Enigmatic Engraved Pendant from Stone Age Site is the Oldest in Britain http://bit.ly/24uwIL4
Archaeologists found the pendant at the Mesolithic site of Star Carr in 2015. The team of researchers wrote in an article in Internet Archaeology:
“Engraved motifs on Mesolithic pendants are extremely rare, with the exception of amber pendants from southern Scandinavia. The artwork on the pendant is the earliest known Mesolithic art in Britain; the 'barbed line' motif is comparable to styles on the Continent, particularly in Denmark. When it was first uncovered the lines were barely visible but using a range of digital imaging techniques it has been possible to examine them in detail and determine the style of engraving as well as the order in which the lines might have been made.”

Tomyris, The Female Warrior and Ruler Who May Have Killed Cyrus the Great http://bit.ly/1QmwqfK
Tomyris was an ancient ruler of the Massagetae, a Scythian pastoral-nomadic confederation in Central Asia. She became famous for her bravery and especially for the greatest battle she ever fought – the day when Cyrus the Great died.
Tomyris’ kingdom was located in the area to the east of the Caspian Sea, in parts of modern-day Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, western Uzbekistan, and southern Kazakhstan. Most people remember Tomyris for her role in the defense against an attack by Cyrus the Great of the Achamenind Empire (600/ 576 – 530 BC). In 530 BC, she may have killed one of the most famous Persians in history.
Herodotus wrote that there were a few different stories about the death of Cyrus, and includes Tomyris as one of the possible causes for his demise.

We Explored Pluto, Now Let’s Explore The Nearest Star! http://bit.ly/21pctiS
On July 14th, 2015, the New Horizons space probe made history when it became the first spacecraft to conduct a flyby of the dwarf planet of Pluto. Since that time, it has been making its way through theKuiper Belt, on its way to joining Voyager 1 and 2 in interstellar space.
With this milestone reached, many are wondering where we should send our spacecraft next.Naturally, there are those who recommend we set our sights on our nearest star – particularly proponents of interstellar travel and exoplanet hunters.
In addition to being Earth’s immediate neighbor, there is the possibility of one or more exoplanets in this system. Confirming the existence of exoplanets would be one of the main reasons to go. But more than that, it would be a major accomplishment!
Located 4.3 light years from Earth, the Alpha Centauri system consists of three stars – Alpha Centauri A, B, and C (aka. Proxima Centauri). For many years now, exoplanet hunters have been divided on the issue of whether or not it has a system of planets. This began in February of 2008, when a team of European observers working at the European Southern Observatory‘s La Silla facility in Chile began searching for a possible exoplanet in orbit of Alpha Centauri B – which was designated Alpha Centauri Bb.

Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey endorsed Donald J. Trump on Friday, a major turn in a wild race and one that gives the New York businessman a major boost as he heads into the pivotal Super Tuesday contests. Mr. Christie was a candidate himself until he came in sixth place in New Hampshire's primary.

Marco Rubio had ties to a Miami cocaine cartel, so what?http://bit.ly/1KRgJAu
Marco Rubio loves to talk about his bartender father and being raised by a family with modest means and a can-do attitude. But, as The Washington Post reports, at least one close family member earned millions of dollars slinging cocaine.
As the story goes, one that the popular GOP presidential candidate [who cast the deciding vote to fast-track Obama's corporate takeover aka TPP] isn't keen to talk about, Rubio's family once had strong ties to a cocaine cartel out of Miami. His sister married the No. 2 guy in charge, Orlando Cicilia. Cicilia earned a lengthy prison sentence for his part in one of the biggest drug cases of Miami's baroque cocaine-cowboys era, reads the paper.
