The Bridge - Compassionate, Evidence-Based Human Services.
We also offer specialized training for human services professionals through The Bridge Training Institute. In addition, the Bridge provides Trauma Response services and operates the Safe Homes program to support LGBTQ youth ages 14-23.
Annual Holiday Gift Drive
The holiday season is the perfect time to show those around you how much you care. For many of us, we come together as families and/or friends to celebrate. And as we share warm dinners, we also exchange gifts. Yet, there are those who do not have any of this for the holidays; no family or friends and not one gift to open.
In the spirit of the season, The Bridge of Central MA is holding our annual Holiday Gift Drive. To assist in our efforts, we are asking you to support us and consider making a monetary donation, gift certificates, or a donation of an item/s for the Holiday Gift Drive. Examples of items for donation are towels, bedding (twin size), Sweatshirts, art supplies, kitchen items, hats, mittens and gloves, scarves, gift cards to grocery stores and supermarkets and personal care items.
As, you know, developing connections is a key theme in every Bridge program. The homes we provide and the relationships we foster supply a sense of family and community that individuals we serve may not be able to form elsewhere.
Like most families, we celebrate the holidays together. This year, our goal is to get a gift to each of the more than 1,000 individuals in need that are served by The Bridge. One gift is not a lot, in fact most of us get many more. One gift for each person, that is our goal. We would appreciate any donation that you could give us to reach our goal.

What Insurance Sales Agents Do
Insurance sales agents help insurance companies generate new business by contacting potential customers and selling one or more types of insurance. An agent explains various insurance policies and helps clients choose plans that suit them.
Work Environment
Although most insurance sales agents work for insurance brokerages selling the policies of several companies, some work directly for a single insurance company. Most insurance sales agents work in offices, although some may spend much of their time traveling to meet with clients.
How to Become an Insurance Sales Agent
Although many employers require agents to have a high school diploma, more than one-third of insurance sales agents have a bachelor's degree. Agents must be licensed in the states where they work.
The median annual wage of insurance sales agents was $46,770 in May 2010. Many sales agents are paid through commissions rather than a fixed salary.
Job Outlook
Employment of insurance sales agents is projected to grow 22 percent from 2010 to 2020, faster than the average for all occupations. An aging population and changes in federal regulation should increase demand for agents who sell health and long-term care insurance.

Zeschuk on BioWare and Mythic – "We're not merged at all"
BioWare co-head Greg Zeschuk has told Eurogamer that BioWare and Mythic are still two different entities, despite being pulled together into one EA group under Ray Muzyka's leadership.
"There absolutely is still BioWare and Mythic, we're not merged at all," he said, speaking in London last week.
"That's kind of how it all works. Ray and I, we've never operated by telling people what to do, that's one of the reasons why we have great games: we don't tell our team how to build Dragon Age. We say, 'Here are the goals,' and they go and figure out how they want it to work."
It was announced last month that Mythic boss Mark Jacobs would be departing the developer, and that Muzyka would be assuming control of the new division.

Mark Jacobs bids adieu to fans and Mythic
Mark Jacobs has written a farewell of sorts to fans and former colleagues via his blog, Games are a Niche Market.
The former head of Mythic explains his departure and talks a bit about the changes at the company he co-founded with Rob Denton.
"Early in May, Electronic Arts let me know that they wanted to make some changes within the Games Label and as a result of those changes I have been out of the office (and out of touch with the team, game, etc.) since that day," he wrote.
"If you are looking or expecting me to damn EA or anyone there, you will be sorely disappointed. Over my 23 years of making games professionally I have refrained from attacking the competition, former and/or current partners, other game developers, etc. except on a few very rare instances.
"I have no intention of breaking with tradition at the present time and I hope my track record in this regard remains unchanged for the rest of my career."

Mythic staffers "shocked" at Jacobs' departure
Mythic staff are apparently reeling from the news that company boss Mark Jacobs has left the building.
"People are shocked and in disbelief about Mark leaving," a former employee told Massively.
"But they're also excited to be working with BioWare. I can't even fathom Mark leaving a company he loved so much, it was his life.
"Personally, I can't see that this is voluntary in any shape or form."
It was announced last night that Jacobs had left the company, with BioWare bosses Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk now in control of a newly-formed MMO-RPG EA group.
Heavy stuff. Check Massively for more.

