Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for buses, taxis, rideshare cars, delivery vans, trucks, bicycles, scooters, and everyone trusting strangers on the road.
National holiday. Commemorating October 3, 1990, when East and West Germany reunified. Every year a different Bundesland hosts the official celebration. The Buergertest in front of the Brandenburg Gate is televised. The speech is given. The flag is flown. The day is less raucous than July 4 in America. The day is more reflective. The Mauerfall happened on November 9, but that date was too close to Kristallnacht. October 3 was chosen instead. The symbolism is careful.
You discover Syria's native Syrian brown bears, striped hyenas, and Arabian oryx across its diverse terrain. You see that Syrian households typically keep sheep, goats, and chickens as both working animals and pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
