ANALYSIS OF MUMMIES' HAIR REVEAL ANCIENT EGYPTIANS USED "PRODUCT"
...researchers studied hair from 18 mummies (15 mummified in a desert cemetery called the Dakhleh Oasis and three from museum samples of unknown origin) who lived around 300 B.C. in ancient Egypt. By taking a close look at the hairs under a microscope, the researchers noticed that nine of these mummies had an unknown substance coating their hair.The researchers believe that this fat-based hair gel was used by the Egyptians to mold and hold the hair in position to enhance appearance, since some of the deceased that had been mummified naturally in the desert also had fats in their hair. When mummified using embalming chemicals, the undertakers seem to have taken special care to retain the deceased's hairdos, as they used different chemicals on different parts of the body.
I GUESS WE SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED THAT THE VAIN FOLKS WHO WANTED THEIR BODIES TO MUMMIFIED WERE ALSO VAIN ENOUGH TO USE "PRODUCT."
MAKES THEM A LOT LIKE US TODAY...
FALLOUT FROM "ARAB SPRING": GAZANS GET LIBYAN ARTILLERY
Palestinians in Gaza have acquired anti-aircraft and anti-tank rockets from Libya during its six-month civil war, enlarging but not significantly improving their arsenal, Israeli officials said on Monday.IT'S JUST THE START.
While the rebellion against Muammar Gaddafi has stirred concern abroad about the fate of Libya's aging chemical weapons stockpiles, Israel has no indication Hamas or other Palestinian factions have sought these, the officials said.
Instead, Israeli officials have detected an inflow of SA-7 anti-aircraft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), said one official, describing an overland supply route that opened up between eastern Libya -- after it fell to the rebels -- and the Gaza Strip via Egypt.
"We've been seeing more SA-7s and RPGs coming across," said the official. "It's not a major qualitative enhancement for them."
ONCE THE MUSLIM BROTHERHHOD CONTROLS LIBYA AND EGYPT AND SYRIA AND JORDAN ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE.
OH-OH: CO2 HAS GONE UP SINCE 2006, BUT SEA LEVEL HAS GONE DOWN!
SEA LEVEL DID NOT GO UP FROM 2006-2010, AND IN 2010, SEA LEVEL WENT DOWN.
DESPITE THE FACT THAT CO2 WENT UP EVERY ONE OF THOSE 5 YEARS.
IOW: AGW = TFBS.
TFBS = TOTAL EFFIN BULLSH*T.
THEN AGAIN, MAYBE THIS IS ONE PROMISE OBAMA ACTUALLY HAS DELIVERED ON!
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

INTERNET CACHE OF PERRY/AGA KHAN CURRICULUM WERE REMOVED FROM INTERNET SEARCH RESULTS
Jihad Watch reports that all traces of the Texas school curriculum involving Aga Khan were erased even from the online search engine caches. Atlas Shrugs has some screenshots of them here, however.
Even if Rick Perry isn't too concerning a politician on the subject, was that a good idea to have the info taken down? You can decide, but it may have been a foolish move on their part.

MIXED METAPHORS FROM CHINA: IS SINO-FOREST FRAUD THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG... OR THE PIN THAT WILL BURST THE CHINESE REAL ESTATE BUBBLE?
BOTH:
Toronto-listed Sino-Forest has seen its stock price plummet since June 2, when short-seller Carson Block and his firm, Muddy Waters, accused it of fraudulently exaggerating the size of its forestry assets.
Its market capitalization has fallen by roughly $4.1 billion since.
Sino-Forest has denied any wrongdoing and has appointed a committee of independent directors to investigate the matter. Chan could not be immediately reached for comment on Monday.
However, last Friday, the Ontario Securities Commission ordered a 15-day halt in trading of Sino-Forest shares and said it appeared that Chan and other executives had misrepresented revenues and kept bogus accounts, leading to Chan's voluntary resignation this past weekend.
The Sino-Forest saga is the most prominent of a series of recent accounting scandals to have buffeted investor confidence in Chinese companies listed in North America, triggering a flurry of regulatory probes both in Canada and the United States.
FAMED HEDGE FUND MANAGER JOHN PAULSON - WHO MADE BILLIONS BETTING THERE WOULD THE USA REAL ESTATE BUBBLE WOULD BURST WHEN IT DID - SOLD HIS SINO FOREST IN JUNE.
IT'S PROBABLY TIME FOR EVERYONE TO SELL ALL THEIR CHINESE STOCK HOLDINGS, AS THE WIDESPREAD FINANCIAL FRAUD AND OVER-DEVELOPMENT OF REAL ESTATE AT INFLATED PRICES CANNOT BE LONG SUSTAINED.
THE PROBLEM IS... WHERE DO YOU PUT IT?!?!?!
GOLD IS HIGH. THE DOLLAR AND EURO AND YEN LOOK WEAK. THE SWISS DON'T WANT THE FRANC TO APPRECIATE.

