything for them. However, he can pay from his own will. "

She added: "Women generally accept to get into this kind of marriage when they reach 35 years of age and above and need male companionship.

"These women don't want to be alone. They seek male companionship, and thus accept to get married instead of being alone. In many cases, these women are divorced or widows," she said.

She added that almost all men who seek this type of marriages are getting married for the second time. "In these cases, the man normally hides his misyar marriage from his first wife and children. Thus, he doesn't spend the night with the second wife. He only visits her during the day after work and spends some time with her without his first wife's knowledge. "

She added that the girl's family also doesn't mind such marriages as they want their daughter to have someone in their lives.

"When I was a marriage counselor in Dubai Courts, I received many women who wanted to get into such marriages. I personally don't encourage such marriages, but for some women, it is the best solution for their loneliness. For example, a widow came to me once and needed help for a misyar marriage.

"Her children had gone abroad for higher education, and they were to spend many years away from home. She was all alone, and got a misyar marriage proposal. She accepted it, and her uncle encouraged her to get married. Now she is living happily with her husband. This marriage was the perfect solution for both of them as they don't want to have children. All they want is to have each other's companionship, "she said.

Nadia,

I have read your story several limes and would like to give you my opinion, which could have been a fatal night for you,. there is a publication put out by the NTSB, that details all small aircraft accidents and incidents, a lot are fatal, but don't get the public attention since they are small aircraft owned privately, flying is dangerous, and experience comes with time., I think becoming a flight instructor is a good route to gain time and experience,.

A couple things baffle me about your incident, if you had an alternator failure, why didn't the battery give you power for the Minimum of 30 minuets of operation in an emergency? or do you think it was an alternator failure, and the battery went dead after 30 minuets, not realizing the alternator had failed,. either way, you never keep resetting a popped circuit breaker, you could have started a fire in the cockpit, a breaker pops for a reason, and normally you are given ONE chance to reset, incase it is a weak breaker, remember, a circuit breaker is installed for circuit protection, and if there is a real short, by you resetting this breaker over and over, a real fire could start,. Did you declare and emergency? did you tell the controller you where having communication problems or full electrical failure? there is a big difference, and a serious emergency while in IFR conditions.

You are correct when you said, you should have spent the night in Lakeland, avoiding a single engine night flight, over the everglades in IFR from Gainesville to Opalocka, would have been a good decision. ! remember, being a Captain is all about decision making, some are split second decisions and some are well thought out lengthy decisions, that are done while flight planning.

Did you just rely on the little experience the other pilot had to make weather decisions for you?, you should have know better than to put yourself in this situation,. rushing, free flight time, inexpeiranced pilot, and not looking at the weather is recipe for disaster!!

Remember when we stopped while flying the C182 to Jacksonville to pick up the Boeing, and drove the rest of the way, since I didn't feel comfortable with the weather ahead? what do you think I would have told you, if you asked me whether to fly at night over the everglades, when weather is IFR from Gainesville to Miami in an old C172 you are not familiar with? I don't want anything to happen to you,

Number one lesson being I should have never put myself in the position where I had to make those decisions. Learned !!!

I want to answer some of your questions and add new information :

1. The alternator had just been replaced earlier that day and the mechanic now tells us the cause of our problems was a ground wire coming loose.

2. We were not in actual IMC when this happened. The weather was reported ifr at the airport, there was a layer of clouds beneath us when we lost power. We checked the weather before each leg but at the time it didn't seem bad enough to cancel. The storm had just passed, winds were almost calm, no rain, the only adverse condition would be the broken clouds on arrival and with 696 nexrad on board, we felt comfortable enough to continue and just plan for an approach into KOPF. But it was at night and in an old plane.. I guess this is where experience comes in, and you are right, next time I will choose not to continue under these conditions.

3. We had no indication the alternator failed prior to the battery draining. The alt warning light never came on but it could have been a bad bulb. It sounds like that is what happened. Everything just flickered and all lights went out. At that time we heard a weak broken transmission from atc telling us they lost our transponder, but we were not able to respond until we reset the breaker. We then quickly explained to them we just had an alternator failure and lost all power, including radios and transponder. We specifically told them we reset the breaker only this once and that there was a chance we might lose it again before we reach the airport, in which case we will not reset again. They had all this information and gave us instructions on how to continue in the event it happens. We then lost them again. We had turned all the light switches off, pitot heat, unplugged the Garmin charger, and everything else draining power. We had a heavy load on the battery before the total failure and I thought because we shed most, we were able to get some intermittent power back later just long enough to check in before the approach and get some flaps. We should not have used those flaps at all and maybe we would have had some juice to turn runway lights on.

