Lycée Français de la Nouvelle Orléans took its first steps toward new leadership Monday night, empowering a consultant to choose three outsiders to help select a new school CEO and tasking two current board members with devising a process to recruit new members and for current ones to roll off.
Many parents in the audience, however, expressed concerns that the changes may not be sufficient to prevent a large number of the school's teachers from leaving at the end of the year. Continue reading »

Owen Courreges: The mayor's consent-decree blame game
Last July, Mayor Landrieu was on hand to announce a consent decree between the U.S. Justice Department and the City of New Orleans in a lawsuit that alleged widespread abuses of basic civil rights by the New Orleans Police Department. "Now, after more than two years of work, the consent decree is done," Mayor Landrieu remarked at the time.
Well, perhaps not quite done. Apparently, Mayor Landrieu didn't consider the fact a consent decree might be reached with respect to the city's other constitutional abomination, Orleans Parish Prison. That's exactly what happened. Landrieu spokesman Ryan Berni argues that "both the prison and NOPD consent decrees cannot be paid for at this time without raising taxes or laying off or furloughing employees." Continue reading »

One of the things I enjoy so much about where I'm working these days is the fair amount of freedom I get to produce what I want instead of being held to a list of prescribed recipes and procedures. Once a chef has spent a certain amount of time in self-employment, it is extremely difficult to go into someone else's kitchen and do their thing their way – just as it would be for anyone in any industry to similarly adapt.
During the Great Job Searches of that dismal year 2012, I purposely avoided applying for employment in any kitchen run by, say, John Besh, Emeril Lagasse or any of the Brennans (among others). There were several reasons, but the chief among them was respect. These folks have excellent reputations and proven track records, and it would be an insult for me to try to "improve" on what they do. Given my junior status in the food industry and my lack of a culinary degree, it would be doubly stupid of me to think I could make their operations better by saying anything more than "yessir" when given a task.

PARIS (AFP) – Demba Ba admitted to somewhat mixed feelings after coming off the bench to score the goal that took Chelsea into the Champions League semi-finals at Paris Saint-Germain's expense on Tuesday.
The 28-year-old came on for Frank Lampard midway through the second half and bundled the ball into the net three minutes from time to give Chelsea a 2-0 win on the night and take them into the last four on away goals as the tie finished 3-3 on aggregate.
It was a huge boost for a player who has been out of favour for much of this season at Stamford Bridge but it was also a strange feeling for Ba to eliminate PSG – Ba was born in Sevres in the Paris suburbs and is a fan of the French capital club.
"I am very happy for me, the club and my family too. I don't know if the goal has any special significance, other than the fact that we are in the semi-finals," he told French television.
"It was a bit tough seeing Paris with their heads down at the end. Since I've supported them, there have only been two times that I've wanted PSG to lose – last week and today," he added.
Ba, who is a Senegalese internationalist, has never played senior football in France. He had spells in Belgium and Germany before first moving to England in 2011 to join West Ham United.