THOSE WHO ADVOCATE A LAND-FOR-PEACE DEAL BETWEEN ARABS AND ISRAELIS - INCLUDING ISRAELI DOVES - ARE LIKE PEOPLE WHO TELL WOMEN NOT TO RESIST A RAPIST
Don't scream. Don't scratch him. Don't resist. Don't carry mace or hot pepper spray and G-D forbid don't carry a gun!
Just close your eyes and wait for it to end. Then rinse off.
That's what liberals want women to do. They don't want you to resist the rapist.
That's what liberals want Israel to do.
They want Jerusalem raped.
They want Israel to stop resisting and just lay down and spread her legs and let the islamo-thugs rape her.
That's what the people who want "peace now" are really advocating. Meretz. Obama and the new Democrat Party.
They would rather see Israel raped than the rapist punished. They fear the rapist. Or secretly - even unconsciously root for the rapist.
They think that if they cooperate with the rapist that he'll just go away. It's cowardice.
They think they can rinse off. But they can't wash off the cowardice.
They are actually aiding and abetting the rapist.
They are not for peace; they are on the other side.

TERRORIST ATTACK IN TEL AVIV - BY GUESS WHO!?!?!?
A attacker wounded five Israeli policemen and civilians near a Tel Aviv nightclub early Monday, hitting several people with his car and then stabbing others, police said.Just before 2 a.m., the attacker hit two people with a car that was apparently stolen, she said.
THE SO-CALLED PALESTINIANS ARE BEASTLY ISLAMO-THUGS - MURDEROUS SCUM.
LET'S GIVE THEM A COUNTRY!
THINK I'M WRONG ABOUT THEM BEING ISLAMO-THUIGS!?
Investigators searched the rubble of the shattered headquarters building here in the Nigerian capital on Sunday as the number of deaths climbed to at least 21 and questions lingered about who bore responsibility for Friday’s suicide car bombing, even as men who said they were representatives of a radical Islamist sect claimed it.NOT A ZIONIST JEW WAS AMONG THE VICTIMS.
GLOBAL ISLAMO-TERROR IS NOT ABOUT THE JEWS OR ISRAEL OR BUSH.
IT'S THE ISLAM, STUPID!
UNREAL: BLOOMBERG DID MORE DAMAGE THAN IRENE!
THE TROPICAL STORM DIDN'T SO A LOT OF DAMAGE.
BUT MAYOR/NANNY MIKE BLOOMBERG DID - AND ALL IN ORDER TO COVER HIS ASS - ON ACCOUNT OF HIS DISASTROUSLY AWFUL PERFORMANCE IN THE BLIZZARD LAST WINTER.
ALL MASS TRANSIT IS DOWN IN NYC - AND ALL BECAUSE OF THE MAYOR.
NOT BECAUSE OF THE STORM.
WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP MAYOR.
SURE SURE SURE:
WE MIGHTA HAD SOME DELAYS AND DETOURS BECAUSE OF THE TROPICAL STORM, BUT BECAUSE OF BLOOMBERG 100FREAKIN% OF THE SYSTEM IS DOWN.
WHAT AN AS*HOLE.
BOTTOM-LINE:
LIBERAL POLITICIANS WITH POWER ARE SO DANGEROUS, THEY OUGHT TO COME WITH A WARNING LABEL!

