In addition to the solstices and equinoxes there are also Cross-Quarter days which fall approximately halfway between a solstice and an equinox. And each one has a minor holiday attached to it. The first Cross-Quarter Day, around February 1st (August 1st in the Southern hemisphere), is Imbolic. The Second, around May 1st (November 1st in the Southern hemisphere), is Beltane. The Third, around August 1st (February 1st in the Southern hemisphere), is Lammas and Lughnasadh, The Fourth, around November 1st (May 1st in the Southern hemisphere), is Samhain.

These festivals are opposite (6 months apart) in the calendar between the Northern and Southern hemispheres because the seasons are opposite. However, some celebrations that have been established in the northern hemisphere and are rooted in the cross-quarter festivals are celebrated at the same time of year around the earth. In the Northern Hemisphere, Groundhog Day (February 2nd) has roots in Imbolic, May Day (May 1st) has roots in Beltane, August Eve (July 31st) has roots in Lammas. All Saint's Day, and Halloween (October 31st) have roots in Samhain.

Many Pagan religions celebrate this as Midwinter, the most celebrated cog in the Wheel of the year.

In Christianity, Christmas is held on December 25th and was placed as such to allow adaptations of pre-Christian festivals concerning the winter solstice.

In Mithraism and Zoroastrianism, Yalda, also known as Shab-e-Yalda, is the night of the birth of Mithra, Persian angel of light and truth. At the morning of the longest night of the year the Mithra was born. Celebrations are held on December 20th or December 21st.

In Rome, Saturnalia is a festival of light proceeding the winter solstice, with candles symbolizing the quest for knowledge and truth. Often servants were treated by their master's to a meal on this day.

Among Slavs, Korochun was celebrated by pagan Slavs on the longest night of the year and the night of the winter solstice. The holiday was observed with ancestor worship.

In Judaism, Hanukkah (Chanukah) 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.

Among African-Americans in The United States and Among the Western African Diaspora, Kwanzaa was a celebration that has its roots in the black nationalist movement of the 1960s, and was established as a means to help African Americans reconnect with their African cultural and historical heritage by uniting in meditation and study of African traditions and Nguzu Saba, the "seven principles of African Heritage" which Karenga said "is a communitarian African philosophy".

Yule was a midwinter festival celebrated by the Germanic peoples that lasted 12 days, beginning on the date of the winter solstice. or in the Urglaawe faith, begins at sundown on December 20th and ends at sundown on January 1st. It is observed directly on the Winter Solstice among Wiccans. The celebration also has noted observations in Norse, Gothic, Anglo-Saxon, and Celtic peoples.

“New Year's Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.”  -James Agate





Women Drink every time a Queen is drawn
Men Drink every time a King is drawn

Unmarried people drink every time a Jack is shown

Drink if you are the best looking person in the room

TO DO
*Link to Facebook Page
*Mail List - https://www.constantcontact.com/email-marketing/signup.jsp
*Add phone #
*Design and print business cards
*Create a rate card
Potential advertisers will want to know how much you charge for their ads to appear on your site. So you'll need to establish (and publish) a rate card listing your available packages and prices. That means that you'll have to select ad sizes for placement within your site templates. (I recommend the Wide Skyscraper, Leaderboard and Medium Rectangle.
* Create a media kit
You'll need to describe your site, on a single page, to convince readers to read it, advertisers to support it and other journalists to report about it. Here's the who, what, where, when and why about your new website. That's your initial media kit.
* Create a customer lead list
Who will you solicit to become advertisers or funders of your website? That's your customer lead list. Gather contact information, then use your calendar to assign times to contact everyone on your list. And then, to contact them again.

TRAFFIC

http://www.google.com/analytics/

First, you will need solid information about your site's visitors. Ultimately, what you are selling to advertisers is access to your readers, so you'd better know how many, and who, they are. A traffic tracking service like Google Analytics can provide accurate trafiic data that filters out hon-human traffic like search engine spiders and automated robots (which can account for up to 90 percent of a site's overall traffic). Make Money also provides reader tracking, along with some crude demographic information about your site's readers.

