Le Noir, the dark side of cirque,
features over 20 of the greatest acts
on earth including spinning metal
wheels, acrobatic stunts 30 ft. high,
jaw-dropping spins on roller-skates
and the Columbian Wheel of Death,
performed in a remarkable 360-degree custom-built stage setting,
bringing the audience closer to
performers like never before.
How many performers are there?
Over 20 award-winning athletes; who
are guided by impeccable spatial
awareness, balance and stamina.
Each performer contributes to the
unreal atmosphere as they glide
through the air, swinging through a
blur of hands and feet.
What makes you distinct
from the rest of the circus?
Never before has a cast of this caliber
been seen in the region. The original
concept behind Le Noir was to take

as both beach and sports lovers will be able to enjoy an
authentic summer weekend. THE BEACH is gearing up to
host the second cycle of its hip initiative ‘Urban Beats at THE
BEACH by Vans’, combining music, art and extreme sports to offer an
adrenaline-pumping weekend for Dubai’s youth.
Urban Beats will run from Thursday, 31 March to Saturday, 2 April 2016,
at the North Lawn Amphitheatre of THE BEACH. Jaw-dropping acts of
dare-devilry by international skateboarders will regale crowds, as a live
DJ carries the energy throughout the weekend. While enjoying the rad
vibe, the public can also view urban artistry at its best as popular graffiti
artists leave souvenir one-off ‘tags’ at the event.
A competition arena will be set up on-site for amateur skateboarders,
freestyle footballers, BMX riders and local break-dancers from Dubai’s
up-and-coming talent circuit to test their skills at the city’s coolest
hangout.
the “very best of the best” Cirque performers in the world and rather than
create a production in a huge auditorium or arena, produce a unique
style show where the best seats in
the house are literally inches from
the action on stage. Cast members
are drawn from all around the world.
Part of the concept is to make the
audience experience the show rather
than just watch it and a number of
sophisticated special effects are employed to make this possible. Le Noir
has been a sell-out show in major cities such as Auckland, Christchurch,
Sydney and Singapore.
What is the date for the
opening of the circus
and how long?
The Abu Dhabi shows are scheduled
for the 17th, 18th and 19th of March
2016 and will be held at du Forum,
Yas Island while the Dubai shows are
scheduled between the 23rd of March

What are the most important performances?
The Colombian Wheel of Death is
cited as one of the most complex
circus stunts in the world; seeing two
acrobats perform high-risk feats atop
and inside a pair of spinning wheels
rotating high above the stage.

Classic Concepts brings
back the Dubai International Kite Festival (DIKF). Expect an
overcast of radiant kites along Kite
beach from 17th to 19th March 2016.
After a successful turn out last year,
READ gets in touch with Sonal Rawal,
the founder and director of Classic
Concepts to give us more insight on
the history of the Dubai International
Kite Festival and what to anticipate
this year.
How did DIKF start?
Classic Concepts is the pioneer in
bringing in the Kite flying Concept
into Dubai. The first kite festival ever
in the UAE, was conceptualized and
organized by Classic Events in 1994
on the private beach of “Chicago
Beach Hotel”, where the prestigious
“Jumeirah Beach Hotel” stands at present. More than 500 kites were flown
and it was a great success. We called
the festival “Fantasies in the Sky”.
Next one was in 1998 for the prestigious Dubai Shopping Festival.
We had 45 kite flyers participating
from 12 countries around the world.
It was a huge success. The festival
theme was “Flying for Peace”.
After that, we again started organizing since last year, making it an
annual event from there on. Dubai
International Kite Fest (DIKF) 2015.
Is there a theme for this
year?
We have no particular theme. We
have kites that can be enjoyed by
all age groups. The beauty of our
festival is that there is neither age
nor a nationality barrier. Everyone
can come and enjoy the array of

Are there any
requirements to be able
to participate?
We are not having a competition
this year so it will be only demonstration. We will be hosting the
“Sports Kite Championship” next
year. Therefore, it’s free to all event
at Jumeirah beach 3, behind Sun
Set Mall on 17th 18th & 19th March
2016. Anyone can come to the
beach, enjoy outdoors and fly kites
on designated areas. Since we will

