There is very little worse than rolling in on an infant not breathing call. Many times the infant has been down far too long, usually discovered in the morning or after a long nap. The mother is imploring you to do something. In her eyes Johnny Gage and Roy DeSoto from Emergency just walked out of the TV set and in the front door to save the day because they save almost everyone. But you know at first glance and confirm after a quick exam there is nothing that can be done.

Then you have to tell her.

When you see a fireman or EMS type, try to remember the things they've seen. Maybe even that morning.

National Mulligan Day

Everyone deserves a second chance. This October 17, celebrate National Mulligan Day and enjoy the comfort in knowing that if at first you don’t succeed, you’ll get another crack at it. Though often associated with getting a “freebie” after a less than desirable golf shot, National Mulligan Day applies to any undertaking in which you would care for a “do-over.” Mulligans are for those with the determination to fight through the adversity of the mishaps of life. Let’s be honest — we all need a mulligan from time to time.

National Mulligan Day – History

July 1985
David Mulligan confirmed his reputation

In July of 1985, journalist Don Mackintosh interviewed David Mulligan for a column, “Around the Sport Circuit," where David confirmed stories about his “additional shots."

1940s
The USGA approves

The United States Golf Association claims that the term first achieved widespread use.

1930s
Mulligan theory #1

Some golf historians give credit to John A. “Buddy” Mulligan, a locker room attendant at
Essex Fells C.C., New Jersey for the word.

1920s
Mulligan theory #2

David Bernard Mulligan, a Canadian golfer and one-time manager of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City, would often ask for a second shot off the first tee, coining the term “mulligan."

1793
Mulligan theory #3

Yet another version of the truth about the origin of the term “mulligan” states that it comes from Thomas Mulligan, a minor Anglo-Irish aristocrat and passionate golfer.

National Mulligan Day Activities

Play a round of "mulligan" golf
The term “mulligan” is originally associated with golf, so why not use it on a course. Gather up some friends, have some laughs, and enjoy a round of golf where you only keep score with the shots you like.

Have a leftover party
Enjoy round two of your previous meals and taste just how good a “second helping” can be.

Try something new, and master it
Though it may take some time to master, think about how amazed friends will be when you can show off your new skill in public.

5 Inspiring Second Chance Quotes

David Millar (professional cyclist)
“People for make mistakes and I think they should be punished. But they should also be forgiven and given the opportunity for a second chance. We are human beings.”

Pete Rose (retired professional baseball player)
“If someone is gracious to give me a second chance, I won’t need a third.”

Dave Wilson (author)
"Sometimes life gives you a second chance, or even two! Not always, but sometimes. It's what you do with those second chances that counts."

Marc Platt (producer)
“When a writer gets a second chance to look back on something, it’s a great opportunity to say, ‘Hey, this is really good, but we can do it even better.’”

Tia Mowry (actress)
“Having a second chance makes you want to work even harder.”

Why We Love National Mulligan Day

Second chances are for everyone
Although we all want to get things right on our first attempt, immediate success is rare. Embrace your human faults, and rather than admit failure, take a deep breath and try again to get it right.

Everyone does it
Realistically, we not only need more than one try to achieve our goals, we often surpass them with practice. No one, ever, has done everything in their lives perfectly on their first try. So don’t fret: The “try, try again” club is a big one.

It’s a sign of friendship
A mulligan, more than anything, is accepted cheating. Mulligans are not secretive or sneaky. They're a blatant disregard for the rules that a competitor happily ignores — with the understanding that they may ask for the same kindness later.

National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day

The straight edge lifestyle means refraining from alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. Would you believe a sub-genre of hardcore punk rockers inspired this movement? It’s true. On October 17, celebrate National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day by resetting your mind and body — and exploring a unique way of life. If you always live the straight edge, this is a great time to encourage your friends to try it with you. Look no further for plenty of ideas and activities to make National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day special.

National National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day – History

The 2000s
Some added veganism

By the early 2000s many people in the movement added veganism to their straight edge lifestyles. Although not officially part of the movement, some began to refer to themselves as vegan straight edge — or with the symbol xVx.

1999
National National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day was born

Although people had begun to live the straight edge lifestyle in the 1980s, the movement gained traction in the 1990s. National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day was created in 1999 in Boston during an event called Edge Fest.

June 1981
A punk band went "straight"

The hardcore punk band Minor Threat first released the song "Straight Edge" in 1981. The term was soon adopted as a title for the movement to refrain from using drugs, alcohol, and tobacco.

National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day Activities

Write down your experience
National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day celebrates restraint and reflection. If you're trying it for the first time, look back on your experience at the end of the day so you can remember how it made you feel. If you've been straight edge for a long time, use this day to reflect on your journey and how living straight edge has changed you.

Make some mocktails
If you normally like to unwind with an alcoholic beverage, you can still get creative making a fun drink for yourself. Try making a virgin lemon drop by shaking lemon juice, simple syrup, and water and pouring it into a sugar-rimmed martini glass. Invite your friends over and throw a mocktail party on National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day!

Go straight edge together
For some, the straight edge lifestyle might sound intimidating. Make it fun by grabbing a good friend and trying it together! You can share tips and reflect on the experience so you'll feel positive and motivated throughout the day.

3 Celebrities You Didn't Know Were Straight Edge
Bradley Cooper

After he felt like his drinking and partying were becoming too wild, the film star made the decision to become sober and live straight edge.

Steve Aoki
While attending UC Santa Barbara, Aoki adhered to the vegan straight edge lifestyle.

Phillip Jack Brooks or CM Punk
The retired professional wrestler embodied the straight edge movement in the ring, but now also adheres to the principles in his daily life.

Why We Love National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day

Straight edge is healthy
When you live without drugs, alcohol, and tobacco you may notice improved sleep and increased energy. Living straight edge helps you stay in control of your mind and body and might even prevent a substance abuse problem.

Straight edge saves you money
When you don't spend money on cigarettes or alcohol, you can save a lot. For example, having one or two glasses of wine during the week can add up to hundreds of dollars by the end of the month. Think about all of the other things you could be doing with this money, such as planning a vacation or buying tickets to a concert.

Living straight edge gives you a different perspective
Whether you've lived straight edge for many years or celebrate once a year on National Straight Edge Lifestyle Day, living the straight edge lifestyle can open your eyes to a different way of living. Take time to enjoy the simple things in life without any distractions!

National Pay Back a Friend Day

After conducting an in-depth study on how money affects relationships, Bank of America designated October 17 as National Pay Back a Friend Day. This study, which is called the “Friends Again Report,” found that 53% of its participants have ended a friendship after they loaned a friend money and were never paid back. As a way to combat this issue, National Pay Back a Friend Day was created. So on October 17, put away the bad feelings, pull up your mobile payment apps, and start paying your (ex) friends back.

National Pay Back a Friend Day – History

2017
Another payment app popped up

Zelle, a payment app owned by many of the big banks (Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Chase to name a few), launched a person-to-person payment system.

2012
PayPal came out on top

Braintree acquired Venmo for $26.2 million. (PayPal later bought Braintree for $800 million.)

1998
The trailblazer for online payments launched.

Did you know PayPal started under the name Confinity?

How to Observe National Pay Back a Friend Day

Pay back a friend
Obviously, the best way to celebrate National Pay Back a Friend Day is to pay back a friend. And thanks to all the apps out there these days, finding someone is easy — and so is paying them back.

If you can’t pay them back (yet), find other ways
Offer them free babysitting. Or dog sitting. Or whatever. Just be sure to acknowledge that they loaned you money — and thank them for helping you out.

