Thread: News from the Desk of Croggon

News from the Desk of Croggon
Hello all -
It's been shamefully long since I was last here, and I'm kind of amazed that you die-hards are still posting. Good to see you all Pellinoring away, after all this time! Anyway, I thought I'd let you know about some updates.
1. I've just uploaded a new book to Amazon Kindle. Before you get all excited: no, it's not a new Pellinor book. It's a fantasy adventure for younger readers, probably 9-12, rather more Roald Dahl than Tolkien, called JIMMY WONDERSPOON. But I think it's pretty cute. (If any of you want to petition Miyazake to make a film out of it, be my guest - I think it would be perfect!)
It's a book I wrote ages ago for my daughter, and which nobody has been much interested in publishing. And a couple of days ago I thought, why not post it on Amazon Kindle as an ebook? And voila, there it is! I've made a page with details, so if you're interested - or if you have young friends or relatives who might like it - you can find out where to buy it here.
2. BLACK SPRING, my new stand-alone fantasy, is all signed up and systems are go. It is still ages and ages away, I'm afraid - it won't be coming out in Australia until next Christmas, and in the UK and the US after that. Sometimes it's frustrating how long the business of getting a book out takes. The book already feels like old news to me, and it won't be published for a year! I am, however, VERY excited about this one, which is a dark Gothic romance. I've always wanted to write a Gothic story.
I'm writing hard, on all sorts of things. As far as novels go, I'm working on a story at present (another stand-alone) with a very appealing girl hero called Sim. She's the major reason I want to finish it, I can't leave her unfinished! And I have an idea for an adult fantasy which is nagging away at me. So there will be more. In due course. Maybe I'll just start self-publishing out of impatience!
Lots of Pellinor love
September 20th, 2011, 03:05 PM #2
This is all amazing news - I'm looking forward to Black Spring so much! Will have to make an order with an Australian bookshop when the time comes. And more fantasy afterwards - oh my! Thank you so much for keeping all of us Pellinorites here updated.

Given how long it takes for books to actually appear in the world, this one will take a while. It's a rather lyrical story, set in a more contemporary landscape, somewhere like Central Asia. It's called, for the moment, THE RIVER AND THE BOOK. But don't hold your breath. Yet...
September 20th, 2011, 05:03 PM #5
I won't, but I'll certainly keep an eye open for your updates on the book, assuming some more will come.
Best of luck with writing it!
September 20th, 2011, 05:08 PM #6
I think for a while they will be of the kind that says: "Wrote five hundred words. Wrote another five hundred words. Wrote another five hundred words and crossed out four hundred".
If you enjoy that kind of thing, you can always follow me on Twitter. @alisoncroggon
September 20th, 2011, 05:11 PM #7
Why did I not think of looking for you on there? Tut tut. I'll put you on follow.
September 21st, 2011, 01:47 PM #8
Nice to see you around, and that's very intriguing news! Looking forward to "Black Spring".

Might you be thinking of The Friendship instead of The Friends?
Though this intriguing tweet was posted last week...
Hi (after all this time) Alison, have been looking forward to Black Spring for years, so I think I can batten down to wait just one more. In fact, I seem to be waiting for a lot of things coming out in December, perhaps this is what the Mayans where talking about.
March 12th, 2012, 04:47 PM #11
Yes, it was the Friendship I was referring to. I was trying to establish if this was a confirmational message to all fans still keen on Pellinor that there may be more to come.

Oh my goodness! I can't wait to see any of your new work, Alison!
And thank you for keeping us updated. It means a lot.

Well, without wanting to put words in the mouth of our songstress...
The first draft of the new book is under way, as we knew, but as in it's being worked on as I type this, as evidenced by this tweet. It's also not going to just be about Cadvan, but also Dernhil!
But it's ages away

