35 Ancient Pyramids Discovered in Sudan Necropolis:
"At least 35 small pyramids, along with graves, have been discovered clustered closely together at a site called Sedeinga in Sudan. Discovered between 2009 and 2012, researchers are surprised at how densely the pyramids are concentrated. In one field season alone, in 2011, the research team discovered 13 pyramids packed into roughly 5,381 square feet (500 square meters), or slightly larger than an NBA basketball court. They date back around 2,000 years to a time when a kingdom named Kush flourished in Sudan. Kush shared a border with Egypt and, later on, the Roman Empire. The desire of the kingdom's people to build pyramids was apparently influenced by Egyptian funerary architecture." See: http://news.yahoo.com/35-ancient-pyr...162426532.html |

I see that Fox News finally dumped Dick Morris yesterday. Even Roger Ailes has to draw the line when dealing with someone so consistently wrong as Morris has been. Here's a little compilation of Morris's predictions that never came true beginning with the 2008 Vice-Presidential debate though the election of 2012.

As for the actual likelihood of a shooting war between China and Japan/US, it's probably even less likely than the US and Russia getting into a shooting war. Open conflict serves none of the party's interest, in fact it would probably be the worst thing that can happen for all involved. And since none of them are near-failed states where extremists are positioned to overthrown the government, it's just not going to happen. |

Russian fighter jets breach Japan airspace
OK, now what?

According to this picture: Spoiler for size:
Those pilots were completely off the mark if they were supposed to do drills over the Kurils. If they keep on holding the same speech, then I'm the Queen of England. Seriously, what the hell is going on all out of a sudden? Everyone has a beef against Japan these days. And that was even before Abe was elected. |
