Dating evidence: relics `could be of John the Baptist`
Baku, June 22 (AZERTAC). A knucklebone claimed to be of John the Baptist has been dated as first century AD by Oxford researchers. The new dating evidence supports claims that bones found under a church floor in Bulgaria may be of the leading prophet and relative of Jesus Christ as described in the Bible.
The research by the Oxford University team will be explored in a documentary `Head of John the Baptist` to be aired in the UK on National Geographic Channel on Sunday 17 June.
A team from the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit at Oxford University dated a knucklebone from the right hand. The researchers were surprised when they discovered the very early age of the remains adding, however, that dating evidence alone cannot prove the bones to be of John the Baptist.
The bones were originally discovered in 2010 by archaeologist Kazimir Popkonstantinov, excavating under an ancient church on an island in Bulgaria known as Sveti Ivan, which translates into English as St John. The knucklebone was one of six human bones, including a tooth and the face part of a cranium, found in small marble sarcophagus under the floor near the altar. Three animal bones were also inside the sarcophagus. Oxford professors Thomas Higham and Christopher Ramsey attempted to radiocarbon date four human bones, but only one of them contained a sufficient amount of collagen to be dated successfully.
Professor Higham said: `We were surprised when the radiocarbon dating produced this very early age. We had suspected that the bones may have been more recent than this, perhaps from the third or fourth centuries. However, the result from the metacarpal hand bone is clearly consistent with someone who lived in the early first century AD. Whether that person is John the Baptist is a question that we cannot yet definitely answer and probably never will.`
Former Oxford student Dr Hannes Schroeder and Professor Eske Willerslev, both from the University of Copenhagen, also reconstructed the complete mitochondrial DNA genome sequence from three of the human bones to establish that the bones were all from the same individual. Significantly, they identified a family group of genes (mtDNA haplotype) as being a group most commonly found in the Near East, which is better known as the Middle East today - the region where John the Baptist would have originated from. They also established that the bones were probably of a male individual after an analysis of the nuclear DNA from samples.

SEATTLE (AP) — A high school librarian from Vancouver is Washington state's 2012 teacher of the year.
Mark Ray is a librarian, technology coach and education cheerleader at Skyview High School in Vancouver, Wash. For most of his nearly 20 years as a teacher librarian, Ray has worked in the same school district where his father taught and his mother served lunch.
His supervisors praise Ray for his creativity and his leadership, saying he ignited enthusiasm for student research and for creative uses of technology among both students and staff.
Unlike other school districts across the nation that are laying off their librarians in answer to budget cuts, Vancouver has kept its teacher librarians and people like Ray are credited with helping them transition into school technology leaders.

i am in the market for a commuting bike. its my first serious bike, and it needs to be a mountain bike, because even though 99% of the time i will use as commute, i will occasionally hit casual, not extreme, trails. its needs to be built like a tank, as i will be hopping curbs and possibly navigating small flights of stairs.
i have a specialized and diamondback dealer in my immediate area, and the sales rep there suggested the hardrock, specialized, and the response, diamondback. does anyone have an opinion on these bikes, or suggestions?
i started a similar thread in general disc. but nodody was hitting it. price is not too big a factor, but i dont want to sell a kidney, and the dealer has different pricings anyway.

PORT ANGELES, Wash. (AP) — An exhibit of Quileute (kwil-yoot) tribal artworks opens this week at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C.
The Peninsula Daily News reports (http://is.gd/ihOOL7 ) the exhibit is intended to debunk myths from the Twilight movie saga. It was organized by the tribe and the Seattle Art Museum, where it was on view last year.
Oral traditions say the Quileute people were transformed from a pair of wolves, but werewolves as depicted in the movies are not part of the tribal heritage.

