Robert asks, 'Why javelins? It seems that a bow would be a much better weapon for a skirmish in the ancient world, but it seems that javeLin armed light troops may have been the most common type in Europe. Additionally, if using javelins, why not an atlatl to throw them with? This would make a difference in hitting a target, but one has to believe that range would be an important factor while skirmishing.' Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast

Memphis, "le berceau du blues", beaucoup de grands musiciens y ont grandi comme Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, B. B. King et Howlin' Wolf. Memphis est également connu comme l'endroit où Martin Luther King fut assassiné. Memphis, le King et sa demeure somptueuse, Graceland. La région de Memphis était à l'origine habitée par les Amérindiens. Elle fut ensuite explorée par les Européens, d'abord conquis par l'Espagne puis une expédition française construisit le Fort Prud'homme, sur le site de l'actuelle Memphis. Le gouverneur de la Louisiane française y fit édifier le fort de l'Assomption et après le traité de Paris, les Britanniques s'y installèrent ! Finalement Memphis fut officiellement fondée en 1819. Notez que la cité fut ainsi nommée en l'honneur de l'ancienne capitale de l'Égypte sur le Nil. Voici quelques exemples avec Chuck Berry, Beatles, Lonnie Mack, Johnny Rivers, Status Quo, Ian Gillan and The Javelins. --- Du lundi au vendredi, Fanny Gillard et Laurent Rieppi vous dévoilent l'univers rock, au travers de thèmes comme ceux de l'éducation, des rockers en prison, les objets de la culture rock, les groupes familiaux et leurs déboires, et bien d'autres, chaque matin dans Coffe on the Rocks à 6h30 et rediffusion à 13h30 dans Lunch Around The Clock.
Le président américain a annoncé ce mercredi 24 août une nouvelle aide militaire de trois milliards de dollars à l'Ukraine pour marquer le jour de son indépendance. Cette nouvelle enveloppe devrait permettre à Kiev d'acquérir de nouvelles armes, de financer des formations ou des opérations. C'est la plus importante depuis le début de la guerre, qui entre aujourd'hui dans son septième mois. Entretien avec Mark Cancian, ancien colonel des Marines, aujourd'hui conseiller principal au Centre pour les études stratégiques et internationales à Washington (CSIS), au micro de notre envoyé spécial permanent à Washington. Mark Cancian : L'aide américaine est passée par trois phases. La phase initiale, c'était d'envoyer des armes faciles à utiliser, comme des missiles anti-aérien Stinger ou encore des missiles antichar Javelin. Des armes ne nécessitant pas beaucoup d'entraînement, mais que les Ukrainiens pouvaient utiliser immédiatement parce qu'ils étaient en situation de crise. Après ça, les États-Unis et les alliés de l'Otan ont envoyé de l'équipement de l'ère soviétique, que beaucoup d'alliés de l'est de l'Europe avaient encore de leur époque du pacte de Varsovie. C'était facile à envoyer en Ukraine parce qu'ils avaient déjà cet équipement. Ils pouvaient l'utiliser et l'entretenir assez facilement. RFI : Par exemple, quels étaient ces matériels ? Quelques hélicoptères MI-17, des chars T-72, des missiles antiaériens S-300, et aussi d'autres équipements. Les Ukrainiens ont eu du matériel de remplacement pour compenser leurs pertes. Les Européens de l'Est ont pu se débarrasser de leur matériel de l'époque soviétique et le remplacer par de l'équipement aux standards de l'Otan. Quant à l'industrie de défense, elle a pu vendre plus de marchandises à tout le monde. Tout le monde était gagnant. Quand cela a commencé à se raréfier, l'aide américaine est passée aux armes de l'Otan. Et il y a plusieurs raisons à cela. La première, c'est que c'est bien plus facile à alimenter. Par exemple, pour l'artillerie, les Ukrainiens ont des canons de l'ère soviétique, des 102 mm ou encore des 152 mm. Ce sont de très bonnes armes. Le problème, c'est pour se procurer les munitions. Quand vous ne pouvez pas vous fournir en Russie ou en Chine, les réserves sont très limitées. Je crois que les États-Unis ont acheté littéralement l'ensemble de réserves d'équipement et de munitions aux standards soviétiques. Mais ils avaient besoin de passer aux standards Otan, avec des 105 mm et des 155 mm. Il y a une douzaine de pays qui fabriquent ce genre de munitions, et bien sûr, dans la guerre d'attrition à laquelle nous assistons maintenant, avoir beaucoup de munitions d'artillerie est très important. Les alliés de l'Otan ont envoyé différents types d'équipement de l'Otan, et comme pour le nouvel équipement américain, les Ukrainiens ont dû être formés nos seulement à leur utilisation, mais à leur entretien. Par exemple, les canons de 155 mm ? Par exemple, c'est exact. Les Français ont envoyé des canons Caesar. Les Allemands ont envoyé des canons Panzer 2000, les États-Unis ont envoyé des M777. Ils utilisent tous les