“I don’t know what’s in Rush Limbaugh’s heart so I’m not going to comment on the sincerity of his apology. What I can comment on is the fact that all decent folks can agree that the remarks that were made don’t have any place in the public discourse. And, you know, the reason I called Ms. Fluke is because I thought about Malia and Sasha. And one of the things I want them to do as they get older is to engage in issues they care about - even ones I may not agree with them on. I want them to be able to speak their mind in a civil and thoughtful way. And I don’t want them attacked or called horrible names because they’re being good citizens. And I wanted Sandra to know that I thought her parents should be proud of her.”

- President Obama, commenting on the Rush Limbaugh controversy in today’s press conference. (via dcdecoder)

“The Swastika Stone is a stone adorned with a Swastika located on the Woodhouse Crag, on the Northern edge of Ilkley Moor in West Yorkshire. The design has a double outline with five curved arms enclosing several so-called ‘cup’ marks, the like of which can be found on other stones nearby.

The design is unique in the British Isles, so its close similarity to Camunian rose designs in Italy have led some to theorize that the two are connected. In fact, the troops stationed in Ilkley during Roman occupation were recruited from the Celtic Lingones. This tribe was native to Gaul, but in around 400 BCE, some migrated across the Alps to the Adriatic coast. Some believe the Ilkley Lingones were recruited from here rather than from Gaul. It is possible that the Italian Lingones passed through the Valcamonica region at some point, took on the swastika designs they found as part of their tribal symbolism, and carved it on the nearby moor when stationed in Ilkley.”

The Fuller Brooch is a piece of late 9th century Anglo-Saxon art of unknown provenance.

“It is a large disc made of hammered sheet silver inlaid with black niello and with a diameter of 11.4 cm. Its centre roundel is decorated with personifications of the five senses. In the centre is Sight with large staring oval eyes, surrounded by the other four senses, each in his own compartment. Taste has a hand in his mouth. Smell’s hands are behind his back, and he stands between two tall plants. Touch rubs his hands together. Hearing holds his hand to his ear. This is the earliest known representation of the five senses. The outer border consists of 16 small medallions decorated with human, bird, animal and plant motifs”

Syria’s ancient desert city besieged: residents

“The Syrian army has been laying siege to the ancient city of Palmyra, a world heritage site, since early February and shooting at anything that moves from a historic citadel, residents say.

“Palmyra is surrounded by the army from all fronts: the Arab citadel, the olive and palm tree groves, the desert, the city,” one resident told AFP by telephone, adding that the operation began on February 4.

Security forces have set up camp in the citadel which overlooks the Roman ruins and the city of some 60,000 people, said the resident who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisals.

“Machinegun fire rains down from the citadel at anything that moves in the ruins because they think it is rebels,” he added.

Palmyra’s pristine Roman ruins set off by dramatic desert sunrises and sunsets have earned it the status of a UNESCO protected world heritage site.

It was a key tourist attraction in Syria before unrest against the regime of President Bashar al-Assad erupted 11 months ago. Human rights groups say more than 6,000 people have been killed in the country since mid-March last year.”

New requirement before sharing the KONY 2012 video.

The other day I saw a poster with the flag of South Africa on it, one with the flag of Zimbabwe, and another with the flag of Mali. Uganda is none of those… In fact, it borders none of those. In fact, it’s not even in the same region as those.

MOD NOTE:

I don’t want this to come across as mean, at all, but If you educate yourself! Know where your care goes!

Ancient Artifacts Rewrite Western Colorado History

Ancient Artifacts Rewrite Western Colorado History:

archaeologicalnews:

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — New discoveries are changing what we know about Western Colorado’s history.

The Western Investigations Team, also known as W.I.T., recently discovered artifacts dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries.

Researchers say the findings prove the Spanish were present inhe Grand Valley nearly 150-years before we previously believed.

Students and staff at Colorado Mesa University partnered with the Museum of Western Colorado to create WIT, which has been working at the site since 2009.

Director David Bailey says discoveries like this always lead to more questions.

“I think it might rewrite our history books a little bit and I think it’s really interesting that they would be this far north. But they were in pursuit of silver and gold mines and always looking for treasure and riches just beyond the ridge, so it’s not surprising that they’re here but it’s interesting that we found that they were here,” says Bailey.

If you’d like to check out the artifacts for yourself, they’ll be on display at the Museum of the West in Downtown Grand Junction.

Missing Link To Bloodthirsty Ancient Celtic Warrior God Uncovered:

sassanach-sima:

A new discovery that could change the way we think about Roman Britain has provided archaeologists with the missing link to a bloodthirsty ancient Celtic Warrior god.

For years, metal detectorists in and around Lincolnshire have been digging up Roman-era finger rings with the mysterious letters TOT inscribed on them.

The significance of the three letters had been long debated.
