[An Nahar] Egypt's minister of antiquities says Japanese archaeologists have unearthed the tomb of an ancient beer brewer in the city of Luxor that is more than 3,000 years old. We should organize a pilgrimage.
Mohammed Ibrahim says Friday the tomb dates back to the Ramesside period and belongs to the chief "maker of beer for gods of the dead" who was also the head of a warehouse.
He added that the walls of the tomb's chambers contain "fabulous designs and colors, reflecting details of daily life ... along with their religious rituals."
The head of the Japanese team, Jiro Kondo, says the tomb was discovered during work near another tomb belonging to a statesmen under Amenhotep III, grandfather of the famed boy-pharaoh Tutankhamun.

A lot of firearms stuff in the news at the moment, but none more important than the newly-returned-from-vacation president wants to write new rules that add new data to the NICS database to include outpatient involuntary mental commitments. What could go wrong? Just another small group of individuals, the mentally ill systematically denied the right to purchase firearms through the federal system, right? Everyone should be up in arms except that the political climate now means you are crazy if you disagree with the new rule. Just like the Violence Against Women Act, if you oppose it you are a wife beater, except that law was expanded and its provisions were made retroactive. Seriously, no potential for abuse with the new rules, right? Just another expansion of the scope of government, just as we want. Right? Right??
Just as they said they would, Magul will leave Colorado, in a marijuana-induced haze and all, and build new manufacturing plants in more gun friendly states such as Texas and Wyoming.
From the Other Perfesser, a federal judge said last week that the ban on magazine limits in New York was unconstitutional. Everything else on the fascist bucket list was upheld. The judiciary has abdicated its role in society and has become a handmaiden of the left. Meanwhile, gun confiscations and attacks on the individual right to keep and bear arms continue by the state police in New York, as in California.
The gun re-registration act in Washington, DC goes into effect this week with a $48 per year fee, not including all the background check fees that must be paid. Not only that, you are presumed to be a criminal who must be photographed and finger printed. Unless your name is David Gregory, of course. Another political entity in which gun confiscation is the next logical step. It will happen.
According to David Cordrea, a representative of a Connecticut gun rights group was ordered to leave state grounds because he dared to pass out business card to the serfs law abiding citizens registering their firearms, so that state can take them at a later date. As an aside, the word is that compliance is at roughly 25 percent, which is a statement that the other 75 percent have for the individuals registering their guns.

Besoeker's link is worth looking at just for artistry purposes; some fine work.
You military people do realise that these people consider you a bit off anyways, and combat vets automatically have PTSD in their minds or arguments. As Baterman wants, the second you leave the military you will be unable to possess firearms, and will likely have to check in periodically and/or allow random searches.
Then it will be anyone with a DUI or drug charge, public intox, questioned in a violent activity, as well as mental committment.
Then it will be anyone who has been on certain medications, especially painkillers which include those used during labor, removal of wisdom teeth, any operation which require extended pain relief or knockout.
At this point, anyone who cannot obtain a license to have themselves as a security company for themself will likely be subjected to random drug testing and automatic search without warrent for security of firearms.
They can call it the Arrest Baby Beaters Act (ABBA) for all I care. The goal has been made clear, they are just working on the sales pitch and legal dictates, testing the temperature.
Grossly underreported at the time was the fact that Gibsons chief executive, Henry Juszkiewicz, contributed to Republican politicians. Recent donations have included $2,000 to Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., and $1,500 to Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn, the editorial reads.

Love early music. Love most every oriental vernacular music. Moonbeam mishmash and its cultural and revisionist baggage, not so much.