ELIZABETHTOWN - A former employee of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Vocational Rehabilitation Division in Bladen County pleaded guilty to two counts of felony obtaining property by false pretense.
Sandra Anderson Baldwin, of the 100 block of McKay Street in Elizabethtown, pleaded Nov. 5, District Attorney Jon David said Friday.
Baldwin was charged after a probe by the State Bureau of Investigation. David said Baldwin misappropriated $17,379.50 between August 2009 and June 2010 and used her access to the division's computer system to alter and falsify case records.
Baldwin was sentenced to two suspended consecutive terms of a minimum of six months in the North Carolina Department of Public Safety Division of Adult Correction, David said. She was placed on supervised probation for 60 months and will pay restitution.

One True Saxon
One True Saxon is one of the newer brands to hit the screens of online designer clothing retailer Mainline Menswear. This superb brand is Britishness personified and was founded by, in their words, a couple of ordinary blokes that were obsessed with decent clothing. They are one of very few British brands that aren't led by trends, they like to set their own, but also stick to a timeless and classic style and produced some really quality clothes. The clothing range is quite highly sought after in the UK and is just beginning to make its name across the pond in USA, especially New York where the British style of clothing is being adopted by many. Arriving for this season the One True Saxon clothing collection will be carrying some superb graphical t shirts including some amazing polo shirts and long sleeve polo shirts, that carry the embroidered One True Saxon logo - the dog.
Alongside their logo carrying t shirts and tops there is the usual One True Saxon range of knitwear and outerwear that feature bright colours, technical fabrics and quilted designs, perfect for the chilly days out and about. Also available in the outerwear vintage jackets and coats section are the wax jackets, harrington jacket, nylon zip through jacket, parka and rain mac all with One True Saxon quality and branding. The signature knitwear varies from season to season dependent on weather but the khaki cardigan is set to be big this year alongside the sweatshirts, v neck jumpers and hooded zip tops that are all made of the finest cotton or wool. Another key area of One True Saxon is the range of denims and jeans, and not forgetting the current super trendy trouser a pair of beige chinos. The summer also sees a great range of smart shorts with superb detailing around the pockets, waistband and signature logo. The jeans have been around for a fair few years now and the popularity of the washes and denims has never diminished.
The One True Saxon range continues to grow year after year and with more interest in the brand comes more clothing and accessories with shoes, boots and footwear just starting to take off. These smart yet casual pieces are a brilliant addition to any outfit and will work in many situations and are a move away from sporty trainers. Newer on the scene are the additional lifestyle bits and pieces such as gloves, hats, eyewear and glasses, the summer bucket hat, cap, wallet and everyday pairs of socks. So right from the tip of Aberdeen, through Leeds, Nottingham and down past London One True Saxon is a British brand for the British designer menswear fan that is past the Lyle and Scott and wants something that little bit more. The sale will kick in after the first season, with superb discounted clothing, clearance and discount codes available.
Why not visit the One True Saxon outlet on Mainline Menswear's website and review the latest clothing range, or why not check Facebook first and find out more info and see who is talking about the brand? British Boxer Carl Froch is as he is sponsored by the One True Saxon clothing brand.

Conditions of Use
A nonfiction topic that I like is animals. I like penguins and monkeys because they are my favorite animals. I know that penguins live in the South Pole and eat fish thier preditors are usually seal. I know that monkeys usually live in jungles and eat bananas. I also would like to learn about the coral reefs beacause I like the beach and I think sea animals are really cool. I know that most of the animals that live in the coral reefs have gills because they live under water but, the animals who breath in water usually stay close to surface to they can get air. Those are the nonfiction topics I like.

Top 10 Must Read eLearning Blogs
Published in
There are hundreds of eLearning blogs at the eLearning universe. The truth is that the most of them are waste of time. However, there are some eLearning blogs that worth to spend time and read remarkable eLearning articles.

