Family Guy



Family Guy is an American animated television sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series centers on the Griffins, a dysfunctional family consisting of parents Peter and Lois; their children Meg, Chris, and Stewie; and their pet dog Brian. The show uses frequent cutaway gags, often in the form of tangential vignettes which parody American culture.

Mona Lisa (also known as La Gioconda or La Joconde) is a 16th century portrait painted in oil on a poplar panel by Leonardo da Vinci during the Italian Renaissance. The work is owned by the Government of France and is on the wall in the Louvre in Paris, France with the title Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo. It is perhaps the most famous and iconic painting in the world.The painting is a half-length portrait and depicts a woman whose expression is often described as enigmatic. The ambiguity of the sitter's expression, the monumentality of the half-figure composition, and the subtle modeling of forms and atmospheric illusionism were novel qualities that have contributed to the painting's continuing fascination. It is probably the most famous painting that has ever been stolen from the Louvre and recovered. Few other works of art have been subject to as much scrutiny, study, mythologizing, and parody. A charcoal and graphite study of the Mona Lisa attributed to Leonardo is in the Hyde Collection, in Glens Falls, NY.

Shopping...



Shopping is LOVE!!!!Shopping is the examining of goods or services from retailers with the intent to purchase at that time. Shopping is an activity of selection and/or purchase. In some contexts it is considered a leisure activity as well as an economic one.

Christmas!!!





Christmas is the best time of the year. It is the time to be with your family and create new memories. Christmas or Christmas Day is an annual holiday celebrated on December 25 that commemorates the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. The date of commemoration is not known to be Jesus' actual birthday, and may have initially been chosen to correspond with either a historical Roman festival or the winter solstice. Christmas is central to the Christmas and holiday season, and in Christianity marks the beginning of the larger season of Christmastide, which lasts twelve days.

History of UWG
From its humble beginnings as an agricultural and mechanical school in 1906 to a leading university, the University of West Georgia has a history rich with knowledge and growth.

The Fourth District Agricultural and Mechanical School in Carrollton opened its doors in response to a call for “more realistic educational programs for rural youth” ages 13-21. With the site of the former Bonner Plantation chosen as a location, 110 pupils enrolled in 1908.

As time changed, so did the educational priorities of Georgia and the nation. By 1933, seven of the A&M schools abandoned their missions, and a decision was made to abolish the remaining A&M schools.

Despite the change, the Fourth District Agricultural and Mechanical School was chosen later that year to become West Georgia College, a two-year institution of higher learning.

The evolution continued when West Georgia became a four-year institution in 1957. At that time, 589 students were enrolled. By 1971, enrollment had increased to over 6,000 students. Just seven years after West Georgia received University status, fall enrollment topped 10,000.

Artist in Society




There is not near enough favorable emphasis put on art today. It is a way of expressing emotions in a positive way. It is somewhat theraputic, a way of letting out excess thoughts and helps to process them. Beauty is a very important aspect in life, and to capture it in an art form is very spectacular. People's emotions are stimulated from observing art work. It can also landmark someone's life at crucial points

Art can take many forms, painting, crafts, and sculpture. It can tell things about periods in time, relaying what went on, doing it in a way that nothing else could display it or imitate it. Through art we have gained knowledge of times long ago, what the style of dress, the way they looked, and what the terrain looked like. It is a way of comparing the present time period with that of another. Some things have been captured by art, that might not have been otherwise recorded so vividly. If things were positive or negative in a certain time period. It was a way of recording it too for history. It also relays emotions of time periods, happiness, sadness, despair, life style, what types of architecture, mode of dress, and sometimes even the types of fruit indigenous of what particular time period. If there were activities going on, was it positive did the whole area take part in it? Was the area affluent or were they poor? Were there uprisings going on, political unrest, and were wars waged? Some artists can depict all of this with such realism it is remarkable.
