The Festivus Pole: The Costanzas' tradition begins with an aluminum pole, which Frank praises for its "very high strength-to-weight ratio." During Festivus, the unadorned Festivus Pole is displayed. The pole was chosen apparently in opposition to the commercialization of highly decorated Christmas trees, because it is "very low-maintenance," and also because the holiday's patron, Frank Costanza, "find[s] tinsel distracting."
The Airing of Grievances: At the beginning of the Festivus dinner, each participant tells friends and family of all the instances where they disappointed him or her that year. As quoted from Frank Costanza: "I've got a lot of problems with you people, and now you're going to hear about it!"
Festivus dinner: In "The Strike," a celebratory dinner is shown on the evening of Festivus prior to the Feats of Strength. The on-air meal appeared to be meat loaf or spaghetti in a red sauce. In Festivus: The Holiday for the Rest of Us by Allen Salkin, drinking is encouraged with hearty beer, rum, bourbon, or wine. In the episode, no alcohol was served, but George Costanza's boss, Mr. Kruger, drank from a flask.
The Feats of Strength: After the dinner, the head of the family tests his or her strength against one participant of the head's choosing. Festivus is not considered over until the head of the family has been pinned to the ground. A participant is allowed to decline to attempt to pin the head of the family only if they have something better to do instead.

Jemima Marcelle Khan (born 30 January 1974) is an English socialite. She is a daughter of Lady Annabel Goldsmith and one of the eight children who inherited the wealth of her late father, billionaire James Goldsmith. Khan is best known as a former girlfriend of Hugh Grant and as the ex-wife of Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan, with whom she had two sons in the 1990s.
Family and education
Born in London's Westminster Hospital as Jemima Marcelle Goldsmith, Jemima Khan is the eldest child of Lady Annabel Vane-Tempest-Stewart and Anglo-French financier James Goldsmith. Her parents started a polyamorous relationship in 1964 while they were married to different partners, but in 1978, the two married for the sole purpose of legitimizing their children.[1] Besides her two younger brothers, Zac, husband of Sheherazade Goldsmith, and Ben, Jemima Khan has five paternal and three maternal half-siblings, including Robin and India Jane Birley.[2] She has two sons, Sulaiman Isa and Kasim, and because she wants to have the same last name as her children, she currently goes by Jemima Khan.[3]
Jemima Khan grew up at Ormeley Lodge while attending the Old Vicarage preparatory school and Francis Holland School. Between the ages of ten and seventeen, she was an accomplished equestrian in London.[1] Khan enrolled at the University of Bristol in 1993 and dropped out to get married in 1995, but eventually submitted her dissertation in March 2002 for a 2:1 bachelor's degree in English.[4] She later completed an MA in Middle Eastern Studies at SOAS, University of London, majoring in Modern Trends in Islam.[5]
Jemima Khan is known to be shy,[6][7] with her ex-husband describing her as "very shy".[8] She is modest, stylish, and levelheaded.[9][10] She calls herself a "lifelong coward"[11] who has a "a chronic inability to make up my mind".[12] On 29 December 2000, Khan and her family were part of a British Airways jet to Kenya that was temporarily knocked off course and dived 17,000 feet below, after a passenger tried to seize controls in the cockpit.[13] Her mother later said, "Jemima was frightened of flying even before the incident; she's petrified [now]".[14]
Islamic Marriage
At 21, Jemima Goldsmith married the 42-year old Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan on 16 May 1995 in a two-minute Islamic ceremony in Paris.[15] The couple later participated in a civil ceremony on 21 June at the Richmond Register Office,[16] which was followed by a midsummer ball at Ormeley Lodge.[17] Upon her marriage and subsequent move to Lahore, Khan underwent what she later called a reinvention.[18] Raised a Protestant,[4] she converted to Islam a few months before her wedding,[2] citing the writings of Muhammad Asad, Gai Eaton, and Alija Izetbegović as her influences.[19] She also learned to speak Urdu and wore traditional Pakistani clothes. In 2008, she wrote about regretting the fact that she "over conformed in [her] eagerness to be accepted" into "a new and radically different culture" of Pakistan.[18]
