Gong xi fa cai to Kwajalein this Quian Xi Asia marks new year with thousand happinesses The Chinese calendar and its animals There are many legends about the origins of the Chinese lunar calendar, in which an animal is assigned to each year in a 12-year cycle. According to one legend, the Lord Buddha summoned all the animals of the world to come to him before he departed Earth. Only 12 came to bid him farewell. He named a year after each in the order of their arrival. First came the rat, then the ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and boar. A second legend tells that the 12 animals quarreled one day about which one was to head the cycle of years. The gods were asked to decide, and they held a contest: whoever reached the opposite bank of the river first would head the first cycle, and the rest of the animals would receive their years according to their finish. The 12 animals gathered at the riverbank and jumped in. Unknown to the ox, the rat had jumped on his back. As the ox was about to climb ashore, the rat jumped off the ox s back and won the race. The boar, which was very lazy, ended up last. That is why the rat is the first year of the animal cycle, the ox is second, and the boar last. The Chinese believe the animal ruling the year in which a person is born has a profound influence on personality. They say, This is the animal that hides in your heart. To determine your lunar animal, match your birth year with the animals below. Add or subtract 12 as needed: Rat: You are imaginative, charming, and very generous to those you love, though you do have a tendency to be quick-tempered and overly critical. You will be happy as a writer, critic, or publicist. (1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984) Ox: You are a born leader and inspire confidence in those around you. Be careful about being too demanding. You are also methodical and good with your hands. You will make a good surgeon, general, or hairdresser. (1937, 1949, 1961,1973, 1985) Tiger: You are sensitive, emotional, and capable of great love, but you tend to be stubborn about what you think is right. You will make an excellent boss, explorer, or race car driver. (1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986) Rabbit: You are affectionate, cooperative, and always pleasant, and people like to be around you. You can, however, get too sentimental and seem superficial. You will make a successful business person, lawyer, diplomat, or actor. (1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987) Dragon: You are full of life and enthusiasm and a very popular individual with a reputation for being fun-loving. You will make a good artist, priest, or politician. (1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988) Snake: You are wise and charming. You are also romantic and a deep thinker, but you tend to procrastinate and be a bit stingy about money. You will make a good teacher, writer, or psychiatrist. (1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989) Horse: You are an amazingly hard worker and very independent. Although you are intelligent and friendly, you can sometimes be a bit selfish. You will find success as an adventurer, scientist, or poet. (1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990) Sheep: You are charming, elegant, and artistic, and you like material comforts, but you also have a tendency to complain about things and worry a bit too much. You will make a good actor, gardener, or beachcomber. (1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991) Monkey: You are very intelligent, clever, and well-liked by everyone. You will have success in any field you try. (1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992) Rooster: You are a hardworker and definite in your decisions. You are not afraid to speak your mind and are, therefore, sometimes boastful. You will make a good restaurant owner, publicist, or world traveler. (1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993) Dog: You are honest and faithful to those you love, but you tend to worry too much and find fault with others. You will make an excellent business person, teacher, or secret agent. (1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994) Boar: You are a good friend because you are sincere, tolerant, and honest, but you expect the same from others and may be terribly disappointed. You will thrive in the arts as an entertainer, or you may make a great lawyer. (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995)
Marines faced vicious fighting, lost good friends... (From page 1) Marines use bulldozers on Namur Island to find hidden Japanese positions. Telephone men of the 84th Regiment, responsible for the laying of all telephone wires on Namur, pose for a group photo after the battle. 1st Lt. Mahoney, of New Orleans located in the back row, center, seated commanded the group. I thank God every day that I was not wounded.
Marines check for Japanese snipers near a blockhouse. The blockhouse contained tons of high explosives. This Marshallese man was found in a 30' by 15' foxhole on Namur. He had lived there with his wife during the bombardment. The Marshallese man was questioned, after which he collected souvenirs and gave presents to the Marine who found him, pictured in the white hat.