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
C A+F Campus Strictness: The BCPD is generally forgiving on regular Fridays or Saturdays, but on game days control is needed. When the general public comes to the campus strictness is increased. My freshman year RAs was pretty strict. Any night thursday-sunday if you were loud they would definitely say something to you, and even if you weren't you'd probably get a sassy comment anyways.
C A+F Guys & Girls: The guys at BC are generally very attractive. Whenever we go off campus we always question why we didn't stay in the "land of short walks and hot jocks."
C A+F Drug Safety: Drinking at BC is up to you. If you want to drink alcohol is accessible. If you don't, thats fine too. There are always non alcohol related events on campus, and the city is at your fingertips. If you do like to drink, you'll be with the majority here on campus. Most students take the work hard play hard mentality to heart.
F A+F Parking: There just aren't many spots. You're lucky if you get one.
C A+F Transportation: There are three T stops that are extremely accessible. The T is a bit slow, so for faster options call a cab and they will come right outside your dorm rooms. The bus works just fine, although its jam packed on friday and saturday nights and personal space becomes a figment of the imagination. Having a car on campus is nearly impossible unless you are a senior.
F A+F Greek Life: There isn't greek life at BC. Since this is a Jesuit institution it is not allowed. We have the "BC Fake Frat" in which case a bunch of guys live off campus in a house, throw parties wearing bow ties, and state their "dominance over the pledges" but most students look at this as one of the biggest jokes around.
B A+F Health & Safety: BC health and safety gets great reviews. The police are always on campus if needed they will assist you nearly immediately. Also, we have Eagle escorts, so that you don't have to walk alone, or if you feel unsafe somewhere they will pick you up and bring you to where you would like to be. Walking inside the campus gates at night I feel extremely safe, but outside it there is little foot traffic and little lighting, so nightly runs are only done with a buddy, even though the surrounding area is safe.
B A+F Weather: The weather at BC is great if you like New England weather! I mean we don't have palm trees or sandy beaches, but for New Englanders we expect he rain, snow, and sleet. Get yourself a nice raincoat and boots, a heavy winter jacket with the thermal accessories and you'll be fine.
C A+F Diversity: I would say that the student body as a whole is very accepting of minorities, but the minorities tend to join clubs regarding their ethnicity, and then the majority of friends stem from that group, creating some not-so-diverse friend groups.
C A+F Campus Housing: I could not say anything better about campus living and classes. The campus itself is small, but if you live on Upper your freshman year, it'll take you 5-7 minutes to reach any of your classes. Its wonderful when you are running late. The housing lottery is a bit of a challenge, and if you don't get scholarship here, expect that you will be missing a year of housing as well. The dorms are definitely small, with a lot of regulations. The nice part is there isn't really a "check in" system sos guests can visit without a hassle. On the flip side you are always in close proximity to an RA. Some are great, some are not, but that will be the same anywhere.
C A+F Campus Dining: The food itself does not taste bad, but the options are so mundane. There are always specials, and usually they are ethnic. Sushi comes about once every week and a half, they cook Chinese, Indian, traditional Hispanic, and Mexican food. If you're looking from a health standpoint you're not going to want to touch these options. Your best best is to stick to the salad bar, grilled chicken, or salmon… every…single…night. Late night options will service you until 2 am, but everything is a heart attack on a plate: chicken tenders, fries, mozzarella sticks, fries, onion rings, fries, milkshakes, and fries. We swipe for every single you buy, its not a "swipe an eat all you want" meal plan, so watch your budget!
C A+F Majors: I am a communications major her at BC. I signed up mostly because I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do with my life. For every program at BC there are core classes that must be taken. Sometimes you get lucky with pick times and can snag an absolutely fabulous professor. In that case congratulations, and enjoy your semester. If not, theres a great chance you will get stuck with someone who is dull. The concept of the class is the same, but the passion won't be there. Facilities are extremely nice for com majors, and I would assume almost all majors. BC puts great effort into its overall "look."
C A+F Majors: We have been told numerous times that graduating with a BC degree will do us wonders in the real world. As far as choosing a major, take into account that switching is easy IF you are in the SAME school. Don't plan on signing up for a major in A & S and being able to become a teacher or businessman or nurse if you change your mind in the middle of freshman year. Take thoughts about majors seriously before applying, and if you have any inclination to be in business apply to CSOM. IF you get in to CSOM, you can transfer to A&S or Lynch. If you start in A & S there is a struggle to do anything out of that particular school.
D A+F Scholarships: I applied for both financial aid and scholarships. I feel like at BC you get enormous scholarships or little to none. The latter being more likely.
B A+F Off-Campus Dining: The off campus dining at BC is great, the city of Boston is at your fingertips. We have some good local restaurants closer to newton (a walk or bus ride away) but you can get anywhere in the city via the T, and Newbury Street is just a half hour T ride away.
Scholarships: I did not apply for financial aid.
B A+F Campus Strictness: Easy to get caught, hard to really get in trouble. BCPD will love to catch you doing something wrong, but you really have to be rude to them or be doing something bad to get in serious trouble. Most of the time they will just tell you to go back to your room.
D A+F Diversity: But it is a Catholic school so it is sort of understandable and BC is very aware and doing a lot to improve it.
A A+F Academics: Research assistant as a freshman.
A A+F Academics: Amazing liberal arts education, manageable, competitive, incredible professors.
C A+F Drug Safety: It's visible, people smoke a lot, especially freshmen guys it seems, but plenty of people do not partake.
C A+F Drug Safety: I think the drug scene here depends who your friends are and who you are. Overall, not very present.
Greek Life: We don't have any greek life at all at BC. It's not allowed.
Parking: I don't own a car. I know that parking is expensive, but you can usually find a place. However, I'm not very knowledgable about parking.
A A+F Transportation: The BC bus is running almost at all times. I've never had a problem getting where I need to go.

