World War III begins late in the 20th century. It is fought between the two superpowers, Wes-Dem and Pac-Peop. The fighting is extensive and severe, most of it performed by "leadies", robots built to withstand the most extreme circumstances. The Earth becomes a battlefield. Unable to exist in the atmosphere created by robot war, vast "ant tanks" are constructed underground to save the diminishing human population.

Eight years ago a nuclear war began between the United States and the Soviet Union. American survivors evacuated to gigantic bunkers miles under ground. Sophisticated, radioactivity-immune robots called "leadys" continue fighting the war on the devastated surface that is too dangerous for humans. The Soviets have similarly evacuated underground, and each side builds powerful weapons and vehicles for the remote-controlled war they only see from film that the robots deliver.

The ceremony of homage was used in many regions of Europe to symbolically bind two men together. The vassal to-be would go down on their knee and place their palms together as if praying. The lord to-be would place his hands over the hands of the vassal, while the vassal made a short declaration of belonging to the lord. The new chief and subordinate would sometimes then kiss each other on the mouth (the osculum) to symbolize their friendship. In this way one of the fundamental bonds of feudal society was sealed.

Canadian billionaire, 81, accused of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls in prostitution ring

A Canadian billionaire is facing allegations he sexually abused more than five dozen women when they were children โ€” with the victims alleging they were recruited and paid to participate in his chilling sex ring.

Robert Miller, the founder of Future Electronics, is accused of repeatedly giving underage girls money and gifts in exchange for sex between 1994 and 2016, Canadian outlets reported, citing that the alleged abuse happened in hotels throughout Montreal.

Miller was ordered on Friday to fork over two of his million-dollar Montreal homes as part of a lawsuit filed by four of his accusers, who feared the 81-year-old would try to hide his assets as his legal woes worsened.

The four victims, who are suing for millions, challenged that the two homes โ€” worth more than $2 million each โ€” were listed under the names of lawyers for several years, according to The Canadian Press.

โ€œIt is troubling to note that Miller, a billionaire, has no bank account in his name,โ€ Justice Serge Gaudet said in Quebec Superior Court, noting a โ€œpersistentโ€ pattern of listing his fortune and valuables under other peopleโ€™s names, the outlet reported.

The women accused the alleged predator of recruiting them as high school students to have sex in exchange for money, describing his prostitution scheme as a โ€œplanned system of sexual exploitationโ€ of girls and teens, according to court documents, obtained by Canadian outlets.

One victim alleged she had sex with Miller more than 30 times over two years starting in 1999 when she was 14 years old, according to court documents.

On one occasion, she was given $1,000 to have sex with Miller โ€” who allegedly refused to wear a condom due to a latex allergy โ€” at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel after being pampered with steak and champagne by one of his employees.

The victim said the alleged sexual abuse left her suicidal as she struggled with alcohol and drugs.

Miller, who has denied the allegations, is also facing a separate proposed lawsuit by more than 50 women who reported that he gave them money and gifts in exchange for sex between 1996 and 2006, CBC reported.

He was also arrested in May on sexual abuse and exploitation charges involving 10 victims, some of whom were minors at the time of the alleged offenses, which occurred between 1994 and 2016.

Miller stepped down from his tech company following a Radio-Canada Enquรชte report that exposed him for paying minors between the ages of 14 and 17 cash and gifts in exchange for sex between 1994 and 2006, according to CBC.

The report resulted in dozens of women coming forward to report the abuse they sustained as minors.

Lawyers for the accused creep, who is bedridden with Parkinsonโ€™s disease, have attempted to delay the criminal case due to his health, according to Canadian outlets.

His cases will continue in December.

Newly discovered ancient amulet references banned tale of King Solomon fighting demons

A fifth century amulet depicting the demon-fighting King Solomon has been found by archaeologists in Turkey, referencing a book banned from the Bible for including themes of dark magic.

The amulet was found among the ruins of a military structure in an ancient quarter of the Turkish city of Paphlagonia by archaeologists from Karabuk University, according to Live Science.

