NYC Parks Department recreation staff created “Everything Day” after hearing that members of the Sorrentino Center’s Afterschool program, most of whom were affected by Hurricane Sandy, weren’t able to go trick-or-treating for Halloween, in many cases spent Thanksgiving away from home, and in some won’t have their normal Christmas or Hanukkah celebration. During this event, these children will have the opportunity to celebrate all these missed holidays, at once.

There is a perception that with the rise of social media, mobile devices, and other digital trends, young people have put TV on mute.

According to Nielsen, young people are watching less TV. The 18-24 group watched a weekly average of 22 hours and 32 minutes of traditional TV, which is about 1 hour and 45 minutes less than in 2011. That’s about 15 minutes less a day. The difference in monthly viewing time for this group is about 1 and a half hours, or 13 minutes a day.

December solstice is when the sun reaches its most southerly declination of -23.5 degrees, when the North Pole is tilted 23.5 degrees away from the sun. Depending on the Gregorian calendar, the December solstice occurs annually on a day between December 20 and December 23.