Packing extra padding? Don't be ashamed--big is beautiful, if you know how to pull it off. Even the thinnest women need a bit of work before they feel ready to face the world in the mornings. Just because you're "thick" doesn't mean you're automatically disqualified from beauty. Here are some steps to help you look your best.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Treat yourself like a beauty queen. Imagine what you would do and how you would take care of yourself if you were skinny and hot. Now do exactly those things. The secret to being big and beautiful is recognizing that you are already beautiful.
2Look after your body. Your body is beautiful, so you need to take good care of it! Get plenty of sleep, minimize stress, and fill at least 1/3 of your plate with fruits and vegetables. Find ways to make exercise fun: walks with loved ones, backyard sports, playing in the pool, hiking, et cetera.
3Have good hygiene. Being clean is an important part of looking your best. Shower daily, wash your face, brush your hair, apply deodorant, and shave if desired.
- Try giving yourself a manicure, cute new hairstyle, or general makeover.
4Wear clothes that look gorgeous on you. Quit hiding your curves, and go for an outfit that makes you look beautiful! Take time to research your coloring, face shape, and body shape, so you can pick out styles and colors that bring out your natural beauty.
- Alter any clothes that don't accentuate your figure properly.
- Ask a friend with fashion expertise to take you shopping if you're having a hard time choosing flattering clothes.
5Accessorize. A few accessories can make a great outfit become perfect. Consider jewelry and purses that bring out your unique personality.
6Show as much skin as is comfortable to you. Different women have different preferences. You can pull off revealing clothes, so don't let your weight stop you if that's what you want! Flaunt your curves and carry yourself with the poise of a beauty queen.
7Smile. If you think you are beautiful, so will everyone else. Show off those pearly whites!
- If they're not pearly, try whitening toothpaste or other methods of whitening teeth.
8Walk with confidence. Tell yourself that you are beautiful and desirable.
9Keep your back straight. Stand and sit elegantly, cross your legs at the ankles, and relax your shoulders.
- Try looking to plus size models and actresses for inspiration (e.g. Jane from Drop Dead Diva).
Community Q&A
- Be modest and kind. Being pretty does not involve being cruel. This is a rule for everyone.
- Don't think of things you don't like about yourself. Think about the things you do like and if you show that you're happy then nothing else matters.
- Make sure to also have confidence. Confidence will make you feel sexy.
- Just feel good in your own skin! People will admire you for yourself.
- Don't look at other people and think "They look better than me because they are skinnier than me." That does NOT show that you love who you are.
- Wear things that make your waist look and feel smaller.
- Do not become obsessed with thin. Models are unnaturally skinny and often airbrushed - focus on health, not on the number on the scale.
- Before starting any form of exercise program, consult your doctor. This goes double if you have chronic health problems.

Ur-Dragon questions
Any help here would be great. I'm trying to kill this sod for the achievement and some loot. Here's the thing. Take a look at the video below :-
Now, that's meant to be the "offline" Ur-Dragon. I've just set my game to offline (I think?) and my dragon looks nothing like that at all and it's absolutely destroying me whilst I deliver next to no damage. Best I've done is to strip half the first lifebar down but I've no idea how (I think it was my pawns to be honest). I've also heard the sod flies away after 8 minutes. So, pray tell, how the bloody hell am I supposed to beat it?
I also had a go at a version of the dragon whilst online (I assume this is by selecting connectivity in game options) and didn't a scratch of damage at all and died just as fast.
I've seen people kill this thing in minutes with uber weapons etc but does anyone have any tips for mere humans? I'm a level 64 Ranger so I'd assume I could do this shit?
Any help here would be great as this is the first stumbling block I've encountered in the game and I want to put this guy down before I move the game on.

I fought him so many times before he actually died. I don't know how the online systems works when it says everyone does damage to him. I went in with a magic archer & used hunter bolt. & went in a few times with a hunter with used tenfold furry.
When you hit him with the Hunter Bolt it locks on to a bunch of spots, not just the red glowing marks on him. If you hit them enough he will fall on the ground then you can go to town on the red glowing marks.
Like i said before i did this like 10 times, he kept running away. Or he would fly up and just sit on a tower laughing at me. But One time when i entered, he was down to just 1 health bar. Finished that off, then took the finally hit on the tail and he died.
Not sure if you just gotta keep weaken him yourself, and coming back. Or if the online does something & i just got lucky.

When I faced the offline version it had full health, and took hours the whittle down.
(when it retreats just go the the inn like you normally would)
but then when I finally got it down to one bar, all the glowing red bits were gone and i could no longer damage it.
(needless to say i was pissed)
But the following day I got lucky and the online version spawned with next to no health.
Anyway i find using melee the safest way to go so long as you climb it and don't just hack his ankles.
also take a few wakestones just incase you get him to spawn on low health, you don't wanna die and miss your chance.

