The Treasury of Atreus, also known as the Tomb of Agamemnon, is one of the most extraordinary surviving monuments of the Mycenaean world. Built around 1300–1250 BCE, this massive “beehive” or tholos tomb features a corbelled dome that remained the largest of its kind until the Roman era. Hidden beneath an earthen mound outside the citadel of Mycenae, the structure reflects both the engineering sophistication and immense power of Late Bronze Age Greece.

💢 Starmer has informed his close associates of his intention to resign, — Daily Mail, citing sources.

"He understands that the current chaos is unsustainable. He just wants to do it with dignity and in the way he deems appropriate. He will set a schedule," the newspaper quoted a source as saying.

According to another source, Starmer does not want to take risks, as a possible defeat in the by-elections would mean too much humiliation.

"That being said, let us pause for a moment on J. Leveugle's thesis, if only so as not to go further in reading his book. He therefore wants to prove that Einstein's article is a "compilation" (p. 152) of that of Poincaré. He does not beat around the bush: he invents a "German machination" (pp. 156, 266), a plot (sic) set up by the elite of Göttingen's theoretical physics, where David Hilbert in the lead, Hermann Minkowski, Max von Laue, Max Planck, would be involved. Hilbert would be exasperated, humiliated (p. 150) by Poincaré, in short, jealous. Of course, German science must outsmart French science."

The Stupidity of Greed

According to the court documents, in approximately 2014, David TR wanted to give his sister-in-law, who was working for the company, a big raise. But he felt that his wife and son who sat on the board, wouldn’t approve it. So, David Tran came up with an idea that he was going to make a […]

"Some 20 company bosses had joined Trump on the trip. But there seem to have been no plans or tasks for any of them. No deals were made, no contracts were signed.

"Trump offered to lift the U.S. blockade on the sales of some older NVIDIA AI chips to China. China declined as it now makes its own chips with similar characteristics.

"The Chinese side spoke of a “new positioning” and a “constructive strategic stability” as major outcomes of the talks.

"The “new positioning” is seeing the U.S. and China as equals with China being objectively in a better position."

"The American staff took everything that the Chinese officials handed out —accreditations, disposable phones of White House staff, badges for the delegation — collected it all before we boarded the AF1 plane and threw it into the trash can at the foot of the ramp. Nothing from China is not allowed on board the aircraft."

"The Thing, also known as the Great Seal bug, was one of the first covert listening devices (or "bugs") to use passive techniques to transmit an audio signal. It was concealed inside a gift given by the Soviet Union to W. Averell Harriman, the United States Ambassador to the Soviet Union, on August 4, 1945. Because it was passive, needing electromagnetic energy from an outside source to become energized and active, it is considered a predecessor of radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology.[1][2]

"The Thing consisted of a tiny capacitive membrane connected to a small quarter-wavelength antenna; it had no power supply or active electronic components. The device, a passive cavity resonator, became active only when a radio signal of the correct frequency was sent to the device from an external transmitter. This is referred to in National Security Agency (NSA) parlance as "illuminating" a passive device. Sound waves (from voices inside the ambassador's office) passed through the thin wood case, striking the membrane and causing it to vibrate. The movement of the membrane varied the capacitance "seen" by the antenna, which in turn modulated the radio waves that struck and were re-transmitted by The Thing. A receiver demodulated the signal so that sound picked up by the microphone could be heard, just as an ordinary radio receiver demodulates radio signals and outputs sound.

"Its design made the listening device very difficult to detect, because it was very small, had no power supply or active electronic components, and did not radiate any signal unless it was actively being irradiated remotely. These same design features, along with the overall simplicity of the device, made it very reliable and gave it a potentially unlimited operational life."

"The trajectory of popular media since the 1990s has greatly favored the portrayal of the weak, scorned, and ultimately disposable fathers of Mrs. Doubtfire than the flawed, but daring warrior shepherds of Hook, and we are worse off because of it. Where Mrs. Doubtfire heralded the temporary triumph of the longhouse, Hook is an intriguing sign post on an alternate path to a world that might have been. And so I heartily recommend watching it with your kids for Father’s Day."
