Made from a combination of two herbs, the Longstamen Onion Bulb (Bulbus Fritillariae cirrhosae) and Tangerine Peel (Pericaipium Citrus), HUATANDAN helps to improve the respiratory system function and ensure the smooth flow of qi that is vital for robust health.
The longstamen onion bulb known as Xiebai in Chinese tastes pungent and bitter and known for its cooling properties while the tangerine peel is the pericarp of the citrus fruit with the opposite properties. In combination both help balance the ying and yang, which is pertinent in maintaining a good qi flow in the body.
Studies conducted in China on the Longstamen Onion bulb found compounds that inhibit the contraction of bronchial muscle and decrease the secretion of mucus, which in turn reduces phlegm.
Traditional healers have been using the herb to ensure the smooth flow of qi all over the body for good health. In Chinese traditional medicine, qi is the energy that flows freely in a healthy body and is weakened or blocked in an unhealthy person.
In homeopathy, the Long Stamen Onion Bulb has been widely recommended in treating clinical conditions like tightness and pain in the chest area that is often caused by the obstruction to the qi due to accumulation of phlegm. It has been used to treat many types of cough, particularly chronic cough. It moistens dry mucous membranes and clears stubborn phlegm, which in turn alleviates cough. It is most effective against symptoms that indicate the suppression of qi.
The Longstamen Onion Bulb also helps to relieve stabbing pain on the chest and back due to blood stasis and overcome stagnant qi in the digestive system that leads to diarrhea and dysentery.
The other ingredient, the tangerine peel, helps regulate the flow of qi, invigorates the function of spleen and clears phlegm. Both ingredients when combined help to balance the complementary forces of the ying and yang. This in turn improves the qi flow in the body and helps get rid of stubborn phlegm and cough. Huatandan offers the goodness of Longstamen Onion Bulb and Tangerine Peel in the form of vegecaps.
|Bulbus Fritillariae Cirrhosae
|250 mg
|Pericarpium Citrus Reticulate
|250 mg
Traditionally used for reducing phelgm and for relieving cough.
Adult:2 vegacaps each time, 3 times a day.(Refer to insert for dosage details)
Children(2-12 years old): 1 vegecap each time, 3 times a day.
This remedy offered by Era Herbal Sdn.Bhd is highly recommended for children who often suffer from stubborn phlegm and adults who suffer from symptoms related to the lungs. This remedy is 100 percent vegetarian, contains no preservative or coloring and is Halal certified.

Hasty Workmanship
This ring is very pretty and I do love it, but there is a tiny place near one stone where the silver not complete. It makes me worry that the stone in that place could at some time fall out, although all stones do appear to be tightly set. Also, it is MUCH smaller than the pictures depict. Maybe a picture with it on a finger would help demonstrate how tiny it really looks in scale on a person.

One of my big bug bears is phishing websites. Especially at this time of the year, when you're doing the last minute hunt for deals and you get caught out by fraudsters which could potentially ruin your Christmas.
Who wouldn't think that 50% off at Superdry for example would be to authentic.
The reason for this article is what @surreypolice twitter put out.
Online shopping for gifts this xmas? Our #ElfOnTheShelf is #SmartonSecurity! Look for the https before the website address you buy from
This albeit is almost correct there are things that need to be noted.
- Anyone, anywhere can get an SSL certificate (Symantic, Rapid SSL, Comodo) - this does not confide that your website is authentic is secure. All it does it add an extra layer of security and encryption to data sent and stored on the server. This is not hackproof!
- If you are unsure of the website do not visit it, instead copy the URL (website address) into google and search for it. 9 times out 10 you'll come up with results saying this is a phishing site or fake.
- Check that if its from an unofficial source that you check the official website to see i this is deal is on or available elsewhere.
- Check for grammer, phishing emails tend to have a lot of bad spelling that does not make sense.
- If it appears to good to be true then don't buy on the site.
- Look for accredited icons on the site, if its approved by the payment merchant then you will be able to click on the icon to bring up, up to date urls.
- Don't transfer £100,000 to the prince of Nigeria.
- Pay using a payment merchant (PayPal, WorldPay, SagePay) if available on the website - these type of websites have to physically be reviewed by the merchants and have to past a strict set of rules in order for the website owner to use them.
- Always pay online using a credit card - the bank fraud systems are very smart and can identify fraudulent websites and transactions.
- If in doubt don't purchase anything off that site.
Some websites do look authentic, and as a developer i can spot the more authentic looking ones usually by code review/comparison, but I can understand that this is hard for more vulnerable people to do.
Always think that if you sign up to a website, that the owner of the website could have your personal details, and this could bring on identity theft.
Happy to answer queries on websites in comments below.

Did good work on Honda CRV. Replaced a/c and when it was not right the first time (due to a defective replacement part), they pulled it back out and replaced it again with one that works. You basically have a honest shop here ... probably not cheapest in town, but easily among the highest quality providers.