mêmes munitions, mais ils sont tous différents. Les Ukrainiens s'en sont bien sortis, mais les besoins de formation ont limité la quantité qui a pu être envoyée. Mais je pense que ce que l'on voit avec la dernière tranche d'aide américaine, c'est qu'à cause de la baisse des stocks, les États-Unis commencent à envoyer des types d'équipement différents. Parce que les réserves américaines, les stocks, ne sont pas infinis. Donc, ça commence à être un problème pour la défense américaine ? Il y a une limite à ce que les États-Unis peuvent envoyer avant que cela commence à retirer des armes à leurs propres forces. Beaucoup de ces munitions sont prévues pour les besoins américains. Cela fait prendre des risques. Cela s'est fait pour les Stingers, les Javelins et l'artillerie par exemple. Mais il y a une limite et je pense que l'armée commence à dire : « Nous ne pouvons pas envoyer beaucoup plus de notre équipement actuel. Il faut penser à d'autres types de matériels. Peut-être des choses plus anciennes, très efficaces quand même, mais que nous pouvons prendre dans nos surplus. » Parce qu'on se souvient que Joe Biden est allé en Alabama, dans l'usine qui fabrique les Javelins, pour remercier le personnel, mais aussi pour lui dire : « II faut continuer à produire ». Exactement, et les Javelins sont un bon exemple, parce que c'est une production continue. Les États-Unis en produisent à peu près 1 000 par an, mais nous en avons donné 8 500 à l'Ukraine. Nous avons augmenté la vitesse de production, mais il va falloir de nombreuses années pour les remplacer. Et en fait, j'ai été un peu surpris que la dernière tranche d'aide comprenne des Javelins. Parce que je crois qu'on en arrive au point où nous ne serons pas capables d'en envoyer d'autres avant un rattrapage de production. Un autre problème, c'est que les Ukrainiens, depuis le début, demandent des avions, demandent des types d'armes que peut-être les États-Unis ne peuvent pas fournir ou ne fournissent pas parce qu'ils ne le veulent pas ? Oui, il y a deux types d'armes que les États-Unis n'envoient pas. D'abord, il y a des choses qui sont très complexes. Les Ukrainiens ont par exemple demandé des chars et des avions de combat. Le problème, c'est que cela prendrait un ou deux ans pour mettre en place le programme de formation pour l'utilisation, l'entretien et l'aspect logistique pour un nouvel avion, un F-16 ou un char M1, par exemple. À long terme, ce serait une bonne idée, mais cela ne va pas aider pour la guerre dans les six prochains mois. Il y a aussi un autre type d'équipement que les États-Unis sont réticents à envoyer à cause du risque d'escalade. Le plus connu concerne les missiles à longue portée, qui peuvent être tirés d'un système HiMars dont les Ukrainiens disposent. Mais parce qu'ils peuvent faire 300 kilomètres, il peut frapper loin dans le territoire russe. Et les États-Unis sont inquiets que ce soit pris comme une provocation et que cela intensifie la guerre. Et les Ukrainiens n'en ont pas vraiment besoin sur le champ de bataille. À partir de maintenant, quelles sont les possibilités pour augmenter l'aide militaire ? Si je vous entends bien, ce n'est pas un problème financier ; manifestement les États-Unis et la Maison Banche veulent continuer à aider l'Ukraine, mais ils vont se heurter à une sorte d'obstacle technique. Il y a beaucoup de gens pour dire : « Envoyez juste beaucoup d'équipement là-bas. » Mais les Ukrainiens ont besoin de temps pour apprendre à les utiliser et à avoir suffisamment de personnel pour les utiliser. L'un de leur problème, c'est que si vous voulez former quelqu'un sur un HiMars américain ou un Caesar français, il faut retirer cette personne du front, l'envoyer en France, l'entraîner pendant trois, quatre, voire cinq semaines, ou tout le temps nécessaire et ensuite le renvoyer. C'est très difficile de retirer des soldats du front quand vous vous battez tous les jours et que vous avez besoin de toutes vos forces sur le front. Donc cela limite la formation que vous pouvez mettre en place, et donc la quantité d'équipement que vous pouvez envoyer. Ceci étant dit, les pays de l'Otan ont envoyé beaucoup d'équipement et cela va continuer. Il faut aussi noter que des choses qui ne se remarquent pas comme les munitions pour l'artillerie ont une énorme importance. Parce que quand les armées sont au contact, en particulier dans une situation comme nous avons aujourd'hui où les lignes de front sont assez stables, cela commence à ressembler à la Première Guerre mondiale, avec des armes du XXIe siècle. Et cela veut dire qu'il y a beaucoup de tirs d'artillerie. Les Français l'ont appris de leur propre histoire, en particulier de la Première Guerre mondiale, il faut énormément d'artillerie et cela reste toujours vrai aujourd'hui. C'est vraiment important de maintenir ce flux sur le terrain, même si ce n'est pas visible ou spectaculaire.

