The chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the Red Junglefowl. As one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, and with a population of more than 24 billion in 2003, there are more chickens in the world than any other species of bird. Humans keep chickens primarily as a source of food, consuming both their meat and their eggs.
The Singapore presidential election of 2011 is the fourth Singapore presidential election to be held on 27 August 2011. Nomination day for eligible candidates was held on August 17, 2011. The incumbent President S.R. Nathan’s term is to end on August 31, 2011. He could have sought re-election as there are no term limits, but declined to do so.
Four candidates were issued certificates of eligibility by Singapore’s Presidential Elections Committee. As all four candidates are expected to stand nominated on Nomination Day, this would most likely be the first contested election since the 1993 election, and the first multi-candidate presidential race in Singaporean history.

A parody (pronounced /ˈpærədi/; also called send-up, spoof or lampoon), in contemporary usage, is a work created to mock, comment on, or trivialise an original work, its subject, author, style, or some other target, by means of humorous, satiric or ironic imitation. As the literary theorist Linda Hutcheon puts it, “parody … is imitation, not always at the expense of the parodied text.” Another critic, Simon Dentith, defines parody as “any cultural practice which provides a relatively polemical allusive imitation of another cultural production or practice.” Parody may be found in art or culture, including literature, music (although “parody” in music has an earlier, somewhat different meaning than for other art forms), animation, gaming and film.
The writer and critic John Gross observes in his Oxford Book of Parodies, that parody seems to flourish on territory somewhere between pastiche (“a composition in another artist’s manner, without satirical intent”) and burlesque (which “fools around with the material of high literature and adapts it to low ends”).

POPLAR — Darryl Dean Red Eagle, Wambdi Sake Suta (Strong Eagle Talons), age 45, was born on May 29, 1966, to the late Delmar Red Eagle and Betty (Good Bird) Black Dog. Darryl left unexpectedly into the Spirit World on June 20, 2011, due to natural causes.
Darryl attended schools in Poplar, graduating with the PHS Class of 1985, and was a member of the PHS Varsity Boys Basketball from 1982 to 1985. During this time, the media labeled him as “Mr. Everything.” He also received many basketball awards while on the team. He went on to attend college and play basketball at United Tribes Technical College and Mary College in Bismarck, N.D. He later attended Sitting Bull College, receiving his degree in Human Services.
Darryl worked in various jobs in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota: Black Hills Forestry in Custer, S.D.; Shelter for Neglected Children in Rapid City, S.D.; Concrete Foundations in Bismarck, N.D.; Fort Lincoln State Park Cultural Resources in Mandan, N.D.; The Fort Peck Tribes as the Tribal Courts Cultural Resource Specialist; and later TERO Director; and most recently Darryl was a proud member of the Fort Peck Tribal Executive Board, serving his third term on the council, an accomplishment he so well deserved. He loved this job because he loved helping people. He never turned anyone away. He did all his work from the heart. He traveled many miles to speak on behalf of Healthcare. He presented a testimony on behalf of the Tribes at IHS and BIA hearings. Darryl was well respected throughout NDN country.
“D” or “Brother” as his sister would call him was very proud of Maureen. He would always say, “No matter what, Sis, hold your head up and be proud because that’s how you make me feel.” Darryl dearly loved his only son, Dennis Melvin; he would give him lots of praise, no matter what it was. He was always talking about his daughter Delayne and how beautiful she was. Most of all, his granddaughter Emmarie Ann, whom he wished he could be closer to. Darryl loved to brag about his nephew, Jr. Dionne. He was very proud of his nephew. Jr. and Darryl were planning summer basketball camps this year across the reservation.
Darryl loved being with his family & friends. He loved telling stories and joking with everyone who crossed his path. He was always good to everyone. Darryl had many friends whom he loved to be around. His love of basketball took him near and far. He liked to chef up for his family and friends, play pool and horseshoes, he also liked to go cruising, sitting at new bridge watching eagles circle above him. He enjoyed singing at powwows and 49′s. No matter where “D” went, he always met up with friends or made new ones.
Darryl was compassionate, traditional, inspirational, loving, caring, generous, and kind-hearted. Darryl would want us to treat each other with respect, with a hug and a handshake, always tell one another that we love each other. And to be proud of who you are and where you came from. Be proud to be Native. He was a common man, a True Warrior.
A Wake was held Friday, June 24, at 7 p.m. at the Poplar Cultural Center. His Funeral service was held 2 p.m. Saturday, June 25, at the Poplar High School gym. Interment followed at Fort Kipp Cemetery, Fort Kipp, Montana.

January 20, 1965 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312060270?ie=UTF8&tag=doc06-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0312060270 Watch the full film: http://thefilmarchived.blogspot.com/2010/09/president-lyndon-b-johnson-inauguration.html
The second inauguration of Lyndon B. Johnson as the 36th President of the United States was held on January 20, 1965. The inauguration marked the commencement of the second term (and first full four-year term) of Lyndon B. Johnson as President and the only four-year term Hubert Humphrey as Vice President. Chief Justice Earl Warren administered the Oath of office, and Lady Bird Johnson founded the tradition of First Ladies participating in the ceremony by holding the President’s Bible. An estimated 1.2 million attended the inauguration, at the time the record holder for any event held at the National Mall until the Obama inauguration in 2009. This was the last time an inauguration was covered by newsreels.
Lyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973), often referred to as LBJ, served as the 36th President of the United States from 1963 to 1969 after his service as the 37th Vice President of the United States from 1961 to 1963. He served in all four federal elected offices of the United States: Representative, Senator, Vice President, and President.
Johnson served as a United States Representative from Texas, from 19371949 and as United States Senator from 19491961, including six years as United States Senate Majority Leader, two as Senate Minority Leader and two as Senate Majority Whip. After campaigning unsuccessfully for the Democratic nomination in 1960, Johnson was asked by John F. Kennedy to be his running mate for the 1960 presidential election.
Johnson, a Democrat, succeeded to the presidency following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, completed Kennedy’s term and was elected President in his own right, winning by a large margin in the 1964 Presidential election. Johnson was greatly supported by the Democratic Party and, as President, was responsible for designing the “Great Society” legislation that included laws that upheld civil rights, Public Broadcasting, Medicare, Medicaid, environmental protection, aid to education, and his “War on Poverty.” He was renowned for his domineering personality and the “Johnson treatment,” his arm twisting of powerful politicians in order to advance legislation.
Simultaneously, he greatly escalated direct American involvement in the Vietnam War. As the war dragged on, Johnson’s popularity as President steadily declined. After the 1966 Congressional elections, his re-election bid in the 1968 United States presidential election collapsed as a result of turmoil within the Democratic Party related to opposition to the Vietnam War. He withdrew from the race amid growing opposition to his policy on the Vietnam War and a worse-than-expected showing in the New Hampshire primary.
Despite the failures of his foreign policy, Johnson is ranked favorably among some historians due to his domestic policies.