like everyone to keep little distance

and give them space to display their
kites without any disturbance. It’s
strictly not allowed to fly with “Manja” threads (thread made from glass
powder), since they can damage the
huge kites which cost thousands
of dollars. Humble request to the
public to not use Manja thread at
the Kite festival.
What can we expect for
the DIFK 2016?
This year we are bringing in some
new set of professional Kite Flyers
for showcasing their wonderful
kites. We are also getting 3 world
champion Sports & Synchronized
Kite Flying teams.
“Andesky Team” from South
America, “Cream Team” from France
and “Shanghai Win Sky Team” from
China. They all have been world
champions some time or the other
and experts in their field. When
these Sports Kite teams fly these
kites, it looks like an air show with
the kites, instead of planes.
We have 70 Kite flyers & Pilots participating this year for DIKF 2016,

harjah Art Museum is set to showcase the works of two international and renowned
contemporary artists in a single exhibition. The exhibition entitled ‘Considering Dynamics and the Forms of Chaos’, will be displayed from March 9 to May31. This is the
first time that the Sharjah Art Museum will run solo exhibitions by two artists under
a single theme. The whole exhibition is curated by Brigitte Schenk (Galerie Brigitte Schenk,
Germany) and Amira Gad (Serpentine Galleries, UK). Considering Dynamics & the Forms
of Chaos will feature more than 25 works by British/Canadian artist Angela Bulloch, ranging
from large scale installations and sculptures to mural paintings and sound pieces, and more
than 60 paintings by German artist Maria Zerres. According to Manal Ataya, Director General
of SMD, “This is the first solo shows of Angela Bulloch and Maria Zerres in the UAE and we are
delighted to be presenting their work.” Maria Zerres is a German painter based in New York
and Germany who has had major solo presentations throughout the US and Europe, including the Venice Bienniale. Angela Bulloch is a British/Canadian artist based in Berlin who was
nominated for the Turner Prize in 1997.
Ms. Manal Ataya further shared that, “This is an opportunity for the UAE community to
engage with artworks recognised at an international level by bringing two of Europe’s most
established women artists under one roof.” She also shares her gratitude towards the international curators who helped with the exhibition, stating that, “The exhibition is a milestone
achievement for Sharjah Art Museum, which is always seeking to experiment and offer new
experiences to its visitors. We are hugely grateful to Amira Gad and Brigitte Schenk, the curators of the exhibition, for their work.”
Alongside the exhibition will be a series of workshops starting from 10 March and running
throughout the duration of the show. The workshops ‘Express Yourself’ forms part of the Museum’s accessibility programme. It includes a tour of the exhibition followed by a workshop
where participants are asked to express their feelings in response to Maria Zerres’ paintings.

Cleaning Up After Your
Furry Friends
By Maria Santos
O
ur pets are family and
they bring constant joy
into our lives, but no
matter how cute or fluffy
they look, they can leave a big mess
behind. Taking care after your pet
involves dedication and a lot of
knowledge, so if you’re a first time
pet-parent or one who just needs
a little bit of help with their furry
friends, here are some tips to help
you out.
Pet Deterrent
READ. MARCH 13 - MARCH 19, 2016
We’ve all had those moments, where
you’ve lost a charger cord –or twomaybe even some of your accessories, when your furry friend decided
to use it as a chew toy, I understand
your frustration! However, there
are ways to help prevent your pets
from messing with things that aren’t
theirs to chew.
Dogs will avoid anything rubbed
with Bitter Apple Spray, which you
can buy at the pet store. As for cats,
they instinctively avoid citrus, so
DIY Puzzle
Dog Toy
if you use a citrus-scented cleaner
they’ll likely stay off that surface.
If you’re hoping to keep your kitty
off counters and other surfaces, try
laying down tin foil, or lining the
counter or table with tape, sticky
side up. Both methods are safe, and
you can use them to teach cats to
stay off.
Pet Hair Removal
Unless you’ve got yourself a sphynx
cat or a dog that –miraculouslydoesn’t shed, at least that much,
then you’re lucky! Having a two
dogs and a cat, I’ve experienced
the trouble of trying to get rid of
pet hair, and believe me when I say
that vacuums and lint rollers is not
enough.
If you’re struggling to get hair off
the furniture, put on some rubber
gloves, get them slightly damp and
run your hands along the hairy
furniture. The damp rubber picks
up hair like a charm.
If you’re renting with pets in a
Materials
into strips that are about one inch
wide, and a little longer than the
diameter of your ball. Grab some
kibble, or some small bite sized
treats, and gather all your fleece
pieces and your Hol-ee Roller (or
some similar toy) together. You’ll
want to roll one treat or kibble
piece into each piece of fleece, and
then stuff it in through the holes so
it rests on the inside of the ball toy.
Instructions
Note: This is not a toy you should
make for a dog who is known to
swallow pieces of fabric or stuff-
Hol-ee Roller ball (or a similar
hollow ball toy)
Approximately 1/3 of a yard of
fleece or another fabric piece
Scissors
Small treats or kibble
Cut your fleece (or other fabric)
Ingredients
2/3 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 large eggs
3 cups whole wheat flour, or
more, as needed
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
F. Line a baking sheet with
parchment paper or a silicone
baking mat; set aside.
carpeted apartment, use a squeegee, like the kind you use to clean
your shower, to pick up fur from the
carpet.
Litter Box
If you own a cat then you know that
most of them don’t know the words
‘litter box etiquette,’ most often
than not, it leaves an unsightly mess
that we don’t want guests to see.
There are simple ways to overcome
this, you can leave the litter box
under a side table or a cabinet
you don’t use, and attach curtains
around the edges to hide it. If your
kitty is loves kicking the litter to cover up her business, you may want to
try a covered litter box that’s facing a
wall. The cover will keep most of the
litter from flying everywhere.
ing. Always supervise your dog
when they’re playing with any
toy containing pieces that can be
swallowed, or toys not meant for
heavy chewing.
2. In the bowl of an electric
mixer fitted with the paddle
attachment, beat pumpkin
puree, peanut butter and eggs
on medium-high until well
combined, about 1-2 minutes.
Gradually add 2 1/2 cups flour
at low speed, beating just
until incorporated. Add an
additional 1/4 cup flour at a
time just until the dough is no
longer sticky.
3. Working on a lightly floured
surface, knead the dough 3-4
times until it comes together.
Using a rolling pin, roll the
dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
Using cookie cutters, cut out
desired shapes and place onto
the prepared baking sheet.
4. Place into oven and bake
until the edges are golden
brown, about 20-25 minutes.**
5. Let cool completely.
Notes
**Baking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of the treats. Serving size
will also vary depending on
the desired shapes and cookie
cutters used.