Moe's Books
2484 Telegraph Avenue
In her new book, Antonia Juhasz investigates the true state of the U.S. oil industry—uncovering its virtually unparalleled influence over our elected officials, its lack of regulatory oversight, and the powers at play behind the leading company's highest profit rates in corporate history. Within this detailed assessment of the current state of affairs, Juhasz offers an immediate call to action—a formula for reining in the industry, cutting down its governmental lobbying powers, and reducing world's dependence on oil. With major players in America's most powerful industry charged with collusion, price-gouging, anti-competitive behavior, and unabashed greed, Juhasz proposes a viable answer—the ultimate break-up of the nation's leading oil companies.
Antonia Juhasz is a leading expert on international trade and finance policy and the author of The Bush Agenda: Invading the World, One Economy at a Time. A fellow with Oil Change International and the Institute for Policy Studies, she has served as an aide to two U.S. members of Congress and holds as Masters degree in Public Policy from Georgetown University. An award-winning writer and frequent media commentator, her work has been featured in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, International Herald Tribune, Los Angeles Times, Petroleum Review Magazine, and Alternet.org . She has appeared on Kudlow & Company, National Public Radio's Diane Rehm Show and Marketplace, Washington Journal, Hannity & Colmes, and Democracy Now! among many other shows. She lives in San Francisco, CA.

quote:But, the South started it - not Lincoln.
quote:Really demonstrates the challenges President Lincoln faced and his own personal/political demons.
quote:What did he feel guilty for causing the death of a half million people?
quote: Why all the hate and bitterness towards one of our greatest presidents?
quote:Lincoln loved and admired the union and the constitution, but he realized that, in order to preserve it, the constitution must be circumvented in the most pressing of times.
quote:You didn't really expect him to grant suffrage, integrate schools, and end discrimination in 1866 did you? Maybe affirmative action in 1867? Appoint some black judges in 1868? The guy was ahead of his time but come on.... Maybe you would like to criticize Henry Ford for not inventing a traction control system for the Model T?
quote:This movie is an historically inaccurate, slanted piece of propaganda dressed up brilliantly with great actors and imagery.
quote:The North set no such date. Lincoln always intended to use Fort Sumter to ignite a conflict. You can say what you want about that but Lincoln needed a war to bring the South back into the Union. He informed the governor of South Carolina of his intentions to resupply the fort and this is what led to the bombardment.
quote:read my link I posted earlier. It contains two links within that link.
quote: Just returned from seeing the movie and I enjoyed it. I'd be interested in hearing what egregious historical inaccuracies it contained.

George Vithoulkasis today Honorary Professor at the University of the Aegean, Greece1, Honorary Professor at the Moscow Medical Academy (Academy of Medical Sciences), Professor at the Kiev Medical Academy2 and Collaborating Professor at the Basque Medical University (2001-2004)3 and Doctor Honoris Causa of "Doctor ViktorBabes" University of Medicine and Pharmacy of Timisoara in Romania. In 1996, he was honored with the Right Livelihood Award (also known as Alternative Nobel Prize, www.rightlivelihood.org) "…for his outstanding contribution to the revival of homeopathic knowledge and the training of homeopaths to the highest standards" 4. The United Nations (Development Forum) consider this award "Among the world's most prestigious awards", while TIME Magazine called Jacob Uexkull, the award's initiator, one of the 37 "heroes" of 20055. In 1995, he established the International Academy of Classical Homeopathy in Alonissos, Greece, where he serves as Head of Educational Department (Educator). In this Academy, George Vithoulkas gives over the knowledge gleaned from his 40 years of his experience and teaches his most current theories regarding levels of health. In his teachings, he provides detailed information that both helps doctors determine each patient's state of health, as well as facilitates their ability to estimate whether a case is curable with homeopathy and the amount of time and remedies that will be needed to accomplish a cure. The Educational Program of International Academy of Classical Homeopathy has been adopted by various Universities: a. Moscow Medical Academy - Postgraduate Educational Program in Classical Homeopathy for Medical Doctors b. P. L. Shupik National Medical Academy of Post Graduate Education (Ukraine) - in compliance with the Order of Ministry of Public Health of Ukraine - Postgraduate Educational Program in Classical Homeopathy for Medical Doctors and Pharmacists c. Aegean University of Greece - Postgraduate Educational Program in Classical Homeopathy for Medical Doctors and Dentists On 1st June, 2010, International Academy of Classical Homeopathy launched the E-Learning Program in Classical Homeopathy http://www.vithoulkas.edu.gr Professor Vithoulkas is a peer reviewer in journals "Medical Science Monitor", "Homeopathy" (Elsevier) and "British Medical Journal". George Vithoulkas is the author of the following books (www.vithoulkasbooks.gr) : His books have been translated in 23 languages. Seventeen of his books, in various languages, are mentioned in the NLM Catalog (National Library of Medicine, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). George Vithoulkas' most important articles, to be found in peer-reviewed journals, are the following: 1.