Today on Post Reports, the GOP candidates spreading the so-called “big lie,” and how the Jan. 6 committee hopes to educate Americans about what really happened. Plus, the United States has sent weapons to Ukraine — but now the troops need tech support. Read more:J.R. Majewski marched to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and tweeted a photo with the caption: “It's going down on 1/6.” Last month, he won the Republican nomination in an Ohio congressional district along Lake Erie.A Washington Post analysis found that across the country, more than 100 GOP primary winners back Trump's false election claims. As many Americans are tuning in to watch the Jan. 6 committee hearings on Capitol Hill this week, where even the people closest to Trump are testifying that they tried to warn him his election fraud claims were false, The Post's Amy Gardner reports that it's almost become a prerequisite in GOP primaries to embrace Trump's election denialism.Also on the show: The U.S. has sent powerful antitank weapons, called Javelins, to Ukrainian troops on the front lines. But, as Alex Horton reports, the customer service on these weapons leaves something to be desired.
Former radio host Jenn Valintyne launched a human rights complaint against q107 morning host John Derringer over the weekend. It looks like John and his heritage show have been fired and it's sending shockwaves through a dead industry. The problem of abusing human beings in media is systemic and happens because CEOs and managers care more about their paychecks than the human beings they employ. Alex joins us from a peaceful part of #Ukraine, but things are not peaceful in #Ukriane. - The ongoing war in the Russian occupied east is getting WORSE. - Videos of Javelins and Stugna RPG raining down on Russians and the death of another General. - Russian reporters are giving away Russian positions and Ukrain is using their reports to bomb location into next week. - How you can help support our brothers and sister in Ukraine. - Don't stick your hands in a lion cage, t - The Battle of Alberta continues tonight - Amber Turd rests her case.
President Biden visited a Lockheed-Martin weapons manufacturing plant yesterday, praising the workers and demanding Congress hand him $33 billion MORE to send to Ukraine. It's all about jobs, Biden said. Meanwhile, Russia has warned that NATO transports inside Ukraine delivering weapons are legitimate military targets. What could go wrong? Also today: According to a new poll, Americans aren't buying the "Putin's price hike" explanation for inflation...
In hour 3, Chris talks about Biden and his broken brain. On Tuesday Biden gave a speech, starting by saying he doesn't always make mistakes, then he said we sent Javelin missiles to Russia and Hungary. Biden also said Roe V Wade lines up with every religion. Also Dave Chapelle got tackled on stage, and had some funny lines about it.

Friends, I hope you're as well as can be expected in these difficult times. A few days ago I focused on Elon Musk and his designs on Twitter. (Here's my post.) This morning, as I predicted, Musk put in a bid to buy the rest of Twitter and take it private. Musk's bid of $54.20 per share is going to be hard for Twitter to resist, given Twitter's duty to its shareholders: It's nearly 40 percent higher than Twitter's stock price in January, before Musk started buying. Musk says he has lost confidence in Twitter's management to fulfill the company's “social imperative” as a platform for “free speech” and he'd “unlock” Twitter's potential. (He can start with unblocking me from his Twitter feed.) As I said, the problem with social media is lack of mediation. If he owns Twitter, Musk is likely to put Trump back on.But enough about Musk. Today I want to continue to probe the issue of power over how Americans get their news. I've spent enough time in and around politics to see how decisions made by the media — what issues to focus on, how those issues are framed, and who presents them — are central to our democracy. The media isn't just the “fourth branch” of government, as it's been called. It's not a branch at all. It's the trunk. Which is why I find it troubling that CBS News has hired Mick Mulvaney as an on-air contributor. You'll recall that Mulvaney served as acting chief of staff under Trump and led Trump's Office of Management and Budget. But as I'll talk about in a moment, Mulvaney wasn't just a high official in the Trump administration. He was an active enabler of Trump's deceit and attempted coup. First, some background: An “on-air contributor” on a major network is quite different from a mere “guest.” I've been in both roles. Guests appear from time to time when a particular program's producer invites them, and are unpaid. “On-air contributors,” on the other hand, appear regularly. They're paid contractors. And they're introduced as “contributors” — which gives them the cachet and authority of being part of a network's news division. Mulvaney's first appearance as a paid contributor for CBS News occurred several days ago on a “MoneyWatch” segment in which he was asked to explain Biden's plan for taxing the super-rich. The anchor, Anne-Marie Green, introduced Mulvaney as “a former OMB director” and “the guy to ask about this.” But she said nothing about whose OMB he directed, suggesting that Mulvaney was simply a budget expert offering an expert analysis rather than a fierce Trump partisan.Then she asked him whether a “regular working-class American” should care about Biden's tax proposal. Mulvaney's answer: “It's easy to look at it and say, ‘Don't worry, you're not going to pay this,'” but regular working Americans would have to “prove that they don't have to pay it,” and such a burden “could be troublesome: every single year proving that you're not worth a hundred million dollars.” This is as misleading as it gets in broadcast media (with the possible exception of Fox News). Nothing in Biden's proposal to tax the super-rich requires that people prove they're not super-rich. Mulvaney's claim was pure demagoguery.But that's what we should expect from Mulvaney. Recall that Mulvaney was complicit in Trump's attempted extortion of Ukraine President Zelensky in 2019 — threatening to withhold U.S. aid to fight Russian aggression unless Zelensky came up with dirt on Hunter Biden. (This