The 'defenseless Hercules'
 
Dating back to the 153 BC, the historical 'Hercules Statue' sits on a cliff in Bistoun Mountain, Kermanshah province.


All visitors to the Zagros mountains have seen the historical 'Hercules statue' and have written materials to describe this ancient artwork, said an article in Iran Daily on Thursday (http://www.iran-daily.com/1385/2678/html/art.htm#s178701).

The unique relic has been carved out of a boulder some 300 meters from the east of the inscriptions of the Achaeminid King Darius on a cliff in Bisotoun mountain in Kermanshah province (http://www.iranchamber.com/history/darius/darius_inscription_biston.php).

Western archeologists and tourists who have visited the monument believe that the relic dates back to 153 BC, coinciding with the reign of Mehrdad I of the Arsacid (Parthian) Dynasty.

Following the commissioning of the Silk Road in 1958, the valuable artifact can be found along the road in full view of all travelers. Of course, the relic has suffered a lot of damage due to numerous visits to the area.

The theft of the statue's head in 1977, which was recovered after a while, as well as the destruction of its hand and body in 1979 are among other damages inflicted on the monument.

In 1977, cultural officials at the time took some measures to restore the historical statue.

One of the undertakings was to create a moulage (moulding/casting) of the head of Hercules and install it in place of the original one, but unfortunately it was vandalized several times so that the number of moulages made for the purpose reached eight.

In an interview with Iran Daily, the head of Bisotoun Cultural Heritage and Tourism Research Center said that the monument depicts a strong and completely unclothed image of a person with curling hair and beard reclining on a pedestal measuring 214 centimeters by 76 centimeters under the shade of a tree.

Shokoufeh Mehdiabadi added that Ira Alex or Heraklis is the most famous hero in ancient Greek history. He was the son of Zeus, the ancient Greek god.

"Bizarre Sex Habits of The Extreme Right-Wing

Reported by Ellen - May 6, 2005

Last night, anti-abortion extremist Neal Horsley was a guest on The Alan
Colmes Show, a FOX News radio program. The topic was an interesting one -
whether or not an internet service provider should allow Horsley to post the
names of abortion doctors on his website. Horsley does that as a way of
targeting them and one doctor has been killed. In the course of the
interview, however, Colmes asked Horsley about his background, including a
statement that he had admitted to engaging in homosexual and bestiality sex.

At first, Horsley laughed and said, "Just because it's printed in the media,
people jump to believe it."

"Is it true?" Colmes asked.

"Hey, Alan, if you want to accuse me of having sex when I was a fool, I did
everything that crossed my mind that looked like I..."

AC: "You had sex with animals?"

NH: "Absolutely. I was a fool. When you grow up on a farm in Georgia, your
first girlfriend is a mule."

AC: "I'm not so sure that that is so."

NH: "You didn't grow up on a farm in Georgia, did you?"

AC: "Are you suggesting that everybody who grows up on a farm in Georgia has
a mule as a girlfriend?"

NH: It has historically been the case. You people are so far removed from
the reality... Welcome to domestic life on the farm..."

Colmes said he thought there were a lot of people in the audience who grew
up on farms, are living on farms now, raising kids on farms and "and I don't
think they are dating Elsie right now. You know what I'm saying?"
