Although the Mehlis Report is all that anyone talks about, Saman never learns who Detlev Mehlis blames for the assassination of Hariri because Saman has a heart attack on October 20, 2005.
Speaking about the themes of the song in a behind the scenes interview, Ginsburg explained that the majority of the lyrics were written in relation to "being a stuntman", in line with the content of the Jackass TV series and films. Miller added to this explanation by noting that Ginsburg and the band based the song on Jackass 3D and "tried to make it about just going for it – in stunts and stuff like that". Ginsburg also revealed that the line "We'll never die in the afterworld" in the chorus was originally intended to be "We'll never die in the 3D world", although it was eventually changed due to the association with Jackass 3D being "overkill" according to Bam Margera.
The Emergence of Pets as Family and the Socio-Historical Development of Pet Funerals in Japan. Anthrozoos: A Multidisciplinary Journal of the Interactions of People & Animals, 22(4). 333. The concept of vengeful spirits comes from the belief that “small animals such as cats and dogs were believed to be able to travel freely between the here- and-now and the afterworld, and to possess the power to wreak spiritual vengeance (tatari) on people”. In order to ensure that the living would not be harmed, and in some instances to enlist good luck or protection from the animal spirit, special procedures were required, such as burial in a specific location of significance or inclusion of certain items within the animal's grave.
The work is a response to a letter sent to al-Maʿarri by a self-righteous grammarian and traditionist, ʿAlī ibn Manṣūr al-Ḥalabī, known as Ibn al-Qāriḥ. In the words of Suzanne Pinckney Stetkevych, > In his epistle, Ibn al-Qāriḥ sanctimoniously flaunts his own learning and > orthodoxy by impugning a number of poets and scholars for being zindīqs, or > heretics. He thereby insinuates a challenge to the religious beliefs of al- > Maʿarrī, who expressed in his poetry ideas considered heretical by many. Al- > Maʿarrī takes up this challenge in his response, Risālat al-Ghufrān, by > presenting a tour de force of his own extraordinary learning, and further by > offering an imaginary and derisive depiction of Ibn al-Qāriḥ in the Islamic > afterworld.
Spike is almost on his own against the forces of darkness, yet is arguably the cheeriest person seen in the books: he is jocular, easy-going and is rarely serious or distressed in his work. He loses his cool only rarely; and although he once, seemingly in a fit of depression, considered the possibility of self- sacrifice/suicide, admitting that "battling the undead was never a bowl of cherries," he was in fact trying to trick both Thursday and a Supreme Evil Being. In Something Rotten he offers to take Thursday's place in the afterworld when she is about to die, now knowing that his wife is an assassin, but Thursday persuades him to stay for the sake of their daughter Betty. Ultimately, his wife gives her life to save Thursday.
The German-speaking afterworld thus gained terms such as "Fernsprechapparat" (distance-speaking-device) for telephone, "Wertzeichen" (value-sign) for stamp, "postlagernd" (post-office-stored) for poste restante and "Anschrift" (towards-lettering, analogous to "Ansprache" or "Anrede" for addressing a person or a salutation) for address. The word creations mandated by von Stephan in the 1870s gained circulation at post offices and among its workforce, but many times the Greek or French original term was retained by German speakers. Thus at home people would say "frankieren" for putting stamps on a postcard or letter envelope (Briefumschlag) among themselves, but switch to "freimachen" (absolve from stamp-debt, thus permitting delivery) when at the post office. Or at home they would say "Telefon" in everyday speech, although the arcane official term was "Fernsprecher" (remote speaker) or Fernsprechapparat.
A 19th-century opera singer is murdered on-stage shortly before her forthcoming wedding. Soon after being slain by the nefarious Dr. Emmanuel Droz during a live performance, Malvina van Stille is spirited away to the inventor's remote villa to be reanimated and forced to play the lead in a grim production staged to recreate her abduction. As the time for the performance draws near, piano tuner of earthquakes Felisberto sets out to activate the seven essential automata who dot the dreaded doctor's landscape and make sure all the essential elements are in place. Once again instilled with life after her brief stay in the afterworld, amnesiac Malvina is soon drawn to the mysterious Felisberto as a result of his uncanny resemblance to her one-time fiancé Adolfo.
He had no time to investigate: the violent waves hurled him against the wall. Trapped in some sort of channel, convinced he was dead and now within the tunnel that connects the world of the living with that of the dead, he was still certain of this state when he re-emerged in the middle of a bright colored garden of a mysterious palace unknown to anyone. Chang Tse was determined to become the first to discover this secret place. But the palace was not an easy place to explore, besides being rather disquieting: the four sides of the garden were decorated with the figures of mythological animals accompanying one to the afterworld, yet the magnificence of the place did not bring one to presume of a burial chamber.