IDIOT LEFTISTS THINK "SELF DEFENSE" MEANS "HOME DEFENSE" AND NOT ER... UM... SELF DEFENSE
LIBERALS ARE FREAKIN' MORONS:
The 2nd Amendment’s “right to keep and bear arms” is proving to be a right to keep a gun at home, but so far not a right to bear a loaded firearm in public.
The Supreme Court breathed new life into the amendment when it struck down strict handgun bans in Washington and Chicago and spoke of the “inherent right of self-defense.”
But to the dismay of gun rights advocates, judges in recent months have read those decisions narrowly and rejected claims from those who said they had a constitutional right to carry a loaded gun on their person or in their car. Instead, these judges from California to Maryland have said the “core right” to a gun is limited to the home.
... "The 2nd Amendment does not create a fundamental right to carry a concealed weapon in public," U.S. District Judge Morrison England ruled in May.
"That's the cutting-edge issue: whether the 2nd Amendment applies outside the home," said Chuck Michel, an NRA lawyer in Long Beach who has appealed the question to the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
State judges in Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts and New York have also ruled recently that there is no constitutional right to carry a loaded gun for self-defense. And in Virginia, the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the federal conviction of a man who fell asleep in his car near Washington's Reagan National Airport with a loaded gun.
IDIOTS.
HERE'S AN EXCERPT FROM THE 2ND AMENDMENT:
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms
OUR FOUNDERS KNEW WHAT "KEEP AND BEAR" MEANT.
"BEAR" MEANS TO HAVE ON YOUR PERSON.
LITERALLY "TO CARRY".
PERIOD.
(AND DON'T QUOTE ME THAT IN THE 19TH CENTURY THERE WERE PLENTY OF LAWS LIMITING THE RIGHT TO CARRY CONCEALED WEAPONS.
THERE WERE PLENTY OF BAD DECISIONS BY ALL THE COURTS BACK THEN - DRED SCOTT COMES TO MIND!).
LEFTISTS ARE MENDACIOUS IMMORAL SCUM.
YEAH, I SAID IT - SCUM.
THEY WANT TO ERADICATE THE SECOND AMENDMENT SO YOU CAN'T DEFEND YOURSELF FROM HARM.
THIS IS AS EVIL AS THE OTHER TOUCHSTONE OF THEIR IDEOLOGY - ABORTION RIGHTS.
THAT'S THE LEFTISTS IDEA THAT MOTHERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO MURDER THE BABIES-IN-THEIR-WOMB AT WILL.
LEFTISTS ARE MURDEROUS EVIL SCUM.
WHETHER IN CONGRESS OR ON THE COURTS OR IN THINK TANKS.
EVIL MURDEROUS SCUM.
43 YEARS AGO TODAY DR MLK JR SAID "I HAVE A DREAM"
GOD BLESS DR MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
DONALD'S POST HERE - WITH VIDEO OF THE GREAT SPEECH.
MY FAVORITE PART - AND WHAT CIVIL RIGHTS AND EQUALITY BEFORE THE LAW MEANS TO ME:
I WAS THERE!I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today!
THOSE WERE THE DAYS: WE HAD KING AND. NOW WE GOT SHARPTON AND OBAMA!
OY.
SIGH.

CHAVEZ IS NOW BALD
President Hugo Chavez will undergo a third round of chemotherapy for cancer at home in Venezuela beginning Sunday, he said, instead of traveling to Cuba where he had two previous rounds of treatment.CHAVEZ IS BECOMING AS UGLY AS HIS POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY:The 57-year-old gave few details during a TV appearance on Saturday, but the choice to have his next session at home could indicate he is more optimistic about the pace of his recovery ahead of a bid for a new six-year term at an election in 2012.
The socialist leader underwent surgery in Havana in June to remove a baseball-sized tumor, then returned to the communist-led island twice for chemotherapy as the guest of his friend and mentor, former Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
PEOPLE LIKE HIM CAN'T SUFFER ENOUGH.
HOW DO YOU SAY "MICHELLE OBAMA" IN YIDDISH?
2 VELOCIPEDISTS: BUSH VERSUS OBAMA
DAUNTLESS VERSUS DAUNTED:
THE WIMP IN CHIEF...
UNABLE TO FULFILL HIS CORE CAMPAIGN PROMISES - LIKE CLOSING GITMO - AND UNABLE CHOOSE THE RIGHT POLICIES ON THE FLY - AND UNABLE TO TAKE ON HIS BASE FOR THE GOODS OF THE COUNTRY...
A WIMP.
UNREADY - IF NOT UNFIT FOR THE OFFICE.

ASSAD ATTACKS MOSQUE
Syrian security forces have attacked protesters at a mosque in the capital, Damascus, activists say.
Security officials stormed the al-Rifai mosque in the Kafar Susseh district, the activists said, reportedly wounding the mosque's imam.
Unconfirmed reports say at least one person was killed in clashes with troops on Saturday.
NO OUTRAGE EXPRESSED FROM THOSE WHO REGULARLY CASTIGATE ISRAEL FOR MUCH LESS.
WHY THE DISPARITY? IT'S THE ANTISEMITISM, STUPID!
THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TREATS ISRAEL DIFFERENTLY FROM ALL OTHER NATIONS - AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY.
ISRAELIS ARE DERIDED FOR DOING WHAT EVERY OTHER NATIONS DOES, AND WHEN OTHER NATIONS DO WORSE THAN ANYTHING ISRAEL HAS EVER DONE, THEY GET AWAY SCOT FREE.
SIGH.
Muslim woman from Morrocco escapes arranged marriage and becomes martial arts fighter
Via Big Peace, here's a very inspiring story, about Iman Achhal, a woman from a Muslim family in Morrocco who was going to be sold into an arranged marriage - yes, for the money - and was lucky to flee to the USA where she first worked in a firefighting department, and then became a fitness and martial arts instructor. An ideal career for plenty of women, in fact.
Update: here's an article about her on the Wash. Post too.