[MAGHAREBIA] Mauritanians rang in the new year Tuesday night despite pressure from radical Islamists who had urged authorities to ban celebrations.
A group calling itself "Ansar Tatbeek al-Sharia al Islamia" or "Supporters of the Implementation of Islamic Sharia" threatened to harass anyone who celebrated the holiday in Mauritania.
"We condemn and denounce the so-called New Year's Eve celebrations because they are against the Holy Book and the Sunna, and given what they produce in terms of immorality and evil," the gunnies said in a December 26th statement.
The statement called on the Mauritanian government to prevent these gatherings and celebrations that the gunnies claim are shameful and degrading.
In a statement to Magharebia before the holidays, Yahdhih Ould Dahi, secretary-general of Ansar Tatbeek al-Sharia al-Islamia in Mauritania said his group planned several activities to steer people away from marking the occasion.
"We will also disturb them with speeches and sermons on loudspeakers to stop them from celebrating," he said.
Describing his group, Ould Dahi said they were "unemployed young graduates of Saudi universities" and their mission was "to fight against vices and to apply Sharia".
The threats of this group to curtail freedom of expression and interfere in the private lives of citizens have prompted some young people to launch a counter movement.
A statement issued by the campaign to collect signatures against militancy led by activists, intellectuals, media workers, and writers noted, "The authoritarian role posed by these groups in secret and in public is a risk to the civil state and threatens its existence as a civilian social entity, based on the law."
"Trusteeship imposed by these groups through excommunication and accusations of treason, verbal terrorism and physical abuse, threaten to transform the national state into a failed entity of the kind that distant and neighbouring experiences have shown to be a failure and a risk," the statement added.
"They are seeking to transform this country to a takfir ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed... i emirate with an inquisition, run amok, destroy crops and cattle and humiliate human dignity and humanity," the activists warned.
The moderates also warned that turbans threatened to "destroy the authentic identity of this country that is based on a tolerant understanding of Islam".
The statement concluded by saying, "The seriousness of this campaign lies in the mentality of restriction, the custody of thoughts and behaviours of individuals and adults and an effort to reshape them. It is a matter that is threatening our linguistic identity, culture, and intellectual diversity, which is the currency of this society."
On the street, Mauritanians were sharply critical of the Islamists' attempts to curtail freedom of expression.
"What is new in this call is that it does not discriminate between the targets," said media figure Ahmedou Ashrif. "This group used to target Westerners but this time, it seems to have made a leap in terms of goals and is pursuing to return Mauritanian society to what it sees as Sharia, and the fight against westernization and decay, by taking advantage of these celebrations."
For his part, theatre director Mohammed Salem Ould Khliyah said that the radical group's call to harass revellers was "an immoral intervention contrary to the values of tolerance and a flagrant violation of the right of any person celebrating Christmas in Mauritania".
"We have to give others the right to celebrate without harming them or using force against them," Ould Khliyah told Magharebia.

[An Nahar] La Belle France is putting together a plan to allow divorces by mutual consent to proceed without a judge, simplifying a process that some critics say is already too easy.
Social Affairs Minister Dominique Bertinotti confirmed the plan on Friday, telling BFM-TV that "simplification is a good thing."
Under the proposal, a court clerk could approve divorces when both spouses agree.
"I divorce thee, I divorce thee, I ..."
According to the Le Figaro newspaper, divorcing couples in agreement spend an average of only eight minutes before a judge now.
Bertinotti said court clerks are highly trained in the law and could handle those cases, freeing up judges for trickier breakups. Bertinotti added: "One couple in two will divorce. Do we have to make it more difficult?"
Opponents noted the plan will further weaken the institution of marriage.
Seems pretty weak in France right now...

Ribeauvillé storks angered, threaten an end to week end deliveries.
[An Nahar] Spain vowed Friday to stand firm on its policy on ETA prisoners even though tossed in the slammer You have the right to remain silent... members of the armed Basque separatist group have softened their stance on key demands.
Last week EPPK, a collective representing hundreds of tossed in the slammer You have the right to remain silent... members of ETA, western Europe's last major armed secessionist group, dropped its long-standing demand for a general amnesty.
In a statement on December 28 EPPK, representing prisoners who constitute most of ETA's active surviving membership, also said it would consider letting them negotiate individually for release.
Previously, they had refused to play ball with the prison authorities since the prisoners rejected the terms of their imprisonment.
"This statement has no value regarding the government's anti-terrorism policy in general, nor the policy of dispersing prisoners," Interior Minister Jorge Fernandez Diaz told news hounds on Friday in his first public comments on the EPPK statement.

