Liwan, Design Studios and Labs, in partnership with Qatar Reads, will present the second edition of the Liwan Library Forum Tuesday, bringing together experts from Qatar and the region to discuss pressing global issues through literature, art, and personal narratives. The forum from 2pm-7pm will feature a range of speakers. In addition, a special exhibition on “Stories from Gaza” will open in conjunction with the forum tomorrow, at 4pm. “This event is an opportunity to amplify voices, explore pressing global issues, and deepen understanding through art and literature as powerful mediums,” said Liwan director Aisha bint Nasser al-Suwaidi. “Stories from Gaza” presents an intimate and in-depth exploration of Palestinian experiences through art and personal expression. It is divided into five poignant sections that capture the essence of identity, resilience and hope. “This exhibition gives voice to adults and children from Gaza currently living in Qatar and sheds light on what matters to them, their stories of resilience, and how they express themselves,” said exhibition curator Amal Ali. In the “Alphabets of Gaza and Qatar” section, visitors will discover unexpected connections between two different countries, exploring how language and culture intersect and build bridges of understanding. The second section, “What If?” explores the imaginary world of children, asking profound questions – such as “What if I went to Jerusalem?” – and revealing the power of imagination in the face of harsh reality. Another section, “More Than a Flag, More Than a Land”, explores how the Palestinian flag has transformed from a mere banner into one of the most powerful symbols of freedom, resistance, and justice. “Stories of Resilience” captures poignant moments of adults living in the Gaza compound, revealing their conditions, their suffering, and the remarkable resilience they have shown through unimaginable circumstances. The final section, “Belonging and Expression Amidst Displacement”, celebrates the new relationships and connections that adults and children forged after their difficult journeys to Qatar, highlighting the human capacity for resilience, adaptation, and hope. The forum will also explore three in-depth themes, featuring speakers who will delve into topics related to poetry, activism, refugee experiences, and the power of storytelling. Notable speakers include Mustafa Matar, Renad Qubbaj, Abdullah Mir, and Dr Hanan Hindi. “It is a great honour to collaborate with the Liwan Library Forum for its second edition,” said Fatima al-Malki, director of the Qatar Reads Initiative. “This year’s theme focuses on the role of literature and art as powerful tools in highlighting refugee narratives, emphasising the importance of paving the way for reading and learning to pave the way for a more enlightened future,” she said. “Literature acts as a bridge that integrates readers into the fictional reality of characters while establishing deep connections with the experiences of people around the world, whether in Palestine, Sudan, or elsewhere,” al-Malki added. “The symposium will also include an art exhibition that complements the literary discussions, in addition to interactive workshops carefully organised by both teams.” The first theme, *Community Activism in Poetry and Art, explores the profound role of creative expression in confronting social and political injustice. Matar, poet and news anchor from Al-Rafidain TV, will highlight how artistic media have become tools for protest and dialogue. The second theme, *Stories from Gaza: Reshaping the Narrative, offers a personal exploration of Palestinian experiences. Renad Qubbaj, the general director of the Tamer Institute for Community Education in Palestine, and Kawthar al-Qar’a, a writer and language editor, will share their insights into the resilience, creativity, and ever-positive spirit of Gazans. The final theme of the symposium, *The Refugee Experience: From Fiction to Reality, offers a global perspective on human displacement and migration. Journalist and climate activist Mir and Dr Hindi, an academic adviser at Northwestern University in Qatar, will discuss how refugee experiences have shifted from marginal narratives to urgent global realities. The exhibition “Stories from Gaza” focuses on these themes, allowing visitors to reflect on a moving collection of works that capture the painful experiences of adults and children from the Gaza complex, a statement added. Related Story QNL backs initiative to preserve Palestinian, Lebanese heritage QNL explores strategies to support language development among childrenHave you ever gazed out at the sea and felt the world become smaller? Perhaps you have swum in its waters and felt that time stood still, that the noise and chatter of the world faded away to a distant whisper, or you have marveled as the sun slid gently beneath its horizon. Being near natural bodies of water, especially the sea, has proven health benefits. This effect has been dubbed “blue health,” which scientists have offered a number of explanations. Being near water often means we do more physical activity, while natural surroundings also have a restorative effect on our mental wellbeing and social lives, meaning they also have mental health benefits. Furthermore, blue spaces can improve overall environmental quality, which brings indirect health benefits. The biophilia hypothesis explores how the sea is our biological point of origin. It is one of the three main theories that explain humans’ attraction to the body of water. The other two are the theory of psychophysiological stress recovery, and attention restoration theory. These ideas are not mutually exclusive, and all three contribute to the sense of wellbeing that the sea gives us. Be it walking on the sand, in a boat on its surface, diving beneath the waves, or just observing or meditating on it, the sea allows us to set our mental struggles to one side and to feel free. It can help us to find what psychologists call “restoration,” and this sense of wellbeing is something we often struggle to find on our own. Blue health can be a powerful tool in reducing stress and improving our moods. Our connection to nature helps us to put our own worries in perspective–it restores our attention by warding off the preoccupations that dominate our attention in our daily lives. Not only do they bring physical and emotional wellbeing, reconnecting with the sea also allows a person, regardless of their limitations, to experience the freedom and connection that it can offer. The sea belongs to everyone, and we all deserve to feel its immense, transformative power. The Conversation

