Square Dancing Day exists to celebrate the square dance form of folk dancing, and is a great excuse to get out and “Dosey Do”. This fun, healthy and simple form of dance with a long history definitely deserves a holiday all of its own, and it has one!
The History of Square Dancing Day
Square Dancing has its roots in traditional English, Irish and Scottish folk dance. Square dances were first documented in 17th-century England . They came to North America right along with the European settlers, where they were modified and improved over the years. The Western American square dance is perhaps the most famous type of square dance worldwide; in fact, the suware dance is the official dance of 19 American states. Square dancing is mainly associated with a romanticized image of the Old West, and cowboys wooing Southern belles during dances organized at saloons to celebrate various occasions. The dance is accompanied by jolly, lively music on guitars, fiddles, accordions and bagpipes. The dances normally form patterns of lines, circles and, as the name suggests, squares, with couples – male/female, female/female or male/male – taking a turn in every role. In most American forms of square dance, the dancers are prompted through the square dance choreography to the beat of the music. Sometimes, this so-called “caller” is one of the dancers, but more commonly the “caller” is found on the stage with the band. Interest in square dancing, which had waned during the World Wars, experienced a revival in New York City in the 1950s, during the American folk music revival.

Five years ago: Eurozone ministers sent Greece an 8 billion-euro ($10.7 billion) Christmas rescue package to stem an immediate cash crisis. Hard-line Iranian protesters stormed British diplomatic compounds in what began as an apparent state-approved show of anger over the latest Western sanctions to punish Tehran for its nuclear program. American Airlines' parent company, AMR Corp., filed for bankruptcy protection, citing high labor and fuel costs and the weak economy. (American Airlines emerged from bankruptcy protection in Dec. 2013 as it merged with US Airways.)
One year ago: President Barack Obama, arriving in Paris late at night for a climate conference, briefly visited the Bataclan, the concert hall that was the scene of the worst of France's terror attacks 16 days earlier. Pope Francis visited the conflict-wracked Central African Republic, where he urged the country's Christian and Muslim factions to lay down their weapons and instead arm themselves with peace and forgiveness. Andy Murray gave Britain its first Davis Cup title in 79 years when he beat Belgium's David Goffin 6-3, 7-5, 6-3 in the first of reverse singles.

Important to set ground rules immediately. Some of my friend's kids write notes to the elves every night and the parents have to respond using a different hand-writing. We never answered back and told the kids that the elves don't know how to read/write in English.Funny thing, my sister bought it for our kids before we knew anything about it...I need to give her a callI worry about any parent that has to do that stupid elf. So glad no one ever mentioned it to my kids. LolI always do!I didn't forget. Thanks for worrying about me.Morning ElfsSlacker forgot his countdown...hopefully he didn't forget to hide the elf....
Also if you forget to move him, tell them that the elf is giving them a 2nd chance and didn't want to go report back something bad I'm sure they did the day before.
This is healthy for their mental well being, right?

It's not her fault then. They just think they're being good aunts and uncles. Same goes for my brother. It takes having kids to realize the misery they've instilled upon you. They know not what they're doing so we must forgive... And charge shit to their beach club account.

Actually Cesar Chavez was probably a more appropriate reference, but you know how all those commies look alike.Santa's no dope. That's why he's up at the North Pole. Too cold for demonstrations and revolutions. Those don't go past the temperate zones.Where's Che Guevara when you need him.They don't read/write in ENGLISH. Besides, how do you think The Man would get all that cheap/free labor?They can't read or write, but are still able to report back? Santa should be held accountable for elf illiteracy!Important to set ground rules immediately. Some of my friend's kids write notes to the elves every night and the parents have to respond using a different hand-writing. We never answered back and told the kids that the elves don't know how to read/write in English.Funny thing, my sister bought it for our kids before we knew anything about it...I need to give her a callI worry about any parent that has to do that stupid elf. So glad no one ever mentioned it to my kids. LolI always do!I didn't forget. Thanks for worrying about me.Morning ElfsSlacker forgot his countdown...hopefully he didn't forget to hide the elf....
Also if you forget to move him, tell them that the elf is giving them a 2nd chance and didn't want to go report back something bad I'm sure they did the day before.
This is healthy for their mental well being, right?

Post by: South Carolina Redfish on November 29, 2016, 04:45:42 PM
Despite strong opposition from farmers, Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation in September that for the first time regulates heat-trapping gases from livestock operations and landfills.
Cattle and other farm animals are major sources of methane, a greenhouse gas many times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping gas. Methane is released when they belch, pass gas and make manure.
"If we can reduce emissions of methane, we can really help to slow global warming," said Ryan McCarthy, a science adviser for the California Air Resources Board, which is drawing up rules to implement the new law.
Livestock are responsible for 14.5 percent of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, with beef and dairy production accounting for the bulk of it, according to a 2013 United Nations report.
