How to set and accomplish goals or resolutions
 About 70 percent of the population of the United States has resolved to make a resolution this year, a promise to take charge of their own lives and change them for the better.

Many people out there think they were rather clever with their New Year's resolutions and that they are really going to stick to their guns this year. Chances are that your new year's resolutions fall into at least some of the same categories as the other millions upon millions of American citizens out there who have decided to make resolutions this year.

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
by Clement Clarke Moore (Henry Livingston Jr.)
 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,

Fathers Day: Gift Ideas, Shopping & History
Father's Day 2011 is June 18. The idea of Father’s Day was conceived by Sonora Dodd of Spokane, Washington, while she listened to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, a widowed Civil War veteran who was left to raise his six children on a farm. A day in June was chosen for the first Father’s Day celebration—June 19, 1910, proclaimed by Spokane’s mayor because it was the month of William Smart’s birth. The first presidential proclamation honoring fathers was issued in 1966 when President Lyndon Johnson designated the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Father’s Day has been celebrated annually since 1972 when President Richard Nixon signed the public law that made it permanent.
