“Half The Crap YOU Say Is BS!” Roseanne Barr’s WILDEST Interview Ever!

 

Roseanne Barr’s comedy legacy cannot be summed up by simply acknowledging her Emmy award-winning sitcom ‘Roseanne’. She’s been active in the US comedy circuit since 1980; performing on 'The Tonight Show' and 'Late Night with David Letterman'. One way that she has distinguished herself however, is by always championing the American working class. In this way, Roseanne seems to have nailed her colours to the mast of Donald Trump, and says she’s now a populist, just like the Republican frontrunner.

 

Roseanne gets into it with Piers Morgan, who confronts her on her claims that Jill Biden was Joe Biden’s babysitter, that the US is fighting wars underground and that Israel is a "Nazi State" - but true to form, Roseanne’s interview proves that no one, not even Piers Morgan, can shut her up.

Retired army general's chilling warning over China's chokehold on US military: 'We need to prepare for war'

* Chinese manufacturers dominate supply chains for U.S. armaments industry

* Retired U.S. general John G. Ferrari said Beijing could cripple American military

* It comes amid growing fears of a conflict between the two countries over Taiwan

 

China's chokehold over U.S. military supplies leaves the West at the mercy of Beijing in the event of an all out war, a former army general has warned.

 

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, retired U.S. Army Major General John G. Ferrari said he had 'grave concerns' about the America's ongoing reliance on China to equip its military.

 

Chinese manufacturers are deeply embedded in U.S. defense systems, providing critical technology and raw materials used in everything from air-to-air missiles to fighter jets.

 

General Ferrari, who served as a deputy commander for NATO in Afghanistan, admitted that Beijing could cripple America's ability to arm itself by cutting off supply lines.

 

'If we were in a war with China and it stopped providing parts, we wouldn't be able to build the planes and weapons we needed,' he said.

 

His stark warning comes amid growing fears of a military confrontation with China over Taiwan.

 

The former general, now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, added: 'We need to start to prepare our supply chains now for a potential war.' …

New discoveries about 'sophisticated' Native American tribe that mysteriously vanished nearly 600 years ago unearthed in Illinois

 

A sprawling Native American city stretching six square-miles and home to roughly 20,000 people disappeared from the Mississippi river valley over 600 years ago.

 

And while the 'Cahokia' tribe mysteriously vanished, archaeologists have uncovered artifacts from the society that could provide clues about the group - their culture, language, and even their downfall are still lost to history.

 

The team university researchers recently discovered pottery, tools, like 'micro-drills,' and wall trenches at the Illinois site, dating back approximately 900 years.

 

Wood particles were also analyzed at the site as experts hypothesize the people cut down forests, which degraded the oil and may have caused flooding - an event that could have led to the tribe abandoning the city.

 

The excavation is being conducted by students from Saint Louis University (SLU) and neighboring colleges, who are working toward a career in archaeology.

 

Students dug out rectangular holes at the site, carefully shaving out dirt to uncover new discoveries.

 

Mary Vermilion, associate professor and archaeology at SLU, told 5OnYourSide: 'The structures that we're finding here and the pottery that we're finding here seem to date to the Sterling Phase of the Mississippian Period — which is approximately 1100 AD to 1200 AD — which is a critical point in the development of the chiefdom because it's like the apex.'

 

The finds join hundreds of other sophisticated tools previously uncovered at the site, including shells and beads that had been precision drilled for what scholars believe was a unit of currency.

 

Distinct from the Maya or Aztec people to the south, the Cahokia emerged in the Mississippi Valley over a thousand years ago, around 700 AD — in what is now the state of Illinois, across the river from present day St. Louis, Missouri.

 

At their apex, this indigenous civilization had constructed an estimated 120 earthen mounds: the largest city north of Mexico prior to the arrival of European settlers.

 

Many of the mounds might be better described as great pyramids, cornered square at the bottom and smoothed level at their highest points.

 

Anthropologists believe these mounds, including the lost city's largest, the 100-foot Monk Mound, that served as high ground to elevate, honor and protect homes of the Cahokia's civic leaders.

 

But by 1350 the society that build these impressive structures vanished without explanation, just about a century before Columbus sailed into the Americas.

 

In addition to searching for artifacts, the SLU researchers teamed up with the US National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency to map a key Cahokia site via a 'Light Detection and Ranging' (LiDAR) aerial drone - just like tech used in the spy agency's official work.

