Origin Of The 30,000-Year-Old Venus Of Willendorf SolvedOne of the most important examples of early art in Europe, a 11 cm high figurine colloquially dubbed a 'Venus' and found in Willendorf, Austria, is made of a rock called "oolite" which is not found in or around Willendorf. New high-resolution tomographic images lead the authors to concluse the material from which the Venus was carved likely comes from northern Italy or possible eastern Ukraine, which sheds new light on the mobility of the first modern humans south and north of the Alps. read more read more

Texas ranchers want Biden to control border, not pay for damagesWashington Examiner: Texas ranchers are rejecting an offer from the federal government to cover property damages resulting from illegal immigration and drug smuggling, fearing the aid will come with strings attached and won't help with the underlying problems at the border.

Russia: from sanctions to slump?The economic war between the US-led NATO group and Russia is hotting up alongside the real war in Ukraine itself. In response to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, the US and Europe have upped the ante in imposing economic sanctions. The first of these was the suspension of any dealings with several leading Russian banks, including the two largest, Sberbank and VTB. However, it was significant that the sanctions excluded Gazprombank, the major Russian lender to energy export companies. Clearly, the West does not want to disrupt oil and gas exports through sanctions, when Germany ... read more

Trump well received at CPACRoger L. Simon: ... Trump has received a fair amount of criticism from media on the right, from Byron York and even occasionally from Laura Ingraham, for harping on the 2020 election.

He was aided by the repeated plays on the CPAC screens of the trailer for Dinesh D’Souza’s forthcoming documentary “2000 Mules,” which evidently includes significant actual footage of extraordinary amounts of late-night ballot box stuffing.
