This unsurprisingly has everything to do with catfish! Perhaps one of the lesser known days of recognition and celebration\, National Catfish Day has assisted the continued growth of this specific type of aqua farming across the USA.\nJune 25 is National Catfish Day in the USA. The holiday was designated by President Ronald Reagan on June 25 in 1987. National Catfish Day celebrates the value of farm-raised fish. \nOriginally the commemorative bill was proposed by Congressmen Mike Epsy\, who having recognised the industry as growing in his home state\, endeavoured to encourage the growth of the industry further afield. Catfish were not a popular choice of delicacy at the time. Although initially the bill was unsuccessful\, Mr Epsy garnered support from fellow congressmen and was also able\, by providing the best catfish luncheons to military leaders\, to ensure catfish was added to the military commissary menu. As a result his popularity at election time grew in his home state\, thanks to the increase in demand for catfish\, as did support for the bill. The text of the Proclamation by President Ronald Reagan\, illustrates the boom in the industry\, the increase in sales and the innovative methods developed to ensure the highest standards were met. \nSo why not look up some Catfish recipes and find out just why they make one of the USA’s most popular fish to eat? \n  \n  URL:https://www.awarenessdays.com/awareness-days-calendar/national-catfish-day-in-the-usa-2024/ CATEGORIES:Environmental Awareness,Food Awareness,June,US ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.awarenessdays.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/iStock-943355988-scaled-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240625 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240626 DTSTAMP:20240625T082937 CREATED:20231008T121723Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231008T121723Z UID:10017238-1719273600-1719359999@www.awarenessdays.com SUMMARY:Leon Day in the USA 2024 DESCRIPTION:Leon Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated in the United States on June 25.

Know your limits (swim\, surf and boat safely) \n5. You are what you eat (eat healthy seafood) \n6. Feed your mind. (read a book) \n7. Respect the Ocean (riptides\, storms\, natural resources) \nThe Clean Beaches Coalition also certifies beaches across the USA\, some of which are included in the annual USA Today Listing of the 10Best Beaches.

Milk chocolate is one of the sweetest types of chocolate. The minimum amount of cocoa solids contained in milk chocolate varies by country depending on the local regulations. In the USA the minimum amount of cocoa solids is 10% however in Europe this increases to 25%. Who knew milk chocolate could differ so much! The concentration of milk solids varies\, too\, from 12% in the United States and Canada to 14% in the European Union. \nSo go ahead\, make yourself a cup of milk chocolate\, stock up on your favourite milk chocolate treats and try not to make yourself feel ill! Just in case you need to justify the calorific intake\, just remember chocolate causes the brain to release endorphins. There’s no wonder a bit of chocolate makes us feel sooooo good and just in case you’re wondering where to begin with the chocolatey celebrations\, i’ll just leave this little gem of an easy chocolate mousse recipe right here………. you’re very welcome! \n \n\n\nEasy Milk Chocolate Mousses URL:https://www.awarenessdays.com/awareness-days-calendar/national-milk-chocolate-day-2024/ CATEGORIES:Food Awareness,July,US ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.awarenessdays.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/iStock-535414786-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240730 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240731 DTSTAMP:20240625T082937 CREATED:20231008T122024Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231008T122024Z UID:10017302-1722297600-1722383999@www.awarenessdays.com SUMMARY:National Cheesecake Day 2024 DESCRIPTION:You have probably realised by now that we LOVE a food observance and today is no exception! National Cheesecake Day is celebrated across the United States on July 30. \nIt is the perfect occasion to have a slice of one of America’s favorite desserts which comes in many different varieties. Cheesecake is a dessert consisting of pie crust and cheese filling (although sometimes it is made without crust). Despite its name\, cheesecake isn’t actually a cake; it may or may not be baked. The base can be made from pastry\, sponge cake\, graham crackers\, or crushed cookies. The cheese filling typically consists of soft cheese (usually cream cheese)\, sugar\, and eggs. \nCheesecake is often flavored. It comes in many flavors such as strawberry\, key like\, pumpkin\, chestnut\, toffee etc. Cheesecakes are sometimes topped with whipped cream\, fresh or canned fruit\, chocolate syrup\, fruit sauce\, nuts. \nThere are several major cheesecake varieties in North America. For instance\, New York style cheesecake is a rich and creamy dessert that contains sour cream or heavy cream. Philadelphia style cheesecake is richer in flavor and lighter in texture. Other cheesecake types include Pennsylvania Dutch style cheesecake\, farmer cheese cheesecake\, country style cheesecake\, and Chicago style cheesecake. \nAlthough the origins of the day are sketchy\, historians say that cheesecake can be traced back to the ancient Greeks. Its thought that the ancient Greek cheesecake was somewhat different to the type we consume today\, but the modern day cheesecake can actually be attributed to the English. \nTo celebrate National Cheesecake Day\, indulge yourself with this delightful dessert. You can make a cheesecake yourself\, or pick it at a local bakery if you don’t feel like baking. Going out to your favorite cheesecake place with your family or friends is also a great way to celebrate.