Organize your finances
Use National Pay Back a Friend Day as an opportunity to figure out other debts you may have (credit card, money you may owe to family members, student loans, etc.) and make a proactive plan to get caught up.

4 Reasons To Keep Friends And Money Separate

IOUs can leave a friendship MIA
Nearly 80 percent of Americans feel that owing a friend money is bad for their friendship.

Millennials have a bad rep
Lots of people believe that millennials are the demographic that will most likely not pay a friend back.

Apparently there’s a price on friendship
Nearly half of all Americans are willing to terminate a friendship because of money.

People have lost thousands to friends
The amount of money people claim they’ve loaned to friends—and were never paid back—averages out to $2,092.

Why National Pay Back a Friend Day is Important

Debts cause stress—this can help alleviate it
Losing a friend over money is stressful. This day puts us on the road to healthier friendships — and finances.

It helps improve your communication skills
Talking about money is hard — especially with a friend. National Pay Back a Friend Day is a reminder to step out of your comfort zone and acknowledge the awkward feelings.

It can help mend lost friendships
If you’re feeling regret about a friendship lost due financial issues, National Pay Back a Day Friend is the perfect time to reach out. And if things don’t go the way you planned, at least you can have peace of mind knowing you tried.

National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day

There are exactly 365 days in a year, yet most of us neglect the condition of our computers. Technology is more advanced than ever, so we have become accustomed to not maintaining them. Thanks to the good folks at the Personal Computer Museum, of Ontario Canada, that has changed. On the third Monday of October, people celebrate National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day by doing just that — making sure their desktops are cleaned.

National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day Activities

Back up your files
If you rarely clean your desktop, then it is safe to assume that you barely back up your files. So here’s an idea; do both! Back up your files to a secured hard drive and delete them from your computer.

Organize your things
Question, can you see the background picture on your desktop? Or is it being camouflaged by the army of documents on your screen? If the answer is yes, then SMH. Clean it up! Organize your files by archiving them into folders.

Let it go
Let it go, let it gooooo! Sorry, that song is catchy so we couldn’t help but reference Frozen. All jokes aside though, let go of those files you’ve been holding to. Do you really need that screenshot from 3 years ago? Trash it if the answer is no.

Why We Love National Clean Your Virtual Desktop Day

More speed
The logic behind this is quite simple; the more things you have stored on your computer = a slower running machine. This because more RAM is being used. For those that do not know what RAM is, think of it as horse power. The heavier your car weighs, the more horse power you use to travel. Clean up your computer as if it were a tune up and get up to speed.

More space
We’re just stating the obvious folks. Clean up your computer and gain more space on your computer! As mentioned above, this will make your computer quicker, plus it will give you more space to store the important documents you want - as opposed to the Rachel Ray recipe from 2008. (We love you Rachel, that wasn’t shade!)

Fresh start
Do you remember how quick your computer was when you first purchased it? Probably not, since you haven’t cleaned it in years! Get a fresh start by emptying the trash. Start over by being more organized this time. Label your documents appropriately and make it easy for yourself when you need to find them.

International ShakeOut Day

Drop, Cover and Hold On! If nothing else, remember to take those three steps if and when an earthquake strikes. They’re crucial in order to prevent the chances of severe injury or even death. International ShakeOut Day on October 17 reminds us of the importance of taking immediate action. This day, which falls on the third Thursday in October, remains our best opportunity to learn (and practice) how to protect ourselves. Earthquakes can happen anytime. Remember, even if you’ve experienced them before, a false sense of security can prove fatal.

International ShakeOut Day - History
2004
Monster earthquake

An earthquake recorded underneath the Indian Ocean created enough energy to power all homes and business in the U.S. for three days and caused a series of tsunamis.

1960
Going beyond earthly expectations

One of the largest earthquakes recorded, a magnitude 9.5 in Chile, shook the entire earth for several days.

132 AD
Measuring seismic waves

Geographer Zhang Heng is regarded as the first inventor to create a seismoscope. The scope resembled a wine jar with dragon sculptures jutting out on all sides. Each of the dragons held a metallic marble in their mouth, and depending on where an earthquake hit, these marbles would fall out and determine the direction of the surrounding tectonic plates.

How to Observe International ShakeOut Day

Take part in the drills
Millions learn how to take cover during an emergency. These drills are held every year on October 19 at 10:19 am.

Practice earthquake preparedness
You can learn about where the closest shelters and food clinics are located, or if there are new protocols for your region. It is super important to know the latest version of safety procedures so you're not caught unprepared.

Stock your safety kit
Pack a safety kit if you don’t have one prepared already. Most standard packs include a pair of clothes for each family member, a tool kit, canned goods, important documents, and electronic power chargers. There will be items in your pack specific to where you live.

5 Reasons Earthquakes Leave Us Rattled

They can occur anywhere
Currently, there are twenty tectonic plates covering the earth; however, scientists predict some plates may break into smaller sections.

Living in the danger zone
Records show most deaths do not occur from the direct impact of an earthquake, but instead from collapsing buildings, and surrounding manmade structures.

Meeting in the middle
Parkfield, California's referred to as the earthquake capital of the world because of its location along the San Andreas Fault.

Catching the untraceable
Scientists are able to determine the exact point on the earth’s surface where an earthquake originated by tracking the different speeds of traveling seismic waves.

The Great Shaky North
Alaska is one for the most seismically active regions in the world — experiencing magnitude 7.0 earthquakes nearly every year.

Why International ShakeOut Day is Important

It helps us learn what to do — and what not to do
The key to preventing chaos in times of emergencies is to ask if you and your family are prepared. It is possible to be distracted by daily living and never be ready for a quake. Preparations include aftermath drills, such as first aid and first response.

It’s a great introduction to children about an earthquake's impact
By observing this holiday, you can start introducing the topic of natural disasters to children. While they are being prepared at schools, they can also learn how to react in these situations if alone at home, or with siblings.

It helps us remember those who endured natural disasters
Recognizing the importance of International ShakeOut Day gives us a reason to reach out to those experiencing natural disasters currently, and those who have endured them in the past. On this day we reflect on what our priorities are, and how we want to be prepared in the future.

Quotes of the Day:
“I have a personal philosophy in life: If somebody else can do something that I'm doing, they should do it. And what I want to do is find things that would represent a unique contribution to the world - the contribution that only I, and my portfolio of talents, can make happen. Those are my priorities in life.” - Neil deGrasse Tyson

“The most creative people are motivated by the grandest of problems that are presented before them.” - Neil deGrasse Tyson

On This Day In History:

National Exascale Day

On October 18 (1018), National Exascale Day celebrates the scientists and researchers who make breakthrough discoveries in medicine, materials sciences, energy and beyond with the help of some of the fastest supercomputers in the world.

We like to say that National Exascale Day celebrates those who keep asking what if, why not, and what’s next — with the advanced technology to attain the answers.

This era in technology will have a profound impact on nearly every aspect of our daily lives. It will impact everything from healthcare and manufacturing to understanding new energy sources and the origins of the universe. Exascale is defined as a quintillion computations per second. For perspective, if all 7.7 billion people on earth each completed one calculation per second, it would take over 4 years. An exascale computer can complete a quintillion computations in 1 second.

So what, you may ask?
The “so what” is that when science discovers and innovates in less time, it realizes good outcomes sooner. More people survive cancer. Populations deplete fewer natural resources from the earth. More people have healthy food on their tables. And so on.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalExascaleDay

Celebrate the geeks, gurus, and geniuses who keep asking the big questions and are changing the world! To get you started, here are a few ideas:

* Hug a scientist.
* Encourage your teams to recognize the great work of a colleague, researcher or anyone who is using advanced computing to change the world.
* Tell the world via your organization’s website, blog, and media channels how your org views the impacts of Exascale computing on the future.
* Take a scientist or science teacher for lunch.
* Celebrate with your teams – ice cream social, picnic lunch, or special recognition ceremony.
* Keep science alive in your schools by sponsoring a science fair.
* Use #NationalExascaleDay to share on social media. Keep reading to learn even more!

