| Shari'a and The Muslim World: An Interview With Noah Feldman | | 2008-06-22 11:51:21 | | The topic below was originally posted on my blog on Thursday, June 19th, when the interview took place.Shari’a is a code of law based on the Koran. In the Muslim world, many want to replace corrupt autocratic regimes with the Shari’a and establish traditional Islamic states. Western countries regard the Shari’a as a threat. Islamic parties are winning elections on it. Militants have used the Shari’a to justify acts of terrorism. Meanwhile, secular minded people find their most severe provisions repugnant.In his latest book, The Fall and Rise of the Islamic State (Princeton University Press), Noah Feldman tells the story behind the populist movement in the Muslim world to establish the Shari’a. Feldman addresses questions about why the Shari’a is popular in spite of its harsh code and whether the Islamic state can succeed.He also explains how the classical Islamic constitution governed and was legitimized by law. Feldman argues that prior to the reforms of the modern era, th | | By: The Peace Tree | | |

We are doing the exact same thing in our day and we think we are so "advanced". The reality is that we are advanced in wickedness.Why must we always provoke the Lord?At the top of this article is a picture of a genetically grown mouse with a human ear.How long will God let this type of thing go on?

La successiva perquisizione ha portato gli agenti a scoprire la presenza di droga nelle sue tasche. Ora l'ala-centro dei Chicago Bulls dovrà comparire davanti al giudiceDalla cronaca sportiva a quella nera. Yoakim Noah, il figlio del tennista francese Yannick che ha scelto il basket e gioca da ala-centro nella Nba americana con i Chicago Bulls, è stato arrestato perché trovato in possesso di marijuana. Noah junior, prima scelta Nba lo scorso anno dopo aver condotto l’Università della Florida al titolo Ncaa, è stato fermato la scorsa notte da un agente di polizia di Gainesville perché aveva in mano un bicchiere di plastica con dell’alcol (bere in luoghi pubblici è proibito dalla legge della città, come in gran parte degli Stati Uniti).

| | Gasser Ad Campaign - By Winkler & Noah | | 2008-03-15 11:29:15 | | I received these great pictures in the mail today, from Winkler & Noah, a photography firm based in Italy. You can click on the pictures to view them in a larger size.
Winkler & Noah is the trademark of two world renown, award-winning Italian photographers - Romina Raffaelli and Stefano Marini.
The ad campaign for Gasser Frankfurters features look-alikes of iconic smokers from television and history, posing with sausage sticks instead of stupid Cigars.
You can visit their official site to see some great examples of portrait and advertising photography.
The site has some artistic nùdity, and so is definitely NSFW.

| NOAH GORDON | | 2008-01-03 01:51:53 | | Para aquellos con ansias de escritores –como yo-, muy recomendable este artículo de NOAH GORDON, recién publicado en BABELIA.Anatomía de un 'best seller'Las entrevistas pueden ser agradables -incluso placenteras- o, por desgracia, todo lo contrario. Al haberme ganado la vida durante años como periodista, siempre intento tratar al entrevistador como me gustaba que me trataran a mí cuando desempeñaba esa labor: con educación, un humor decente, una franqueza que no llegue al suicidio y el grado más elevado de cooperación.Sin embargo, reconozco que, como entrevistado, dos preguntas aburridas y omnipresentes me han llevado a actuar con impaciencia y rencor:¿Puede un best seller ser un buen libro? Y... ¿existe una fórmula para escribir un best seller?Aunque me he topado con ambas preguntas en otros países, la frecuencia con que se han planteado en España es señal de una fascinación natural que me ha confundido y molestado.¿Es bueno un buen libro?Creo que las definiciones son mejores cuando el lenguaje es preciso y sencillo. Un best seller es un libro que ha vendido más que otros. ¿Es posible que esto suceda con un "buen" libro?Es de suponer que el querido español Miguel de Cervantes así lo creía. Fue testigo de la venta de 30.000 copias de su gran clásico Don Quijote antes de morir. En 1885 John Ormsby, el traductor británico, escribió que "a excepción de la Biblia, ningún libro se ha difundido tanto como Don Quijote".Por lo general se coincide en que la Biblia ha vendido más que cualquier otro libro en la historia de la humanidad, a saber, unos 6.000 millones de copias.El Corán ha vendido unos 800 millones. Es posible que vendiera incluso más ejemplares si su religión no exhortara a los 1.500 millones de musulmanes del mundo a memorizar el Corán en su totalidad, lo cual posibilitaría la sustitución de la palabra escrita por la hablada.Una diferencia ortográficaMuchos diccionarios modernos ofrecen dos grafías con una misma definici | | By: Atormentadero | | |
| | CD Review: Noah Harrison - It May Only Be Ignorance | | 2007-11-01 12:03:00 | | CD Review: Artist: Noah HarrisonTitle: It May Only Be IgnoranceWebsite: http://www.noahharrison.comStyle: Acoustic/Lyrical/AmbientBy Staff Writer L. Anne Carrington Holding a sound that is both poetically inspective and gently compelling, It May Only Be Ignorance is an existential examination that builds and grows as its ten tracks progress. Based out of Portland, Maine, Noah is a singer/songwriter who had released his debut EP, Songs for a Long Night, in 2005. A quote from his website states that "prior and throughout all this he inhaled, exhaled and occasionally coughed. Listen, and you may hear plenty others doing the same." As with his debut release, this second CD by Noah is an entirely solo effort; a musical journey created via pen, paper and a guitar. This album also displays his first effort into audio engineering, and after giving It May Only Be Ignorance a listen, it all blends in very well. There's a lot of soul that's been poured into his music and as those who hear this album listen to all the songs and connect with each one, it is as if they stay and become part of our own lives. This self-recorded work is clean, lush and very full. Despite it being mostly layered guitars and luminous vocal harmonies, the end result is far from lacking in depth and display of Noah's full potential as an artist in addition to placing him in his own unique right. His music can be compared to early Leonard Cohen and Nick Drake; mainly employing various finger-picking styles and guitar tunings, he creates atmospheric melodies to accompany his songs. If one is seeking music that has a more acidic edge to it, this wouldn't be a wise choice; however, if you're seeking something a little more atmospheric and softer for something to accompany a relaxing fall evening, then this CD would be one of many perfect choices. Buy it now. | | By: Indie Music Stop | | |

