Thirdly, we don’t know if many of these young men would be planning to continue their education at uni- versity. Won’t this one year of service disrupt their enthusiasm for higher education? Already, we are suffer- ing from having too few college-educated young men in Kuwait. We don’t want to dis- courage young men from becoming bankers, engineers, doctors, lawyers, mechanics, etc. Also, some men who serve in the mili- tary adopt a mentality of total obedience to authority. So will the entire Kuwaiti nation stop questioning and criticizing its leader- ship in generations to come? Will we even have a parliament 20 years from now? Anyway, most devel- oped, industrialized nations such as Japan, UK, Germany, France and Canada either don’t have conscrip- tion or have abolished it, like Sweden. Nevertheless, it’s not a bad idea to instill some discipline and contain these young men, but I hope that the stan- dards and quality of training will be up to what Kuwait needs for now and the future. Only time will tell. SUNDAY, APRIL 30, 2017 LOCAL Local Spotlight Is Kuwait Bay safe? By Muna Al-Fuzai [email protected] he Public Authority for Agricultural Affairs and Fish Resources (PAAAFR) confirmed the discovery Tof significant quantities of dead fish, demanding that the Environment Public Authority pays attention to Kuwait Bay, which is the second largest incubator of fish wealth in the world, and follow up the harmful materi- als that are dumped in the sewers. Kuwait Bay, also known as ‘Jon Al-Kuwayt’ and where Kuwait city is located on its shores, is suffering from an environmental problem that needs attention and quick serious action. Kuwait Bay has several major activities existing around it, including commercial and industrial ones, and all these factors have led to the existence of pollution, thus creating major change in the features of this area and the water, which led to the death of fish in several occasions. I believe that the phenomenon of fish death is not KUWAIT: Kuwait Municipality carried out a campaign recently to clean the Kuwait Bay beach from tons of dead fish washed ashore ftera being killed due to rising pollution new in the world, but the recurrence of it at the same rates in the area. place means there is a flaw and need for treatment.

That run comprised seven wins and five draws. • Les Verts' nine-game unbeaten home run in Europe stretches back to the quarter-finals of the 1980/81 UEFA Cup, when a team featuring UEFA President Michel Platini lost 4-1 to Ipswich Town FC at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

  • 30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom
    30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom Katrin Horn When the sitcom 30 Rock first aired in 2006 on NBC, the odds were against a renewal for a second season. Not only was it pitched against another new show with the same “behind the scenes”-idea, namely the drama series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 30 Rock’s often absurd storylines, obscure references, quick- witted dialogues, and fast-paced punch lines furthermore did not make for easy consumption, and thus the show failed to attract a sizeable amount of viewers. While Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip did not become an instant success either, it still did comparatively well in the Nielson ratings and had the additional advantage of being a drama series produced by a household name, Aaron Sorkin1 of The West Wing (NBC, 1999-2006) fame, at a time when high-quality prime-time drama shows were dominating fan and critical debates about TV. Still, in a rather surprising programming decision NBC cancelled the drama series, renewed the comedy instead and later incorporated 30 Rock into its Thursday night line-up2 called “Comedy Night Done Right.”3 Here the show has been aired between other single-camera-comedy shows which, like 30 Rock, 1 | Aaron Sorkin has aEntwurf short cameo in “Plan B” (S5E18), in which he meets Liz Lemon as they both apply for the same writing job: Liz: Do I know you?

  • When the Stars Come Out: Jodie Foster's Queer Families and The
    ((( When the Stars Come Out: Jodie Foster’s Queer Families and the Celebrity Private Sphere Claire Bond Potter Am I your passion your promise your end? I say I am, yes I am Your passion your promise your end, yes I am —Melissa Etheridge1 When Jodie Foster came out at the 2013 Golden Globes, her revelation (such as it was) was greeted with empathy, cynicism, and confusion. What was she saying? Did she actually come out if she didn’t say the word “lesbian?” This should prompt the question—What does it mean for a celebrity to come out in the 21st century? Most of them don’t, even as the larger culture has become dramatically more knowledgeable about and supportive of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (GLBTQ) people. Does a celebrity coming out still matter? Following the 1997 “Puppy Episode” in which her daughter Ellen announced she was a lesbian, GLBTQ activist Betty DeGeneres told fans that: “Coming out is a gift.” But what kind of a gift? And to whom was it given? Like Ellen, some celebrities have come out not just to relieve anxiety about the dissonance between their private and public lives, but also because they have come to believe that they should use their influence on behalf of social justice.

  • Changing Perception of LGBT People Through Performances – Theater and Television in America and in Japan
    Changing Perception of LGBT People Through Performances – Theater and Television in America and in Japan Atsushi Fujita+ (Japan) Abstract This paper examines how LGBT representations in popular media have changed people’s perception and is eventually changing society. American TV programs and theater have played significant roles in terms of advancement of LGBT issues. I look at three TV shows that made LGBT people visible in American society, and three revival theatrical productions on Broadway that urge us to look back at the history and keep fighting for equality. Compared to the U.S., Japan has a long way to go in terms of LGBT issues. However, social and political changes are happening especially in recent years. I analyze three recent TV shows shedding positive light on LGBT characters and argue that the change in Japan has been happening in a similar way which demonstrates how important these cultural representations are for the change. Keywords: LGBT, LGBT Characters on American TV, LGBT Characters in American Theater, LGBT Characters on Japanese TV + Atsushi Fujita, Associate Professor, Aichi Gakuin University, Japan. email: [email protected]. Changing Perception of LGBT People… | 55 Introduction America’s dynamism in politics and social change is like a pendulum especially as it relates to the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) advancement in U.S. history. Just to look at it briefly, at least superficially, the lives of gay people improved as a result of gay liberation in the late 1960s and 1970s. During the AIDS crisis in the 1980s and the 1990s, there was a lot of discrimination and prejudice against people literally struggling for life.