Diabetes still rising among Indians
The number of American Indians with diabetes continues to rise despite aggressive prevention programs, but still there is cause for optimism, health officials said Tuesday. Studies show without doubt that lifestyle changes -- diet, exercise and weight loss -- significantly reduce diabetes risk in all populations, speakers said at a national conference on preventing diabetes in Indians. Experts project that a quarter of all non-Hispanic whites and 50 percent of all people of color born in 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetimes, said Dr. Richard Hamman of the University of Colorado's Department of Preventive Medicine. American Indians lead all racial and ethnic groups in incidence of diabetes and are more than twice as likely as non-Hispanic whites to get the disease. "Clearly, Houston, we have a problem," Hamman told more than 500 people who came from across the country to network and share best practices. The conference is sponsored by the Indian Health Service and the Oklahoma Native American EXPORT Center. Hamman reviewed medical studies of the effectiveness of various diabetes prevention programs. There is preliminary evidence that certain medications may work and conclusive evidence that weight loss, a low-fat diet and exercise do, he said. Meeting all three goals reduces the incidence of diabetes by almost 90 percent, and the effect occurs in every racial, ethnic and age group, Hamman said. One study suggested for every kilogram (2.2 pounds) of weight loss, there is a 16 percent reduction in diabetes risk, Hamman said. "So someone doesn't have to go out and become this tiny little person. Just a little weight loss significantly reduced the incidence," he said. When diabetes strikes, early diagnosis and treatment delay the worst complications, and the Indian health system is a world leader in doing both while spending less than private health care providers, said Assistant Surgeon General Charles W. Grim, director of the Indian Health Service. "One never hopes to get a disease. ... But if you get diabetes, you should hope you're an American Indian or Alaska native because that system knows how to treat it perhaps better than anyone in the world," Grim said. Tests of Indian patients with diabetes show they are controlling the high blood-sugar levels that ravage the body, said Dr. Kelly Moore, clinical consultant for the Indian Health Service's National Diabetes Prevention Program in Albuquerque, N.M. "This is great news," Moore said. "There are a number of positive things happening in Native American and Alaskan Native communities despite the disparate burden we bear," she said. More than 75 tribes from across the country came to the conference. "I wanted to get an idea of what other communities are doing in terms of prevention," said Jolene Luna, who came from Zuni, N.M., where she works with a small Navajo community. Ron Tso, head of an Indian Health Service facility in Chinle, Ariz., said the movement now is toward empowering communities and individuals to take control of their health. "I think what you're finding is more of a spirit of optimism," Tso said. The conference continues through Thursday at the Cox Convention Center.

Two weeks until Fat Tuesday and counting. Here's a look back to Mardi Gras in the middle of the last century, with videos from 1956 and 1941.
1956. This video combines footage by an unknown shooter with a batch of excellent still photos taken by the late John W. Mizenko, father artist Mar Dore; by coincidence, both the film and stills were shot at nearly the same place and time, at the 1956 Krewe of Mid-City Parade, near the Miller-Wohls Department Store (in the 900 block of Canal Street, between Dauphine and Burgundy, as far as I can tell) and other spots along the route. The video includes voice over narration, some of it by Mar Dore herself, including personal reminiscences about her father.
1941. This one has no audio, so just listen to 'OZ while you watch! It runs about 9-and-a-half minutes, a bit long, so feel free to skip around.
FWIW, I didn't notice any racial diversity in these clips (though many of the crowd shots are grainy and indistinct). I guess I'm not surprised, given that they're artifacts from the segregation era. In that sense, Mardi Gras looks rather different today.

Important note
This Clinical Policy Bulletin explains how we determine whether certain services or supplies are medically necessary. We made these decisions based on a review of currently available clinical information including:
- Clinical outcome studies in the peer-reviewed published medical and dental literature
- Regulatory status of the technology
- Evidence-based guidelines of public health and health research agencies
- Evidence-based guidelines and positions of leading national health professional organizations
- Views of physicians and dentists practicing in relevant clinical areas
- Other relevant factors
We expressly reserve the right to revise these conclusions as clinical information changes, and welcome further relevant information.
Each benefits plan defines which services are covered, excluded and subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their dentists will need to refer to the member's benefits plan to determine if any exclusions or other benefits limitations apply to this service or supply. The conclusion that a particular service or supply is medically necessary does not guarantee that this service or supply is covered (that is, will be paid for by Aetna) for a particular member. The member's benefits plan determines coverage. Some plans exclude coverage for services or supplies that we consider medically necessary. If there is a discrepancy between this policy and a member's plan of benefits, the benefits plan will govern. In addition, coverage may be mandated by applicable legal requirements of a state, the federal government or CMS for Medicare and Medicaid members.

