TELEVISION; Muppets and Celebrities Help Sesame Street Fill a Vocabulary Gap
WHATS the word on the street? For Gary Knell, a Mount Kisco resident, it is literacy, followed by vocabulary -- the early childhood variety, of course.

Is there a website where I can find out if its a special day? Like National Alpaca Day or Vegetarian Day?
I home school my 4 little ones and we are always interested in whether or not a day is "special". We try to do art and crafts or lessons geared towards that day. National Talk Like a Pirate Day was a lot of fun. And today is National Alpaca Day. And Wednesday is World Vegetarian Day. Thanks in advance.
Answer: Hi! I homeschool as well. I recommend the Teacher's Calendar, which you can get at your local book store. They publish one for each year, but even if you have an older issue it can be used (the date might just fall on a different day of the week, or if it is a holiday celebrated on the "first Tuesday of May", it might be a different date each year).
There are websites, though. Here are a couple:
http://www.holidays.net/dailys.htm
http://www.EarthCalendar.com
You might also like http://www.scopesys.com/today/ which tells you what significant events have happened on this day in history.
I hope these help!

How well did the men eat on PIRATE ships?
Ive been thinking about pirates more than usual lately, since Sept. 19 was "Talk Like a Pirate Day" (Im not kidding! LOL) and since all the party stores already have their Halloween costumes out, and pirates are among the most popular, as usual.
Anyhoo, I got to wondering: how well did the captain and crew on pirate ships eat? And what did they actually eat? Somehow I guess none of this ever occurred to me. Did they usually have a "cook" who prepared the meals, or did everyone kind of do his own thing? Or perhaps it varied widely, depending on the standards of the captain and/or the number of his crew?
Answer: Pirate ships had cooks. Much of the time food was awful because they didn't have refrigeration. Hard tack is biscuits that are REALLY hard and often had maggots in them. They had salted meat (not always in good condition) and since water was sometimes polluted, they drank a lot of rum or other alcohol. They seldom ate fresh food or vegetables.