It's been six years since the release of Chino XL's last solo album, Poison Pen, the third LP from the Mensa certified (yes, really) emcee. Chino's known for taking at least five year breaks between LP's, which leaves his fanbase clamoring for his brand of mind-bending punchlines, twisted social commentary, and Chuck Norris-esque feats of strength. With Ricanstruction: The Black Rosary, Chino unleashes a massive double LP, attempting to make up for lost time, courtesy of Immortal Technique's Viper Records.
Ricanstruction almost starts like the movie UP – you're all ripe and ready to hear Chino bombard you with lyrical miracles and instead he almost brings you to tears. With "Father's Day", he tells the tale of his young daughter's bout with cancer, which gets worse by the moment. While this is dark territory to start the album off on, it finds Chino at his most vulnerable, suggesting that there is a more human aspect to the guy who lyrically flips off God on a regular basis. But like UP, in starting this way, he gets your full, undivided attention, leaving the listener hanging off of his every word – which is needed, because this album is about an hour longer than Pixar's film.
Chino easily keeps the listener's attention throughout the length of the first disc, which really is where much of the meat of the album lies. Disc One, or "Scalpel", as it's dubbed, weaves in and out of super-lyrical territory and songs about his personal life, balancing things out almost perfectly. For instance, songs like the Yeah Yeah Yeah's sampled "Anything" has the perfect, brooding backdrop for Chino's barrage of poetical terror, while it's follow-up "Hell Song", with Tech N9ne, finds him spitting some of the most technically amazing stanzas of his career. While this kind of thing can get overwhelming, Chino's tapped a strong stable of producers to help keep things interesting, such as Apollo Brown, E-Swift, Stu Bangas, and others.
On the more personal side of things, we find Chino revealing intimate details of his life outside of rap, such as the incredibly visual "Silent Art Child" or "Mama Told Me", both of which deal with his troubling childhood, or the hateful "Sleep In Scarlet" which deals with his dysfunctional ex. The flipside of that coin comes later on the second disc, with the gorgeously Exile produced "Crazy Love", a ballad to the lady in his life.
Truthfully, much of the album's greatest moments are pushed up front, while the second disc almost acts as a series of bonus tracks. While "Little Man" explores the outcome of bullying and school-shootings in a tale we're all too familiar with, much of the second disc is reserved for the posse cuts and collabos. There's a host of able lyricists that go toe-to-toe with XL on the second disc, from Bun B ("Xross Your Heart") to Big Pun ("Kings") to Iriscience & Roc Marciano ("Take It Back") to Thirstin Howl & B-Real ("Latino's Stand Up Remix"). These are the tracks that make the tracklist more appealing to the consumer, but ultimately the tracks that will have the most lasting effect do not have guests. That being said, he closes things out nicely with the rainy, "Gone".
RICANstruction is a hefty plate to digest, and truthfully should be treated as two separate albums. It's clear that Chino leaves no bar empty, packing this album with more rewind moments THAN A VCR FACTORY (See what I did there?) Jokes aside, while the album may have a low point or two, and literally bludgeons you with lyrical content, its standard for quality remains high. It will definitely keep fans' attention for at least the next five years, as it will take at least that long to catch every line.
In my experience as a Chino fan, XL is always best when he goes personal…and I always felt if he ever went full force with that…he would leave us with a classic…I'm excited to hear the album…since I read the review first…I'm extra excited…

Ringer Season 2 Is A No Go,CW Sadly Canceled It & More
Ringer Season 2 is a no go,CW sadly canceled it & more. Well,it's official guys. According to TV Line, CW has officially canceled their new,hit show Ringer,along with Secret Circle. However,what really makes me think they've utterly lost their minds,is they decided to renew that awful "Hart Of Dixie" show for a 2nd season,WTF?
I can't imagine that was a ratings hit over Ringer and Secret Circle. Ringer won an award for Christ's sake. These cancellation reports always never cease to amaze me. It seems like they always find,at least, one really good show to get rid of,and keep a show that nobody watches. Unreal.
Anyways,on a lighter note,CW managed to do a few things right,and gave veteran shows: Gossip Girl, Nikita, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries,and 90210 brand new seasons. They're also bringing on a couple of new shows to its roster,but they don't sound all that great,but who knows? We'll see. Stay tuned. Follow us on Facebook by Clicking Here.

Michelle and Roger Lyon are doing whatever they can to find their daughter who they believe is on the run with a registered sex offender.
Monday, they were handing out fliers at the Winn Dixie store on Fish Hawk Blvd. Relatives brought the fliers to other stores in the same shopping center. They also took some to their daughter Ashley's high school, Newsome.
However, they say they are getting a phenomenal response from another kind of communication: social media. They say Ashley's story is going viral.
"People have been sharing it, retweeting it, " said her dad, Roger. "We have had a couple of thousand hits at this point."
Later in the day, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Colonel Donna Lusczynski said her agency has no evidence that Ashley and Myers are together, but it is a possibility.
Lusczynski says detectives are checking out the possibility that Myers and the teen are in Georgia. That's where Myers used to live, and where he was charged with lewd and lascivious behavior with a child under 17 fourteen years ago.