While married, Jemima Khan and Imran spent four months each year in UK and she gave birth to her sons at London's Portland hospital.[6] In 1999, in an accusation believed to be politically motivated, Khan was charged in Pakistan with the non-bailable crime of illegally exporting tiles claimed to be centuries-old antiques of the Islamic era. She stayed with her mother for a year due to fear of incarceration[20] and returned to Pakistan only after the case was dropped following General Pervez Musharraf's military coup.[21] She returned to UK full-time in 2002. After Khan decided that she couldn't settle in Pakistan, her divorce from Imran Khan was announced on 22 June 2004.[22] She later recalled, "I now think, my God, I mean, how did I live five years with Imran’s whole family, who I was very close to? I mean, I really liked and respected them, but obviously, they lived very, very differently."[23]
Relationship with Hugh Grant
In 2004, Khan became involved in a romantic relationship with movie star Hugh Grant. She initially put her studies at SOAS on hold for the relationship and gained a new level of fame during the three years she and Grant were partners. A 2005 article in the Evening Standard magazine noted that while "Jemima's profile" was high since her first marriage, it was "soaring since she became involved with Hugh Grant".[24] As he is followed relentlessly by the paparazzi and featured in print and television media worldwide, Grant's relationship with Khan was scrutinized extensively by the tabloids.[23] A survey of visitors to London in 2005 showed that Grant and Khan were the couple with whom a majority of visitors wanted to travel the city.[25] Grant refused to talk about the relationship in interviews and did not respond to tabloid and other media speculation. In 2005, when asked about the couple's plans to marry, Khan said, "I don't think I am any good at interviews and I am particularly hopeless when I am asked personal questions."[26]
In 2007, Khan accompanied Grant on the red carpet at the London and New York premieres of his movie Music and Lyrics. During the London world premiere of the film in February, which was also attended by Khan's mother and several family members, Grant stated, "People shouldn't believe what they hear. I am not marrying her. I've read and heard we are going to, but there is no truth to it."[27] After three years of the high profile romance, in February 2007, Grant announced that the couple had "decided to split amicably".[28] Grant's spokesman added: "Hugh has nothing but positive things to say about Jemima." Since then, there have been many unsubstantiated reports and speculation about the former couple because they have been publicly pictured together on several occasions.[29] Neither Grant nor Khan have directly talked about their relationship and its breakdown to the press.
Charity and other works
Jemima Khan is a supporter of Soil Association,[30] the Quilliam Foundation, and children's charities like HOPING foundation[31] and Chain of Hope.[32] In 1998, she launched an eponymous fashion label that employed poor Pakistani women to embroider western clothes with delicate eastern handiwork[33] to be sold in London and New York.[34][35] Profits were donated to the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital but the company was closed in 2001.[35] In 2008, she modeled the relaunched Azzaro Courture fragrance and was a guest co-designer of a Spring 2009 accessories collection for Azzaro, with her fee reportedly donated to UNICEF.[36][37] As voted by readers of the Daily Telegraph, she won the Rover People's Award for the best dressed female celebrity at the 2001 British Fashion Awards.[34] Khan was featured on Vanity Fair's Annual International Best-Dressed List in 2004, 2005 and 2007.[38]
Jemima Khan became a UK Ambassador for UNICEF in 2001 and went on field trips to Kenya, Romania, Bangladesh and Pakistan, where she helped victims of the 2005 earthquake by raising emergency funds. She has promoted UNICEF's Breastfeeding Manifesto,[39] Growing Up Alone[40] and End Child Exploitation campaigns in UK.[41][42] In 2001, she set up the Jemima Khan Afghan Refugee Appeal to provide tents, clothing, food, and healthcare for Afghan refugees at Jalozai camp in Peshawar.[43][44] In November 2007, Khan helped organize and participated, along with her family, in three demonstrations outside Downing Street to protest the incarceration of her ex-husband and the state of emergency in Pakistan.[45] Khan has been a contributing editor to Vogue UK. She has also contributed writings to England's newspapers,[46][47][48] such as a 2007 interview with President Pervez Musharraf.[49] She was a columnist for The Sunday Telegraph from 21 October 2007 to 27 January 2008.[50]

Happy Holidys is an alternative, more generic greeting to Merry Christmas and is more encompassing for the different cultures and people of the world.
