Naomi (actress)

Naomi Russell (born September 25, 1983) is an American pornographic actress.

Personal life and career

Naomi was born in Los Angeles, California. She has stated that she is Jewish and her father was a rabbi. Before entering the porn industry, Naomi had never had sex with a woman. Over the course of her career, Naomi has performed in more than 250 films, many featuring these practices. In 2007, she won the Adult Video News (AVN) Best New Starlet of the Year award. She was not present to accept the award.

Later, in an interview with AVN, she indicated that she had other things to do on the day the award was presented and professed not to see what the big deal was. It was in this same interview that she announced that, prior to her career in pornography, she had never engaged in anal sex. Her first anal scene was in Naomi: There's Only One. She credited the industry with helping her discover that it was a sexual activity she enjoyed. She offered a similar account about how becoming a pornographic actress introduced her to girl/girl scenes and the pleasure they brought her. She also expressed resentment about critics who focused on her weight fluctuations after entering porn and explained that, pre-porn, she was an athletic and lean person by nature.

Naomi (album)

Naomi is The Cave Singers' fourth album, released March 5, 2013 on Jagjaguwar.

Track listing

Press Release

There's no tomorrow / Set a place at the table If every story is a story about love, what of suffering, surrender, and redemption? Life says they're in there too. Along with traffic jams and dishes, jobs and sunsets and spilling all the red wine on the floor. All of it.

Naomi, the fourth record from Northwestern mystics The Cave Singers, is a totem to these things: the every-, any-, all- ways of life. Written over the span of ten months and recorded in one, it bears a new and more expansive production style that captures the live performance energy the band has developed over the past five years. The disc was engineered and produced at Avast Studios in Seattle by Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Built To Spill, Shins, Modest Mouse). Each song on the album functions like a chapter in a bigger story, addressing themes of the past, exhuming the memories under moonlight. There are songs of addiction, car ownership, fireworks, tree houses, moving to New Mexico, and God, each shifting in all the ways that make life difficult and miraculous, astounding and beautiful. Get quiet for a while / Happy for each single breath

Emir

Emir (/əˈmɪər, eɪˈmɪər, ˈeɪmɪər/; Arabic: أمير‎ ʾAmīr [ʔæˈmiːr]), sometimes transliterated (olowan, Datu in Meranau common version) Amir, Amier or Ameer, is an aristocratic or noble title of high office used in a variety of places in the Arab countries and Afghanistan. It means commander, general, or prince. The feminine form is Emira (أميرة ʾAmīrah). When translated as prince, the word "emirate" is analogous to a sovereign principality.

Origins

Amir, meaning "Lord" or "commander-in-chief", is derived from the Arabic root a-m-r, "command". Originally simply meaning commander-in-chief or leader, usually in reference to a group of people, it came to be used as a title for governors or rulers, usually in smaller states, and in modern Arabic is analogous to the English word "prince". The word entered English in 1593, from the French émir. It was one of the titles or names of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.

Princely, ministerial and noble titles

Amir (name)

Amir (also spelled Ameer or Emir, Arabic: أمير‎, Turkish: Emir, Persian: امير‎‎, Hebrew: אמיר‎, pronounced [aːmˈiːr]) is a masculine name with two meanings, one is Arabic/Hebraic origin derived from the three letters AMR which means 'to give orders' or a "Prince". The title Emir in Arabic, which is essentially the same word as Amir, therefore means: "one who gives orders". It also means summit of a tree in Hebrew; and other one in Persian is pronounced in the same way but it has a different meaning, it consists of two parts; "A" which means "Un" and "mir" which is the root of the verb "Mordan مُرَدن" ( to die ), so Amir in Persian means the one who [his spirit and his memory] will never die.