SHIFTING GEARS? Why Dubai's "booming" art market needs to change its strategy
Dubai has discovered there really are some things money can't buy.
June 14, 2012 5:35 by Reuters
A Christie's auction in April in the ballroom of Jumeriah Emirates Towers in downtown Dubai featured works by contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish artists and attracted a young, fashionable crowd, some of them emerging collectors.
Michael Jeha, Christie's Middle East director, who describes the boom in 2007 and early 2008 as overheating and unsustainable, said this new league of collectors was instrumental to the foundation of a stronger market.
"Where we are today is you have a truly sustainable market with a far deeper base of buyers and far more younger collectors participating," he said. "Collectors want to buy art from their own region as they relate to it."
The status of women in society, social and civil rights and certainly the effects of the Arab Spring revolutions in several countries in the Middle East are what stimulates this younger art crowd. Some say they're looking for pieces that, as collector Shaz Sheibani put it, "reflect the pains of the society and are full of powerful statements".
"Iranian art for example is very topical," said Sheibani, a Canadian national of Iranian origin who grew up in Dubai. "I like those kinds of things that I can relate to and the messages are more about the reflections on the society."
Sheibani, 34, who has been collecting art for the past four to five years, talks about a generation of people who spent their childhood in Dubai and then went abroad to study. Many came back with a fresh and broad world vision and are determined to be a part of the artistic transformation of the city.
"What happens when your walls are full?" asked Bashar Al-Shrooqi, a private collector and the director of Dubai's Cuadro Fine Art Gallery.
"Then you actually develop this passion and instead of going to the movies you go to a gallery opening and at that point it becomes not just collecting to fill your walls anymore … This is what we've been seeing here."
One positive indicator for the Dubai art scene is the popularity of Art Dubai, which covers the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia region. For its sixth edition this year, featuring 75 galleries from 32 countries, visitor numbers have nearly quadrupled from its first year in 2007 to more than 22,000.
Fair director Antonia Carver predicted a bright future for Dubai's art market.
"The recognition of Arab and Iranian artists by the global market has been absolutely phenomenal," she said.
"I don't think anyone in the art market here is hoping for a big boom. They're hoping for a steady growth and I can say we're in a much better position than before." (Editing by Sonya Hepinstall)

But Dellaplane himself is violent as well. Dellaplane kills his wife Patrice by shooting her. And then he plants her body in Jackson's apartment, framing Jackson.

Storm Show's 2011 ski/ride adrenaline film promises to be its most adventurous undertaking to date. The record books were shattered with over 700 inches of snowfall having blasted the Teton Range of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. As to be expected, big lines go down one after another, guys & girls alike. On display is the deepest of deep that will make your pants soggy, and massive cliff hucking that you can watch safely from your couch. Highlights include Jeff Leger's legendary 80 foot swan dives, and Adam Osgood's 100 foot double-front flips. Also in the running is Derek Depiero's first un-roped descent of Birdbrain Couloir in the Jackson Hole backcountry, and snowboarder Travis McAlpine's first descent of the disgustingly exposed Nomad Couloir. Yes, 2011 was one for the record books, and Action Jackson is the ski film that proves it...Epic!
Prince visits the Lexx warning of "Earth's date with destiny". Stan celebrates but is drawn back into the turbulent atmosphere after learning that the aliens have successfully invaded the "little blue planet".
Kai battles an oversized Lyekka who threatens to destroy the Earth. Kai is in trouble and his only savior is Stan, but Stan's infatuation for Lyekka causes him to hesitate to destroy the alien mother ship.
Lyekka gives the Lexx crew luscious berries as gifts of thanks. Xev and Stan eat the berries taking them on a "high" ride. Stan and Xev believe that they are trying to kill each other and 790 hopes he can have Kai all to himself.
"The King Tut" hotel is host to the Lexx crew. The excitement steps up a notch when Xev, having adopted the wrestling persona of Cleopatra, goes up against some of the hotels top women fighters.
The crew discovers an unusual stowaway on board: the sultry Lyekka. Lyekka is actually a strange form of carnivorous plant, whose main purpose is to feed. She makes a nasty first impression when she dines on some visiting astronauts, but eventually proves her worth to Stan, Kai and especially 790 when she places the remains of Zev into her chrysalis. A spectacular new Xev is regenerated much to the delight of the crew.
Also Available On Amazon Instant Video
Lyekka comes on board the Lexx to convince the crew not to destroy her ship. The seed is planted - if they destroy her ship, she will perish.
The crew of the Lexx rescues the crew of "The Comet". At first the humans are grateful to be saved from a life in space forever, but their tune changes when they realize the power of the Lexx.
Kai agrees to play a high-stakes game of chess with Prince. If Kai wins, Prince will unite the spirit and body of Kai into one. If Kai loses, Stan and Xev must forfeit their lives.
President Priest and First Lady Bunny attempt to hijack the Lexx, but the Lexx crew narrowly intervenes saving the Earth, at least temporarily.
The crew of the Lexx is caught up in the post-Waco politics of obsessed patriots headed by Moss. He court marshals them and becomes the judge, prosecution and defense. Unfortunately for Stan, Xev and Kai the verdict is guilty.
Now wanted as fugitives for the massacre at Prime Ridge, they take refuge in the home belonging to Mort, a mortician with a bizarre obsession. Stan and Xev commit a serious faux pas during a viewing.
The crew of the Lexx settles down in small town America, buying their first house in Prime Ridge. Stan finds himself with a mother and daughter who both try to seduce him; Kai needs more proto-blood and Xev is a stress counselor.

