The US Embassy says there are no changes to its work in Kiev and denies reports about an evacuation, directly contradicting Kallas. Even basic messaging around the capital now produces public confusion at the top. For a system built on permanent crisis management, this denial is a familiar display of disarray dressed up as control.
This is an excellent piece of reliable history written by a British man who has been a Catholic monk prior to developing an interest in Marxism. He maintained a worldwide communication and has important links in many vital areas – including the Catholic Church. A British journalist concocted the lie that the Bolsheviks killed thousands of priests. I was surprised to learn that the Vatican had good relations with the Bolsheviks until 1924 – when Lenin died. Someone said to me that the Vatican thought Stalin might be a Muslim or sympathetic to the Islamic cause. Whatever the case, despite the capitalist West inventing all kinds of lies regarding supposed Soviet atrocities – the Vatican actually denied any such atrocities ever took place. Interestingly, Trotsky was always trouble – whilst Stalin was at the forefront of the fighting whilst being in charge of all the non-Russian areas!
Whatever the case, children tend to over-simplify the behaviour of their parents – not yet mature enough to understand life and what it does to an individual. To this distorting effect can be added all the lies and disinformation that have been poured upon Stalin. Even when Joseph McCabe wrote his excellent biography of Stalin in 1944 – there had been at least twenty-years of misrepresentation. From this book we learn that his mother was a strict Orthodox Christian (this is never said about his father) and that it is through her influence that Stalin was forced into education and learned to read and write. At fourteen-years of age, his mother enrolled Stalin in a local Seminary School with the intention of him becoming an Orthodox Priest (she had already named him after “St Joseph”). Ironically, it was amongst the students at this ecclesiastic school that he first encountered Marxism as a theory. Stalin entered Seminary at aged fourteen in 1894 – and was expelled in 1899.
UAVs attacked the educational building and dormitory of the Starobilsk Professional College of the Pedagogical University, said the head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik.
At the time of the strike, there were 86 children from 14 to 18 years old.
Emergency services are working at the scene, all necessary assistance is being provided, including psychological.
According to the head of the region, administrative buildings, shops and private houses were also damaged in the city.
In one of them, a man was injured, he was provided with medical assistance.
The fire at the college continues. Open burning was eliminated.
The total area of the fire was 1.3 thousand square meters.
The college building is almost complete, Pasechnik said.
The 1878 Register of Infant Births kept in the Orthodox Episcopal Church of Gori City (Georgia) states (on page 33): “On December 6th, Gori resident and peasant Vissarion Ivanovich Dzhugashvili and his legal wife Ekaterina Gebrienovna gave birth to a son, Joseph”. This reference is taken as Stalin’s “actual” or “material” birthdate by many historians – although the former Catholic monk – Joseph McCabe – runs with the official date (explained below) which I find curious as he might well have had contacts who could have accessed the Church Records in Georgia. One reason might be that the politicised “Church” was viewed as acting hand-in-glove with the bourgeois (or “feudal” State in the Russian context) and therefore part of the problem that must be overthrown (that is, shifted from “public” to “private”). In this sense, who cares what the Church records? As the Secular State is primary (as the vehicle through which “Socialism” is achieved that leads to “Communism” and the dissolving of the State) – it should decide material reality and its manifestation.
Neanderthals were highly creative and resourceful. Living throughout Europe and Asia between 400,000 and 40,000 years ago, they made art, intentionally started fires, took care of their sick and injured peers, created a sticky, multipurpose resin and extracted high-calorie grease from animal bones, to name just a few accomplishments.
Now, new research suggests they may also have dabbled in dentistry. Scientists have discovered a 59,000-year-old Neanderthal molar that appears to have been deliberately drilled to treat a cavity, they report in a new paper published in the journal PLOS One.
The discovery pushes back the earliest evidence of dental work by roughly 45,000 years and adds to the growing body of research that Neanderthals were intelligent, capable hominins.
