Mexican officials plan to kick off a year's worth of bicentennial events, commemorating their independence with a float at the 2010 Tournament of Roses Parade held on January 1, in Pasadena, California.
"It's about putting Mexico in an international forum ... like the Rose Parade," said Juan Marcos Gutierrez, consul general of Mexico in Los Angeles. "The message is pretty much that today we are starting the celebrations throughout the year."
The float – featuring floral replicas of the Aztec calendar and Mexico City's Angel of Independence, skirted by 36 people dancing to traditional Mexican music – is the first time in recent years that the nation has featured a float in the parade. The last time the Mexican government sponsored a float in the parade was 1968, the same year the nation hosted the Summer Olympics in Mexico City.

The law was published in the official government newspaper, and will go into effect in 45 days. It was passed by a comfortable margin by this sprawling capital's legislature.
The conservative National Action Party, which controls the federal government, and the Roman Catholic Church have both condemned the law as an affront to the traditional family. Both wanted to block it.
Using Christmas season celebrations as their platform, senior church officials decried the law as "immoral." "We have seen with impotence, pain and consternation ... [this] blow to the most intimate structure of Mexican families, the institution over which our nation has built its rich history, values and spirituality," Cardinal Norberto Rivera said.
Meanwhile, what is being billed as the first gay marriage in Latin America has taken place. In the extreme southern region of Argentina's Tierra del Fuego, gay rights activists Jose Maria Di Bello and Alex Freyre tied the knot on Monday after a court in Buenos Aires blocked their attempt at marital bliss.