I know there were some good and some very bad decisions made that night and that's why I wanted to tell you the full story so I can get your opinion on what you would have done differently. Some of the mistakes are obvious now. The day of my first solo, you told me it's always better to wish to be in the air from the ground than the other way around and somehow that night I found myself exactly in the situation you told me to avoid. I am responsible for making that bad decision and all I can do now is learn from it. I don't think I'll forget it again.

Dr' World Callao opens one year ahead of schedule Khaleej Times

South America's largest and most modem container terminal on the west coast, DP World Callao, was officially inaugurated by Peruvian President Alan Garcia Perez and DP World Chairman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.

Global port operator DP World's newest marine terminal, situated close to Peru's capital city, Lima, has opened a year ahead of schedule after 27 months of construction following the granting of the concession in July 2006. Also attending the high profile ceremony were the Minister of State of the UAE, Reem Al Hashimy, DP World CEO, Mohammed Sharaf, authorities of the Peruvian Government, representatives of the business community and top executives from DP World. In his speech, DP World Chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem said: "We are pleased and proud that DP World Callao has joined DP World's global network and look forward to its bright future. We believe Peru to be exemplary in economic and political stability in South America. It is also the ideal entry point for the west coast of South America, which is a dynamic economy with a large cargo market and strong trade growth."

DP World CEO Mohammed Sharaf added: "DP World helps create opportunities for the communities and economies in which it operates. DP World searches for, trains and employs local talent, and through its work brings in not only containers but more trade, more

EFTA00755235

jobs and more income for the entire economy. This in turn is translated into more income for the government and better services for the people, which means more children going to school and more people accessing vital health care."

DP World Callao has an operating annual capacity of around 850,000 TEU (twenty foot equivalent container units) and is located in the south zone of the port of Callao, covering an area of 225,000 square metres. Its two berths, each 350 metres with a 16 metre draft, are capable of handling two post-Panamax vessels of around 8,000 TEU at the same time. The terminal has six Super Post Panamax giant gantry cranes, 18 rubber tyred gantry cranes (RTGs) and state-of-the-art information technology. Its construction represents the most important investment in the history of the Peruvian port industry, with hundreds ofmillion dollars invested.

Global Environment awardMeanwhile, DP World's London Gateway has been recognised for its outstanding commitment to the environment at a prestigious awards ceremony celebrating the best of the international maritime community. The team behind the developing deep-sea container terminal and one ofEurope's largest logistics parks on the Thames estuary in Essex were awarded the Environmental Protection prize in the Lloyd's List Global Awards ceremony at the Dorchester Hotel in London on September 29. London Gateway's Chief Executive, Simon Moore, said that the award was recognition of the outstanding hard work that has been put into the environmental management programme at London Gateway.

Garcia: Large-scale projects boost Peru's development  
Andina

Lima, Sep. 30 (ANDINA). President Alan Garcia said Thursday that the $500-million Muelle Sur container terminal in Callao is one of the major projects undertaken by Peru to boost its development.

"Peru has successfully undertaken large-scale projects and initiatives," said Garcia Perez, "the new container terminal will put our country on the same level as major ports on the West Coast ofSouth America, from Panama to Chile."

President Garcia said that "this project will not only widen the doors of the country" but will also help overtake other terminals in the region, "regaining the privileged position the Callao port once had."

"Now, Callao re-emerges strongly to turn other ports into alternative and secondary terminals to this one, which has historically, geologically and geographically been the port of South America."

The Peruvian leader noted that the construction of this port has been completed eight months ahead ofschedule. The 30-year concession to develop and operate this new container terminal in Callao's southern zone was granted to DP World Callao in July 2006 and construction works started in April 2008.

President Garcia went on to say that initiatives like Muelle Sur are only possible with investment and stability, "without which large-scale projects such as Chavimochic, Chin Piura and Majes could not be executed."

"Further on, the Inter-Oceanic Highway connecting Peru and Brazil will also be completed as well as the ports on the jungle rivers and the large airports such as Chincheros in Cusco," he added.

DP World partnered with Peru-based Uniport on the project in Callao, which is already Peru's largest port and one of the largest in South America,DP World is a subsidiary of the debt-ridden government-owned Dubai World and operates at least 50 terminals in 31 countries.

DP World Callao inaugurated

AME info

South America's largest and most modem container terminal on the west coast, DP World Callao, was yesterday officially inaugurated by Peruvian President Alan Garcia Perez and DP World Chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem.

