IMAGINE: HOW COOL WOULD BE CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS IN USA?

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as
a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.
It is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States and on the second Monday of October in Canada.

Thanksgiving has its historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, and has long been celebrated in a secular manner as well.

Happy Halloween!

We had a Halloween Pumpkin competition and here are the awesome pictures people sent:

THANK YOU ALL FOR GREAT PICTURES AND HAVE FUN ON HALLOWEEN!

True gentleman

Well at least I think that he is a gentleman :)

President Barack Obama interrupts a speech on healthcare to catch a woman, standing directly behind him, who almost fainted. Footage shows Karmel Allison, who is pregnant, starting to lean backwards a couple of times during Monday's Rose Garden press conference before Obama reaches out to help her. 'I got you,' he tells the woman before she is helped away.

Take a picture of the pumpkin, which is the neatest for YOU and send it to us. The best pumpkin picture will receive a price! Jury will make the decision on 31th of October-on HALLOWEEN! All pictures are welcome! Send a picture to: educationusa@ut.ee

Sweet picture

Good to read the news, if there is something positive :)