[An Nahar] Turkey's former army chief Ilker Basbug, the highest-ranking defendant convicted in a mass trial over an alleged coup plot, has fiercely criticized his comrades for showing a lack of loyalty and support.
In his book "Suclamalara Karsi Gercekler" (Accusations Against Truth), Basbug gives an account of his two years in detention, as well as his frustration after he was jugged Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! for life in August last year convicted of plotting to overthrow the government.
"Leading and running a terrorist organization! Let me be clear, my world turned black after I heard the charges," he wrote.
The 71-year-old decorated general accuses the judiciary of an unfair decision, and lashes out at politicians for acting as mere bystanders, and the media for hesitating to seek the truth.
But his major disappointment was the lack of solidarity from an institution he had served for 48 years before retiring in August 2010.
"The Turkish Armed Forces, with its active and retired officers, failed by showing disloyalty to their comrades," he wrote.
Basbug, who led the army from 2008 to 2010, was the most senior officer in a crowded dock convicted of involvement in a shadowy group dubbed "Ergenekon", accused of instigating an armed uprising against Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Islamic-leaning government, which came to power in 2002.

[An Nahar] A Turkish court on Friday released two Kurdish politicians from prison after the country's top court ruled that their long pre-trial detention violated their rights, media reported.
Ibrahim Ayhan and Gulser Yildirim of the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP), were enjugged Drop the rosco, Muggsy, or you're one with the ages! in 2010 suspected of links to the banned Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
But a court in the Kurdish-dominated southeastern city of Diyarbakir released them pending trial after a Constitutional Court ruling on Thursday.
The court upheld their complaint that their detention violated the rights of an elected official and that the time spent behind bars was excessive, the Radikal newspaper reported.
The constitutional court also ordered 3,000 Turkish lira ($1,400, 1,000 euros) in compensation to be paid to each politician, it said.
The BDP has long argued that court rulings blocking the release of incarcerated I ain't sayin' nuttin' widdout me mout'piece! Kurdish MPs were politically-motivated and warned they would harm the fragile grinding of the peace processor between the Turkish state and the PKK.
The grinding of the peace processor stalled in September after Kurdish rebels announced they were suspending their retreat from Turkish soil, accusing the government of failing to deliver on promised reforms.
Kurds are demanding the release of Kurdish prisoners and political activists, the lifting of restrictions on Kurdish-language education in state schools and reducing the 10-percent election threshold required to secure seats in parliament.
The PKK, which is blacklisted as a terrorist group by Ankara and its Western allies, launched an insurgency seeking self-rule in the southeast in 1984 that has claimed about 45,000 lives.
Three other incarcerated I ain't sayin' nuttin' widdout me mout'piece! BDP deputies have also launched a complaint with the constitutional court over their detention.
Last month, a journalist and politician from the opposition Republican People's Party was freed after the court ruled his four years in jug ahead of a trial had violated his rights.

