Be careful of slopes in the United Arab Emirates



Water in Persian Gulf has cooled down, and local slopes move more close to coast in order to get warm under the sun on shoaliness. Tourists should take into accounting this seasonal danger.
The ground phantom, which painting merges with color of sand, never attacks the person. It is interesting to observe it from a surface of water, if it is possible to notice it on easy turbulences of sand under fins or to a long tail.
The slopes, reaching half ammeter in width, indifferently concern to observers but if the last one shows importunity; - they quickly leave from the persecutor on some meters and fade, becoming practically indiscernible on a sea-bottom.
These fishes are dangerous only in case, if you will touch them, but also if you are running into the water. At slow “kindling” water slopes leave quickly and at once. They are absolutely not aggressive. Entering into water slowly and noisy, swimmers have always an opportunity to avoid contact with the slope.
In Dubai there are a lot of slopes, but painful meetings with them happen extremely seldom. Impact of slope causes a sharp, intolerable, long pain, can lead to dizziness and even a faint.
Suffered from the brown spotty fish obliges you to visit the doctor. The injection from tetanus can be required.

The airline has asked passengers not to make love onboard



Airline Singapore Airlines has in the official order asked passengers of new superliner Airbus A380 not to make love onboard the plane. The given request is explained by the fact that new А380 possesses those 12 glorified private cabins of the first class with double beds, which are not supplied by sound insulation yet. If owners of places will suddenly decide to make love in these cabins, it will bring a lot of noise to other passengers.
the representative of airline has told that to observe those standards which provide calmness of other clients and members of crew is the only thing that they ask passengers onboard. They do not require anything else from the passengers.
Airbuses А380 have already started commercial flights Singapore-Sydney one week ago. In total European corporation Airbus constructs for the Singapore airline 19 superliners of this type, five of which will be delivered in 2008.
As BBC writes, sex onboard the plane is so popular, that in different parts of the world there are definitions for fans of love joys in the sky. In English variant this well-known expression sounds as Mile High Club.
The main reason of such movement popularity relies in vibration of the plane and low atmospheric pressure, which promotes intensity of sensations during the sex.

USA remains the most unfriendly country for tourists



As Times informs, entrance terms to the USA are named unfairly rigid, and workers of the American immigration services - are the most impolite in the world. As representatives of tourist associations of the USA approve, the situation should be changed urgently: ever less travelers comes to America because of excessively strict visa mode and roughness of immigration authorities.
From nearby 44 million people annually coming to New York, only 18 % are foreigners, and on the country these figures still below, despite of potential profitableness of tourism in America. In the near future the government will develop an advertising campaign for attracting travelers to the country, and also will try to reconsider entrance norms.
It is remarkable, that the situation does not vary year from year: similar research has been carried out one year ago, and already then tourists have named the USA the most unfriendly country. In the report of research center RT Strategies it was spoken, that two thirds of travelers are afraid to be arrested after arrival because of an insignificant mistake in documents or inopportunely said word.
