In colonial Virginia, residents were free to celebrate Christmas in December. New Year’s Day was observed in March. In 1582 Pope Gregory decreed January 1 as New Years Day, but the new calendar wasn’t accepted by the British Empire (which included the American colonies) until 1752. So Christmas in Virginia was a stand-alone holiday, though it lasted for twelve days, from December 25 through January 6. New Year’s Day came two months later.

COMMENTARY
Obama gives Interpol Free Hand in U.S.
Washington Examiner [DC], by Editorial, 30 December 2009
No presidential statement or White House press briefing was held on it. In fact, all that can be found about it on the official White House Web site is the Dec. 17 announcement and one-paragraph text of President Obama's Executive Order 12425, with this innocuous headline: "Amending Executive Order 12425 Designating Interpol as a public international organization entitled to enjoy certain privileges, exemptions, and immunities."In fact, this new directive from Obama may be the most destructive blow ever struck against American constitutional civil liberties.

Watch out for Haitian Disaster Relief Scams
On the heals of the disastrous earthquake in Haiti, the scam artists will be out in force trying to get your money. One of the best ways to give to valid, honest, efficient and experienced disaster relief efforts is to give through your church's local or national disaster relief organization.
Why give money to charities that that you don't know who contact you and solicit funds unless you spend time to check them out. Even then, your contributions may not go where you intend. Even the American Red Cross, for instance, has been known to divert disaster relief contributions to programs other than to which the giver intended the gift to go.
Two of the best organizations with long histories of direct action disaster relief is the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Disaster Response and the Lutheran World Relief. Lutheran World Relief was already active in Haiti working on drinking water projects before the earthquake struck. Its offices and staff survived the damage and already providing direct assistance.
You can give to these organizations locally by sending cash contributions to Living Water Lutheran Church, PO Box 818, Kilmarnock VA 22482, or stopping by the church at 83 Bluff Point Road, or sending contributions directly to these disaster relief organizations via their websites. One hundred percent of your donation will go directly to Haitian relief efforts.