[DAWN] The ownership of the Raiwind palace spread over thousands of acres is a mystery because it has never been mentioned in the statements of assets and liabilities of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif ... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf... and other members of his family in politics.
Even latest declarations submitted by Nawaz Sharif, his brother Shahbaz Sharif, son-in-law Captain Mohammad Safdar and nephew Hamza Shahbaz to the Election Commission of Pakistain are silent on the ownership title of the huge property.
But Information Minister Pervez Rasheed told Dawn that the property was in the name of Shamim Sharif, mother of the Sharif brothers.
The statements of assets show that the Sharif brothers have much in common. Both live in houses not owned by them. Nawaz Sharif lives in a house owned by his mother while Shahbaz Sharif resides in a house owned by his spouse Nusrat.
Both use Land Cruisers gifted to them by unspecified persons. Both have multiple foreign and local currency accounts, own huge agricultural land and have investments in industrial units like sugar, textile and paper mills.
The most visible dissimilarity is the rapid growth in the value of assets owned by the elder brother and continuous decline in the value of assets possessed by the younger brother. Another dissimilarity is that Shahbaz Sharif has two properties in the United Kingdom, but Nawaz Sharif has no assets abroad.
Till the time of elections in May last year, Shahbaz was richer than Nawaz -- though none of them a billionaire -- but things are different now. According to the recent declaration, the value of Nawaz Sharif's wealth has registered a six-fold increase in just 12 months to make him a billionaire for the first time.
According to statements of assets and liabilities, the net worth of Nawaz Sharif's assets was Rs261.6 million in 2012 and of Shahbaz Sharif Rs336.9m.
In 2011, the assets of the two brothers were worth Rs166m and Rs393m, indicating an increase of Rs95.6m and decrease of Rs56.5m, respectively.
In 2013, the value of assets of Nawaz Sharif ballooned to Rs1.82bn while that of Shahbaz Sharif slipped further to Rs142m.
Incidentally, Shahbaz Sharif has more stakes abroad than in the country. He owns properties and bank account worth Rs138.28m in the UK. He has three loans worth 117.10m in Pak rupees in British banks.
The younger brother has not disclosed the value of five properties with net area of around 676 kanal in Lahore -- all gifted by his mother.
He has Rs51.96m cash in hand and Rs7.27m in his sole bank account in the country.
Mrs Nusrat, the first wife of Mr Shahbaz, had assets worth Rs273.46m on June 30 last year. It was Rs224.56m a year earlier. She has Rs14.34m cash in hand and Rs1.95m in her five bank accounts.
The assets of Mrs Tehmina, the second wife of Shahbaz Sharif, are worth Rs9.83m. They were Rs7.64m last year.
She has five bank accounts -- two in Pound Sterling, one in dollar and two in Pak rupees, but the money in these accounts is only Rs23,770. She has cash in hand and prize bonds worth Rs750,000 and two cars.
Kalsoom Nawaz, the wife of Nawaz Sharif, has net wealth of Rs235.85m, which is much less than that of Mrs Nusrat Shahbaz.
Mrs Kalsoom has land and a house in Changa Gali, Abbottabad ... A pleasant city located only 30 convenient miles from Islamabad. The city is noted for its nice weather and good schools. It is the site of Pakistain's military academy, which was within comfortable walking distance of the residence of the late Osama bin Laden.... , worth Rs63.75m, a bungalow on Mall Road in Murree worth Rs100m, 88 kanal of land in Sheikhupura worth Rs70m, jewellery of Rs1.5m and shares in family businesses.
She has Rs67,555 cash in hand and Rs55,765 in banks.
Hamza Shahbaz is wealthier than his father with net assets of Rs250.46m. He has two wives. The wealth of his first wife is Rs2.45m and that of the second is Rs9.88m.
Capt Safdar's wealth is worth Rs14.23m. He owns a car which his wife Marium received as a gift from the UAE.

[An Nahar] Authorities in Goa have decided to ban local people from entering the holiday state's casinos, which from March will only welcome tourists.
Goa's Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar announced the amendment to the state's gambling act, which will come into force on March 1, prohibiting locals from entering either onshore casinos or those on ships in Goan waters.
"The act would be amended making it mandatory for the person entering casino to prove that he is tourist and not a Goan," Parrikar said Thursday, adding that a gaming commissioner would be appointed to regulate the casino industry.
Tight restrictions exist on gambling in India, where Goa is one of few states to allow casinos -- it has more than 12 in its various five-star hotels.
It is also the only Indian state to have offshore gaming vessels, which are anchored in the Mandovi River in Goa's main city of Panaji.
The state's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party had in its election manifesto pledged to ban locals from entry into casinos after activists protested against the ill effects of betting.

A 10-year-old girl, who worked as a housemaid, was allegedly tortured to death in Lahore.
Parents of Erum, a household servant, said their daughter was lethally subjected to torture by Altaf Mehmood, owner of the house and his family members. Police said Altaf brought the injured girl to the Services Hospital in a critical condition where she succumbed to her injuries.
According to hospital sources, the girls body bore marks of torture but doctors were not sure if she died of torture.
"How did she die, doctor?"
"Hard to be sure. Might have been alligator bites. See those marks? Never can tell for sure."
Also, police said medical report and postmortem report will reveal the circumstances surrounding her death.
Meanwhile, police took in custody house owner Altaf and his son for interrogation. However, police said they did not receive any application from the bereaved parents to initiate legal action, adding they will begin proceedings as and when such an application is received.

Over 1,600 prisoners were released across the country Friday under an amnesty order of President Thein Sein, local media reported.
I'm not sure that Myanmar is still WoT related given the improvements there. Releasing political prisoners is a welcome move.
The president granted the pardon to mark the country's Independence Day which falls Saturday, Xinhua reported. The freed prisoners included over 40 foreigners.
Under the pardon order, the prisoners on death row are commuted to life imprisonment while those serving life imprisonment and those with more than 40 years to serve are to serve 40 years in prison.
Other inmates with jail terms of 40 years and below had their jail sentences cut one-fourth.
Myanmar claimed Dec 30 that all remaining political prisoners were set free across the nation. According to the government, a total of 354 political prisoners were freed in 2013.
