NOTE as to Shavuot / Feast of Sevens / Pentecost:

There are three varying views on this day.  Two of them are in unity this year as the Sunday during Chag Ha'Matzot and the 16th day of the Chodesh are one and the same, resulting in a cyclical count placing Shavuot on Sunday 15 May.  On the lunar reckoning, the seventh Shabbat will in most places be Tuesday, 17 May, making Shavuot Wednesday, 18 May (based on the Chodesh sighting on Monday, 9 May).