You should also consider conducting a survey of your readers, to get more detailed information about their demographics and behavior. SurveyMonkey provides easy-to-use tools to set up such surveys.

Once you have advertisers, you will need a system to serve and manage ads, such as OpenAds, as well as system to invoice your advertisers, such as Blinksale or PayPal. (PayPal's invoicing system does not require your advertisers to have a PayPal account, just a credit card.)

PRESS
public relations or press contact person. If you cannot find a contact on the website, call the main number and ask for the person who handles media inquiries.

By accepting press credentials you may be waiving certain rights, including the copyright to your images!

ADS
Amazon Affiliates
Google Adsense

 BlogAds provide an alternative to the PPC networks. BlogAds sells its ads on a more traditional site-targeted model. Advertisers do not bid on keywords or phrases, but instead pay for their ads to be displayed a certain number of times on selected websites or groups of websites. BlogAds has become especially popular on political blogs, where advertisers can buy across a group of liberal or conservative weblogs.

 

Other notable PPC ad networks include the Yahoo! Publisher Network and Ad Voyager.

NextPVR
In the Add-on, try turning off Timeshifting and see if that helps

System->Settings->Add-ons->Enabled Add-ons->PVR Clients->NextPVR PVR Client->Configure->Advanced to turn it off.

Most of the XBMC distributions now include the PVR addon but sub's change didn't make RC1 (Release Candidate) but it is going to be showing up in the nightlies. If you install the addon with XBMC and you check the version and it says 1.6.1.0 time shifting is probably broken. If it says 1.6.1 then it works (nicely)

create an exception in firewall

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/542-windows-firewall-add-remove-exception.html

I thought it might be "Enable web interface" option that I've always had turned off. I turned it on and the error went away. Someone should document that this option must be enabled, assuming I found the answer.

I now get "NextPVR connection to tuner lost" in XBMC. I have both the 12.0 beta 1 XBMC, the Dec 1 pvr.nextpvr.zip, and NextPVR 2.5.9 with the patched Nshared.dll.

If your NextPVR server name is given explicitly (i.e., is anything other than '127.0.0.1', the default local IP address with NextPVR and xbmc running on the same machine), you will need to allow NextPVR Recording Service (NRecord.exe), nextpvr.exe, and ndigitalhost.exe through the firewall on the host/server machine, otherwise xbmc will complain it has 'lost' the connection to the server.

Successful Installation
If the NextPVR add-on is installed correctly in xbmc, then on selecting 'Live TV' in xbmc, dialog boxes will appear in the upper-right corner, showing the progress of EPG, Recordings, and Timer information being imported from the NextPVR server.

International Caps Lock Days

28 June and 22 October are annually marked as International Caps Lock Days as a parody holiday first noted in 2000.

 

Festivus

A annual holiday invented by writer Dan O'Keefe and introduced into popular culture by his son Daniel, a scriptwriter for the TV show Seinfeld. Although the original Festivus took place in February 1966 as a celebration of O'Keefe's first date with his wife, Deborah, most people now celebrate the holiday on December 23, as depicted on the December 18, 1997 Seinfeld episode "The Strike".

 

First Contact Day

(5 April) (The day Vulcans establish first contact with humanity) - Star Trek: First Contact is a 1996 science fiction film and the eighth feature film based in the Star Trek fictional universe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

International Cannabis Day:

(20 April) 420, 4:20 or 4/20 (pronounced four-twenty) refers to consumption of cannabis and, by extension, a way to identify oneself with cannabis subculture. The notable day for these is April 20. (Not to be confused with J-Day, an international protest held on the first Saturday of May.)

 

International Dadaism Month:

A month of celebrating the Dada movement. On 27 December 2005, Mayor Dennis "Boog" Highberger of Lawrence, Kansas proclaimed International Dadaism month. However, in Dada spirit, Highberger did not select a specific month to celebrate Dada. Instead he proclaimed International Dada month as 4 February, 28 March, 1 April, 15 July, 2 August, 7 August, 16 August, 26 August, 18 September, 22 September, 1 October, 17 October, and 26 October. Highberger and Cypress Frankenfeld selected the dates by first rolling dice to determine the number of days, then pulling numbers corresponding to every day in the year (1-365) from a colorful top hat.