 

'The best part was applying our tradecraft in a way that is not the norm for us,' one agency analyst put it, 'in this case it was archaeology.'

 

'You can't really even walk through some of that part,' as the intelligence agency's drone program manager, Philip 'Casey' Shanks, noted.

 

'That's why the UAS is the right tool for the job,' said Shanks, who works our of the agency's Office of Geomatics.

 

The collaborative Cahokia Mounds aerial survey conducted flybys over more than 490 acres of the site, the largest single area that this air-based US spy agency has ever surveyed via drone with LiDAR technology.

 

LiDAR is a remote sensing tech that can measure the distances and contours of surfaces by beaming a laser at its target and analyzing the light reflected back.

 

The data collected was then used to build a photogrammetric 3D foundational mesh model of the ancient city's major landmark, the Monks Mound.

 

'There are a lot of questions about Cahokia's past that can be answered by remote sensing and LiDAR data,' said Justin Vilbig, a geospatial data scientist at the Taylor Geospatial Institute and the doctoral student at SLU leading the project.

 

'This gives the full landscape – where features were in context with each other – and what were the priorities of the Cahokians,' Vilbig said.

Top 10 books about adventures

 

  1. The Voyage of St Brendan the Navigator translated by Gerard McNamara

An Odyssey-like voyage, a mythical adventure through the western ocean – visiting such imaginary landfalls as the islands of fat sheep, of plenty, and the one hidden by a curtain of gold. A thin gloss of Christian detail covers a much older oral tale, told and retold over countless centuries, an elemental quest from somewhere deep in our storytelling past. It is allegory at its weirdest, with a dreamy, hypnotic appeal. Early translations from the Irish have been found in many languages and it was a hugely popular story in medieval Europe.

Ready or Not, Here We Come: off-course Irishmen in West Virginia?

 

There's an old legend that an Irish Monk named Brendan had the strange thought that he should sail West into the Atlantic to find "The Fortunate Isles" and bring the Gospel to whomever he encountered along the way. The idea has, of course, been regarded as nonsense for a very long period of time [and for some good reasons], but there are a few "anomalies" in West Virginia which make that old story seem a little less impossible. Since I travel right past one of them when I go back to the family center on vacations, it seemed like a worthwhile story to tell. So, here goes.

 

The first "item" in question is the Grave Creek Mound in the heart of Moundsville, West Virginia, about 20+ miles from my family home. There is only one mound structure larger in the USA [Kahokia, IL] and that one is a "stepped" object. The Moundsville mound is the largest conical mound in the country. It was therefore hard to miss, and we European guys "discovered" it as soon as we set foot in the Ohio River region. [An early drawing is at the left]. All the earliest explorers [Squier and Davis, Schoolcraft, et al] marveled at the thing and wondered who had built it and what it "meant". Such structures occurred all up and down the river and [thank GOD] were mapped rather well by these early archaeologists. Most are now destroyed. The Native Americans at the time couldn't help much with answers, as the mounds seemed just as big a mystery [or at least a lost story] to them. Thus began the mythology of an ancient "race" of Moundbuilders, who had a "high" society reminiscent of the great southern empires of the Aztec and Maya. From those early days, and even somewhat in the present, the archaeological community has struggled to explain the Mystery of the Mounds. Today, we know a great deal about this era, but certain things remain elusive.

 

Of course, back in the early 1800's anything could seem possible. The original "owner" of the Grave Creek property was Joseph Tomlinson. He refused to allow any desecration of the mound, which he regarded as having a culturally spiritual aspect about it. Joseph died in 1826 and his son, Jesse, felt the same way. By 1838, however, the social pressure to dig the great mound for its treasures was too much, and Jesse's nephew, Abelard, was permitted to open the structure. A report on this amateur excavation was published in 1839 by a Dr. Clemens, who, it appears got some details wrong, and in 1842 by Abelard Tomlinson. This interested the great early Native American student, Henry Schoolcraft, who visited the site and published a better [almost certainly more accurate] description of what went on and was found, in 1846. For those who would like to read Schoolcraft's very words, they are illustrated in two "pages" on the left. The mound turned out to be a double mound. one structure built on top another, and containing burials and objects such as shell beads and copper ringlets.