Bluesky, the rapidly growing social media platform, is violating EU regulations by failing to disclose important details, a European Commission spokesperson told reporters during a daily briefing on Monday. “All platforms in the EU even the smallest ones which are below the threshold, which is the case for Bluesky, have to have a dedicated page on their website where it says how many user numbers they have in the EU and where they are legally established. This is not the case for Bluesky as of today,” the spokesperson said. Lately: An exodus from X to Bluesky, influencer income and AI safety He also stated that since Bluesky falls below the threshold and is not classified as a Very Large Platform under the EU’s Digital Services Act, the commission has not yet reached out to the company. Instead, it has contacted the 27 national governments to check “if they can find any trace of Bluesky.” Bluesky did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment.
Odumodu Blvck knocks fans trying to cause rift between him and DavidoLAS VEGAS — Players Era Festival organizers have done what so many other have tried — bet their fortunes in this city that a big payoff is coming. Such bet are usually bad ones, which is why so many massive casino-resorts have been built on Las Vegas Boulevard. But it doesn't mean the organizers are wrong. They're counting on the minimum of $1 million in guaranteed name, image and likeness money that will go to each of the eight teams competing in the neutral-site tournament that begins Tuesday will create a precedent for other such events. EverWonder Studios CEO Ian Orefice, who co-founded Players with former AND1 CEO Seth Berger, compared this event to last year's inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament that played its semifinals and final in Las Vegas by saying it "did really well to reinvigorate the fan base at the beginning of the year." "We're excited that we're able to really change the paradigm in college basketball on the economics," Orefice said. "But for us, it's about the long term. How do we use the momentum that is launching with the 2024 Players Era Festival and be the catalyst not to change one event, but to change college basketball for the future." Orefice and Berger didn't disclose financial details, but said the event will come close to breaking even this year and that revenue is in eight figures. Orefice said the bulk of the revenue will come from relationships with MGM, TNT Sports and Publicis Sport & Entertainment as well as sponsors that will be announced later. Both organizers said they are so bullish on the tournament's prospects that they already are planning ahead. Money made from this year's event, Orefice said, goes right back into the company. "We're really in this for the long haul," Orefice said. "So we're not looking at it on a one-year basis." Rick Giles is president of the Gazelle Group, which also operates several similar events, including the College Basketball Invitational. He was skeptical the financial numbers would work. Giles said in addition to more than $8 million going to the players, there were other expenses such as the guarantees to the teams. He said he didn't know if the tournament would make up the difference with ticket sales, broadcast rights and sponsorship money. The top bowl of the MGM Grand Garden Arena will be curtained off. "The math is highly challenging," Giles said. "Attendance and ticket revenues are not going to come anywhere close to covering that. They haven't announced any sponsors that I'm aware of. So it all sort of rests with their media deal with Turner and how much capital they want to commit to it to get these players paid." David Carter, a University of Southern California adjunct professor who also runs the Sports Business Group consultancy, said even if the Players isn't a financial success this year, the question is whether there will be enough interest to move forward. "If there is bandwidth for another tournament and if the TV or the streaming ratings are going to be there and people are going to want to attend and companies are going to want to sponsor, then, yeah, it's probably going to work," Carter said. "But it may take them time to gain that traction." Both founders said they initially were met with skepticism about putting together such an event, especially from teams they were interested in inviting. Houston was the first school to commit, first offering an oral pledge early in the year and then signing a contract in April. That created momentum for others to join, and including the No. 6 Cougars, half the field is ranked. "We have the relationships to operate a great event," Berger said. "We had to get coaches over those hurdles, and once they knew that we were real, schools got on board really quickly." The founders worked with the NCAA to make sure the tournament abided by that organization's rules, so players must appear at ancillary events in order to receive NIL money. Strict pay for play is not allowed, though there are incentives for performance. The champion, for example, will receive $1.5 million in NIL money. Now the pressure is on to pull off the event and not create the kind of headlines that can dog it for years to come. "I think everybody in the marketplace is watching what's going to happen (this) week and, more importantly, what happens afterwards," Giles said. "Do the players get paid on a timely basis? And if they do, that means that Turner or somebody has paid way more than the market dictates? And the question will be: Can that continue?" CREIGHTON: P oint guard Steven Ashworth likely won’t play in the No. 21 Bluejays’ game against San Diego State in the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas. Ashworth sprained his right ankle late in a loss to Nebraska on Friday and coach Greg McDermott said afterward he didn’t know how long he would be out. Get local news delivered to your inbox!