Holiday greetings are a selection of greetings that are often spoken with good intentions to strangers, family, friends, or other people during the months of December and January. In the United States, holidays with greetings include Christmas, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Ramadan (which falls at a different time each year; every year it goes back 11 days) and recently, Kwanzaa. Some greetings are more prevalent than others, depending on the cultural and religious status of any given area.
Typically, a greeting consists of the word "Happy" followed by the holiday, such as "Happy Hanukkah" or "Happy New Year", although the phrase "Merry Christmas" is a notable exception. In the United States, the collective phrase "Happy Holidays" is often used as a simple way to refer to all of the winter holidays, or to the three major American holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. Some controversy has arisen regarding the phrase "Happy Holidays" as an alleged attempt to diminish Christmas although its use promotes other holidays commonly celebrated in the United States.

The winter solstice occurs at the instant when the Sun's position in the sky is at its greatest angular distance on the other side of the equatorial plane from the observers' hemisphere. Depending on the shift of the calendar, the event of the winter solstice occurs some time between December 20 and December 23 each year in the northern hemisphere, and between June 20 and June 23 in the southern hemisphere, during either the shortest day or the longest night of the year, which is not to be confused with the darkest day or night or the day with the earliest sunset or latest sunrise.
The seasonal significance of the winter solstice is in the reversal of the gradually lengthening nights and shortening days. How cultures interpret this is varied, since it is sometimes said to astronomically mark either the beginning or middle of a hemisphere's winter. Winter is a subjective term, so there is no scientifically established beginning or middle of winter but the winter solstice itself is clearly calculated to within a second. Though the winter solstice lasts an instant, the term is also colloquially used to refer to the full 24-hour period of the day on which it occurs.
Worldwide, interpretation of the event has varied from culture to culture, but most cultures have held a recognition of rebirth, involving holidays, festivals, gatherings, rituals or other celebrations around that time.[2]
The word solstice derives from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still).

Blueservo.net is an amazing odot web cam site that concerned citizens can use to view the US and mexican border.
The blueserver idea is that Americans can watch on odot web cams to check for illegal crossings from Mexico into the United States. Blueservo.net is a virtual citizens arrest site.
There's a list of odot web cams that can be viewed and the request that any border crossing activity be reported. Is this a good idea? I guess blueservo.net will find out soon enough.

Beverly Hills Ninja is a 1997 comedy film starring Chris Farley as a bumbling ninja in Beverly Hills. Written by Mark Feldberg and Mitchell Klebanoff and directed by Dennis Dugan. Also starring Nicollette Sheridan, Nathaniel Parker, Robin Shou, Soon-Tek Oh, and Chris Rock.
Chris Farley plays Haru, who was found by ninjas as an infant and was raised by them. Haru never quite conforms to their culture and never acquires the skills of a ninja but is nonetheless good-natured and persevering in his personal ambitions. His first mission brings him to Beverly Hills to investigate a murder mystery.
Plot
A clan of ninjas find a chest that has been washed onto shore, inside of which is a white baby boy. An ancient legend spoke of a foreigner who would come among the ninjas and become a master like no other. The boy, Haru, is raised amongst the ninja, with the expectation that he may be the one the legend speaks of. However, doubts are cast over him being the great white ninja. Although he possess some ninja traits, Haru (Chris Farley) is clumsy and does not really fit in. He does not graduate a ninja with the rest of his class. Left alone to guard the temple while all the ninjas are on a mission, Haru poses as a ninja when a blonde American woman comes in search of the services of one. The woman, Sally Jones (Nicollette Sheridan), is suspicious of her man, Martin Tanley (Nathaniel Parker), and sends Haru down to the harbour to investigate. Haru sees that Tanley is involved in a counterfeiting business, and also witnesses a murder. The clan are upset with Haru's actions, as the police now suspect a ninja is responsible for a murder. However, Haru is adamant that Sally is in trouble, despite the name Sally Jones appearing to be a pseudonym. Haru departs for America, to Beverly Hills (judging from a pack of matches she left behind). Gobei (Robin Shou), the best ninja in Haru's class, is sent to watch over him.
