Exploring Abu Dhabi through Clicks and Writes – Weather – whether or not to RAIN?
I wrote here yesterday about the rain coming. In the evening, weather was shy, whether it wanted to rain or not? Finally, a few drops came down, as to make the car more dirty. At night it was breezy and then the lightning started. I thought, wow, an opportunity to capture lightning. I didn’t succeed but. Can you predict when the next lightning will strike after the first one? An interesting phenomenon revisited yesterday. If it was in Kerala, at least I could have had frequent opportunity, as the lightning, thunder and rain, all come together heavily and for longer time. Insha allah, it will rain tonight. After all, it rains only for one or two days here, and it should be celebrated. They say it rained heavily in Fujairah last night. May be, we get to repeat the excitement here tonight.

Historic US visit can benefit region
The visit of the US president Barack Obama to India is of utmost significance to the region (Obama backs a UN seat for India, November 9).
The deals signed for $10 billion in trade with India is expected by some to help to pay for 50,000 US jobs. This will definitely create an interactive flow of personnel and material movements in both countries. The beneficiary of this improved relationship will be the entire region, especially the Middle East. The UAE can gain tremendously in terms of obtaining a larger share of global commerce.
The visit also boosted optimism and hope among the Indian youth and reiterated the need for better education. Mr Obama’s call to “keep dreaming big, huge, gigantic dreams” will definitely motivate the youth in the country.
Improved interaction and agreements in advanced technology and sharing, along with Mr Obama’s announcement that the US would support India’s bid to become a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, calls for applause.
Working together, both countries can create regional peace and prosperity, and work on common goals such as an increasing trade, creating green jobs, procuring affordable energy resources with low-carbon growth, strengthening agriculture and health care, as well as strengthening democratic governance and human rights.
May “together we can” be the renewed mantra of this progressive movement. This truly inspiring visit will definitely be advantageous for the entire region in the years ahead.

Abu Dhabi has now several pedestrian bridges, make life easier for road users to cross across the busy streets. Wish more people use them and make the road safer for drivers and pedestrians.
