WASHINGTON (AP) -- Barack Obama selected Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware late Friday night to be his vice presidential running mate, according to a Democratic official, balancing his ticket with an older congressional veteran well-versed in foreign and defense issues.Biden, who has twice sought the White House, is a Catholic with blue-collar roots, a generally liberal voting record and a reputation as a long-winded orator. Across more than 30 years in the Senate, he has served at various times not only as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, but also as head of the Judiciary Committee, with its jurisdiction over anti-crime legislation and Constitutional issues.The official who spoke did so on condition of anonymity, preferring not to pre-empt a text-message announcement the Obama campaign promised for Saturday morning.Obama's campaign arranged a debut for the newly minted ticket on Saturday outside the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Ill.The Democratic National Convention meets next week in Denver to hand Obama his long-sought presidential nomination, and then confirm Biden.Biden slowly emerged as Obama's choice across a long day and night of political suspense as other contenders gradually fell away.First Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine let it be known that he had been ruled out. Then came word that Sen. Evan Bayh of Indiana had also been passed over.Several aides to former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton — who was Obama's closest rival for the presidential nomination — said they believed she also was out of contention. They added the Obama campaign had never requested financial or other records from her.Despite passing over Clinton, Obama has gone to great lengths to gain the confidence of her primary voters, agreeing to allow her name to be placed in nomination and permitting a roll call vote.Other finalists in the veep sweepstakes were Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and Texas Rep. Chet Edwards.Among those on the short list, Biden brought the most experience in defense or foreign policy — areas in which Obama is rated relatively poorly in the polls compared with Republican Sen. John McCain.A native of Scranton, Pa., he also has working-class roots that could benefit Obama, who lost the blue-collar vote to Clinton during their competition for the presidential nomination.Biden, 65, was elected to the Senate at the age of 29 in 1973.Biden spent the day at his home in Delaware with friends and family. The normally loquacious lawmaker maintained a low profile as associates said they believed — but did not know — he would be tapped. They added they had been asked to stand by in case their help was needed.Obama picks BidenBy Liz Sidoti and Nedra PicklerAssociated Press WritersPosted: Saturday, Aug. 23, 2008 the ASSOCIATED...

Urban crooner Lloyd topped BET's play list singing a steamy duet with Ashanti, but he got his first spins on the anything but steamy Radio Disney. Born January 3, 1986, in New Orleans but raised in Atlanta, Lloyd joined N-Toon -- the teen pop group put together by Klymaxx's Joyce Irby -- in 1996 and appeared on their 2000 album, Toon Time, released by Dreamworks. Much later -- and trading influences Mickey and Donald for Marvin Gaye and R. Kelly -- Lloyd's vocal talents were recognized by L.A. Reid. When Reid became head of the Def Jam label he turned to Irv Gotti, whose Murder Inc. label had now morphed into the Def Jam-associated The Inc.

Sorting fact from fiction....The truth about Anorexia. Myth - Anorexia is a Lifestyle ChoiceReality - Emulating the behaviours of someone with Anorexia is not the same as having the disease.Myth - Anorexia is just a Fad DietReality - Anorexia Nervosa is a recognised Psychiatric IllnessMyth - Anorexia is caused by the media and fashion industry.Reality - The Media and Fashion may be contributing factors but contributing factors are not the same as causal links. Research, although not yet definitive, has shown that Anorexia Nervosa is most likely a Neurobiological illness which also has a probable Genetic link as well. In patients with Anorexia Nervosa there appears to be an excess of the seretonin receptor 5HT1A, which is associated with anxiety, mood disturbances and impulse control and a decreased level of seretonin receptor 5HT which is associated with the regulation of mood and appetite. It is theorised that starvation acts as a form of self medication to try and balance out these irregularities in brain chemistry. Other research has identified a possible causal link between increased levels of the nuerorecptor Dopamine & associated obsessive compulsive behaviour and the identification of a Gene which is believed to predispose someone to Anorexia Nervosa. Myth - Only women suffer from AnorexiaReality - 1 in 10 sufferers is maleMyth - Anorexia only effects those in their teens or early 20'sReality - Children as young as seven and women as old as 70 have been diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa.Myth - Anorexia Nervosa is a Anorexia Nervosa...

Video shows the world's largest exhibited snake, the world's largest indoor pachyderm exhibit, North America's tallest elephant, and a tornado event.Fluffy, a reticulated python, python reticulates, is considered the world's largest exhibited snake. Fluffy is 24 feet long, 300 pounds, and 15 years old. Fluffy's waist is the size of a watermelon.She is shown taking a bath and jerking or twitching. Two people have to be in with her, one to protect the other. She has 57 children. Females incubate their eggs by coiling their body around them. They keep them at a constant 89 C. They even shiver to maintain the right temperature. Fluffy was supposed to make an airplane trip, but it was cancelled after the movie, Snakes on a Plane, came out. Jack Hannah of the Columbus zoo has taken Fluffy on the David Letterman show.According to Guinness World Records 2005, the world's longest snake was a reticulated python, which was 32 ft. 9.5 in. It was killed in Celebes, Indonesia, in 1912. Fluffy came to the zoo recently and the signs shown in the video give the information about her.Also shown is the elephant considered the tallest Asian elephant, Elephas maximus, in North America. He is 10 feet at the central hump at his back. Possibly may be the tallest known elephant, maybe even the largest land mammal. He resides in the world's largest indoor pachyderm exhibit as shown here.This was followed by a tornado alert, when the zoo was evacuated into underground chambers. We were right under the elephant exhibit (very strong building) and could hear them walking above us. The tornado activity went right over the zoo. There were touchdowns on either side of the zoo.It was part of a massive storm system that had killed at least 24 people.The video shows the tornadic clouds associated with a tornado. One tornado touched down at around 1:00 several miles west of the zoo. Calls reporting another began to come in around 1:12 according to the Columbus Dispatch (08.05.12 p. B3).At around 1:30 the evacuation began (there was a notification problem). The cloud photographs at around 2:00 on the video were taken at around 2:00 p.m. as the storm passed over and show the clouds associated with the tornado. One of the clouds shown was an unusual circular rose-shaped cloud. Later another tornado from the same storm touched down east of the zoo. The storm spawned several funnels, which did not touch down.Also shown is the Reverse 911 system in operation. Here 911 notifies people of an emergency, rather than the opposite.Altogether at least 24 people are known to have been killed by the storm as it passed accross the US. 52 tornadoes were spawned. 900 tornadoes have been reported since 08.01.01.One of the funnel clouds associated with this event was videotaped: Funnel cloud in Ohio:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM6Akr_-0EcOn the same day earthquakes shook other parts.Our Fluffy, the world's largest exhibited snake, series includes: WORLD'S LARGEST SNAKE, PYTHON, ON EXHIBIT at:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWbMWX3tO8oLongest Snake Tornado World's Elephanthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnqXoexJZjgLargest Snake Attack Strike Eat Swallow Reticulated Pythonhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc-jqmsKLC0 Longest Snake...