We’ve included a bit more information below for you curious-er types.

Fun Factoids

* Exascale computing means a computing system that can perform at least one exaflops ― or one quintillion (a billion billion) calculations per second.
* It would take 40,000 years for one quintillion gallons of water to spill over Niagara Falls.
* The Milky Way galaxy is 1 quintillion kilometers wide.
* The human brain contains 100 billion neurons – to reach one quintillion would require 10,000 people!
* Exascale computers will be roughly a million times more powerful than the average laptop we use every day.

A Historical View into the Next Inflection Point

The advent of the Internet allowed business and industry to collect data like never before. Fast forward, data growth continues to drive organizations of all sizes to data-intensive computing and digital transformation. In response, AI, analytics, IoT, simulations, and modeling workloads are all converging into one business-critical workflow – a workflow that must operate at an extreme scale and in real-time.

So, data growth, converging workloads, and the imperative for digital transformation mean organizations are asking completely new questions. And they need new capabilities to answer those questions. Exascale computing completely rethinks how technology and people come together to answer today’s biggest questions ― and even bigger ones tomorrow.

What Makes Now an Exascale Era™?
Exascale is more than a speed milestone or a system size. Exascale is new workloads brought on by new questions intersecting with new compute capabilities to create a major technological shift.

NATIONAL EXASCALE DAY HISTORY

CRAY, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, founded National Exascale Day in 2019 to celebrate the people who keep asking, “what if, why not, and what’s next?” — with the advanced technology to attain the answers. The day also celebrates a new era of supercomputing that will enable breakthroughs in disciplines benefitting all of humankind.

The Registrar at National Day Calendar® proclaimed National Exascale Day to be observed on October 18th, annually.

National No Beard Day

For those men who are part of the “no beard resistance” in a bearded world; there’s National No Beard Day on October 18. Shaving off your facial hair is a fast way to change your look. Going clean shaven could give you a totally new outlook on life, land you that job or completely change your dating pool!

National No Beard Day - History

It appears that National No Beard Day is one of those internet-generated holidays which we have all come to love (or in the case of bearded men, really really hate!) But this day, which is an annual event every October 18, does open up the discussion on the history of hair removal in general and beards, specifically.

In the 1800s, barbers used straight razors to remove beards from patrons. Though that was a standard practice, most men wore beards as the fashion of the day. But according to the National Museum of American History, beard removal came into vogue in the United States around the early 1900s.

There were numerous reasons for cutting those beards. It sounds gross today, but those large, lush beards that were commonplace in paintings and photographs, were also “breeding grounds” for parasites like lice. Beards also trapped bad odors from perspiration, especially for those men who worked together in close quarters without an opportunity to regularly take a bath. So, when a man sported a clean look sans beard; women took that as a sign that this person practiced good hygiene and could be marriage material.

Enter the Gillette Company in 1904 with its “safety razor” which encouraged men to take their beards in their own shaky hands to remove excess facial hair. (No need to find a barber, when you could do the job yourself!) Eventually, men were looking for ways to keep the hair off for longer periods of time. By 1930, Jacob Schick introduces the electric razor as the “Schick Dry Shaver” and another milestone in the hairy history of men’s hygiene was surpassed!

National No Beard Day timeline

4th century B.C.E.
Alexander the Great pushes his troops to shave

Alexander the Great makes his troops shave their beards so that enemies couldn’t grab onto them during battle.

1860
Lincoln grows a beard

An 11-year-old girl wrote to Abraham Lincoln when he was running for president — saying she would get her brothers to vote for him if he grew a beard because she thought it would look better on his thin face and history is made!

1913
The last president with facial hair left office

When William Howard Taft leaves office, he takes his famous twirly mustache with him. Since then, no sitting president has had either a beard or mustache.

1930
Electric shaver was born

Though the first idea for an electric razor came in 1898, Schick patents the first successful shaver decades later.

National No Beard Day FAQs

Does shaving make your beard grow faster?
Not really. If your beard grows quickly, it may not be due to your razor but, rather, to your genetics.

At what age can I grow a full beard?
Generally-speaking, most men see the beginnings of a beard in late puberty. By their early 20s, many men have a fully-grown beard.

Does shaving affect the quality of your facial hair?
No. Shaving regularly doesn’t affect the thickness, color or rate at which your beard grows.

National No Beard Day Activities

Shave it off
Assemble all the right products, like a new razor, shaving cream, and moisturizer. A good exfoliant can't hurt, either. Trim your beard to a manageable length, soften up the remaining hair by taking a steamy shower or applying a hot towel to your face, and then apply shaving cream. Shave with the grain while holding your skin taut to get the best results. Exfoliate and moisturize that awesome skin below and voila!

Enlist a bearded friend to join you
Shaving off the beard that took you so long to perfect can be scary. Why not convince a hairy friend to do it with you? Take some "before and after" Instagram shots and cherish the memories.

Hire a professional
Getting a straight-razor shave from a barber is one of the most relaxing, manly, old-fashioned things you can possibly do. So sit back and leave the shaving to a professional. Self-care is cool and you'll leave smoother than if you DIY'd it. Next thing you know, you’ll be open to a pedicure!

Weird Beard Facts
Some people are genuinely terrified of them

Pogonophobia is a real thing, which means anyone who suffers from a fear of beards is freaked out by the mere sight of one.

Ninety-eight percent of America's richest men don't have one
If you want to get on the Forbes list, it's time to start shaving.

The same chemical, dihydrotestosterone, promotes both beard growth and balding
One theory postulates that having a beard contributes to baldness due to the body's increased thermoregulation effort.

They've been subject to tax
Both Peter the Great and the state of New Jersey tried to cash in on facial hair in the past.

Beards are like velcro, trapping food and bacteria inside them
Let's all admit it: The thought of leftovers and viruses lurking in facial hair is a total turn-off.

Why We Love National No Beard Day

Shave more - kiss more
Remember your facial hair can give beard burn to those who love you and love to kiss you gives them. You know how cool you think your beard looks? That's how uncool the rash it gives us looks. Go clean-shaven and get more kisses!

You look younger
Maybe you grew a beard to stop getting carded every time you ordered a beer. But if it's been awhile since you went clean-shaven, people (especially potential romantic partners) might go ga-ga for that babyface you're hiding underneath all that hair. And if you just grew it recently? Take pride in slamming your ID down and telling the bartender you're going to be a very youthful-looking senior citizen someday!

Your career might get a jumpstart
Most executives are clean-shaven, especially the higher up the ranks you go. So, if you're gunning to be your company's next CEO? Losing the beard can't hurt. You have to look the part to get the part.

National Mammography Day

Every year on the third Friday in October, National Mammography Day joins in National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

This day serves as a reminder to all women that the best defense is early detection. A mammogram can often detect a problem before there is any outward physical sign.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States according to the CDC. The CDC statistics also report that breast cancer is the most common form of cancer diagnosed among women. Screenings and breast exams are a part of the early detection process.

When you schedule an annual appointment with your physician, make sure a breast exam is completed, too. Tell your doctor about any changes. If you or your doctor notices any signs, the doctor can order tests, including a sonogram or mammogram.