Prepping For the Races
By Neha
O
ne of the most eagerly awaited social
events in Dubai is
fast approaching.
The world’s richest horse race
is returning to bring together
equestrians and fashionistas
for a day of ultimate fun and
excitement.
With the Dubai World Cup
around the corner, the Race Day
puzzle floating on everyone’s
mind is how to look remarkable
on this glam day. There are so
many ways to rock it, and you
can invest in an outfit which
will be synonymous with the
grandeur of this race.
While spring is in, choosing
floral prints will be a favourable
decision, add some feminine,
classic and svelte silhouettes. A
mod structured midi skirt with
fitted blouse has always been
a wise idea or a versatile piece.
Slay the race day with an A-line
and pencil shape dresses, and
add a fitted blazer or a light coat
which will help personalise your
whole look. If you are looking for
a stylish yet comfortable outfit,
nothing will beat a classy jumpsuit or a maxi-dress. Wearing a
headpiece of some kind, like a
hat or fascinator is a prerequisite.
While choosing a headpiece,
ensure it matches with the colour
and tones of your outfit. Finish
your outfit with a fantastic pair of
shoes and exquisite jewellery.
Points to remember:
• Avoid wearing outfits too
light or short
• Avoid wearing shades with a
hat or fascinator
• Make sure you go easy on the
make-up

Moisturise the Right Way!
A
pplying moisturiser
before anything else is a
must; not only does this
help hydrate your skin,
but it also helps rejuvenate your
face, with a little massage. Knowing
how to properly apply your moisturiser will be beneficial in ensuring
that your skin absorbs it evenly and
fully. Here are four simple steps you
need to follow:
1. Release an appropriate amount
and distribute them to your cheeks,
chin and forehead. Use your fingers
to gently massage the cheeks to
enhance penetration. Repeat three
times.
2. Use the middle and ring finger of
your hands to massage up from the
nasolabial folds (your laugh lines) to
the ridge of your nose.
3. Use all of your fingers alternatively to massage diagonally to enhance
penetration. Repeat three times.
4. Use all of your fingers to massage
up the chin line to enhance penetration and finish up with the firming
massage. Repeat three times.
The best time to apply your moisturiser is right after taking a shower,
as this will help trap the moisture
you gathered from your shower. A
moisturiser with an SPF is recom-
mended for daytime use and should
be applied first and let dry before
putting your makeup on. If your skin
is especially dry, applying moisturiser at night will help you in that, to
help repair the skin from the day’s
traumas.

