Surprise snowstorm freezes Heathrow and European Christmas travel

HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 12/19/2010 – For the second day, British Airways and Virgin Atlantic and all other flights to London Heathrow airport were canceled.

HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 11/11/2009 – War is one of life’s irrational situations where most people can agree it’s wrong, yet the consequences without it can be much worse. As long as there are tyrants, and as long as there are those willing to use force of arms to oppose them, there will be wars. At least, if there’s to be freedom in this world.

Veterans Day originally had a different name and a somewhat different intention. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed an Armistice Day for November 11, 1919, as “a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as Armistice Day.” It celebrated peace, the end of WW1 a year earlier.
