Hi from Dubai,

A state of confusion as Dubai has cancelled all New Year celebrations.

This is no laughing matter - even for the cruises and the Beckhams who flew in recently to party at the palm:

Any plans for NYE 09?

Do tell!

Looks like a very honorable thing to do. I was reading this:

and was wondering how can it be that the world powers and the UN on top declare that they want peace in the region. Yet that horrible massacre happens. Why?

In urban America, some people shot off guns to ring in the New Year.
It worrys me!

  That's a tradition! Guns are OK as long as you don't point them at people. Guns are not evil, people are. People don't need guns to kill they can perfectly well do it with sticks, rocks or bare hands

I heard their new year's resolution is to ban new year celebrations. Soon they will be removing January 1st from the calendar...