Sorry, there are no reviews.

The general feeling seems to be that Boston College is a wonderful school and an incredible experience. However, the first few years can be tough, as you may not be prepared for the enormity of the college experience. If you're from a very diverse high school, you will certainly be shocked at the very different atmosphere that will surround you at BC. Furthermore, so many of your peers can appear like they're having the time of their lives, and you might feel like you're faking it, especially at first. Yet, staying the course is absolutely worth it, as Boston College is a wonderful institution with many dynamic people who will truly challenge and amaze you. If you give the school a little time to grow on you, it certainly will and you'll be really glad you gave it a chance.
Also keep in mind that while parties and tailgates are enjoyable, they are not the only things college life is about. Yes, you want to have fun, and you will once you get to know people a little better, but there are other reasons you came here. Remember that you are going to college to receive an exceptional college education, and Boston College will certainly deliver that and then some. Friendships flourish, enriching academics abound, and you'll walk away a changed person.

More Koi & Our New Doggles from Lucy's Dog House
First off, we forgot to tag 3 pals yesterday when we showed our pictures for the sleeping upside down tag game. So here is who we tag:
Maggie #2
Ben Ben
Have fun posting your pics pals!
We have a few more koi to post tonight. We're getting down to the bottom, but a few still won't show their faces well for the camera. One good thing, Mama found out she has more young koi that she never saw before until today! That means we can name more after our pals. We have some doggies waiting on the list, so some of you will now have a koi named after you.
First of all, Mama finally got Oscar to show his face for the camera:
Oscar is with Ice T, one of our biggest females.
This is Bella: Metallic Light Lemon Yellow with Silver eding on scales.
Oooooh, I've got to catch that piece of food:
This is Pippa: Metallic Orange with Metallic Black Pattern. Picture is a bit wobbly cause the water was moving fast.
This is Kaylie: Metallic Peach with Silver Edging on Scales. The sun was too bright on this picture so the peach doesn't look quite right. (looks too yellow in this picture)
We'll keep trying to get better pictures of Pippa & Kaylie. We still have Teka, TinTin, Wally & Luckie to photograph and Charlotte & Charlie are on the list for some of our other koi we found.
Guess what the UPS man brought us the other day??? DOGGLES! Yep, we now each have a pair of Doggles. We received our Doggles from Hans & Lucy at Lucy's Dog House. Check these out, they are way cool:
I Butchy have the Red pair with smoke lenses.
Snickers has the Pink frames with pink lenses. Doesn't she look hot??? hehehehe.
See how they attach to your head? One strap goes behind the ears & one goes under the chin. They stay on really well.
Snickers: Ok, I'm ready to go to the beach.....
Mama was impressed cause we even leave them on. She does have to push up our eyebrows out of the way while putting them on, but they fit great. Both straps are adjustable too. So if you need some cool eye wear to keep the hot summer sun out of your eyes, go to Lucy's Dog House & get a pair of Doggles. They also come in a few other colors. Guess we better go help Mama. She is making doggie clothes for an order and we need to supervise the cutting of material.
Wirey Hugs!
Butchy & Snickers

Comment: Re:A fine example of the problem (Score 1) 670
Our food changed sometime in the '70s or '80s. When I was a kid, overweight people were rather rare. Has the "modern" diet gotten us addicted when we're kids -- and still very active -- to foods that we should be eating very sparingly which then cause huge weight gains when we continue to eat them after we reach our early twenties and our post education lifestyle
The other problem is that people of prior generations were expected to be able to deal with their own emotions in a mature manner and generally weren't as stressed-out as Americans today are.