 

International Scurvy Awareness Day

(2 May) Official Website: LimeStrong.

 

International Talk Like a Pirate Day

(19 September) - International Talk Like a Pirate Day (ITLAPD) is a parodic holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur ("Ol' Chumbucket") and Mark Summers ("Cap'n Slappy"), of Corvallis, Oregon, who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate. For example, an observer of this holiday would greet friends not with "Hello," but with "Ahoy, me hearty!" The holiday, and its observance, springs from a romanticized view of the Golden Age of Piracy.

 

International Yak Day (April 29)

 

Ninja Day

On this day, people are encouraged to dress as ninja, engage in ninja-related activities, & spread information on ninja online. December 5 was originally chosen because December 5, 2003 marked the release of Tom Cruise's film The Last Samurai (which featured a scene where samurai battled ninja). Since then the focus has shifted towards the more familiar Pirates versus Ninjas conflict, & the day has served as a virtual counterpoint to International Talk Like a Pirate Day .

 

 

 

Mischief Night

(30 October) - Mischief night is a tradition in northern England, Scotland, Ireland, and the United States of a night in the calendar when the custom is for preteens and teenagers to take a degree of license to play pranks and do mischief to their neighbors/neighbours.

 

Mole Day:

Mole Day is celebrated among chemists in North America on October 23, between 6:02 AM and 6:02 PM, making the date 6:02 10/23 in the American style of writing dates.  Many high schools around the United States and in Canada celebrate Mole Day as a way to get their students interested in chemistry, with various activities often related to chemistry or moles.  Some schools celebrate Mole Day on June 2 (6/02 in MM-DD format) and occasionally February 6 (6/02 in DD-MM format), rather than October 23 (10/23), presumably from 10:23 AM to 10:23 PM. Often either of these is instituted as a "second" mole day for schools that run on semester rather than yearly basis, to give both semesters' worth of students an opportunity to celebrate.  * Some schools celebrate "Mole Week" around October 23.

The American Chemical Society sponsors National Chemistry Week, which occurs from the Sunday through Saturday during October in which the 23rd falls. This makes Mole Day an integral part of National Chemistry Week.

 

Monkey Day

Celebrated internationally on December 14. The holiday is primarily celebrated with costume parties intended to help draw attention to issues related to simians, including medical research, animal rights, and evolution. The holiday also cuts across religious boundaries and provides opportunities to share monkey stories

 

National Gorilla Suit Day

Gorilla suits are recognized through National Gorilla Suit Day, January 31. The holiday was concocted by MAD cartoonist Don Martin in a 1963 paperback Don Martin Bounces Back!. The most notable story in the tome revolves around a hapless fellow named Fester Bestertester, who dares to mock the concept of National Gorilla Suit Day and is thus repeatedly pummeled by gorillas. The holiday was recently promoted on comic book writer Mark Evanier's news from me blog until Don Martin's widow request that all references to the holiday be removed in late 2007.

 

National Hugging Day

National Hug Day or National Hugging Day is an annual holiday that occurs on January 21 and is officially recognized by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The holiday has since spread to multiple different countries. The purpose for the holiday is to help everyone show more emotion in public. Offer a hug to anyone and everyone you want.

 

 


Opposite Day

(random date, most often 25 January) - Opposite Day is a holiday which is celebrated by many schoolchildren, though often in an irregular fashion and not on any pre-determined day of the year. Typically, when Opposite Day is declared, statements always mean the opposite of what they say. In the sense that it would "excuse" untrue statements, it is related to the notion that crossed fingers automatically nullify promises.

 

Pi Day

(14 March) or Pi Approximation Day (22 July) - Pi Day and Pi Approximation Day are two holidays held to celebrate the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (3/14 in American date format), due to π being equal to roughly 3.14.  The first Pi Day celebration was held at the San Francisco Exploratorium in 1988, with staff and public marching around one of its circular spaces, and then consuming fruit pies; the museum has since added pizza pies to its Pi Day menu. People who celebrate Pi Day usually celebrate Mole Day & Square root day as well.