Global port operator DP World's newest marine terminal, situated close to Peru's capital city, Lima, has opened a year ahead of schedule after 27 months of construction following the granting of the concession in July 2006.

Also attending the high profile ceremony were the Minister of State of the United Arab Emirates, Her Excellency Reem Al Hashimy, DP World CEO, Mohammed Sharaf, authorities of the Peruvian Government, representatives of the business community and top executives from DP World.

In his speech, DP World Chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem said: "We are pleased and proud that DP World Callao has joined DP World's global network and look forward to its bright future. We believe Peru to be exemplary in economic and political stability in South America. It is also the ideal entry point for the west coast of South America, which is a dynamic economy with a large cargo market and strong trade growth."

DP World CEO Mohammed Sharaf added: "DP World helps create opportunities for the communities and economies in which it operates. DI' World searches for, trains and employs local talent, and through its work brings in not only containers but more trade, more jobs and more income for the entire economy. This in turn is translated into more income for the government and better services for the people, which means more children going to school and more people accessing vital health care."

DP World Callao has an operating annual capacity of around 850,000 TEU (twenty foot equivalent container units) and is located in the south zone of the port of Callao, covering an area of 225,000 square metres. Its two berths, each 350 metres with a 16 metre draft, are capable of handling two post-Panamax vessels of around 8,000 TEU at the same time. The terminal has six Super Post Panama giant gantry cranes, 18 rubber tyred gantry cranes (RTGs) and state-of-the-art information technology. Its construction represents the most important investment in the history of the Peruvian port industry, with hundreds of million dollars invested.

For those of you who are new to the list and those who are long time faithful followers of my burger blog, this is the most recent installment of my quest for the greatest burger experience in the world. Read it and eat! Today for the first time we (sandi, george and myself) went to the much heralded, brand new Bill's Bar & Burger on 51st between Fifth and Sixth right in Rockefeller Center. Naturally, the name itself was begging to be reviewed by the Burger Safari staff. And we were thrilled.

Today for the first time we (sandi, george and myself) went to the much heralded, brand new Bill's Bar & Burger on 51st between Fifth and Sixth right in Rockefeller Center. Naturally, the name itself was begging to be reviewed by the Burger Safari staff. And we were thrilled.

Despite a being a slightly cavernous space, it is inviting in that special "it's a men's bar,

EFTA00755246

w/ sports on the flat screens, huge beer selection, great drinks and awesome bar food" kind of way. Read below for a more detailed description of the ambiance, as it adds materially to the experience. But, burger afficionados, It's the fare that demands the attention.

Nothing pretentious about Bills. You're there to eat, drink and make merry. And, despite small pockets of weakness (and one distinguished, world-class, best-of-breed culinary victory) it offers some of the best of the high-end bar food tidbits we have experienced in quite a while.

The menu is fabulous: wings (in 3 flavors), jalapeno poppers, onion rings, spinach and artichoke dip (some salads for the ladies, but please don't distract me with such drivel). They even had something called pizza soup! I did not try it but anyplace that can take soup, one of the more dreaded foods in my world, and turn it into pizza, is a shrine to fat kids everywhere.

But, junk food junkies, we were here for the burgers. It is, after all, Bill's BAR AND BURGER. So here's the meat of the matter: the burgers here are VERY solid. Nice uniform patties. Great shape and ideal thickness for my palate. Big enough for a solid burger experience, filling, satisfying, but not so much that you feel like you're going to give birth to a small farm animal shortly after eating. I ordered my burger (the "classic") with jack cheese. They did not ask how I wanted it cooked and I did not offer. I don't know if this is because they cook it only one way (as is the case, for example, with 5 Guys), or if they forgot (they have only been open for about 2 weeks). The good news is that it came medium - just the way I like it. It was centered perfectly on the bun - a soft, potato roll like bun, untoasted, with sesame seeds on top. Also one of my favorites. It came on a no-nonsense plate of proper size - smaller than a dinner plate and larger than a bread plate. I like that. The accoutrement -i.e. the lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle that accompanied the burger, were VERY fresh, unblemished, not at all soggy, mashed up or indiscriminately piled up on the side of the plate. This is very difficult to do and, while I personally detest lettuce and tomato on a burger, most people love it and I respect the art of the delivery and the quality and freshness of the components.