Google today is "taking a stand on open source and patents," vowing not to sue anyone on specified patents unless first attacked.

World's Richest People - 2012 Edition
Filed under: Celebs & Money
Bloomberg Markets has just unveiled its latest list of the world's richest people, revealing that the wealthiest 200 are worth a collective $2.7 trillion - more than France's annual GDP. According to Bloomberg, the real story of the top 10 is Amancio Ortega, of Spain. "Nobody racked up billions faster than relatively unknown No. 3, Amancio Ortega of Spain. The 76-year-old founded Inditex SA, the world's largest clothing retailer, which is known for its more than 1,600 trendy Zara stores. He made more than $18 billion from the start of the year through Oct. 5 -- or about $66 million a day. That windfall was more than enough for the Spanish tycoon to eclipse Buffett -- who's now No. 4, with $48.4 billion as of Oct. 5."

30 July 2009
Caerphilly County Borough Council is celebrating the success of one of its flagship parks with the announcement of Green Flag Award status being awarded to Waunfawr Park in Crosskeys.
The park, which boasts bowling, cricket, football and rugby facilities, as well as a Multi Use Games Area and local cycle route, was selected for the award having been deemed by the judges to be welcoming, clean and well maintained, with the support and involvement of the local community.
Cabinet member for the environment, Cllr Lyn Ackerman said, "The fact that Waunfawr Park has been granted this prestigious award is testimony to the hard work that has and will continue to take place to maintain the park's excellence and beauty.
My congratulations and thanks go not only to officers whose job it is to keep the park well maintained, but also to the many volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure that Waunfawr Park and indeed other parks and open spaces throughout the Caerphilly county borough are welcoming and attractive places to visit."
The park, which welcomes thousands of visitors each year, also boasts an impressive community garden/forest school, which provides an active learning environment for its many users, which include Waunfawr Primary School and Brooklands Day Centre.
The community garden also features a large greenhouse, allotment plots, a wildlife pond, various raised flower planters and barbecue facilities. Caerphilly County Borough Council have also recently installed the Gold medal winning show garden that was displayed at the 2007 RHS show in Cardiff.
The Green Flag Award is a national standard for parks and green spaces in England and Wales. The award scheme began in 1996 as a means of recognising and rewarding the best green spaces in the country. It was also seen as a way of encouraging others to achieve the same high environmental standards, creating a benchmark of excellence in recreational green areas.
Further information can be found on the Green Flag Award website.

Unflinching Portraits of Pearl Harbor Survivors
Seventy years after the day that lives on in infamy, the soldiers stationed at Pearl Harbor recall their experiences
- By Megan Gambino
- Photo research by Brendan McCabe
- Smithsonian.com, December 05, 2011
(Marco Garcia / Wonderful Machine)
Startled awake by thunderous explosions, Earl Smith (above) scrambled up a ladder to the deck of the USS Tennessee. He slipped and chipped a tooth in the process but made it to his post in the gunnery department.
After the battle, Smith swam among burning oil slicks in an attempt to rescue men from the water. But he doesn't remember finding anyone alive. He tied ropes to the ankles of the bodies so they could be pulled from the water. "That was his task," says Garcia. "He has a macho veneer. But he more or less said it was like a horror movie." As Garcia photographed him, Smith pointed out scars covering his arms. The square-chinned seaman is a "tough guy," says Garcia, but to this day he still cannot shake the smell of burning flesh.
Comments (19) |
When Pearl Harbor was attacked, my father had an aunt whose son,Jimmy Cannon, was an Air Force navigator in the Pacific. Through his own research, my oldest son has contacted the pilot of the plane that Jimmy gave his life to save. He also has discovered that because Jimmy was the first American military man to be buried on Australian soil, they there was no official American flag for the burial ceremony. Not wishing to do any less for this young GI than they would their own, the Australian women designed a red, white and blue American flag to cover his coffin. Though I was a child at the time, I recall reading an article in a magazine (I believe it was "The Cosmopolitan".) which described young Jimmy Cannon's bravery and valor.