It is narrated by the Biblical King David of Israel, and purports to be his deathbed memoirs; however, this David does not recount his life in a straightforward fashion, and the storyline is often hilariously fractured. Indeed, it is possible to read the book as Heller's meditation upon his own mortality, and an exploration of the Jewish view of family, life, death, etc. All of the major touchstones of King David's life are in place: his childhood herding sheep, the prophet Samuel, Goliath, King Saul, Jonathan (and homosexual innuendoes), Bathsheba and Uriah, the Psalms, the treachery of Absalom, Solomon, etc. At some points, David betrays knowledge of the future (he mentions Michelangelo's David, saying it is ironic that a King of the Jews should stand there uncircumcised), and even of heaven (Moses sits on a rock in the afterworld, working on his stutter) - we are left to guess whether or not this stems from his special relationship with God, as no answers are forthcoming.
It is unclear, however, whether the woman was also a Christian. Features such as the typically Christian east- west orientation of the graves have been cited in support of a Christian affiliation, but on the other hand the cemetery was built on an ancient pagan site and there is no obvious reason why a Christian princess would not have been buried at Whitby alongside fellow Christians. As Christianity was spreading across the region at this time, the possible Christian features of the cemetery could be due simply to local social convention favouring some Christian styles in burial rituals, even for non-Christians. Steve Sherlock considers the bed burial to be "stridently pagan, a sort of rare, female equivalent of ship burials, as she is laid out on a vehicle to deliver her to the afterworld," however, and he suggests that she may have been the centre of a pagan cult that was active alongside local Christians.
The vessels found are eloquent testimony to the artistic and technical achievements of their makers, and they hold clues about the organization of the society that commissioned them. Painted ceramic vessels from Susa in the earliest first style are a late, regional version of the Mesopotamian Ubaid ceramic tradition that spread across the Near East during the fifth millennium B.C. The Anubanini rock relief, circa 2300 BC. Susa I style was very much a product of the past and of influences from contemporary ceramic industries in the mountains of western Iran. The recurrence in close association of vessels of three types—a drinking goblet or beaker, a serving dish, and a small jar—implies the consumption of three types of food, apparently thought to be as necessary for life in the afterworld as it is in this one. Ceramics of these shapes, which were painted, constitute a large proportion of the vessels from the cemetery.
Afterworld (first aired in 2007) is a computer-animated American science fiction television series where a network of satellites firing persistent electronic pulses, combined with a strange nanotechnology, has not only destroyed most electronic technology on the planet, but also caused the deaths of 99% of humanity, and is now causing strange mutations to occur in lower forms of life. NBC's Revolution (2012–2014) also revolved around a "change" after which the principles of electricity and physics are inoperable. However, the focus of the story was how a group of protagonists tried to get the power back on while opposing the efforts of a tyrannical militia leader to understand it first (so that he can take absolute power). The web series H+: The Digital Series (2012-2013) depicts in part, the aftermath of a world in which a computer virus that infected a popular brain-computer interface killed one- third of the population, leading to a breakdown in order and the lack or shortage of electricity and other modern conveniences.
Analyzing waqf deeds (waqfiyyat) and their entitlement stipulations he found that circumventing inheritance law was only a byproduct of the major purpose of founding the family waqf, which is mainly the belief in pious charity that compensates the endower in the afterworld. The popular endowers' stipulation to dedicate entitlements to orphan children of the family strengthens the act of charity of waqf to meet the above goal of dedication. In his book, Waqf in Jerusalem during 1948-1990, Reiter found that Islamic institutions have struggled for their existence, and succeeded in maintaining their status and sometimes even augmenting it, by transforming themselves into a stronghold of political defiance of the Israeli government as well as by implementing internal reforms aimed at adapting to changing circumstances. In another study, which dealt with the roots of Hamas movement's myth, according to which "the entire land of Palestine is a holy waqf not to be renounced even by one inch," Reiter found that Hamas leaders were assisted by Jordanian Muslim Brothers' scholars who wrongly mixed and confused the early Islamic institute of fay' and the waqf institution.
Announcing B-Sides & Rarities in February 2011, CKY drummer Jess Margera claimed that the band selected many of the album's songs based on the requests of their fans, noting that "Shippensburg", the acoustic version of "To All of You" and the "heavy recording" of "Halfway House" had been in particularly high demand. The collection is made up of recordings from various periods in CKY's history, from as early as 1997 (for example, "Shippensburg") to as late as 2010 (new track "Afterworld"), as well as a number of previously unreleased live and alternate recordings, such as acoustic versions of An Answer Can Be Found and Volume 1 closing songs "Don't Hold Your Breath" and "To All of You". The album features two versions of "Halfway House" and the previously unreleased song "Deepest Depths", which was originally recorded as a demo by Foreign Objects in 1995, by Oil in 1996, and by CKY in 1997, and features band member Matty J. on drums. Guitarist and producer Chad I Ginsburg claimed upon release of the album that it was intended to act as a preview for a CKY box set, but as of June 2015 this has not yet been released.