Tropical Cairns
GREEN ISLAND
By Delaine Dcosta
C
airns, is a tropical paradise situated in Northern
Queensland. It’s amazing
how each city in Australia
look so different. We spent 3 days
in Cairns, and our last day was
exciting, adventurous and tiresome.
I was not prepared for what we
were going to do that day. According to our plan, we were supposed
to visit Green Island in the Great
Barrier Reef in the morning and
horse riding in the evening. So there
we were at the port, on an early
morning, waiting to catch our boat
to Green Island. I am not a fan of
sea journeys as I suffer from motion
sickness, however, this had to be
done. I couldn’t leave Cairns without
exploring the Great Barrier Reef.
We were supposedly going to do
some shallow water snorkelling,
a submarine ride and explore the
island. Half way through, Mr. D
approached one of the staff on the
boat and asked them whether we
could accommodate Seawalking
in our agenda. Seawalking, as the
name states is basically walking on
the sea bed. They told us that if we
could drop the other stuff - snorkelling, submarine, etc. we could do it.
So that’s what we did!
Once we reached Green Island,
we were immediately taken to the
Seawalkers kiosk. There we had to
change into a diver’s suit and was
given a briefing. The briefing scared
me more than actually doing it.

Once we were done, we were taken
on a boat in the middle of the sea
and dropped off onto a barge like
thing. A ladder was dropped into the
sea from the floating barge, and we
took one step at a time on the ladder
until we reached the seabed! It was
a marvellous experience to get up
close with Australia’s marine life.
Seawalking - Great Barrier Reef
Seawalking took up most of our
time. By the time we went back to
land, we were left with no time to
explore the island and had to return
back to the port. To do everything
at leisure, it’s a good idea to spend a
full day there. We booked our tickets
here. Once we reached the mainland, we grabbed a quick lunch and
View from the boat
headed back to the hotel. Next up,
was horse riding, I simply love horse
riding. The last time I rode a horse was
in Portugal. I knew that Cairns would
be a completely different experience.
We booked our horse riding tour from
the hotel itself. It was the Mount N
Ride Rainforest Horseback Tour which
included pick up and drop off to our
hotel
The horse riding location was about
30 minutes away from our hotel.
Once we reached there, we were
given a short briefing and allotted a
horse each. I was already in love with
the place. We were surrounded by
mountains and plenty of greenery. We
would be passing through the river
and rainforest.
Mount N Ride
We took the most scenic trails and the
trainers were there with us the whole
way. We were able to book a cameraman and videographer there itself.
They accompanied us too. After a 2
hour ride, we were offered tea, cake
and fruits. It was such a beautiful
experience.

‘Creating the Future’ which coincided
with Dubai’s bid to host the Expo in
2020 which in turn carried the tagline
‘Connecting Minds, Creating the
Future’. This season’s theme is ‘Happiness’ and it is based on the focus

Arun Bhat
How did you come about
choosing the theme for
this year?
We at HIPA wouldask our community to recommend categories to us
and then also ask for recommendations from our international judging
panel. When a strong list of potential
categories is compiled, they are then
put forward to our Board of Trustees
How is this season
different from last year’s?
The categories this season differ from
last season’s and therefore the type of
photographs we have received have
differed greatly in terms of meaning.
What I can say though, is that we
have seen a steady improvement in

terms of quality of submissions over
the last few years. This was no different this season where the judge’s had
a very hard time picking the winning
photographs due to the huge number
of high-calibre submissions.

nfiniti continues to build on its reputation in the global sports coupe
segment as the new Q60 makes its European premiere at the Geneva
International Motor Show. Here in the Middle East, the vehicle will be
available in the first quarter of 2017. The Q60 features a striking interpretation of Infiniti’s ‘Powerful Elegance’ design language, with taut, muscular lines and distinctive proportions. At the heart of the car is an all-new
lightweight and sophisticated ‘VR30’ 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine, which
plays a key role in the Q60’s engaging yet refined drive experience. The new
engine, from the new and exclusive ‘VR’ powertrain family, continues the brand’s longstanding heritage of advanced six-cylinder powertrains. This new V6
is available in two states of tune – either 300 hp or high performance 400 hp all of which have been engineered to offer superior levels of power and torque,
coupled with high standards of efficiency resulting in one of the best power-to-efficiency ratings in the sports coupe class.

like its Obstacle Sensing System, ActiveTrack and TapFly functionality. The
Phantom 4’s Obstacle Sensing System features two forward-facing optical sensors that scan for obstacles and automatically direct the aircraft around the
impediment when possible, reducing risk of collision, while ensuring flight direction remains constant. If the system determines the craft cannot go around
the obstacle, it will slow to a stop and hover until the user redirects it. Obstacle avoidance also engages if the user triggers the drone’s “Return to Home”
function to reduce the risk of collision when automatically flying back to its take off point.