In the prestigious "Papyros Larousse-Britannica7" encyclopedia, in a three column article, he is portrayed as "leader homeopath, one of the most famous reformers of homeopathy during the twentieth century, the man who infused homeopathy with new ideas on a scientific base". His work is also being mentioned in "Who's Who in the World", (18th edition, p.2293). His name is mentioned in the website Better World Heroes (www.betterworldheroes.com8), among approximately 1.000 personalities whose work influenced or helped humanity. In 1980, George Vithoulkas was invited by the World Health Organization to write the first article on Homeopathy for the book, Traditional Medicine, published by WHO, as well as the main article in the round table discussion for WHO's scientific magazine, the World Health Forum10 journal. In 1996, he was invited by the European Parliament to explain the position of homeopathy and after his presentation the European Parliament voted in favor for Homeopathy. In 11.6.1999, George Vithoulkas was requested by Council of Europe to make a day- long presentation on homeopathic medicine (as part of their evaluation of alternative therapeutic methods) before the Social, Health and Family Affairs Committee. The text that was published thereafter mentions his receipt of the Alternative Nobel Prize and refers to his categorization of the various alternative methods. COUNCIL OF EUROPE

Gallbladder radionuclide scan is a test that uses radioactive material to check gallbladder function. It is also used to look for bile duct blockage.
Radionuclide - gallbladder; Gallbladder scan; Biliary scan; Cholescintigraphy
The health care provider will inject a radioactive chemical called a gamma emitting tracer into a vein. This material collects mostly in the liver. It will then flow with bile into the gallbladder.
For the test:
If the doctor cannot see the gallbladder after certain amount of time, you may be given a small amount of morphine. This can help the radionuclide get into the gallbladder. The morphine may cause you to feel tired after the exam.
In some cases, the doctor may give you a medicine during this test to see how well your gallbladder squeezes (contracts).
You need to eat something within a day of the test. However, you must stop eating or drinking 4 hours before the test starts.
You will feel a sharp prick from the needle when the tracer is injected into the vein. The site may be sore after the injection. There is normally no pain during the scan.
This test is very good for detecting a sudden infection of the gallbladder or blockage of a bile duct. It is also helpful in determining whether there is rejection of a transplanted liver.
The test can also be used to detect long-term gallbladder problems.
There is a small risk to pregnant or nursing mothers. Unless it is absolutely necessary, the scan will be delayed until you are no longer pregnant or nursing.
The amount of radiation is small (less than that of a regular x-ray). It is almost all gone from the body within 1 or 2 days. Your risk from radiation may increase if you have a lot of scans.
Most of the time, this test is done only if a person has sudden pain that the doctor thinks may be from gallbladder disease or gallstones. For this reason, some people may need urgent treatment based on the test results.
This test is combined with other imaging (such as CT or ultrasound). After the gallbladder scan, the patient may be prepared for surgery, if needed.

Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick (Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig, "the Day of the Festival of Patrick"), is a cultural and religious celebration occurring annually on 17 March, the death date of the most commonly-recognised patron saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick (c. AD 385–461).
Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early seventeenth century and is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland),[4] the Eastern Orthodox Church and Lutheran Church. The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland,[3] as well as celebrating the heritage and culture of the Irish in general.[5] Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, céilithe, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks.[6] Christians also attend church services,[5][7] and the Lenten restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol are lifted for the day, which has encouraged and propagated the holiday's tradition of alcohol consumption.[5][6][8][9]
Saint Patrick's Day is a public holiday in the Republic of Ireland,[10] Northern Ireland,[11] Newfoundland and Labrador and Montserrat. It is also widely celebrated by the Irish diaspora around the world; especially in Great Britain, Canada, the United States, Argentina, Australia and New Zealand.
Saint Patrick
Much of what is known about St Patrick comes from the Declaration, which was allegedly written by Patrick himself. It is believed that he was born in Roman Britain in the fourth century, into a wealthy Romano-British family. His father was a deacon and his grandfather was a priest in the Christian church. According to the Declaration, at the age of sixteen, he was kidnapped by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to Gaelic Ireland.[12] It says that he spent six years there working as a shepherd and that during this time he "found God". The Declaration says that God told Patrick to flee to the coast, where a ship would be waiting to take him home. After making his way home, Patrick went on to become a priest.
According to tradition, Patrick returned to Ireland to convert the pagan Irish to Christianity. The Declaration says that he spent many years evangelising in the northern half of Ireland and converted "thousands". Tradition holds that he died on 17 March and was buried at Downpatrick. Over the following centuries, many legends grew up around Patrick and he became Ireland's foremost saint.
Celebration and traditions
Wearing of the green
On St. Patrick's Day it is customary to wear shamrocks and/or green clothing or accessories (the "wearing of the green"). St Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish.[13][14] This story first appears in writing in 1726, though it may be older. In pagan Ireland, three was a significant number and the Irish had many triple deities, a fact that aided St Patrick in his evangelisation efforts.[15] The wearing of the 'St Patrick's Day Cross', especially in the World War I era, by the Irish, was also a popular custom. These St Patrick's Day Crosses have a Celtic Christian cross made of paper that is "covered with silk or ribbon of different colours, and a bunch or rosette of green silk in the centre."[16]
The colour green has been associated with Ireland since at least the 1640s, when the green harp flag was used by the Irish Catholic Confederation. Green ribbons and shamrocks have been worn on St Patrick's Day since at least the 1680s.[17] Green was adopted as the colour of the Friendly Brothers of St Patrick,[18] an Irish fraternity founded in about 1750.[19] However, when the Order of St. Patrick—an Anglo-Irish chivalric order—was founded in 1783 it adopted blue as its colour. This led to blue being associated with St Patrick. In the 1790s, green became associated with Irish nationalism when it was used by the United Irishmen. This was a republican organisation—led mostly by Protestants but with many Catholic members—who launched a rebellion in 1798 against British rule. The phrase "wearing of the green" comes from a song of the same name, which laments United Irishmen supporters being persecuted for wearing green. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, the colour green and its association with Saint Patrick's Day grew.[20]
Celebrations by region
Saint Patrick's feast day, as a kind of national day, was already being celebrated by the Irish in Europe in the ninth and tenth centuries. In later times, he became more and more widely known as the patron of Ireland.[21] Saint Patrick's feast day was finally placed on the universal liturgical calendar in the Catholic Church due to the influence of Waterford-born Franciscan scholar Luke Wadding[22] in the early 1600s. Saint Patrick's Day thus became a holy day of obligation for Roman Catholics in Ireland. It is also a feast day in the Church of Ireland. The church calendar avoids the observance of saints' feasts during certain solemnities, moving the saint's day to a time outside those periods. Saint Patrick's Day is occasionally affected by this requirement, when 17 March falls during Holy Week. This happened in 1940, when Saint Patrick's Day was observed on 3 April to avoid it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and again in 2008, where it was officially observed on 14 March. Saint Patrick's Day will not fall within Holy Week again until 2160.[23][24] However, the secular celebration is always held on 17 March.
In 1903, Saint Patrick's Day became an official public holiday in Ireland. This was thanks to the Bank Holiday (Ireland) Act 1903, an act of the United Kingdom Parliament introduced by Irish Member of Parliament James O'Mara.[25] O'Mara later introduced the law that required that pubs and bars be closed on 17 March after drinking got out of hand, a provision that was repealed in the 1970s. The first Saint Patrick's Day parade held in the Irish Free State was held in Dublin in 1931 and was reviewed by the then Minister of Defence Desmond Fitzgerald.
In the mid-1990s the government of the Republic of Ireland began a campaign to use Saint Patrick's Day to showcase Ireland and its culture.[26] The government set up a group called St Patrick's Festival, with the aims:
- To offer a national festival that ranks amongst all of the greatest celebration in the world
- To create energy and excitement throughout Ireland via innovation, creativity, grassroots involvement, and marketing activity
- To provide the opportunity and motivation for people of Irish descent (and those who sometimes wish they were Irish) to attend and join in the imaginative and expressive celebrations
- To project, internationally, an accurate image of Ireland as a creative, professional and sophisticated country with wide appeal.[27]
The first Saint Patrick's Festival was held on 17 March 1996. In 1997, it became a three-day event, and by 2000 it was a four-day event. By 2006, the festival was five days long; more than 675,000 people attended the 2009 parade. Overall 2009's five-day festival saw close to 1 million visitors, who took part in festivities that included concerts, outdoor theatre performances, and fireworks.[28] Skyfest forms the centrepiece of the festival.
The topic of the 2004 Saint Patrick's Symposium was "Talking Irish", during which the nature of Irish identity, economic success, and the future were discussed. Since 1996, there has been a greater emphasis on celebrating and projecting a fluid and inclusive notion of "Irishness" rather than an identity based around traditional religious or ethnic allegiance. The week around Saint Patrick's Day usually involves Irish language speakers using more Irish during Seachtain na Gaeilge ("Irish Language Week").[citation needed]
Christian leaders in Ireland have expressed concern about the secularisation of St Patrick's Day. In The Word magazine's March 2007 issue, Fr. Vincent Twomey wrote, "It is time to reclaim St Patrick's Day as a church festival." He questioned the need for "mindless alcohol-fuelled revelry" and concluded that "it is time to bring the piety and the fun together."[29]
As well as Dublin, many other cities, towns, and villages in Ireland hold their own parades and festivals, including Cork, Belfast, Derry, Galway, Kilkenny, Limerick, and Waterford.
The biggest celebrations outside Dublin are in Downpatrick, County Down, where Saint Patrick is rumoured to be buried. In 2004, according to Down District Council, the week-long Saint Patrick's Festival had more than 2,000 participants and 82 floats, bands, and performers and was watched by more than 30,000 people.[citation needed]
The shortest St Patrick's Day parade in the world takes place in Dripsey, Cork. The parade lasts just 100 yards and travels between the village's two pubs.[30]
In Buenos Aires, a party is held in the downtown street of Reconquista, where there are several Irish pubs;[31][32] in 2006, there were 50,000 people in this street and the pubs nearby.[33] Neither the Catholic Church nor the Irish community, the fifth largest in the world outside Ireland,[34] take part in the organisation of the parties.
One of the longest-running and largest Saint Patrick's Day parades in North America occurs each year in Montreal,[35] whose city flag includes a shamrock in its lower-right quadrant. The annual celebration has been organised by the United Irish Societies of Montreal since 1929. The parade has been held annually without interruption since 1824. St. Patrick's Day itself, however, has been celebrated in Montreal since as far back as 1759 by Irish soldiers in the Montreal Garrison following the British conquest of New France.
In Manitoba, the Irish Association of Manitoba runs an annual three-day festival of music and culture based around Saint Patrick's Day.[36]
In 2013, the CelticFest Vancouver Society organised an annual festival in downtown Vancouver to celebrate the Celtic Nations and their culture. This event, which includes a parade, occurs the weekend closest to Saint Patrick's Day.[37]
In Quebec City, there was a parade from 1837 to 1926. The Quebec City St-Patrick Parade returned in 2010 after an absence of more than 84 years. For the occasion, a portion of the New York Police Department Pipes and Drums were present as special guests.
There has been a parade held in Toronto since at least 1863.[38] The Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team was known as the Toronto St. Patricks from 1919 to 1927, and wore green jerseys. In 1999, when the Maple Leafs played on Saint Patrick's Day, they wore green Saint Patrick's retro uniforms. There is a large parade in the city's downtown core on the Sunday prior to 17 March which attracts over 100,000 spectators.[citation needed]
Some groups, notably Guinness, have lobbied to make Saint Patrick's Day a national holiday.[39]

