helwenA couple from an online acquaintance:
Candy Canes Fight Germs is about the various properties of Peppermint.
Mistletoe Fights Cancer is about Mistletoe (European, not American)

The year 2012 comes up in conversations now and then, and of course the History Channel is having some fun with it next weekend, plus there is a disaster film coming out in July 2009 I believe.
Here's the Wikipedia Entry on 2012. They list all sorts of things that are happening in 2012. Did you know that the location for the Superbowl has already been determined? I don't know anything about football, but I'm mildly impressed that they're so organized.
Anyway, lots of stuff happening in 2012 - elections, various competitions, astronomical events of interest, all the Olympics, and more. For those interested in the Mayan calendar, there's a link or two pertaining to that as well.
I'm a little boggled at how many apocalyptic songs have been written, specifically about 2012...

Decided to add the Wikipedia entry on Mesoamerican (Mayan) Long Count Calendar for being able to check that out without having to look through the whole 2012 entry. Interesting to read about Mayan references to dates beyond 2012.