Kings of Egypt Overtakes Deadpool at the UAE Box Office
While Deadpool ruled the international box office for a number of weeks, it couldn’t hold up its running streak in
the UAE as it buckled against Alex Proyas’ Kings of Egypt last week. The CGI-fueled fantasy film made a cool AED
3.9 million at the box office, edging out Deadpool to take the number one spot. Marvel’s superhero flick is still doing
well though, with its whopping two-week collection of AED 12 million proving that it’s a massive hit in the country.
The Revenant made a surprising come back from no. 12 to no. 9 position (probably due to Leo DiCpario winning the
Oscar for the Best Actor for the movie) as it collected AED 170, 526 last week. Bollywood bio-pic Neerja drops to no.
3 (from no. 2) as it collected AED 925, 793 last week, while the Ben Stiller starrer Zoolander 2 entered the box office
at no. 4 with a total collection of just AED 972, 286.

Actress and singer Zendaya has
been cast in the upcoming SpiderMan reboot. The Disney Channel
star, known for her roles in Shake
It Up! and K.C. Undercover, will
play a character named Michelle,
according to Deadline. Although no
other details are known, it’s possible
she could be portraying character
Michele Gonzales, who first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man
#592 and later became Peter Parker’s
roommate and possible love interest. Zendaya joins Tom Holland,
who will play Peter Parker/SpiderMan, and director Jon Watts, who
previously helmed the 2015 film Cop
Car. While the title of the upcoming reboot is unknown and plot
points are scarce, we do know that
Holland is also expected to appear
in Captain America: Civil War. The
Spider-Man reboot is slated to hit
theaters on July 7, 2017.
Tom Hiddleston
Interested In Playing
James Bond
The actor behind Loki says he’s
interested in playing another iconic
character: Bond. James Bond. Tom
Hiddleston told The Sunday Times,
that he’s a “huge fan” of the Bond
films and indicated that he’d be up
for the physical demands of the
job. “I simply love the theme tune, the tropes and the mythology. I love the
whole thing,” he said. “If it ever came knocking, it would be an extraordinary
opportunity. And I’m very aware of the physicality of the job. I would not
take it lightly.” Speculation has been heating up as to who would play the
next Bond if Daniel Craig ultimately decides not to reprise the role. He had
quipped that he’d rather slash his wrists than come back last year, but then
clarified that he simply needs a break before thinking about coming back.
His friend Mark Strong also indicated that he may be ready to hang up the
tuxedo. Among the names often passed around as a possible Bond replacement is Hiddleston’s Thor co-star Idris Elba, who recently joined The Dark
Tower, Sony’s screen adaptation of the Stephen King saga.

Is Sylvester Stallone in Guardians Of The
Galaxy Vol. 2?
Sylvester Stallone was reportedly spotted heading to the set of
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, holding what appeared to be a script.
Stallone—who was recently nominated for an Oscar for his role in
Creed—left the cast’s Atlanta hotel, and entered a car “usually assigned to Chris Pratt,” New York Daily News reported. Marvel Studios
has yet to comment on Stallone’s involvement. As pointed out by New
York Daily News, the actor playing Peter Quill’s father has not been
named, though it has been rumored Kurt Russell will play Quill’s dad.
It’s possible Stallone nabbed that role, however, according to the site’s
source, it’s more likely Stallone just has a cameo. Director James Gunn
has kept much of the film under wraps, though he has posted a few
behind-the-scenes photos from the set.

Exercises for Your Eyes
24
Quick Visual Guide:
I
f you are spending too much
time in front of computers,
your eyes are the ones that get
strained to the maximum. Taking breaks at regular intervals will
help to ease this strain and help protect your vision. A good rule to follow is the 20-20-20 rule to keep your
vision intact for the future. Every
20 minutes, take your eyes off your
computer and look at something 20
feet away for at least 20 seconds. You
can as well follow these exercises for
a full relaxation for your eyes.
Gazing Into the Darkness
Place your elbows on the table. Then
place the palms of your hands over
your eyes with the fingers of one
hand crossing over the fingers on
the other hand. Close your eyes and
gaze into the darkness. Relax and
hold this position for 1-3 minutes.
Look straight ahead. Look down
and to the left. Then move your
eyes diagonally and look up and to
the right. Focus on what you see.
Repeat this exercise 5 times, then
look straight ahead and do the same
exercise looking down and to the
right and then looking up and to the
left. Repeat this cycle 3 times.

