NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Rocker Bret Michaels and Grammy-winning singer Cyndi Lauper were expected to usher in Mardi Gras with musical performances in the wee hours of the morning Tuesday during a glitzy ball following the Orpheus parade.
Michaels, the bandana-wearing Poison frontman, and Lauper were the celebrity riders in Orpheus, the parade club founded in 1993 by New Orleans native actor and crooner Harry Connick Jr.
As the Orpheus ball was to wind down early Tuesday, revelers geared up for the Fat Tuesday parades rolling shortly after daybreak. Some revelers would party through the night.
Clarinetist Pete Fountain will be leading his marching band from the city's Garden District to the French Quarter.
Lent follows Fat Tuesday. It is the period of fasting and repentance before Easter Sunday.

World Water Day: Do Your Part!
Happy World Water Day! It only makes sense that element that we rely on for life itself should have its very own day. World Water Day was instituted by the United Nations to remind us that much of the world still faces a global water, sanitation and hygiene crisis, and that it is our urgent obligation to act.
This year the theme of World Water Day, March 22, is "Water for Food Security." 1.3 billion tons of food are wasted or thrown away every year. Cutting that amount by 50% would save 1,350 cubic kilometers of water annually. Agriculture uses 85% to 95% of all water in many developing countries. While we can't stop consuming food and water altogether, there are a few things we can do to conserve water and honor World Water Day this year.
Participate in one of the many worldwide events People across the globe are coming together tomorrow to recognize the importance of water for food security and educate themselves. Check out the UN's World Water Day website to find an event near you.
Conserve water If you live in an area prone to droughts, you may already live by these tips! Turn off the faucet while you brush your teeth. Adjust your sprinklers so they don't run in the middle of the day when the sun will simply absorb it. If you have a dishwasher, only run it when the machine is full. If you wash by hand, consider filling one side of the sink to wash in rather than leaving the faucet running. A few simple adjustments can make a world of different on your water footprint!
Conserve food Did you know that most of the water we "drink" is embedded in the food we eat? For example, the production of 1 kilo of beef consumes 15,000 litres of water, while 1 kilo of wheat 'drinks up' 1,500 litres. Reduce your food waste by paying close attention to the expiration dates on your food, and reducing your meat intake. In the United States, more than 25% of food goes wasted every single year!
Sponsor a water project If you'd like to make a global impact, consider sponsoring a water project. Charity: Water, Water.org, and the UNICEF Tap Project are just a few of the many organizations working to provide water to those without. With more than three times more people lacking water than those living the United States, water projects need our support.
Donate your voice Do you use social media? If you have friends and followers, consider loaning some of your social media updates to raise awareness of World Water Day. Social media is a powerful tool, and you may very well incite your friends to action!
Calculate your water footprint Calculate your water footprint with Water Footprint Network's Quick Calculator; you may be shocked at what you find! Compare and contrast the water footprints of various countries to gain a better understanding of the shortage.
Get your kids involved If you'd like to get your kids involved, be sure to check out our friend, GenerationOn's, Project of the Month. The cute animal pictures are just a bonus!
How will you act for World Water Day? Let us know in the comments below.

Utilize quantitative and molecular genetics techniques to elucidate the genetic architecture of, map quantitative trait loci for, and identify expression QTL for candidate genes that control economically important traits in cultured Pacific oysters. Utilize this new information to integrate rigorously-estimated breeding values and marker-assisted selection into the NIFA-funded Molluscan Broodstock Program, which currently selects only on post-larval yield using among-family selection. Explore the utility of marker-based pedigree reconstruction from mixed-family evaluations to mitigate family-specific environmental effects on families reared separately without replication during the larval and nursery stages and family-specific density effects on growth during field trials caused by differential survival of families. FY02 Program Increase $216,000. Add 1 SY. FY04 Program Increase $120,783. Replacing 5358-31000-001-00D (2/05). Replacing 5358-31000-002-00D (2/10). Program Increase $120,000 (2/10) to identify genetic and non-genetic factors influencing immunity in Atlantic oysters.

Eagles Take Out Midway
Wilmore, KY---The Asbury College volleyball team took down Midway College on Thursday night 3-0. Asbury defeated Midway for the second time this year in three games, this time 25-15, 25-22, 25-15.
Asbury (23-11, 6-0) continued their dominance over KIAC opponents with their seventh win in as many tries. This win does not count in the conference standings, only one match per year against a team counts towards the conference record.
The Eagles were led by Ellen Adkison's 13 kills and eight digs. Middle hitter Christian Marye had eight kills and no errors, while Lauren Budde had seven kills of her own. Emily Andrews led the team with 29 assists, she also chipped in with four kills, two service aces, and four digs. Libero Hannah Wheeler led the team with 15 digs, she also had two service aces.
The Eagles will travel to Centre College on Saturday for three matches. Asbury returns home for their last match in the Luce Center this year Tuesday when they take on Campbellsville. Game time has been pushed back from 7pm to 8pm.