Mace, activist dispute handshake that resulted in arrestPledging to take on the affordable housing crisis and bring down health care costs, Adam Schiff was sworn in Monday by Vice President Kamala Harris as California’s junior U.S. senator . The Burbank Democrat will serve out the remaining term of the late Dianne Feinstein after winning a special election for the unexpired term. In January, Schiff’s full six-year tenure will begin. In a statement after taking the oath of office on the Senate floor, Schiff didn’t name President-elect Donald Trump, but the new senator is in the same political balancing act as Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has pledged an “open hand, not a closed fist” approach to the incoming administration. “I will work with Democrats, Republicans, and Independents to help our state and our families succeed,” Schiff said in the statement . “At the same time, I will not shrink from my duty to defend our democracy and will vigorously protect the rights and freedoms of the American people and the people of California.” Schiff, who served 23 years in the House , rose to national prominence as one of Trump’s most outspoken critics, leading the first impeachment trial in 2020 and serving on the committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots by Trump’s supporters. Trump has labeled Schiff an “ enemy within ” and a “ sleazebag .” And just Sunday, Trump repeated his threat to punish his political adversaries, saying of those on the Jan. 6 committee: “Honestly, they should go to jail.” Schiff, however, said he does not want a preemptive pardon from President Joe Biden in case Trump follows through, calling it “ unnecessary .” Schiff’s first opportunity to push back on Trump could be confirmation hearings on the president-elect’s contentious Cabinet picks, though the Senate won’t vote on them until after the Jan. 20 inauguration. Trump announced Monday that he has nominated Harmeet Dhillon , a California Republican leader and conservative attorney , as assistant attorney general for civil rights. Trump praised her for representing Christians restricted from gathering during the COVID lockdowns, suing companies for “woke” policies and fighting election fraud. Schiff serves alongside U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla — ending California’s 30-year long streak of having at least one female senator. Schiff replaces Laphonza Butler , who was appointed after Feinstein’s death in September 2023 but didn’t seek to keep the seat. He will be succeeded in the House next month by Democrat Laura Friedman, a former Assemblymember and Glendale mayor.What happens when Tesla, Intel CEOs lose their pay plans? They're still super rich
WASHINGTON — Macy's reported weaker-than-expected preliminary sales for the fiscal third quarter and said it's delaying the release of its quarterly earnings results after it discovered an up to $154 million accounting-related issue. The department store chain, which also operates Bloomingdale's and Bluemercury cosmetics chain in addition to its namesakes stores, was expected to report quarterly results on Tuesday. The retailer said Monday that it identified an issue related to delivery expenses in one of its accrual accounts earlier this month. An independent investigation and forensic analysis found that a single employee with responsibility for small package delivery expense accounting intentionally made erroneous accounting accrual entries to hide roughly $132 million to $154 million of expenses from the fourth quarter of 2021 through the fiscal quarter ended November 2. The company recognized about $4.36 billion of delivery expenses during the same time period. Macy's said that there's no indication that the erroneous accounting accrual entries had any impact on its cash management activities or vendor payments. The company added that the person behind the conduct is no longer an employee and that the investigation didn't identify involvement by any other worker. Macy's said is it delaying reporting its third-quarter earnings results to complete an independent investigation. It anticipates reporting its full third-quarter financial results by Dec. 11. “At Macy’s Inc., we promote a culture of ethical conduct," Chairman and CEO Tony Spring said in a statement. "While we work diligently to complete the investigation as soon as practicable and ensure this matter is handled appropriately, our colleagues across the company are focused on serving our customers and executing our strategy for a successful holiday season.” The company did provide some preliminary results for its third quarter, including that net sales fell 2.4% to $4.74 billion, slightly above the average analyst estimate of $4.72 billion. Macy's Inc.'s comparable sales — sales from established physical and online channels — were down 2.4%, excluding licensed businesses like cosmetics. By division, Macy's comparable sales were down 3%, while Bloomingdale's comparable sales rose 1%. Bluemercury's comparable sales rose 3.3%, Macy's stock was basically unchanged in premarket trading after falling more than 3% earlier in the morning on Monday.
