Why, Oh Why? (Updated)

I always hate to read statements like this one from Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury:

The Archbishop of Canterbury says the adoption of certain aspects of Sharia law in the UK "seems unavoidable".

Dr Rowan Williams told Radio 4's World at One that the UK has to "face up to the fact" that some of its citizens do not relate to the British legal system.

Dr Williams argues that adopting parts of Islamic Sharia law would help maintain social cohesion.

For example, Muslims could choose to have marital disputes or financial matters dealt with in a Sharia court.lire la suite

  • Why $52 Million Just Isn’t What It Used To Be — The Fundraising Woes of the Obama Campaign: Updated

    Posted by WLS: Updated** —  Note below that I say the Obama campaign and the DNC have a combined $72 million cash on hand at the end of June.  This is being reported elsewhere that Obama has $72 million cash on hand.  On this washingtonpost blog they repeat the $72 million number, and claim the DNC has another $20 million, giving them a combined $92 million, nearly as much as McCain and the RNC.

  • When Good Firmware Goes Bad... And Why You Should Wait To Update [Firmware]

    "Firmware update" sounds like something you'd want. Something solid, yet fresh and new. But lately deciding to update is getting more complicated. The newest firmware is no longer just a nice downloadable present from a benevolent electronics overlord; on many devices, it has been buggy or downright dangerous to install. Manufacturers like Apple, Nintendo and Sony are increasingly releasing firmware that disables functionality for business reasons—or that just make products worse by being halfbaked.

  • I love my friends but why am I between them and you?

    One thing that happened in 2007 is that we finally saw real value in having lots of friends on online services. Keep in mind that “friends” online aren’t quite like “friends” offline. First of all, they don’t take you to dinner on a Friday night like Rocky did. Second of all, you might never have met them face-to-face. But let’s leave that argument out of it for this post, OK? The thing is my online “social networking” friends have added a great deal of value to my life.

  • Five Reasons Why "Teach Women Self-Defense" Isn't a Comprehensive Solution to Rape

    Before I start this post in earnest, I want to make it clear that I am not suggesting that women should not take self-defense courses, that women should not get involved in martial arts, or that there's no such thing as a woman who has successfully defended herself against assault, sexual or otherwise. What this post is intended to address is the exceedingly common recommendation in rape threads that women should "learn how to protect themselves" as the (one.

  • Why we’re going to FastCompany.tv

    Ahh, Andy Plesser broke my career news again (he was the guy who broke my news about leaving Microsoft too). Louis Gray got the story first, though, I think, although I told dozens of people at the BlogHaus last week at CES. First of all, thanks to John Furrier, James McCormick, and the entire PodTech team. I grew a lot over the past year due to the opportunities they gave me and that turned into hundreds of interviews on ScobleShow.

    why you should be excited about dash Published on January 17th, 2008 in gps navigation Dash is, in our opinion, the pioneer in 2nd generation GPS navigation systems. Big names in the market are sure to follow their lead, and have actually started releasing their own models (see magellan maestro 5340). But, it looks like Dash will be the first to hit the market. They are currently taking pre-orders.

  • why I don't twitter. and, why do you twitter?

    I don't twitter. Millions have asked me for my twitter handle. Millions. Yet, I stick with the simple philosophical reason that no one cares and that's why I don't twitter. Why I don't twitter · No one cares enough to read through dozens and dozens of updates. People don't care enough about my life to want to know what I'm doing (all the time). · I don't care enough to want to let the world know what I'm doing (all the time).