Open Road – Part 2, scene 5
Posted by r1.rssmix.org on June 17, 2017
Release Year: 2014
Studio: RagingStallion
Cast: Donnie Dean, Esteban Del Toro
Genres: Anal Sex, Blowjob, Kissing, Rimming, Jocks, Fingering, Uncut, Spitting, Outdoors, Cumshots
Esteban Del Toro is lost. He's shuffling down a dusty road with nothing but vineyards in every direction and the highway far away. A truck in the distance may be his only hope. He tells the driver, Donnie Dean, that he's lost, but Donnie is willing to help him get his bearings if Donnie can have a go at the 8 uncut inches Esteban is packing. Esteban whips it out and pulls off his shirt. He's all smooth sculpted muscle. Donnie sheds his clothes. He's got a body packed with tight muscle and a nice coating of hair. Donnie sucks Esteban on the tailgate of his truck, then jumps up on the bed and aims his ass at Esteban's face. Esteban plugs Donnie's hole first with his tongue and then with his cock in front of all of the traffic on the distant highway. They move down to the bed of the truck and Esteban plows Donnie on his back, running his hands through the hair on Donnie's chest and belly. Donnie grabs his cock and Esteban grabs Donnie's nuts and they literally squeeze the load out of Donnie. Esteban keeps fucking until Donnie's cum subsides, then blasts his own load.

Really? Why most of the riders are afraid of winter? Why it's natural for automobilist to take their car and drive through rain and cold wind, and when it comes to motorcycle, it's like a risky move? If you like riding motorcycle we will give you some tips that will make your winter epic, just seat and read. 1-CHOOSE THE ADEQUATE GEARFirst thing you should consider before jumping on your bike is to have the proper winter gear, winter jacket, winter gloves, winter pants, and it proper boot, yes it's those gear are expensive, but they will give you the necessary comfort and warm that you need during your trip, and if you are not so meticulous you can get all that stuff for around 600€.2-PREPARE YOUR BIKEThe most adequate bike for winter will be a dual sport bike, but if you don't have this type of bike, just make sure all the fluids are ok, if you don't have engine and chassis protection, it's time for you to make it happen, heated grips are a must have in the winter and a lot of manufacturer are including them in the recent bike, like the BMW S1000RR, the tires must be on the top of your priority, because they are the first source of the grip, so make sure they are if perfect shape, and don't hesitate to put some fresh tires if you can, check your battery each night, because if you have an issue with your battery in a cold morning you can live at the garage, just make sure that your battery is charged (12v minimum).3-RIDE SAFELYWe think the most common mistake of motorcycle riders is their mind set, just keep in mind that you're in winter and the roads are wet, and dirty and visibility is diminished, cars are everywhere, and you must be prepare for anything, so the best way to be in good position if anything happen is to anticipate, just look far ahead, reduce your cruising speed, don't rely on the brakes, instead use your engine brake, and last thing to consider is the stripe and paint in the road: cross walk, continuous line, roundabout, just be careful and try your best to not ride over those paint.We thing those 3 things we mentioned above are the key to have fun on your bike during the winter, now it depend on your skill level, your bike, and the weather (it is more than risky if you try to ride in the snow or on a blizzard), it's up to you now: hibernate your bike for winter, or not hibernate your bike in the winter and enjoy it and have a remarkable experience if your life.TweetShare 0 Prev Next

