The Economist For The iPad

I remember only a few years ago when I used to wait almost 4 days to get my copy. How times change. This excellent adaptation (iTunes) is exactly how I think magazines should evolve beyond dead trees (paper to those of you still unfamiliar with eco-jargon).

A More Nuanced View Of Lebanon’s Shiaas

Hanin Ghaddar (a Shiaa herself) does a great job of breaking the stereotypes surrounding Lebanon’s Shiaas. She explains in great detail that even those who wholeheartedly support Hezbollah are uneasy about the way things are turning today. A must read especially for people like me who come from the north and don’t get to regularly interact with that community.