The awareness month also celebrates the successes of the different immunizations that have been created in the 20th century and beyond. \nEvery year\, the National Public Health Information Coalition (NPHIC)\, in collaboration with CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases\, has develops a communication toolkit for use in your communities\, schools and work places and encourages people to become involved\, raise awareness and most important of all\, get immunised. There are 4 key messages of the toolkits that produced annually\, these being: \nVaccines protect against serious diseases. \nThese diseases still exist and outbreaks do occur. \nVaccines are recommended throughout our lives. \nVaccines are very safe. \nThere are many debates around the safety of many of the vaccinations available\, however governments across the world\, acting upon the advice of leading scientists and medical professionals overwhelmingly support immunization schemes. Despite this\, the growing voice of the anti immunization supporters ( and some other factors) has lead to a decrease in the number of people becoming vaccinated and there is little surprise that the number of people affected by diseases that in some cases had been eliminated from some countries is on the rise again. \nFor more information about available immunizations visit one of the official websites.

Mustard is a condiment made from the seeds of a mustard plant. The whole\, bruised\, cracked\, or ground seeds are mixed with liquid (water\, lemon juice\, vinegar\, oil)\, salt and sometimes spices to create a sauce or paste. \nSome interesting facts about mustard! \nMustard was first recorded as being prepared by wealthy Romans\, who mixed wine and mustard seeds and added it to their meals. \nAmerica is the country that uses the most mustard in the world\, with yellow mustard (a mild\, American-style condiment\, often used on hot dogs) being the most commonly used. Because of this\, the rest of the world refers to it as American mustard. \nMustard is healthy: its seeds are full of nutrients and antioxidants. They contain selenium\, omega-3 and 6\, potassium\, magnesium and calcium\, which have anti-inflammatory properties and are also supposed to speed up the metabolism and lower blood pressure. \nBefore people began eating mustard\, it was used for medicinal purposes. French monks were known to use mustard to treat their wounds while Greeks used it to relieve muscles\, cure toothaches and stimulate appetite and digestion. A mustard bath is a traditional therapeutic remedy for tired\, stressed muscles\, colds\, fevers and seizures. The mustard was thought to draw out toxins and warm the muscles\, blood and body. It was a standard medical practice up until the first part of the twentieth century and continues to be used in alternative medicine. \nDid you know there is a National Mustard Museum? Opening in 1986 by founder and mustard collector Barry Levenson. The museum opened to the public in 1992 in Mount Hroeb and consists of 5600 prepared mustards from over 70 countries. The museum became the sponsor of National Mustard Day in 1991 which sees events taking place raising thousands of dollars for a local charity. \nWhat better reason to hold a National Mustard Day event? Why not make some hotdogs\, smother them in your favourite mustard and ask people to contribute to your local charity?

On August 4\, 1790 Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton established the Revenue-Marine to serve as an armed customs enforcement service. In 1894\, it was renamed the Revenue Cutter Service. In 1915\, it merged with the U.S. Life-Saving Service. Thus the United States Coast Guard was formed. \nFor those who dont know\, the Coast Guard is an all important maritime first responder; “the principal Federal agency responsible for maritime safety\, security\, and environmental stewardship in U.S. ports and waterways”. \nThe Coast Guards are one of the five Armed Services of the United States\, and the only military branch within the Department of Homeland Security. In addition to its role as an Armed Service\, the Coast Guard is a first responder and humanitarian service that provides aid to people in distress or impacted by natural and man-made disasters whether at sea or ashore. The Coast Guard is a member of the Intelligence Community\, and is a law enforcement and regulatory agency with broad legal authorities associated with maritime transportation\, hazardous materials shipping\, bridge administration\, oil spill response\, pilotage\, and vessel construction and operation. \nCoast Guard Day is mainly an internal event\, however we feel that such is the importance of the work that is carried out byt he Coast Guard\, more should be done to thank\, honor and celebrate them. It is celebrated primarily by Coast Guardsmen\, both active duty and reserve\, as well as retirees\, civilian employees\, dependants\, and auxiliarists. Coast Guard units across the country organize picnics and sport competitions. So why not show your appreciation for those people involved and the service they provide and support any local events that may take place\, or simply educate others about the work they do?

