Where Can You Find Half the
United States? On Facebook!
Name:
Is everyone in the country on Facebook yet? A report
by e-Marketer says that in 2011, the social network
will have 132.5 million U.S. users. That’s more than
half the number of Internet users overall in the U.S.,
and about five times higher than the number of
subscribers to Twitter. By 2013, e-Marketer predicts,
62 percent of all domestic Web users will have a
Facebook profile—47.6 percent of the U.S. population.
After that point, Facebook’s growth will probably
peak domestically, although expansion is likely to
continue around the globe.

In the 19th century, engineers
doubted they’d ever be able to
build a bridge across the
Niagara Falls. The problem:
They couldn’t see any way to
get a line from one side of the great gorge to the other
so that they could begin the project. No boat could cross
the river without being pulled over the powerful falls.
The other common method, shooting a line from one
shore to the other with a bow and arrow, was
impossible because the gap was too wide.
He sponsored a kite-flying contest. The prize was $5 to
whoever could maneuver a kite across the gorge and
lower it to a height where someone on the other side
could grab the string and use it to secure a line that
joined the two sides. With that line in place, he could
begin building the bridge.
The kite flew across a string, which they then
used to cross materials to build a temporary bridge on.
“Getting to the top is optional.
Getting down is mandatory.”
A La Cart Dinner Dish must be purchased for this special to be valid.

The first Father’s Day was observed in 1910. It was
the inspiration of Sonora Dodd, who hit on the idea
while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon the
previous year. Her own mother had died in
childbirth when Sonora was 16. She helped her
father, William Smart — a Civil War veteran who had
moved his family to a farm in Washington State — to
raise the newborn, along with her four other
brothers. Sonora had long held her father in high
esteem, but it was not until she was an adult with her
own family that she realized the hardships and
sacrifices he had made as a single parent. Sonora
approached the Spokane Ministerial Alliance with
the idea of creating a day to honor fathers. She
suggested that the observance take place on June 5th,
her father’s birthday, but the alliance chose to make
it the third Sunday in June.
Today, Father’s Day has become a day not
only to honor fathers but also all men who serve as
father figures, such as stepfathers, uncles,
grandfathers, and male friends of the family.
“Go confidently in the direction of your
dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”