was the call in which Zelensky's request “we need more Javelins” — anti-tank missiles that have proved crucial in Ukraine's defense against Russia's invasion — was met with Trump's “I would like you to do us a favor though.”) When the quid pro quo came to light, Mulvaney brushed it off: “I have news for everybody: Get over it. There's going to be political influence in foreign policy.” After Trump withheld the aid, Mulvaney asked White House budget officials for legal justification to withhold it until Zelensky did what Trump wanted him to do —announce an investigation of Hunter Biden. Oh, and there was the time Mulvaney called COVID a “media hoax” designed to bring down Trump. And the time he predicted that if Trump lost in 2020 he would “concede gracefully.” I should add that Mulvaney is now a high-powered lobbyist for corporate interests — another fact that CBS somehow failed to mention in its announcement of his position and when it introduced him on air. When I was growing up, CBS News was the home of news legends like Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite — pioneers who set the standards for broadcast news. So why is CBS News now reaching into the cesspool of Trump conspirators and enablers to hire Mulvaney? Neeraj Khemlani, co-head of CBS News, explained to the CBS News staff at a meeting last month that when it comes to contributor hires, “getting access to both sides of the aisle is a priority because we know the Republicans are going to take over, most likely, in the midterms.”“Getting access?” Access to what? To the big lie about the 2020 election? To lies about COVID? To bonkers economics? To insights about how to pull off a coup that nearly destroyed American democracy and continues to threaten it?Since when does CBS News's decisions about whom to hire depend on predictions about which party will prevail in the midterm elections, anyway? What if the party that's predicted to win is so contemptuous of democracy that it continues to claim, without basis in fact or law, that the last presidential election was stolen? Would the CBS News of the 1950s hire as an on-air contributor Senator Joseph McCarthy (who conducted a vicious anti-communist witch hunt that wrecked the lives and careers of countless Americans) because the News Division wanted access to “both sides?” (In fact, CBS News's Edward R. Murrow exposed McCarthy as a liar and demagogue.) If there were ever any doubts that “both sides” of the political aisle are about the same, the events of the past two years should have laid them to rest. One of America's two national political parties has embraced (and been embraced by) an anti-democratic extremist fringe. CBS News, like every news outlet and platform, has a cardinal responsibility to protect American democracy from this growing menace. To fulfill this responsibility, it must report accurately what is occurring. It should not pander to the menace by hiring a person who has had a hand in it and will further obscure the truth. Just as Twitter shouldn't pander to the menace by allowing Trump back on its platform (which will likely occur if Musk owns all of Twitter).That's my view. What do you think?

So let's talk about the warIs it Ukraine versus Russia?Yes. On one level.But Russia's beef is with NATO's influence in Ukraine. So it's really a proxy war of Russia versus NATO. And the big cheese in NATO is America.Sure France and Germany and Spain have big concerns because the fight is on their continent.But in terms of global geopolitics, this is the States' circus.So will it escalate to a full World War?Well NATO seems to want to inflict an unconditional defeat on Russia. One where Putin goes, that's regime change. That's a biggie. That's messing with another country's sovereignty.You've got to leave the loser with dignity. We achieved regime change in 1918 and we ended out back in an even bigger war 21 years later.So it will continue and maybe escalate until Putin finds a way to either win, or lose and save face.Now Putin will not be saving face if people like UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson keeps saying things like sanctions against Russia will continue, no matter what Russia's position is or Biden continuing to call him a war criminal, even though he most likely is, and promising a reckoning in the International Courts.Putin and his regime are being threatened with being backed up against a wall and being shot at until they disappear.Nobody fights like a cornered rat. Particularly one who's old, arrogant, isolated and fond of necking steroids.Which brings me to New Zealand.Currently, we are tut-tutting. Others are helping to shoot the cornered rat. Many of us want us to make a bigger move and truck some missiles to Ukraine. All of us fall into emotional rhetoric when explaining our rationale.So putting a logical hat on. I have no problem with us backing off going to lethal aid. Our lethal aid is minimal. Virtue signalling at best.I have no need to be in lockstep with NATO. They're the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and not the South Pacific. I'm certainly supportive.By backing off from putting knives in the fight we will become one of the few countries that has not directly militarily threatened Russia which puts us in a unique position when the endgame comes I'm happy that we might be able to help pick up the pieces while there's still pieces to pick up.If our current position means we might be able to help broker a resolution I think that is a far greater donation to world security than a couple of hundred Javelins.By the way, if this were China into Taiwan that would be a completely different story.

Rotorua locals want the government to commit to stop sending out-of-town homeless to stay in emergency housing. Is that a fair request? The Defence Minister wanted to send lethal aid to Ukraine – but Cabinet has said no. Should it reconsider? The bank of mum and dad – is the extent to which we're subsidising our kids a problem? Wimbledon is looking to ban the world's Tennis No 2 Daniil Medvedev because he hasn't given tournament organisers a written declaration that he's not getting money from Putin, Russia or Belarus, nor will he be making supportive comments of them. Can we expect high profile Russians to speak out against Russia – and possibly put themselves at risk?

