It is a warm September day and the Physics teacher runs over and tells me to turn on the TV. Someone has attacked the twin towers in New York. Iowa is far from New York yet we knew about the twin towers and we knew this would be an event that would define this generation. We watched in horror.

We are a few weeks away from the anniversary of what has become the darkest day in the history of our nation. September 11, 2011 will mark the tenth anniversary of the day that terrorists used our own commercial aircraft against us in a storm of carnage that took down the World Trade Center towers, damaged the Pentagon and changed the way we operate in this country forever. Before 9/11 Americans functioned under a veil of freedom that we took for granted; exercising our civil rights and parading our liberties without thought or question. |

I recently had a friend ask me what advice I would give
someone who was just starting out in geocaching, a high-tech treasure hunt game
I have referred to in past blogs and articles. I thought for a while, and also asked other geocachers I
know, and I came up with this Top Ten List. I thought I’d share it here as well. |

It comes as no surprise to students who are or were ever a part of a school choir; singing has always been cool. The success of the hit television show “Glee”, which has refocused the national spotlight on school music programs, has only served to reinforce the charm found in band, choir and chorus groups throughout the country. At John Burroughs High School in Burbank, California, the “Powerhouse” glee club and choral teacher Brendan Jennings are the real life inspiration behind the hit show. The set for the show was crafted based on the actual band room at Burroughs High School where the pilot was filmed. |