Moving Your Eyes
Diagonally
Sit up straight and look straight
ahead. Then look up and focus on
what you see. Look down. Don’t be
afraid to wrinkle your forehead or
frown with your eyebrows. It’s good
for the eyes. Look up and down 5
times. Repeat this cycle 3 times.
Focus on a nearby object, e.g. a pencil.
It should be 20-30 cm away from your
eyes. Then look at something distant.
Focus on that distant object and try
to see it in detail. Then look on the
nearby object again. Change this focus 5 times. Repeat this cycle 3 times.
Concentration One
Sit up straight. Look straight ahead.
Gaze at the point between your
eyebrows. Focus on what you see
and gaze for a few seconds. Look
straight ahead. Then gaze at the
point between your eyebrows again.
Change this focus 5 times. Repeat
this cycle 3 times.
Concentration Two
Sit up straight. Look straight ahead.
Gaze at the tip of your nose for a few
seconds. Then look straight ahead
again. Change this focus 5 times.
Repeat this cycle 3 times.

Food to
Help Fight
Phlegm
Having constant phlegm
build-up in the nose and
throat can be a nuisance and
can even cause bad breath.
While it is a relatively minor
problem, it does affect the
everyday lives of sufferers, who are unable to go
anywhere without a pocketful of tissues. There are some
simple tricks to help reduce
this problem: from stopping
smoking, and exercising more,
to simply including some of
the following food in your diet.
Pumpkin is some sort
of wonder food, bursting
with beneficial amounts of
Vitamins A, C and E, with
calcium, copper, potassium
and phosphorus. Pumpkin
seeds are full of omega-3
which is known to have antiinflammatory properties while
the flesh contains antioxidant
properties.
Honey - This amazing
gooey stuff is antibacterial,
anti-inflammatory, and antifungal, it contains antioxidants and flavonoids. Honey
is also soothing which makes
it an ideal treatment. One tip
is to add a teaspoon of ground
or powdered ginger into a
small amount of honey to
obtain dual benefits.
Pineapple is an excellent
all-round health enhancer,
packed full of Vitamin A and
C, and containing calcium,
phosphorus and potassium.
Pineapple contains bromelain
which works mainly to regulate the digestive system but
also has a beneficial effect on
mucus and phlegm production too.
Chamomile Tea has
been proven to reduce the
effects of nasal congestion.
Chamomile contains flavonoids and apigenin which can
actually help to clear the inflammation that has led to the
increase of mucus production.

You Will Overcome the
Fear of the Unknown
It’s so easy to get tangled up in your
daily routine that you forget that
there’s a world full of possibilities
out there. If you’ve been feeling
stressed and miserable at your job
for quite some time, then maybe it’s
about time you took control of the
situation. Recognizing that your job
has run its course can be extremely
stressful and overwhelming. In order
to make a smooth career change, you
need to create a budget, timeline and
an exist plan. This might sound like
a risky and scary step to take, but the
key to overcoming the fear of quitting
is to plan every aspect of your next
move.
It Helps You Identify
Your Personal Values
Quitting your job helps you identify
your personal values and allows you
Lessons You Learn
From Quitting Your Job
to draw boundaries on what you
consider acceptable behavior and
what you don’t. For example, if you
don’t value competition, but came
across a potential company with a
highly competitive environment, you
might consider that environment
toxic. In such situations, understanding your values can really help.
Your personal values are a central
part of who you are and who you
want to be. Leaving your job can help
you become more aware and allows
you to use your values as a guide to
make the best career choice.
You Will Be Able to
Pinpoint Your Weaknesses
Understanding yourself does not
only revolve around your strengths
and what you are good at. You also
need to acknowledge your areas of
weakness. Leaving your job will give
you the space to think about your
skills and identify what needs to be
improved. You will be able to look for
ways to turn those weaknesses into
strengths. Knowing your weakness
before the interview is essential to
finding the best job for you.
You Will Know Identify It Allows You to Bridge
Your Edge
the Gaps in your CV
The skill-set you possess is the combination of the abilities that allow
you to perform a particular job. It is
also what helps you stand out when
applying to jobs. Quitting allows you
to identify your talents and competitive edge when approaching the job
market. The responsibilities that you
handled in your past job can still be
of value to your new career. You need
to match what you can do to the duties and responsibilities of the positions you are applying for. Nowadays,
you have to reinvent yourself to stay
competitive. You need to turn your
current skills into valuable assets.
You always have to keep in mind that
there is always room for improvement, especially when you’re starting
fresh upon quitting. Examine the
gaps in your CV and think about
what you can do to step up your
game. For example if you believe that
you can use some improvement in
a certain computer program, join
a course. Showing the interviewee
that you went the extra mile to make
yourself more employable is a quality
that will not only impress, but will
also emphasizes your willingness to
learn.