While the location of the estate places it within a close proximity of Sandton and the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria with all their amenities, plans for a niche, country-styled shopping centre just beyond the gatehouse have already been tabled. This will ensure that homeowners will never have to journey far beyond the gates should they so wish. In the interim, just 15 kilometres away, Fourways Shopping district meets all the needs of our community including a state-of-the-art new Life Hospital and medical centre.
The ever-elusive country feel of the estate goes far further than the simple aesthetics of the clubhouse, winding paths and architecture of the homes, it stretches right into the very natural world that surrounds the course and the estate.
Landscapers and Conservationists continue to remain a permanent feature of the estate, constantly maintaining the grounds, nature parks, bridle paths and the golf course. Sensitive ecological areas will be left untouched, while wetlands have been restored and replanted.
The picturesque Crocodile River runs through the heart of the estate and is densely populated with century old indigenous trees and bush. A number of rapids form part of the 6.5km stretch and it is abundant with fish and bird life. Once choked with invasive alien vegetation, the Crocodile is being cleared and, at every uncovered turn, reveals its own hidden magic. Sparkling rapids, heron-haunted sand banks, quiet shallows and inlets, and natural water features give a different personality to every stretch. Every wind in the flow creates another secret spot, shaded and private, for the enjoyment of the local fauna and flora. One can easily spend hours fishing for Yellow Fish, Florida and Black Bass, Carp and Barbel.
Elsewhere, clearing gives way to planting. The rolling veld is being accented and shaded with thousands of indigenous trees, such as: Combretum erythrophyllum (river bushwillow), Celtis africana (white stinkwood), Olea europaea subsp. africana (wild olive), and many Rhus species - including Rhus pendulina (the river or willow karee) and Rhus lancea (karee). Wild grasses, smaller plants and groundcovers like Tulbaghia violacea (wild garlic), several aloe species, and Cussonia paniculata (kiepersol), amongst many others, are also being re-introduced. Small game (such as duiker, antelope, and guinea fowl, amongst others) continue to be introduced to complement the existing wildlife as the open areas within Blair Atholl are in excess of a 1000 acres.
A remarkable 40 000 big trees have already been planted, with many, many more on the way.
With the Cradle of Mankind just over the rise, it's no wonder the folks of Blair Atholl think of these efforts as 'replanting Eden'.
A new take on old world family values, the Blair Atholl has always kept a significant focus on the needs of the active modern family in the context of country living.
From ensuring every home has fibre-optic connectivity to the winding bridle paths for horse riding, cycling and walking, from the Village Green to the Wellness Centre, Blair Atholl offers every family every opportunity to engage in a host of entertainment and physical activities in a completely secure environment.
Furthermore, the absence of walls combined with a shared set of values has quickly led to a sense of community amongst Blair Atholl families. One only has to spend an afternoon at the Village Green amidst the infectious laughter of our children at play with each other and their parents to fully appreciate how quickly and completely this sense of community has taken root on the estate.
No matter where you find yourself on this tranquil estate, it seems almost inconceivable that just over the rise there's an entire city of people living cloistered behind high walls, closed doors and burglar bars. If you can even call existing under the shadow of violence and crime living. And yet, within the low key palisade fence marking the perimeter the Blair Atholl, children play outside their homes and on the cobbled roads without a care in the world.
Access to the estate is controlled by guardhouses with biometric access connected via fibre-optics to a security nerve centre. No access without preauthorised arrangements.
Still, the facet of our security we are probably most pleased with is how unobtrusive this protective presence is.

January 1 – New Year's Day
New Year's Day is observed on January 1, the first day of the year on the modern Gregorian calendar as well as the Julian calendar used in ancient Rome. With most countries using the Gregorian calendar as their main calendar, New Year's Day is the closest thing to being the world's only truly global public holiday, often celebrated with fireworks at the stroke of midnight as the new year starts. January 1 on the Julian calendar corresponds to January 14 on the Gregorian calendar, and it is on that date that followers of some of the Eastern Orthodox churches celebrate the New Year.

January 17 – Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is a United States federal holiday marking the birthday of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It is observed on the third Monday of January each year, which is around the time of King's birthday, January 15. King was the chief spokesman for nonviolent activism in the civil rights movement, which successfully protested racial discrimination in federal and state law. He was assassinated by a prison escapee in 1968 on the balcony of a hotel as he went to get some fresh air before making a speech. The campaign for a federal holiday in King's honor began soon after his assassination. Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law in 1983, and it was first observed in 1986. At first, some states resisted observing the holiday as such, giving it alternative names or combining it with other holidays. It was officially observed in all 50 states for the first time in 2000.

January 22 – Roe vs Wade Day
Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court on the issue of abortion. The Court decided that a right to privacy under the due process clause in the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution extends to a woman's decision to have an abortion, but that right must be balanced against the state's two legitimate interests for regulating abortions: protecting prenatal life and protecting the mother's health. Saying that these state interests become stronger over the course of a pregnancy, the Court resolved this balancing test by tying state regulation of abortion to the mother's current trimester of pregnancy. The Court later rejected Roe's trimester framework, while affirming Roe's central holding that a person has a right to abortion up until viability. The Roe decision defined "viable" as being "potentially able to live outside the mother's womb, albeit with artificial aid," adding that viability "is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks." In disallowing many state and federal restrictions on abortion in the United States, Roe v. Wade prompted a national debate that continues today, about issues including whether and to what extent abortion should be legal, who should decide the legality of abortion, what methods the Supreme Court should use in constitutional adjudication, and what the role should be of religious and moral views in the political sphere. Roe v. Wade reshaped national politics, dividing much of the nation into pro-choice and pro-life camps, while activating grassroots movements on both sides.

January 27 – International Holocaust Remembrance Day
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, 27 January, is an international memorial day for the victims of the Holocaust, the genocide that resulted in the annihilation of 6 million Jews, 2 million Gypsies (Roma and Sinti), 15,000 homosexual people and millions of others by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. It was designated by the United Nations General Assembly resolution 60/7 on 1 November 2005 during the 42nd plenary session. The resolution came after a special session was held earlier that year on 24 January 2005 during which the United Nations General Assembly marked the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps and the end of the Holocaust.

