2 In This ISSUE The First Day of Summer Flag Day Summer Traveling Safety Tips Thank You s, Quotes to inspire Summer Begins The June solstice your signal to celebrate summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere happens on June 21, 2018 at 10:07 UTC. That s 6:97 a.m. EDT in North America on June 21. For us in the Northern Hemisphere, this solstice marks the longest day of the year. Early dawns. Long days. Late sunsets. Short nights. The sun at its height each day, as it crosses the sky. Meanwhile, south of the equator, winter begins. What is a solstice? Ancient cultures knew that the sun s path across the sky, the length of daylight, and the location of the sunrise and sunset all shifted in a regular way throughout the year. They built monuments, such as Stonehenge, to follow the sun s yearly progress. Today, we know that the solstice is an astronomical event, caused by Earth s tilt on its axis and its motion in orbit around the sun. Because Earth doesn t orbit upright. Instead, our world is tilted on its axis by 23-and-a-half degrees, Earth s Northern and Southern Hemispheres trade places in receiving the sun s light and warmth most directly. At the June solstice, Earth is positioned in its orbit so that our world s North Pole is leaning most toward the sun. As seen from Earth, the sun is directly overhead at noon 23 1/2 degrees north of the equator, at an imaginary line encircling the globe known as the Tropic latitude, of Cancer the sun appears named overhead after at noon the constellation. the June solstice. This is as far north as the sun ever gets. The red line shows the Tropic of Cancer. As seen from this line of All locations north of the equator have days longer than 12 hours at the June solstice. Meanwhile, all locations south of the equator have days shorter than 12 hours. Is the solstice the first day of summer? No world body has designated an official day to start each new season. Yet June s Solstice is perhaps the most widely recognized day upon which summer begins in the Northern Hemisphere and upon which winter begins on the southern half of Earth s globe. There s nothing official about it, but it s such a long-held tradition that we all recognize it to be so. June Cool Blogs, Sites & Online Resources to Check Out!

3 June Quotes A father is someone who carries pictures in his wallet where his money used to be. ~ unknown A father is someone you look up to no matter how tall you grow. ~ unknown June 14 th is Flag Day The Fourth of July was traditionally celebrated as America s birthday, but the idea of an annual day specifically celebrating the Flag is believed to have first originated in BJ Cigrand, a schoolteacher, arranged for the pupils in the Fredonia, Wisconsin Public School, District 6, to observe June 14 (the 108th anniversary of the official adoption of The Stars and Stripes) as Flag Birthday. In numerous magazines and newspaper articles and public addresses over the following years, Cigrand continued to enthusiastically advocate the observance of June 14 as Flag Birthday or Flag Day. Flag Day Etiquette On June 14 th, you ll see a great number of American Flags displayed on homes throughout the country. It s especially important now and should always be. The flag is properly displayed with the stars on the top, except when it is hung upside down as a distress signal. The flag should never touch anything beneath it. Saying the Pledge If you are at an event where the flag is not displayed but the national anthem is played, all present should face toward the music. When the flag is displayed, all present should face the flag and salute, private citizens with their right hand on their hearts and military people with the conventional salute. Peanuts Are a Smart Choice For a time, it was considered wise to avoid peanuts because of their fat content. Times have changed. Health conscious people now know that peanuts hold no damaging cholesterol. Their high protein content makes them a good choice for most people, particularly for vegetarians. Technically, peanuts belong to the legume family, as do peas and green beans, but some people wonder whether peanuts should be in a food group of their own. In addition to protein, they contain vitamin E, niacin, riboflavin, and important minerals. A study published in the International Journal of Obesity shows that eating peanuts is a valuable way to control hunger without weight gain.
4 Safe Ideas That Could Save You From a Crash It s about that time. A road trip to a cottage, beach or Grandma s house is probably in the works. For a safer trip, consider these new and old ideas about how to get there in one piece. Just drive. Don t talk or listen to someone on your cellphone. Using a cellphone reduces your ability to see while talking, and while hanging up. Just listening on a cellphone can cause a decrease of up to 37% in the ability to process visual information on the road. Make sure everyone is buckled up. Not only is it safer for them, but in an emergency stop, an unbuckled backseat passenger could fly into you and cause you to lose control of the car. Know your route so you don t have to find a road and drive at the same time. Navigation systems are helpful if they don't take your mind off of driving. Yes, give em a brake. Go slow in construction zones. National Highway Transportation Administration (NHTSA) says more than 1,000 people die in construction zones each year. Take a pal along on a long drive. Most fall-asleep crashes happen when people are driving alone, usually in the dark. Be well-rested before starting and take breaks every couple of hours. Keep the kids entertained. Provide toys and games so their noise will not distract you from your driving. Avoid following a truck or SUV if you can. Your risk of a rear-end collision rises because you can t see around them and adjust your speed to conditions. Thank You! Thanks to YOU the word is spreading!