Finally, a preventative mammogram is the last line of defense. Today’s mammograms offer more vivid detail of the breast tissue. Baseline mammograms are provided around the age of 35 unless family history indicates sooner. The baseline mammogram provides a comparison view for your physician should something develop later down the line. Women age 40 and over are recommended to receive yearly preventative mammograms.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalMammographyDay
Visit with your doctor and set up a mammogram and use #NationalMammographyDay to post on social media.

Calm down my eldest son and most important heir. I have your whole life planned out for you and therefore you can throw that list away. Because if you follow my plan for you, there’s no need to worry about becoming a fireman or a paramedic or anything else you do not wish to be. You are going to inherit the mantle of leadership from me and be the next Chief Executive Officer of my group of companies. So calm down my son. You have nothing to worry about. :)

What is World Pediatric Bone and Joint Day?

World Pediatric Bone and Joint Day occurs every October 19. According to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, more than 126 million Americans are impacted by musculoskeletal conditions. Many cases are brought on by obesity developed during childhood. World Pediatric Bone and Joint Day highlights obesity, screening, and prevention. The day also looks at symptoms, treatment, and economic impact.

Every third Wednesday of September is National School Backpack Awareness Day. This day was created to ensure children are wearing their backpacks properly and safely. Improper use of backpacks can cause back pain, discomfort, and even permanent injury. A simple backpack adjustment can prevent lifelong pain in children and also increase focus in the classroom.

National Walk and Bike to School Day

National Walk and Bike to School Day comes around yearly on the first Wednesday of October. The purpose of this day is not only to encourage children to get up and get moving before they’re stuck in class for hours, but also to develop a sense of confidence in themselves and their communities.

World Pediatric Bone and Joint Day - History

While the first Pediatric Bone and Joint Day — or PB&J Day — wasn’t celebrated until 2012, orthopedic medicine has far longer roots. Originally, the term “orthopedic” referred specifically to the correction of musculoskeletal deformities in children. Nicolas Andry, who was a professor of medicine at the University of Paris, coined the term in his textbook published in 1741. This book, which was directed towards parents, advocated for exercise, manipulation, and splinting to treat child bone deformities. 40 years later, In 1780, Jean-Andre Venel opened the first orthopedic institute, which was dedicated to treating children’s skeletal deformities.

The modern hip replacement was introduced in the 1960s by English tribologist Sir John Charnley, who made the connection that implants can be used to replace joint surfaces. He designed a one piece stainless steel femoral stem & head and an acetabular component, both of which were used to fix the bone along with bone cement. The Charnley Low Friction Arthroplasty and designs that evolved from it were used for over two decades for hip replacement procedures. In the 1970s knee replacements, using similar technology, commenced for patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

USSR doctor, Gavril Abramovich Ilizarov, made a major contribution to orthopedic procedures without much training in the specialized field. Sent to look after Russian soldiers in 1950s Siberia, he came face to face with crippling conditions, infections, and bone malalignments. Employing the assistance of a nearby bicycle shop, he invented external ring fixators, similar to the spokes on a bike. With this, he was able to heal, realign, and lengthen to an unprecedented degree. The Ilizarov apparatus is still used by surgeons to this day.

National New Friend Day Related Holidays

National Make A Friend Day

You need your friends, both old and new. National Make a Friend Day arrives annually on February 11. It’s a day for taking stock of all your friendships and looking for ways to add to your personal universe. A new friendship can open you up to new experiences. Friends provide us with the comfort of a safe emotional space where we can be ourselves. Good friends are our biggest treasure.

National Friendship Day

Friendship matters. On National Friendship Day every August 4, you have a chance to reflect on the friendships that improve your quality of life. One of the great things about friends, is that you can discuss important things with them that you might never share with your family. That’s because good friends are the family that you choose. Celebrate them on National Friendship Day.

International Day of Friendship

We have a question for you—would you say your friendships enrich your life? The United Nations General Assembly puts such a high value on the power of friendships that they proclaimed July 30 as International Day of Friendship. The internet has enabled people to reach out across the Digital Divide to connect with those who may live a life completely different from our own. Developing international friendships helps our humanity.

National New Friends Day - History

National New Friends Day seems to have developed out of several existing holidays built around friends and friendship. Generally, there are several variations on a theme with National Make a Friend Day on February 11, Friendship Day and International Friendship Day both celebrated annually either on July 30 or August 1. However, National New Friends Day, seems to be an internet-generated holiday. There’s no actual date of first appearance but there are several related days with interesting origins. So, read on.

All of these days seem to spring out of a promotional effort by Hallmark Cards’ founder, Joyce Hall in the 1920s as a marketing tool to consumers. Unfortunately, a skeptical public never really embraced the idea of a friendship day. By the 1920s, consumers were influenced by evolving movements in art and film and probably the promotion of friendship was viewed as a bit gimmicky. This started a downward spiral for a Friendship Day resulting in little interest in the 1930s. By the 1940s, Friendship Day all but disappeared. Still, Paraguay initiated World Friendship Day in 1958. Everybody needs friends.

Then, something strange happened. Friendship Day became a “thing” in Asia with lots of interest and strong popularity. With the rise of the internet, GIFS and memes, it’s easy to cross physical boundaries to make friends across countries and even continents. By 2011, the General Assembly of the United Nations got in on the action with another day, International Friendship Day, declaring its annual observance on July 30. This day is also celebrated on the first Sunday in August.

National New Friends Day FAQs

Who invented National New Friends Day?
National New Friends Day is a spin-off from other friendship-type days that were originally created by Hallmark Cards as a promotional tool in the 1920s.

How do you celebrate National New Friends Day?
Your creativity is your celebration. Make or give gifts (the more modest, the better as these are new friends…). The best gift would be to simply spend quality time with your new friend. Get to know their likes and dislikes. Share your story, too!

Is there an international girlfriend day?
There’s a National Girlfriends Day every year on August 1. This is primarily as a day for girls and women to bond with their besties. Celebrate with lunch outings, movie nights or sleepovers. Just enjoy your girl crew for a day!

National New Friends Day Activities

Get to know an acquaintance better
If there’s someone you’ve always wanted to get to know better, now is the time to go for it. Maybe it’s someone you always run into at the local cafe, or a coworker you always wanted to get to know better. Celebrate New Friends Day by sharing a little conversation (and maybe a sandwich) with your coworker.

Make sure your current friendships are healthy and happy
Today is a great day to take stock of the current friendships in your life. Make sure that all of your friendships are mutually beneficial. Are you being a good friend to the people closest to you? Are they doing the same for you? If you’ve got any toxic friends in your life, now is the time to consider trying to resolve those issues or peacefully ending the friendship. It’s not easy, but it makes room for new friendships that are more fulfilling.

Attend your local neighborhood meeting
One of the best ways to make new friends is to get involved in local activities. Join a community volunteer group or a meet-up focused on a hobby you’re passionate about. Showing up to your first meeting might be intimidating, but it’s the first step to making new friends with people who share some of your passions. At a block party, new friends may hang out on your front porch, for a change!

Why We Love National New Friends Day

Friendship makes us happier
Friendship makes us feel included. When we’re surrounded by close friends, we feel like we’re being “seen” and that we matter. So many of the reasons people struggle in life are due to loneliness. Forging new friendships helps us combat some of the most common culprits of unhappiness. Of course, friendship is reciprocal — your new bond can enrich your new friend’s life just as much as your own.

Our friends are a reflection of who we are
According to famed motivational speaker Jim Rohn, we are the average of the five people with whom we spend the most time. If your friends are kind, hardworking and motivated people, you’re more likely to have those traits as well. Like attracts like.

