In this modern day and age, with pressures and anxieties piled up high, is it really any wonder that someone would come up with the genius idea of a Scream Day?
While certainly there is much to be said for enjoying a massage or meditation to calm those frazzled nerves, some psychologists believe that a good old scream can be therapeutic in its own way. At least, temporarily. When a person releases their frustrations, via a way of a good old fashioned howl, the brain relaxes which could actually bring some much needed immediate relief.
So if science says screaming is good for people, it’s time to learn more about Scream Day, and perhaps even make an effort to celebrate it!
Learn about Scream Day
Scream Day has been created to help the millions of people who need to let out that pent up frustration. Scream Day could bring some awareness to the health benefits of letting out a big bellow. Whether choosing to do it in the shower, in the car, in a closet or into a pillow, letting out a scream can be therapeutic and stress-reducing.
Scream Day simply brings attention to this and serves as a reminder for those who might need to release some pressure with a scream. Scream Day can help millions of people release tension in a safe and controlled way and people who want to know more can find out from the official Scream Day site.
History of Scream Day
For over 2000 years Eastern Medicine has enjoyed and promoted the health benefits of the scream. Dr. Lu, who is a master of Chinese Medicine, states that screaming helps with Liver Chi stagnation.
Primal Screaming has a long history too. Developed by Arthur Yanov in the 1960s, the primal scream was designed to help people release all of the tension and pent up emotions in a long, loud scream. The scream unlocks feelings deep down inside and allows them to be released, offering a sense of relief.
Currently there isn’t much of a history of Scream Day, because the day is fairly new. But in a few years, that might change! Each year there seems to be a lot of pressure on people, and from time to time, it is nice to let it all out.

- The Lord says to the cat, "You lived a good life and if there is any way I can make your stay in Heaven more comfortable, please let Me know." The cat thinks for a moment and says, "Lord, all my life I have lived with a poor family and had to sleep on a hard wooden floor." The Lord stops the cat and says, "Say no more," and a wonderful fluffy pillow appears.
A few days later, six mice are killed in a tragic farming accident and go to heaven. Again, there is the Lord there to great them with the same offer. The mice answer, "All of our lives we have been chased. We have had to run from cats, dogs and even women with brooms. Running, running, running; we're tired of running. Do you think we could have roller skates so we don't have to run anymore?" The Lord says, "Say no more," and fits each mouse with beautiful new roller skates.
About a week later the Lord stops by to see the cat and finds him snoozing on the pillow. The Lord gently wakes the cat and asks him, "How are things since you got here?"
The cat stretches and yawns and replies, "It is wonderful here. Better than I could have ever expected. And those 'Meals On Wheels' you've been sending by are the best!"

WORD OF THE DAY
littoral
Literal/Littoral (a poem on sand)
MEANING:adjective: Relating to or situated at the shore.
noun: A shore, especially the area between high tide and low tide levels.
ETYMOLOGY:From Latin litus (shore). Earliest documented use: 1656.
USAGE:“This could shift the balance of power within littoral countries. Coastal Bremen, one of Germany’s poorest states, could gain clout at the expense of rich but landlocked Bavaria.”
Europe’s New Powerhouse; The Economist (London, UK); Jan 7, 2023.
“Where to stay insofar as the river itself is the primary attraction, it only makes sense to stay somewhere with a river view. Fortunately, there’s a literal abundance of littoral opportunity.”
Marshall S. Berdan; New York’s Thousand Island Blessing; Newsday (Long Island, New York); Jul 28, 2019.

(Not So) TOTALLY USELESS FACTS OF THE DAY
Las Vegas hosts many weddings every year, ever month, every day. So many in fact that they are averaging around 300 weddings per day.
A banana is a fruit… right? Not so fast. A banana actually comes from the berry family. Bananas originate from a single ovary, have a soft skin, and a fleshy middle. This makes them a berry.
Who eats the most amount of ice cream? The answer is the country of New Zealand. Per capita, this country consumes an average of 7.5 gallons per person every year. The United States, Australia, Finland, and Sweden round out the Top 5.

The Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar, Germany, houses a major collection of German literature and historical documents. In 1991, the tricentennial of its opening to the public, the Ducal Library was renamed for Duchess Anna Amalia of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Today, the library is a public research library for literature and art history and contains over 1,000,000 items, 150,000 of which are available for open use and borrowing. The main focus of the collection is German literature from the Classical and the late Romantic eras. The library was inscribed on UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites as part of the Classical Weimar site because of its testimony to the global cultural importance of Weimar in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, during the Weimar Classicism movement. This photo is from the Rococo hall.

ANSWER:- 410
PATTERN:- We See Pattern, If We take First Equation, 5 + 3 = 28 ,
The Subtraction of 5 – 3 = 2, The Addition of 5 + 3 = 8,
It Completes the Digit 28, the Subtraction gives the First Digit 2 and Addition Gives the Second Digit 8 .
Hence it’s Formed 28 .