In March 2009, the Calgary Tower changed its top exterior lights to new green CFL bulbs just in time for Saint Patrick's Day. Part of an environmental non-profit organisation's campaign (Project Porchlight), the green represented environmental concerns. Approximately 210 lights were changed in time for Saint Patrick's Day, and resembled a Leprechaun's hat. After a week, white CFLs took their place. The change was estimated to save the Calgary Tower some $12,000 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 104 tonnes.[40]
Great Britain
In Great Britain, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother used to present bowls of shamrock flown over from Ireland to members of the Irish Guards, a regiment in the British Army consisting primarily of soldiers from both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The Irish Guards still wear shamrock on this day, flown in from Ireland.[41]
Christian denominations in Great Britain observing his feast day include The Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church.[42]
Horse racing at the Cheltenham Festival attracts large numbers of Irish people, both residents of Britain and many who travel from Ireland, and usually coincides with Saint Patrick's Day.[43]
Birmingham holds the largest Saint Patrick's Day parade in Britain with a city centre parade[44] over a two-mile (3 km) route through the city centre. The organisers describe it as the third biggest parade in the world after Dublin and New York.[45]
London, since 2002, has had an annual Saint Patrick's Day parade which takes place on weekends around the 17th, usually in Trafalgar Square. In 2008 the water in the Trafalgar Square fountains was dyed green.
Liverpool has the highest proportion of residents with Irish ancestry of any English city.[46] This has led to a long-standing celebration on St Patrick's Day in terms of music, cultural events and the parade.
Manchester hosts a two-week Irish festival in the weeks prior to St Patrick's Day. The festival includes an Irish Market based at the city's town hall which flies the Irish tricolour opposite the Union Flag, a large parade as well as a large number of cultural and learning events throughout the two-week period.[47]
The Scottish town of Coatbridge, where the majority of the town's population are of Irish descent,[citation needed] also has a Saint Patrick's Day Festival which includes celebrations and parades in the town centre.[citation needed]
Glasgow has a considerably large Irish population; due, for the most part, to the Irish immigration during the 19th century. This immigration was the main cause in raising the population of Glasgow by over 100,000 people.[48] Due to this large Irish population, there is a considerable Irish presence in Glasgow with many Irish theme pubs and Irish interest groups who run annual celebrations on St Patrick's day in Glasgow. Glasgow began an annual Saint Patrick's Day parade and festival in 2007.[citation needed]
International Space Station