This event is very important for the history of Titusville\, because since the discovery of crude oil the region became prosperous. \nAlthough used for many different types of product in many different industries\, we need to consider the fact the world will eventually run out of petrol reserves and we therefore need to find kinder alternatives and substitutes. A highly contentious issue\, this is a subject that we should not ignore and continue to learn more about. \nYou could get involved in the day by considering what products you use in your lives that use petroleum and attempting to find kinder alternatives. You could also research more about the effect on the world our petroleum consumption has\, and what is being done in your areas to minimise and risks.

Three-digit emergency telephone numbers originated in the UK in 1937. The emergency telephone number used in the United States was created by the Federal Communications Commission and AT&T in 1968. \nThe combination 9-1-1 was chosen because it was brief\, easy to remember and dial. The first 9-1-1 call was placed on February 16\, 1968 in Haleyville\, Alabama although it wasn’t to report a crime or request emeergency responder help! Alabama Speaker of the House\, Rankin Fite\, made the first call from another city hall room. It was answered by Congressman Tom Bevill on a bright red telephone located in the police department. Also on hand was Haleyville Mayor James Whitt\, Public Service Commission President Eugene (Bull) Connor\, and B. W. Gallagher. \nIn the same year 9-1-1 officially became the national emergency number for the USA. However\, it became widely known only in the 1970s. \nAll 9-1-1 calls are answered by special call centers known as public-safety answering points (PSAPs). Calling this number provides callers access to police\, ambulance\, and firefighting services through trained dispatchers.9-1-1 Emergency Number Day is observed on September 11. This date was selected because the numbers 9-1-1 correspond to September 11 in the month-day date format. Since 2001\, the importance of the Emergency Number Day has declined due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks and subsequent proclamation of Patriot Day as a national observance.

Like most HIV/AIDS-related awareness days\, it is supported by AIDS.gov\, an internet portal for all federal domestic HIV and AIDS resources and information.\nAccording to the information provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\, people aged 55 and older accounted for 26% of the 1.2 million people living with HIV (diagnosed or undiagnosed) in the U.S. in 2013. Older patients are often diagnosed late in the course of infection\, which leads to shorter HIV-to-AIDS intervals. In 2014\, about 40% of people aged 55 and older were diagnosed with AIDS at the time of HIV diagnosis. \nIn addition\, thanks to the huge advancement in medical science\, more and more people are living longer than ever before therefore there is an increased need to understand the impact of the aging process upon those living with HIV/Aids. \nThere are several reasons for late diagnosis of HIV/AIDS in older people. Medical institutions are less focused on testing older people\, while people aged 55 and older think that they are not exposed to the risk of infections or confuse the early symptoms of HIV with the signs of aging. \nNational HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day was launched to raise public awareness of the challenges that older Americans diagnosed with HIV have to face\, as well as of the importance of HIV prevention\, testing\, care\, and treatment among people aged 55 and older. \nShow your support for this campaign.

National Punctuation Day was created by Jeff Rubin in 2004 to emphasize the vital role of punctuation marks in written English. In the English language\, the simple differences in punctuation can produce the sharp differences in meaning\, that is why correct punctuation is so important. \nThere are two major styles of punctuation in the English language: British (logical punctuation) and American (traditional punctuation). They differ primarily in the way they handle quotation marks. The rest of the basic punctuation rules are essentially the same in all varieties of English. Sadly these rules are often ignored\, which may lead to misunderstanding. Punctuation is as important as any other aspect of the written language. That is why Rubin founded National Punctuation Day.National Punctuation Day is marked with special lessons at schools\, contests\, fundraisers\, and other appropriate events and activities. \nIn 2006\, Jeff Rubin and his wife\, Norma\, launched Punctuation Playtime. It is a program for elementary school students that focuses on reinforcing important punctuation lessons.