Live from the No Panic Zone—I'm Steve Gruber—I am America's Voice—God Bless America this is the Steve Gruber Show— speaking truth to stolen power—and delivering the stone cold truth—every day— Here are three big things you need to know right now— ONE— I spent most of St. Paddy's day—trying to make sure Michigans Attorney General Dana Nessel—had a bottle of Jameson and a wheelchair to get home— TWO— Hunter Biden—you know the one his dad consults on revenge porn etiquette—well he is coughing up over a million dollars to square his tax bill— THREE— Vladimir Putin is getting more unpredictable and more unstable from all accounts—arresting people in his inner circle—and discussing cleansing the nation of traitors— He is sounding more unhinged and it is rooted it seems in his Army's inability to overwhelm Ukraine—it has been over 3-weeks now since Russian tanks rolled over its neighbors borders—and I think many observers—myself included expected that the Red Army would have overwhelmed the much smaller Ukrainian Army— But it's a numbers game—and from what I have gleaned from it all—Russia didn't send overwhelming numbers—BUT it is more telling than that—it looks like Russia is still fighting like its 1945—trying to over-run the enemy with tanks—and Russia has more than any other army in the world— But it appears Russia—and its armor heavy military—has not realized its 2022—and the technology of drones—Javelins and other anti-tank weapons has turned the battlefield into a graveyard of Russian tanks according to numerous sources— In fact, in sounds like the tanks and other lighter armored vehicles have been getting creamed by a well outfitted Ukrainian military— Which brings me back to a dictator on the brink—and make no mistake—the man is a dictator—and he detained one of his top generals Thursday in pursuit of traitors against mother Russia— This is an ugly war—one where the propaganda machines are working overtime—to convince you they are the ones to support— In the end—I support one team—America—and once again I say—its time for an updated Monroe Doctrine—to put America First as the policy for all of us—where we respect our nation—our laws, our language and our borders among other things— We don't need to wade into another foreign war—unless that is the only option we have— let Germany, France, England and the rest take care of this one—we took care of the last two—BUT if Putin fires on The United States—NO MERCY!

The event will go to benefit Convoy of Hope. Smirnoff, who immigrated from Ukraine in the 1970's, is wanting to raise money to help support Ukrainians. President Biden approved an additional $800 million in military aid for Ukraine. The new package includes 800 Stinger anti-aircraft systems; 2,000 Javelins, 1,000 light anti-armor weapons and 6,000 AT-4 anti-armor systems; 100 unmanned drones; 100 grenade launchers, 5,000 rifles, 1,000 pistols, 400 machine guns, and 400 shotguns; more than 20 million rounds of small arms ammunition and grenade launcher and mortar rounds; 25,000 sets of body armor; and 25,000 helmets.

Just over one year ago Bioware's Anthem was released as one of the most anticipated video games of the current generation. Shortly thereafter all of the Javelins from Fort Tarsis crashed and burned into a confusing pile of defects, mismanagement, and flaming Scars. Well the dust has settled and the guys decided to celebrate Anthem's first birthday by reinstalling the game and jumping back in their suits in order to answer the questions: what is Anthem today? Has BioWare improved it since the middle of last year? Have they delivered on any of their promises to raise the game from the ashes of embarrassment to something worth gamer's time? All of this is answered and while they're at it Chris and Kyle discuss a few other AAA titles that had big release day hype but turned out to be disappointing flops.

It's almost summertime, and hot rod shows and vintage car cruise nights are again popping up all over the country. This week we talk about the history of AMC automobiles, and are joined by Galaxy Good Guy Tom Dulaney, an AMC historian and collector. American Motors formed in 1954 with the merger of the Nash and Hudson automobile companies. In subsequent years, notable cars such as the Rambler, Gremlin, and Hornet, as well as a number of muscle cars in their later years rolled out of AMC assembly lines. Tom outlines the history of AMC and its innovations over the years. He also tells us about the car clubs and followers who actively collect AMC vehicles, while recalling the popularity of AMC vehicles in TV shows and movies. As a later, independent automobile company that provided popular vehicles for many years, underdog AMC was well known for innovation, despite heavy competition by "Big 3" car companies. Eventually absorbed by Chrysler Corporation, the AMC legacy continues today, with Ramblers, Pacers, Javelins, Hornets, and other AMC models seen on the road, and at car shows and automobile museums around the world. #nashrambler #amcpacer #amcjavelin #nashhudson #americanmotors Let's imagine we are in Mike's late uncle's 1957 Rambler station wagon and go for a ride on Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, on the Galaxy Nostalgia Network!

Bioware's Anthem has seen no small number of potholes on the road to commercial and critical success, but the announcement yesterday that the game would receive almost none of the updates previously publicized for release in April (by Bioware itself), may well have been the last straw for many. What did Bioware say yesterday, and how will it impact development of the game going forward? What role did Electronic Arts have in delivering a game that requires such foundational changes to its structure that even a 90-day forecast is not to be trusted? Why did the 90-day roadmap exist in the first place, and how was it used to sell a wary public on the prospects of Anthem? And why might use of the roadmap at this point be considered "deceptive", given what the Federal Trade Commission has previously said on the issue? Strap into your Javelins, folks, it's another long one.

