Dec. 16th - 31st, 2013

Here we are in December --- that wonderful month marking the end of our calendar year, as well as a time of special celebrations.  Beginning with Hanukkah, or the Festival of Lights, followed by Christmas, the commemoration of Christ's birth, and Kwanzaa, the observation of the importance of family, community and culture, the month culminates with New Year's Eve, the threshold for things yet to come. This is a time of seasonal decorations, spiritual observations and reunions, featuring good food and drink, warm feelings, and giving and receiving of gifts.  The Yule season is a festive remembrance of times past and present, as well as an  anticipation of times ahead.  Enjoy the season!  Make this a December to remember.  And, when possible, take time to work a puzzle or two from this month's selection or the archives provided.  Happy Holidays!

October is the harbinger of change in the northern hemisphere.  Indian Summer sets in briefly with warm days and crisp nights.  Trees put on their color extravaganza, an annual arboreal finale, as we begin to concentrate on creature comforts in preparation for the colder days ahead.  We celebrate Columbus Day and Halloween, perhaps while curled up by a crackling fire; an excellent setting for working on a few crossword puzzles.  Please click below for a current selection or browse the archives listed to the right with more than 1100 additional choices for your puzzling pleasure.

Named by the Romans to honor their emperor Augustus, August represents the height of summer in the temperate zones of the northern hemisphere.  Although the longest days of the year have passed, the hottest days remain.  Strangely, it is the only month of the calendar year not to have a national U.S. holiday.  The Anglo-Saxons referred to August as "Weod monath" or "Weed month" because it is the period when plant growth is most active.  It also represents one of the busiest tourism months and a time when most workers enjoy a vacation.  Away or at home, remember to find a cool spot, spread out, and enjoy your daily crossword puzzles.  And, remember the archives to the right contain over 1000 additional entries for your puzzle pleasure.

July 16th - 31st, 2013

July has arrived, and with it the second half of our year begins.  Named for Julius Caesar, it once was the fifth month of the year, but was moved to become our seventh month and acquired an extra day!  In the northern hemisphere it begins the hottest season, known familiarly as "the dog days of summer".  It also represents a relatively drier time of year with flowers in abundance that crave the warmth.  Beyond being "National Hot Dog Month", July is undoubtedly best recognized in the U.S. by the celebration of Independence Day on the 4th of the month, with fireworks displays, family picnics and barbeques, baseball, and time away from work at favorite leisure spots.  As you enjoy the summer activities, remember to squeeze in some time for your mental exercises and crossword puzzles.  These are a great way to start a day at breakfast or end a day after supper.  Happy puzzling!

June signals the approach of mid-year and the beginning of Summer in the northern hemisphere.  It is the end of the school year for many students or the end of a study program and graduation, plus it heralds the beginning of the traditional vacation season between Memorial Day and Labor Day in the United States.  Named for the Roman goddess Juno, known as the goddess of marriage, this month is looked upon as the best for couples to tie the knot!  We look forward to more daylight hours as the longest day approaches in the northern hemisphere and delight in the abundance of greenery and flowers, especially the roses.  Major holidays this month are Flag Day and Father's Day.  Enjoy the season and remember to continue playing daily crossword puzzles for better mental health, as well as the entertainment factor.  Current entries are posted below and the archives, listed to the right, now contain over 1000 additional selections to choose from!

May, generally, is one of he most beautiful months in the northern hemisphere; with any traces of ice and snow mostly gone.  Named for Maia, the Roman goddess of Spring and growth, May is the harbinger of sprouting gardens, blooming wild flowers, the greening of trees and grasses, the building of birds' nests and our desire to spend more time outdoors.  Events celebrated during the month include Cinco de Mayo, the Kentucky Derby, Mother's Day, Armed Forces Day, and concludes with Memorial Day.  Take time to enjoy this gentler season as well as work in time for some crossword puzzles.  Breakfast is the perfect time to stimulate your mental faculties, but you may prefer to defer playing until there is time to relax at day's end.  Either way, check out the daily offerings below, and, if not a regular player, browse the archives to the right for hundreds more puzzles to do.

The first full month of Spring, April ushers in a welcomed time of change.  From the Latin "aperire" meaning "to open", it is a time when trees and flowers burst forth in the northern hemisphere, birds return and the bees and butterflies are busy.  It is planting time, pro baseball season begins, thoughts turn to Spring cleaning and yard work, plus it is a time for some leisure in appreciated warm sunshine.  April opens with April Fool's Day, celebrated world-wide as a day of jokes and general foolishness.  It is the month that also  hosts Arbor Day, the annual event geared toward a consciousness for reforestation.  As you enjoy this season of less confinement and the onset of more outdoor activities, don't forget to take a few moments now and then to do a crossword puzzle or two, which is a great way to exercise your mental faculties.  Enjoy this month's offerings listed below or tap into the archives listed to the right where you will find more than 900 additional postings.

Welcome to March: the herald of Spring.  This is the month that "comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb" (hopefully).  This is a time when animals end their hibernation, plants and trees come back to life, and the sap begins to flow.  Originally the first month on the Roman calendar, it is named for Mars, the god of war, undoubtedly because it represents a period of unsettled weather.  The major holiday celebrated in March is St. Patrick's Day, in commemoration of the Irish priest who became the patron saint of Ireland.  This month, in the northern hemisphere, we look forward to the beginning of Spring with softer days to come and the return to outdoor activities, shedding heavy clothing, and enjoying more sunshine again.  Either inside or out, remember to reserve a few moments to do a puzzle or two from time to time.  This month's selections appear below, or you can choose from the 900+ puzzles in the archives listed to the right.

Feb.16th - 28th, 2013

February, together with January, were the last two months to be added to the Roman calendar, since Romans originally considered Winter a "monthless" period.  Today we know February as the shortest month, with only 28 or 29 days, depending on leap year.  But, at certain intervals in history it had been shorter still with only 23, 24 or 27 days!  During the month we observe Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, Presidents' Day, and, all month long, celebrate Black History Month.  In the northern hemisphere, we look for moderating temperatures and the return of Spring, while in the southern hemisphere, just the opposite: a turn toward Autumn and cooler weather.  In either hemisphere we encourage you to spend some leisure time solving a crossword puzzle or two.  It's good for the mind!  Enjoy this month's offerings and also visit the archives when time permits for more than 850 additional challenges.

January is, quite appropriately, the threshold to the new year, so named after the Roman god Janus, often referred to as the "Lord of Beginnings".  He was always pictured with a face that looked backwards and forwards at the same time.  Thus, January is a time of reflection and new resolution, a time of building on the past and planning for the future.  We hope this new beginning ushers in a period of opportunities and accomplishments for each of our puzzle players and that you will be blessed with good health and happiness. Happy New Year!
