The more of us who fill out the census, the more money we get for NYC’s schools, roads, bridges, health care, housing, and more. Complete it in less than 10 minutes at https://my2020census.gov/. #GetCountedNYC An 1890 copy of Scientific American illustrates how counting the 11th census was accomplished in less time with the Punched Card Tabulator system invented by Herman Hollerith, a former census employee from Buffalo, New York. Divided into four devices for perforating, reading, and sorting, workers completed 62.9 million returns of 30 questions in less than five years.

Alla soglia di un anno decisivo, vi do questo consiglio: pensate in Svizzera e agite in Svizzera. Pensare in Svizzera significa: rimanere fedeli a ciò che siamo, alla libertà secolare della nostra Svizzera unica e variegata. Agire in Svizzera significa: servire il proprio paese, rispettare i connazionali e lo straniero nelle sue convinzioni.

O papel fundamental das mulheres na Segunda Guerra Mundial - Além do trabalho na fábrica e outros empregos domésticos, aproximadamente 350.000 mulheres ingressaram nas Forças Armadas, servindo no país e no exterior. A pedido da primeira-dama Eleanor Roosevelt e de grupos de mulheres, e impressionado com o uso britânico de mulheres no serviço, o general George Marshall apoiou a ideia de introduzir um ramo de serviço feminino no Exército. Em maio de 1942, o Congresso instituiu o Corpo de Mulheres do Exército Auxiliar, posteriormente atualizado para o Corpo de Exército Feminino, que tinha status militar completo. Seus membros, conhecidos como WACs, trabalharam em mais de 200 empregos de não combatentes nos Estados Unidos e em todos os teatros da guerra. - @piflightteorias on Instagram

COSME E DAMIÃO, DOCES, IBEJADA E CARURU: tradição e sincretismo religioso. Nos dias 26 (para os católicos) e 27 de setembro (para candomblecistas e umbandistas), comemoram-se, respectivamente, o Dia de Cosme e Damião e o Dia dos Ibejis. Na tradição católica, a data celebra os santos Cosme e Damião, gêmeos que nasceram e morreram na Ásia Menor por volta do ano 300 d.C. Os irmãos usavam a fé, unida aos conhecimentos científicos, como poder de cura. Como forma de caridade e amor, realizavam tratamentos sem cobrar nada. Às crianças doentes davam balas para amenizar seu sofrimento. Foram perseguidos e degolados, por ordem do imperador romano Deocleciano, que não aceitava a fé cristã. Os santos são reconhecidos pela Igreja Católica como padroeiros dos gêmeos, dos médicos e dos farmacêuticos. No candomblé, os gêmeos são sincretizados com os orixás crianças “Ibejis”, filhos gêmeos (masculino e feminino) dos orixás Xangô e Iansã. São considerados protetores das crianças. Na umbanda, as festividades são marcadas pela participação de espíritos encantados de crianças que amam doces e travessuras. Em todas as tradições, tem-se a distribuição de doces e brinquedos como forma de homenagear ou cumprir promessas feitas às divindades por parte de devotos e simpatizantes. Somado a isso, o povo de santo tem o costume de fazer caruru (uma comida típica da tradição afro-brasileira), chamado também de “Caruru dos Santos” e “Caruru dos sete meninos”. Como toda comida de santo, o caruru tem o intuito de partilhar, com fartura e por meio da fé, a prosperidade, saúde e bonança entre os presentes. Todos os anos, por toda a cidade — mas principalmente no subúrbio carioca —, vemos a criançada nas ruas à espera dos tradicionais saquinhos de doces. Dia de alegria e diversão. Que a tradição nunca acabe e que a intolerância religiosa nunca vença! Oni, Ibejada! Salve, Cosme e Damião! _________________ Conta pra gente as suas memórias dessa festa popular tão carioca!