George Ivan Morrison nació el 31 de agosto de 1945 en Belfast, Irlanda del Norte, como hijo único de George Morrison, electricista, y Violet Stitt Morrison, cantante. Entre 1950 y 1956, Morrison, acudió a la Elmgrove Primary School. Van creció escuchando a artistas como Jelly Roll Morton, Ray Charles y Solomon Burke. La colección de discos de su padre le expuso a varios géneros musicales como el blues de Muddy Waters, el gospel de Mahalia Jackson, el jazz de Charlie Parker y el folk de Woody Guthrie. Cuando Lonnie Donegan obtuvo éxito con «Rock Island Line», compuesta por Lead Belly, Morrison sintió que estaba familiarizado con el skiffle. Su padre le compró la primera guitarra acústica cuando tenía once años, y aprendió a tocar acordes rudimentarios. Un año después, Morrison formó su primera banda, The Sputniks, que fue seguido por otros grupos de corta duración. Con catorce años, formó Midnight Special, otra banda de skiffle. Posteriormente, convenció a su padre para que le comprase un saxofón. Como saxofonista, Morrison se unió a varias bandas locales, incluyendo Deanie Sands and the Javelins, con quien también tocó la guitarra y cantó. El grupo fue posteriormente conocido como The Monarchs. Después de estar de aprendiz en varios sitios, obtuvo un trabajo como limpiacristales. Sin embargo, Morrison tenía inquietudes musicales desde muy temprana edad y continuó tocando en ocasiones con The Monarchs. Con diecisiete años, salió de gira por Europa con The Monarchs, que pasó a llamarse The International Monarchs. En Alemania, el grupo grabó un sencillo, «Boozoo Hully Gully», con «Twingy Baby» como cara B, bajo el nombre de Georgie and The Monarchs, que supuso la primera grabación profesional de Morrison. A su regreso a Belfast en noviembre de 1963, The Monarchs se separaron, lo que permitió a Morrison contactar con Geordie Sproule y tocar con él en el Manhattan Showband. Cuando Armstrong fue a una audición para tocar con Brian Rosi y The Golden Eagles, Morrison fue con él y fue contratado como cantante.

Degra. Throughout Enterprise's third season we see the Xindi Council debate their plans to destroy Earth. Each species has its say, but the central focus is on Degra, father of the Xindi superweapon. Modeled after J. Robert Oppenheimer, father of the atomic bomb, Degra is the Xindi with whom we can most easily identify because he represents the primate lineage of evolution on Xindus. He also mirrors Archer in many ways, and turns out to be the linchpin in the NX-01's mission to save Earth and the Star Trek future. In this episode of Warp Five we're joined by Tommy Kraft to discuss Degra, how his actions echo those of scientists on our own world, how his immense regret over the damage caused by his creation drives him to help Archer, and how he pays the ultimate price to make sure he saves both his own people and those he originally set out to destroy.
AMIRI BARAKACLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO SHOWPoet, writer, teacher, and political activist Amiri Baraka was born Everett LeRoi Jones in 1934 in Newark, New Jersey. He attended Rutgers University and Howard University, spent three years in the U.S. Air Force, and returned to New York City to attend Columbia University and the New School for Social Research. Baraka was well known for his strident social criticism, often writing in an incendiary style that made it difficult for some audiences and critics to respond with objectivity to his works. Throughout most of his career his method in poetry, drama, fiction, and essays was confrontational, calculated to shock and awaken audiences to the political concerns of black Americans. For decades, Baraka was one of the most prominent voices in the world of American literature.Baraka’s own political stance changed several times, thus dividing his oeuvre into periods: as a member of the avant-garde during the 1950s, Baraka—writing as Leroi Jones—was associated with Beat poets like Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac; in the ‘60s, he moved to Harlem and became a Black Nationalist; in the ‘70s, he was involved in third-world liberation movements and identified as a Marxist. More recently, Baraka was accused of anti-Semitism for his poem “Somebody Blew up America,” written in response to the September 11 attacks.Baraka incited controversy throughout his career. He was praised for speaking out against oppression as well as accused of fostering hate. Critical opinion has been sharply divided between those who agree, with Dissent contributor Stanley Kaufman, that Baraka’s race and political moment have created his celebrity, and those who feel that Baraka stands among the most important writers of the twentieth century. In the American Book Review, Arnold Rampersad counted Baraka with Phyllis Wheatley, Frederick Douglass, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, and Ralph Ellison “as one of the eight figures . . . who have significantly affected the course of African-American literary culture.”Baraka did not always identify with radical politics, nor did his writing always court controversy. During the 1950s Baraka lived in Greenwich Village, befriending Beat poets Allen Ginsberg, Frank O’Hara, and Gilbert Sorrentino. The white avant-garde—primarily Ginsberg, O’Hara, and leader of the Black Mountain poets Charles Olson—and Baraka believed in poetry as a process of discovery rather than an exercise in fulfilling traditional expectations. Baraka, like the projectivist poets, believed that a poem’s form should follow the shape determined by the poet’s own breath and intensity of feeling. In 1958 Baraka founded Yugen magazine and Totem Press, important forums for new verse. He was married to his co-editor, Hettie Cohen, from 1960 to 1965. His first play, A Good Girl Is Hard to Find, was produced at