It's because Mohamed didn't believe in idol worship.

That's why you will not see pictures of Sheikh Mohamed or Sheikh Zayed all over Dubai or Abu Dhabi, as to worship or idolise something or someone is haram.

Some do, some don't. Lights at busy intersections such as the one you mention usually run on a timed circuit. Other I have noticed use an electrostatic magnet under the roads, such as the ones on the intersection of beach and Al Soufah roads. Like the rest of Dubai, I don't think there's any rhyme o...

with a TV out on a laptop, can this output be used on any lcd/plasma TV?


Probably. I use a projector and use the VGA on it.

PC on TV's are never great, but you can output to TV on most computers these days. It's not bad for watching TV, just don't expect the clarity of a computer monitor.

It can be but it would look fuzzy as crap as not enough pixels.

Best use a low resolution, max 800 x 600.

This is a case that divided a nation. The evidence that 'came to light' is that Dingoes do eat babies. A bit of a no brainer. Based on that alone, they were freed.

Interestingly enough, the husband who was also jailed as an accessory, has since stated that he thinks she 'could' have done it.
