PingPong the Panda:

American Thanksgiving Day is less than a week away — Thursday,
November 27^th. Did you know:

In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln established the
original date for a national Thanksgiving Day celebration.

 
Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the U.S.
national bird.

A turkey's field of vision is 270 degrees.

The heaviest turkey ever raised was 86 pounds –
about the size of a German Shepherd!

Only male (tom) turkeys gobble.

The average age of the Mayflower passenger was 32.
The oldest Mayflower passenger was 64.

The average person consumes 4,500 calories on
Thanksgiving Day.

DotComplicated:

We’re in Irvine, California, and are grateful we don't have to
evacuate because of the fires. About this time last year,
more than 800,000 people in Southern California did have to
leave their homes.

We hope the air here doesn't get smoky the way it did last
year. A lot of people wore masks. Here are some tips on what
to do when air conditions are unhealthful:

  Everyone should avoid all vigorous exertion,
indoors or out;

  Residents with heart disease, respiratory
diseases including asthma, as well as the elderly and
children should stay indoors;

  Keep windows and doors closed unless it is extremely
hot inside. In these cases, seek alternate shelter; and

  Turn on an air conditioner if you have one. Keep
the fresh air intake closed and the filter clean to minimize
outdoor smoke entering the house.

 
Thank you to the South Coast Air Quality Management District
for the above suggestions. Here are updates on the Southern
California fires.

Computious:

The economy rests heavily on most of our minds these days.

What attitude gives us the strongest possibility of weathering

these turbulent conditions? I believe it’s “realistic optimism.”

Staying focused on positive possibilities provides the energy

to face real-world problems and solve them satisfactorily.

Sweet & Sour:

Tomorrow is one of my favorite days of the year. The day we turn our

clocks back and get an extra hour! I know what I'll be doing. Getting

some "zzz's"! There are many good reasons to get enough sleep. Did

you know some researchers found fewer heart attacks occur the Monday

after clocks are set back in the fall and more occur the Monday when

clocks are set forward in the spring? Click here for an article on that. And

thank you Serge deFault for telling me about that article!

Elman the Elephant:

These days, a lot of us are looking for ways to save money. We found

a list of budget-saving tips for entertainment, including:
 

  - watching for discount days at museums, parks, theaters, zoos;

  - going in groups and getting a volume discount;

  - trying out a new restaurant during the day for dinner-quality
     food at lunch-time prices;

  - exchanging babysitting duties with other parents.

PingPong the Panda:

Our “subjective well-being” (how good we judge our life to be) is

determined by natural temperament, learned behavior, and circum-

stances. Researchers differ, though, on how influential a role each

of these factors plays. Some say genes determine 85 to 90 percent

of our happiness (article referenced at the end of this posting);

others say 50 percent.  

Here is a list of happiness contributors, from a PsychologyToday.com

article, which we can control in terms of what we expose ourselves to: 

  Friendship

  Sense of humor

  Volunteering/Charity work

  Good self-care (“healthy narcissism”)

  Beauty

  Money, up to a certain point

  Education

  Aging

  Average Intelligence

  Religion (participation in)

  Leisure involving physical activity and socializing

Sweet & Sour:

Did you know some of history’s most well-known achievers
were nappers? Geniuses Albert Einstein and Leonardo Da Vinci
practiced the art of the pick-me-up snooze. So did Winston
Churchill, Thomas Edison, and Napoleon Bonaparte. Research
indicates that for many people a brief “well-timed afternoon
nap may be the best way to combat sleepiness, improve work
performance, and overcome late day grogginess….” Click here

MeiMei:

A survey conducted by BIGResearch for the National Retail

Federation shows that more of us this year (64.5 percent)

will celebrate Halloween than last year (58.7 percent). So

more people will be buying candy, costumes and decorations

to get our minds off some scary times. Click here for the story.

Computious: 

My mom is reading a book called Bratproofing Your Children:

How to Raise Socially and Financially Responsible Kids. She

says she doesn't want us to become rude and spoiled. Mom

also wants us to know how to manage

money responsibly. The book has five rules

for parents to remember and seven character

qualities (like optimism and a strong work

ethic) to help "bratproof" us kids!