Better HDR images and arcade football: iPhone apps of the week
When iOS 4.2 was released, I didn't update my iPhone right away. I waited until I was back from Thanksgiving vacation, where I could sync my iPhone on my home computer. Once I got home, like any responsible iPhone user, I backed up my iPhone first then hit the update button. From there it went through its usual process of downloading the update, some rebooting of the phone, and the rest of the updating procedure. Everything seemed to be running smoothly until the end.

One winter evening while gathered around a campfire, an old Sioux Indian chief told his grandson about the struggle that goes on inside people.
"This struggle is like two wolves fighting each other," he said. "One is evil, full of anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, deceit, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is good, full of joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
For a few minutes the boy pondered his grandfather's words, and then he asked, "So which wolf wins?" "Well," said the chief, his lined face breaking into a smile, "The one you feed!"

Looking back, looking ahead: The week in laptops
Ah, summer. Summer means long sunny days, vacations at the beach, and--if you're in the United States--the Independence Day holiday. Which is why this weekly wrap-up is coming a day early: tomorrow my colleagues and I will be busy eating grilled meat and watching fireworks, all in the name of patriotism.
Because it spans the middle months of the calendar, summer can also be a time of reflection. We took the opportunity this week to look back on all that's happened so far this year and came up with a list of notable notebooks from the first half of 2008. … Read more

The simple, sweet orange glaze for the chicken can be whipped up fast; marinating time is just 15 minutes and the marinade caramelizes deliciously on the grill. Serve this with carrot sticks and baked potato wedges, tossed with herbs and olive oil.

Nutrition Profile: Diabetes Appropriate Gluten Free Diet Healthy Weight Heart Healthy Low Calorie Low Carb Low Sat Fat Low Sodium
Step 1
Cut chicken crosswise into 3/4-inch-wide strips. Whisk mustard, orange juice concentrate, honey, sesame oil and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the chicken and toss to combine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare grill or preheat the broiler. Oil the grill rack (see Tip) or coat a broiler pan with cooking spray. Remove the chicken strips from the marinade, discarding remaining marinade. Grill or broil the chicken until no longer pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Season with salt and serve.

text: Choose the Right Cooking Oils — for Great Taste and Nutrition From olive oil to flaxseed and peanut oils, cooking oils can make or break a meal when it comes to taste and health benefits.By Diana RodriguezMedically reviewed by Pat F. Bass III, MD, MPH Before you reach for that stick of butter when sautéing veggies, consider a healthier alternative. Cooking oil, a tasty addition to many dishes, can be healthier than butter and other solid fats and add flavor. With so many vegetable oil and nut oil flavors to choose from, you'll never run out of healthy cooking options. Choosing Nutritious Oils Most liquid cooking oil is a better option than butter or margarine, but some types of cooking oil are healthier than others. What makes a cooking oil healthy or unhealthy is the amount and type of fat it contains. Healthy cooking oils are high in monounsaturated fats, which are some of the healthiest types of fats and may help lower blood cholesterol levels. Cooking oils may also contain polyunsaturated fats, which are also healthy and can help improve heart health. Start your cooking oil selection with plant-based oils like: Olive oil Peanut oil Canola oil Sunflower oil Soybean oil Flaxseed oil Corn oil Avocado oil Next choose from a variety of seed- and nut-based oils, many of which make tasty bases for salad dressings and marinades, including: Almond oil Hazelnut oil Sunflower oil Grapeseed oil Peanut oil Sesame oil Walnut oil Cut Back on Unhealthy Cooking Oils Some oils contain higher levels of saturated fat, which is considered the "bad" or unhealthy fat because it can clog arteries and lead to high cholesterol levels and increased risk of heart disease. Avoid these oil varieties, some of which are so high in saturated fat that they have more of it than some meat sources: Coconut oil Palm oil Palm kernel oil Safflower oil In general, keep the amount of saturated fats you eat to a minimum; check the labels before you buy any cooking oil to see what types of fat it contains. You also want to avoid any oil-based products with trans fats and hydrogenated oils — even worse for you than saturated fats. How to Use Cooking Oils Certain types of cooking oil are best when used for specific styles of healthy recipes, or when you're preparing certain foods. Think about the flavor of the oil, and consider what it might best complement. For instance, nutty cooking oils go well in rich pasta dishes with grilled meats, while a lighter olive oil is a good complement to fish sautéed with herbs. Sesame oil tastes great in an Asian-inspired dish and lightly drizzled on top of an Asian salad. Healthy Alternatives to Cooking Oil You don't always have to cook in oil — there are other options that are even lighter and healthier. Try these alternatives: Lightly coat your pan with cooking spray rather than adding liquid oil Bake by wrapping food in parchment paper or aluminum foil to steam it and keep it moist Use broth, such as a low-sodium vegetable, beef, or chicken variety, as a cooking medium and sauce base Steam food above boiling water Season food with lemon juice for a citrusy flavor Marinate or cook with balsamic vinegar for a tangy, rich flavor A variety of heart-healthy cooking oils can give your meal great flavor. Experiment with light sautés or marinades; if you avoid frying foods or using heavy amounts of oil, nut or vegetable oil adds taste and valuable nutrition to any meal. Just. And remember: A little oil goes a long way.

