Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance Into Jerusalem To The Resurrection [Hardcover]

For Christians, Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, and who rose from the dead in triumph over sin and death. For non-Christians, he is almost anything else-myth, a political revolutionary, a prophet whose teaching was misunderstood or distorted by his followers.
Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God, and no myth, revolutionary, or misunderstood prophet, insists Benedict XVI. He thinks that the best of historical scholarship, while it can't "prove" Jesus is the Son of God, certainly doesn't disprove it. Indeed, Benedict maintains that the evidence, fairly considered, brings us face-to-face with the challenge of Jesus-a real man who taught and acted in ways that were tantamount to claims of divine authority, claims not easily dismissed as lunacy or deception.

Benedict XVI presents this challenge in his new book, Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance into Jerusalem to the Resurrection, the sequel volume to Jesus of Nazareth: From the Baptism in the Jordan to the Transfiguration.

Why was Jesus rejected by the religious leaders of his day? Who was responsible for his death? Did he establish a Church to carry on his work? How did Jesus view his suffering and death? How should we? And, most importantly, did Jesus really rise from the dead and what does his resurrection mean? The story of Jesus raises these and other crucial questions.
Benedict brings to his study the vast learning of a brilliant scholar, the passionate searching of a great mind, and the deep compassion of a pastor's heart. In the end, he dares readers to grapple with the meaning of Jesus' life, teaching, death, and resurrection. Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance into Jerusalem to the Resurrection challenges both believers and unbelievers to decide who Jesus of Nazareth is and what he means for them.

Lokasi gempa Jepang (11/3/2011) berkekuatan 8,9 sr.

Gempa berkekuatan 8,8 skala Richter yang menggoyang Jepang hari ini memicu tsunami di beberapa kota di Jepang. Topik tsunami tersebut menjadi trending topic di Twitter.

Topik #prayforjapan, #tsunami, Sendai Airport, NHK World, Watching CNN, Tokyo Disneyland, dan Sendai Airport menjadi terhangat di situs microblogging Twitter. Semua topik tersebut terkait dengan gempa dan tsunami di Jepang.

Jepang dilanda gempa bumi berkekuatan 8,8 SR di lepas pantai timur laut Jumat, yang memicu tsunami setinggi 4 meter. Gelombang tsunami itu menghanyutkan mobil dan merobek bangunan di sepanjang pantai di dekat pusat gempa.

Gempa yang melanda pukul 02:46 itu diikuti oleh serangkaian gempa susulan, termasuk satu gempa 7.4 SR sekitar 30 menit kemudian. US Geological Survey memperbarui kekuatan gempa pertama yang berkekuatan 8,8 SR.

The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement [Hardcover]

New York Times columnist Brooks (Bobos in Paradise) raids Malcolm Gladwell’s pop psychology turf in a wobbly treatise on brain science, human nature, and public policy. Essentially a satirical novel interleaved with disquisitions on mirror neurons and behavioral economics, the narrative chronicles the life cycle of a fictional couple—Harold, a historian working at a think tank, and Erica, a Chinese-Chicana cable-TV executive—as a case study of the nonrational roots of social behaviors, from mating and shopping to voting.

Their story lets Brooks mock the affluent and trendy while advancing soft neoconservative themes: that genetically ingrained emotions and biases trump reason; that social problems require cultural remedies (charter schools, not welfare payments); that the class divide is about intelligence, deportment, and taste, not money or power. Brooks is an engaging guide to the “cognitive revolution” in psychology, but what he shows us amounts mainly to restating platitudes. (Women like men with money, we learn, while men like women with breasts.) His attempt to inflate recent research on neural mechanisms into a grand worldview yields little except buzz concepts—”society is a layering of networks”—no more persuasive than the rationalist dogmas he derides.
