  • Integrated Approach for the Improvement of Human Comfort in the Public Realm: the Case of the Corniche, the Linear Urban Link of Doha
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Qatar University Institutional Repository American Journal of Sociological Research 2015, 5(4): 89-100 DOI: 10.5923/j.sociology.20150504.01 Integrated Approach for the Improvement of Human Comfort in the Public Realm: The Case of the Corniche, the Linear Urban Link of Doha Mooza AlMohannadi, Samar Zaina, Sara Zaina, Raffaello Furlan* College of Engineering Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Qatar University, Doha, Qatar Abstract The Corniche is a public realm located in Doha. Its waterfront palm-fringed boulevard and twin carriageway extends in a horseshoe shape and runs 7 km along the Doha Bay and the city's sea-front. Doha Corniche is indisputably the most attractive part of Doha, studded with exciting green surroundings and remarkable modern architecture. The Corniche was formed during the late 1970s and early 1980s, reshaping Doha’s coastline. The public space used to be an empty walkway, however development has expanded in the 21st century with many skyscrapers being built towards the north of the Corniche. Presently, the Doha Corniche is an appealing designation of the economic boom. Today a rapid development of the built environment of Doha including public urban open spaces is witnessed. Open spaces are functional under the circumstance that they are used by the people; however, the open spaces in Doha are vacant due to the unappealing and uncomfortable physical and non-physical factors, namely during summer. This paper proposes an integrated approach for improvement of human comfort conditions in a public outdoor space all year round with emphasis on the summer season.

The interior ministry identified the attacker as Ibrahim Suleiman, born in 1988. It said he was driving a cleaning truck at the time of the attack, and suffered multiple fractures and injuries. The min- istry added the five US soldiers were not injured. Security sources said that the suspect was taken to hospital under tight security. Detectives found in his possession a hand-written letter pledging allegiance to IS and adopting its ideology. Explosives - including a suicide belt - were found in the truck, owned by a local contracting company. Security bodies are interro- gating Ibrahim Suleiman Suleiman and conducting investi- gations to uncover the circumstances of the attack, in addition to finding the suspect’s accomplices and bring them to justice, the ministry said, reiterating commit- ment to preserving the safety and security of Kuwait and Kuwaitis.

  • “ ” Nick Matthew
    FEATURE IN SEARCH OF GOLD Rod Gilmour speaks to triple world champion Nick Matthew about the remaining targets in his glittering career Fresh challenges are said to bring the best out of top players. And so it should be for Nick Matthew, version 2.0, who believes he has found his eureka moment as the great Briton aims to compete at the 2018 Commonwealth Games and bow out of the game with the Gold Coast sunshine on his back and gold around his neck. That’s the belief of a player who will be a few months shy of his 38th birthday when he bids to bag an incredible hat-trick of Commonwealth men’s singles titles. If he does get that far – and he admits he is only assessing his career every quarter following recent injuries – then you can be sure that he will still look and play like someone several years younger. “ The emphasis now is on skills, tactical and mental elements” Nick Matthew MATTHEW’S AIMS 2017 Compete in the World Championship in Manchester 2018 Compete in the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast 14 SQUASHPLAYER.CO.UK It would be a fitting end, of course, to a people I play, I could play to my strengths. “The court was hot and bouncy, it was 90 brilliant career.