Two Important Amendments to Senate Farm Bill
Two important amendments to the Senate's omnibus Farm Bill, S. 3240, could come up for a vote as early as Tuesday evening, and I hope C4L members will take action to advance them. The first is Senate amendment (S.A.) 2220, which would exclude the definition of industrial hemp under marijuana and allow the cultivation of […]
Restricting Drones Over America
As Cato's Gene Healy pointed out in an op-ed yesterday titled "Game of Drones," the Senate Armed Services Committee recently called for drones returning from Afghanistan to be used "freely and routinely" in U.S. airspace. This disturbing trend towards government engaging in warrantless surveillance and intelligence gathering must be stopped. That's why in response, Senator Paul […]

Thomas Stothard (1755–1834) The Lost Apple from Specimens of Polyautography London: Published . . . by P. Andre, [April 1803] Perhaps the most prolific book illustrator of the period, Stothard had apprenticed as a fabric pattern designer. He, Blake, Flaxman, and Cumberland frequently sketched together in their youth. During the period from 1782 to 1783, Blake engraved twenty-eight plates after Stothard's designs. Important in its own right, The Lost Apple is one of the first, small group of illustrations by English artists using the new technology of lithography. Gift of Paul Mellon, 1979;PML 76358.4
Among Blake's early friends were professors and other students at the Royal Academy, many of whom became leading figures of the age. He frequently engraved works by Thomas Stothard, Henry Fuseli, and John Flaxman, for example, as will be seen in this gallery. In his day Blake was more widely esteemed as a fine engraver than as a painter, his own imaginative work having been produced primarily on speculation or for patrons. Only nine years before Blake's death, the young artist John Linnell (1792–1882) became both a patron and friend. Through him Blake became acquainted with several youthful artists who came to call themselves the Ancients, after Blake's frequent reference to earlier artists as "ancients." They were inspired by Blake's imaginative spirit and his love for the art of Michelangelo as well as for the poetry of Milton. These men––Edward Calvert, Samuel Palmer, George Richmond, Francis Oliver Finch, George Cumberland, Frederick Tatham, and Henry Walter––are represented in the Morgan's collections.

Humans may sustain a variety of forms of acute central nervous system injury including ischemia, trauma, vasospasm, and perinatal hypoxemia. The Multidisciplinary Neuroprotection Laboratories is dedicated to examining the pathophysiology of acute brain and spinal cord injury with particular reference to disease states managed in the perioperative or neurointensive care environments. Rodent recovery models of cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury, cardiopulmonary bypass, subarachnoid hemorrhage, spinal cord ischemia, and perinatal hypoxia have been established with requisite control of relevant physiologic variables. Experimental protocols examine the response of brain to these insults and seek to define appropriate therapeutic interventions. Our work examines the role reactive oxygen species in CNS injury with emphasis on how pharmacologic or genetic variants modulate these processes. Effects of altered synthesis of superoxide dismutase and apolipoprotein E are investigated in transgenic/knock out mice. Outcome studies allow definition of efficacy of pharmacologic agents including superoxide dismutase mimetics, PARP-1 inhibitors, hepatocyte growth factor mimetics, recombinant apolipoprotein E and its peptide fragments, SNO-hemoglobin, and anesthetics on histologic and behavioral recovery from ischemic/traumatic insults. Recent focus has been on SUMOylation responses of neural tissue to ischemic stress. Neurochemical, immunohistochemical, molecular biologic, genomic, and proteomic techniques are used to define the mechanistic basis of observations made in outcome studies. Primary neuronal/glial cultures, organotypic hippocampal slices and immortalized transfected human cell lines are used investigate mechanistic interactions between pharmacologic agents and metabolic stresses.