January 31 – World Leprosy Day
World Leprosy Day is observed internationally on January 31 or its nearest Sunday to increase the public awareness of the Leprosy or Hansen's Disease. This day was chosen in commemoration of the death of Gandhi, the leader of India who understood the importance of leprosy. Leprosy is one of the oldest recorded diseases in the world. It is an infectious chronic disease that targets the nervous system, especially the nerves in the cooler parts of the body - the hands, feet, and face.

Chinese New Year is an important traditional Chinese holiday. In China, it is also known as the Spring Festival, the literal translation of the modern Chinese name. Chinese New Year celebrations traditionally ran from Chinese New Year's Eve, the last day of the last month of the Chinese calendar, to the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month, making the festival the longest in the Chinese calendar. Because the Chinese calendar is lunisolar, the Chinese New Year is often referred to as the "Lunar New Year".
The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Traditionally, the festival was a time to honor deities as well as ancestors. Chinese New Year is celebrated in countries and territories with significant Chinese populations, including Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mauritius, Philippines, and also in Chinatowns elsewhere. Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the lunar new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors.

February 14 --- Valentine's Day
Website for image of flowers: http://www.funny-potato.com/valentine-flowers.html
Saint Valentine's Day, commonly shortened to Valentine's Day, is an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. The day is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 500 AD. It was deleted from the Roman calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI, but its religious observance is still permitted. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). The day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.
Modern Valentine's Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.
American Heart Month
In 1963 the President of the United States declared February the American heart Month. Read below President Obama's proclamation this year.
January 31, 2011
Presidential Proclamation--American Heart Month, 2011
Heart disease is a staggering health problem and a leading cause of death for American women and men. Thankfully, there are steps each of us can take to prevent this chronic disease. In a time when one in three adults in the United States is living with some form of cardiovascular disease, American Heart Month provides an important reminder that it is never too early to take action to improve our heart health.
All Americans should be aware of risk factors that can lead to heart disease, including: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, physical inactivity, tobacco use, and family history. Practicing everyday habits such as eating a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, limiting sodium consumption, exercising regularly, avoiding tobacco, and moderating alcohol intake can reduce these risks. Each of us can be proactive about our well being, and my Administration is committed to helping Americans protect themselves from chronic conditions like heart disease. Under the Affordable Care Act, all new individual and group health plans must now provide recommended preventive care and services without a copayment, coinsurance, or deductible. These potentially life saving screenings include blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, and body mass index tests, as well as counseling on quitting smoking, losing weight, and eating well. To learn more about the risk factors and prevention of heart disease, I encourage all Americans to visit:http://www.cdc.gov/heartdisease/
To save lives in the fight against cardiovascular disease, my Administration is investing in world class research to prevent and treat this and other chronic diseases. We are also continuing to raise awareness of heart disease and its risk factors among Americans of all ages. First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! initiative is safeguarding healthier hearts for the next generation by addressing the factors that contribute to childhood obesity and its serious health consequences. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's The Heart Truth campaign sends women of all ages an urgent message about their risk of heart disease. In support of women's heart health, I encourage all Americans to wear red or the campaign's Red Dress Pin on National Wear Red Day on Friday, February 4 in honor of the movement to increase awareness of women's heart disease. Learn more by visiting: www.HeartTruth.gov
During American Heart Month, we honor the health professionals, researchers, and heart health ambassadors whose dedication enables countless Americans to live full and active lives. This month, let us rededicate ourselves to reducing the burden of heart disease by raising awareness, taking steps to improve our own heart health, and encouraging our colleagues, friends, and family to do the same.
In acknowledgement of the importance of the ongoing fight against cardiovascular disease, the Congress, by Joint Resolution approved December 30, 1963, as amended (77 Stat. 843; 36 U.S.C. 101), has requested that the President issue an annual proclamation designating February as "American Heart Month."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim February 2011 as American Heart Month, and I invite all Americans to participate in National Wear Red Day on February 4, 2011. I also invite the Governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, officials of other areas subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, and the American people to join me in recognizing and reaffirming our commitment to fighting cardiovascular disease.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirty-first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand eleven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fifth.
Black History Month
Black History Month is a remembrance of the events in the history of the African diaspora. Since 1976, it is celebrated annually in the United States of America and Canada in February and the United Kingdom in the month of October. In the U.S., Black History Month is also referred to as African-American History Month.
Black History Month actually started as Negro History Week in 1926 by Carter G. Woodson. The goal of Black History Week was to educate the American people about African-Americans' cultural backgrounds and reputable achievements.
When Carter G. Woodson started Negro History Week, his purpose was for the history of African Americans to become considered a more significant part of American history as a whole.[2] According to historian John Hope Franklin, Woodson "continued to express hope that Negro History Week would outlive its usefulness". The purpose of Black History Month is to promote awareness of African American history to the general public. It is arguable that despite the opinions of several critics, Black History Month has several advantages, and to an extent, Woodson's hopes were realized. During Black History Month, African American history is taught to thousands of students at the elementary, high school and university levels respectively. African American history is an extremely important part of American history, and it is almost impossible to find an American History textbook that does not include passages about black history.

