Time's Up Day is a day when people tell themselves that time is up when it comes to deciding if they should make up with someone who they've had a falling out with. Tomorrow someone may be gone and it will be too late. Time's up! The time for repairing relationships is today! Time is fleeting. It is uncertain if you or a person you want to make up with will be here tomorrow. Tell yourself that time is up and reach out to the person today. Visit them at their home, call them on the phone, send them an email, or write them a letter.

During the Middle Ages, Europeans who could afford it employed seamstresses and tailors. Sewing for the most part was a woman's occupation, and most sewing before the 19th century was practical. Clothing was an expensive investment for most people, and women had an important role in extending the longevity of items of clothing. Sewing was used for mending. Clothing that was faded would be turned inside-out so that it could continue to be worn, and sometimes had to be taken apart and reassembled in order to suit this purpose. Once clothing became worn or torn, it would be taken apart and the reusable cloth sewn together into new items of clothing, made into quilts, or otherwise put to practical use. The many steps involved in making clothing from scratch (weaving, pattern making, cutting, alterations, and so forth) meant that women often bartered their expertise in a particular skill with one another.

By incorporating this S.T.O.P. exercise into your life you can develop better awareness of your particular stress reactions and this awareness, in and of itself, creates distance from these reactions.
In turn, this distance creates the space to better regulate your response to whatever is happening in your life. That is, when you become aware, you can live more consciously and better adapt to your environment and whatever it is you are experiencing in life.  What is great about this S.T.O.P. exercise is that it is literally a one-minute exercise, and we can all find one minute.  If you are saying to yourself: "No, I don't even have one minute." I invite you to really explore that belief.

The day should be celebrated using a "just because" mindset. You should be doing things just because. Don't do random things because it is Just Because Day, do them just because! Look for other holidays and celebrate them just because. Sing in your car or in the shower. Run and skip, go to a new restaurant, buy something randomly, go fishing, get your haircut, drive to a place you've never been, hike in a forest, spend the day reading a book.

First becoming mainstream in the early 1930s, radio dominated American culture from the ’30s through the early’60s, before being eclipsed by television. From New York mayor Fiorello La Guardia reading the Sunday “funnies” (comics) on air, to ground-breaking genre shows including The Shadow, Suspense, Fibber McGee and Molly, Amos and Andy, Gunsmoke, The Lone Ranger, and the like, families across the nation gathered in front of old vacuum-tube radio sets every evening for decades. Radio was the proving ground for modern mass media and comedy, with Edward Murrow reporting from wartime London and Jack Benny and Fred Allen, among others, creating new comedy styles that would soon migrate to the small screen.

Of the ten percent of people who are left-handed, more are men than women. Many recent presidents have also been left-handed, including Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. Those who are left-handed haven't always risen to such heights of power. Throughout history, left-handed people were considered inferior and were often associated with witchcraft. In Christianity, left is associated with evil, and at the last Judgement, those who are sent to the left are damned. Even a left-handed compliment has a negative connotation, as it is an unflattering compliment.

Progressive rock is a radio station programming format that emerged in the late 1960s, in which disc jockeys are given wide latitude in what they may play, similar to the free-form format but with the proviso that some kind of rock music is almost always played. It enjoyed the height of its popularity in the late 1960s and 1970s. The name for the format began being used circa 1968, when serious disc jockeys were playing "progressive 'music for the head'" and discussing social issues in between records. During the late 1960s, as long playing records began to supplant the single in popularity with rock audiences, progressive rock stations placed more emphasis on album tracks than their AM counterparts.