Astronauts on board the International Space Station have celebrated the festival in different ways. Irish-American Catherine Coleman played a hundred-year-old flute belonging to Matt Molloy and a tin whistle belonging to Paddy Moloney, both members of the Irish music group The Chieftains, while floating weightless in the space station on Saint Patrick's Day in 2011.[49][50][51] Her performance was later included in a track called "The Chieftains in Orbit" on the group's album, Voice of Ages.[52]
Chris Hadfield took photographs of Ireland from earth orbit, and a picture of himself wearing green clothing in the space station, and posted them online on Saint Patrick's Day in 2013. He also posted online a recording of himself singing "Danny Boy" in space.[53][54]
Saint Patrick's Parades are now held in many locations across Japan.[55] The first parade, in Tokyo, was organised by The Irish Network Japan (INJ) in 1992. Nowadays parades and other events related to Saint Patrick's Day spread across almost the entire month of March.
The St. Patrick's Society of Selangor, which has been in existence since 1925, organises the annual St. Patrick's Ball, the biggest St Patrick's Day celebration in Asia. Guinness Anchor Berhad also organises 36 parties across the country in places like the Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru, Malacca, Ipoh, Kuantan, Kota Kinabalu, Miri and Kuching.
The tiny island of Montserrat is known as "Emerald Island of the Caribbean" because of its founding by Irish refugees from Saint Kitts and Nevis. Along with Ireland and the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador, St Patrick's Day is a public holiday. The holiday also commemorates a failed slave uprising that occurred on 17 March 1768.[56]
The first Saint Patrick's Day parade took place in Russia in 1992.[57] Since 1999, there is an annual international "Saint Patrick's Day" festival in Moscow and other Russian cities.[58] The Moscow parade has both official and unofficial parts. The first seems like a military parade and is performed in collaboration with the Moscow government and the Irish embassy in Moscow. The unofficial parade is performed by volunteers and seems more like a carnival and show with juggling, stilts, jolly-jumpers and Celtic music. In 2014, Moscow Irish Week was celebrated from 12 to 23 March, which includes St. Patrick's Day on 17 March. Over 70 events celebrating Irish culture in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Voronezh, and Volgograd were sponsored by the Irish Embassy, the Moscow City Government, and other organisations.[59]
South Korea
The Irish Association of Korea has celebrated Saint Patrick's Day since 1976 in Seoul (the capital city of South Korea). The place of parade and festival has been moved from Itaewon and Daehangno to Cheonggyecheon.[60]
While Saint Patrick's Day in Switzerland is commonly celebrated on 17 March with festivities similar to those in neighbouring central European countries, it is not unusual for Swiss students to organise celebrations in their own living spaces on Saint Patrick's Eve. Most popular are usually those in Zurich's Kreis 4. Traditionally, guests also contribute with beverages and dress accordingly in green.[61]
United States
Saint Patrick's Day, while not a legal holiday in the United States, is nonetheless widely recognised and observed throughout the country as a celebration of Irish and Irish American culture. Celebrations include prominent displays of the colour green, eating and drinking, religious observances, and numerous parades. The holiday has been celebrated on the North American continent since the late eighteenth century.