Mother's Day, May, 9, 2010
The modern Mother's Day is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in May or in March/April, as a day to honour mothers and motherhood. In the UK and Ireland it follows the old traditions of Mothering Sunday, celebrated in March/April…this day emerged from a custom of mother worship in ancient Greece, which kept a festival to Cybele, a great mother of Greek gods.{Encyclopædia Britannica|(1959)Vol.15,p. 849} This festival was held around the Vernal Equinox around Asia Minor and eventually in Rome itself from the Ides of March (15 March) to 18 March.
The ancient Romans also had another holiday, Matronalia, that was dedicated to Juno, though mothers were usually given gifts on this day.
In Europe there were several long standing traditions where a specific Sunday was set aside to honor motherhood and mothers such as Mothering Sunday. Mothering Sunday celebrations are part of the liturgical calendar in several Christian denominations, including Anglicans, and in the Catholic calendar is marked as Laetare Sunday, the fourth Sunday in Lent to honour the Virgin Mary and your "mother" church (the main church of the area). Children and young people who were "in service" (servants in richer households) were given a day off on that date so they could visit their families (or, originally, return to their "mother church). The children would pick wild flowers along the way to place them in the church or to give them to their mothers as gifts.
International Women's Day was celebrated for the first time in 28 February 1909, in the US,[2] by which time Anna Jarvis had already begun her national campaign in the US. It is now celebrated in many countries on March 8.
The "Mother's Day Proclamation" by Julia Ward Howe was one of the early calls to celebrate Mother's Day in the United States. Written in 1870, Howe's Mother's Day Proclamation was a pacifist reaction to the carnage of the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War. The Proclamation was tied to Howe's feminist belief that women had a responsibility to shape their societies at the political level.
Some websites dedicated to Mother's Day:
June 5th—World Environment Day
World Environment Day was June 5th and the horrific fallout from the oil spill makes us wonder: why is it that we forget that as we know it, we have only this one planet to live on? Let's give a silent tribute to the environment with a prayer to seek our utmost to keep the Earth beautiful, loveable and livable.
World Environment Day (WED) is a day that stimulates awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and public action. It is on 5 June. It was the day that United Nations Conference on the Human Environment began. The United Nations Conference on the Human Environment was from 5-16 June 1972. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. The first World Environment Day was on 1973. World Environment Day is hosted every year by a different city with a different theme and is commemorated with an international exposition in the week of 5 June. World Environment Day is in summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
"Stockholm was without doubt the landmark event in the growth of international environmentalism," writes John McCormick in the book Reclaiming Paradise. "It was the first occasion on which the political, social and economic problems of the global environment were discussed at an intergovernmental forum with a view to actually taking corrective action."
Under the theme 'Many Species. One Planet. One Future', this year's event will celebrate the incredible diversity of life on Earth as part of the 2010 International Year of Biodiversity.
This year's global host, Rwanda – a country of exceptional biodiversity that has made huge strides on environmental protection – will lead the celebrations with three days of keynote events.
Thousands of activities will also be organized worldwide, with beach clean-ups, concerts, exhibits, film festivals, community events and much more.

June 18th---Father's Day
Father's Day is a day honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. It is celebrated on the third Sunday of June in 55 of the world's countries and on other days elsewhere. It complements Mother's Day, the celebration honoring mothers.
Father's Day is a celebration inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting. It is also celebrated to honor and commemorate our fathers and forefathers. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities. The first observance of Father's Day is believed to have been held on June 19, 1910 through the efforts of Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington. After listening to a church sermon at Spokane's Central Methodist Episcopal Church in 1909 about the newly recognized Mother's Day, Dodd felt strongly that fatherhood needed recognition, as well.[1] She wanted a celebration that honored fathers like her own father, William Smart, a Civil War veteran who was left to raise his family alone when his wife died giving birth to their sixth child.
It took many years to make the holiday official. In spite of support from the YWCA, the YMCA, and churches, Father's Day ran the risk of disappearing from the calendar.[3] Where Mother's Day was met with enthusiasm, Father's Day was often met with laughter.[3] The holiday was gathering attention slowly, but for the wrong reasons. It was the target of much satire, parody and derision, including jokes from the local newspaper Spokesman-Review.[3] Many people saw it as the first step in filling the calendar with mindless promotions.
A bill to accord national recognition of the holiday was introduced in Congress in 1913.[4] In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson went to Spokane to speak in a Father's Day celebration and wanted to make it official, but Congress resisted, fearing that it would become commercialized.[2] US President Calvin Coolidge recommended in 1924 that the day be observed by the nation, but stopped short of issuing a national proclamation. Two earlier attempts to formally recognize the holiday had been defeated by Congress.[5] In 1957, Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honoring mothers, thus "[singling] out just one of our two parents"[5] In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers, designating the third Sunday in June as Father's Day.[2] Six years later, the day was made a permanent national holiday when President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1972.
In addition to Father's Day, International Men's Day is celebrated in many countries on November 19 for men and boys who are not fathers.