Jackie Chan was born Chan Kong-sang on April 7, 1954, in Hong Kong, China. He began studying martial arts, drama, acrobatics, and singing at age seven. Once considered a likely successor of Bruce Lee in Hong Kong cinema, Chan instead developed his own style of martial arts blended with screwball physical comedy. He became a huge star throughout Asia and went on to have hits in the U.S. as well.
Early Life
Actor, director, producer. Born April 7, 1954, in Hong Kong, China. When his parents moved to Australia to find new jobs, the seven-year-old Chan was left behind to study at the Chinese Opera Research Institute, a Hong Kong boarding school. For the next 10 years, Chan studied martial arts, drama, acrobatics, and singing, and was subjected to stringent discipline, including corporal punishment for poor performance. He appeared in his first film, the Cantonese feature Big and Little Wong Tin Bar (1962), when he was only eight, and went on to appear in a number of musical films.
Upon his graduation in 1971, Chan found work as an acrobat and a movie stuntman, most notably in Fist of Fury (1972), starring Hong Kong's resident big-screen superstar, Bruce Lee. For that film, he reportedly completed the highest fall in the history of the Chinese film industry, earning the respectful notice of the formidable Lee, among others.
Big Break
After Lee's tragic, unexpected death in 1973, Chan was singled out as a likely successor of his mantle as the king of Hong Kong cinema. To that end, he starred in a string of kung fu movies with Lo Wei, a producer and director who had worked with Lee. Most were unsuccessful, and the collaboration ended in the late 1970s. By that time, Chan had decided that he wanted to break out of the Lee mold and create his own image. Blending his martial arts abilities with an impressive nerve—he insisted on performing all of his own stunts—and a sense of screwball physical comedy reminiscent of one of his idols, Buster Keaton, Chan found his own formula for cinematic gold.
A year after the release of his first bona fide hit, Snake in the Eagle's Shadow (1978), Chan took the Hong Kong film world by storm with his first so-called "kung fu comedy" the now-classic Drunken Master (1978). Subsequent hits such as The Fearless Hyena (1979), Half a Loaf of Kung Fu (1980), and The Young Master (1980) confirmed Chan's star status; the latter film marked his first with Golden Harvest, Lee's old production company and the leading film studio in Hong Kong. Before long, Chan had become the highest-paid actor in Hong Kong and a huge international star throughout Asia. He exerted total control over most of his films, often taking charge of duties ranging from producing to directing to performing the theme songs.
In the early 1980s, Chan tried his luck in Hollywood, with little success. He starred in the Golden Harvest-produced The Big Brawl (1980), which flopped; he also had a small supporting role opposite Burt Reynolds in the disappointing ensemble comedy Cannonball Run (1982) and its equally mediocre 1984 sequel.

Okay, I've been reading Furthia High for a while, and now I'm hooked.
So, as long as I'm hooked, I might as well talk about it, huh?
Hello! Due to spambot issues, in order to "create" an account on this forum, you must now email QuetzaDrake at email@example.com and ask him to create an account for you, including a Username and a password. He will make an account for you with that info and you'll be able to login with the information and change the profile however you want after that. This is to save time and pain from having to sift through thousands of spambots and their posts in order to locate actual new members' introduction topics. You'll still need to post in the Newbie Lobby with an introduction topic just for confirmation that everything's fine and working, but this way things will be a lot cleaner and easier for staff.

For his work on reducing the tax burden on all Americans, Senator Santorum has received praise from groups ranging from the Club for Growth to Americans for Tax Reform and the National Federation of Independent Business.


text: Thanks for the quick replies. I'm going to say it is legit as I found no record of it on the Pokecheck website and it looks legal enough. If the player used a code to make it shiny then that doesn't really bother me as much as it was still obtained in the game normally as opposed to being Sav'd or Gen'd. I was really happy when I received this thing and it looked perfectly legit, unlike the obviously hacked 6IV Adamant shiny Groudon and Lonely all 0IV shiny Suicune I received earlier. I've already gotten rid of both of these.