Star Struck for BatPonyStarStruck
's OC is finally complete! My most time-intensive plush yet, (though that will probably be surpassed by the Luna I have planned). Sure, there's some minor things I'd change or do differently than I did, but I'm very happy with how she turned out! (That doesn't mean you shouldn't give your honest feedback anyway though. )
-No wire in the wings.
-Swiveling head. (It's been a while since I did another swiveling head, but I'm glad I did.)
-Glow in the dark eyes.

LED Luna Progress!I decided to keep a separate running journal for Luna. I'll update my status probably tomorrow or so after I get some more non-Luna work done.
July 5, 2014:
Mane flow/Eye circuit complete. Head stuffed, (and it wasn't easy). Note that her eyes will actually fade up then down at the press of a button. The last pic is her eyes at full brightness. Her eyes have 4 different types of fades. I could've added more and played with the timing indefinitely, but for the sake of my sanity I kept it "simple."
Also, here's an earlier video of how Luna's stars will work. I've since worked out the button issue. But I'm curious, should the LEDs turn off between modes like it does now, or just switch mid-stream? Please let me know!

LED Luna progress! (Top left is first test, second row is final, last row is mane test.)

The First Amendment of our nation's Constitution establishes five rights that the founding fathers considered so important, they listed them first in the Bill of Rights.
While the proverbial advice to "take each day as it comes" has some validity, it also masks the dangerous assumption that the choices we make today won't have consequential carry-over tomorrow. In fact, while it is both harmful and a waste of time to worry about the unknowns of the future, it is always wise to consider what effect my decisions today will have on the options available to me later.
As a former parks commissioner for the city of Santa Clarita, I am deeply passionate about ensuring our residents enjoy quality recreation facilities, beautiful outdoor space and a healthy way of life.
Ask yourself the honest question: Did you truly believe The Patient Protection Affordable Care Act, or ACA, was going to work as promised? If the answer is "yes," then did you earnestly think through the practical workings of the program?
Energizer Bunnies keep going and going and going – and for a time, it looked like Buck McKeon would be equally perpetual in motion to those furry little drumbeaters. The man is after all, 75, and still beating war drums while running circles around most of us. Yet now it seems that both Buck the man, and his underlying message of perpetual militarism may be running down, with time well deserved for some R and R away from the military industrial complex.
It's a story about how freedom is all.
People waiting to get New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's last pound of flesh may have a long wait, and not for the obvious reason.
There was a lot to talk about when House Speaker John Boehner appeared before reporters recently for the first time since the holiday break. There are continuing fights over Obamacare. Immigration reform. Appropriations bills. The debt ceiling. The Democratic push for the president's "inequality agenda."
Hundreds of millions of people will be following the 2014 Winter Olympics, even though the underwhelming motto ("Hot. Cool. Yours.") sounds less like a paean to athletic excellence than the sort of progression that accompanies a court-ordered paternity suit.
It is rare when we think deeply anymore. In too many ways, and in too many instances, we are becoming a people who let others do our thinking for us.
Recently, the community of Santa Clarita has been buzzing over potential billboard removals and the possibility of sign ordinance changes. It began when the Metro Group, who owns the land on which the billboards in question reside, approached the city with a proposal to remove every billboard in the Metro (railroad) right-of-way, within the Soledad Canyon Road and Railroad Avenue corridors, in the center of the city. This amounts to the permanent removal of 118 billboards on 62 structures along the Metro right-of-way in exchange for a change to the current sign ordinance that would allow them to build three ...
The demand for public transportation continues to increase as Americans enjoy the freedoms provided by commuter buses and railways.
Fracking has captured the headlines recently, but another, less well-known technique for extracting oil trapped in rock cavities deep underground is increasingly being used in California and is an even bigger threat to health and the environment.
Every year, Santa Clarita is selected to host numerous high-profile sporting events. Thanks to our championship athletic facilities, extensive trail system, bike-friendly policies and enthusiastic community, 2014 is already shaping up to be one of the best years yet for sports tourism in the city of Santa Clarita.
My nephew from Mississippi put out a Facebook post that said his pipes were frozen. Let me repeat that: Mississippi.
One of our most necessary freedoms as Americans is the freedom of speech, as protected in the Bill of Rights. Yet, today, while much is being shouted and written supporting this prized privilege, the fact is the freedom to speak is being taken away.
The city of Santa Clarita is home to numerous nonprofit organizations that benefit residents from all walks of life.
Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma, or DIPG, is a terminal brain disease that affects children aged 5 to 10 years.
My Uncle Earl was recently invited to give the commencement speech at the Robert Oppenheimer School for Really Smart Kids, a charter school approved by the Newhall School District but located in Lancaster.
Dr. Seuss is among the most beloved in the pantheon of American writers. Ostensibly written for children, most of his stories also carry deeply meaningful lessons for those adults reading along with their kids.
Just when you think Fox News and the right-wing scandal machine can sink no further, they wallow in a new level of filth that just boggles the mind.
A friend of mine surprised me with an unexpected opinion the other day. Like me, he had recently traveled to India and came away stunned by the immensity poverty prevailing there.