June 19th—Juneteenth—Freedom Day or Emancipation Day
Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, is an American holiday honoring African American heritage and celebrated by people of all ethnic and racial backgrounds.[citation needed] It commemorates the announcement of the abolition of slavery in the U.S. State of Texas in 1865. Celebrated on June 19, the term is a portmanteau of June and nineteenth, and is recognized as a state holiday in 36 states of the United States.
The holiday originated in Galveston, Texas; for more than a century, the state of Texas was the primary home of Juneteenth celebrations, and since 1980, Juneteenth has been an official state holiday in Texas. It is considered a "partial staffing holiday", meaning that state offices do not close, but some employees will be using a floating holiday to take the day off. Its informal observance has spread to some other states, with a few celebrations even taking place in other countries.
As of March 2010, 36 states[1] and the District of Columbia have recognized Juneteenth as either a state holiday or state holiday observance; these are Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas,, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Though Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862, with an effective date of January 1, 1863, it had minimal immediate effect on most slaves' day-to-day lives, particularly in Texas, which was almost entirely under Confederate control. Texas was resistant to the Emancipation Proclamation, and though slavery was very prevalent in East Texas, it was not as common in the Western areas of Texas, particularly the Hill Country, where most German-Americans were opposed to the practice. Juneteenth commemorates June 18 and 19, 1865. June 18 is the day Union General Gordon Granger and 2,000 federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to take possession of the state and enforce the emancipation of its slaves. On June 19, 1865, legend has it while standing on the balcony of Galveston's Ashton Villa, Granger read the contents of "General Order No. 3":
The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. The freedmen are advised to remain quietly at their present homes and work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere.
That day has since become known as Juneteenth, a name derived from a portmanteau of the words June and nineteenth.
Former slaves in Galveston rejoiced in the streets with jubilant celebrations. Juneteenth celebrations began in Texas the following year. Across many parts of Texas, freed people pooled their funds to purchase land specifically for their communities' increasingly large Juneteenth gatherings — including Houston's Emancipation Park, Mexia's Booker T. Washington Park, and Emancipation Park in Austin.
Ralph Ellison's second novel Juneteenth deals with this holiday and its traditions. Juneteenth was published posthumously.
Carolyn Meyer's novel Jubilee Journey is the story of one young biracial girl celebrating Juneteenth with her relatives in Texas, while also learning to be proud of her African American heritage.
Ann Rinaldi's historical novel Come Juneteenth is the story of how Juneteenth came to be, and follows the life of a young white plantation-owner's daughter in Texas during the Civil War whose family faces tragedy after their mulatto half-sister runs away when learning they lied to her about being free.

