Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
You discover Sri Lanka's unique leopards, Asian elephants, and colorful Sri Lankan junglefowl throughout the island's forests and parks. You observe that Sri Lankan families typically keep chickens, water buffalo, and domestic dogs as their most common household animals. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You honor Cameroon's Nescafé production and Cameroon cocoa, which supplies some of the world's finest chocolate makers with premium beans from the country's volcanic soils. You understand that Cameroon cocoa carries cultural pride as one of Africa's top producers, deeply woven into both local livelihoods and global luxury chocolate craftsmanship.
In Wisconsin, this is practically a religious observance. The state produces 3.4 billion pounds of cheese per year. Wisconsin has a Master Cheesemaker program that takes 13 years to complete, which is longer than medical school. In Green Bay, fans wear foam cheese hats to Packers games without irony. A cheesehead is not an insult in Wisconsin. It is a crown.