Sterington House in Montclair, New Jersey, that same year. Preface to a Twenty Volume Suicide Note, Baraka’s first published collection of poems appeared in 1961. M.L. Rosenthal wrote in The New Poets: American and British Poetry since World War II that these poems show Baraka’s “natural gift for quick, vivid imagery and spontaneous humor.” Rosenthal also praised the “sardonic or sensuous or slangily knowledgeable passages” that fill the early poems. While the cadence of blues and many allusions to black culture are found in the poems, the subject of blackness does not predominate. Throughout, rather, the poet shows his integrated, Bohemian social roots. The book’s last line is “You are / as any other sad man here / american.”With the rise of the civil rights movement Baraka’s works took on a more militant tone. His trip to Cuba in 1959 marked an important turning point in his life. His view of his role as a writer, the purpose of art, and the degree to which ethnic awareness deserved to be his subject changed dramatically. In Cuba he met writers and artists from third world countries whose political concerns included the fight against poverty, famine, and oppressive governments. In Home: Social Essays (1966), Baraka explains how he tried to defend himself against their accusations of self-indulgence, and was further challenged by Jaime Shelley, a Mexican poet, who said, “‘In that ugliness you live in, you want to cultivate your soul? Well, we’ve got millions of starving people to feed, and that moves me enough to make poems out of.’” Soon Baraka began to identify with third world writers and to write poems and plays with strong political messages.Dutchman, a play of entrapment in which a white woman and a middle-class black man both express their murderous hatred on a subway, was first performed Off-Broadway in 1964. While other dramatists of the time were wedded to naturalism, Baraka used symbolism and other experimental techniques to enhance the play’s emotional impact. The play established Baraka’s reputation as a playwright and has been often anthologized and performed. It won the Village Voice Obie Award in 1964 and was later made into a film. The plays and poems following Dutchman expressed Baraka’s increasing disappointment with white America and his growing need to separate from it. Critics observed that as Baraka’s poems became more politically intense, they left behind some of the flawless technique of the earlier poems. Richard Howard wrote of The Dead Lecturer (1964) in the Nation: “These are the agonized poems of a man writing to save his skin, or at least to settle in it, and so urgent is their purpose that not one of them can trouble to be perfect.”To make a clean break with the Beat influence, Baraka turned to writing fiction in the mid-1960s, penning The System of Dante’s Hell (1965), a novel, and Tales (1967), a collection of short stories. The stories are “‘fugitive narratives’ that describe the harried flight of an intensely self-conscious Afro-American artist/intellectual from neo-slavery of blinding, neutralizing whiteness, where the area of struggle is basically within the mind,” Robert Elliot Fox wrote in Conscientious Sorcerers: The Black Postmodernist Fiction of LeRoi Jones/Baraka, Ishmael Reed, and Samuel R. Delany.The role of violent action in achieving political change is more prominent in these stories, as is the role of music in black life.In addition to his poems, novels and politically-charged essays, Baraka is a noted writer of music criticism. His classic history Blues People: Negro Music in White America (1963) traces black music from slavery to contemporary jazz. Finding indigenous black art forms was important to Baraka in the ‘60s, as he was searching for a more authentic voice for his own poetry. Baraka became known as an articulate jazz critic and a perceptive observer of social change. As Clyde Taylor stated in Amiri Baraka: The Kaleidoscopic Torch, “The connection he nailed down between the many faces of black music, the sociological sets that nurtured them, and their symbolic evolutions through socio-economic changes, in Blues People, is his most durable conception, as well as probably the one most indispensable thing said about black music.” Baraka also published the important studies Black Music (1968) and The Music: Reflections on Jazz and Blues (1987). Lloyd W. Brown commented in Amiri Baraka that Baraka’s essays on music are flawless: “As historian, musicological analyst, or as a journalist covering a particular performance Baraka always commands attention because of his obvious knowledge of the subject and because of a style that is engaging and persuasive even when the sentiments are questionable and controversial.”After Black Muslim leader Malcolm X was killed in 1965, Baraka moved to Harlem and founded the Black Arts Repertory Theatre/School. The Black Arts Movement helped develop a new aesthetic for black art and Baraka was its primary theorist. Black American artists should follow “black,” not “white” standards of beauty and value, he maintained, and should stop looking to white culture for validation. The black artist’s role, he wrote in Home: Social Essays (1966), is to “aid in the destruction of America as he knows it.” Foremost in this endeavor was the imperative to portray society and its ills faithfully so that the portrayal would move people to take necessary corrective action. He married his second wife, Amina, in 1967. In that same year, Baraka published the poetry collection Black Magic,which chronicles his separation from white culture and values while displaying his mastery of poetic technique. There was no doubt that Baraka’s political concerns superseded his just claims to literary excellence, and critics struggled to respond to the political content of the works. Some felt