There are two solstices each year: the summer solstice and the winter solstice. The summer solstice occurs around June 21, marking the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. The winter solstice takes place around December 21, representing the shortest day of the year. In the Southern Hemisphere, these events are reversed, with the summer solstice in December and the winter solstice in June.
In 2010 the Southern Solstice takes place on the 21st of December at 23:38 UTC, which in New Zealand Daylight Saving time is 12:38 on the 22nd therefore the longest day for New Zealand for 2010 is December 22.
The shortest day is on December 21 if you are in the northern hemisphere. If you live in the southern hemisphere, the 21st of June is the shortest day. You could also say that they day which the clocks go forward is the shortest day, as that day will skip an hour and so it will only have 23 hours instead of 24 hours.
The final will take place on 11 December 2011.

The shortest day in the Northern Hemisphere is the day on which the winter solstice falls. This is the time when we pass from fall to winter. The shortest day of winter, and also the shortest day in the entire year, is the Winter Solstice, which takes place on December 22, 2011. (Note: this is associated with the Northern Hemisphere only.)
Day and night varies throughout the year depending on the angle of the sun and the axis of the earth. The further you are from the equator the greater the differences. If you live on the equator the difference is virtually nil.
You would expect days to be longest during the summer solstice, which occurs around June 21st in the Northern Hemisphere and around December 21st in the Southern Hemisphere. During this time, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, resulting in the longest daylight hours of the year.

The longest overtime game in Monday Night Football history took place on December 3, 1979, between the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots. The game lasted 82 minutes and 40 seconds, ending with a Dolphins victory after a missed field goal by the Patriots led to a Miami touchdown. This thrilling matchup remains one of the most memorable in the history of the NFL.
This is impossible to answer without a location. In general days are shortest in December and January in the Northern Hemisphere, and June and July in the southern. However, days are not always sunny. That depends on the weather patterns in specific places. You would need to look at weather records for the place in which you are interested.
Over the course of a year, every point on Earth has the same total duration of sun-up and sun-not-up. If you're looking for the place that get's the most all in one chunk, then the north and south poles are tied for first place. Each pole has the sun up for six months, followed by six months when the sun is not in the sky.