I am a niece of two Cattanach that survived the attack on Pearl Harbor. Bothers, both inb the U.S. Navy. They both have passed away. Their names were: Robert Cattanach and James Cattanach. I would like to know what ship(s) they were on and if the ship(s) were attacked by Japan. Any information would be helpful. Thank you, email@example.com

my father, Clyde R. Church, ( deceased as of September, 2009) was 20 when Pearl Harbor was bombed. He said he was heading for the mess hall to have breakfast. He and his buddies thought it was manuevers at first but it didn't take long to figure out it was the "real thing" and that they were being attacked. I have many pictures my dad left me of his time in Pearl harbor, they are priceless.
Posted by Denise K. Chadwick on December 16,2011 | 01:52 AM
This is in response to the comment made by Agnes Chagnon above. She wonders what ship her cousin, Joseph Chagnon, was on when he died at Pearl Harbor. According to this website, http://www.usswestvirginia.org/ph/phlistalpha.php?firstletter=C, a Sgt. Joseph J. Chagnon of the U.S. Army died at Hickam Field, the Army air field next to Pearl Harbor. Although most of the casualties were naval personnel, there were numerous Army deaths. Regardless, we should never forgot these brave men and women.
Posted by Bill Spaniel on December 15,2011 | 03:47 PM
My 1st cousin joseph Chagnon, was killed at pearl harbor. I was eight years old at the time. The family members lived on east 97th. st new york city, at that time. I never forgot the grief that followed. I remember the picture that was posted in life magazine, He was only 20yrs old. All of his immediate family are dead, most of my own family are also dead Did any one know him? can anyone tell me what ship he was on? thank you for any info you may be able to provide.

Its beyond me, the photographer, to think I would move so many people with this project. I graciously thank everyone who has seen this and has been stirred by this project. I am continuing in the next few days with another batch of survivors from Pearl Harbor and hopefully, the public will be able to enjoy this next set of portraits as well.
Thank you,

One of my aunts was in her apartment on Hawaii and hid under the kitchen table with her young daughter as the bombs fell. Her husband Pat McIntyre was later killed in the Pacific, he was a pilot and is mentioned in the book "Queens Die Proudly"
We cannot give enough thanks to all those men and women who served during that day, December 7th 1941 we owe them more than we can imagine. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DID DURING WWII.
Posted by Herman Jeroue on December 8,2011 | 01:21 PM
I was one of the lucky ones. I was in college when Pearl Harbor was attacked. I was allowed to finish in 1943 and was deferred until 1945 because I was the only engineer left at B.F.Goodrich by two Presidential appeals. I was finally draftedin August of 1945 because I was no longer essential. I went into the Navy and was discharged with enough points in 1946. I have a few regrets that I didn't get into the real fighting, but by the same token I feel real,real lucky.
Posted by Donald J> Haack on December 7,2011 | 12:35 AM
Mr. Garcia, thank you for taking this project upon yourself. Too many people forget the sacrifices made by our men and women in uniform during the past wars and conflicts. No one did this with the survivors of World War I and now they are gone. It is important to record everything about this era. I hope that while you are photographing them, that you are also video recording them for posterity. (You know... you might be able to get a grant from the Archives or Library of Congress to help get more of this done.)
Posted by Debi on December 7,2011 | 11:06 PM
What a great and tragic story these men have told. Thank you for your service. My father was a veteran of WWII also. I know the profound effect it had on him. My parent's stories were like those of the rest of that generation. It truly was a day that changed their life and remained in their memories always. Mr. Garcia thank you for helping us remember these heroic people and their stories.
Posted by Jane Wroblewski on December 7,2011 | 10:28 PM
A very timely piece about a period in our history that deserves to be remembered in its entirety. "At Dawn We Slept" was aptly titled. A time of mis-information and non-information lead to Pearl Harbor. WE must be sure those who follow us learn all they can so that THEY may avoid this situation in the future.
BTW, a bomb not a torpedo fell on USS ARIZONA.
Posted by Mark W Maxwell on December 7,2011 | 10:00 PM
Correction, Mr. Reynolds. You earned the right for ALL Americans to criticize these failings. And for that, we thank you.
Posted by Matthew Mills on December 7,2011 | 08:28 PM
I know that was a terrable time in our nation. I was nine-years old. I hate to get political but, we were an isolationest nation at that time, led there by F.D.R We are now being led there again by our current so-called leader. I hope everyone will consider that in November, 2012.
