The September 11 attacks (often referred to as 9/11) were a
series of coordinated suicide attacks by
al-Qaeda upon the United States on
September 11, 2001. On that morning,
terrorists affiliated with al-Qaeda
hijacked four commercial passenger jet
airliners. The hijackers intentionally
crashed two of the airliners into the
Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in
New York City, killing everyone on board
and many others working in the building,
causing both buildings to collapse
within two hours, destroying at least
two nearby buildings and damaging
others. The hijackers crashed a third
airliner into the Pentagon. The fourth
plane crashed into a field near
Shanksville in rural Somerset County,
Pennsylvania, after passengers and
member of the flight crew on the fourth
aircraft attempted to retake control of
their plane, which was heading for
Washington, D.C. There are no known
survivors from any of the flights. Learn

Hispanic Heritage Month is a period to
recognize the contributions of Hispanic
Americans to the United States and to
celebrate Hispanic heritage and culture.
The observation started in 1968 as
Hispanic Heritage Week under President
Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by
President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover
a 30-day period starting on September 15
and ending on October 15. It was enacted
into law on August 17, 1988 on the
approval of Public Law 100-402.
"September 15 was chosen as the starting
point for the celebration because it is
the anniversary of independence of five
Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El
Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and
Nicaragua. They all declared
independence in 1821. In addition,
Mexico and Chile celebrate their
independence days on September 16 and
September 18, respectively." |

Greening Nevada ‘Fighting Goliath’
Exciting news for our grandchildren’s futures, once
again. You can help them. In play are two important
problems here in our valley—air quality for our tourism
base industry and secondly, the mammoth struggle
beginning in what I refer to as the impending water
wars.……

We were surprised to read that Friess
agreed with Prive’s exploits against myself and that he
would take such a stance being an openly gay man in
Vegas, after seeing and reading the words on the mean
spirited hats that sources had seen worn and distributed
by club executives and staff........ |

McDonald’s, Burger King, Del Taco…fast food signs
everywhere! OK, I’ll admit to an occasional stop for a
pile of protein and grease, but while there’s a
momentary rush of instant gratification, it just doesn’t
do it for me like my grandma’s lasagna.... |

If you saw the "Bucket List", you know that one of the things on the list was to
laugh til he cried. If I had a Bucket List, I could mark that off. I laughed a
lot during this holiday but I laughed til I cried when my son took me for a
requested ride on his jet ski. I don't know why I was so overjoyed and tickled
but I laughed til I cried...... |