A
s easy as it may sound to
just pack your stuff and
walk out of the office,
quitting your job is a
major decision that requires a lot of
contemplating. But once you make
up your mind about leaving your job,
you need to look closely at the lessons and learning experiences that
you gained so you can stir your career in the right direction. Akhtaboot
is here to highlight the top learning
experiences that you can gain upon
leaving your job.

RTA launches a new
public bus route
T
he Public Transport Agency,
Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), has opened
a new public bus route
and will further improve other bus
routes in the emirate in a bid to
meet the growing demand for the
bus service by mass transit riders in
Dubai.
“The new metro feeder Route (F01)
sets off from Union metro station
and passes through Al Baraha and
Al Muteena districts,” said Adel Mohammed Shakri, Director of Planning and Business Development,
RTA Public Transport Agency.
READ. MARCH 13 - MARCH 19, 2016
“The service on other routes will
also be improved involving increasing the headway (service frequency)
of Routes 365, 366 and E303; and
reducing the headway of other
routes, namely: Routes 64A, 24, 27
and 300. The implementation of this
step is a quick response to the needs
of public transport riders and in
line with the upswing witnessed by
Dubai in various fields. The RTA has
opted to take these two measures to
improve the daily performance on
these routes and raise the satisfaction of bus riders by offering them
an enjoyable transit experience
during their daily travel. The steps
have been taken after elaborate field
surveys following suggestions and
feedback of public transport users in
Dubai,” said Shakri.
“The RTA is keen on expanding
the reach of the public transport
network to match the urban and
demographic growth in the emirate.
It considers public bus routes one
of the strategic initiatives and key
pillars of increasing the percentage
of trips made through the public
transport network. The overall
objective of the RTA is to entice
more community members to use
public transport means in their daily
mobility; which will have a positive
impact on both the traffic movement and the environment.
“Obviously, the more public transport riders we have, the less traffic
congestions will be experienced by
our city, let alone the lower number
of accidents, higher traffic safety
level and minimal environmental
pollution generated by the massive
numbers of private cars,” added
Shakri.
The new route begins at Union metro station and passes Al Baraha and Al Muteena

Bennett to learn lesson
G
McIlroy
frustrated
READ. MARCH 13 - MARCH 19, 2016
regor Townsend is confident that Mark Bennett won’t attempt another one-handed touchdown after
Glasgow Warriors missed a winning bonus point. Scotland centre Bennett looked likely to score a try in
last week’s 27-20 victory over Cardiff Blues, but he let the ball slip from his grasp. “He put his hand up at
half-time,” his head coach said. “It was unlucky.” It was great seeing him go over, a nice move, but obviously he’ll put the ball down with two hands from now on.”
Sharapova
fails drug test
T
he world of tennis has witnessed a shocking turn of events after Maria Sharapova announced that she
failed a drugs test at the Australian Open. The 28-year-old Russian player revealed in Los Angeles last week
that she had tested positive for the drug ‘meldonium’, which was only added to the banned list this year.
The Tennis Federation has announced that the five-time Grand Slam champion is provisionally suspended.
“For 10 years, this medicine was not on WADA’s banned list and I had been legally taking the medicine for the past
10 years,” Sharapova stated. “But on January 1 the rules changed and meldonium became a prohibited substance,
which I had not known.”
R
ory McIlroy has claimed
that he was frustrated
after missing another
winning opportunity
following a disappointing final
round at the WGC-Cadillac
Championship. The 26-yearold held a three-shot lead over
Dustin Johnson and Adam Scott
heading in to the final round,
however only managed to finish
in a tie for third as Scott claimed
a second successive PGA Tour
title. “I didn’t make enough birdies,” McIlroy said. “I felt like my
game was okay for the most part,
but I didn’t take advantage of
the holes I should have. A lot of
things didn’t go right for me, but
I need to just pick myself back up
and get into contention again in
Orlando in a couple weeks and
let’s see if I can get the win there.”
Wenger bored
of criticism
A
rsenal boss Arsene Wenger has
grown bored of people questioning his ability to continue
the job as he continues to defend his position. Supporters and pundits
have often been calling for the 66-year-old
to end his long reign with the Gunners.
Wenger has also recently faced a fresh
wave of criticism after the team’s Barclays
Premier League title hopes were derailed
by some poor results. “Look, I have worked
here for 19, 20 years and I’m always sitting
here having to justify that I’m good enough
to do the job,” said Wenger. “I have no
problem to cope with everything but I find
that a bit boring in the end. I always have
to convince you that I am good enough. I
worked for 35 years at the top level.”
No more
than one
T
his summer, just one team
will be promoted from
Division Two of the County
Championship, with the
aim to reduce the number of top-tier
teams in 2017. Next year, a top division of eight teams will be introduced
down from nine, with 10 counties
in the second. 14 games will now be
played by each country instead of 16,
while the Royal London One-Day Cup
moves to early season. “The changes
for 2017 will be good for fans, players
and our international teams.” said
ECB chairman Colin Graves. One-Day
Cup group games in April and May
before the final in July does away with
the end-of-season Lord’s showpiece,
and allows the T20 Blast to take centre
stage in the second half of the season.
Vettel tops final day
F
errari’s Sebastian Vettel managed to set the fastest time on the final day of Formula 1 pre-season testing. The fourtime champion made sure that Ferrari were top on five of the eight days in Spain. World champions Mercedes are currently the favourites before the kick off of the season in Australia on 18-20 March. But Vettel said: “The new car gives
us the chance to close the gap. How much? We need to be a bit more patient.” Nico Rosberg is confident that there will
be little between Mercedes and Ferrari in Australia. “We know that Ferrari is very close,” he said. “They’ve been very quick.”

