Full disclosure, my birthday was yesterday. Despite putting in research and studying throughout the week, I will not be doing full write-ups of my favorite players I like at each position as I usually do. Doing a full write-up is as time-consuming as it sounds. Of course, some extracurricular activities took place, which led us here—nonetheless, my sincerest apologies for cutting this article short this week. Instead, I’ve decided to break down my core plays, which should outline a solid shell of what your cash game lineup should look like. Typically, there is a padlock emoji next to the playe…

لندن, 14 نوفمبر / تشرين ثاني 2021 /PRNewswire/ — دفعت عمليات الإغلاق التي لا نهاية لها وقيود السفر وتعليق التأشيرات المؤقتة من قبل العديد من البلدان خلال الوباء الفرد ذوي القيمة الصافية العالية (HNWIs) على وجه الخصوص إلى البحث عن جنسية بديلة. بسبب هذه الزيادة في الطلب، وصل رئيس وزراء سانت كيتس ونيفيس، الدكتور تيموثي هاريس، إلى دبي، الإمارات العربية المتحدة. سيقوم رئيس الوزراء بالترويج لبرنامج الدولة للحصول على الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار (CBI) والدخول في اجتماعات لتعزيز العلاقات الثنائية بين البلدين خلال فترة إقامته.

يساعد برنامج الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار، مع تزايد الشكوك حول ضوابط رأس المال والضرائب المرتفعة والاضطراب السياسي، المستثمرين ورواد الأعمال في الشرق الأوسط على ضمان الأمن والتنقل لأنفسهم ولعائلاتهم. سانت كيتس ونيفيس St Kitts and Nevis ظلت الوجهة الأولى لراغبي برنامج الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار بين عملاء الشرق الأوسط لعدة عقود. وقد تأسس برنامج الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار في سانت كيتس ونيفيس عام 1984، وهو الخيار الأطول أمداً في السوق ومع ما يقرب من أربعة عقود من الخبرة.

وبحسب إحدى نشرات فاينانشال تايمز، فإن برنامج سانت كيتس ونيفيس يحتل المرتبة الأولى لعام 2021 كأفضل برامج الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار. كما أن سانت كيتس ونيفيس معروفة بامتلاكهم أكثر العروض شمولاً في منطقة البحر الكاريبي للوجهات بدون تأشيرة وتأشيرة عند الوصول. وفي الوقت الحالي، يمكن لمواطني سانت كيتس ونيفيس السفر إلى أكثر من 160 دولة ومنطقة عبر سبع قارات دون قيود على الأعمال الورقية الشاملة قبل المغادرة.

كما أنه من المتوقع حضور رئيس الوزراء هاريس احتفال العيد الوطني لسانت كيتس ونيفيس في دبي في 16 نوفمبر 2021. وعلاوة على ذلك، سيشارك وفده، الذي يضم ليس خان، الرئيس التنفيذي لوحدة الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار في الدولة، وجوستين هاولي، سفير الدولة لدى الإمارات العربية المتحدة، في العديد من الاجتماعات الثنائية والتفاعل مع مواطني الاتحاد المقيمين في المنطقة.

صرح ليس خان، الرئيس التنفيذي لوحدة الحصول على الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار في سانت كيتس ونيفيس، “لقد أدى حدوث كوفيد-19 منذ ما يقرب من عامين إلى مجموعة من الاتجاهات العالمية، بعضها متوقع وبعضها غير متوقع، حيث أعاد الناس تقييم خطط حياتهم بشكل جذري. كما أن أحد الاتجاهات الرئيسية التي شهدت ارتفاعًا هو استكشاف الأفراد لخيارات الحصول على جنسية ثانية في جميع أنحاء العالم. ومن أجل تسهيل عملية البحث عن الأمن بشكل أفضل لإخواننا وأخواتنا في الشرق الأوسط، فإن وحدة الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار في سانت كيتس ونيفيس لديها عرض لفترة محدودة على برنامج الجنسية عن طريق الاستثمار من فئة البلاتينية القياسية”.

يمكّن العرض المؤقت، الذي ينتهي في نهاية عام 2021، العائلات التي يصل عدد أفرادها حتى أربعة أفراد من الحصول على الجنسية مقابل 150,000 دولار أمريكي بدلاً من 195,000 دولار أمريكي. كما يمكن فقط للمتقدمين الذين يجتازون إجراءات العناية الواجبة الصارمة الاستثمار والتأهل للحصول على الجنسية. ويمكن للمستثمرين ضم مجموعة واسعة من المعالين من أفراد الأسرة كجزء من عملية التقديم الخاصة بهم.

Saudi Arabia official visit to France Strengthens Cultural Ties

Prince Badr addressed the UNESCO General Conference: “We congratulate UNESCO on its seventy-fifth anniversary, which the Kingdom has been a part of since the beginning as a founder member. Saudi Arabia is committed to working with UNESCO, and its members, in the efforts to unleash the power of culture.”

The day prior UNESCO and the Royal Commission for AlUla signed an agreement that will help preserve the globally significant area, enabling it to become a destination for heritage, nature, arts, and culture. It builds on an existing partnership, through which over 100 French archaeologists and experts are currently working onsite.

France and Saudi have a long history of ongoing cultural exchange. For example, fifty years ago King Khalid helped establish the Arab World Institute in Paris. In 2018, HRH Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud made an official visit to France, meeting with President Emmanuel Macron, where a significant cultural agreement between the two countries was signed.

The Kingdom is hosting a vibrant cultural program of over 100 cultural events, initiatives, and engagements during the coming months, including Saudi Arabia’s first art biennale, Ad-Diriyah Biennale, and first major international film festival, the Red Sea International Film Festival, which will feature French classics.

FSU (4-6, 3-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) snapped Miami’s four-game win streak in the rivalry series and three-game overall win streak that began with UM victories over then-top-20 NC State and Pitt. With the loss, the Hurricanes (5-5, 3-3) are eliminated from ACC title-game contention and still need to win one of their last two re…

Post date November 14, 2021

Dusty and partly cloudy weather conditions are expected to prevail on Sunday with spotty showers of rain that could turn heavy in the early morning hours, accompanied by thunder at times, over the southern areas.

The Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD) said that intermittent rain may extend later to cover the eastern and central regions, adding that the weather will tend to gradually stabilize in the afternoon, with southeasterly moderate to brisk winds.

In its daily brief, the JMD warned of poor horizontal visibility due to dust, especially in the southern, eastern and central regions, and of slippery roads in areas that witness downpour as well as flash floods in the valleys and lowlands in the southern highlands.

Pleasant conditions are forecast until Wednesday nationwide, with cooler weather prevailing in most regions, and the appearance of clouds at various altitudes, the JMD noted.

Temperatures in Amman today will reach 12 degrees Celsius, dipping to 11C at night, while the Gulf city of Aqaba will see a hot 28C, sliding into 18C at night.
