Dubai developments - Civilisation in the making
Dubai Towers represent the centrepiece of 'The Lagoons' development. The towers and the master planned development were designed by TVS. The four towers, ranging from 54 to 97 floors, are clustered to form a choreographed sculpture, representing the movement of candlelight.
Zaha Hadid has designed the Performing Arts Centre, which will present the finest in music, theatre and dance, on onSaadiyatIsland, which Abu Dhabi's ruler, Sheikh KhalifaBin ZayedAl Nahyan, has decided to make one of the world's top cultural destinations and a "beacon for cultural experience and exchange."
Infinity Tower, designed by Skidmore Owings and Merrill (SOM), will stand 80 stories high at 330 meters and will be the world’s tallest tower to feature a 90 degree twist. Infinity Tower will house luxury residential apartments, pools, a state of the art gymnasium, a nursery, conference room facilities, tennis courts and a luxury spa. The innovative design affords apartments on all sides staggering views. Open-space design has been implemented to ensure a minimum of pillars and floor to ceiling windows providing a sense of space and light. A reinforced concrete column will rotate with the twisting shape to create a helix. In addition each floor will accommodate a 1.2 degree twist to achieve the full unique 90 degree spiral.
Arabian Blade. A mixed use tower by architect, Claudio Catalano who says "The structure is devised as a vertical summation of several different buildings like a plant"furbished and intermingled with public and landscaped spaces. The facility will include a hotel, residential housing, commercial and "play spaces".
Hydropolisis the world’s first underwater luxury resort. It will sit 66 feet below the surface of the Persian Gulf and feature 220 guest suites. The Hydropolis, scheduled for completion this year, has faced major delays due to cost issues and concerns over the project's impact on marine life.

Paul's Hardships
3We put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited.
4Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;
5in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger;
6in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
7in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
8through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors;
9known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed;
10sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
11We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you.
12We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us.
13As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also.
Lord Lord, i'm sorry for what i've done.