July 4th: History And Celebrations
Read all about the U.S. Independence Day!
Pictures on July 4th on wikipedia:
In the United States, Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, political speeches and ceremonies, and various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States. Independence Day is the national day of the United States.
During the American Revolution, the legal separation of the American colonies from Great Britain occurred on July 2, 1776, when the Second Continental Congress voted to approve a resolution of independence that had been proposed in June by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia. After voting for independence, Congress turned its attention to the Declaration of Independence, a statement explaining this decision, which had been prepared by a Committee of Five, with Thomas Jefferson as its principal author. Congress debated and revised the Declaration, finally approving it on July 4. A day earlier, John Adams had written to his wife Abigail:
"The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more."
Adams' prediction was off by two days. From the outset, Americans celebrated independence on July 4, the date shown on the much-publicized Declaration of Independence, rather than on July 2, the date the resolution of independence was approved in a closed session of Congress.
One of the most enduring myths about Independence Day is that Congress signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The myth had become so firmly established that, decades after the event and nearing the end of their lives, even the elderly Thomas Jefferson and John Adams had come to believe that they and the other delegates had signed the Declaration on the fourth. Most delegates actually signed the Declaration on August 2, 1776. In a remarkable series of coincidences, both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, two founding fathers of the United States and the only two men who signed the Declaration of Independence to become president, died on the same day: July 4, 1826, which was the United States' 50th anniversary.
*In 1777, thirteen gunshots were fired, once at morning and again as evening fell, on July 4 in Bristol, Rhode Island. Philadelphia celebrated the first anniversary in a manner a modern American would find quite familiar: an official dinner for the Continental Congress, toasts, 13-gun salutes, speeches, prayers, music, parades, troop reviews, and fireworks. Ships were decked with red, white, and blue bunting.
*In 1778, General George Washington marked July 4 with a double ration of rum for his soldiers and an artillery salute. Across the Atlantic Ocean, ambassadors John Adams and Benjamin Franklin held a dinner for their fellow Americans in Paris, France.
*In 1779, July 4 fell on a Sunday. The holiday was celebrated on Monday, July 5.
*In 1781, the Massachusetts General Court became the first state legislature to recognize July 4 as a state celebration.
*In 1783, Moravians in Salem, North Carolina, held a celebration of July 4 with a challenging music program assembled by Johann Friedrich Peter. This work was titled "The Psalm of Joy".
*In 1791 the first recorded use of the name "Independence Day" occurred.
*In 1820 the first Fourth of July celebration was held in Eastport, Maine which remains the largest in the state.
*In 1870, the U.S. Congress made Independence Day an unpaid holiday for federal employees.
*In 1938, Congress changed Independence Day to a paid federal holiday.
Independence Day is a national holiday marked by patriotic displays. Similar to other summer-themed events, Independence Day celebrations often take place outdoors. Independence Day is a federal holiday, so all non-essential federal institutions (like the postal service and federal courts) are closed on that day. Many politicians make it a point on this day to appear at a public event to praise the nation's heritage, laws, history, society, and people.
Families often celebrate Independence Day by hosting or attending a picnic or barbecue and take advantage of the day off and, in some years, long weekend to gather with relatives. Decorations (e.g., streamers, balloons, and clothing) are generally colored red, white, and blue, the colors of the American flag. Parades often are in the morning, while fireworks displays occur in the evening at such places as parks, fairgrounds, or town squares.
Independence Day fireworks are often accompanied by patriotic songs such as the national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner", "God Bless America", "America the Beautiful", "My Country, 'Tis of Thee", "This Land Is Your Land", "Stars and Stripes Forever", and, regionally, "Yankee Doodle" in northeastern states and "Dixie" in southern states. Some of the lyrics recall images of the Revolutionary War or the War of 1812.
Firework shows are held in many states, and many fireworks are sold for personal use or as an alternative to a public show. Safety concerns have led some states to ban fireworks or limit the sizes and types allowed. Illicit traffic transfers many fireworks from less restrictive states.
A salute of one gun for each state in the United States, called a "salute to the union," is fired on Independence Day at noon by any capable military base.
In 2009, New York City had the largest fireworks display in the country, with over 22 tons of pyrotechnics exploded. Other major displays are in Chicago on Lake Michigan; in San Diego over Mission Bay; in Boston on the Charles River; in St. Louis on the Mississippi River; and on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. During the annual Windsor-Detroit International Freedom Festival, Detroit, Michigan hosts one of the world's largest fireworks displays, over the Detroit River, to celebrate Independence Day in conjunction with Windsor, Ontario's celebration of Canada Day.
While the official observance always falls on July 4th, participation levels may vary according to which day of the week the 4th falls on. If the holiday falls in the middle of the week, some fireworks displays and celebrations may take place during the weekend for convenience, again, varying by region.

July 23rd: Parents Day (United States)
In the United States, Parents' Day is held on the fourth Sunday of every July. This was established in 1994 when President Bill Clinton signed a Congressional Resolution into law (36 U.S.C. § 135) for "recognizing, uplifting, and supporting the role of parents in the rearing of children."
In the United States, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said replacing "Mother's Day" and "Father's Day" with a "Parents' Day" should be considered, as an observance more consistent with a policy of minimizing traditional sex-based differences in parental roles.
Parent's Day in the United States is more or less a combination of Father's Day and Mother's Day. The occasion is quite enthusiastically celebrated across the country on the fourth Sunday of every July. Traditionally, the holiday is mainly observed by young children who present their parents with greeting cards, flowers and small gifts. Many children on this day get up earlier than their parents to make breakfasts for them and thus give them a treat. The occasion also witnesses many children organizing enjoyable activities like song or dramatic performances to provide entertainment to their parents. In turn, parents are found to take their kids out for a sumptuous dinner in the evening.
On this day, Citizens, organizations, and federal, state, and local governmental and legislative entities are encouraged to recognize Parents' Day through proclamations, activities, and educational efforts to recognize, uplift and support the role of parents in bringing up their children.
The Parents' Day Council plays an active role in celebrating and promoting Parents' Day through a range of events and activities. For example, the council honors "Parents of the Year" at local, state and national levels. Those who have been nominated or selected are people who exemplify the standard and ideal of positive parenthood. Exemplary parents from each state are nominated for "National Parents of the Year".
Parents' Day is a popular time for people to send cards and gifts, including flowers, cakes and food hampers, to those who play an important role as a positive parental figure in their lives. It is also a time for families to come together for lunches or dinners. Special tributes to parental figures who are seen as role models are made through local announcements, at church services, or at local community events. Parents' Day proclamations and rallies have been held in recent times and involved organizations such as the United Civil Rights Councils of America.

