Today’s Holiday:
Liberia Armed Forces Day

On this day, Liberians honor the soldiers of the country’s armed forces. Festivities often include regiment parades and a public address from the Liberian president or the commander-in-chief. The holiday has evoked mixed memories for Liberians, as the army has been linked with the chaos that plagued the country at the end of the 20th century. In 2007, however, the defense ministry introduced a newly restructured contingent, which paraded through the main streets of the capital city, Monrovia, before hundreds of attendees.

This Day in History:
Anthracite Coal First Burned as Residential Heating Fuel (1808)

Anthracite is a compact variety of coal that was first burned as a residential heating fuel in the US by Judge Jesse Fell in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. It differs from wood in that it needs a draft from below. By burning it on an open grate in a fireplace, Fell proved that it could be a viable heating fuel. Fell’s experiment took place 18 years after anthracite coal was said to have been discovered in Pennsylvania by hunter Necho Allen. According to legend, how did Allen “discover” anthracite?

Seems like everyone else has a love just for them
I don’t mind, we have such a good time, my best friend
But sometimes, well, I wish we could be more than friends
Tell me do you know?
Tell me do you know?

I get so breathless when you call my name
I’ve often wondered, do you feel the same?
There’s a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity
When we’re all alone
So don’t tell me
You can’t see
What I’m thinking of

I can understand that you don’t want to cross the line
And you know I can’t promise you things will turn out fine
But I have to be honest, I want you to be mine
Tell me do you know?
Tell me do you know?

I get so breathless, when you call my name
I’ve often wondered, do you feel the same?
There’s a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity
When we’re all alone
So don’t tell me
You can’t see

Oh…

Cause I’ve tried to do this right in your own time
I’ve been telling you with my eyes, my heart’s on fire
Why don’t you realize?
Tell me do you know?
Tell me do you know?
I get so breathless…

I get so breathless when you call my name
(When you call, my name)
I’ve often wondered do you feel the same
There’s a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity
When we’re all alone
So don’t tell me
(Oh don’t you tell me)
You can’t see
What I’m thinking of!

I get so breathless when you call my name
(Oh, when you call, my name)
I’ve often wondered, do you feel the same?
There’s a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity
When we’re all alone
So don’t tell me
(Don’t you tell me, don’t you tell me)
You can’t see
What I’m thinking of

Feast of St. Paul’s Shipwreck

This feast is a commemoration in Malta of the shipwreck of St. Paul on the island in 60 CE, an event told about in the New Testament. When storms drove the ship aground, Paul was welcomed by the “barbarous people” (meaning they were not Greco-Romans). According to legend, he got their attention when a snake bit him on the hand but did him no harm, and he then healed people of diseases. Paul is the patron saint of Malta and snakebite victims. The day is a public holiday, and is observed with family gatherings and religious ceremonies and processions. More…: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tfd.mobile.TfdSearch
