16,000 year-old clay figure. In the Sabuniye tumulus. h/t, Jungleman. They always call them "mother goddesses" but I think it was just old-time T&A.
The Cahaba River. I knew nothing about this.
Forget Woodstock's anniversary. Tim Blair notes that this was the 45th anniversary of this very good stuff.
But it's groovy, man, that Arlo is a conservative. Like, far out.

Why the heck would they bring Howard Dean into this? Even more wacky, they bring in the E Word. Also, was that public option removal thing a head fake? What would Alinsky do? He would lie, wouldn't he? The ends justify the means.
Hey. What happened to the Anti-War Movement? Ah, my naive young friend. Now you see how the game is played.
From Yalie Never Yet Melted on Yale:
We have serious problems with expertise in the elite circles of the contemporary intelligentsia. Its members’ utter and complete lack of both testosterone and common sense tends to preclude the possibility of the combination of mastery of any particular specialized topic with demonstrated skill in the manipulation of words and symbols being associated with sound judgement or manly behavior.
Why Obama's Ratings Are Sinking: Americans will put up with a lot. But not with someone who imperils their future.
Dr. Sanity (I thought she retired from blogging):
All thuggish leftists and collectivists, including many of those we have elected to represent us in Congress; as well as the Taliban and other Islamofascist movements, intuitively understand that by controlling the education of the young, they can have an endless supply of fodder for their revolutionary utopia.
Controlling health care, as was pointed out in the previous post, helps them control everyone's life in the present. But, when they completely control education, then the political left will control the future and will have achieved their final victory.
BTW, "Hasta la victoria siempre" was the signoff used by Ernesto "Ché" Guevara in the last letter he wrote to Fidel Castro.
Dr. Melissa:
Who likes being treated like an idiot? No one. And yet, the Left and Liberals in general, speak to the American people like they’re morons. The absolute worst is Al Gore. The most insulting thing is the guy ain’t that smart and he comes across as a doltish buffoon and still has the nerve to lecture stupid Americans. It’s annoying...
And so, rather than engage Sarah Palin on the merits, even the editors at the National Review get lost in what they consider hyperbole. Elites hate hyperbole (except when they’re employing it to chastise the masses into using fluorescent lighting). The form-police ignore the substance because the messenger doesn’t have an air of hauteur and the Ivy league parchment required to engage in the “conversation”.
WSJ:
Right now the entire Beltway—including the West Wing—seems obsessed with finding out what went wrong with the administration's sales pitch. No one appears to think the problem might be substance. Or that the vague answers and vitriolic rhetoric we get from Democrats such as Mr. Reid convey a sense that the plans they favor will not hold up under public scrutiny.