New friends expand our horizons
We have to remind ourselves that it’s okay to be different. Sometimes, the only way we’ll learn about all the exciting hobbies, thoughts, or beliefs in this world is through watching a friend explore them. Making friends with people from different walks of life is a great way to better understand the world around you and to grow as a person.

Sweetest Day

What is Sweetest Day?
To put it simply, Sweetest Day every October 19, is a day to be sweet by sharing a kind thought, a small gift or a gesture of kindness. It’s a day to give a card with a sweet message to someone you appreciate. Little gifts of candy and other sweets are shared, as well.

Sweetest Day Related Holidays

Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day every February 14 is the sweetest day of the year! It’s a day for romance, even if you’re just romancing yourself! Gift a teddy bear or a box of candies to someone you care about. But this day starts out in history as an homage to an actual St. Valentine, the patron saint of love and affection. 200 years later, Valentine’s Day warms us to the cockles of our hearts.

National Chocolate Candy Day

So if you missed the treats on Halloween or need a last sugary fix before the new year, spend some quality time with chocolate candy!

Sweetest Day - History

Sweetest Day hails from all the way back in 1922 when a dozen of Cleveland’s candy companies banded together to make the day a little sweeter for some of the city’s most vulnerable people. they distributed more than 20,000 boxes of candy to “newsboys, orphans, old folks, and the poor.”

The idea caught on with movie celebrities during the early days of the talkies. Starlets like Theda Bara, who was known as a “bad girl” of film, was often seen distributing candy to people attending movies or plays as well as giving treats to patients in hospitals.

Eventually, the idea of Sweetest Day as a vehicle for promoting smiles and good vibes took solid root in the country’s mid-section. Areas like Michigan, Indiana and Ohio really fused the meaning of the day with good, old-fashioned mid-western values like honesty and caring for your neighbors.

Sweetest Day is now almost synonymous with Valentine’s Day. Folks give flowers, small gifts, love trinkets and, of course, candy to those they care about most. But Sweetest Day, also has that added emphasis on helping those in need with material gifts as well as giving moral support to those who may not have the easiest lives. Every little bit helps and it’s something to remember on one of our Sweetest Days.

Sweetest Day FAQs
What does Sweetest Day mean?

The Sweetest Day refers to a day of showing affection with little gifts of candy or acts of kindness to those you care about or anyone who could use a little support. This day primarily impacts Americans in the regions of the Great Lakes.

Is Sweetest Day for men or for women?
If you live in the Midwest, you know that Sweetest Day is synonymous with Boyfriend Day. Sweetest Day is mainly a day for women to treat their close male friends, husbands or boyfriends with gifts of candy and other sweet gestures.

Is Sweetest Day an actual holiday?
No. But it is faithfully observed primarily in the Midwest and increasingly, throughout other parts of the country. The day was started by a candy company employee in Cleveland in 1922.

Sweetest Day Activities

Make a list of all your sweeties
If you’re really going to get the most out of Sweetest Day, it’s probably best to write a list of people you feel sweet towards. Rather than restricting yourself to a significant other, think about all the people you want to celebrate today. Who knows, maybe you can even use the day to make amends with a jerk coworker or two!? We’re big fans of spreading the sweetness as far and wide as possible.

Distribute some candy
Ideally, you’re looking to give your candy out in sweet presentations such as in heart-shaped boxes, or with ribbons and bows attached. Remember that the objects of your sweet affections will be bowled over if you make a little extra effort, and since you’re doing this, let’s go big or go home, huh?

Do something nice
Hey, you don’t just have to give candy, baked goods and cards. Maybe you could take somebody out for the day, or tell them you love them. There’s plenty of things you can do to make the day sweet without relying mainly on sugar. But, don’t forget the sugar. We’re clear on that, right? SUGAR!

Why We Love Sweetest Day

It’s about whatever you want
The great thing about a holiday that’s essentially a confection of its own is that you can make it about whatever you want. The idea is to share some sweets and let the good vibes flow!

It’s an opportunity to celebrate being midwestern
The midwest admittedly has some tough winters and can often play second fiddle to their coastal neighbors on either side. So it is great when the midwest has something so pure and sweet to call their very own. Warms the heart, and a good thing too, winter is just around the corner.

Valentine’s Day is just once a year
Best thing about Sweetest Day? Unlike Valentine’s Day, there’s no pressure. So if there’s someone you’re sweet on, you can let them know with some candy! There’s no need to cook dinner or take them out in the evening — just a little candy does the trick. Plus, you can spread a little cheer to coworkers, family members or whoever you wish.

Impressive Buddy. Very Impressive. Now I know what I would like to have as my 40th Birthday present next year. Hopefully, I will live long enough to celebrate my 40th birthday. However, if my heart recovers and becomes strong enough for me to be able to jog or run again by my 40th birthday, that recovery will be the BEST and much better birthday present for me.

***** Texas Saturday Breakfast *****

Wooo! It is Saturday breakfast time again! And it is one of our all-time favorites - ToastFest! For your fine dining pleasure, today will be toast, toast, toast and more toast! Oh Yeah! For the ultimate toast experience, we will start right off with traditional white bread, soft and spongy right out of the plastic bag! This is the stuff toast dreams are made of. These pillows of bready goodness are toasted until golden brown on one side, slathered in farm-fresh, Genuine Texas Angus butter, churned freshly daily, and then lightly toasted on the other side just until the butter bubbles and browns giving it a nutty deliciosity that is unmatched in any other breakfast treat. For the health-conscious, we have brown whole wheat bread. For the gonzo health nuts, we have Seventeen Grain Nut Loaf with all kinds of healthy grassy things ground up made into a bread of sorts that can be toasted. Of course, there will be thick slab Texas Toast either toasted in the oven or grilled on the flat top. We also have super-yummy cinnamon toast and cinnamon-raisin bread toast. For the funky-inclined, we have rye bread toast, pumpernickel toast, rosemary bread toast, Challah bread toast, and English Toasting Bread toast. That English Toasting Bread is really good stuff and comes highly recommended for the true toast connoisseur. The chefs just keep popping out so many types of bread, if you don't see something you like, just ask. Onto the toast toppings! Woo, we are swooning now. If you thought that was a lot of toast, there are almost more toppings for toast, glorious toast. Nature's Finest Food! We will just start listing them - plain ol' Buttered Toast (salted or no), Flavored Butter Toast, Peanut Butter Toast, Peanut Butter and Jelly Toast, Nutella Toast, Honey Toast, Cheese Toast, Applesauce on Toast, Peanut Butter and Banana Toast and Peanut Butter and Apple Toast. Jellies and other condiments include the ubiquitous electric-purple grape, strawberry preserves, banana compote, orange marmalade, blueberry preserves, blackberry jam, guava, persimmon, and pomegranate preserves. Not into sweet toppings for your toast? We have cream gravy, with or without the chipped beef. Our friends in Wales even sent us some rarebits for Toastfest. Las Abuelitas seized on that idea and are furiously whipping up pan tostada con queso! Not to be left out, our friends in Scotland sent over a very small batch of haggis that we will slice and fry up to put on some soda bread toast for an, um, real treat. The offerings are mind-boggling for this wonderful breakfast food that is awesome at any time of the day! The Special Breakfast Beverage of the Day is brought to us by Vincent of The Dominion of United Vinceland and is a fresh and funky one - the Maple Chai Tea Latte, a unique blend of Chai tea infused with cinnamon and delicately blended with coconut milk, vanilla, and a fine Maple Syrup imported from our friends in Canada! Woo! This will either wake you up or put you right back to sleep! Thank you, Vincent! The Juice Bar today features a modified new one - The Grisly Green Goblin - Liquified (mostly) Spinach, Kale, Parsley, Cucumber, Celery AND Green Jalapeños. Mmm! Start your day off the right way; munch out and go back to sleep. Of course, The Never Ending Urn of Coffee is full and ready to help you wash it all down. Texas coffee doesn't get much better. Enjoy Texas! You know you want to!®

Um...I think it's either "I'll be there for you", "I'm keeping an eye on you" or "My eyes are on you."

