Fun Factoid about living in the Middle East

I was watching a movie on TV the other day on Dubai One (a channel from Dubai) when, right in the middle of a scene, a message came up on the screen saying "It is now time for Maghrib (sp?) prayer."  The prayer call started to resound from the TV as the corresponding words in Arabic flashed across the screen in a beautiful slideshow.  My movie was interrupted for 15+ minutes!  I just gave up on it and changed the channel.