Kick off your week with
a surge of adventurous
energy! You’ll be a veritable pioneer,
boldly forging new trails and meeting new people everywhere you go.
Expect that action to subside later
on as obstacles and obligations crop
up to block your path.
Slow down on Monday and Tuesday! You’ll
find that you’re in an unusual rush
-- which is weird for you -- but just
take a deep breath and resist any
impulsive urges. On Wednesday and
Thursday, you’ll come back into
your own.
Take the initiative as
the week begins. You’re a
dynamo on Monday and Tuesday,
able to communicate quickly and
come up with new plans on the fly
(with a little help from your friends,
of course). You’ll need to drop your
speed back down to a relaxing coast.

Don’t overreact as the
week begins. Monday
and Tuesday could
both present emotional challenges,
thanks to your temporarily extrasensitive intellect. If you can stay
calm, cool and collected, though,
you’ll pull through fine.
Ready to learn something new? This week
should provide more than a few
opportunities to discover interesting people and downright amazing
ideas -- and you’ll even have some
fun in the process. Your focus will
shift to your reputation and career.
You’ll be filled with an
unusually assertive sense of
purpose. Use this spirit and ambition to get things done on Monday
and Tuesday, even if others are reluctant to help. On Wednesday and
Thursday, take any opportunity to
travel -- even if it’s just across town.
(JUL 24 - AUG 23)
(AUG 24 - SEP 23)
SAGITTARIUS
You’ll be called on to
make a compromise in
a one-on-one partnership -- but
fortunately striking a balance is your
personal specialty. You’ll continue
your focus on partnerships and
alliances, but others will ask you to
intervene in their own affairs.
Watch out for trouble as
the week begins! You’re
filled with initiative and energy on
Monday and Tuesday -- and it’s a
great time to start things -- but that
assertiveness could bring you into
conflict if you’re not careful. Put
more of a premium on flexibility.
You can accomplish
almost anything. Monday
and Tuesday both find you filled
with playful enthusiasm and an
almost kid-like creativity, so put all
that energy to good use.Focus on
the big picture. You’ll have a good
handle on what needs to be done.
CAPRICORN
AQUARIUS
PISCES
You may have to put
things off. Events are at
odds with your desires and plans,
but be patient -- you just need
to show some perseverance. On
Wednesday and Thursday, take at
least some time off to relax and goof
off, especially with friends and kids.
The week begins on an
altruistic note for you.
You’ll find plenty of opportunities to lend a helping hand -- and
what goes around will surely come
around. On Wednesday and Thursday, boredom could get the best of
you if you’re not careful.
Everything is a blur
as the week begins.
Your Monday and Tuesday
could find you hard-pressed to sort
out truths from half-truths (not to
mention outright lies!), and nothing
ends up being quite what it seems.
Proceed with caution.