For most Irish-Americans, this holiday is partially religious but overwhelmingly festive. For most Irish people in Ireland the day has little to do with religion at all.

Like many other forms of carnival, St. Patrick's Day is a feast day, a break from Lent in which adherents are allowed to temporarily abandon rigorous fasting by indulging in the forbidden. Since alcohol is often proscribed during Lent the copious consumption of alcohol is seen as an integral part of St. Patrick's day.

In 1681, the English traveller, Thomas Dineley noted a series of St Patrick's Day practices which in one form or another, became standard markers for those celebrating the day. Dineley observed that the Irish wore Celtic crosses, had green ribbon in their hats, pinned shamrock to their clothes, and, after demanding St Patrick's groat from their masters, drank so that 'very few of the zealous are found sober at night'. The crosses, which were predominantly made and worn by children, consisted of a paper or card backing and featuring couloured ribbons as decoration, all of which were centered around a Celtic cross. In 1805, the 'little girl's St Patrick's Day Cross' was described as a cross of paper 'wrapped or covered with silk or ribbon of different colours, and a bunch or rosette of green silk in the centre'.

Glass Yorkshire Dispenser
Great Dispenser!
I bought these for my co-workers for Christmas and they LOVE them! I bought 2 of these and 2 of the Savanna dispensers. Both look great!
December 27, 2013
Great quality product at very affordable price!
I ordered this item for my daughter's wedding reception. I was so excited to find it from World Market at such a reasonable price, and it was shipped in a very timely manner. I will definitely be checking this website for future purchases!

The whole familly loves the jug
I ordered 4 of the jugs and when they arrived, one was in pieces. It was on a Friday evening and I didn't think I could get anything resolved but decided to call the customer service number, just in case. To my surprise, they answered, took all my info and placed another order. My replacement jug came in 5 days. I was very pleased with my service and will order again.
July 28, 2013
Exactly what I was looking for
I haven't used it yet, but it is exactly what I was looking for. I was happy I could order it online because I don't live near a store and the price wasn't bad either!
July 18, 2013
Adorable Design & Holds a Lot
I LOVE this dispenser! Not only can I pair it with Mason jar glasses that we use as cups it adds such a cute element to the BBQ or party decorations. It holds more than most dispensers so I don't have to refill every 10 minutes. My friend is even using this at her county wedding in a couple months.
Do make sure you wash it when you first get it and then tighten the nut on the back of the dispenser spout or it will leak. They ship it loose so it doesn't break with hot/cold climate changes so you will need to hand tighten it as the directions recommend. The spout is made of plastic, but it's solid enough - though metal would make this piece perfect.
Also, I fill the bottom with a layer of glass marbles/beads you can buy at a craft store to just under the spout so you don't have the problem of so much liquid being left in it and no way to get it out. The marbles displace the empty space below the spout. All in all, a solid buy with many uses.
June 26, 2013
Just what I wanted.
Love, love, love my drink dispenser. Just the old fashioned look I wanted. Made of very thick glass. The spicket seems very durable.
June 21, 2013
Great product
high quality for such an affordable price. I have been looking for a jar like this for so long, and most were $50+.
June 20, 2013
Great for fermenting Kombucha
I have been using this a few weeks for continuous Kombucha ferment and it works great. I haven't had any problems with the spigot leeking. This is a great value for you money and is really cute too. FYI, This is a two gallon container.

Comments On Aug 19, 2013:Works well, don't rely too much on the check valve. Bit dear for what it is but made the job easier.

Comments On May 10, 2013:This tool works great for bleeding the brake on your bike and keeping the mess down. However, the handle is too short, and that's why its getting 4 stars. It could really use a full size handle for leverage.

Comments On Nov 25, 2012:This is the second faulty brake bleeder I have purchased from Rocky Mountain and I am not happy, I think I will give up on these and go back to the old manual way of bleeding. The problem is that the check valve does not work. So it ends up bing an expensive bit of hose.
