National Margarita Day: What’s your flavor? It’s been a little while since most people opened their eyes to the most hated day of the week i.e. Monday, but to sweeten the otherwise bothersome day the nation is celebrating National Margarita Day!
Most people will have issues getting plastered today and for them I have two things to say: Non-alcoholic might not taste so bad, give it a try, and for those who hated my first suggestion: this day will come only once, do what you wnat with it.
The irony is that apparently it isn’t just Margarita Day today, the country can also benefit from binging on sweet potatoes as it is also the National Cook a sweet potato day, and of course some cheery pie wouldn’t hurt either since it’s the national cherry pie day as well. That makes for an interesting platter of food…
People are doing all things Margarita today, even taking quiz’s on facebook which tell them what flavor of Margarita they are. Well whether you like peach, pineapple, mango, strawberry etc ignore your age old favorite and try something new today. (And go easy on the sweet potatoes and cherry pie while you’re doing this. )
for those of you who don’t want to go out, you can make your own at home, here’s how:
Newark Airport Lockdown: An incident at Newark Airport is causing traffic hiccups throughout the US. All flights out of Newark have been canceled because of a security breach. For those not familiar with the airport, it is one of the main airports servicing the New York City area. The airport is located in New Jersey.
What happened to cause the lockdown? A man walked out the wrong side of a security checkpoint in terminal C. Passengers are not being allowed in to or out of Terminal C and it’s been said that everyone in that area will need to be screened.
Expect delays across the country, as Newark is one of the busiest airports servicing 30 million passengers per year.
The security breach took place just one day after increased security measures started after a thwarted Christmas Day terrorist attack.
Tropical Storm Ida formed today. Tropical Storm Ida formed in the Caribbean. Could Tropical Storm Ida become Hurricane Ida? Only time will tell.
According to the Associated Press, Tropical Storm Ida is causing Hurricane Watches to pop up around Nicaragua. Tropical Storm Ida is up to 65 mph winds, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Tropical Storm Ida could bring major flooding and major landslides wherever she makes landfall. Nicaraguan officials are already taking precautions and making shelters.
Tropical Storm Ida will likely cause evacuations in the coastal city of Bluefields and the towns of Laguna de Perlas, Cruz de Rio Grando and Kukra Hills.
Tropical Storms need to be watched quickly. As a tropical storm makes its way across warm water, the storm will strengthen. As a tropical storm strengthens, it could turn in to a full-blown hurricane.
Whether or not Tropical Storm Ida will turn in to Hurricane Ida has yet to be seen. We can only cross our fingers and hope for the best. However, those that live in the path of the storm should evacuate if encouraged by local authorites. As mentioned before, Tropical Storm Ida will bring forth a lot of flooding and potential landslides.

According to AP, a Russian archaeologist is claiming that he has found the lost capital of the Khazars. Khazars was a powerful nation that adopted Judaism, very few ones, as its official religion more than 1,000 years ago. However due to rise of other slav kings in that region, the nation disintegrated leaving little trace of its culture.
Dmitry Vasilyev, a professor at Astrakhan State University, said his nine-year excavation near the Caspian Sea has finally unearthed the foundations of a triangular fortress of flamed brick, along with modest yurt-shaped dwellings, and he believes these are part of what was once Itil, the Khazar capital.