Turan Hill Lounge
Located where the road ends . . . literally . . . Along the mountainous southern coast of Turkey, you will find Kabak. A remote, breathtaking valley with views of the turquoise Mediterranean like I've never seen before.
We arrived at the end of this road on a Monday, not knowing what to expect . . . but hoping for Amazing!
We parked the car, grabbed our small bags (and a beer at the roadside stand) in preparation for the 30 minute hike to the valley floor.
As we took it all in, a small bus arrived offering to drive us into the valley — yes please! A windy, dusty dirt road eventually opened up to the most beautiful white rock and sand beach . . . we knew we'd found paradise.
There are several beautiful eco resorts in Kabak . . . we choose Turan Hill Lounge – individual bungalows built into the hillside (each with amazing views). Winding, cobbled walking paths connect the bungalows to the lounge areas and to the mountain spring pools . . . everywhere you looked, there was an inviting place to sit . . . stare . . . and unwind.
The days went something like this . . .
Wake up to the sound of roosters calling and slowly move from the bungalow to the grape vine covered porch for a delicious freshly prepared breakfast of yogurt, fresh bread, a variety of jams, fruit & Turkish coffee. - - Stare at the water . . . Move to the upper lounge . . . Stare at the water. Move to the pool . . . swim, lounge on the deck packed with pillows . . . Swim again. - Walk the 2-minute white rock path to the beach thru the woods — swim, float, stare at the water. Lounge on the pillows near the pool at the beach. - - Order a beer, stare at the water, doze off for awhile. Return to Turan Hill for dinner at 8 . . . candles glowing from everywhere, great music, Turkish wine and again . . . stare at the water, the stars, the mountains — The perfect day. -
They say there is some magical force of protection watching over this valley and I believe it . . . it was so peaceful. I would definitely return to Kabak & Turan Hill — highly recommended.
Meet Ece, Turan Hill Innkeeper
She and her husband have been running Turan Hill for a long time and it's apparent that she loves it . . . she is stunning. You can feel her good energy the second you meet her and she puts all of that energy into making guests feel so welcome.
I loved her . . . and she was nice enough to tell me about the Evil Eye (which was everywhere) & the history of this ancient symbol . . .
For more on Turan Hill Lounge, visit turanhilllounge.com
→ Stay tuned for Part 2 featuring my obsession
(and respect) of the Evil Eye.