the best art must be apolitical and dismissed Baraka’s newer work as “a loss to literature.” Kenneth Rexroth wrote inWith Eye and Ear that Baraka “has succumbed to the temptation to become a professional Race Man of the most irresponsible sort. . . . His loss to literature is more serious than any literary casualty of the Second War.” In 1966 Bakara moved back to Newark, New Jersey, and a year later changed his name to the Bantuized Muslim appellation Imamu (“spiritual leader,” later dropped) Ameer (later Amiri, “prince”) Baraka (“blessing”).By the early 1970s Baraka was recognized as an influential African-American writer. Randall noted in Black World that younger black poets Nikki Giovanni and Don L. Lee (later Haki R. Madhubuti) were “learning from LeRoi Jones, a man versed in German philosophy, conscious of literary tradition . . . who uses the structure of Dante’s Divine Comedy in his System of Dante’s Hell and the punctuation, spelling and line divisions of sophisticated contemporary poets.” More importantly, Arnold Rampersad wrote in the American Book Review, “More than any other black poet . . . he taught younger black poets of the generation past how to respond poetically to their lived experience, rather than to depend as artists on embalmed reputations and outmoded rhetorical strategies derived from a culture often substantially different from their own.”After coming to see Black Nationalism as a destructive form of racism, Baraka denounced it in 1974 and became a third world socialist. He produced a number of Marxist poetry collections and plays in the 1970s that reflected his newly adopted political goals. Critics contended that works like the essays collected in Daggers and Javelins (1984) lack the emotional power of the works from his Black Nationalist period. However, Joe Weixlmann, in Amiri Baraka: The Kaleidoscopic Torch, argued against the tendency to categorize the radical Baraka instead of analyze him: “At the very least, dismissing someone with a label does not make for very satisfactory scholarship. Initially, Baraka’s reputation as a writer and thinker derived from a recognition of the talents with which he is so obviously endowed. The subsequent assaults on that reputation have, too frequently, derived from concerns which should be extrinsic to informed criticism.”In more recent years, recognition of Baraka’s impact on late 20th century American culture has resulted in the publication of several anthologies of his literary oeuvre.The LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka Reader (1999) presents a thorough overview of the writer’s development, covering the period from 1957 to 1983. The volume presents Baraka’s work from four different periods and emphasizes lesser-known works rather than the author’s most famous writings. Transbluency: The Selected Poems of Amiri Baraka/LeRoi Jones (1961-1995), published in 1995, was hailed by Daniel L. Guillory in Library Journal as “critically important.” And Donna Seaman, writing inBooklist, commended the “lyric boldness of this passionate collection.” Kamau Brathwaite described Baraka’s 2004 collection, Somebody Blew up America & Other Poems, as “one more mark in modern Black radical and revolutionary cultural reconstruction.” The book contains Baraka’s controversial poem of the same name, which he wrote as New Jersey’s poet laureate. After the poem’s publication, public outcry became so great that the governor of New Jersey took action to abolish the position. Baraka sued, though the United States Court of Appeals eventually ruled that state officials were immune from such charges.Baraka’s legacy as a major poet of the second half of the 20th century remains matched by his importance as a cultural and political leader. His influence on younger writers has been significant and widespread, and as a leader of the Black Arts movement of the 1960s Baraka did much to define and support black literature’s mission into the next century. His experimental fiction of the 1960s is considered some of the most significant African-American fiction since that of Jean Toomer. Writers from other ethnic groups have credited Baraka with opening “tightly guarded doors” in the white publishing establishment, noted Maurice Kenney in Amiri Baraka: The Kaleidoscopic Torch, who added: “We’d all still be waiting the invitation from the New Yorker without him. He taught us how to claim it and take it.”Baraka was recognized for his work through a PEN/Faulkner Award, a Rockefeller Foundation Award for Drama, and the Langston Hughes Award from City College of New York. He was awarded fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. Amiri Baraka crossed over on January 9, 2014To visit Amiri Baraka's website CLICK HERE

And it ends with a lot of dead Ukrainians. Even with the hundreds of billions of dollars of HIMARS, Stingers, Javelins, and now the potential for F-16s and war-crime cluster munitions, Ukraine, according to Johnson's military analysis, has not made a single successful stand against fortified Russian forces and will only suffer more losses as the pointless war rages forward. And what's his solution? Well, you won't be surprised to hear it's just about exactly the same as every other Useful Idiots guest's: diplomacy. The west wins through peace. Johnson covers it all: how Russiagate led to the war, the Wagner Group's “coup” and Prigozhin's silly disguises, and the real reason the west hates Putin so much. Hint: it's not because of the communist/dictator/Hitler/4D-chess super genius stuff they tell us. “We're angry at Putin because he shut down the money flow from the oligarchs that was going into the pockets of a lot of western capitalists. It's that simple.” Catch it all in the extended interview with Larry Johnson. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