 

Robert Burns Day / Burns Night

A celebration of the life and poetry of the poet Robert Burns, author of many Scots poems. The suppers are normally held on or near the poet's birthday, 25 January, sometimes also known as Robert Burns Day or Burns Night (Burns Nicht), although they may in principle be held at any time of the year.

Burns suppers may be either formal or informal. Informal suppers typically include haggis (a traditional Scottish dish), Scotch whisky and the recitation of Burns' poetry. Formal dinners are hosted by organisations such as Burns clubs, the Freemasons or St Andrews Societies and occasionally end with dancing when ladies are present.

 

 

 

S.A.D. -- (Single's Awareness Day)

(14 February) - is a humorous holiday celebrated on February 14 (although some prefer the 13th or the 15th to get away from the commercialism associated with the 14th). It serves as an alternative to Valentine's Day for people who are single: that is, who are not involved in a romantic relationship. Some observers of SAD do so out of spite for Valentine's Day, as a Hallmark holiday, or for other reasons. On Singles Awareness Day, single people gather to celebrate or to commiserate in their single status.

 

 

 

Tax Freedom Day

Tax Freedom Day is the first day of the year in which a nation as a whole has theoretically earned enough income to fund its annual tax burden.

 

Towel Day

Towel Day is celebrated every 25 May as a tribute by fans of the late author Douglas Adams. On this day, fans carry a towel with them to demonstrate their love for the books & the author, as referred to in Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The commemoration was first held in 2001, two weeks after Adams's death on 11 May 2001.

 

World Party Day / (P-Day)

is celebrated every year on April 3 as a synchronized global mass celebration of a better world and the active creation of desirable reality.

To leave the old with a burst of song
To recall the right and forgive the wrong:
To forget the thing that binds you fast.
To the vain regrets of the year that's past;
To have the strength to let go you hold
Of the not worthwhile of the days grown old,
To dare to go forth with a purpose true,
To the unknown task of the year that's new;
To help your brother along the road
To do his work and lift his load;
To add your gift to the world's good cheer,
Is to have and to give a Happy New Year.
Happy New Year friends, families and foes alike.

Rev. Elijah Craig (1738/1743 – May 18, 1808) was a pioneering Baptist preacher, born in Virginia, who became an educator and capitalist entrepreneur in the state of Kentucky. He is credited with the invention of bourbon whiskey

THE KENTUCKY BOURBON FESTIVAL
SEPTEMBER 13-18, 2011

A large number of Christian saints are patrons of brewing. Saint Augustine of Hippo (November 13, 354 – August 28, 430), Saint Luke the Evangelist ( his feast day is 18 October) , and Saint Nicholas (270–6 December 343) (base for Santa Claus) all are considered to be patrons of brewing

Gambrinus is a legendary king of Flanders, and an unofficial patron saint of beer or beer brewing. Gambrinus is variously depicted as a European king, as an English knight of the Middle Ages, or (less commonly) as a plump old man. Gambrinus' birthday is purported to be April 11.

 


Louis Pasteur, (December 27, 1822 – September 28, 1895) was a French chemist and microbiologist born in Dole. He is remembered for his remarkable breakthroughs in the causes and preventions of diseases. His discoveries reduced mortality from puerperal fever, and he created the first vaccine for rabies and anthrax. His experiments supported the germ theory of disease. He was best known to the general public for inventing a method to stop milk and wine from causing sickness, a process that came to be called pasteurization. He is regarded as one of the three main founders of microbiology, together with Ferdinand Cohn and Robert Koch. Pasteur also made many discoveries in the field of chemistry, most notably the molecular basis for the asymmetry of certain crystals.[2] His body lies beneath the Institute Pasteur in Paris in a spectacular vault covered in depictions of his accomplishments in Byzantine mosaics.

Pasteur encouraged doctors to sanitize their hands and equipment before surgery. Prior to this, few doctors or their assistants practiced the procedure of washing their hands and equipment.  discovery of yeast's role in fermentation
