September 11th

Every public school will observe a moment of silence on 9/11, according to a new law in New York State.

In the days following September 11th, we swore that we would never forget. But, have we?

In the period after 9/11, emotions were running high for Americans. The sentiment of a nation was expressed perfectly in a special commercial produced by Anheuser Busch.

Florence Engorian was five-months-pregnant and inside the South Tower on September 11, 2001. This is her story.

Firefighters from around the Southern Tier will climb 110 stories in honor of fallen brothers who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.

Since 9/11, the TSA has made airport security stricter than we've ever seen - for good reason. Now, a few airports are going back to the way things used to be and changing who's allowed through security.

Each of these ten country songs was inspired by, or strongly associated with the events of September 11, 2001.

SUNY Broome Community College held a 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony today, including a very nice speech by President Kevin Drumm, some bagpipe music, and lowering the campus flag to half mast. It was solemn, thought-provoking, and heart felt.

During the rescue effort at ground zero after the September 11th attacks, about 300 dogs were sent in, both to search and to cheer people up. Bretagne is believed to be the last  surviving dog.

Those of us old enough at the time to follow the news in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks will remember the haunting photo of the woman wearing a business suit and pearls; covered head to foot in white dust as she held her hands in front of her trying to make her way out of the World Trade Center's North.

Sadly, not a lot of things that happen in life surprise me anymore.  But whenever I hear of someone trying to exploit September 11th, a day that almost 3,000 people lost their lives, not to mention the thousands as a result since, I'm at a complete loss for words.