Ancient demon slayer amulet corroborates missing Bible chapter

<Ancient demon slayer amulet corroborates missing Bible chapter

A rare fifth-century amulet depicting a Biblical demon slayer may corroborate missing scripture that claimed King Solomon had power over evil.

The 1,600-year-old bronze pendant, found in Turkey, featured imagery of Solomon defeating the devil with the ancient Greek inscription, 'Our Lord defeated the devil.'

Solomon, the son of King David, was the focus of a chapter written between the 1st and 5th centuries AD, but it was not accepted into the canonical Bible due to its emphasis on magic and demonology.

Titled 'Testament of Solomon,' the book begins with the Archangel Michael gifting Solomon a magical ring to summon, interrogate and control demons.

Now, archaeologists working at the ancient city of Hadrianopolis have uncovered the amulet among the ruins of a military structure that suggested a soldier wore it knowing Solomon could cast away the powers of evil.

There were also names of four holy angels, Azrail, Gabriel, Michael and Israfil, on the back of the amulet, which supported the notion the amulet was used as a symbol of protection.

Solomon is featured in three books of the Bible, with 1 Kings 3:12 saying that God gifted him with 'a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be.'

The Bible also described how he generated extreme wealth while king., accumulating at least 25 tons of gold annually.

In 2 Chronicles 1:11, the scripture describes: 'But since you have asked for wisdom and knowledge to lead my people, over whom I have made you king, I will give you wisdom and knowledge.

'I will also give you more wealth, riches, and honor than any king who has lived before you or any who will live after you.'

But the Testament of Solomon tells a different side of the wealthy king, one who battled demons - and the amulet suggested that ancient people believed the stories to be true.

Associate Professor Dr. Ersin ร‡elikbaลŸ, Department of Archaeology, Faculty of Letters, Karabรผk University, said: 'No similar examples have been found in this geography before.

'This pendant, used as an amulet, draws attention with the inscriptions on both sides and the depiction on it.

'The amulet depicts Prophet Solomon on a horse, holding a spear, defeating the devil.

'Prophet Solomon is an important figure in all three holy religions. While he is mentioned as a ruler in the Torah and the Holy Bible, he is also accepted as a prophet in Islam.'

King Solomon is known as Hz. Sรผleyman in Islam, who was also known as the commander of armies.

'We understand that he was also thought of as a protective figure for the cavalrymen of the Roman and Byzantine periods in Hadrianopolis,' Dr ร‡elikbaลŸ said.

The angels mentioned on the back of the pendent are also part of different religions.

Azrail is the angel of death in Islam and is responsible for transporting the souls of the deceased to the afterlife.

And Israfil, also known in the religion, was an archangel who would blow a trumpet to signal the Day of Resurrection.

Gabriel and Michael are known in the Christian faith, with the former being a messenger for God and the latter known as a spiritual warrior in the battle of good versus evil.

However, Dr ร‡elikbaลŸ explained that he and his team believed the pendant was a Christian artifact.

The ancient city of Hadrianopolis was first known as Uskudama by the tribal people called Thracians who inhabited the region from the 1st century BC to the 8th century AD.

However, the city was later rebuilt by the Roman emperor Hadrian around 124 AD and today is called Edirne.

Dr ร‡elikbaลŸ and his team have been working at the site since 2003, finding ancient Roman relics and structures, including two baths, two churches, a theatre, rock tombs, a monumental niche, a villa and a square, fortified building.

In 2021, they discovered an iron face mask in the building that would have been worn by an accomplished member of the Roman cavalry some 1,800 years ago.

'Rome planned to make its defense at the far end [of its empire] by building bases against all kinds of dangers that may come from the Black Sea Region to its territory,' Dr ร‡elikbaลŸ explained.

'We think that Hadrianopolis is one of these defensive military cities.

'The [mask] belongs to the imperial period. It is very likely โ€” when we look at similar examples and [the stratigraphic location of the find] โ€” from the 3rd century AD.'