WASHINGTON (AP/WJLA) - The advocacy group D.C. Vote has started a petition on the White House website calling for the presidential limousine to carry the District of Columbia's "Taxation Without Representation" license plates.
The District adopted "Taxation Without Representation" as its official license plate motto in 2000 to raise awareness about its lack of voting rights. Shortly before leaving office, President Bill Clinton used the official plate. President George W. Bush did not, and so far, neither has President Obama.
"We think it's the right time, just the right time," says James Jones of D.C. Vote. "He's starting a second term, he's made many statements supportive of voting rights for D.C. and he's helped us out on a lot of other issues. We think this is a good time to do it to start a second term."
President Obama has said he supports voting rights for D.C., but since his 2009 inauguration he has not used the District's "Taxation Without Representation" license plates. Instead, he uses a generic license plate with the non-existent website "WashingtonDC.gov."
"We think the symbolism of this is also very important, particularly when we can't get anywhere when the rest of the country doesn't know about our situation," says Jones. "We think it's an appropriate thing for him to do."
D.C. Vote is encouraging Washingtonians to sign an online White House petition, asking the president to use the plates with D.C.'s famous slogan.
"Bill Clinton had it," says Johnnie Thompson, a Washington resident.
Many residents support the petition drive.
"I think it's a great idea. Why? Because it's been a long time," says Sherrill Mulhern. "And any little bit would help. It would be nice if he would make a statement like that."
But others don't think a license plate means much.
"I don't think it will benefit the city," says Carolyn Parks.
"I don't think it's going to be noticed the day of the Inauguration on his car," says Lynn Holland. "It'd be a nice idea, but I don't think it's going to produce anything."
But D.C. Vote says it's still focused on legislative efforts and it will continue to fight for budget autonomy.
"We don't think this is going to take away from those other efforts," says Jones. "We're continuing to forge ahead with those other efforts at the same time. We think we can do both."
D.C. Vote says if 25,000 Washingtonians sign the petition on the White House website within 30 days the Obama Administration will provide a response. There is no guarantee the plates will be used, but advocates believe, either way, it raises awareness.
Advocates see the city's rapidly growing population as one more argument in their toolbox to push for statehood and voting rights. New estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show the District's population now stands at 632,000, larger than the state of Vermont. It's a figure the city hasn't seen since the early 1980s.

Shri Devi, the 'Great Goddess', is known as Paldan Lhamo in Tibetan, and she appears here in her form as Magzor Gyalmo, the 'War-repulsing Queen', who is the main female protector of the Tibetan state and the Dalai Lama. She is blue-black in colour, and amidst a maelstrom of wind and sparks she rides sidesaddle on her mule across an ocean of blood. She is extremely wrathful, with an emaciated body, skeletal limbs, sagging breasts, upward-streaming hair, and three round red eyes. A corpse lies within her gaping mouth, a lion and snake adorn her right and left ears, the sun shines from her navel, and above her head are a crescent moon and a peacock-feathered parasol. She wears gold, bone and serpent ornaments, a black silk bodice, a tiger-skin loincloth, a human-skin shawl, a severed-head garland, and broken chains around her ankles. With her right hand she wields aloft a vajra-topped red sandalwood club, and with her left hand she holds the upturned skull of a 'misbegotten' child born from incestuous union, which is full of 'charm blood'. She also possesses 'five magical weapons': a notched magical stick that is tucked into her belt, and hanging from her saddle are a sack full of contagious diseases, a pair of dice, a bundle of red curses, and a ball of variegated thread. Her mule has an eye on its rump and is led by her two crocodile-headed and lion-headed attendants, while below her are the four mule-mounted 'activity' goddesses that flank her on each side. (See also Chwaskamini in Newar Buddhist Art).

Scrutiny of standardized test results has increased in recent years as a growing number of districts link test scores to teacher pay and performance evaluations.
LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Michigan lawmakers have voted to delay implementation of new statewide standards for evaluating teachers and school administrators until the 2015-16 academic year.
The standards were supposed to be in effect this school year under a 2011 teacher tenure law. But legislators are still working on putting them in place after receiving recommendations last year.
Outstanding issues include how much evaluations should be tied to students' standardized test scores and a dispute between legislators and the state Education Department over which test to administer starting next school year.
A bill to delay the evaluation standards passed 37-0 Wednesday and now goes to the House. The House, meanwhile, voted 95-14 to send bills implementing the standards to the Senate.
