Russell Baker’s story is
fascinating. His father died
when he was only five, and
his mother struggled to
keep her family together.
She managed to raise them
in the midst of a large ex-
tended family of assorted
and colorful uncles, aunts
and cousins. They moved
from Virginia to New Jer-
sey and Baltimore.

Each December 31st, people anxiously await and
count down to the arrival of the new year. January 1 of-
ten is a time for reflection and for making future plans.
It also is a holiday full of tradition.
Notable New Year’s traditions include toasting cham-
pagne beneath skies lit up by fireworks, kissing one’s
sweetheart at midnight and making resolutions to better
oneself in the year ahead.
New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day traditions vary
across the globe. The following is a look at the unique
ways people ring in the new year throughout the world.
• Filipinos embrace round fruits for the new year. The
custom includes gathering 12 different round fruits for
each month of the year. The round shape symbolizes
wealth and prosperity.
• Around Stonehaven, Scotland, people wield large
fireballs for the Hogmanay festival on New Year’s Eve.
The idea is to ward off evil spirits by swinging balls of
fires over the heads of trained professionals and then
tossing them into the sea. The tradition has endured for
more than 100 years.
• In the Eastern Orthodox Greek Church, Christmas
isn’t celebrated until January 7. Aghios Vassilis, the
Greek Santa Claus, makes his rounds on New Year’s
Day.
• Chilean families celebrate the arrival of the new
year by commemorating deceased friends and fami-
ly members. It is common for those in Chile to set up
chairs next to graves in the cemetery.
• Burmese people end the Thingyan water festival on
New Year’s Day. Since April, they have celebrated the
arrival of Thagyamin, a celestial Buddhist figure, with
the firing of water cannons. The water-logged revelry
ends with the new year.
• Siberians celebrate the new year’s with the planting
of the “New Year’s Tree” underneath frozen lakes. This
"yolka" is said to symbolize the coming of Father Frost,
but also represents starting over.
• Grapes are a hallmark of Spanish New Year’s cele-
brations. Throughout Spain, revelers gobble a grape per
second as they count down the last 12 seconds of the
year. Each grape corresponds to good luck for the 12
months of the new year.
• In Denmark, residents break old dishes on the door-
steps of family and friends on New Year’s Day. The
bigger the pile, the more friends and good will in the
new year.
• In China, where the new year is celebrated on Feb-
ruary 5 this year according to the lunar calendar, cele-
brants paint their doors red or hang red curtains or cut-
outs on windows to symbolize good luck.

Jonna says because de-
termining the cause of
your joint pain is the first
step toward getting the
relief that can help you
resume normal activities,
scheduling an appoint-
ment with an orthopedic
specialist is imperative.
“Early diagnosis and
treatment can help pre-
vent, minimize or delay
joint damage and pain
and enhance quality of
life,” Jonna said.
