Where's Waldo? He's 21 and Getting Drunk
Happy Birthday Waldo! Yes, the Waldo from the Where's Waldo series (or Onde está o Wally? in Portugal and Brazil, Où est Charlie? in France and Quebec, Find Holger in Denmark, Hvar er Valli? in Iceland, Look for Wally. or ウォーリーを探せ。 in Japan, Wo ist Walter? in Germany, 월리를 찾아라! in Korea, ¿Dónde está Wally? in Spain, Dov'è Wally? in Italian and Где Уолли? in Russian) is of age to drink in the US.

So, happy birthday and be good. We don't want to find Waldo passed out in a ditch, vomitting in bushes, picking a fight with Danny Bonaduce, or drunk dialing his ex. by Raoul Calleja Happy Birthday Waldo!

My Fickle Birthday Blog
The internet allows more freedom to be who you are, to speak your mind. It's also a very social place. People want to share, to help. And there's plenty of people wanting help of one sort of another: donations for charities, money to help pay off credit cards, advice, opinions and on and on. My Fickle Birthday Blog is a social experiment of sorts based on these facts. Using the internet and a blog format, I'm putting out a request for birthday gifts for my 30th birthday (Sept. 1st). If I ask, will people send gifts? The internet allows more freedom to be who you are, to speak your mind. It's also a very social place. People want to share, to h... more

Birthday wishes pour in for Mandela
Messages of congratulations, tributes and good wishes are pouring in from home and abroad, from ordinary people and influential leaders alike for former South African president Nelson Mandela on his 90th birthday.
President Thabo Mbeki extended his message on behalf of the entire nation to the internationally revered statesman and former political prisoner on Friday.
"We are proud as South Africans that Mr Mandela and his generation of fighters embraced with both passion and reason the mission that history imposed on them and more than met the demands that it enjoined them to fulfil," he said in Pretoria on Friday.
Mbeki said South Africans glowed in the light of fame because the country stood on the shoulders of icons such as Mandela.
Harmony and equality
He recalled Mandela's statement at the opening of the defence case in the Rivonia Trial in the Pretoria Supreme Court on 20 April 1964: "I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities," Mandela said back then.
"It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die."
Mbeki urged the current generation to return to the question of their mission and how to fulfil it, as conditions and circumstances evolved, much in the same way that Mandela's generation had to discover and fulfil its mission.
"Finding answers to this question simultaneously as we celebrate his birthday is perhaps the biggest present we can give to Nelson Mandela," said Mbeki. "Many happy returns - ukhule ukhokhobe!"

Nelson Mandela celebrates 90th birthday
Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid icon, Nobel peace laureate and South Africa's first black president, celebrated his 90th birthday Friday by doing something he had indicated he would not do again -- grant an interview to journalists.
A cheerful-looking Mandela welcomed CNN's Robyn Curnow, along with reporters from two other organizations, into the sitting room of his home in Qunu, a small village in the rolling hills of South Africa's eastern Cape region where he grew up.
"What day is this?" Mandela joked, pretending not to realize it was his birthday.
He used a smile to dodge Curnow's first question of what was his favorite memory from his long life. He did say he was very happy to have lived to be 90.
Mandela credited his longevity to the way he conducted his life. He is known to be disciplined with his diet and exercise.
Asked if, in hindsight, he wishes he had spent more time with his family, he answered yes.
"I don't regret it because the things that attracted me were things that pleased my soul."
Graca Machel, whom he married on his 80th birthday, sat nearby and Mandela was surrounded by grandchildren. Video Watch Mandela's birthday celebrations »
Mandela then lamented the gap between rich and poor in South Africa.
"Poverty still grips our people. If you're poor, you're not likely to live for long," he said.
This was Mandela's first meeting with reporters since he announced in 2004 that he would give no more interviews. While he stayed out of the spotlight over the last four years, he has stayed busy with his charitable causes.
All week residents of Qunu, 600 miles south of Johannesburg, have been making preparations for the celebrations. Events planned include a soccer festival, a pop concert and lunch for 500 politicians, veterans of the anti-apartheid struggle and other guests at his home Saturday.
An exhibition of letters that children wrote to Mandela and the late U.S. civil rights campaigner Rosa Parks will be displayed at the Nelson Mandela Museum, a short distance from his house.
"We are very excited," local school principal Mpondomise Ndzambo told the Associated Press, sitting in his office beneath a photograph of the former president. "Usually these celebrations are done in Johannesburg, so this is a way of being part of it." Send your birthday messages
In 1964, a court sentenced Mandela to life in prison for plotting to overthrow the government by violence. He spent the first 18 years at Robben Island Prison, off Cape Town, South Africa, and later spent time at Pollsmoor prison and Victor Verster Prison, closer to the mainland.
While in prison, Mandela became recognized as the most significant black leader in South Africa, and he became a potent symbol of resistance in the anti-apartheid movement. Mandela consistently refused to compromise his political position to obtain his freedom.
South Africa's last apartheid-era president who also served as Mandela's vice president, F.W. de Klerk, released Mandela in February 1990 after 27 years in prison. Mandela was elected president of the African National Congress the following year, and in 1994, he was elected president of his country.
As South Africa's first black president -- he only ran for one term -- Mandela ushered in a democratic, multiracial society that is still going strong. Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid icon, Nobel peace laureate and South Africa's first black president, celebrated his 90th birthday ... more -

A Look at the Emperor of Japan - the institution, the history, the birthday
Japan's Imperial System stretches back of two thousand years. According to Japanese mythology, the emperor is descended from Jimmu, a semi-divine being whose grandmother was Amaterasu-Omikami, the Sun Goddess. Jimmu reigned in 600 B.C. However, there is little evidence to support this. Most scholars believe the Imperial system developed from the Yamato culture in central Japan around the 3rd century A.D. with Chinese influences.
The emperor was seen as the divine manifested in the flesh; a representative of the gods on earth. To oppose the emperor was to oppose Japan itself. This made it quite risky for any usurpers not of Imperial blood to try and take the throne.
The history of the Imperial Line is a rocky one filled with political intrigue, murder, war, and betrayal. Emperors had been manipulated by politically-saavy ministers and later by powerful warlords. Emperors had been imprisoned, driven off, exiled, forced to abdicate and used to further the careers and schemes of others.
Today's Imperial Palace is off-limits except on the Emperor's birthday and January 2nd when the Emperor gives a New Year's Address. Japan's Imperial System stretches back of two thousand years. According to Japanese mythology, the emperor is descended from Jimm... more -
