I have my Google Calendar synced with my Galaxy S3. However, I don't get notifications for U.S. Holidays. Also, I found that alerts from my previous phone were carried over, but they were manual entries, duplicating what the Calender already marked. So, I deleted all of that nonsense. Alas, I don't get those notifications, even though they are a part of the calender. My Settings are setup for Status bar notification, which I assume would effect all entries on the Calender.
I do not like having a Calender widget on any of my screens, so I'm not using that as a reference. Besides, I want to eliminate as many redundancies as possible. I much prefer to have it running in the background, notifying me of events when needed. But again, it doesn't seem to do that.
How do I get this working? Some entries have Alarm clock symbols and options. However, U.S. Holidays and Contact Birthdays have neither. I can't even set up Reminders and notifications on Chrome for desktop, if that even matters in this context.

Thank you for your time.