How do I ask God for a "guardian angel" for my Dad? Cause my Dad needs a "guardian angel" or maybe "guardian angels" cause I love my Dad and I don't want him to be injured or sick again. :(

World Osteoporosis Day Related Holidays

Bone and Joint Health National Action Week

Bone and Joint Health National Action Week from October 12-20 is your relief for an aching back and joints because you’ll get great information on the causes and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions. Bone and Joint Action Week centers around discussions on preventing and treating arthritis, back pain, trauma, pediatric conditions affecting bones and osteoporosis.

This year’s theme is “Get Off Your Apps.” Let’s encourage children to turn off their devices and connect with family and friends through constructive play, family exercise, and physical education programs at school and at home.

National Rural Health Day

National Rural Health Day offers up the entire day of November 21 to get some fresh air and spend a little time outside our congested cities. This day focuses on the state of rural healthcare. With that in mind, we celebrate the providers, healthcare professionals and community leaders who keep the spirit of small-town America alive.

World Osteoporosis Day – History

World Osteoporosis Day (WOD) is the annual highpoint of activities sponsored by the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), which is deeply involved in educating the public about this devastating bone disease. Osteoporosis renders bones so frail and brittle that any slight action including even a sneeze or a fall can be life-threatening, causing never-ending pain and discomfort from entire bone breaks and fractures.

World Osteoporosis Day began in the United Kingdom. With support by the European Commission, World Osteoporosis Day became a project of the National Osteoporosis Society in the United Kingdom on October 20, 1996.

It’s interesting to note that prior to 1994, osteoporosis wasn’t even considered a major disease. But in 1998, two prominent organizations committed to educating the public about osteoporosis, combined to create the International Osteoporosis Foundation.

The founding of the IOF was a combination of the joint efforts of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis (EFFO) created in 1987 and the International Federation of Societies on Skeletal Diseases (IFSSD), which was initiated in 1995. By bringing both organizations together under a single umbrella, there was a better focus and a co-mingling of resources for the world’s scientists, doctors and other health advocacy organizations who were fighting osteoporosis.

By the late 90s, the UN’s World Health Organization (WHO) co-sponsored World Osteoporosis Day events with the IOF. Since that time, the IOF has taken over much of the leadership in sponsoring awareness-raising events all over the world.

One of the most important events for WOD is checking bone density. Bones that are less dense are more liable to easily break or fracture at sudden movement or during minor falls. These bone density tests are available on WOD all over the world. But there are events taking place globally that not only raise awareness but are all just plain fun! To find out more, log onto the IOF website.

World Osteoporosis Day FAQs

Does osteoporosis get worse with time?
The primary culprit for osteoporosis is the spinal compression fracture. It can get worse if you are in motion, like walking, running or standing.

Is osteoporosis reversible?
You can’t reverse osteoporosis but with the right treatments, you can slow down its effects.

Can osteoporosis shorten your life expectancy?
With better treatments for newly-diagnosed patients suffering from osteoporosis, women under age 75 and men under age 60 can expect to live an extra 15 years.

How to Observe World Osteoporosis Day

Wear your whites
To celebrate and bring awareness to World Osteoporosis Day, make sure to wear all white in honor of the occasion. Wearing all white is one way to draw some attention to the day and start a conversation with someone about it.

Get healthy
Be proactive on World Osteoporosis Day and take a bone density test. Find out about your osteoporosis risk factors (if any) and learn what you can do to prevent them. If you haven’t been doing so before, commit to a healthy diet, take your vitamins and start an exercise routine to help your body stay strong and fracture-free.

Spread the word
World Osteoporosis Day doesn’t work if you keep it to yourself. Make sure you tell others about how important bone health is through social media, conversation, or even a blog post about your own experiences. Helping others understand their risk will give everyone the opportunity to live their longest, healthiest lives.

Why World Osteoporosis Day is Important

Understanding your risk is key
Using World Osteoporosis Day to discuss your risk factors is one of the many reasons for the day. People are living longer today than ever before because of medical innovations. That’s why you want to have the best quality of life possible as you age. Getting educated on your risk factors is a big step in osteoporosis prevention.

Getting tested can save a life
Using World Osteoporosis Day to understand what your bones do in the body and all the ways you can keep them strong can save your life. Use this day to talk to professionals about the best way to strengthen your body or to begin treatments if necessary.

Start strong, live strong
You don’t have to be a weightlifter to have healthy bones. Learn what foods add to bone density and what daily practices to have so that you live your best life on World Osteoporosis Day and all the days to come.

Back to the Future Day

It’s a 1985 fantasy/sci-fi classic that grossed nearly $400 million worldwide! Now, throw on your Nikes, pop in a VHS and rev up your time traveling car because October 21 is Back to the Future Day. First celebrated in 2015 ( that’s the year that Marty McFly and Doc Brown time-travel to in Back to the Future Part II), Back to the Future Day is a fun way to celebrate your past and get excited for your future.

Back to the Future Day – History

1985
John DeLorean's "thank you"

The creators of the movie, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, decided to use a DeLorean as the car that enables Marty McFly and Doc to time travel; after the film’s release, Zemeckis and Gale received a thank-you letter from John DeLorean for using his car in the movie.

1982
The short-lived company closes

After selling only 9,000 DeLoreans, production ceased and authorities charged John DeLorean with selling cocaine as a means to save his company.

1981
The first DeLorean was rolled out

The first car, built in Ireland, was produced on January 21.

1980
An expensive holiday promotion

American Express advertised a DeLorean plated in 24-karat gold. The price tag? $85,000. Only two sold.

1973
John DeLorean branched out to create his own company

John DeLorean, who worked for Chevrolet, Chrysler, Packard, and Pontiac, established his own company with a vision of the DeLorean DMC-12.

Back to the Future Day Activities

Create a time capsule
Just like you did back when you were a kid — and if you have kids they’ll love doing this, too — fill a box with items you’d want your future self to enjoy opening. For instance, things like pictures, tickets from a concert, or items from your wedding. And since this is something you’ll open in the future, be sure to also fill your box with things like a letter to your future self, a list of goals you hope to accomplish, or make resolutions you hope to change overtime. Once your box is full, put in your basement, in the back of a closet or — if you know you’ll be living in the same house for awhile — bury it in the backyard.

Go through old photos
Whip out boxes of old photos and reminisce about the past. If you have kids, this is a fun activity to do with them — if not, invite friends and family over (have them bring pictures, too) and talk about the good ol’ days.

Do like Doc and try to “fix” your past
Okay, you may not have a DeLorean that’ll take you back in time to fix your past, but you can try to improve your present and your future by righting some wrongs. For example, reach out to an old friend you’ve lost touch with, try to mend a relationship, or pay back debts you may owe to someone.

5 Reason To Rewatch "Back To The Future."

The film predicted three technological advances
Although most of the futuristic details in the movie have not come true, it did include communication similar to FaceTime, voice recognition, and thumb print technology.

It wasn’t a popular script
Major movie studios passed on the original screenplay.

Some executives hated the movie title
A Universal Pictures executive wrote a memo saying he wanted the title of the movie changed to "Spaceman From Pluto," to which director Steven Spielberg responded by thanking him for the “joke memo.”

