  • Cheap Eats, Grown Folks Karaoke, and More Secrets of Fort Greene
    December 20, 2017 Cheap eats, grown folks karaoke, and more secrets of Fort Greene Fort Greene Park is 30 acres on a hill that, at the top, has dramatic views of the city. cisc1970/Flickr Fort Greene is currently getting its close-up: The Brooklyn neighborhood is the setting for Spike Lee's Netflix show, She's Gotta Have It, a reboot of his 1986 film. The director famously grew up in the area, and one of the series' themes is how much things have changed. There's no question that Fort Greene is heavily gentrified. The New York Times was documentingthe neighborhood's "revitalization" as early as 1985. It's not difficult to figure out what draws moneyed newcomers: There are historic brownstone-lined blocks, a 30-acre park that's about to get $5 million in upgrades, abundant transit options (Atlantic Terminal is close by, and you'll find the C at Lafayette Avenue, the G at Fulton Street, the 2,3, 4 and 5 at Nevins Street, and the B and Q at Dekalb Avenue), arts venues, and an array of bars and restaurants. The past is still present in Fort Greene in many ways. In the heart of Fort Greene Park is a monument commemorating the thousands of men and women who died aboard British prison ships during the American revolution. A park bench is dedicated to the author Richard Wright, who penned his novel Native Son in the park many decades later. Not far from the park is the Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts, which celebrates the contributions of people of African descent, and has hosted exhibitions highlighting Brooklyn artists.

  • 1 Executive Summary Kuwait Is the Third
    Executive Summary Kuwait is the third-largest economy in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC, after Saudi Arabia and the UAE), and the Government of Kuwait has taken preliminary steps toward liberalizing sectors of its economy in the past year. Legislation passed in 2013 including a new FDI law and a commercial companies law aimed at easing constraints to doing business in Kuwait, and at establishing a “one stop shop” to help companies start operations in Kuwait. In March 2014, the Central Bank of Kuwait announced that foreign banks could open multiple branches in Kuwait – until that time, they could only open one branch. The April 2014 passage of historic telecommunications legislation potentially signals the government may liberalize the telecom sector and create opportunities for more competition in the coming years. After years of delays, the state oil companies in 2014 awarded several high-value contracts to foreign consortia to expand refinery capacities in Kuwait. Moves toward privatization of Kuwait’s stock exchange and its national airline have also begun. Nevertheless, Kuwait is perceived as a difficult place to invest in and do business with, and challenges to operating in the country remain. Kuwait ranked 104th in the world, and lowest in the GCC, on the World Bank’s 2014 ease of doing business survey, and the country has consistently attracted the lowest amounts of FDI in the entire Middle East and North Africa region. Implementation of new legislation has lagged, and significant barriers to foreign investment remain, including regulations barring foreign entities from the petroleum and real estate sectors, long bureaucratic delays in starting new enterprises, and a local business culture based on clan and family relationships that can be difficult for foreigners to navigate.

  • Benthic Microalgae on a Sheltered Intertidal Mudflat in Kuwait Bay of the Northern Arabian Gulf
    Epipsammic J.benthic Mar. Biol.microalgae Ass. India, of 49Kuwait (1) : 27Bay - 34, January - June 2007 27 Benthic microalgae on a sheltered intertidal mudflat in Kuwait Bay of the Northern Arabian Gulf S.Y.Al-Mohanna, P.George and M.N.V.Subrahmanyam Department of Biological Sciences, Marine Science Programme, Kuwait University, P.O.Box 5969, Safat 13060, Kuwait. Email:[email protected] Abstract The sheltered intertidal mudflats of Kuwait Bay have scanty macrophytes but are rich in microflora. The dominant epipsammic organisms of the microbial mats are cyanobacteria. Dominant cyanobacterial forms include Microcoleus chthonoplastes, Oscillatoria nigro-viridis, and Lyngbya aestuarii. Algal biomass (mea- sured as chlorophyll a concentrations) varied at the three study sites (A, S and K) reflecting their relative shelteredness. The mean annual chlorophyll a concentrations at sites A and S were 57 mg chl a m-2 and 315 mg chl a m-2 respectively. The most sheltered site K had a mean annual chlorophyll a concentration of 815 mg chl a m-2. Seasonal variation in the total epipsammic mat biomass contribution to the bay from the three sites was not observed reflecting its perennial nature in the sheltered Sulaibikhat Bay of Kuwait Bay. Keywords: Cyanobacteria, microflora, epipsammic, biomass, intertidal mudflats, Kuwait Bay Introduction Intertidal zones are subjected to naturally occurring (Figs.1 & 2). It extends 48 km inland from the Arabian fluctuations in water movement owing to tidal and wind Gulf, and is 40 km long and 25 km wide at the mouth. induced currents and waves.
