As for local funding, the reality of the matter is that the majority of these advocacy organizations in the Arab world work in a restricted political environment created by authoritarian regimes that do not welcome the concept of human rights. Moreover, these regimes work systematically and carefully to tame and restrict NGOs, often accusing them of treason and working for foreign bodies, all in search for a pretext to shut them down.
Arabs Got Talent (Arabic: أرابز غوت تالنت) is an Arab reality television talent show broadcast by MBC 1 in the Arab world; it is produced by the MBC and was first broadcast on 14 January 2011.[1] The show features contestants with a variety of talents, such as singing, break-dancing, comedians, magicians, and rapping. The show features three celebrity judges, popular in the Middle East. They currently are Lebanese singer Najwa Karam; the dean of the journalism school at the American University in Dubai Ali Jaber; and Ahmed Helmy, an Egyptian actor. The show's venue is in Lebanon.
This book set out to understand why, how, and with what consequences the Arab reality TV battles mixed politics, religion, business, and sexuality, setting Arab public discourse ablaze in times of political crisis, military strife, and religious tension. As we come to the end of the story, it is useful to recall some of the big questions that animated this book. The pretense of reality TV to represent reality inspired the first question: What is the relation between reality TV and social reality? Many Arab journalists, we have seen, grappled with the answer, which goes to the heart of the social authority of the media; a couple of years into the Arab reality TV polemics and two months after al-Hariri's assassination, a columnist captured the situation as follows:
Soltan Rahmati, now 35, calls herself a "conceptual artist." She uploads her music videos on YouTube; one of her hits, "FessenJoon," refers to a famous Persian stew made from pomegranate syrup and walnuts. "My videos get around," says Asa, who compares herself to Lady Gaga and M.I.A. "I get pulled over by Persian girls who want to take pictures of me. We don't have any people that are out in the public, that are living outside the box." Asa is among the six Persian-American stars of the new Bravo reality series Shahs of Sunset, one of spring's most buzzed-about TV shows. Shahs may have an odd title (none of its cast is actually royalty), but it possesses an even stranger TV lineage. Its producer is Ryan Seacrest, the same man who unleashed the Kardashians upon us.
Can one reality show actually change all that? The cast met me recently for a leisurely dinner in West Hollywood. This is the first interview they've given, and we quickly slipped into Farsi (much to the chagrin of the network publicists, who tried to eavesdrop). None of the six Persians were as over the top as they seem on TV. Some were born in the United States, but they all shared the familiar children-of-immigrants experience of walking a tightrope between two cultures. "I was a month old when we moved here," says Mike, who frequently bares his chiseled chest. "I give my dad a lot of credit. He worked tirelessly to give us everything. They came with nothing."
But the show does hope to become a similar cultural phenomenon, and if it does, it could cause ripples around the world. Imagine the irony of the Iranian regime being forced to comment on a Bravo reality show. All this raises a larger question: can the host of American Idol change our perception of Iranians so much that U.S. relations with Iran are changed too? "Do I think people will see us in a different light? Yes, I do," says GG. "We are not terrorists. Our money isn't from oil. We're not related to Saddam Hussein or Osama bin Laden."
A fundamental objective of this report is to demonstrate that the right tools can help highlight the reality of multidimensional child poverty in the Arab region and to underline the urgent need for a policy response. The report is intended to provide an evidence-base for dialogue with and amongst government partners at all levels. It seeks to advocate for the importance of routine monitoring of child deprivation, moving from ad hoc studies to routine evidence generation. The report provides a methodological approach for ways in which multidimensional child poverty can be measured robustly, regularly and routinely in the Arab States.
Chapter 1 provides the socio-economic context of the countries examined and describes the methodology used for the child poverty analysis. The following chapters analyse child poverty in 11 LAS member states by initially considering the general situation of multidimensionally poor children and subsequently, examining possible drivers of poverty more closely. Chapter 2 looks at the incidence and profile of child poverty today (in the most recent year post-2010). The 11 LAS member states are considered overall, comparing them and identifying country clusters. The chapter also examines the depth of child poverty. Chapter 3 looks at determinants of child poverty and inequality. The chapter includes a discussion of child protection, a crucial element of child well-being in the Arab States. Chapter 4 provides an analysis of trends in selected countries between 2000 (or the closest data set) and the most recently available and comparable data. Finally, Chapter 5 outlines overall findings and recommendations.
As these examples demonstrate, virtual reality, augmented reality and extended reality are no longer the preserve of big tech companies and niche enthusiasts. These technologies are already being used across sectors to overcome physical space barriers and enhance how individuals can interact with the world around them. As virtual technologies proliferate across homes, workplaces, classrooms and other aspects of everyday life, they have the potential to enhance businesses and public services and expand economic and social opportunities for individuals and entities.
Auto-fiction in its modern concept is considered an art that is a product of the modern cultural development that has conquered the world since 19 B.C. This 'culture' carries all the components of innovation and constant growth in human life, including the means of material and technological product, the scientific and medical prosperity, and appearance of new sciences in the arena of application and experimentation, which had not been known before, with new concepts, which helped a lot in understanding the human soul in all its conditions. Among the advantages of this awareness is the popularity of people's interests in what is known today in modern literature by the name of the art of auto-fiction. Thus, the writer's life or any life of any person who likes to write his autobiography are no more surrounded by precautions, prohibitions or taboos. Previously, it was forbidden to approach certain issues or even thinking about them because they were considered taboos. It is possible to consider rebellion against norms, breaking social shackles, overcoming all the difficulties of reality and aspiration for emancipation as the most important motives that characterize the woman's autobiography in the modern era. These motives characterize the modern woman's discourse, which is actually achieved in her autobiography at all levels.

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease in which the insulating cover of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord are damaged. The methods used for motor rehabilitation of patients with neurological problems require the performance of several rehabilitation exercises. Recently, studies related to the use of video game consoles have proliferated in the field of motor rehabilitation. Virtual reality (VR) has been proposed as a potentially useful tool for motoring assessment and rehabilitation. 041b061a72
