Ciel Tower Gevora Hotel in Dubai with 356-meter (1,168 feet)  became the tallest hotel in the world, complete with certification as a Guinness World Record. But the Gevora's reign will be short-lived. The 75-story tower is to be eclipsed by a slender glass skyscraper under construction just a short drive away in Dubai's Marina district. The Ciel Tower will reach 360.4 meters upon completion, developer The First Group has confirmed, featuring 1,042 rooms and suites spread across 82 floors. The design from architects NORR, creators of the Atlantis, the Palm hotel, seeks to maximize the value of such altitude. A glass observation deck will offer 360-degree views of the city.

Guests will experience "panoramic views of the coastline and iconic landmarks including the Palm Jumeirah (man-made island)," a spokesperson for The First Group said. The design won three prizes at the Int...

From then, the struggle for survival began. And though for 15 years and eight months, he was permanently going in and out of hospital, he was determined to fight the illness to a standstill. However, on February 4 2017, he finally succumbed to the cold hands of death after sadly telling his mother he could no longer bear the pain.  That is the story of Jephthah Aireankhue Setonji Ivan Ohiomokhare, one of the many Nigerian children, who have had to contend with the pains associated with sickle-cell anaemia.

He could engage his mates in arms wrestling, walk on his arms, lift weight and would not tolerate being exempted from end...