| | Noah And The Whale Session | | 2007-10-01 13:09:00 | | Noah And The Whale have this overwhelming knack off making me smile everytime i hear their music. Its not even inheritantly happy, there's an undercurrent of glumness that runs through every note but that can't stop my teeth showing. They make me smile like you do when you see a baby make a funny face or when you see kittens playing with a ball of wool. Its very treacley music, sweet, naive and viscous with hopefulness and maybe its that childish optimism and playfulness which seeps through the melancholy, like the sun on a gloomy day, that makes me smile .Maybe i'm just a sucker for a good tune and a soppy lyric but i know that right at this very moment there's a beaming grin on my face that wasn't there a few minutes ago and i suppose that all that mattersNoah And The Whale brought their sunshine indie-pop to Huw Stephens Radio1 show a couple of weeks ago to promote their debut single 5 Years Time and here it is for your smile-inducing pleasure.Noah And The Whale - Jocasta (Radio 1 Session) Noah And The Whale - Two Bodies, One Heart (Radio 1 Session) Noah And The Whale - 5 Years Time (Radio 1 Session) | | By: funfunfun | | |

The single Rainbowarriors, which is great, can be heard&seen here. There's quite some unclairity around the album (& the two sisters). Want to know more? Read this, this, and while you're busy this.Btw, Pitchfork Media doesn't seem to like CR; Noah's Ark 3.4/10, The Adventures 2.3/10. At least La Maison De Mon Rêve gets a 6.9/10.Back to business;Noah's Ark by CocoRosieNot quite the average album.

| | The Mules + Lightspeed Champion + Noah & The Whale @ The Big Chill House | | 2007-08-15 07:26:00 | | Still on-going, the Mules' free weekly residency at The Big Chill House has boasted some impressive line ups over the past few weeks, Napolean IIIrd, Johnny Flynn, Emmy The Great, Eugene McGuiness but the one i choose to go to a few weeks ago (sorry for the lateness of this review) had the best line up of them all.Opening were Noah & The Whale, who when i saw them last November, were a two piece comprising of a drummer and frontman and guitarist Charlie. The band now consists of 5 members and the extra waves of sound from the violin and keyboard filled out the already excellent tunes, making them rounded and smoother. Also that night, additional vocals by the amazingly cute and very talented Laura Marling added a femininity to the music that softened its edges - even though i just said the music was round. They played a few tunes that have been on consistent rotation on my playlist, like Rocks & Daggers with its subdued start and raucous fiddle-driven ending and 5 Years Time, their fo | | By: funfunfun | | |

| | Noah's Ark | | 2007-07-08 22:32:04 | | The Lord spoke to Noah and said, "In six months I am going to make it rain until the whole world is covered with water and all the evil things are destroyed. But, I want to save a few good people and two of every living thing on the planet. I am ordering you to build an ark." And, in a flash of lightning, he delivered the specifications for the ark. "OK," Noah said, trembling with fear and fumbling with the blueprints, "I'm your man."

| | More of Toyota's Voxy and Noah Back to Back | | 2007-06-30 04:19:44 | | Toyota persuaded manufacturers to have both automobiles equally outfitted with efficient and well-designed features. The product is now one which comes with a guarantee that everyone who will use it would find it easy to use. For the record, both vehicles are first timers in using "one-touch folding" third-row seats plus second-row "long-slide multi-use rotating" seats which go along with a child seat mode. | | By: The Toyota Headlines | | |
| | | Noah Thomas v. Sims II!....NOT! | | 2007-06-08 20:09:00 | | This season of the Ultimate Fighter has been pretty entertaining thus far. Contestants of course battle it out and try to become “The Ultimate Fighter.” Nonetheless, the producers of the show were sincere enough to allow eliminated fighters to remain in the house to continue training, with fighting rights taken away. Er, um, more like “official” rights taken away.I mean, you have a big ol’ mansion, stuffed with a bunch of fighters whose egos are bigger than their heads and you tell them they can’t leave the house unless told to. It’s a formula for bad news. In the season’s eighth episode enmity arose between contestants: Marlon Sims and Noah Thomas, both of whom lost their preliminary bouts early in the show. Drunk and ego driven, a street brawl broke out between the two, labeled by Cole Miller as “the most technical street-fight ever.” I couldn’t have said it better myself. The fight was actually pretty entertaining in my opinion. From Thomas being slammed on his | | By: The Irish Whip | | |
