8,000-year-old Yarmukian 'Mother Goddess' figurine uncovered in Jordan valley
The broken figurine was covered by a bracelet with a red bottom, the color which represented fertility. A schematic stone with etched eyes and mouth was also uncovered. The excavation is being carried out in conjunction with the French Center for Research in Jerusalem under the co-direction of Dr. Julien Vieugue. "This woman ceramic figurine is a hallmark of Yarmukian culture," Eirikh-Rose said. "This is one of the largest examples of the figurine found. It is of a large, seated woman with big hips, a unique pointed hat and what is known as 'coffee-bean' eyes and a big nose. One hand is positioned on her hip and the other one under her breast." Symbolism Though dubbed "coffee-bean" eyes, the traditional eyes of the figurine more likely represented kernels possibly of wheat, or more likely barley, she said.

Tehran is technically capable of making a nuclear bomb but has yet to decide whether to build it, a senior adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei told Al Jazeera's Arabic service on Sunday. Tehran is technically capable of making a nuclear bomb but has yet to decide whether to build one, a senior adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei told Al Jazeera's Arabic service on Sunday. "In a few days we were able to enrich uranium up to 60% and we can easily produce 90% enriched uranium ... Iran has the technical means to produce a nuclear bomb but there has been no decision by Iran to build one," Kamal Kharrazi said.

BEST OF THE WEB: Cosmic Information Transducers: On the meaning of life in its broadest sense
I recently started hearing about the work of the Russian polymath Vladimir Vernadsky. The guy was a brilliant scientist - he was the founder and first president of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, so not exactly a fringe thinker in his time. Vernadsky took Pierre Teilhard de Chardin's concept of the noosphere and grounded it in his own deep appreciation of biological, geological, and chemical processes - which was a profound understanding indeed as he pretty much invented the field of biogeochemistry. His views seem to have gone far beyond the Gaia hypothesis, probably ultimately inspired by his writing, that was popularized well beyond his death, which merely posits that the biosphere achieves a high-level homeostatic equilibrium. Full disclosure: I haven't actually read Vernadsky, so everything that follows is just me riffing on what I've gathered from a few podcasts and blogs. I first heard of the man's work from that brilliant lunatic Clif High (see for instance here), the...

Finland warns of daily 2-hour-long blackouts this winter
As Europe grapples with an energy crisis, countries are looking for alternatives to Russian fossil fuels. Europe fears a historically difficult winter as the war in Ukraine disrupts its energy supply. With the continent ridding itself of Russian fossil fuels, it has proven difficult to find alternatives, meaning energy regulation and restrictions could be a possible solution. As Europe prepares for the cold with energy regulation, Finland may have similar limits. Comment: 'Energy regulation' is the new term for rolling blackouts, apparently.

Incarcerated transgender woman Demi Minor impregnates two inmates at NJ prison
A transgender woman behind bars at a New Jersey women's prison impregnated two fellow inmates, prompting officials to move her to a different facility, a report revealed Saturday. Demi Minor, 27, was moved last month from the Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women to the Garden State Youth Correctional Facility — a prison for young adults in Burlington County, a New Jersey Department of Corrections spokesman told NJ.com. Minor, who is serving a 30-year sentence for manslaughter, is in a vulnerable unit in the new facility where she is the only woman, the spokesman said. Minor wrote in a blog post on the website Justice 4 Demi on July 15 that she was placed on suicide watch at the new facility "due to the fact that I had hung myself in the van." She claimed guards denied her request to be strip-searched by a female DOC officer. "[NJDOC] have violated my right to be safe and free from sexual harassment, by putting me in one of the most violent youth Correctional facilities,"...

Hunter Biden laptop shows dozens of meetings with dad, business partners
Hunter Biden met with his father at least 30 times at the White House or the vice president's residence, often just days after he returned home from overseas business jaunts. The breakfasts, lunches and other gabfests between 2008 and 2016 raise questions about whether Hunter was relaying messages to his father on behalf of foreign clients, and cast new doubt on the president's repeated denials that he had any role in his son's shady overseas business dealings. The meetings were found in a review of the personal calendar on Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop.

Top dance school scraps BALLET auditions branding it an 'elitist white art form', plans to 'decolonise' curriculum and make it gender neutral
A top British dance school has dropped ballet from its auditions after branding it an 'elitist art form', built around 'white European ideas and body shapes'. The Northern School of Contemporary Dance (NSCD) reviewed the dance as part of a wider plan to 'decolonise the curriculum', and consider the impact of race and gender on dance. The Leeds-based school will no longer require ballet as part of its auditions, due to the cost of learning the dance style, its idealisation of particular body shapes and gender-divided roles, staff have said.

Uvalde officials presented Texas DPS with document days after school shooting - Said police had 'zero hesitation' and 'moved directly toward gunfire', saving over 500 lives
Uvalde officials presented the Texas Department of Public Safety with a document labeled "narrative" during a closed-door meeting days after the May 24 shooting. Comment: Why so secretive? According to the The New York Times, the document put together a timeline of events from interviews with police officers who responded to the May 24 Robb Elementary shooting, which resulted in the deaths of 19 fourth-graders and 2 teachers. "There was zero hesitation on any of these officers' part, they moved directly toward the gunfire," the document said, according to the Times.

Propaganda alert: Media says Brit soldier facing execution by Putin 'forced' to sing the Russian national anthem
A Russian propaganda broadcast shows former care worker from Nottinghamshire Aiden Aslin being forced to sing Russia's national anthem as a burly jailer stands menacingly close to him. British soldier Aiden Aslin has been forced to sign the Russian national anthem in an apparent propaganda video. The Brit, who was captured while fighting while fighting against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, has been shown seemingly being forced to sing the tune in another flagrant breach of the Geneva Conventions' rules on treatment of prisoners of war. In the disturbing clip which the Daily Star has chosen not to show, Aiden appears to be thin and pale but otherwise uninjured - despite the presence of a vicious-looking club on the table in front of him. Comment: This is hilarious! They've 'chosen not to show' the full clip because it exposes their reporting as being complete propaganda!

What is the "Council For Inclusive Capitalism?" It's the New World Order
The idea that there is an agenda for global government among the financial and political elites of the world has long been called a "conspiracy theory" within the mainstream and the establishment media. And sadly, even when you can convince people to look at and accept the evidence that banking institutions and certain politicians work together for their own purposes, many folks will STILL not entertain the notion that the ultimate goal of these power mongers is one-world empire. They just can't wrap their heads around such a thing. People will say that the establishment is driven by greed alone and that their associations are fragile and based only on individual self interest. They will say that crisis events and shifts in social and political trends are random, not the product of deliberate engineering. They will say that elitists will never be able to work together because they are too narcissistic, etc. All of these arguments are a coping mechanism for the public to deal with...