Haru has trouble adjusting to Western culture, but checks into a Beverly Hills hotel, where he befriends an employee, Joey (Chris Rock), teaching him a few ninja lessons. Haru goes in search of Sally, convinced that she is in trouble. He eventually finds her (unknowingly with the help of Gobei), but she distances herself from him. Haru tails Tanley to a club, where he is trying to get back a set of plates from a rival gang. However, Haru again finds himself the suspect of another two murders. He returns to the hotel the next day he meditates to communicate with his sensei for guidance. He resumes his quest, and tracks down Tanley's home. Once breaking in he is able to speak with Sally Jones, whose real name is actually Allison Page. Haru begins to trust her again, and she explains that she suspects Tanley of killing her sister. That night Haru and Allison escape a gun-fight at an Asian restaurant, and Tanley sees Allison there (Tanley and Haru were both surprised to see Allison there). The pair have to retreat to the hotel. The next day Haru poses as an ink specialist and is taken to Tanley's offices. However, Tanley soon finds out that he is "the fat ninja that everyone is talking about." While Tanley is in the process of getting the other half of the plates that night, Allison rescues Haru from the back of a van. However Allison is taken by Tanley, and Haru must find his way back to his offices, but since he was blindfolded during his first journey, he must recreate the ride by memory, and enlists the help of Joey, and without his knowing, Gobei is hiding in the trunk. After Joey drives into a horse race and a car wash, Haru and Joey start over. Gobei gets out of the trunk after Haru is blindfolded, knocks Joey out, and Gobei drives to Tanley's warehouse. Haru uses the momentum of a large palm tree to jump into the warehouse, while Gobei also makes it in.
They are met by Tanley's men, and they fight together (Haru nunchucking Gobei several times by accident) until Haru is reminded that he should be saving Allison. Using a forklift, he smashes two holes in the wall of the room where Allison is held captive, almost setting off the bomb. He tries to defuse the bomb, but accidentally resets the timer for five minutes. Haru leaves Allison for a moment to help Gobei, who is surrounded. Haru jumps off the railing and lands on an axe-wielding henchman that is about to kill Gobei. Haru suddenly becomes an adept ninja when Gobei gets hurt by one of Tanley's workers. They defeat the henchmen with a little help from Joey, who jumps through the window in the same fashion Haru did and lands on one of them. Haru and Gobei must now defeat Tanley, who has a gun. Haru slices the rope of a winch, aiming for Tanley, but the hook knocks Gobei out instead. Blocking Tanley's bullets by swinging his swords, Haru eventually incapacitates Tanley. Haru runs back to the upper level. Using a huge harpoon gun mounted on a cart, he shoots a harpoon through the room, which inadvertently caught onto a truck Tanley attempts to escape in. After catching the bomb, the cart pulls itself to Tanley's truck, which explodes seconds later. Haru saves Allison. Tanley and the remaining henchmen are arrested.
The ending sequence shows an about-to-be-married Allison and Haru talking to his sensei (Soon-Tek Oh) about leaving to a place that needs more ninjas. Allison and Haru leave in the back of a truck, which drags a rope tied to Gobei's wheelchair. Haru shouts an apology to his brother, who is flung into the ocean.

But a palindrome doesn't have to consist of only one word. For example:
Live Evil or Straw Warts although not common place words are examples of multiple word palindromes.
There is a man who professes to have created the worlds longest palindrome of 74,633 letters. Even though he used a computer program to do it that's still very impressive.
The origins of the palindrome are thought to have been for word games and examples for the Greek language date back several centuries.