President Reagan used a quote from the movie.
President Reagan liked the fact that he was mentioned in the movie several times. He used the quote “Where we’re going, we don’t need cars” in his 1986 State of the Union speech.

Royalty attended the premiere
Princess Diana made an appearance at the movie’s premier in 1985.

Why We Love Back to the Future Day

It’s your time to reflect on the past
Because Back to the Future Day celebrates a movie that’s related to the past and the future, it makes you reflect on just about everything. Take time to ponder things you’ve accomplished over the past few years, as well as things you regret and may want to improve upon.

It’s an opportunity to set goals
As the name suggests, Back to the Future Day is about the future, so it’s the perfect time to set goals. Use this day to write down hopes and dreams that your future self will be proud of.

It’s an excuse to watch the movie
Whether you’ve seen it a million times or not, there’s no better day to watch the movie than Back to the Future Day. So on October 21, start streaming!

National Check Your Meds Day

What is National Check Your Meds Day?

National Check Your Meds Day, observed every October 21 and sponsored by the National Community Pharmacists Association, prompts consumers to bring their prescriptions to their local pharmacists for review. Pharmacists can remove any prescriptions that have expired, update prescriptions as necessary, and answer consumer questions. If nothing else, it’s a rare chance for consumers to get free medical advice.

National Check Your Meds Day Related Holidays

National Pharmacist Day

National Pharmacist Day is an annual holiday celebrated on January 12. Our pharmacists have one of the most important jobs within the health industry. On this day, we take a moment to let them know how much we appreciate them managing our medicines and making sure we take them correctly

International Patient Safety Day

International Patient Safety Day comes around once a year on September 17. The purpose of this day is to ensure patients are getting the proper care and attention they need from their health providers to guarantee their safe delivery of care as well as encouraging patients to do their own research to contribute to the process of keeping themselves safe.

National Health Education Week

The third full week of October is National Health Education Week. The Society for Public Health Education along with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services have co-sponsored this day together since 1995. The day advocates for people of all ages to get educated on healthy habits and lifestyles as well as raise awareness on major public health issues.

National Check Your Meds Day – History

There has always been a distinction between those who directly work with ill patients and those who create pharmaceutical remedies. Pharmacists originally went by the title apothecaries, and are even found in Greek Mythology where Asclepius, who was the god of healing, gave Hygieia the duty to compound his remedies. In ancient Egypt, the medical profession was split into two classes: the ones who visited the sick and the ones who prepared antidotes. In 1683, the city council of Bruges made it illegal for physicians to both visit and prepare medications for their patients. Later on, in the new country of America, Benjamin Franklin assigned an apothecary to the Pennsylvania Hospital, furthering the distinction between the two specializations.

The events of World War II led to big pharmaceutical discoveries, such as new and highly effective medications. The role of the pharmacist also changed due to post World War II events, making it so pharmacists were no longer the makers of remedies, but were still knowledgeable in all medicines prescribed to patients. They went from making medicines behind the scenes to consulting patients directly, offering advice, medical directions, and correct dosage instructions. Now pharmacists have a more hands on role than they did traditionally, and though they no longer make antidotes in house, it doesn’t make them any less knowledgable in their craft.

Officially established in 2017 by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Check Your Meds Day is a day for patients to gain a clearer understanding of exactly what their prescribed medication does, how it affects them, if they’re taking them correctly, and if there’s a more cost-effective alternative to what they’re being prescribed.

National Check Your Meds Day FAQs

Are my medications safe to take together?
Taking more than one prescribed medication at a time, or taking medication with specific foods and beverages, always has a risk of drug interaction. It’s always recommend that you consult a doctor or pharmacist when starting any new medication.

What pills should you not mix with alcohol?
Consult a doctor or pharmacist before taking any medication with alcohol. There are many medications that should never be mixed with alcohol and getting educated by a professional is crucial.

How long should you wait between medications?
Always refer to your medication’s instructions and/or pharmacist for information as to how long to wait between medications, as the time period differs depending on the prescription.

How to Observe National Check Your Meds Day

Get 'em checked
Individuals who take prescription drugs should take advantage of the opportunity to spend some time with their local pharmacist and get their meds checked. Don't miss the opportunity to develop a closer relationship with your pharmacist and become better educated about the drugs you're taking.

Round up friends and family
Especially for those with elderly friends and family members who rely on prescription medications, encourage them to participate in National Check Your Meds Day and visit their local pharmacist. They will be reassured about their prescriptions (often a source of anxiety) and be more confident when taking their meds.

Promote participation
Hey pharmacists, do everything you can to participate in National Check Your Meds Day and to promote it through an event or other type of marketing effort. Put a banner up outside the pharmacy and set up a table in the parking lot to let patients know you're fully participating in the day.

3 Reasons To Always Take Your Meds

Keeps you healthier
Those who follow their meds regimen reduce risk of getting sick by 26 percent.

Keeps you alive
Those with similar conditions who consistently take their meds live longer than those who don't.

Healthy behavior
Those who strictly follow their regimen are also more likely to live healthier by eating better and exercising.

Why National Check Your Meds Day is Important

Safety first
National Check Your Meds Day ensures that consumers are safely taking the right doses and the right prescriptions. By participating, consumers can be reassured that their meds are in good hands and that they're doing the right things to maintain good health.

Questions answered
Consumers should be curious about their meds, be as educated as possible about the effects the meds are intended to have, and what warning signs to look for. By participating in National Check Your Meds Day, consumers can maintain a good relationship with their pharmacist and get answers to important questions.

Good outreach for pharmacists
By participating in National Check Your Meds Day, pharmacists send the message that they want to look out for the best interests of patients and be proactive in helping to maintain consumer health.

National Pets for Veterans Day

It all started with a dog named Bear. Bear was quite the ham and knew how to interact differently based on the individual needs of the Veterans. He would lie quietly on the bed if needed or put his paws up to encourage others. This led many Veterans to ask if they could take Bear home with them. Bear’s owner thought, “why is therapy one hour a week inside when it could be 24/7 at home?” Since Bear was spoken for, his owner thought she could help more veterans find their own Bear to help them rehabilitate.

National Pets for Veterans Day Activities

Visit a Shelter
Visit a shelter and offer to pay the adoption fee for a Veteran.

Toy Collection
Collect dog/cat toys and donate them to a local shelter.

Say Thank You
Visit a VA facility and thank the Veterans.

Why We Love National Pets for Veterans Day

Remembering Vets
It’s important to remember and honor our Veterans as often as possible

Raise Pet Awareness
It raises awareness of how many animals in shelters could make wonderful pets

Mental Health Benefit of Having a Pet
It emphasizes the benefits animals provide on a daily basis.

International Stuttering Awareness Day

What is International Stuttering Awareness Day?

International Stuttering Awareness Day is observed annually on October 22. Stuttering is a communication disorder in which repetitions — or abnormal stoppages of sounds and syllables — break the flow of speech. There may also be unusual facial and body movements associated with speaking. International Stuttering Awareness Day shines a helpful spotlight on stutterers and educates the public about the causes.

This May, learn what you can do to prevent and lessen joint pain in yourself and the people you love.

World Psoriasis Day

Psoriasis is a skin condition triggered by an overactive immune system in which skin cells build up and form itchy dry patches and scales. World Psoriasis Day is observed annually on the 29 of October and works to spread information and deepen the understanding of the condition.

International Stuttering Awareness Day - History
Established in 1998, International Stuttering Awareness Day brings attention to the millions of people around the world living with this specific communication disorder. Usually when people refer to stuttering, they imagine the repetition of a specific word; however stuttering comes in many other forms, including elongation of a vowel or syllable. This condition is also variable, meaning that the severity of the stutter is inconsistent. Some days a person might only stutter a few times while others the stutter may affect most of their interactions.