* August 26th: Women's Equity Day in the US
Source: http://www.nwhp.org/resourcecenter/equalityday.php
At the behest of Rep. Bella Abzug (D-NY), in 1971 the U.S. Congress designated August 26 as "Women's Equality Day."
The date was selected to commemorate the 1920 passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, granting women the right to vote. This was the culmination of a massive, peaceful civil rights movement by women that had its formal beginnings in 1848 at the world's first women's rights convention, in Seneca Falls, New York.
The observance of Women's Equality Day not only commemorates the passage of the 19th Amendment, but also calls attention to women's continuing efforts toward full equality. Workplaces, libraries, organizations, and public facilities now participate with Women's Equality Day programs, displays, video showings, or other activities.
Joint Resolution of Congress, 1971
Designating August 26 of each year as Women's Equality Day
WHEREAS, the women of the United States have been treated as second-class citizens and have not been entitled the full rights and privileges, public or private, legal or institutional, which are available to male citizens of the United States; and
WHEREAS, the women of the United States have united to assure that these rights and privileges are available to all citizens equally regardless of sex; and
WHEREAS, the women of the United States have designated August 26, the anniversary date of the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, as symbol of the continued fight for equal rights: and
WHEREAS, the women of United States are to be commended and supported in their organizations and activities,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that August 26th of each year is designated as Women's Equality Day, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation annually in commemoration of that day in 1920, on which the women of America were first given the right to vote, and that day in 1970, on which a nationwide demonstration for women's rights took place.

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Month
Howard University, Washington D.C.holds seminar on LGBT issues:
Read about the LGBT Month:
LGBT History Month originated in the United States and was first celebrated in 1994. It was founded by Missouri high-school history teacher Rodney Wilson. Among early supporters and members of the first coordinating committee were Kevin Jennings of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN); Kevin Boyer of Gerber/Hart Gay and Lesbian Library and Archives in Chicago; Paul Varnell, writer for the Windy City Times; Torey Wilson, Chicago area teacher; Johnda Boyce, women's studies major at Columbus State University and Jessea Greenman of UC-Berkeley. Many gay and lesbian organizations supported the concept early on. In 1995, the National Education Association indicated support of LGBT History Month as well as other history months by resolution at its General Assembly.
October was chosen by Wilson as the month for the celebration because National Coming Out Day already was established as a widely known event, on October 11, and October commemorated the first march on Washington by LGBT people in 1979. LGBT History Month is intended to encourage honesty and openness about being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.
While it was first known as Lesbian and Gay History Month, the Coordinating Committee soon added "Bisexual" to the title. It has subsequently become known as LGBT History Month. The event has received criticism from, for example, the Concerned Women for America and others who believe it to be a form of indoctrination.
On June 2, 2000, President Bill Clinton declared June 2000 "Gay & Lesbian Pride Month". President Barack Obama declared June 2009 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered Pride Month 2009 on June 1, 2009.
National Breast Cancer Awareness Month
AstraZeneca, which manufactures breast cancer drugs Arimidex and Tamoxifen, founded the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the year 1985. The aim of the NBCAM from the start has been to promote mammography as the most effective weapon in the fight against breast cancer.
In 1993 Evelyn Lauder, Senior Corporate Vice President of the Estée Lauder Companies founded The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and established the Pink Ribbon as its symbol, though this was not the first time the ribbon was used to symbolize breast cancer. In the fall of 1991, the Susan G. Komen Foundation had handed out Pink Ribbons to participants in its New York City race for breast cancer survivors.

December 1-9 --- Hanukkah
Hanukkah (Hebrew: חֲנֻכָּה , Tiberian: Ḥănukkāh, nowadays usually spelled חנוכה pronounced [χanuˈka] in Modern Hebrew, also romanized as Chanukah or Chanuka), also known as the Festival of Lights is an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple (the Second Temple) in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt of the 2nd century BCE. Hanukkah is observed for eight nights and days, starting on the 25th day of Kislev according to the Hebrew calendar, which may occur at any time from late November to late December in the Gregorian calendar.
The festival is observed by the kindling of the lights of a unique candelabrum, the nine-branched Menorah or Hanukiah, one additional light on each night of the holiday, progressing to eight on the final night. The typical Menorah consists of 8 branches with an additional raised branch. The extra light is called a shamash (Hebrew: שמש, "attendant" or "sexton") and is given a distinct location, usually above or below the rest. The purpose of the shamash is to have a light available for use, as using the Hanukkah lights themselves is forbidden.

Colorado. Visiting Brandon's family.
The goal was to get the bad taste out of my mouth when it came to Family by being around someone else's.
Here is what I learned:
every family is messed up in their own way.
not every family just accepts that. Some work for years [and years and years] to understand what happened, forgive all necessary parties, and get over it.
Some people really do that, and it really works. And those people are my new heroes.
1 comment:
Life is a quest to successfully do the opposite of what your family did to you...and when you wind up doing it anyway, not feeling horribly bad about it. Enjoy a chocolate chip cookie...or a plate full of them...and try to do more familial good than bad.