The burger was excellent. The cheese was perfectly melted. I ordered jalapenos on the side (unfortunately they had only soggy, slimey, pickled, shredded jalapeno, which detracted materially, but I'm sure this can be remedied with a call to the owner). As usual I requested jack cheese (as stated above), ketchup and mayo. The burger was hot (perfect, actually) so you knew it was fresh off the grill. It was perfectly juicy. The combination of the right temperature, the melty cheese, the ketchup-mayo, and the excellent potato roll-like bun delivered the essence of meaty-cheese-salty-gooey goodness where the entire unit coalesces and devolves into that quintessentially creamy, finger-licking experience. The one missing ingredient was the crunch - a Farkas prerequisite for the five star rating - but through the creaminess one could taste and experience the consistency of each unique component - it was very, very solid.

But wait!! There's more! Move thee not a single muscle! From the side of the room arrived an imp from the 8th chasm of Dante's Inferno bearing an unexpected gift: the BBB slider. And it was here, revelers, that my soul was lifted to new heights. Allow me to explain:

The BBB slider can only be described as that place where White Castle meets cheese steak meets burger. "How is this possible," you ask? Such an experience would render mere mortals incapacitated from the euphoria of the very mention! But not I. Here is what they have done:

The BBB slider comes delivered as what appears to be 3 to a plate - an oval plate - placed side by side. They are served with american cheese, sauteed onions and pickels. The cheese is very melty and the buns looks like larger, buttery-er versions of the previously considered inimitable White Castle Bun. The meat (again served without any inquiry as to my cooking preference) was thin (but not flimsy) - about half the thickness of the "classic" I described above.

I approached with a delicate curiosity and reached for the first burger. I reached for it from the top and the bottom - the first position, as it were, of burger eating: thumb on the bottom and 2 fingers on top. Having gripped it I started to lift it from the plate. But wait! Something seemed terribly wrong. Could it be? Yes! Unbelievable! It was not actually 3 separate burgers on the plate. The meat was basically a single elongated slab, placed on 3

EFTA00755247

buns with the cheese, onion and pickel placed along the slab at the appropriate distance

intervals thus creating the illusion of 3 separate burgers! To eat each "individual" slider one had to actually cut them apart. Genius! The meat and cheese was hot and the buns seemed lightly buttered and steamed, like soft dinner rolls. The cheese fused with the sauteed onions and just-perfect pickle slice which held everything in perfect position under the bun. These babies were perfect! Crunchy, soft, creamy, spectacular vessels of plaque inducing cholesterol! 3 bites to a slider with each needing to be physically cut from the "loaf." Ladies and Gentlemen - I give these sliders the coveted 9.5. Two plates with a few pints of lager and I'm spent. An awesome new accomplishment.

Now, all of the above were accompanied by milk shakes and fries. Unfortunately the fries are poor. They were a little chewy and a bit stale tasting. The first order came room temperature so I sent them back. The replacement order was not much better so I have to take away .75 points for poor fries. The milk shake, however, was a very strong contender for the previously declared champion of the killer of those lactose intolerant: The Burger Joint. The variety, however was much better than the burger joint - we had one chocolate, one strawberry and one cookies and cream. They were excellent - really - but could have been a tad colder and come 5 minutes faster - they took 10 minutes to deliver. BUT, dear friends, they were worth the wait.

Now for the ambiance. It's a very big space, but very versatile: perfect for the pub (awesome beer list and great bar scene - I hear it has become quite the after-work meat market - the irony is not lost), great after work drinks and food, and an ideal family lunch spot on saturday and sunday. On those days it is uber kid friendly. When we got to our table we were given crayons and pictures to color. George wanted some too so I shared mine.

There is an unusually great variety of seating options: high tables w/ tell stools by the window, bar seating at the bar, regular tables, leatherette booths (we sat in the upstairs ones- they look more comfortable then they are - I'd avoid them actually - though the ones downstairs may be better), and banquette tables. I don't like the faux classical italian restaurant cloth backed vinyl table cloth but rumor is that they're replacing these with fabric ones.

The downstairs is very cool. It feels like a subway station with lots of people at everything ranging from picnic tables to conventional seating. But in an unusual NYC twist, BBB ALSO has a real live take-out window for lunch and dinner - like a fast food restaurant that serves their regular menu to go.

So, my sumptuous readers, here it is: if you are craving the burger experience, go here. Killer fabulous sliders (gotta have 'em - best ever), great burgers, excellent shakes, awesome beer list and an ideal ambiance for the consumption of the above at lunch or dinner in almost any capacity. The fries are a tragedy, but they do not materially detract from the otherwise world-class addition to our meaty-cheesy world. I'm giving it an 8.75.
