Its past 2:00 p.m. so past lunchtime. My tummy is not grumbling yet. So here i go with one more post for the day :)
Harry Potter casts a spell tomorrow at midnight with the release of his new book - Harry Potter and the order of Phoenix - 5th book in the HP series. Hogwarts fans watch out. What a fabulous way to begin the summer with - June 21st is the first day of summer.
Now rewind to the post World War II and pre cold war era. Were you interested in History in school? I was...it was one of my favourite subjects after Maths. I hated science ..biology to be precise. Does the name"Rosenbergs" ring a bell? Rosenbergs execution on the Electric chair at Sing Sing is a gruesome yet famous incident. It happened on June the 19th , 1953. Today marks its 50th anniversary. Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were charged of espionage, deceit and betrayal. They apparently shared the documents which when decoded constitued the Manhatten Project ( don't ask me what this project was, if you have gotten this far I assume you should know it). Source : Rosenbergs Execution. Today their 2 surviving sons commemorate this day for their deceased innocent parents.
