***** Texas Shout Outs *****

@Gileadavia - Happy Belated Birthday ... Did you know September 9th is the most common birthday in Texas? Virgos Unite!

Thanks Big Tex and everyone else who wished me a Happy Birthday and nope I didn't know that. Maybe Texas should have a Texans' Birthday list?

61 minutes ago: The Elite Gunslinger Empire of Gileadavia arrived from Osiris.
7 hours ago: The Elite Gunslinger Empire of Gileadavia ceased to exist.

Oops! I don't know what happened. Maybe this is what happens cause I've got Gileadavia and Gilleadavia and I didn't realize I haven't logged into Gileadavia long enough to Ceased To Exist. :(

But I'm back! :)

National Coloring Day

Do you see the world through rose-colored glasses? If so, National Coloring Day, an annual event every September 14, is right for you! Following behind National Coloring Book Day in August, National Coloring Day expands the experience into lots of artsy mediums. As a stress-reducer, coloring isn’t just for kids anymore.

Whether it’s been decades or merely days, National Coloring Day is all about setting aside some time for ourselves to, well, color. Get creative with paper and crayons, colored pencils or markers. Try oil pastels and paint. On National Coloring Day, let your imagination fly into a colorful world and brighten up your day!

NATIONAL COLORING DAY ACTIVITIES
Color!
Whether you like crayons, colored pencils, pens or permanent markers, there are art supplies somewhere with your name on them! Grab your favorite materials and sit down with some paper or a coloring book. If you don't have one, go online to download and print out free coloring pages at home.

Have a coloring party
People love parties and you can share the joys of coloring with all your friends on National Coloring Day. Buy some colored pencils, a coloring book with perforated pages and spread them out on any flat surface. Share the colored pencils and socialize while you work!

Donate some art supplies
It's unfortunate that over the past decade, schools are experiencing reduced budgets for their fine arts programs. On National Coloring Day, make a difference by donating coloring supplies to your local school arts program. Many libraries also offer after-school activities and, thanks to your generous donation, coloring might just become one of the children's favorite activities.

WHY WE LOVE NATIONAL COLORING DAY
Coloring promotes wellness
It might seem like adult coloring suddenly became popular out of nowhere. But it's widely-known that coloring is a profoundly beneficial hobby. The activity of coloring is both creative and repetitive, allowing your mind to get absorbed in what you're doing and let some of those high-level cognitive functions take a break. Coloring is also wordless, which lets your linguistic processes take a breather, too.

Coloring is fun
All those health benefits aside, coloring is really enjoyable unto itself. As you relax and start coloring, you can practically feel your creativity flowing faster. All your daily, intrusive thoughts start to lighten up. Coloring provides a wonderful get-away experience.

It takes you beyond coloring books
National Coloring Day doesn't exclude coloring books. Instead, this holiday calls on us to get extra creative by trying new mediums and to color outside those lines. Go one further — apply this idea to other parts of your life!

Get Ready Day

Prepare yourself — because September 15 is Get Ready Day. Established in 2006 by the American Public Health Association (APHA), the goal of Get Ready Day is to arm individuals, families, and communities with knowledge that will help them cope with crises such as natural disasters, infectious diseases and pandemic illnesses. To stay prepared, attend a Get Ready Day event in your area and get yourself — and your loved ones — ready to survive any emergency situation that may come your way. You could save a life, maybe even your own!

GET READY DAY TIMELINE

HOW TO OBSERVE GET READY DAY
Get involved
Coordinate an after-school fair involving people of all ages. Want to spread the message to the senior citizens in your community? Schedule a preparedness talk at your local senior center.

Prepare
Get Ready Day is a great reminder to stock up on the supplies that will prepare you to cope with a crisis. Snag good deals by shopping online for whatever you think you'll need to get through the challenge. Canned foods and other food items with a long shelf life, batteries, flashlights and face masks are just a few ideas.

Spread APHA's message
You can help APHA get survival tips and tricks out to your community by setting up a table at your local supermarket and handing out preparedness fliers. Post materials at local churches and coffee shops. Ask the church secretary to include Get Ready Day information in the weekly church bulletin.

With online toolkits, social media resources and local events, Get Ready Day’s information is easy to access, so make sure you take advantage, read up and follow through.

It encourages us to keep our cool
Dangerous, unexpected situations are nerve-wracking, stressful and unsettling, but thanks to Get Ready Day, we can stay a little calmer. Because of all the helpful information that circulates on Get Ready Day, we can chill out knowing we have the supplies and knowledge to better handle emergencies.

It puts health and safety at the top of our list
Get Ready Day is all about making sure we know how to best respond to any emergency situation. Not only does this help us feel equipped to deal with unsafe circumstances, but it also confirms that APHA cares about our survival.

National Online Learning Day

National Online Learning Day on September 15 celebrates the huge array of learning resources that are available to students online. The internet has revolutionized the learning process and students are thriving in the flexible environment that it offers them. This is a day for raising awareness of all of the resources and courses that are available online and to get people, young or old, investing time in their own education. The internet has a seemingly infinite pool of learning resources so it’s a good time to dwell on what you’d like to learn and take a look to see what courses are available to you.

HISTORY OF NATIONAL ONLINE LEARNING DAY
The internet began to swell in popularity in the 1990s and with it we started to see the development of online learning. The first online high school, CompuHigh, was established in 1994. CompuHigh offered year-round enrollment with self-paced studies and was mainly focussed on U.S. students and accreditations.

As the quality of internet connection improved, so did the online learning tools that were available with webcams and multimedia resources being utilized more often. Between 2002 and 2005, the number of K-12 students enrolled in online distance learning of some sort increased by 65%. The birth of the virtual classroom provided qualified teachers with the opportunity to communicate with and give instructions or feedback to students in an interactive environment. Virtual classrooms have become increasingly sophisticated and are now able to provide learning environments that replicate those of the traditional physical classroom.

The increased flexibility and ease of communication has meant that online learning courses have increased in popularity year on year throughout the 21st century. By 2015 there were an estimated 6 million students participating in at least one online learning course. National Online Learning Day was established in 2016 and has been observed on September 15 every year since.

NATIONAL ONLINE LEARNING DAY TIMELINE
2020
A Global Pandemic
The global COVID-19 pandemic led to school closures throughout the world. This meant that more students than ever were actively learning online.

2016
The First Celebration
The first National Online Learning Day is celebrated. The day has been observed on September 15 every year since.

1994
CompuHigh
CompuHigh, the world’s first online high school, is established.

1969
Getting Connected
Arpanet, a network that many see as our first steps towards the internet as we know it, is connected to computers at Stanford and UCLA.