 

The objects found are of some consciousness-raising significance as they indicate that these people were engaging in a wide-ranging trade system, stretching from the ocean [perhaps even as far as Florida] and the upper Great Lakes' copper regions. In other words these were in no way "primitives". The skeletal structures of bodies found in such mounds seem "normal" as best as can be determined in their usually crumbly states. There is no indication, that I know, to point to them being from anything but what we would call "local" peoples. So where does the "anomaly" come in? The anomaly is the "Grave Creek Tablet". This is an oval piece of polished light-grey sandstone [1 1/2 x 2 inches] engraved with what seem, clearly, to be alphabetic characters. These characters were undecipherable, but their appearance suggested ancient European or Northern African languages. This, of course, set off a flurry of speculation and debunking of all manner of theories. (As an aside, Henry Schoolcraft was married to a half-Scotch-Irish, half Ojibwe lady named Jane Johnstone. She is recognized as the first Native American author, and one of her writings is said to have inspired Longfellow's work on Hiawatha. I've included her portrait and a book cover at the left as they may be of interest to some). …

But, back to the Grave Creek Tablet: This object was found with the debris of the excavation despite debunkers trying to say that it was not. Reading of the early descriptions of the dig clearly identify the Tablet as being found in situ. The reason for an almost ferocious desire on the part of some archaeologists to debunk the Tablet is that in those days some people were trying to defame the Native Americans as being only the degenerate remains of a former higher civilization formed by early European or Middle Eastern immigrants. One of the most inflammatory of these theories involved the Mormon claim that all this was the result of the work of the Lost Tribes of Israel. When one studies the various areas of academic research, one finds that every area has in-built prejudices against certain categories of ideas, and these, often unspoken, dogmas are taught into the minds of all their upcoming students until one has a full tribe of truth protectors of things that they don't even understand, nor want to consider. In this, the Tablet is a "victim" of the same sociological phenomenon that causes us troubles in UFOlogy, Parapsychology, Cryptozoology, and the rest of the things we find interesting. The Tablet was sent to the Smithsonian where copies were constructed, which, apparently still exist. Somewhere between Moundsville, the Smithsonian, and West Virginia University however, the original was "misplaced". [I suspect that it sits in the same warehouse as the Ark of the Covenant…just joking…don't want to start another internet conspiracy].

 

As time has passed and as we have slowly grown more "fluent" in ancient alphabets, the translation of the symbols on the Tablet have been attempted over again. Early "translations" have ranged from the preposterous to the meaningless—VERY unconvincing. But other tablets have been claimed and new understandings of old languages seem relevant. The most intriguing to me is the opinion of the Danish scholar, Rafn, who recognizes the alphabet as that of pre-Roman Phoenician [Punic] used in the Iberian peninsula in the near B.C. period. Does that even match the building of Grave Creek? Well, it might. Dating the Adena and Hopewell mound-building culture[s] of the Ohio valley still is mired in some controversies, but the papers indicate a range from the early BC to perhaps ~600AD. "Travelers" with such "100BC" alphabets could well fit. If so [what-the-heck, lets see where this idea might lead] what might the symbols say? Rafn's translation reads: "The mound raised-on-high for Tasach…This tile…his queen caused to be made". Well, maybe…it at least makes a kind of sense. The objections are the following: understanding of the alleged language isn't very settled yet. And there is no good evidence, in terms of other artifacts that an Iberian wayfarer passed that way. But there MAY be some good evidence that another group of wanderers blundered into West Virginia at a somewhat later date [early AD], and I'll tell that story in part two.

 

There are many aspects to this sort of story. It shows not only the possibility of difficult-to-prove [but "wonderful"] mysteries scattered about, but also the nearly impossible problem of getting established academic tribal elders to even consider them. Once again academia "voluntarily" places itself in a box and outside of The Big Study of all that there IS to potentially study. That is of course the biggest story here. Whether people from across the Atlantic "came occasionally by" Moundsville is fascinating but hardly diminishing of Native American culture. All of archaeology shows those cultures to range far and wide and evolve together from the empires of the South. By being willing to think and study the unthinkable, one may discover even more wonderful things. The map on the left is one amateur's attempt to see whether those old mound-makers may have been involved in astronomy and calendar-making. He feels that he has found a Summer Solstice sighting line. This is the same sort of thing that the early Europeans were doing at Stonehenge, Newgrange, and Castlerigg. As I look at the map, I see a very suspicious four-structure straight sighting line [marked in blue]-what was IT for? Maybe one of YOU radicals will make the discovery. But WATCH ITyou won't be popular at your local college. Tomorrow I'll try tohttps://thebiggeststudy.blogspot.com/2009/12/ready-or-not-here-we-come-off-course.html "finish" this tale with the saga of the Wyoming County Ogham.
