Oman Calls on Arabs to Ease Israel's 'Fears for Its Future' SHAABAN 2, 1440 AH SUNDAY, APRIL 7, 2019 28 Pages Max 28º Min 21º 150 Fils Established 1961 ISSUE NO: 17800 The First Daily in the Arabian Gulf www.kuwaittimes.net Patchy response to complaints Trump claims the US is Turkish Airlines aims to spread AFC chief’s new term triggers 3 to patch up potholed streets 6 ‘full’ at Mexico border 11 wings at Istanbul’s new airport 27 complaints; India earn top seat Oman calls on Arabs to ease Israel’s ‘fears for its future’ Netanyahu won’t move ‘even one’ settler for US peace plan SUWEIMEH, Jordan: A top Omani government offi- cial yesterday said Arabs must take initiatives to make Israel overcome “fears for its future” in the region, drawing criticism from Jordan. The remarks by Yusuf bin Alawi bin Abdullah, the minister responsible for foreign Yusuf bin Alawi affairs in Oman, came on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum hosted by Jordan on the shores of the Dead Sea. “The West has offered Israel political, econom- ic and military support and it now holds all the means of power... but despite that it fears for its future as a non- Arab country surrounded by 400 million Arabs,” he said. “I believe that we Arabs must be able to look into this issue and try to ease those fears that Israel has through initiatives and real deals between us and Israel,” he told a panel discussing geopolitics. The panel’s moderator, jour- nalist Hadley Gamble, interrupted him to ask if the best solution to the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict is “recognizing Israel and its right to exist”. The minister said no. “Not recognizing, but we want them themselves to feel that there are no threats to their future.” Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi, whose country is the only Arab nation along with Egypt to have KUWAIT: Lightning strikes the Liberation Tower in Kuwait City during a thunderstorm on Friday. — Photo by Yasser Al-Zayyat a peace treaty with Israel, dismissed the remarks saying Continued on Page 24 ministry is also based, onlookers said. “They News in brief Sudan protesters were also calling on Bashir to step down,” a witness said.

  • Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones
    HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

  • 2019-21 in a Nutshell
    IN A NUTSHELL RECENT EVENTS WORTH DISCUSSING 21/2019 BILLIONAIRE PAYS DEBT OF 400 STUDENTS Access to free education ends in many countries at the level of high school. If you want to go to university, you need to pay and pay a lot. In the USA it is not uncommon for college graduates to start their adult life with a debt of $200,000. When you have to give it back your flexibility of what you can do in your life are considerably limited. In this light imagine how much Robert F Smith, a billionaire, a technology investor and one of most black philanthropists in the USA shocked a group of nearly 400 students at Morehouse College, Atlanta (historically all-male black college). At the graduation ceremony Smith said that he and his family ”are going to put a little fuel in your bus” and made a grant to pay students loans of the entire class. Exactly how generous Mr Smith was is not known yet because the college is yet to calculate the total debt, but his donation is going to be around $10m. The students were in total shock and great relief at the same time, since they enter new stage in their life without a great burden.

  • Game of Thrones Analysis
    Game of Thrones Transmedia Storytelling Analysis Ott Vatter BFM Introduction Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama television series created for HBO by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. It is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin's series of fantasy novels, the first of which is titled A Game of Thrones. The unique transmedia experience was produced by New York based creative marketing agency Campfire. This paper is a transmedia analysis of the project Game of Thrones, written by Ott Vatter for the course Transmedia Storytelling, taught by Dr. Renira Gambarato. The course is part of the Baltic Film School’s Crossmedia Production Master program. The paper follows the methodology suggested by Dr. Renira Gambarato in the text “How to Analyze Transmedia Narratives” and the main goal of the analysis is to understand in which way transmedia storytelling strategies were implemented in the project, evaluating its strengths, weaknesses and trying to suggest possible improvements. As the TV series Game of Thrones has been accomplished with major success, it would take far more than 15 pages to analyze every related extension, so I with this essay I am going to discuss what I consider most relevant. I will try to do it as objectively as possible. Premise and purpose The purpose of the transmedia project is to promote the adaption of the fantasy novel "A Song of Ice and Fire" written by George R. R. Martin to the TV series Game of Thrones. The fundamental purpose of the TV show is to entertain, which it does very well through morally ambiguous characters.

Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Sport › News & Features Comment Varsity Roses College Cup Fantasy Football Premier League: Season Preview Now that the season is underway, Joe Napier outlines his predictions for the upcoming Premier League campaign… Sunday 12 August 2018 Wikimedia: Alienm2011 The Summer Transfer Window recently behind us, the top six, naturally, take the opening spotlight. Naturally, Manchester City take the favourites role after the tremendous success of last season. 100 points, 103 goals, a 19-point lead, they’ve got even stronger during the off-season. Riyad Mahrez, Leicester’s former talisman, could prove a shrewd acquisition, being more of a match-winner than Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva with enough flair to get fans off their seats. Let’s be honest, City didn’t need anyone and in spite of Liverpool’s impressive transfer business, it will take a monumental effort for anyone to catch them. That said, the Premier League has become notoriously difficult to defend. The last three defending champions have finished tenth, twelfth and fifth, Manchester United being the last team to retain the title back in 2009. Liverpool look best placed to go close. Their goalkeeping issue has seemingly been sorted with Alisson having initially broken the world record fee for a goalkeeper, before Chelsea smashed it late on. Naby Keita, Fabinho and Xherdan Shaqiri will all improve the squad in their respective positions, however, they may just leak too many goals again to usurp City. While Liverpool have fired their way into contention with their transfer dealings, the same cannot be said of Tottenham, who became the first team in the history of the Summer window, which started in 2003, to not sign a single player.

  • Fantastika Journal
    FANTASTIKA JOURNAL Volume 4 • Issue 1 • July 2020 ISSN: 2514-8915 Fantastika Journal • Volume 4 • Issue 1 • July 2020 EDITOR’S NOTE “Fantastika” A term appropriated from a range of Slavonic languages by John Clute. It embraces the genres of Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Horror, but can also include Alternate History, Gothic, Steampunk, Young Adult Dystopic Fiction, or any other radically imaginative narrative space. The goal of Fantastika Journal and its annual conference is to bring together academics and independent researchers who share an interest in this diverse range of fields with the aim of opening up new dialogues, productive controversies and collaborations. We invite articles examining all mediums and disciplines which concern the Fantastika genres. “Most people think time is like a river that flows swift and sure in one direction. But I have seen the face of time, and I can tell you: they are wrong. Time is an ocean in a storm. You may wonder who I am or why I say this. Sit down and I will tell you a tale like none you have ever heard.” (Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, 2003) Time is traditionally seen as being linear; the progression of one moment to the next, a strict separation of past, present, and future based on sequential and causational relationships. Yet memory, imagination, day-dreaming, nostalgia, planning and many other routine processes blur the boundaries between them as temporal linearity appears to fold back upon itself. Certainly, we cannot avoid the reality that time conceptually propels us along in one direction, but it is simultaneously multidirectional and chaotic.
