Manuary is a holiday dedicated to men that is celebrated in January of each year. It involves paying homage to men in traditional fashion - eating meat, consuming alcohol, and engaging in man-sports such as snow football, ice hockey, ice fishing, etc. Manuary seeks to give men an opportunity to enjoy their favorite pasttimes, to develop new hobbies and skills such as developing survival skills and home repair, and to get away with all of the things that men do which usually don't go unnoticed by the women due to their vulgar, barbarous, or in other ways stereotypical male nature.
History
In 2007, Justin Manzo, one of the forerunners in Manuary festivities, overheard two men talking about Manuary in a bar. The 'progenitors', as they have henceforth been named, sparked a curiosity that developed into an interest, which soon festered into a burning passion, for publicizing Manuary and all of its man-praise. Gathering as many friends and as much family support as possible, Justin and his compatriots became committed to the celebration, going so far as to put up a website detailing their activities.
Manuary has support primarily in Ithaca, New York, along with satellite support in Chicago, Illinois and Washington, D.C.
Activities
One of the principal components of Manuary is the temporary hiatus for all shaving, to the point that a 'BeardWatch' page has been created to chronicle daily progress. Participants from around the globe are encouraged to send in their photos to post to the Manuary website.
In addition, weekly man-meals are prepared which are commonly consumed almost exclusively by men - steak and potatoes, ribs, sausage plates.
Guidelines
All guidelines are posted on the Manuary website, but a few of them are as follows:
At least one home construction project in a state of partial completion throughout the month
No shaving, or at least reduced beard maintenance
Weekly man-meals
Exercise should only come from man-sport, shoveling snow, or splitting wood
At least one outing communing with nature and learning new manly skills, such as making a fire or fishing
Consumption of meat at every meal
Guidelines are flexible, and new suggestions are always encouraged.

Ignite Films is an online production company that provides entertainment to the world free of charge. The type of entertainment ranges from extreme reality to fictional short films. Although the content is not adult oriented, viewer discretion is advised.
History of the Website
was derived from a now defunct site that focused primarily on an extreme group of campers. Crazy Camping was only one single category of clips that the Ignite Crew wanted to show the world. Ignite Films was created not only as an expansion project, but also to diversify the types of footage produced.
Version 1.1 of the website was put online in 2002. This early version was mostly just an enhancement of the old Crazy Camping site. The site was built using HTML and was very static in nature.
Later, version 2.0 was built and included Crazy Camping as a ‘Channel’ along with: Havoc TV, Home Brew, Reckless, and WTF? and Guerilla Video. Each channel was a separate web page and grouped videos by their common theme. This version of the website also included an online forum called the Rant. The site was redesigned and built using php. This created a more dynamic feel to the site and made it simpler for the crew to upload and maintain footage. A rating system was also integrated as well.
The technical and professional upgrades of the new millennium provided the Ignite Films Members (or Crew) with new opportunities financially. The group started to provide several TV networks with clips for reality and clip shows and also started submissions into various film festivals. Delivering their content through new media, Ignite Films was expanding quickly.
The internet was still where Ignite Films flourished the most. Taking advantage of popular web sites such as youtube and myspace, Ignite Films footage has been viewed more than any one could have imagined.
To keep the business end of Ignite Films in order, the Ignite Films Corporation was founded in 2006.