Stuttering has been around longer than people have been able to record their interactions involving the condition, but a lack of understanding for the disorder resulted in years of unfair treatment. Passages in the Bible are written to indicate that Moses spoke with a stammer. Claudius, who would later become a Roman emperor, was originally shunned and excluded from public office because people believed that stuttering was a sign of unintelligence.

In 19 century Europe, surgery was recommended for people impacted by the speech disorder. Surgeons would use scissors to remove a triangular wedge from the back of the tongue, as well as cutting nerves and muscles in the neck and lips. Other surgeons practiced shorting the uvula or removing the tonsils. These practices were later abandoned as patients were bleeding to death, and those who survived still had their stutter.

Though it is now understood that stuttering is a neurological disorder that can be developmental (obtained as a child) or acquired (developed as an adult due to trauma or drug abuse), there is still an air of stigma that follows those who live with it. This International Stuttering Awareness Day, take the time to learn about the 1% of humanity affected and what you can do to help others stay educated on the condition.

International Stuttering Awareness Day FAQs
Is there a cure for stuttering?

There is no real cure for stuttering, but there are speech therapy classes for those looking for ways to manage the disorder. However, it is not 100% guaranteed that they will always work. Children will sometimes lose their stutter as they go through puberty or enter adulthood, while adults who have never stuttered through childhood may develop a stutter later in life.

Is stuttering a mental disorder?
Stuttering is a neurological speech disorder that can be obtained genetically or through trauma that affects the brain.

What is the difference between a stammer and a stutter?
Stammering and stuttering can be used interchangeably to describe the same disorder; however it is more common to use the word “stuttering” in the U.S., while “stammering” is more often used in Britain.

How to Observe International Stuttering Awareness Day

Get educated
Stutterers suffer from social stigma that can lead to bullying in children and ostracism in adults. Through the resources provided by International Stuttering Awareness Day, individuals and families can learn more about how to support those with a stutter and decrease the stigma that surrounds it.

Attend the online conference
Each year, the International Stuttering Association hosts an online event to mark International Stuttering Awareness Day. The public is free to participate in the online event, which focuses on a different theme every year and brings together individuals from around the world.

Get involved
If you have a friend or family member who stutters you can get involved by helping to educate those they may come into contact with. For example, the National Stuttering Association provides educational materials that parents of stutterers can use to aid teachers.

5 Myths About Stuttering
Nervousness

Though it may sound like a person is falling over their words, being nervous is not the main cause of stuttering. Instead of telling people who stutter to take a deep breath, patiently wait for them to get to the end of their sentence without cutting them off.

Shyness
Shyness may cause stutterers to speak less, but it is not an an underlying cause of stuttering. People who stutter might be afraid of judgement, so show them they can trust you by giving them the same amount of attention you would to those who don't stutter.

It's just a habit
Stuttering is a neurological condition, not a habit that can be easily broken. Though people who stutter may enroll in speech therapy classes, these classes are more so to build confidence in their speech rather than promise to cure the condition.

Lack of intellegence
Lots of smart people have stutters. Although stuttering is linked to a specific area of the brain, it doesn't affect a person's intelligence.

Bad parents
While bad parenting might make a child's stuttering worse, it is not the root cause of stuttering. However, if you believe a child is in a dangerous situation, don't hesitate to contact the police.

Why International Stuttering Awareness Day is Important

Stuttering is misunderstood
There are many myths surrounding stuttering and those who live with the condition. For example, contrary to what many think, it's not caused by nervousness or shyness. International Stuttering Awareness Day educates the public about stuttering and thereby diminishes the stigma.

It provides assistance
International Stuttering Awareness Day provides hope to people who stutter by showing them they're not alone and by providing them with resources to improve their speech. It connects individuals with research and speech pathologists.

It's a community
The National Stuttering Association is a community of people who share their challenges and stories with each other. By attending events and workshops, often delivered through local chapters, those who stutter can meet and learn from others with similar stories.

National Nut Day

What is National Nut Day?
National Nut Day is celebrated annually on October 22 throughout the world.

This is your day for nutty fun!

National Walnut Day

National Walnut Day on May 17 is a love fest for walnuts. The Walnut Marketing Board established National Walnut Day in the 1950s, and we’ve celebrated on May 17 ever since.

National Peanut Butter Day

National Peanut Butter Day on January 24 is a day-long ode to the favorite afternoon snack of America’s children. For years, hungry kids have come home from school and the first thing they reach for is, you guessed it, peanut butter! It’s a natural reaction to the creamy or crunchy taste of our favorite nut. Paired with the jam or jelly of your choice, there’s nothing better. National Peanut Butter Day, let us count the ways.

National Nut Day – History

National Nut Day was created by Liberation Foods Company as a way to do the right thing by the collectives of small nut farmers around the world. It was important to the company to stress to the public that their nuts were not only sustainably-grown, but that the company was committed to giving their nut farmers a fair minimum wage for their labor and their crops. Farmers growing Brazil nuts, peanuts and cashews from Malawi, Brazil, India, El Salvador and other Third World countries came together to form a Fair Trade collective under Liberation Foods’ umbrella.

National Nut Day appeared in 2015 on Liberation Foods website. Although the company is based in the United Kingdom, this holiday has spread far and wide, especially in the United States. The day is devoted to all things nuts-related including recipes and cooking tips. Many African countries infuse their daily meals with peanuts on a regular basis in stews and soups.

According to the Nutcracker Museum, nuts were a regular part of the human diet from as far back as almost 800,000 years ago! Early man used “nutting tools” to crack stones. Pecan remains from 6100 B.C. were discovered in a Texas cave. Early Europeans ate pistachios while Greeks and Romans believed that walnuts were a gift from the gods.

Eventually, the English sailed the Mediterranean with walnuts onboard ships. The nuts were used for trading. By the 18th century, walnuts arrived in the New World, specifically, California, when the Franciscan monks set foot on these new shores.

So, no matter what you eat today; include a healthy helping of nuts. They have lots of health benefits and they make you happy. That’s important to remember on National Nut Day!

Leave your coworkers a nutty treat
Want to brighten up someone's day at work? Buy a family-size container of mixed nuts at your local market and make snack-sized goodie bags for your coworkers. It's an inexpensive treat many will go nuts for. (Just make sure no one has peanut allergies!)

Add them to your meal
Try grabbing a handful of your favorite nut and adding them to your breakfast oatmeal, lunch chicken salad, or that veggie stir-fry you're making for dinner. The added protein will make your stomach (and muscles) happy.

In her book, "I was Winston Churchill's Personal Secretary," Phyllis Moir mentioned that Churchill grew up with a stutter.

Some of the funniest exchanges recorded in history were between Sir. Winston Churchill and Lady Astor. Lady Astor was the wide eyed screaming progressive to Churchill's conservative. As Lady Aston was notoriously high strung and lacking a lot of impulse control when she spoke, they frequently traded highly public verbal barbs.

Upon seeing Churchill at a party, Astor said in loud voice, "Churchill, you're drunk."
Churchill replied in an equally loud voice, "Lady Aston, you are ugly. However in the morning, I will be undeniably sober."

Another exchange resulted in Aston's frustration at Churchill's wisdom in routinely derailing her pacifist agendas. Aston declared, "Mr, Churchill, were I your wife I would poison your tea!"
Without missing a beat, Churchill replied, "Lady Aston, were I your husband, I would drink it."

I need to find that book about Churchill and read it again. Very fascinating with numerous examples of Churchill's wit and wisdom.

There may be hope for our neighbors to the north after all. Might not be too late.