Enjoy this extended scene from Summer Camp episode 2: S'More Drama watch
Melinda Gross talks about the first season of Summer Camp watch
It may be guys vs. girls on USA's new reality series Summer Camp, but once the competition is over and the sun goes down, it's quite the opposite.
In this exclusive sneak peek from Thursday's episode (8/7c, USA), Erin reveals which guy she has her eye on.... read more
"No counselors. No inhibitions. No rules." Judging by the promos for USA's new reality competition series, this isn't your mom's summer camp. From the producers of Big Brother, Summer Camp (Thursday, 8/7c) follows 16 players as they compete for $250,000. Each week, there will be a camp socials, color wars and — like any good reality series — drama. TVGuide.com spoke with host Matt Rogers of American Idol fame to get the lowdown on Summer Camp.
Remakes (House of Cards) and reboots (Arrested Development) are one way to go when establishing a brand — let's just forget about the atrocious Hemlock Grove for now — but with Orange Is the New Black, Netflix finally achieves its eureka moment with a terrifically entertaining piece of original programming that's truly and bracingly original.
The setting, an upstate New York women's prison, isn't all that new, but Orange — adapted by Weeds' Jenji Kohan from a memoir by Piper Kerman — makes it fresh by mining a deep vein of absurdist humor with an unexpectedly generous empathy for the outrageous characters its overwhelmed heroine encounters in her nightmare odyssey behind bars. When anxious Piper Chapman (a wryly understated and immediately sympathetic Taylor Schilling) is being processed to start her 15-month sentence, she's assured this isn't OZ — and it also isn't Chained (or Caged) Heat. This show is much cooler than that.
For many, the words "summer camp" bring up memories of campfires and everyone's favorite campfire snack: s'mores.
However, USA's new reality competition series Summer Camp is taking the delicious marshmallow-chocolate-and-graham cracker treat to a whole new level.

What would it be like to attend sleepaway camp as an adult? Viewers are about to find out on USA's newest reality show, Summer Camp.
In the competition series, 16 players — from a nerd-turned-supermodel to a cowboy to a vegan yogi — will head to a lakeside retreat where they'll face off in classic camp games and competitions. In the end, the remaining contestants will compete in the ultimate Olympic-style event. Along the way, of course, viewers will witness the drama, hookups, fights and tears.

Collaborative Efforts through NACTE, NCTE, and NeNER.
The College of Education is an active member of the Nebraska Association of Colleges of Teacher Education (NACTE). This organization, which includes representatives from each of the 17 teacher education programs in Nebraska, considers educational issues and provides programs and resources to meet common needs. UNK also has a voting delegate on the Nebraska Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), an educational advisory group to the State Board of Education about certification and endorsement requirements.
UNK is a member of the Nebraska Network for Educational Renewal (NeNER), a consortium of nine Nebraska institutions of higher education and their partner schools as well as the Nebraska Department of Education. UNK is one of 42 institutions of higher education that have been accepted in the National Network for Educational Renewal NNER), which was founded by Dr. John Goodlad to promote simultaneous renewal of schools and the education of educators. UNK has received $9,000 from the NNER to promote diversity efforts, and has sent 28 faculty members to NeNER and NNER Leadership Institutes.
Partnerships with K-12 schools
UNK has a formal partnership relationship with Kearney Public Schools, which involves K-12 educators and administrators in the preparation of future teachers through guided practice in extensive field experiences. The goals of this partnership are to: strengthen K-12 student academic achievement; strengthen preparation of future teachers; provide professional development for K-16 educators; and, study the effectiveness of partnership efforts. UNK developed a network of 34 partner schools from 15 school districts that became formalized Fall 2001.
UNK teacher and professional education programs are accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology, Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP), National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), and National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). The North Central Association accredits the University of Nebraska at Kearney.
Unique information about the UNK teacher education program:
The University of Nebraska at Kearney has a 97-year tradition of preparing teachers, school counselors, school psychologists, speech pathologists and administrators. Teacher preparation has been a primary mission of UNK since inception and the institution continues to graduate more education professionals than any other major. With a focus on scholarly teaching, faculty value teacher/student relationships and continually assess and evaluate teaching/learning practices. A renewed model of undergraduate teacher education began Fall 2001.
Unique characteristics of the renewed Teacher Education Program include: a cohort format that encourages collaboration and support between students as well as students and faculty; a freshman education course; interdisciplinary classes that block English and political science classes with education classes; field-based experiences in schools and/or community agencies that are connected to all professional sequence courses; utilization of partner schools with diverse characteristics; and focused learning experiences concerning literacy, diversity, assessment and technology. The renewed program was created to meet the College of Education's mission in the areas of diversity, technology and preparing students to live in a democratic society.
With the completion of the new College of Education building in Spring 2002, teacher education faculty are located in the same building which increases collaboration, facilitate interdisciplinary research efforts and provide state-of-the-art technology to enhance teaching and learning. The new facility helps UNK continue to be on the cutting edge of educational issues and reforms and provide the highest quality of education.
